If people needed proof that Democrat Angie Craig is a socialist, this article provides that proof. Craig was picked by Nancy Pelosi for a committee looking into income and wealth inequality. Rep. Jim Himes will chair the committee. Other Democrats serving on the committee are AOC, Pramila Jayapal, Marcy Kaptur, Gwen Moore, Vicente González, Angie Craig and Sara Jacobs. It isn't known at this point if Republicans will appoint members to serve on the committee. I'd recommend that Republicans ignore this committee.
During the announcement of the new committee, Ms. Pelosi said "The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself." According to Ms. Pelosi, the statement is "a comment from President Franklin Roosevelt when he established the Temporary National Economic Committee in 1938." That's anti-American because it's anti-Constitution.
The Constitution is unique in that it limits government. The Ninth Amendment states "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." The Tenth Amendment states "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
It's frightening that Pelosi thinks that the democracy is weakened when the individual is strengthened. The Constitution repeatedly states that the individual reigns supreme. Here's the entire frightening press conference:
As I said before, Jim Himes was named the chairman of the committee. He spoke about the district he represents in Connecticut. He said it's possible to go from well-manicured lawns on sprawling estates to tiny apartments of single moms. Socialism doesn't provide for a middle class. It just provides for serfs and all-powerful oligarchs.
David Ignatius wrote this:
“Rust Belt districts harmed by plant shutdowns, urban districts ravaged by racial injustice, rural districts where farmers are suffering from drought, and districts across the country where young people are struggling with debt, low-wage jobs and an uncertain future,” Ignatius wrote as a list of possible examples.
No economy lifts all people. That's never happened anywhere at any time. Milton Friedman schools the Democrats on the strengths of capitalism:
Pelosi's blueprint relies on redistribution of wealth. It doesn't focus on economic growth. Jack Kemp once famously said that a rising tide lifts all ships. Before him, JFK said the same thing. If this newly-formed committee had a similar slogan, it would be 'A slow-growing economy keeps the rich happy and everyone else miserable.' That's what we had for 8 years of Obama and 4 years of George W. Bush. That's what we're heading for with Pelosi's blueprint.
That's why Republicans should refuse to participate in the committee. Nothing good will come of it. Meanwhile, Angie Craig is part of a committee of socialists aiming at redistributing other people's wealth.
If its purpose is to redistribute wealth, it's a socialist committee. With Democrats, the only difference between their moderates and the AOC wing is whether they'll proudly proclaim that they're socialists or if they'll hide their love of redistributionism.
Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
