WTF does all that mean?

I care very much about rights and the Constitution.

I don't hate any people.

But I do hate the words and actions of people who deny others the rights given them by the Constitution.

Gov. Walz: “You can’t appease authoritarianism.

You have to call that crap out.”

Another thing he said (paraphrasing here) is to be proud of good things you are doing.

Be proud of helping others.

Be proud that you care for the environment.

Be proud you want healthcare for all.

And the left isn't complaining about Constitutional rights at all, because they can't profit politically from it. You don't care about rights or the Constitution, just making the people you love better off at the expense of the people you hate.

Donald Trump is presiding over the worst stock market during a president’s first 100 days since Richard Nixon’s abbreviated second term. But what happens next?

Through April 28, the S&P 500 was down 7.8% since Trump’s inauguration. April 29 will be the 100th day of Trump’s presidency. The last time the stock market performed this poorly was under Nixon in 1973 when the S&P 500 tumbled nearly 10% in his first 100 days.

Trump’s First 100 Days Were the Worst for Stocks Since Nixon. What History Says Happens Next.

probably the greatest 100 days ever for any president. Of course its not perfect but he's killing it.

I've often said we don't need to panic about worst case scenarios or thin edge of the wedge fears when it comes to social movements.

One side gets too extreme, then the other end reacts and pushes back. Usually bringing us back to a centrist path in the end.

Neo-leftists pushing extreme versions of equality and diversity policies went too far and created the MAGA movement as the push back.

I think the people are gradually finding that they don't like extremes of either "dogma".

I'm hopeful that it is actually happening more quickly than would normally be expected. So we can all hold hands, sing kumbaya and be friends with all of our neighbours again.

The problem is this isn’t a worst case scenario, many prominent democrats, like Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden have called for this.

In America’s Congress, we have the House and Senate. The Senate has 2 members from each state for 100 total. There’s a thing called a filibuster, which means outside a limited number of times and issues, you can’t vote on legislation until 60% agree to hold the vote. This keeps power in check, since there’s only been a few years out of the last half century that any party has had 60%.

The democrats, led by President Barack Obama, have explicitly stated that when they get power in the Senate again, they will eliminate the filibuster. That means that a small House majority with a 50-50 + Vice President vote and the presidency will give the democrats unchecked, absolute power for 2 years.

The democrats have also said that with that power, they will begin adding states to the country, simply because they are overwhelmingly democratic, and will give the democrats more power. They’ve said they will pack the courts, turning one of 3 branches of government into an arm of the Democratic Party. They’ve said they will grant blanket amnesty and a pathway to citizenship for everyone here illegally, despite those people flouting the due process set up when coming to America. They’ve run people on presidential tickets who have called for what they deem to be hate speech or misinformation to be criminalized, they’ve nominated people for the Senate that think churches should be stripped of tax-exempt status if their dogma contradicts the democrat party’s platform, and they routinely claim no Constitutional rights are absolute.

Despite this, democrats are pretending to be outraged that someone who came here illegally has been expelled from the country, claiming his due process rights were violated. I’m just pointing out the obvious, when they eagerly want to implement the above and are doing things like in the video I posted, they clearly don’t care about due process or any other Constitutional right, and need to be kept from power by all means.

The problem is that we have the democrat party in America and that is party dogma. President Biden less than 3 years ago said that no Constitutional rights are absolute, and that would include our due process rights.

That's equally true of the extremists on both sides Josh. And it's become worn out for the majority now I think.

Thankfully more and more people have calmed down and are flooding back to join the sensible centrists, so this angry experiment should be over in the not too distant.

Of course.

I have a real hard time buying that wealth dropped in a straight line like that, especially when the top rates were in the single digits or the 20s. That alone should destroy your point. It also lines up with what happened when men stopped being drafted into the military, and the big spikes tend to be under democrat presidents when the Fed had comparatively low interest rates and QE.
