And to punish us with higher prices for everything – hoping that we then turn to Government to “solve” the problem they’ve caused. Big chuckles all-around within the Democrat circles over that.
“we don’t have a misinformation problem, we have a trust problem.” (H/T: Axios)
Yep, not my President. And I have no problem in stating that – after all, the Democrats “The Resistance” have been yammering about this for the last four years. We’re just using your new Rules so get used to it.

Congress has pumped $23.7 billion into Orion for that single flight.
How do couples meet these days? Everyone knows that meeting online is much more common now than it was … well … before there was an online. But I did not realize until I saw this chart that there had been such a sharp uptick since 2000 in meeting in a bar or a restaurant. … Read more

Being so immersed in what the Left believes, sometimes it’s hard to keep perspective on things. For this, WHEW! Reformatted, emphasis mine: A new poll by The Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports finds that a vast majority of likely voters prefer a free-market economic system over a socialist economic system. When asked on December 6-7, “Which … Read more
From Strategy Page:
American intel estimates of Chinese naval power believe the Chinese fleet is now larger than the United States fleet of 293 major warships. The U.S. Navy still has a considerable edge in tonnage, manpower, firepower and experience.
It has not been a good year for the gun control crowd. It’s actually been a very bad year. Firearm Sales in 2020 are head and shoulders above the previous …19 years!

From Rassmussen Polls – Gallup: 83% of Americans think the Media is biased.

Blue Wave! Blue Wave! Blue…..just wave it goodbye. No, I’m not impressed. And a whole lot of other people haven’t been either. Things got tighter in the Prez race and the GOP was supposed to lose the Senate by several seats?
