Are we on the outskirts of a depression economy? The Thanksgiving weekend is traditionally when hordes of shoppers descend on retail outlets looking for the right gift at the right price. Stores open early for bargain hunters. Parking lots are overflowing. That did not happen this year.
Joe Biden on Monday called on Congress to avert a rail strike after the largest railroad union rejected a labor deal last week. A nationwide rail strike now looms as a stronger possibility. Union leaders were for the pact. The members not so much. I wonder who got bought off?
The Davos crowd (that would be the WEF and other such “woke” outfits) has decided that Great Britain should pay “climate change reparations” for all the damage that Great Britain has caused the world by the Industrial Revolution. Rashid Sanook (or Rishi Sunak if you aren’t President Biden), the new, unelected British Prime Minister, has kicked off the COP27 summit by leaking such a ridiculous idea to the press. Let’s remember that Sunak was installed as Prime Minister because the WEF did not care for the previous one.
The mid-terms drag on as the Democrats try to steal more seats in the House with mysterious ballot drops in the middle of the night just as happened in 2020. Most of the elite Republicans seem clueless as to what is going on. This is what PDJT has been fighting all these years.
In the meantime, since the election is over, the multinationals have decided it is safe to admit there is a recession going on. The average American knew this for months. However, the narrative engineers could not permit this to be officially admitted before the elections.
Don Surber had a couple of interesting articles recently. In one he noted that the Ukrainian war was a foregone conclusion once the coup had been successfully navigated. Why? Because crooks always pay off their benefactors (and keep some for themselves). In the other Don talks about panic within the ranks of the Democrats over the impending elections. These two issues are inextricably tied together.
NBC’s Chuck Todd went on TV Sunday morning to tout the results of a recent NBC poll. According to their poll, it is dead even on who will control Congress in 2023. And the biggest issue with voters? The threat to democracy.
John Fetterman, also known as Uncle Fester, released a note from his doctor that he is cleared to perform all duties in the US Senate. The note said Fetterman spoke intelligently without cognitive deficits. His speech was normal. Hmmm.
Former President Barack Obama is traveling to Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin this month to stump for Democratic candidates in the weeks before the midterm elections.
First, on Oct. 28, he heads to Atlanta to hustle votes for election denier Stacey Abrams, who is making another run against incumbent rival Gov. Brian Kemp. Obama will also try to persuade people that Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock should receive their vote. Warnock is facing off against former professional football star Herschel Walker.
“Hot, Hot, Hot” is the mantra that we keep hearing from the financial pundits. Despite the valiant efforts of the Fed, the economy continues to have inflation woes. The financial and business media call the continued rise of consumer inflation “unexpected.”
A new video from the World Economic Forum (WEF) puts forward the theory that economic growth must be stopped. That we cannot “save the planet” if we allow unbridled growth free rein.
