Lorts, if the Dominion info is correct I condem those who lied for it. However, until I see those emails/text I don't know, varify. Your amazed how so many Republicans still support Trump, I don't support him. I am amazed how the  House, Senate democrats and Crat votes support or ignor without question all the proven lies and unethical actions and in actions by the DOJ, FBI  and lock step followers of the feckless "leader", really?

Bill,

Just google Dominion law suit. Have you always thought that the FBI and DOJ were corrupt or did that mistrust begin in 2015?

Greg,

Lets say that only 3000 people can get $35 insulin. That would be 3000 more people getting a great discount than before Biden passed this bill. I remember back in 2012 a number of Republicans were elected to get rid of Obama-care. They just needed to find a replacement which they couldn't accomplish. Now millions of people have health insurance that wouldn't have it without Obama-care. Prior to Obama-care both parties only talked about it. Obama made it happen.

A couple St.Patrick's Day Irish jokes--1. The divorce court Judge says, "Mr. Kelley, I have reviewed this Case very carefully and I have decided to give your Wife 775 pounds a week!"  Mr. Kelley says, "That's very fair your Honor, and every now and then I will try to send her a few quid myself!"   2. Two Irishmen are hammering floorboards down in a house.  Paddy picks up a nail and realizing it's upside down throws it away.  Murphy catches him doing this and asks why he's throwing them away.  Paddy says, "Because they're upside down!"  Murphy says, "You daft twat, Save 'em for the ceiling!"  Remember, tonight is "Amateur Night", there will be a bunch of people out there that can't handle their green beer!

"A FREE AND FAIR ELECTION" Wow! When was the last time we saw one of those? FOX News lies? How about the Russian collusion and the pee-pee tapes? How about the false accusation of Trump colluding with Ukraine's President Zelinski, leading to a falsified impeachment trial? Then there are the lies that the Leftist News perpetuates about Trump instigating an 'insurrection' at the Capitol. And it never ends. TDS abounds in America. And anyone with an ounce of sense knows that when Trump asked to FIND votes in Georgia, he meant to find the illegal votes, of which there were many. And there is evidence of the Dominion machines losing votes and switching votes, all in Biden's favor. 

FOLLOW THE MONEY:

Follow the money from China to Hunter and to the Biden crime syndicate. Follow the money from China to Penn State and the office they gave Biden to hide his classified documents and share with his family and a Chinese official that put Biden in Xi's back pocket. Follow the money from people like George Soros, who donated billions to left-wing prosecutors who refuse to enforce the laws. 

This country cannot withstand another four years of far-left Communist dictatorship. If that happens, there may be no turning back. As I have said before, I will wait for the entire Republican presidential candidates to play out and listen to their speeches and debates before deciding who to vote for. But until that time, I am still in Trump's camp.  

Mike Lorts

Greg,

I thought you insinuated that Biden should have included everyone in the $35 insulin program rather than just Medicare Advantage members. I agree that should happen but won't because the House would never approve the expense.

On the subject of healthcare. If I compare healthcare to machinery maintenance. It is much cheaper to properly maintain equipment rather than repair the equipment. I have always proposed using a carrot and stick approach to healthcare. If we start with a "0" cost basis for everyone living a healthy life and add to the monthly cost if they smoke, drink in excess, don't perform minimal exercise and are overweight. These same guidelines apply to life insurance.

Jim Coats

Mr. Lorts.  You keep harping on subjects that appear on my Don't Give a Crap list.  If you care to know what I do give a crap about, please read my posts and the posts of all the other conservatives on this site who are truly.....I say TRULY concerned about the fate of this country and who have time after time, laid out a list of all the issues they ARE concerned about.  Any more Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) posts from you will not receive a response from this conservative.  I'm tired of your B.S.

To all:  I'm with DeWitt right now.  I WILL wait until the primary shakes out and see the list of Republicans running for President before I make my final decision.  Any other stance would be....well....ignorant.  As I have said many times, IF Trump is the nominee again, I WILL vote for him.....which will partially be a vote AGAINST ANY Liberal/Democrat.  After seeing the past 20 years play out, there is NO Democrat on the planet I would vote for because the democrat/liberal doctrine is too toxic for me.

You have seen my "Closer" for some time now:

(S)ECURE THE BORDER!!

(A)MERICA FIRST!!

(F)OLLOW THE MONEY!!

(E)NFORCE THE LAW!!

To save time, that "Closer" will now be displayed as the acronym SAFE.  Fitting, no?

Mike Lorts

Jim,

You really are full of yourself! What makes you think I am responding only to you.

On the Insulin controversy, It seems to me Trump had gotten that price down with Legislation that both Democrats and Republicans had actually backed W'OW BIPARTISAN that called for American Pharmaceutical Companies conform their pricing with the European Markets. Then, Senator Manchin's daughter inherited an Insulin Manufacturing Company and ZOOM up went the price in Insulin again. Of course, Middle of the Road Manchin never addressed the issue ho hum so much for Manchin.

It appears that the Biden Family or Crime Syndicate has now become firmly ensconced in a network of unexplainaable BIG BUCKS FOR INFLUENCE PEDDLING contributions from the Red Chinese, but as a member of the extended Biden Defense Team otherwise known as the Mainstream Media and the DNC have grunted out "So what, Influence Peddling is not a Crime" and right they are, but when the information is backed up by supporting SECRETED DOCUMENTS HIDDEN FOR YEARS IN FIVE DIFFERENT PLACES AND A "STRAY LAPTOP" THEN IT BECOMES MORE ODORIFEROUS AS "TREASON" What say you now LORTS! DO YOU HAVE THE COJONES TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. 

TO THOSE WHO ARE OFFENDED BY WHAT I WRITE, WELL, WE ONLY GET ONE SHOT AT LIFE, AND OVER THE CIVILIZED HISTORY OF THE WORLD, MEANING PEOPLE KEPT RECORDS IN WRITING, WE ARE THE ONLY COUNTRY WHICH OFFERS FREEDOM, BUT AS A WHOLE BUNCH OF OUR FOREFATHERS SAID, YOU GET FREEDOM AND WITH IT COMES THE DUTY OF PROTECTING IT, AND IN MY MIND THAT MEANS CALLING OUT BS WHEN YOU SEE IT, ESPECIALLY SEE AND SMELL IT, AND THE FLIES ARE SWARMING AROUND YOU. REMINDS OF THE RUSSIAN JOKE ABOUT PODGORNY THE PRIVATE, AND OLAV, THE CAPTAIN. FOR ANOTHER TIME.

Frank Wiley

James Comer--Chairman of the Committee handling the Hunter Biden case has said that all sorts of information is coming out about the Biden crime family.  Before this last election, when the Crooked Democrats were in charge they were covering for the Biden's.  They wouldn't Supeanoe bank records or witnesses.  Now they're getting both.  The Treasury Department and the Justice Department were stonewalling them.  Comer, unlike Jim C., was almost giddy with the info coming out.  If I remember correctly, this is the first time in our lifetime that a V.P. Or President has been accused of accepting money from another Country, especially a Country who doesn't have our best interests at heart.  In fact, just the opposite!!

Jim Coats

Mike L.  To answer your inquiry in #9666, I only feel that way when you start the Post with:  Jim.......

Jim Coats

OK....here we go.  The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued an arrest warrant for Comrade Putin for war crimes.  I can see another Mission Impossible movie coming up.  Follow me here.

President XI of China (or as I like to call him, Eleven) is meeting with Putin in Russia in the near future.  Tom Cruise takes Eleven's place and goes in with a complete disguise.  He Cruise/Eleven reaches to shake hands with Putin and he has one of those rings on with a small point underneath and he dispenses a knock-out drug into Putin's palm.  Then, he shoots Putin's two guards with the plastic gun made on a 3-D computer that he smuggled in because it doesn't show up on x-ray.  He hauls Putin up to the roof where a Blackhawk helicopter with full stealth technology (invisible to outdated Russian radar because they let their extended warranty lapse), and they do a reverse fast rope up into the helicopter....transport Putin to the Ukraine where he is promptly arrested by the ICC and taken away to stand trial.

Once again the Impossible Mission Force (IMF) has conducted a successful mission because they are a rogue agency and DO NOT answer to the Biden administration.

The end.

Frank Wiley

Damn Jim, I'm going to start calling you Stephen (as in Spielberg).  New Subject-- Remember when Lyin Biden put boycotts on Russian Oligarchs?  James Comer has just come out after going through Bank Records that there were two Russian Oligarchs who Doe-Doe Joe didn't put boycotts on.  They both have something in common.  They were both investors in the Biden Crime Family!!  Byron Donald's said, "This is just the tip of the Iceberg.  Proof of Representative Donald's statement was that Comer also said that the guy who collected the money and distributed it to the Biden family has come forward to testify to the Committee!!

Jim Coats

Frank.  As Artie Johnson would say on Laugh In as the little German soldier with the cigarette.  "Verrrrry Interesting."

SAFE!!**

**SEE POST #9665.

Bill RIHS

Jim, I loved your IMF story related to Putin. You are special buddy!

Michael Kelly

Coats:  That is a pretty good movie Script for another Mission Impossible. It will be realtively easy to get an Eleven Look Alike Rubberoid Mask just go to any International Ping Pong Tournament and use your Smartphone, and 3D printer, and Voila, you have a mask. or the Television tuned into CNN. 

Trump says he is being arrested on Tuesday. Lorts, now you can finally rest easy, your safe now, but not SAFE, as in Coats acronym. Alvin Bragg the NY DA is faced with somewhat of an incongruent position, for if Trump is really the Felon that Bragg believes he is. Bragg will have no choice but to release Trump immediately on a No Bail Dispo. Otherwise Trump can argue it is a Denial of Equal Protection of the Law under the US Constitution, all the way to the SCOTUS and prevail. Either that, or Bragg will have to start enforcing NY Law as written by real Americans. The trouble I see for Bragg is that once upon a time a few years ago, Stormy Daniels signed a Declartion that her story about Trump paying her for Sex was a Lie she made up 

DeWitt Bacon

Jim. Great movie scenario. I think you missed your calling.

For those interested, a rather strange inconsistency has arisen in the intrigue connected with all that portends to be of note from the "newly discovered Hunter Biden Laptop" as follows. You will recall that the FBi was given the Laptop in question way back in the year 2000 after Mac, the Laptop repairman said that it had been left in his Repair Shop by Hunter himself, for repairs. Of course, now the story is that it may have been someone who lookied like Hunter, or perhaps Humter himself, conjecture can be engaged in about how this came about. But, here's the crux of the strange inconsistency, Hunter's legal counsel say that Hunter "neither denies or admits that the Laptop is his" which is the same as saying that you may have a dual personality, or a heebee geebee spirit that follows you around and looks like you and does some of the things you do------pretty much what you might imagine can happen to you if you hang out in too many Bars in Haiti, or Jamaica, or perhaps New Orleans, anyway, aforesaid Hunter, through these same legal counsel, is suing Mr. Mac for Invasion of Hunter's Privacy in a Court ot law. How can this be, however, because Hunter neither denies or admits that the Laptop is his, so how does he know his privacy has been invaded if --------- and so the lawsuit by Hunter seems to be floating adrift without a rudder in a Mist on some unnamed Sea--------- lets just hope some of the brilliant minds can show us how the square peg really does fit in the round hole after all. 

DeWitt Bacon

Michael K. Good Points, Remember, too, that Hunter has been a drug addict most of his life, perhaps even before he joined the Navy and got caught. This can result in many types of mental problems, including memory loss and schizophrenia. He first said it was his laptop, and now he says he doesn't know if it was his laptop.   Add to that, that he was raised in a corrupt and lying family, and you don't know what to believe from anyone associated with the Bidens. From what I've seen and heard, it seems that Beou was favored by their father. Hunter's actions with the Biden crime family may be his way of reaching out for acceptance.

Sunday Funnies--1. I drink Wine because my Doctor said I shouldn't keep things Bottled Up.  2. My Doctor gave me 3 days to stop drinking------since he didn't tell me witch ones, I picked June 5th, July 17th, and October 9th.  3. People write "Congtats" because they can't spell Congrajlashins!  4. Always make sure someone in the relationship has good credit!  That's why it's called-----sign/if/I/can't---other.  More Marriage tips later!!   5. Day 12 without a drink---I lost Hearing in my left Eye.  6. Scientists say the World is made up of Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons.  They forgot about all the Morons!!  7.  I Dog accepts you for who you are.  A Cat wants to see your resume!!               I enjoy waking up in the morning and reading on the "Home Page" what day it is--For instance today is "National Poultry Day".  Heck, and I thought it was Sunday?  How in the World did we every get through all these years without this daily knowledge?  I do have a question though?  We know the old question.  Which came first, the Chicken or the Egg?  The new question is, What's less expensive, the Chicken or the egg?

I told my wife she was to remain barefoot, pregnant, in the kitchen, and quiet.

Greg,

I know you will be shocked but I agree with your assessment that the US must show Putin that we will no longer put up with his BS. We must do something shocking to send a message not only to Putin but Xi as well. China is cheering Putin on because a Russian victory in Ukrain would pave the way for China to takeover Taiwan. I think you will find that most democrats are on this page. You need to convince the "America First" wing of your party to understand the importance of backing Ukrain in its fight against Putin. The top two contenders for the nomination in the 2024 election downplay the Ukrainian war as a regional skirmish. If you don't change that mindset that wing will underfund the war.

Frank Wiley

I heard an attorney say that "IF" Alan Bragg does arrest Trump based on what he's accused of, it is only a Misdemeanor unless he would lie in Court.  The attorney also said that since Bragg has been extremely liberal with arrestees (even felons) he would have a terrible time trying to do anything with an arrest.
