    Powell stated that we cannot lower interest rates because inflation will be up, personal income will be down, and spending will be down. Numnuts stated he was a political hack.

    For the first time in 4 years, personal income and spending are down. Inflation went up

    Let me help you out, Germ's a liberal, TDS he's a hack. FYI the above is just the data of what is happening.

    God help us when his chairman of the Federal Reserve gets control

    Lowest inflation was observed in his first term... Let's see what his ideas accomplish before we cry.

    Hmmm. My personal income has been the same for years. Inflation if the fly in the soup.

    no. It's gone from the final bill in the vote-o-rama.

    that said, even if the bill passes the Senate, both MAGA and neocon wings of the R party in the House are seriously not happy about the version being sent back to them. ....the bill is still a long way from passing.

    saying now Repubs have the votes to pass the BBB, then back to the House (not happy with some changes) ... remember, no bill will ever be perfect ...

    anyways, remember these guys ... knew these people were crooks ....

    ACTBLUE MUST FACE CONGRESS AFTER MASSIVE FRAUD & FOREIGN ELECTION FUNDING DOJ PROBE. ActBlue officials have been subpoenaed and are now legally obligated to testify before Congress over years of enormous fraud regarding their fundraising platform directly connected to the Democratic Party.

    They are alleged to have been laundering money through ActBlue for years using unaware American citizens’ personal information in an attempt to cover up the illegal donations, especially coming from foreign nations.

    Biden’s Treasury Secretary stonewalled Congress refusing to release ActBlue information, the top seven executives at ActBlue resigned as billions of taxpayer dollars in small dollar donations to ActBlue coming from USAID to Democrat-aligned NGOs began to disappear.

    Pam Bondi has also been ordered by President Trump to investigate ActBlue. One person summoned is a current senior workflow specialist, and the other is the former VP of customer service, Alyssa Twomey, per NYP.

    Are you starting to understand how these illegal operations steal and launders your taxpayer dollars and hides foreign money and why USAID and all these front companies and NGOs were so important?

    And it’s all being used to undermine the American citizens, their interests, and the United States in general all while using your own taxpayer dollars and information to cover it all up, steal elections, destroy the country, and enrich themselves.
    https://revolver.news/2025/07/its-official-actblue-busted-and-theyre-cornered-with-nowhere-to-run/

    This isn’t politics. This is a literal criminal enterprise disguised as a government organization.

    I'd be all for a 3rd party, if, and only if it is not just some smear party. It would have to be a party that can attract from both of the 2 parties and not just one.

    Wouldn't it be a 5th party though? Or would it be a combining of the Libertarians and Independents in hopes of pulling voters away from both major parties?

    If they can't get up near the 30% mark it would serve no better than the current party situation. More division isn't what is needed, and how long would it take for the "new" party to turn to "old" ways and it becomes another same old, same old of names we already have now?
