Who knows if this Biden administration and Libral Leftist media will even continue to report what's True.

The bill that Trump had killed would have put thousands more people onto the problem, so that asylum seekers crossing the border would have been processed within weeks and then days, instead of the months to years it takes now with the immense backlog. With that speedy processing, it would legally deter the influx, once immigrants get that they don't get to game the system.

Politician lies about politician lies. The snake eats itself?

Neither Harris, nor Biden want open borders. There is an immigration process to go through, and international laws regarding seeking asylum, that Trump is all too happy to ignore if it gets him another vote. Of course he doesn't want it fixed, because he likes to blame it on his opponents and the immigrants' cheap labor helps his billionaire friends.

Gun laws need to be fixed when lunatics can buy and keep anything stronger than an air rifle.

"Throughout history the lives of tyrants almost always seem to end the same way. Through assassination by someone close to them."

Regarding your price gouging statement that "A few company’s may do that but that’s NOT why everything we buy is 20 to 60% higher now compared to the Trump years." It would only take a few companies since it is only a few that control everything.

Four giant companies – that's right, FOUR – Tyson, Cargill, and Brazil-based National Beef and JBS, now control 85% of the U.S. beef market. WH Group (Chinese), JBS, Hormel, and Tyson control about 67% of the pork market. Tyson and Pilgrims Pride control about 45% of the chicken market.





In 2023, PepsiCo’s chief financial officer said that even though inflation was dropping, its prices would not be. Pepsi hiked its prices by double digits and announced plans to keep them high in 2024.

If Pepsi were challenged by tougher competition, consumers would just buy something cheaper. But PepsiCo’s only major soda competitor is Coca-Cola, which – surprise, surprise – announced similar price hikes at about the same time as Pepsi and has also kept its prices high.

The CEO of Coca-Cola claimed that the company had “earned the right” to push price hikes because its sodas are popular. Popular? The only thing that’s popular these days seems to be corporate price gouging.

We’re seeing this pattern across much of the economy – especially with groceries. At the end of 2023, Americans were paying at least 30% more for beef, pork and poultry products than they were in 2020.

Why? Near-monopoly power. Just four companies now control processing of 80% of beef, nearly 70% of pork, and almost 60% of poultry. So of course it’s easy for them to coordinate price increases.


The problem goes well beyond the grocery store. In 75% of US industries, fewer companies now control more of their markets than they did 20 years ago.

Agreed, that is why it is important to make it clear that the talking point is illegal immigration.

Because when you just say immigration it looks like you're referring to the legal immigration that is taking place.

There is a huge difference between the two. Immigration is planned while illegal immigration is not.

Complaining about immigration is nonsensical, it is not the immigrants faults the companies prefer to hire them because they accept a lower wage.

Either Americans needs to also start accepting lower wages to remain competitive or demand that companies gets limited to a minimum wage that must be met. It is why unions are so important.

Blaming immigrants for a problem caused and retained by company greed would be stupid.

So instead of shouting "stop immigration", maybe you should start shouting "stop company greed"?

But I am doubtful Trump would ever endorse such a statement or rally you behind such a cause, considering he loves money more than his own children and the fact that he's already been paid for.

Why don't you try shouting "stop company greed" at the next Trump rally and see what happens? I'm sure Trump would single you out and call you a democrat, no matter how much of a MAGA you are. Then you get to witness first hand how easily he discards you.

Kamala is also Marxist.

Well, I, for one, am not assuming the VP has any more power than any other cabinet member. I think that overall, Afghanistan was a success under Biden, in that we've been out of there and haven't lost anymore people. It's on them, now. I agree that the 13 US servicemembers dying is awful, but so are the thousands of others who died over the decades since Bush mistakenly got us into it. Trying to maintain anything there was just a sunken cost fallacy. Although, I don't know exactly why Biden insisted on getting out.

But let's humor you. What do you think Mike Pence ever helped Trump decide? And who don't Congressional laws have a line for the VP to sign?

CEO's have admitted to the gouging. Republicans have admitted that Trump killed a bi-partisan border bill that the Border Guard Union approved and endorsed. The amount of disinformation, much coming from Russia, that is being spread by Trump, Vance and MAGA supporers defies the truths that are verified.

Corporations not the government are responsible for high prices. Much of what people buy regularly is controlled by a handful of companies. These have been caught price gouging the American people with Krogers admitting it.
CEO's looking to keep their cushy jobs and especially their bonus's are responsible.

Regarding the 'failed immigration policies' of the Biden administration. There was a border bill but it was shot down by Republicans obeying Trump. Why take care of a problem when you can scream about it. Passing the bill would have made the Biden administration look good and that would have removed the only talking point the Republicans and Trump have. Fear and hate of those that different are the mainstay of Trump's rallys and speeches/intervies.

Yes, Trump was alright, besides all the criminality until he had to do his job. He totally beefed the pandemic response, thanks largely to disbanding the pandemic response task force emplaced by the Obama administration, having successfully handled bird flu and Ebola.

Wait. Trump didn't do anything to make America better. Just scared the cr*p out of his fans over immigration, despite lowering crime rates, and then gave himeself and his rich friends huge tax cuts. Exploded the national debt. And you want more school kids murdered while he tells lies about "abortions after nine months." The guy's a convicted felon, for crying out loud.

Yes, Harris' stance on issues like fracking and immigration have moderated, because she's learned to build consensus to effect change, and we can get past natural gas later. Solar and wind power are already the cheapest power generation, and battery storage is becoming so affordable that we're basically wiping out nuclear power, and the money saved by not polluting the air and water with coal ash, will pay $billions in dividends.

No, that's not how it works. If it were that wages were too high, the jobs would've left long ago. California's always paid more than other countries, and the minimum wage in other states is still lower, but the companies aren't all leaving, or even all paying the minimum. It's the job, and the pay is where the employer and employee meet.

As for poor people hiring, I've been employed by lots of places where they're worth less than $10 million, or even the $100 million point where the proposed wealth taxes would kick in. Except for the biggest companies, I usually have no insight of what the employer is worth. I had one job where my last paycheck didn't cash, so I guess that counts as a poor company.

No, I get that corporations have great incentive to maximize profits. But all the farming for lower corporate tax rates is already done. There are more than twenty countries with a 0% corporate tax rate, and yet we still have corporations here in the US. When Trump lowered the corporate tax rate, we didn't suddenly gain new corporations from other countries.

It's not that Democrats don't understand your logic. It's just been shown to be false. "Trickle-down" economics never worked, and the Laffer Curve is a silly mental exercise. Since Reagan, the national debt has increased to unsustainable levels, and all the easy spending cuts have already been made. If anything, raising the corporate tax rate to 29% isn't enough.

Well, he certainly spent more than this administration ever will.
