The Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade has given power back to the people to decide what laws should apply when it comes to abortion.
- Justice Samuel Alito's opinion in which he argues clearly, forcefully, compellingly, and without apology that the Court made a grievous mistake in 1973 when it invented a constitutional right to abortion out of whole cloth, and then compounded that mistake with 1992's Planned Parenthood v. Casey
- Abortion is a "profound moral question" - something that every country recognizes, which is why they all place restrictions on it, the vast majority of them far more restrictive than the restrictions under Roe
Democrats have long expressed frustration, if not outright contempt, for the Constitution whenever it hinders their ability to enact some new government program
- This is alarming, given that a major U.S. political party - which still considers itself mainstream - is now willing to specifically target amendments designed to protect Americans from tyrannical government control
When the Roe decision came down in 1973, pro-lifers immediately put together a "Human Life Amendment" in an attempt to counteract the decision
- They worked tirelessly with state legislators to pass laws restricting abortion where they could
- For nearly 50 years, they advocated for constitutional conservatives to be appointed to the Supreme Court, even though they knew Roe was an outrageous example of legislating from the bench
The Clintons are back at the top of the news, claiming in recent separate interviews that we are at risk of "losing our democracy."
- The implication is that Democrats' political opponents are authoritarians who will, well, we really don't know how the Democrats think "democracy" will be lost. They never say. Voters are simply supposed to believe them.
The Clintons are central to the destruction of civil politics in the U.S.
- Hillary has insisted that Donald Trump was an "illegitimate president" who "stole" the election
- She has never accepted her 2016 loss, which has only inflamed the hostilities between the left and right
- Both Clintons are grifters who've made money off the backs of others
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell
- Fed leaders finally decided they needed to act and hiked the fed funds rate by 75 basis point, the biggest increase in 28 years
- Some Fed officials had questionable stock-trading activity dating back to 2020 and the start of a massive quantitative easing (QE) program
- QE flooded markets with liquidity, and cryptocurrency has no underlying business earnings or prospect of earnings
- People were making a lot of money in crypto
The job of the Fed is to demonstrate common sense and discipline and control inflation. Their task was not to bid up cryptocurrency prices.
- Fed chief Powell, at one point during his presser, seemed to blame lack of Federal Reserve understanding of rising inflation pressures on the central bank's use of models which, of course, aren't going to pick up rising inflationary pressures
- Something was very wrong at the Federal Reserve during 2021 and into 2022
