Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Undercuts Democrats on January 6: ‘Little Evidence of a True Insurrection’:

Like many reasonable Americans, I am concerned about the possibility that political objectives motivated the vigor of the prosecution of the J6 defendants, their long sentences, and their harsh treatment. That would fit a disturbing pattern of the weaponization of government agencies — the DoJ, the IRS, the SEC, the FBI, etc. — against political opponents.

One can, as I do, oppose Donald Trump and all he stands for, and still be disturbed by the weaponization of government against him.

Instead of demonizing our opponents as apocalyptic threats to democracy, let’s focus on the issues and priorities of how they will govern, and defeat them at the ballot box rather than through legal maneuvers and dirty tricks.

March Jobs Report Reveals One Big Problem with Biden’s Economy:

The March jobs report released this week reveals one huge problem with Biden’s economy: Most of the jobs went to foreign-born workers – including illegal aliens.

The media this week boasted about the March jobs report after nonfarm payrolls increased 300,000.

“Job creation in March easily topped expectations in a sign of continued acceleration for what has been a bustling and resilient labor market,” CNBC reported.

“Nonfarm payrolls increased 303,000 for the month, well above the Dow Jones estimate for a rise of 200,000 and higher than the downwardly revised 270,000 gain in February, the Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday.” the outlet reported.

There’s one big problem: Native-born Americans are being frozen out of the workforce. Foreign-born workers – including illegals – got the majority of the March jobs.

Furthermore, the 300,000 nonfarm payrolls added in March are all part-time!

It’s all smoke and mirrors.  Many Americans are working multiple jobs to make ends meet.

Last year it was reported month after month that foreign-born workers were taking all the jobs while native- born-Americans lost their jobs.  1.2 million native-born Americans lost their jobs in August.  771,000 foreign-born workers replaced them.

Ukraine Will Join NATO, Says Antony Blinken:

NATO is going to “build a bridge” towards Ukraine becoming a member state of the defensive alliance, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on the organization’s 75th birthday.

North Atlantic Treaty Organisation member states met in Brussels at the alliance’s headquarters on Thursday to toast the 75th anniversary of its founding, among them U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken who like others used the occasion to discuss renewed Russian aggression and the potential place of Ukraine among its members. He emphasized the view, already articulated multiple times by NATO leaders in recent years, that “Ukraine will become a member of NATO."

What he left unsaid, however, was the conditions that generally come with the statement, that this membership would be when Ukraine is in a fit state to join, including not being occupied by a foreign power.

While Ukraine may be a way off formally joining NATO, individual members are storming ahead with creating ‘NATO-lite’ arrangements with Ukraine, by signing 10-year treaties with Kyiv promising further funding, support, and promising military aid if Russia invades the state again for the duration of the agreement. The eighth such NATO-lite paper was signed just yesterday with Finland, following the United Kingdom in January, then Germany, France, Denmark, Canada, Italy, and the Netherlands.

One of the best blessing from Jesus is that we don't worry about the futute, no matter how bad the world gets. We share in the blessed hope of the soon to be rapture.

From KS Rajan on Five Doves:

US End Game Approaching - Govt Spending More Than Twice What It Is Collecting:

According to the US Treasury, in February, the US collected $271 billion in various tax receipts, and spent $567 billion, more than double what it collected.  … and spending which is about 50% higher compared to where it was in 2020.

....in a world where the US is spending more than twice what it is collecting, the endgame is clear: debt collapse, and while it won’t be tomorrow, or the week after, it is coming… and it’s also why the US is now selling $1 trillion in debt every 100 days just to keep operating (and absorbing all those millions of illegal immigrants who will keep voting democrat to preserve the socialist system of the US, so beloved by the Soros clan).

And it gets even worse, because we are now in the Ponzi finance stage of the Minsky cycle, with total interest on the debt annualizing well above $1 trillion, and rising every day.  … having already surpassed total US defense spending and soon to surpass total health spending and, finally all social security spending, the largest spending category of all, which means that US debt will now rise exponentially higher until the inevitable moment when the US dollar loses its reserve status and it all comes crashing down.

.. which lays out the proposed Biden budget as follows: The budget deficit will grow another $16 TRILLION over next 10 years. Thats *with* the proposed massive tax hikes.  Without them, the deficit will grow $19 trillion. That’s why you will hear the 'deficit is being reduced by $3 trillion' over the decade.  No family budget or business could exist with this kind of math.

Of course, in the long run, neither can the US… and since neither party will ever cut the spending which everyone by now is so addicted to, the best anyone can do is start planning for the endgame.
