Debunking Biden’s ‘Zero Dollar’ Lie: Economist Exposes the Real Cost of Biden’s $3.5 Trillion Plan

If rich Americans and large corporations foot the bill, does a tax plan really cost “zero dollars” to the average American?

Recent comments suggest the Democratic Party believes this to be the case.

In promoting the forthcoming $3.5 trillion, 2,465-page “Build Back Better” bill, President Joe Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Washington Democrats have forwarded claims that the bill — because it is paid for by the wealthy and large corporations — comes at “zero” cost to Americans.

California scrambles to ban ‘ghost guns’ as untraceable weapons’ popularity soars

Cities across California are ramping up efforts to try to stop the flow of so-called ghost guns into their jurisdictions, as the do-it-yourself weapons appear with increasing frequency at homicide scenes, traffic stops and community gun buybacks.

As state and federal laws meant to bring ghost guns into compliance with traditional firearm laws await implementation, local officials and prosecutors across California are increasingly resorting to bans and lawsuits to regulate the weapons in their cities.

Will Britain Shiver? – This winter, the U.K.’s wrongheaded energy policy may test public devotion to environmentalism.

Britain this winter might perform an interesting if discomfiting experiment to find out how deep is its people’s practical commitment to the environment. My guess is that it is not terribly deep.

There is much talk of a coming energy crisis if the winter is severe. A possibility exists that the lights will go out, factories will close, and hot water and central heating will be lacking. A population unused to such hardships may express its discontent by means not wholly peaceful or constitutional.

China owed $385bn – including ‘hidden debt’ from poorer nations, says report

Researchers have identified debts of at least $385bn (£286bn) owed by 165 countries to China for ”belt and road initiative” (BRI) projects, with loans systematically underreported to international bodies such as the World Bank.

The four-year study by US-based research lab AidData said the debt burdens were kept off the public balance sheets through the use of special purpose and semi-private loans, and were “substantially larger than research institutions, credit rating agencies, or intergovernmental organisations with surveillance responsibilities previously understood”.

The Real Palestinian ‘Heroes’: Terrorists

While many international media outlets focused their attention on the escape of six Palestinian inmates from an Israeli prison on September 6, as well as the ensuing dramatic manhunt launched by thousands of Israeli police officers and soldiers, only a few – if any – reported on the Palestinian Authority (PA) leadership’s ongoing glorification of terrorists.

The PA lionization of Palestinian terrorists, including those who have been caught by the Israeli security forces, tried and are currently serving prison sentences, is not new. In fact, this is a practice that dates back to the first years of the founding of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in 1964.

Female jailbirds furious over possible trans killer transfer

… Yostin Murillo and David Beak were convicted of first-degree murder for Estrada’s slaying and sentenced to life in prison earlier this month. Murillo — who was supposed to have been booted from the country in 2015 — wants easy time.

Like a lot of other enterprising jailbirds playing Corrections Canada like a fiddle, Murillo now identifies as a woman. Just the latest violent criminal who wants to do their time in a women’s prison. Their future cellmates aren’t happy.

Are You a White Christian Conservative? Joy Reid Probably Thinks You’re a Terrorist

It was a potpourri of evil and stupid Wednesday night on MSNBC’s The ReidOut as host Joy Reid and a conga line of like-minded guests shoveled more poison to viewers by talking about everything from tens of millions of Americans embracing “Republican extremism” to the GOP consisting of criminal delinquents you shouldn’t leave alone with children to white Christians being deep-seated racists filled with hatred for Black people instead of love Jesus.
