Weekend Reads: Holiday “Spirits” on Ice, Please
One of the biggest taxes is one that is not even called a tax — inflation. When the government spends money that it creates, it is transferring part of the value of your money to themselves.

Glenn H. Reynolds: The ‘cabal’ that bragged of foisting Joe Biden on us must answer for his failed presidency
A.J. Kaufman: Biden’s Curious Call with Ukraine’s Zelensky: White House officials rejected news that President Joe Biden will pressure Ukraine to cede territory to Russian-backed separatists in order to deter President Vladimir Putin from pushing forward with a large-scale invasion. … Umm, so … like … calling Zelensky/Ukraine– to pressure– isn’t an “impeachable offense” now? Also, a reminder that Biden was VP when Obama allowed Russia to invade and annex Crimea, and then Biden’s son Hunter got really busy taking jobs he wasn’t experienced in and making massive amounts of money in that region.
Zachary Halaschak: Democratic spending bill would add $3 trillion to deficits if provisions made permanent, CBO says
The ten-year “Build Back Bolshevik” bill contains a lot of obvious gimmicks which pretend to reduce its cost — just to deceive voters and to deceive Joe Manchin and Kristin Sinema.
The most obvious deception is that spending plan which originally were slated to go on for the full ten years contemplated by the bill suddenly end, for no reason, after one year or three years in the “slimmed down” bill.
This is obvious bullsh*t: everyone understands the leftists behind this catastrophe intend this spending to go on for ten years, and will extend the spending the first opportunity they have.
The claim that spending ends after one or three years is a, what’s the word? Not gimmick; that sounds clever and even playful.
It’s a lie. It’s just a lie.
Democrats are pretending they brought the cost of the Build Back Bolshevik plan down from a $3.5 trillion to $1.7 trillion (what a steal!), but it’s all a lie…
Read the whole thing. At this point, are we really “shocked and awed”, not just at the Vaseline-smeary-blurry math/accounting, but at the unaccountable demo-commie lies and deception?
Look at what inflation was at Jan 21 … Biden has more than QUADRUPLED it in 11 months.
But hey, no more mean tweets, right? Shew! https://t.co/YULPk6HgaE

From Bob Dole’s farewell letter: “I’m a bit curious to learn if I am correct in thinking that Heaven will look a lot like Kansas.
…And to see, like others who have gone before me, if I will still be able to vote in Chicago.”

DM: Elon Musk’s SpaceX gets green light from the FCC for orbital launch of Starship early next year – but it will still need to pass FAA environmental review before the rocket can leave the ground … This is one reason why he wants to colonize the moon and make lunar launch bases there. This BS would not get in the way.

I took this video on my smartphone using digital zoom. It was the best I could do in short notice as I was just a general attendee sitting towards the back. I’m fairly certain the school did do a professional recording. Once they release it please buy a copy to support the high school and it’s theater program. Thank you.
