    Who really cares?  It has become a mockery of the notion of honor.

    Just rewatched the video of hillary asking the Chinese to find Trump’s tax returns. What a joke.

    Well, there’s some evidence. A day late and a dollar short.

    It’s called plausible deniability.

    When your libbie friends say things like “there’s no evidence of that, even the president says he hasn’t seen evidence of it!” You can refer to this.

    “No evidence” is the modern refuge of people who are willfully blind.

    Amazing. I bet a lot of people never thought their real estate could possibly go down.

    Totally coincidental to your post I ran across the Yellowstone volcano doc on max last night. Yeah if that erupts, we are pretty much screwed.

    He probably still thinks he can do 50 pushups too.

    Correction:  that’s how a politician who grew up in a one party state would handle it.

    we dodged a bullet, boys.

    I’ll put it this way:  in a party and state that claps back at any criticism of a female candidate with accusations of sexism and misogyny, nobody is going to critique all the wonderful strengths Kamala has and all the fantastic jobs she can do until they actually have to vote.

    She’s awful. I would be willing to bet there are a thousand more accomplished black and Indian females in Silicon Valley alone, much less in the state.  She is the product of patronage, and while that sometimes produces capable people, it didn’t in her case. She has “failed up” like a few female executives I have known, and it’s always because they have such unique strengths and bravery, even in failure.

    Politics is like college football. Once the money got so big people forgot principle. It’s just another market at this point.

    ten percent for the big guy.

    Rachel is the Alex Jones of the left.

    She was badly exposed during this presidential election cycle.

    Theoretically, I would prefer a very low income tax and a very high estate tax, but as you note, the issue is with the concentration of power.  The ideal for me is to die with zero or darn near it.  That means I would hope to give away pretty much everything before death.  That way the government gets very little.

    I don’t know how workable that is, but it’s the ideal.  If the point of an estate tax is to increase tax revenue and concentration of government power, then I’m not for it. If it is to return assets to circulation in younger generations, then I’m all for it.
