Medicaid overspending costs taxpayers $16B a month, watchdog reports. A recurring theme found on these pages is the multiple exposés on how much of our tax money the Democrats throw away on health care and other benefits for the illegal aliens that broke federal law to get here. Couple that with the Idiot in Chief extending the Chinese virus crisis until next spring, and voilà, it’s costing us taxpayers $16 billion EVERY MONTH! Talk about writing checks you can’t cash. This spending is EXACTLY why the national debt is over $31 TRILLION and continues to climb. People – here’s the deal. The debt you’re passing on to your kids and grandkids will never go away until you start electing politicians that’re fiscally savvy and competent. It will never change until you send officials to your state capital and Washington, D.C., to break the cycle between the lobbyists and your wallet.

The TSA plans to take facial recognition technology nationwide. Are you ready to get dragged out of the TSA screening line because their facial recognition software tagged you as a conservative commonsenser? Anybody that scoffs at the idea does so at their peril. It’s not too much of a stretch to assume the Biden regime will soon follow the lead of its Chinese buddies when it comes to cataloging and tracking people not onboard with their woke progressive politics. They will normalize facial scans using public fear of having their plane getting blown out of the air by a shoe bomber. When that happens, the best a frequent flyer can hope for is that your doppelganger isn’t a terrorist on the no-fly list.

Brittney Griner released from a Russian prison in swap for convicted arms dealer. How many saw THIS ONE coming? I’ve been following this story since its inception, knowing that this was how it would turn out. What do I mean? The whole thing carries the stench of Democrats. Allow me to expand. Griner went to Russia to play basketball and was caught at the airport with a vape pen filled with CBD. She told the Russians she had a prescription for it and had suffered a lapse of judgment when she packed it (Really? That’s like saying you forgot you had to go through airport security when you put a loaded .357 in your suitcase). Fast forward to now. As is customary for these situations, the U.S. works out a prisoner swap. So, who does the Idiot in Chief swap? We’ve got a Russian called “The Merchant of Death” in prison for selling illegal arms to warring factions in Africa, responsible for the deaths of dozens, if not hundreds, of people. This has quid pro quo written all over it. Biden trades a black, drug-possessing lezbo for a known arms dealer who’ll continue to sell death internationally. If you’re going to trade a known killer, why not exchange him for Paul Whelan whose been in a Russian prison for 16 years, wrongly accused of being a spy? I’ll tell you why – because that wouldn’t help him gain votes from the black and rainbow flag communities. If you can’t SEE that, you’ve been living under a rock too long.

Oregon Senator plans federal property tax. Alright – here we go. I hope all of you misguided souls that voted for Merkley last time are happy. His latest idea is to pass a FEDERAL INCOME TAX! How’s THAT for playing too far out in the left field? If, somehow, this ludicrously becomes law, I hope Merkley voters are chosen to be the first to write Biden a check.

Dick Durbin is coming for your credit card rewards.This is the same Democrat who paid back lobbyists 12 years ago by putting price controls on debit/credit card transactions and effectively ending free checking accounts. Now, he’s trying to take away even more from the banks and turn it over to the Best Buys and Walmarts of the retail landscape. Suppose Durbin’s legislation makes it to Biden’s desk and gets signed. In that case, American consumers will suffer a greater chance of their credit card transaction falling victim to theft from fly-by-night processing firms, AND you’ll have to kiss your favorite rewards program goodbye. Why you ask? Because Durbin’s bill would allow big-box retailers to redirect the credit or debit card transactions through less secure systems of THEIR choosing. This would circumvent the highly secured and monitored networks used by the institution that issued the Visa or Mastercard, which would also avoid their rewards programs. You thought you had a lot of identity theft and subsequent fraudulent charges before? Wait till this bill passes. If you haven’t figured it out, this post is today’s installment on why to hate Democrats.
