After watching the convention the past few days it reminded me how far apart the Republicrat party is from ideals of limited government and maximum liberty, so I decided to officially endorse Chase Oliver for President and his running mate Mike ter Maat. Time for Libertarian party to unify and back our guys. I was considering doing a fill in for Hornberger, Paul or just leave it blank but Chase Oliver it is.

Biden makes that announcement, war with iran seems more and more imminent, and the same company that installed Hillarys bootleg server in her bathroom then lost the emails tripped over the power cord and fucked operations globally.
I said this year is going to make the 2020 riots and pandemic bullshit look like a cake walk. Things are even more dire for them now, they ain't gonna just let trump happen...see his ear for reference.

Funny how you mention about wasting time on the internet with conspiracy theories. I literally spend less time on the internet than it takes you to type your responses. People show them to me and I do a little research. Sure half of it is probably bullshit- but you literally will not believe anything unless it's put out as an official narrative by the gov't or our media.......What does that make you? That makes you a shill? You sit here and refuse to believe in any coincidences and every shooter in history has been some lone wolf..........keep burying your head in the sand! And if you don't think the WEF is part of the Deep State then you haven't been paying attention.

Republican Platform Ignores Real Causes of Inflation
by Invalid Link Removed | Jul 22, 2024
Invalid Link Removed
The 2024 Republican platform promises that, if Donald Trump returns to the White House and Republicans gain complete control of Congress, they will reduce inflation. The platform contains some proposals, such as reducing regulations and extending the 2017 tax reductions, that may help lower prices in some sectors and spur economic growth. However, the GOP platform does not address how the Federal Reserve’s enabling of spendaholic politicians contributes to price inflation.
Other than an obligatory promise to cut “wasteful” spending, and a pledge to eliminate the Department of Education, the Republican platform is largely silent on proposals to reduce federal spending.
The GOP’s apparent desire to increase military spending is a disappointment to those of us who hoped the increased skepticism of foreign intervention among Republican voters would dampen Republican enthusiasm for the military-industrial complex. The platform also opposes any reduction in Social Security and Medicare. So, the “fiscally responsible” Republicans want to increase spending on one of the largest items in federal spending (“defense”) while opposing cuts in two others (Social Security and Medicare). Interest on the national debt, another of the top spending items, will continue growing under a Republican government. The only way Republicans may look like champions of small government is by comparison with the Democrats.
While it is disappointing that the Republican platform rejects fiscal responsibility, it is not surprising. President Trump increased the national debt by between seven and eight trillion dollars. While spending did explode with the covid lockdowns, the debt increased by trillions between Trump’s inauguration and the covid-inspired spending spree. Spending increased during Trump’s first two years in office, when Republicans controlled Congress. This is not the first time a Republican president has betrayed his promise to cut spending: Both President Bushes, as well as President Reagan, campaigned on pledges to cut spending then increased spending and debt while in office.
Politicians could not increase the national debt unless the Federal Reserve monetizes the debt by purchasing Treasury bonds and increasing the money supply to keep interest rates low. The need to monetize the debt is the main reason the central bank must keep interest rates from rising to anywhere near market levels. According to Manhattan Institute Senior Fellow Brian Riedl, every one percent increase in interest rates increases federal interest payments by 35 trillion dollars spread out over three decades.
It is no coincidence that the rise of the debt-based economy with ever-growing levels of consumer, business, and (especially) government debt — along with the accelerated decline of the dollar’s purchasing power, which reduces Americans’ standards of living — all occurred after President Nixon severed the last link between the dollar and gold. Yet, the Republican platform does not call for Congress to pass the Audit the Fed legislation, much less create a free market in money by legalizing competing currencies. Of course, the platform does not endorse ending the Fed’s ability to monetize federal debt by forbidding the Fed to purchase federal debt instruments.
It remains up to those of us who know the truth to keep spreading the message that the real key to making America great again is to make money real again by auditing and ending the Fed

Been following this thread.
My thoughts all along have been that the democratic party has been grooming Newsome to be the nominee. Maybe it will end up being Harris, but I'm not convinced. Just my opinion, and I am not a fan of either. Especially Newsome.
That being said, if whomever this small group of left elites handpick for us wins this election, it's not going to be pretty in this country. I would expect a lot of backlash. I won't go so far to say a civil war, but it will not be good.
Just my two cents...

I say Newsome wont run, will wait 4 years Trump is just too hot right now. Doesnt want to kill his own fire the way Desantis did during the primaries which many warned Desantis about, not that his career is over or anything. Newsome in years imo.

Now the only question is whether feeble-Joe steps down and let's Harris become the first ever semi-black female US President, to then enter into 2024 election as an incumbent.
The sooner the better, because the American people need to see how incompetent she is in the office before voting!

If you guys/gals dont care to vote for Trump or Harris, be sure to check out this new John Stossel interview with Libertarian Candidate Chase Oliver. Trump needs to debate Chase, have a real discussion. Debate with Harris is just going to be a stupid clown show. I think RFK Jr. needs to be on the debate show as well even though I dont support him. America deserves a real debate and real choices, not Trump vs. only some stupid puppets.

So Trump thinks Im stupid because I think its unconstitutional to jail people for defending flag burning via the 1st Amendment.....Trump wants 1 year jail sentence for lighting a flag on fire.
Glad I never considered voting for this guy, what a big government anti-Constitutional goblin as I have always said.
That being said, lighting flags on public property maybe light arson, litter, endangering the public, maybe there is a point of at least some kinda charge. 1 year in jail for expressing your 1st Amendment rights? Fuq off Trump.
When you allow government to regulate the 1st Amendment, there is no 1st Amendment. All speech and speech you hate are our natural rights, not ones given by you azzwipe.

You charge for arson, not 1 year in jail for "desecrating a flag" which is specifically an act of free speech. Unless you think its up to government to regulate the definition of free speech of course, but thats not leaning on emotional thinking over defending the 1A. Desecrating isnt necessarily arson either, can be in other ways such as spray painting it, etc.....jail time for that? LMFAO.
That being said I would never desecrate the flag, its dumb nor do I choose to associate with anti-American people. You dont have to love your government to love your country. Maybe they should desecrate a photo of Biden instead to come across a better point, at least thats the guy arming the Israeli's war (as much as he pretends not to support the Israeli war, I follow the money.) That being said again, even I wouldnt do that as much as I despise the guy, but Ill defend the 1A to the grave.

Why can't free speech actually just mean free speech? Ya know, like the words say.
Maybe all this flag burning SHOULD be stopped.
Burning the flag and spray painting monuments doesn't seem like "free speech" to me, nor does that look like a group that came to "peaceably assemble".
You posted constitution verse above. I am just reading the words.....

Im not saying painting monuments isnt a crime, its vandalism. You cant just criminalize someone for expressing themselves in a way that offends you. We arent a communist country here, we cant allow government to turn to terrorism to oppress symbolic speech.

Oh forget the Constitution, think for ourselves here. So just because someone bought a flag and lit it on fire in protest but didnt break any other laws (lets say they lit a fire where you are allowed to or got a local burning permit) you think they should go to prison for a year just because your butt hurt????

I think there should be ONE thing that unites us all as Americans, that doesn't get sh1t on or desecrated. ONE thing to anchor law and order, and national pride, and oppose the slow cancer of anarchy. We see now what the current policies have wrought....
I am also an old Marine. And I know what people have done for that flag, to hold it high and protect it at all costs. What it meant to those people who died for it, and who can no longer speak out in its defense.
So I may be both outdated and biased.

Lol, yes I did say that, ultimately we should think for ourselves above all, both politically and religion, any other ideology. Wasnt meant as "lets abolish the Constitution." What attracts me to the Constitution and Libertarianism is that I happen to agree with alot of the chain of thought that had been applied to them. If I didnt set that in order Id be a dogmatist, dont like thinking like that, thats when thinking stops.
Anyways 100% with you on feelings of desecrating the flag and having national pride (I always add over and over again, dont have to love your government to love your country,) we just have different solutions/actions towards that but thats all good.

I 100% agree with you. I’m an old Marine as well, Semper Fi to you shock troop. SCOTUS 100% screwed up on that ruling. Our country now has no unity and patriotism is a thing of the past unless you’re in your 40’s or older. It’s a sad state out country is in and it needs to come back to reality quickly before we’re all speaking another language.

That’s why I’m against pro athletes being able to kneel during the national anthem. I support the 1st amendment but bringing personal feelings to the playing field which is their place of work shouldn’t be allowed. Sports used to be where everyone of every race and socioeconomic level can come together and fellowship and leave all the political BS outside but the libtards have allowed it to come into everything. But damn at least leave the red white and blue alone.
