Future of this Country
I would like to see the Republican Party simply run this clip as their campaign ad.

"Are you better off today than you were four years ago?"
No one said it better.
Just my .02, YMMV.

Sadly, I don't think there are any republicans left to run that ad.
Many of the republicans from the Regan era seem to have voted for either Brandon or Bill Clinton's wife in the last two elections.
...Regan's VP and his VPs two sons all turned out to be more progressive-globalist than actual conservative republicans.

TR,
I’ve attached President Ronald Reagan's Farewell Address to the nation, and as I listened, I believed he was sure prescient in the items he covered.

I just watched that video - and yes, it made me cry a bit. Oh, how far we have fallen. That doesn't mean I give up. It's just that I realize the nation, under Ronald Reagan, was a very different nation from what exists today. May Almighty God help us.

It's the same nation that declared its independence from tyrants that used the oppression of forced taxation and armed government enforcers over 240 years ago.
It's the same nation that helped Abe Lincoln end slavery.
The same nation that helped end WW1
The same nation that liberated Europe in the 1940's and ended WW2
The same nation that produced the 1969 Mets
The same nation that produced the 1976 Olympic Decathlon Gold Medal Winner
The same nation that bankrupted the USSR
The same nation that levied a blood tariff on al Quade and ISIS
The same nation that worshipped Bill Clinton
The same nation that worshipped Barak Hussien Obama
The same nation that champions drag queen story hour
The same nation that turned the 1976 Olympic Decathlon Gold Medal Winner into Glamour Magazines Woman of the Year
The same nation that produced Beavis and Butthead
... it's just being run by a bunch of fucking seditious retards

Beavis and Butthead are veritable paragons of wisdom.
Their insight into the subtleties of identity politics and ability to reach across the idealogical isle represents a beacon of hope for the future.

You'll notice that I have conspicuously used "Soldier Beavis" as my avatar for well over a decade.
A deep and thoughtful study of the inner workings of "Beavis and Butthead" would show a prophetic look into the future of this country. When these two dysfunctional students from Highland High School burst into the public consciousness almost 30 years ago they gave us a glimpse at what our country would look when their generation reached middle age...
...narcissistic, self indulgent, greedy, aimless, and socially disconnected citizens that are only interested in themselves.
A nation addicted to instant gratification, hypnotized by assuming that whatever they saw on TV was the next best thing to reality.
For fuck sake; they tried digging for oil in their back yard because they watched a rerun of a 30 year old SITCOM and figured, if the Beverly Hillbillies could strike oil and become rich, then so could they...
...here we are; 30 years later watching our youth eating tide pods, dumping ice on their heads, licking toilets seats, punching old people, and even hosting “COVID parties”
All the while demanding that the government pay off their student loans because their esoteric Degree in Memeology from the University of Texas at Austin ( dont laugh - look it up for yourself) still hasn't produced that six figure starting salary that they thought it should.
Beavis and Butthead are fortune tellers that showed us 30 years ago what 2022 was going to look like - we just didn't pay attention.

There is nothing like seeing a plan come together.
the 1st thing i noticed on College campuses in the fall of 2007, BHO would take office 1/20/2008, while attending UPenn, I was shocked at how segregation was being reestablished in the school as each group was given room/space, club/meeting room, that disallowed any non group member to enter. All based in tribalism, BHO fingerprints all over the messaging. Now the fruits of that labor are being harvested, having spent the past 3 graduation cycle improving that conditioning and Anti-Americanism, they have found their loyal recruits waiting, as jobs are tough to come by in a stalled economic recession.

TO SEE THE VIDEO GO TO THE FINDER SECTION TYPE IN IRS RECRUITING..
The Internal Revenue Service is recruiting college students by giving them a taste of what it feels like to take down a tax evader.
But Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky has doubts that the recruitment initiative is going to benefit the American people. He shared a clip of an April report on what the IRS has dubbed the “Adrian Project.”
“In case you thought the IRS needed 87,000 more agents to help you with your tax returns and audit billionaires, watch this: Highlights from the IRS Adrian recruiting project,” he tweeted on Wednesday.
“Notice the scenario in this IRS recruiting program is ‘taking down a landscape business owner who failed to properly report how he paid for his vehicles,’ not ‘taking down a billionaire who uses the corporate jet for private trips,'” Massie added on Friday.
The recruitment event highlighted in the video took place at Dixie State University in St. George, Utah. It was reported by the university’s Community Education Channel.

Quick impression and a comment. Stark is the young lady prospect saying up front that 20 yrs then out with a pension, sooner you get in, sooner you get out & then go start a business and do something else. The IRS are going to get exactly who they're looking for.
Observation: This is another of the cogs in the machine that is going to generate more of "the guy who's lost everything and now has nothing left to lose." We know such people are completely harmless, right?

That video is spot on, too bad we don't have someone like that in this era.

Our votes no longer count, it's the vote counter that rules. November 2020 proved that.

If voting mattered, they wouldn’t let us do it.
