Every month we devote posts to just general political class insanity that is running rampant through the country. The members of the American political class continue to show that they are incapable of efficiently operating any level of government in this country.
Even their best efforts are almost always ineffective at resolving any problem facing Americans. They spend a great amount of time not trying to improve the lives of their citizens but continually ensuring their reelection and enriching themselves, their families, and their friends in the process, all at taxpayer expense.
1)One would hope that politicians would be true leaders, people you can look up to and have high levels of integrity. Readers of this blog know that usually that hope is just a fantasy, reinforced recently by the alleged behaviors of a Florida political operative:
Matthew Inman was, until recently, the party treasurer and president of Rainbow Democrats.
He was also a delegate to the Democratic National Committee and president of an LBGBTQ+ organization that tries to “foster goodwill” in the community.
But obviously he has a different definition of “foster goodwill” than most people since Federal prosecutors announced that Inman has been arrested on charges of transportation of child sex material.
Prosecutors said that Inman had videos showing the sexual abuse of children.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Middle District of Florida: “In October 2024, Inman traveled to Las Vegas and began talking online with an undercover law enforcement officer posing as the father of a 9-year-old boy. During this conversation, Inman expressed interest in meeting and sexually assaulting the purported child.”
When the FBI got to his Florida home he attempted to delete other video evidence while hiding in his attic.
All of the organizations he associated with tried to distance themselves from him and his behavior.
Obviously, Inman is innocent until proven guilty. But Federal prosecutors usually do not fool around with arrests unless they have a pretty solid case. Another member of the political class that appears to be no more worthy of leading the country than the majority of others involved in American politics.
2)A number of years ago we showed how vindictive, childish, shallow and violent liberals can be in this country. That post can be accessed at:
https://loathemygovernment.blogspot.com/2016/07/how-american-liberals-and-washington.html
This post documented the hate back in 2016, nine years ago. Apparently, that hatred and violence tendencies among many liberals is still alive…and dangerous:
Bill Sift is the Chairman of the Lenawee County, Michigan Democratic Party.
He recently posted on Facebook that immigration officials are “Nazi Collaborators.”
But he was just getting warmed up since he went on to post that Trump supporters “Should be arrested, and they should be facing the death penalty. They should be hanged by the neck until dead. I believe this is one of the few areas of law where I believe the death penalty should be imposed.”
Liberals often like to paint themselves as loving, tolerant, and open to different opinions. As the above post and this wack job’s attitude, nothing could be further from the truth. He talks about Nazi’s but then does a perfect imitation of Nazi behavior: round up and kill those that you do not like. Hypocrisy to the nth degree.
3)Immediately after Trump took office, he directed immigration officers to start rounding up violent and criminal illegal immigrants. As we have discussed far too many times, many of the over ten million illegal immigrants Biden allowed to walk into the country were murderers, rapists, criminals, gang members, and terrorists. Many of these violent people committed horrible crimes across the country against innocent American citizens.
Let’s discussed just one of these individuals that have been apprehended just days after Trump took office:
Cesare Polanco is an illegal immigrant from the Dominican Republic.
He was convicted in 2007 for the heinous murder of his pregnant wife, an act of violence he committed in front of her young son, as reported by the Boston herald.
He was recently taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
He was released back into society after serving only 17 years of what was supposed to be a life sentence.
But ICE was never told of his release by local authorities so he had freedom to walk the streets again until ICE finally caught up with him.
Killing a pregnant woman, in front of her son, and he somehow gets released. Fortunately, it does not appear he had yet injured or harmed any other citizens before he was apprehended.
4)Jennifer Granholm was the Secretary of Energy in the Biden regime. But not unexpectedly, she had her own little corruption scandal just before she lost her job:
Just before she got fired, she earmarked billions and billions of dollars in Department of Energy funds to be spent in her home state of Michigan.
This was done despite the warning from her own inspector general to suspend this particular program due to, ready for it, “conflict of interest.”
When she ran for the governor's office in Michigan a number of years ago, lo and behold, some of the companies who donated to her campaign just happened to be the same people who received her Department of Energy gifts.
She awarded $22.9 billion worth of loan guarantees to utility companies across 12 states to develop green energy sources.
Over 50% of that money was awarded to DTE Energy and Consumers Energy, two companies that just so happen to be located in her home state of Michigan and who had contributed campaign funds to her previous election campaign, what a coincidence!
But she was still not done, she then gave away $13 billion worth of taxpayer wealth to the Michigan Potash Company to help fund a fertilizer plant in Michigan.
DTE Energy gave over $34,000 to her 2006 governor campaign and the CEO of the company at that time personally donated $3,400 to the campaign.
And, another coincidence, Granholm appointed him to the state's Early Childhood Investment executive Committee.
Consumer Energy’s PAC gave her campaign $25,000.
Brandon Hofmeister, an executive with the company at that time, eventually served as Granholm’s energy and policy advisor and legal counsel when she was governor.
Meanwhile, the inspector general was strongly against all of this, and other Department of Energy funding projects, since the Department was not complying with conflict of interest rules and this created a “significant risk of fraud.”
For example, the Loan Programs Office director, Jigar Shahmm, according to the Washington Free Beacon reporting, held a financial stake in Plug Power and yet, that company got a $1.7 billion loan from the Biden administration through the Loan Programs efforts.
More corruption from the most corrupt and inept Presidential administration in a very, very long time.
4)The following should not surprise any American who drives a car:
Biden finished off his Presidency by saddling Americans with the highest average gas prices in history.
In June, 2022, the national average gas price reached its highest level in history at $4.929 a gallon.
Between January 2021, and December 2024, according to the U.S. Energy Information association, the average cost for a gallon of gas in the country was $3.45, the highest average ever.
Really no surprise here. Biden’s failed economic policies resulted in skyrocketing costs across the board, be it gas, food, mortgages, rent costs, etc. Maybe that is why the number of homeless Americans reached a record 770,000 people in 2024, as reported by the Biden administration, a whopping 17% higher than the year before, people just cannot afford to live.
Enough insanity for today: Biden’s high gas prices, Biden’s Department of Energy corruption, an illegal immigrant and convicted murder roams the streets, A Democratic Nazi accuser imitates the Nazis, and a Florida Democratic operative gets busted for child perversion.
