We have spent a lot of recent posts discussing the race to bankruptcy court that many state and city governments are involved in and the massive and disturbing fraud that has infested just about every government program, stealing billions and billions of taxpayer dollars. However, the ongoing stupidity, ignorance, and greed of the American political class has continued unabated and we will try to bring readers up-to-date on what they are screwing up now:
1)Wes Moore is the governor of the state of Maryland. In a recent interview he showed what a weak, shallow parent he also is:
He indicated that he would allow his underaged son to undergo a sex change procedure if that is what the kid wanted.
Forget about any long term consequences of pumping up a kid with chemicals and hormones, if that is what the young kid wants that is what the good governor would allow to happen.
His exact words: “You know, it’s my son, so I love him regardless. And he's always going to have my undying love. That's me, right? I want to make sure that I'm involved in understanding where he is, how he's feeling, the way he's feeling, why he thinks it's important. If this is a journey that he wants to go down, I want him to always be comfortable in his own skin, and I want him to always know that he has a partner in me to help him along that journey.”
When asked if he would encourage his son to wait until he was 18 years old and legally an adult, he said he would not get in the way of his son’s wishes: “If this is how he is feeling, and I feel like I'm closely tied to him, I'm not going to advise him on something that he feels is right. The most important thing to me is that I want him to feel safe in his own skin, safe in his own decision-making, but also know that at 14 years old, I want to be involved in that process as well.”
What pathetic parenting and leadership. It seems that if his son wanted to snort cocaine or get drunk on alcohol he would support that decision also if that is the “journey that he wants to go down.” In fact, doing cocaine once or getting drunk once is much safer than getting a sex change operation that would have long, and possibly life long, downsides and implications. Being a parent is being a parent to your kid, not a friend and associate to them. Again, pathetic parenting.
2)We have talked about the following topic in a previous post but let’s update the shenanigans of the Virginia politicians. Rather than make inefficient government programs more efficient or make stupid and ineffective government programs and spending go away, they would prefer to take the easy governing route, just raise taxes. The list of items and services they want to start taxing is long and will hurt affordability of living in the state for EVERYONE:
Gym memberships.
Streaming services such as Netflix.
Storage facilities.
Counseling,
Dry cleaning.
Vehicle repair.
Website design.
Data storage.
These new taxes would be on top of the existing taxes such as income taxes, sales taxes, property taxes, and state income taxes. If the state political class is not careful, it may join the list of states and cities that are committing financial suicide by raising taxes over and over, driving out residents and business to more tax friendly states and cities.
The hypocrisy of this whole taxation insanity is if the legislation passes these new taxes, Spanberger, the new governor, would be faced with a dilemma: she campaigned on a promise to make living in Virginia more affordable. But signing off on these new taxes would certainly make her look like either a hypocrite or outright liar since starting up at least eight new taxes on products and services most residents need makes Virginia more unaffordable.
3)Eric Swalwell used to be a U.S.Congressman. Eric Swalwell used to be a Congressman who allegedly had an affair with a Communist Chinese operative. Eric Swalwell used to be a candidate for the governorship of California. Eric Swalwell had to resign from Congress due to alleged sexual harassment and predatory behavior.
But the accusations of improper and quite disgusting behavior from a former member of Congress just keeps on coming:
Although he recently resigned from Congress due to multiple accusations of sexual assault including rape, the flow of new allegations keeps on coming.
According to Gateway Pundit reporting, there are reports of more women coming forward to accuse Swalwell of allegedly sending explicit sexual content to them including videos of him pleasuring himself.
He used Snapchat to send the videos.
According to CNN: “Former Democratic congressman Eric Swalwell was accused by multiple women of sending sexual messages, including ‘videos of him masturbating,’ after becoming one of the first members of Congress to join Snapchat in an effort to restore ‘faith’ in ‘democracy.’”
Furthermore, CNN said that “more than a dozen” women said Swalwell made them feel uncomfortable, both in person and online, over many years.
And despite all of this embarrassment and despicable behavior, other news sources allege that Swalwell is still communicating with former interns.
Unbelievable that a member of Congress could have such an alleged low life. The complete write up of his behaviors can be accessed at the following link:
4)Unfortunately, when many politicians open their mouths you wonder how they ever got into positions of power in the government, given their wide ranging ignorance.
The queen of such behaviors over the past few years has been Congresswoman. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Her verbal idiocy is too wide ranging to review here but one of her most famous ignorant gaffes was when she claimed that the U.S. government had three parts: the Executive branch, the House of Representatives, and the Senate. Apparently, the Supreme Court does not make her top three list. The background on her lack of knowledge on this topic can be accessed at the following link:

But a recent sign of ignorance from a Pennsylvania candidate for the House of Representatives comes pretty close to a typical Ocasio-Cortez screw up:
The candidate in question is Dr. Ala Sanford.
In a recent NBC interview in Philadelphia, she was asked to explain her position that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) department should be abolished and if so, who would be responsible for enforcing existing immigration laws.
First off, she had no answer as witnessed by this response: “That’s a good question…And you can…I just want to think about it.”
So, she wants to get rid of ICE but has no answer on how to do their function.
When pressed for an answer, she came up with this word salad: “Who do I think should be in charge of enforcing immigration laws? Not the executive branch. So not the president. It belongs with Congress.”
Which is where her true ignorance comes out since it is very clear in the Constitution that the executive branch/the President is to execute laws passed by Congress, Congress has nothing to do with executing laws it passes.
Much like Ocasio-Cortez did not know the three branches of government, this candidate for Congress does not know how the Constitution works. It makes you wonder how these people get nominated and sometimes elected in the first place, so ignorant of basic Constitutional tenets that they are supposed to uphold.
The interview can be accessed at:
What did we learn today: a candidate for congress does not understand the Constitution, Swalwell may be more despicable than previously known, Virginia politicians are about to go tax crazy, and the governor of Maryland is a lousy parent.
