Kamala’s Economic Agenda: Communism

In an opinion piece in the Washinton Post, the author notes the following: “In a news release Wednesday, her campaign (Kamala’s) said the first 100 days of her presidency would include the ā€œfirst-ever federal ban on price gouging on food and groceries ā€” setting clear rules of the road to make clear that big corporations canā€™t unfairly exploit consumers to run up excessive corporate profits on food and groceries.ā€ccording to a release from her campaign, the biggest issue.”

Haven’t we (the U.S.) seen price controls before, and how did that work out?

The author also provides a little advice to Kamala’s campaign: when your opponent calls you a communist, perhaps you shouldn’t respond with a communist plan.

Government Economic Data

Yeah, it is about as reliable as the MSM.

Supreme Court hammers the Administrative State

As you may have heard, the Supreme Court issued an opinion overturning what is known as the Chevron deference. The MSM and Democrats are going crazy as a result of the 6-3 decision. In the dissent, Justice Kagan went after the majority saying this was a power grab by the judicial branch.

Is it?

My perspective is that the decision does nothing but force congress to do its job. If a law is not clear, those who made the law should clarify it, not some government agency. Do you really think that we the people get the benefit of the doubt in that situation? Not a chance.

Realistically, the Court has been ignoring Chevron for the last few years. This decision merely returns to congress what it needs to be doing: making clear and concise law.

House Passes 2-year Warrantless Search

As reported at Instapundit, the incompetent and impotent House Republicans passed a 2-year FISA extension allowing the government to spy on you without a warrant. ā€œSpeaker Mike Johnson scaled back the measure to two years from five after Donald J. Trump had urged Republicans to ā€˜killā€™ it. An effort to require warrants to search for Americansā€™ messages failed on a tie.” I guess that is a sign that the intelligence agencies are so incompetent overseas that they will just focus on those who oppose the regime here in the U.S.

Oh wait. Maybe this is why they are letting terrorists and undocumented people into the country illegally. Get all of them here, and spy on them while they are here given they suck in international intelligence gathering. Yeah, that must be it because those in our government are so smart and want to do what is best for the average citizen.

Remember, our taxes pay for this incompetence.
