Massachusetts AG Andrea Campbell spent nearly $300,000 on her taxpayer-funded credit card last fiscal year, with expenses ranging from traveling to France and a balmy Caribbean island to hosting an annual holiday party, a Herald analysis shows. https://t.co/jwLz9h9PwI
[AMERICANTHINKER] For two decades, Barack Obama That’s just how white folks will do you.... has demonstrated, through words and deeds, that his deference is toward no one other than himself. This is a man who behaves as if he were ordained to deliver America from the faults of the forty-two presidents that preceded him and to straighten out any president who succeeds him. That's why it took the former Commander-in-Chief a whole seven days of being subjected to prison memes and accusations of ''treason'' to manifest public indignation over being perceived as anything less than Messianic.
Barack Obama pretends that he would never levy a war against the U.S. or take up arms against the American people. However,
the hip bone's connected to the leg bone... by providing material support to a party at war with the Constitution, it appears he would, and he has. The only difference is that Obama's weapons of warfare are political subterfuge, deceit, and manipulation.
Partial to what constitutes ''misinformation'' and what does not, the former president defended himself against the recent controversial accusations coming from the Trump administration. In response to Donald Trump ...His ancestors didn't own any slaves... 's statement that Obama and his band of sleazy warriors committed ''treason'' during and after the 2016 presidential election, the former president sent out a spokesperson to address what he is calling ''a desperate distraction,'' ''misinformation,'' and ''bizarre allegations.''
Obama is reacting because the current Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, recently declassified documents revealing that he was integral in a plan to cover up intel gathered by then-Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, that proved Russia tried but could not exercise influence over the 2016 election. Because the intelligence did not serve the left's goal to diminish Donald Trump in the eyes of the nation, the then-president of the United States chose instead to cover up the facts. In place of making the truth about Russian non-interference public, acting under his guidance and approval, Obama and his administration coordinated a treacherous plot to promote the idea that Russia was the only reason Trump defeated Hillary.
After being exposed this week as untrue, Obama had this to say about the contents of the declassified document Gabbard made public:
Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes. These findings were affirmed in a 2020 report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, led by then-Chairman Marco Rubio ...The diminutive 13-year-old Republican U.S. Senator from Florida, Secretary of State in the second Trump administration....
That statement is pure Barack Obama, defensive, imperious, tacitly demeaning, and a snide reiteration of truth. A clever one that he is, Obama even threw in ''widely accepted conclusion,'' as well as citing Trump's Secretary of State Marco Rubio for good measure.

There’s more proof of Dem messing with the Michigan vote than there is to support Ibama’s Russia assertions.

How about if Gabbard or Bondi review the old Fast and Furious scandal in which Baraq claimed executive privilege to keep congressional investigators from seeing certain documents? That might be interesting.

[TOWNHALL] Interim US Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba was almost booted from her job. Last week, federal judges voted to reject extending her tenure, opting to elevate her deputy, Desiree Leigh Grace, for the job. It was planned to take effect once Habba's 120-day interim appointment expired. The Trump Justice Department wasn't going to let that slide. Attorney General Pam Bondi fired Grace, saying this administration doesn't abide by the rulings of rogue judges.
Now, Ms. Habba is *acting* US Attorney for New Jersey. She's staying—rogue judges are hardest hit (via NYT):
The Justice Department on Thursday cleared the way for Alina Habba to remain in her role as the top federal prosecutor in New Jersey.
Ms. Habba's tenure as interim U.S. attorney was set to expire on Friday. But she announced on social media on Thursday that she would be New Jersey's acting U.S. attorney.
The decision will allow Ms. Habba to lead the New Jersey office for at least the next 210 days.
President Trump had previously nominated Ms. Habba to be U.S. attorney in a permanent capacity, which under the law would have precluded her from serving as acting U.S. attorney. But a front man for the Justice Department said Thursday that the White House had withdrawn her nomination, allowing her to serve as acting U.S. attorney.
A White House front man, Harrison Fields, said in a statement that, ''President Trump continues to have full confidence in Alina Habba and her commitment to serve the people of New Jersey.''

^It doesn't matter. The judges got "cute" and tried to fire Trump's choice and their choice was mowed down in the crossfire. Its a real "It Sucks To Be You!" moment for her...
[NYPOST] The Democratic National Committee (DNC (If you're white you ain't right!) ...Democrat National Committee, where all those off-the-wall talking points originate... ) drew widespread mockery Thursday over a since-deleted social media post that showed how the cost of groceries skyrocketed under former President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. You're a lyin' dog-faced pony soldier... The X post included a graph of soaring cheese, alcohol, dairy, grocery, produce and meat prices dating back to October 2019, with the major inflection point being near the start of the Biden administration in 2021.
''Trump's America,'' read the tweet shared by @TheDemocrats ...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy,white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects... ''Prices are higher today than they were on July 2024 all in major categories listed below,'' read the caption on the graphic, which did not note the source of the data.
The White House rapid response X account seized on the post — adding a ''Biden'' label with two arrows pointing to the price jumps under the previous administration.
The Biden-era price surges — highlighted in red by the White House — took up the majority of the graph, whereas the more stable cost of goods under Trump was only a sliver of the chart.
Several people on social media pointed out the ''self-own'' by the Democratic Party.
''I don't know — Kinda looks like Biden's America,'' X user Matthew Rosario noted.
Conservative podcaster Kyle Becker described the tweet as ''one of the dumbest posts in @X history,'' noting that the DNC deleted it ''after getting ratioed into oblivion.''
Popular X personality ''Greg'' said the tweet ''might be the biggest self-own I've ever seen on this website.''
Under Biden, inflation surged to rates unseen since the early 1980s, peaking at an annual rate of 9.1% in June 2022 — 17 months after he took office.
By the end of Biden's term in the White House, the cost of food had ballooned more than 22% from the time he took the oath of office, federal data shows.
Meanwhile,
...back at the pond, the enormous newt was trying to decide if Gloria was edible... under Trump, food prices have increased by about 0.6% since January.

So the LSD's mistakenly admit they caused it.
Our food package costs jumped about 18% to 21% and the package contents sizes conveniently changed as the shelves became bear, and then started to reappear. Now we see even the content ingredients have changed also.
Now to add to it, many local governments have stepped in, and jack up the property taxes based on the inflated housing prices. Houses that are slow to sell because the Federal Reserve is keeping the Home Loan prices high.
Either way, nothing tastes the same, and the COLA's never kept up with real costs.
I figure we roughly lost 15+% of our buying income to higher cost of living issues caused by the LSD's.

That was positively the dumbest attempt to smear anyone that I have seen. The morons provide a graph of their incompetence.

The background problem here is they didn't know how bad they had screwed everything up. Totally unaware.
Whether it was immigration, consumer goods, the economy, jobs, the military or whatever. They had a 'brilliant' idea that they knew a better way, and just did it. Didn't matter if it worked or not, do it some more.
It's kinda like going to your kiddies' play dinner, being given a mudpie, and you're supposed to pretend to like it.

They have no idea whatsoever how to read a graph — I am truly shocked. This goes well beyond DEI to base nepotism — give a job to the dropout druggie nephew to keep your demanding sister happy. Even Hunter isn’t this dumb.
[NYPOST] President Trump signed an executive order Thursday calling on states and cities to end ''endemic vagrancy'' — and rehouse homeless people, including drug addicts and those suffering from mental problems, in ''treatment centers.''
The order redirects federal funding to prioritize ''shifting homeless individuals into long-term institutional settings for humane treatment through the appropriate use of civil commitment.''
On average, more than 274,000 people were sleeping on the streets each night last year under President Joe Biden, the order says.
“The overwhelming majority of these individuals are addicted to drugs, have a mental health disorder, or both,” the document says.
“The Federal Government and the States have spent tens of billions of dollars on failed programs that address homelessness but not its root causes, leaving other citizens vulnerable to public safety threats.”
Trump has complained for years about homeless encampments along major roads in Washington, DC, and proposed reopening insane asylums to house the nation’s most dangerous street people.
It was not immediately clear how much funding would be steered toward the new initiative, or whether there would be a parallel effort to reopen long-shuttered institutions as a public safety strategy.
The order identifies “assisted outpatient treatment” as an option in addition to “institutional treatment.”
States and municipalities that already crack down on open illicit drug use and urban camping, loitering or squatting, and tracking sex offenders, will be prioritized for grants.
“President Trump is delivering on his commitment to Make America Safe Again and end homelessness across America,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
“By removing vagrant criminals from our streets and redirecting resources toward substance abuse programs, the Trump Administration will ensure that Americans feel safe in their own communities and that individuals suffering from addiction or mental health struggles are able to get the help they need.”
Tent cities that have particularly upset the president sprang up during his first term between the Kennedy Center and the White House, in an area his motorcade traverses on the way to and from his northern Virginia golf course.
Another rat-infested encampment lasted for years in McPherson Square just north of the White House, spooking passersby who regularly spotted occupants staggering around, conversing with themselves and urinating on lampposts.
Trump griped that the grim scenes in DC were on display for visiting world leaders — and DC Mayor Muriel Bowser’s administration has since conducted whack-a-mole camp clearances in the capital’s core.
The Supreme Court ruled last year in a 6-3 decision that localities have a right to impose fines on homeless people who camp without permission on public property.

They have to go to rehab. The only way they go to rehab is if they are faced with jail. All the companionate stuff is just adding pillows and chairs to what should be rock bottom. Stop helping them build a gutter lifestyle and then complain about when they OD and die. If you are giving them a debit card, you are the problem.

My wife worked in adult probation for ten years and reported only the rehab or jail choice reduced repeat visits to the judges.

"Ridiculous" The Supreme Court ruled last year in a 6-3 decision that localities have a right to impose fines on homeless people who camp without permission on public property.

Rehab only works for the druggie side of the equation, not the untreated mentally ill, or the self-treating-with-street-drugs mentally ill, many of whom are on the street because they refuse treatment. And rehab is only a temporary fix unless the addict in question truly wants to be sober instead of soberly craving the high of his or her drug of choice.
Make one side of the the insane asylums a rehab facility, and the other side long term residence for those drug addicts uninterested in sobriety and the mentally ill who cannot be medicated to independent functionality for whatever reason.

The order redirects federal funding to prioritize ''shifting homeless individuals into long-term institutional settings for humane treatment through the appropriate use of civil commitment.''
I think the key here is civil commitment. If they are truly mentally ill and sleeping on the sidewalks or in the river beds, society has a right to have them "committed" to some kind of institution where they can at least sleep in a bed with a roof over their heads and pee in a pot instead of outdoors in public places. Call it a loony bin if you will and, yes, it will cost money. But it's the only humane solution and it's the only solution that will get them off the streets where they are a menace to society.
And if they are just druggies or if they are just plain bums, put them in tent cities out in the boondocks. If they get out after 30 days and get arrested again then they go back to the tent city for 90 days and then a year. Rinse and repeat. Three strikes and they get to live in the tent city for the rest of their lives. Give them water, apples, baloney sandwiches and absolutely nothing else. No cigarettes. alcohol, drugs, TV or internet. Maybe they can visit a library once in a while. If they can do some kind of work while they're incarcerated they can have a hamburger and french fries.
The politicians in California use the homeless as an excuse to claim that we need more affordable housing. But that's just a scam and the politicians are crooks. Give a hobo a house and the developer gets rich and the politicians get kickbacks in the form of campaign contributions. The house will be destroyed and the hobo will still have all the same problems he or she had when the house was given to them. Those problems must be treated in an institutional setting where the hobo cannot escape. The treatment cannot be voluntary, it must be imposed whether the hobo likes it or not.

Only one problem. It's a sure bet that some crooked politician or NGO will sue and some Obama appointed judge will declare Trump's EO unconstitutional.
