Isn't there a law to build the wall that congress passed years ago, albeit without funding, which Biden has now again said Nevermind to?
Is Keystone pipeline the only one that isn't being built & is under contention (again), Or is it just one that apparently hasn't paid off the proper pockets to proceed?
I still don't see why the Canadians don't build their own refinery capacity (& lumber mills). Employment for their people, and shipping less volume of high value goods instead of high volume lower value.
Oh wait, maybe it's because they priced out their labor with minimum wage law?

The oil that would flow in the Keystone pipeline will simply continue to travel on Warren Buffett's rail cars, which are more likely to cause an environmental disaster.

I was reading a humorous yet sobering Tweet from a woman whose Keystone worker husband was yelling at her over the phone for voting for Abidin' since he was more than likely going to be unemployed in the not-too-distant future.

You sow it, you mow it.

I'd place an asterisk on the 5 deaths as it doesn't seem like two heart attacks and a stroke should necessarily be counted.

Even more significant is that you can't blame Trump. In fact the incitement, that is the reason they were there and the reason they were mad, is 100% the fault and responsibility of the left/Democrats. THEY are the ones calling for violence and accusing innocent people of being racist or homophobes. THEY have been inciting riots and disrespecting the citizens for the last five years.

We demand even-handedness. Erase Capitol Riot; replace with Capitol Mostly Peaceful Protest.

#3 Henry on 2021-01-23 14:57 (Reply)

We should demand "restorative justice" for the rioters.

Compare that to how many dead and disabled keeping the US War Department occupied overseas with the US foreign security community's nation building and posturing.

Yes, I know, but is the Defense Department really about Defense since 2005?

Let's not forget to place Covid Vaccine under benefits as well.
Without DJT we would have waited another 3 years or so.

^^^This^^

President Donald J. Trump most likely saved millions (maybe billions) of lives across the world due to his "warp speed" program of creating a vaccine to protect agains the China Virus. The man is a Saint - hence the demonic reaction to his humanity.

His reward will not be of this Earth.

Should one include under Costs or Benefits the 4 1/2 years of unpaid rent for Trump living in millions of heads?

I assume the bird habitat disruption from all that screaming at the sky needs to be counted as a Cost.

In what dipshit universe is rhetoric a "cost"? Someone please remind me of who Donald Trump labeled a nazi.

#7 ccoffer on 2021-01-24 01:07 (Reply)

Considering his political views I hardly think it's honest of him to consider the economy, judges, and and cutting of regulations as benefits of the Trump presidency.

Many of Skeezy’s and Sleazy’s voters convinced themselves that they were voting for moderation. Of course, Day One’s EOs reveal the opposite. What do you expect, the Dem global corporatist agenda was derailed for four years. You gotta kill that American Dream and replace it with a very diminished and shriveled version for the new Americans being enticed across the border. The very existence of Trumpism is an existential thorn in their sides.

I wish Scott did more simple diagrams like this instead of always posting videos, which are time consuming to watch

According to press reports I have read, three people died from "medical emergencies", one died "after" being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher and one was shot to death by someone. Sounds like another night in the city.

"Arizona Republicans Stand With Trump, Censure Cindy McCain, Jeff Flake and Doug Ducey."

The Republican party has always found new ways to be the stupid party. Through no fault or credit of their own there is a HUGE unified base out there that only asks that the Republicans in congress fight for our rights. But NOOO! The Republicans are focused like a laser on destroying that unified base and giving the Democrats everything they want. Stupid, stupid party...
