From nothing more than reading the article off the top of my head I would say this is correct.

ccp:  we are doing better then all other countries in the world
not mentioned no we are not:

Plus, that wasn't the bar.  We're supposed to be leader of the free world.

Where are we leading them?

Global Debt was 226 trillion in Biden's first year, 2021.

Global Debt hits record 307 trillion in Biden's 3rd year, Sept 2023.

This is while the world is climbing out of Covid shutdowns.

Global debt hits new record high of 313 trillion, Feb 2024.

If we are leading the world, it is downward. 

Bidenomics  =  Debt -onomics

Biden's going to pay off student loans?  No he's not.  He's not paying off anything.  He's taking us further and further down a debt hole.  Why do young people let him lie to them?

We used to joke the motto on our business card was: 'We're no worse than our competitors', to see if that would sell.

Biden's line is, 'you may be screwed by real wages falling for 4 years, but we're no worse than the rest of the world, Zimbabwe, Haiti and so on'.

'We're willing to pay out trillions of dollars of your future years' wages for your vote today.'

Politics & Religion / Political Economics, Southwest in meltdown

ccp (paraphrase)  They're telling us the economy is great.

Cut rate airline is dropping 4 airports, reducing its fleet, canceling flights and firing 2000 employees.

My rich friends don't fly Southwest.  How does Biden get away with saying his policies, his taxes, his war on energy, his fascism level regulations will only hurt the rich, those making over 400k.

Wait.  He didn't say that?

Do airlines shrink in a growing economy?  And what did our Department of Transportation Secretary with parking meter experience say about airplane parts falling out of the sky?  I haven't heard a report.

NYT Today!

Boston University Law Professor Jed Handelsman Shugerman:

About a year ago, when Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan district attorney, indicted former President Donald Trump, I was critical of the case and called it an embarrassment. I thought an array of legal problems would and should lead to long delays in federal courts.

After listening to Monday’s opening statement by prosecutors, I still think the Manhattan D.A. has made a historic mistake. Their vague allegation about “a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election” has me more concerned than ever about their unprecedented use of state law and their persistent avoidance of specifying an election crime or a valid theory of fraud.  (Source: nytimes.com)


Exactly what WE said.
