The #German economic miracle is struggling, and won't come back until major changes are made internally, starting with what to put government money into as the country looks at rejiggering its infrastructure.

Charlie Kirk was gunned down yesterday right after he tried to blame transgender people for gun violence and mass murder. Nobody deserves to be shot, but he was hardly "innocent."

From a human perspective perhaps, but again, this is just another lie. Politically this is toxic. And yeah, I do think that Biden as well as others should learn that it's time they face what they caused. Where were Bidens tears for the black people still in jail because of the crime bill? Enough!

Please don't insult me. If you read the article, it mentions the fact that this is taking place against the backdrop of the Trump administration which Biden basically helped back into office with another disastrous decision.....reneging on his promise to be a one term president.

Again you are missing the point. It's not that either man is right. The point is that this must stop on both sides.

First, yes they should enforce that. Second, Biden does not have the right to lie....and I don't care about the "political attack" BS. Its the dame thing as his appalling record on the Crime Bill. Do you think he ever lost sleep over black people who ended up in jail because of him?
