Don't overlook the possibility that the objective here is actually to create enough chaos and anger to spark a riot. This will be the pretext to declare martial law and suspend elections - indefinitely. Just as COVID was beginning to look like a permanent emergency - only with this they can pretend that most anything more than a church revival is a "riot" and the angry reaction will justify prolonging martial law indefinitely

Is Biden really bailing out colleges and universities? The left owns education; rich, white, liberal, progys own education. College attendance has been dropping since 2010.

The reality is the colleges and universities got the money, it's the government that is being paid back. But if the money will always flow, their demand for money and the limitless supply of money will spiral up prices. More money for liberal progys, more money for the Democrat party.

Biden is counting on moderates being too stupid, and yes stupid not just ignorant, and buying the narrative he is helping the common man, the blue collar, the tradesman, the backbone of America.

Never mind they probably went to a trade school and don't have debt. Even a vast number of IT professionals have certificates, not college degrees.

Please forgive my pessimism. What if the Freeloaders and malcontents outnumber the hard workers in our society? But I hope that Erick's prediction is right.

Well, now it looks like Biden is going to relieve student debt in an attempt to up his approval numbers. I wonder if this will have a reverse outcome. I paid for my college degree 35 years ago by working evenings and weekends loading tractor trailers. Backbreaking work. I am certain that I (and millions of Americans like me) will not get any benefit from this except higher taxes. A lot of people are going to be extremely upset if this happens.

Biden is playing the rich, white liberal, progy card. 90% of the debt he would transfer to the public balance sheet is held by these folks, making $100k.

These folks are the least impacted by the inflation, energy cost, food cost. They are happy to tell everyone else how they should live and behave by voting Democrar.

Remember the old fable of "Flounder, Flounder in the Sea"?

An old fisherman caught an enchanted flounder that could talk...and when he asked him to release him, the old fisherman thought "Well, I've never caught a fish that could talk before, he must be magical", so he released him.

The fisherman's wife got angry with him and said he should have asked for a favor from the fish to improve their lives, for they were living in a hovel, and so he did "Flounder, flounder in the sea, come for my wife Ilsebill, wishes what I dare not tell"...and the flounder granted her wishes. First she wanted to be rich, then to be King, then to be Emperor, then to be Pope...and each time her wish was granted.

Then she wanted to be God, and found herself back in the hovel she was in to start with.

The left needs to remember that story...you ask for too much, you just might find yourself losing it all.

The Left isn't asking. They are demanding and if their demands aren't met the cry "Racist!" and try to have you fired, close your business, or take you to court. They cannot stand someone living their lives successfully ignoring them.

All true, but I'm not hopeful. I've lost several close friends and/or family members to cancer, and what worries me the most about liberal ideology is how close the parallels are. With cancer patients, the diagnosis is followed by treatment, then (hopefully) remission, yet it's rare that the patient bounces back to a pre-diagnosis level of health. Instead, they plateau a little weaker and a little more vulnerable. If the cycle continues and the cancer returns, another round of treatment leaves them weaker still, until ultimately they succumb after multiple cycles. Likewise, every time the left comes into power, they leave us a little weaker and a little more vulnerable. In the absence of a "miracle drug" - i.e., a liberal purging of our education system, for instance - we will ultimately succumb.

I like the analogy.

Every 7 years every cell in our bodies has literally died and been replaced. We are physically the same but different. The wonder of DNA replication.

Cancer is a cell that does not replicate true.

The founding of America is the original body, the Constitution the institutions for the DNA. Not an explicit recipe, but a framework. And we have 50 states that have some autonomy.

I agree, the left owns education, and has been indoctrinating for generations. Moving further away from the Constitution, the principles the country was founded on, that created the greatest country on the planet in the shortest time ever.

Conservatives can't use the left's tactics and not become the left. The cure is less Federal Government control and more state and local government control. Liberals believe in one country and one world government, because control requires conformity.

I wish I could punch the "like" button several times for this one...very well said!

I'd believe John Kerry if he would remove natural gas from all of his homes and he quit using fossil fuels. Then I would believe he was serious and he somewhat believed what he is selling.

Great title and an excellent description of insanity and chaos.

What we need to remember as we take back the keys to the kingdom in Congress is that in 1994 everyone thought, "This is it! We are going to fix EVERYTHING!" and they didn't. The GOP campaigned for a decade on repealing Obamacare...and they didn't. They aren't going to do anything this time either. We just need to make sure we don't change things in a permanent fashion that enable the Left to destroy the country when they retake power, and they will before another decade is out. Do not give the GOP any power you wouldn't want the Democrats to have because eventually, they will. Count on it.

You are SPOT-ON, Mark! 2010 Was my awakening, when Speaker John Boehner and a Republican-controlled House refused to act on Obamacare. The House controls the purse strings, so even though Obamacare was passed into law the House could have refused to fund it. Instead, Boehner chose to play ball, claiming "there's nothing we can do." Then came a Republican Senate in 2014. And to your point, still nothing changed.

Yes, and I think it’s because Republicans have been very concerned about how they are viewed by the leftist media. They must get over this.

The Left does this again and again. Whenever they get enough control, they push too hard and too far on an agenda the majority of Americans do not support. And they continue to believe they are in the right and that the rest are just too stupid to understand their brilliance. Remember Einstein's definition of insanity? The Leftives it.

America is rejecting progressivism because it is a failure in real life - unless you consider collective misery a success.

Yep! Keeping praying for people to do the right thing!

You are right on for all you covered. I do have to add though that the left is going to pump way more money into this elections with Soro's and all his rich friends giving their support. And as people on the right, we need to know they will cheat as much as they can get away with, and that really needs to be controlled by the right. The last election was bad, this one will be worse. We need bills in every state like Florida just put in place.

Blessings to all

Don, you took my comment right out of my mouth (keyboard)! What is the "aggressive plan" Democrats will pursue to mitigate losses? Anyone who thinks the 2020 election was shady at best, stolen at worst, will stand AMAZED at the level of fraud and media cover-up that is coming in November. And how do we know this is true? Because people like OAC are already making noises about invalid elections now. After the Dems get their a$$ handed to them in November, they'll be screaming about "stolen" elections and "voter suppression." Brace for a new wave of riots, lies, evil folks. It's coming
