Did you know Biden wants to get rid of something called "stepped up basis"??? How does this affect you! When your parents pass and leave you the family house normally you would inherit that property at what it is worth today.

@NC_Governor let me tell you something you son of a bitch. I’m not even going to get into a “political discussion” here because that is a whole issue which I’m not going to waste time on right now but where do you get the fuckin balls to use an Incident that the “Radical Left...

Some random reflections on yesterday:

As a mob stormed the U.S. Capitol--the legislative center of the world's superpower--I couldn't ignore the significance of the date.

For one, this was the traditional date of the Epiphany, when Christ was revealed to the nations with the coming of the Magi.

Here you have nobles traveling a long way to pay homage to a baby who was born with nothing, wrapped in rags and laid in a a feeding trough. Our God came in humility and peace.

It's also the Optional Memorial of St. André Bessette--a Quebecois, religious brother, barely five feet tall, a doorman too "lowly" to be a priest.

HOW IT ENDS: The heated partisan politics of Capitol Hill will jump to scorching today, when TRUMP’s staunchest GOP allies will launch a formal, public and futile effort to keep him in power by overturning the results of the Nov election. w/⁦Lillis⁩

The extraordinary gambit has convulsed the Capitol in the final days of Trump's reign and cleaved the GOP into warring factions - divisions that will bear long-lasting implications for both the future direction of the GOP and the success of ambitious 2024 hopefuls.

Such challenges have been tried before, but not on this scale: At least 13 Senate Republicans and more than 100 House Republicans are expected to vote to reject certification of Joe Biden’s EC victory

With Trump agitating his base and threatening to recruit primary challengers to run against disloyal lawmakers, many Republicans, particularly in the House, feel that it would be political suicide to defy him.

“We don’t have a choice,” said one.

I clearly & categorically condem the violence that we witnessed in the Capitol building in Washington yesterday during the meeting of the Electors. I believe that the election was rigged& Trump was robbed but violence in any shape or form has no place in a democratic setting.1/

..All matters concerning the American Presidency ought to be resolved in a peaceful manner & I am glad that President Donald Trump had the presence of mind to tell the protesters to disperse and go home. As much as I love @realDonaldTrump and believe that he was cheated out..2/

..of the election I will not support any action from his supporters that would disturb the peace, jeopardise life & property or lead to a civil war in America. Those of us that love & believe in him fought a good fight & stood firm, regardless of the odds& the insults, right..3/

..to the end. It is time to accept the reality of a Biden presidency and move on. We must not let this matter divide and destroy America and indeed the world any further. This is the time to build bridges and come together. This is the time to emulate great men like..4/

...Nigeria's @GEJonathan, let things go & maintain the peace for the sake of all. In 2015 he was robbed & rigged out of the election too but he refused to urge his supporters to indulge in violence, he conceeded his right to fight till the end & he put the peace, safety and..5/

The betrayal yesterday is of no surprise to me. I had hoped for the best, but truly expected his worst, and that’s what we got.

#JudasPence was necessary to finish setting up the trap. I believe we are in the last few moments before we actually SPRING the trap.

This centenary year has seen a resurgence in publishing of books and pamphlets by the Communist Party. 📚

It has been a year where we discovered much about our history and the members who contributed so much to the shaping of the modern union, women's, anti-racist anti fascist, anti-imperialist and peace movements.

A year in which the Party talked for itself rather than let others define our history, or describe our policy.
A vibrant struggle of ideas; communists as builders of peoples movements and of struggle for improvement in the daily lives of workers, their families and communities.

It is the Communist Party that, for 100 years, has never lowered the Red Flag of socialism. There have been some high points in the year, not least a requirement to go for a fourth pressing of our programme, the Britain's Road to Socialism, since March.

And of course there was the Centenary for Socialism launched at a 'Making History' live event.

We are proud that the following publications, in addition to clearly setting out our line of march, are of a high standard of research and are well-written and designed.

It seems to me people are deliberately ignoring the differences between elections and referendums.

Referendums are single issue votes that have seismic impacts. Massive change is enacted if change wins.

That is why they cannot be every few years.

Uncertainty kills economy.

Here it is, abridged, and with pictures:

"I have listened to everyone else’s hatred, rhetoric and outright lies for the last four years, so now I am having my say.

For those nationally talking about Marjorie Taylor Green, allow me to point something out:

1) @DNI_Ratcliffe and Chris Miller the director of @DeptofDefense with the @realDonaldTrump at the #armyvsnavy game Sat (Dec 12th) and hand delivered the #EO13848 report on election interference.

How many more Temples (oops sorry Capitols and Court Houses) are going to be fenced off in the US ?
Asking for a fren . 😎

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (7) After an incoherent ramble about his plan to march to the Capitol, an agitated & impaired Trump returns to Space Force, VA Cares, the stale old lines from 2019 super-spreader rallies."

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (8) Trump is switching subject from grievance to grievance, from "bad things" to "it was a setup," & "Hillary Clinton is very unhappy because they didn't change votes for her." Unhinged, paranoid, delusional.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (9) Trump shouts out that the Georgia Senate election last night was rigged, fixed, corrupt, "and Kelly & David didn't have a chance." Then he repeats for 3rd time how he won every state in a landslide, but was robbed.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (10) Trump yells that "if we had just won 3 of the 7 states in question, we would be President, & the only backline we have's the veto of the President of the United States." No telling what he meant. Incoherent, strange.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (11) Trump continues his jacked up rant, falsely claiming Loeffler & Perdue were cheated because of the rigged voting machines. Says he has hundreds of pages of evidence he wants to read. He's out of touch with reality.
