“It is my absolute conviction that you’re not going to have a bipartisan bill unless you have a reconciliation bill of $3.5 trillion,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), the chairman of the Budget Committee, told reporters.
This, at its fundamental, is revenue sharing in action. The difference in spending priority between the median states and the big coastals. The median states win these battles.
The researchers estimated that, due to climate change, the ice melt rate over the course of the 21st century will be between 8,000 gigatons and 35,900 gigatons tons per century, nearly six times faster than the early-Holocene era rate.Rather alarming that the arctic is going ice free so fast.
DeSantis on new CDC guidance: Yes to freedom and no to living in a "Faucian dystopia"
Fauci is the forbidden view, if you see that talking head to turn schizo or something. Haven't seen any of the talking heads except tp see their head bob. I did listen to Biden to the whisper, his sarcasm, I found it hilarious.
“In Central America, the root causes of migration run deep—and migration from the region has a direct impact on the United States,” Harris said in a statement.

Bottom line, they now the pension subsidies are running short.

Last week, an Emerson College/Nexstar media poll showed the Gavin Newsom recall election within five points, which came as a surprise since previous polling in May found opposition to the recall beating support by double digits.
Some shrugged off the result because Emerson College/Nexstar has typically been the poll the governor performs the worst in, but on Tuesday, a brand new UC Berkeley Institute of Government Studies/Los Angeles Times poll showed the recall within three percentage points.
Newsom will win if he changes on thing about our stimulus checks. We should not have to file a 540 to get the money.
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — A former Air Force intelligence analyst was sentenced to 45 months in prison on Tuesday for leaking top secret information about the U.S. government’s drone strike program to a journalist.
Daniel Hale of Nashville, Tennessee, has said he was motivated by guilt when he disclosed to an investigative reporter details of a military drone program that he believed was indiscriminately killing civilians in Afghanistan far from the battlefield.
This is almost at crisis levels, even the cartels are killing their foes with drones. I have been telling folks about this ongoing crisis for years, detailing the problem of securing civilian drones, explaining that the NSA has been enabling unsecured drones with their spy policies. I have not revealed any secret not known by most software pros.
Why is this guy going to jail? Why not arrest the entire executive suite at Google, they have been faking the issue to protect ad sales. What are ads on search engines except drones without wings?
The topic is open for discussion, the NSA reads my blog, they know there is no cause for my arrest.
Republicans have plenty of concern about their own party, too. Fewer than half of Republicans, 41%, say they are optimistic about the GOP’s future. Just 13% say they are “very” optimistic. And one third, 33%, say they are pessimistic.
Te concern is basically from rural states and their fear is existential. Some of these states become economic basket cases at the next recession.
We are all red by a point today, so it must be sell the peak day. The ten year yield is low, a dash to safety, likely due to China problems.

Michael Flynn, the former national security adviser in the Trump administration who has repeatedly courted controversy by repeating conspiracy theories, in a new video appears to joke about using a gun on people in Washington.
Flynn makes the remark in a video where he is presented with an AR-15 rifle as a gift from an unidentified man on stage with the former top administration official.
He has a bounty on is head for conspiracy to assassinate Union Army officers.

Nancy Pelosi used to point her angry finger at Donald Trump, but she leaves him for dust when it comes to busting norms, dividing Congress and causing mayhem. If anyone is to blame for the hyper-partisanship in Washington these days, it’s the spiteful House speaker.
She behaves more like a Mafia don waging a gang war than a dignified, fair and honest presiding officer, which is what the speaker’s role requires.
Nancy's ability to walk waist deep in Swamp turds is legendary. The only thing about her that I admire, and she will be walking the Swamp Sewage to her dying day.
Republican Sen. Rob Portman (Ohio), the lead GOP negotiator on infrastructure, said Sunday that he is “not happy” about Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) plan to delay a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure deal until a larger reconciliation package is passed.
“The infrastructure bill has nothing to do with the reckless tax-and-spend extravaganza that she's talking about. ... So, no, I’m not happy with what she said because it's inconsistent with the agreement that we have on a bipartisan basis,” Portman told host George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s “This Week.”
California is not doing infrastructure and New York wants compensation for lost tax base. This is a revenue sharing issue, pure and simple.
Send me a fat check and I will support Nancy, otherwise this has no real satisfying outcome. I have resigned myself for a Nixon Shock, the issue is too difficult for the system as it is.
"We are and have agreed jointly on about roughly $70 billion of funds that were not spent that will be redeployed to help pay for this infrastructure package," Warner said. "The challenge is, Martha, you got folks who want to make big, bold statements but sometimes don't want to roll up their sleeves, get into the details and make the very hard choices about where we find these pay-fors."
Most of the Swamp is on Fed welfare as it is. The idea that the Senate is paying for this from IRS tax income is hogwash. It is being paid for with Fed tax income, seigniorage fees, and the Senate is pretending to a delusion.
Many people are turning down Covid vaccines because they are angry that President Donald Trump lost the election and sick of Democrats thinking they know what’s best.Trump supporters have problems going way beyond vaccines. Mostly they are stuck in small rural states with low gains to scale.

Pricing is an iterative process. And sometimes we make large adjustments in price during recessions. And we generally make about a quarter point revision in these stats after first release.
Here is a secret. If you remove housing and autos then the Fed is basically targeting Walmart floor prices. That means the Fed reaction function is entirely determined by the congestion at the Walmart checkout counters.
Xi’s muscular revisionism is apparently driven by his belief that China has a strategic window of opportunity that it must seize before it closes. This may explain Xi’s fiery speech during the CCP’s recent centenary celebrations, when he warned foreign forces that they would “crack their heads and spill blood” if they tried to prevent China’s rise.
Internal demands are goring, especially the bailouts. So he is grasping at external conquests to pay off the growing debt burden. Too much aggregation and there ids an army of regional CCP heads who want those resources for local use. He is fucking up, doesn't know how to hold on to power.
San Francisco is hoping to replace the long despised green trash cans littered throughout the city, as its board of supervisors voted Wednesday to approve using new designer prototype bins.
However, there’s a catch: Each new can will cost between $12,000 and $20,000, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
"$20,000 a can is ridiculous," Supervisor Matt Haney told the paper after reluctantly agreeing to the proposal.
Hey, bonehead, what is the point of running for election?
Her threat isn’t aimed at them, I realize. They’re not part of the reconciliation process. This is Pelosi talking to Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema and warning them that if they think they’re going to pull a bait-and-switch, in which Biden signs the bipartisan bill and then the two suddenly lose their appetite for the reconciliation bill, forget it. The bills are a package deal. And they’re not taking Manchin’s and Sinema’s word for it when they cross their hearts and promise they’ll do a “human infrastructure” bill after the bipartisan bridges-and-roads bill passes.

Saudi Arabia remained China’s single largest crude oil supplier in June, ahead of Russia, although Saudi shipments to the world’s top oil importer fell by 19 percent last month amid lower overall imports, according to official Chinese customs data cited by Reuters.
A close ally and former campaign adviser to former President Trump was arrested Tuesday and charged with several criminal counts over allegedly working as an undisclosed foreign lobbyist on behalf of the United Arab Emirates.
Federal prosecutors said Thomas Barrack, a wealthy private equity investor who also served as the chairman of Trump's inaugural committee, worked to influence his 2016 campaign, and later the administration, to push for policy proposals that were favorable to the UAE.
I remember Trump trading hotel deals for defense agreements. Then remembered this is same typical shit that has happened many time before. Mostly repubs doing oil deals with the Saudis.
No one expects any different behavior. And this is why New Green Deals never work.

Lords: In the UK, quantitative easing was envisaged, at the point of introduction in 2009, as a short-term measure to support the economy through the global financial crisis. However, over the last decade or so, the programme has expanded substantially, and it has become the Bank of England’s main monetary policy tool.
Mish: It was supposedly going to be short-term everywhere. It wasn't.
Who really thought it was temporary? No foolish monetary theory would predict this as temporary. Nor did any of the traders mentions in the press.

The agency is also investigating the firm.
The plot must have involved food imports somehow. I wasn't explained. Either that or DeSantis has one of his stunts in action.

Federal authorities have charged a father and son duo, both of whom served as police officers, with allegedly being among the people who joined Proud Boys members in storming the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
According to a superseding indictment unsealed Friday, authorities have charged 51-year-old Kevin Tuck and his son, 29-year-old Nathaniel Tuck, with multiple crimes, including obstruction of an official proceeding and disorderly and disruptive conduct.
The two were arrested in Tampa, Fla. and were released on a $25,000 bond Thursday, The Washington Post reported.
These two nuts had the only government job they could get and are otherwise unskilled Floridians. From the same state where Rick Scott was handing out machine guns to child killers. The same state where DeSantis wanted to run over helpless Cubans. I don't consider authoritarian nutcases to be good anarchists.
But this DeSantis is not a bright bulb and neither are his followers, but he wants to be our tin horn dictator. He is nothing but a socialist bum, like Rick Scott.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she and other House progressives would “tank” a bipartisan infrastructure bill unless Senate Democrats also pass a sweeping tax and spending measure to carry out priorities on climate change and social programs.
“House progressives are standing up,” Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, said Thursday during a virtual town hall event. “We will tank the bipartisan infrastructure bill unless we will also pass the reconciliation bill.”
Ocasio-Cortez and her allies have the means to carry out that threat. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi can afford to lose no more than four Democratic votes to get the $579 billion infrastructure plan passed in her chamber.
Hill: Republicans who voted earlier this year to impeach former President Trumpare outpacing their primary challengers in the money race.
Now, the 10 House Republicans who broke party lines in the chamber’s January impeachment vote are heading into the second half of 2021 flush with cash, financial reports filed on Thursday with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) show.
Digital ballot images made public under Georgia’s new voting law show nearly 200 ballots — including one for West — that election officials initially scanned two times last fall before a recount. There’s no indication any vote for president was counted more than once in official results.

The deal could set out standards for the digital economy, including rules on the use of data, trade facilitation and electronic customs arrangements, according to another person. It also would show the Biden administration is interested in pursuing new trade opportunities after spending its first months focused more on enforcing existing deals than advancing negotiations with the U.K. and Kenya that were inherited from the Trump administration.
Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity
The United States faces persistent and increasingly sophisticated malicious cyber campaigns that threaten the public sector, the private sector, and ultimately the American people’s security and privacy. The Federal Government must improve its efforts to identify, deter, protect against, detect, and respond to these actions and actors.
He will not be able to separate these two. The Asians know all too well that Biden supports NSA spying. NSA spying generates ransomware. The Asians want neither. This will not be resolved, a resolution is beyond the capability of the Swamp.
Meanwhile, his predecessor and fellow Democrat Jerry Brown poked a hole in Newsom’s budget bubble by calling the state’s spending “not sustainable” in an interview with NBC News Los Angeles. Brown also worried out loud about the federal government going into debt and spending “wildly.”
“We need a more frugal, sustainable, prudent way of doing business. I would predict, certainly within two years, we’re going to see fiscal stress,” he said — a prediction potentially reinforced by figures released Tuesday by the U.S. Labor Department. The Consumer Price Index, a key measure of inflation, jumped 5.4% in the year through June — marking the biggest rise since 2008.
With a few comments, he has raised the political IQ about twenty points.

National Review, failing to read their own headlines. They are like Reason magazine, unable to connect dots. David Harsanyi is the current idiot. Does NRO recruit these authors from stupid school?
Plus, the NRO failed to notice that DeSantis plans to send cars plowing through every Cuban in Miami.
Trumpsters will be making a big comeback in the election. The only catch is DeSantis' plans to kill all the Cubans.
And secession include default:
Meet the typical 40-year-old millennial, who has $128,000 in debt, is not nearly as wealthy as their parents were, and is known as 'geriatric'On April 29, 2021, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed an "anti-riot" bill into law in the wake of civil unrest that took place with George Floyd in 2020. The bill states that protestors could be arrested if a gathering could be considered a riot. Also, deems blocking a freeway as a felony and gives full immunity to persons who drive through protestors that are blocking a roadway.

Hill:Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Budget Committee Democrats, led by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), have reached a deal on a $3.5 trillion price tag for a Democratic-only infrastructure package.
Schumer, emerging from an hours-long meeting with Budget Committee Democrats, said they had reached a deal on the budget resolution — which greenlights reconciliation, the process Democrats will use to bypass a GOP filibuster on the infrastructure bill — including a $3.5 trillion top-line figure. President Biden is going to meet with Senate Democrats on Wednesday as Democrats work to lock down support for the deal.
