C’mon, Joe.

While I do not object to someone pointing out a flaw they may find in any statement I make, I do object to insinuations that the facts I give are misleading. Especially when I give documented facts – that are all public record – and Joe O’Neill’s rebuttal is filled with undocumented statements of opinion mixed in with Democrat talking points. It doesn’t pass the smell test.

If the U.S. House is controlled by Democrats, and the US Senate is a 50-50 split, there’s no getting around the fact that the tie-breaker is the Vice President. A Democrat.

Thereby giving control to Democrats.

How on God’s green earth would anyone think this country is still energy independent under the Biden administration? On January 27, 2021 Biden followed up on his campaign pledge by signing an executive order to restrict the U.S. oil and gas industries and he subsequently canceled oil and gas leases leaving us to rely on outside sources to supply our fuel needs. This wonderful country is the richest in the world with natural and fossil fuel resources and yet Biden stops it? Does this make sense? And now, while we are all struggling at the gas pumps, Biden is sending over 5 million barrels of our oil reserves to China. What?

No, Joe, we are NOT energy independent under Biden, no matter how you try to manipulate the facts.

Again, with the opinionated talking points of Republicans fighting for the wealthy and destroying middle class families, here is the real fact: The Congressional Budget Office’s May 2022 forecast shows that the government now expects to bring in more tax revenue in the decade following the 2017 Trump tax cuts than it had projected prior to the December 2017 passage of tax reform.

It doesn’t look like the tax cuts – which government scorekeepers at the time would cost $1.5 trillion over 10 years – have been anything like the fiscal nightmare that some on the left would lead us to believe.

Real median household incomes grew by more than $5,000 in 2018 and 2019 alone. By contrast, in the 30 years prior to 2017, real median household income grew by a total of $7,600, or about $250 per year. The Trump policies worked.

It was odd to equate a top government administration to a mutual fund prospectus (“Past performance is no guarantee of future results”), but hey using that same logic, does Mr. O’Neill expect Democrats, doing the bidding of the Biden administration policies to miraculously correct themselves, going from a dismal performance with the worst inflation record in our history to getting “real solutions” as long as people vote for Liberals?

If you believe the propaganda of everything going wrong in this country right now to being Putin’s fault, you’re going to be surprised in November.
