BIDEN: "I used teach the Second Amendment in law school … From the very beginning, there were limitations. You couldn't own a cannon!"

So there are three lies here:

I used to teach the Second Amendment in law school

No, he didn’t. He never taught a single class. (source: New York Post)

From the very beginning, there were limitations

“Everything in that statement is wrong,” said David Kopel, the research director and Second Amendment project director at the Independence Institute. After 1791, “there were no federal laws about the type of gun you could own, and no states limited the kind of gun you could own.” Not until the early 1800s were there any efforts to pass restrictions on carrying concealed weapons, he said. (source: The Washington Post)

You couldn’t own a cannon.

That is false. (source: Politifact) private individuals could, and did: 

1. form their own military units, usually termed “Legions,” that included artillery units.
2. organize and charter private militia units as nonprofit corporations. On 28 October 1801, for example, Thaddeus Rice, John Hastings, James Godfrey, Reuben Rice and others incorporated a private artillery company in St. Albans, Vermont (see pages 120-21 of that state’s annual statutes to verify). On 3 November of the following year, 40 individuals did likewise in Shrewsbury, Rutland County (pps. 44-46). Other examples abound.
3. own cannon, individually and as part of mercantile partnerships, for use on their ships, for protection against pirates and for use as privateers, private ships licensed by the U.S. federal government to seize enemy ships for lawful sale, a power granted Congress in the Constitution (Article I, § 8, clause 11). During the War of 1812, more than 200 American privateers seized and sold over 1,000 British ships. See the novels George Washington’s Secret Navy, and Patriot Pirates: The Privateer War for Freedom and Fortune in the American Revolution
4. develop, manufacture, stockpile, and sell cannon to meet the demand of private individuals as well as the government. Consider an article in the Congressional Weekly Register on 7 January 1812 (pps. 342-43) complaining “that the least rumour of war” caused the market price of military goods like cannon to increase 50 to 100 percent.

Senile old piece of shit. I just have no, and I mean none, respect for this doddering old fool.

Grocery prices are 40% higher than they were pre-COVID.

An earthquake of magnitude 4.7 just hit New Jersey at about 10:30 this morning. The center is in Readington Township, about 30 miles west of New York City. My brother in law, who lives about 80 miles north of the epicenter, said that it was enough to feel the walls shake in his apartment. He lives in a two story building and said the walls were shaking.

A friend of ours who is a banking executive in NYC said he thought that the furnace in the house had exploded.

A man shot is roommate on accident when he thought that they were doing a “vigilance drill” to test each other’s reactions.

The roommates confirmed that they often conduct “drills” to stay vigilant in their surroundings by trying to get the jump on each other. Usually, the guns are not loaded, or they use nonfunctioning rounds, officials said.

This is one of those times when I think that we should just let this sort of stupidity play itself out, if for no other reason than to clean up the gene pool. Since when do you surprise each other with stupid assed stunts like this while using live, loaded weapons?

According to the Biden administration, today is an important holiday. No, he isn’t talking about Easter Sunday. That, the Whitehouse refuses to celebrate and has banned from the Whitehouse grounds because they want to transform Easter Sunday into a secular holiday.

Children of the National Guard are prohibited from submitting religious Easter egg designs for the 2024 “Celebrating National Guard Families” art event at the White House. 

OK, so that’s bad enough. My Atheist self is offended for my Christian friends. However, the President didn’t stop there. He followed that up by declaring that March 31, 2024 is the official day that the government will celebrate a Transgender Day of Visibility. Thank goodness they have a day of visibility, or I wouldn’t know that they exist.

What a direct goober being spit in the face of every Christian in the country.

This is so brazen and “in your face” that I can’t help but think they’re trying to cause a violent backlash on purpose. They are trying to pick a fight, so they can excuse the crackdown that will follow.

Fuck Joe Biden with a rusty chainsaw.

This isn’t just supposition and innuendo. It isn’t a conspiracy theory. I have come to the firm belief that the entire situation on J6 was a false flag operation, a Reichstag fire, if you will. There is enough smoke here that there must be a fire.

There is recent evidence, uncovered by Judicial Watch as a result of a FOIA request and lawsuit, that the CIA had officers and other security teams present on the grounds of the Capitol on January 6. So what, you say? The problem with that is that, according to its own website, the CIA is prohibited from operating within the borders of the US.

There is also the following:

• Members of Congress have stated that there were more than 200 Federal agents in the Capitol that day-some of the operatives were “dressed as Trump supporters” and were inside the Capitol prior to the breach.
• Five men spent hours erecting a gallows in front of the Capitol on January 5, with some of them getting coffee from a shop directly across the street from the FBI headquarters, yet the largest counterintelligence agency in the nation has no idea who they are, and isn’t even looking for them.
• After months of accusations, Ray Epps was arrested and charged with entering the Capitol. He was arrested by mail, not by a large team of armed cops, as we have seen happen with every other person charged with J6 crimes.

The morons in charge either don’t know how to run a business, or they are deliberately lying to you. Data point:

Make no mistake: President @JoeBiden and I intend to cap child care costs at $10 a day for the average family and make preschool free for all four-year-olds.

To do that, we need Congress to act.

As I have said before, price controls never work. Have you seen the price of groceries lately? Even feeding those kids will cost a huge chunk of that $10 per day. Unless you are planning on feeding these kids crackers and water all day.

Capping child care at $10 a day is only about $1.13 an hour. Since the administration also supports a minimum wage of $15 per hour, as well as free healthcare, paid family leave, paid sick leave, and other benefits, then add in the taxes, overhead, and lunch that they want included, each daycare worker would need to watch 40 to 50 children. My math below the fold.

No, the reason why they want to do this is so that all private daycare goes out of business, leaving the government to raise and look after our children, so they can expose them to more porn and propaganda. They can’t be this stupid, so it must be an attempt to lie to you in order to gain more power.

Here is the math at costs for each day, and I am lowballing this:

• Worker’s pay for a 9 hour day, minimum: $135
• Social Security, liability insurance, etc. $50
• Paid Time Off (1 day per month) $25
• Health Insurance $45
• Other HR overhead $50

Total cost for labor: $275 per day, so labor alone requires 28 children per daycare worker.

Now you have the cost of a facility and its utilities, which comes to another $130 per day:

• Rent of space for watching those 40 kids: $2000 per month
• Utilities (water, power, Internet, phone, CATV, etc.) $600 per month

There are other costs, including furnishings, toys for the kids to play with (unless you plan on having them just sit there), on top of the fact that you will have to feed them. Just to break even, your fictional daycare center will need to pull in $450 a day or so.

If you are doing the math, you are now at 45 children or more for each daycare worker.

People are at the breaking point.

In Minnesota, a proposed law would require all painting to be done by or under the supervision of a licensed painter by restricting the sale of paint in cans one gallon or larger to licensees, establish a paint contractor board, and licensing for paint contractors painters. Companies like Home Depot, Sherwin Williams, and even the local hardware store would enforce that law if it becomes one.

The politician who sponsored the bill (Erin Murphy) has a bit of a conflict of interest. Her husband owns a painting company.

Now even vending machines are watching you. It’s only a matter of time before the government harnesses this on a widespread basis.
