the U.S. to default on its debt in 2025, Trump or Biden it is coming anyway…

If Trump is elected president in November, he will face the U.S. government's growing debt burden. He might try to resolve the issue by defaulting.

Donald Trump knows a thing or two about defaulting on debt. His businesses have filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code at least four times to overcome excessive indebtedness: first with Trump Taj Mahal in 1991, then Trump Plaza Hotel in 1992, Trump Hotels and Casino Resorts 12 years later, and Trump Entertainment Resorts in 2009.

Moreover, Trump openly boasts about this strategy. "I have used the laws of this country just like the greatest people that you read about every day in business have…

Only Election Deniers Need Apply for Speaker

The House GOP's new litmus test

One paradox of the current House Republican majority, and a sign of the deep cleavages within it, is that having sought to overturn the 2020 presidential election can be both disqualifying and essential to becoming speaker of the House.

After Jim Jordan of Ohio's campaign to become speaker flamed out, The Washington Post reported that one reason some colleagues refused to vote for him was his vocal role in trying to prevent the inauguration of Joe Biden. Following Jordan's exit, nine Republicans announced bids for the role, seven of whom had voted not to certify the 2020 election.

The next GOP nominee, however, was Majority Whip Tom Emmer of Minnesota, who voted in favor of certifying the election. That vote-on a matter for which there was no evidence of fraud and no evidence of theft-helped doom Emmer, who withdrew without even seeing a floor vote. Former President Donald Trump, along with some allies, mobilized to block Emmer, citing his certification vote, criticism of Trump after the January 6 riot at the Capitol, and perceived weak defense of Trump amid his 91 felony charges.

The next man up is Mike Johnson of Louisiana. Some observers speculate that Johnson, the caucus's fifth choice, might actually manage to obtain the gavel in part because of fatigue: Republicans understand how bad the failure to elect a speaker is, both for governance and for public appearance. Johnson also hasn't made as many enemies as the prior nominees, in part because he's only been in Congress since 2016. But Johnson also has cachet in the MAGA fringe of the House and with Trump, because he was, as The New York Times described him last year, "the most important architect of the Electoral College objections" to certifying the election.
A certain logic dictates that the leader of the House GOP would be an election denier, because the median GOP member is. In 2021, 139 House Republicans voted not to certify the election, and 109 of them remain in the House out of 221 current total Republicans. Of the GOP members who have been newly elected since, several are election deniers. (One, Derrick Van Orden of Wisconsin, was even present at the Stop the Steal rally before the riot.) But what is striking is how a failed vote nearly three years ago has become a central issue in the weeks-long speaker fight.

Oregon Gym Fined $90,000 For Staying Open During Covid Shutdown, As County Commissioners Take Trips To Hawaii

OSHA has fined a Salem, Oregon, gym $90,000 for daring to keep their business open during Democrat Governor Kate Brown's arbitrary covid shutdown orders. Courthouse Club Fitness, which has five locations in the Salem area, opted to defy the orders and remain open, citing the need to do so in order to remain in business. The club's owner, John Miller, posted this since-deleted letter to their facebook page, explaining what is going on:

His reward for trying to hold onto his livelihood, provide for his employees, and serve his customers is OHSA inspectors levying a multitude of fines against his gyms. KGW reports:

The Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has fined Courthouse Club Fitness $90,000 for keeping four Salem area locations open during Oregon's statewide COVID-19 freeze, which began Nov. 18.



The total amount of the fine is the result of citations against each of the four Courthouse Club Fitness facilities. Each inspection resulted in a $22,500 fine; a $17,500 "willful penalty" for being open to the public and $5,000 for violating "red warning notices" the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services said it posted at each location last week, according to spokesperson Mark Peterson.

Daily penalties are possible in the future if Courthouse Club Fitness doesn't comply with Gov. Brown's executive order, which limited gatherings and closed certain businesses statewide, including gyms. The maximum fine for a "willful penalty" is $126,749, Peterson said.

KGW also provided a video report as the recent "two week freeze" was starting:

During this "freeze", 11,000 hysterical Karens have snitched on businesses that are apparently violating Her Majesty's orders. There also appears to be little data that suggests that the shutdown orders have stopped the spread of the virus, as Willamette Week reported.

Meanwhile, county commissioners in Oregon who have continually parroted Governor Brown's orders and pleas to leave home as little as possible have been caught taking luxurious vacations to Hawaii during the shutdown. The Oregonian reports:

As coronavirus cases surged in Oregon, county commissioners representing some of the most hard-hit areas in the state decided to travel - two to Hawaii and one to Mexico.

While two of the trips began before Gov. Kate Brown's "freeze" travel advisory went into effect, the optics of taking these vacations while Brown was asking Oregonians to take all available precautions to stem the tide of the disease, is causing some county workers and members of the public to wonder about a double standard.

KGW reported Monday that Multnomah County Commissioner Sharon Meieran called in to public meetings from her vacation in Hawaii earlier this month.

On the same day, another area commissioner was also on vacation in Hawaii, KGW reported.

Washington County Commissioner Dick Schouten joined a Zoom meeting that day, the TV station reported, while wearing a Hawaiian shirt and talking about how great the weather was.

He said he was three days into his vacation at that point. Schouten told KGW Tuesday that he was back from Hawaii and was quarantining for two weeks.

During the same meeting, Washington County Commissioner Jerry Wiley announced that he was leaving for Mexico on Nov. 16. KGW reported that a county spokesperson said he would be back Dec. 1.

Wiley's trip came after the governor joined California and Washington governors on Nov. 13 in urging people not to travel unless it is essential.

All three officials are facing backlash, but possibly none as much as Meieran, a practicing ER doctor, who told Willamette Week on Nov. 12, from her Hawaiian vacation, that Brown should impose another, tougher, statewide lockdown.

"At this point, I think the only thing that's going to work is really not a pause but a real shutdown," Meieran told Willamette Week.

Meieran didn't appear to see any problem with her vacation, even as many Oregonians are forgoing planned trips to see family over the Thanksgiving weekend.

"I really am sorry and regret what this has become, and I should have thought it through more," Meieran told The Portland Tribune on Tuesday. "Not because of any COVID risk, but because of the whole distraction."

As we all know, the edicts and orders only apply to us peasants. The political class is exempt and can do whatever they want. Because reasons.

he never admitted to that I dont think did he. so long ago, but I thought that was speculation. that case was super duper sensationalized. So too was the Mark Peterson case with his wife and baby, as well as Chandra Levy. all looking back at that now, it seems we can view some of this with a different lens than we were looking through back then, knowing what we know today about the cabal.
