Tim, I lived through the front lines of the 2020 riots in one of the violent epicenters. BLM/antifa were all the same people. I saw it day and night with my own eyes. They followed us around and back to our firehouses.They wrote down our license plate numbers in the parking lot. My life was threatened numerous times. BLM/antifa/free Palestine are all the same.

Mike Honcho 5,095 Posted July 25, 2024 Quote The US economy is pulling off something historic The US economy is on the verge of an extremely rare achievement. Economic growth in the first half of the year was solid, with the economy expanding a robust 2.8% annualized rate in the second quarter, according to fresh Commerce Department figures released Thursday, which are adjusted for inflation and seasonal swings. Gross domestic product, the broadest measure of economic output, was much stronger in the second quarter than economists had predicted. The GDP report showed that businesses are continuing to invest and that consumers are still fueling growth with their spending, despite high prices. As the economy continued to expand from April through June, inflation resumed a downward trend and seems to be on track to slowing further toward the Federal Reserve’s 2% target. America’s economy is about to stick what’s called a “soft landing,” which is when inflation returns to the Fed’s target without a recession — a feat that’s only happened once, during the 1990s, according to some economists. The latest GDP report showed that a key gauge of consumer demand picked up in the second quarter to an annual rate of 2.9%, matching the rate in the fourth quarter of 2023 for the strongest pace in two years. A measure of business investment also strengthened in the April-through-June period. The current health of the American economy suggests that the Fed has successfully handled inflation so far, with the finish line coming into clear view.

The actual people meeting with our council on the steps of City Hall at 12pm in the name of BLM were on the streets at night in violent groups.

No, they aren’t a 501c non profit, but violent groups of people exist that organize under the antifa flag.

It's not neccessarily about Kamala. It's about Trump. It's always been about Trump. That's why Joe Biden was still going to make this a tight race. Because it was about Donald Trump. He's insanely popular. He's insanely unpopular. Now that Kamala's in it; she actually gives a sliver of "Maybe this isn't JUST about Trump" jumpstart to the Democratic Party and the Anti-Trump Contingency of the Voting Public. She'll appeal a little bit more to women just because she's a woman. She'll appeal to people of color simply because she's a person of color. She'll appeal to younger voters because in an election cycle in which the ages of the candidates has been at the forefront...she's the much younger candidate. ETA: And that jibes with basically I've been saying for the past two years. If the Republicans nominated anyone other than Donald Trump....they would have won the elction running away. Hell, I'd probably even say right now that if Trump dropped out and Vance replaced him(with Trumps good graces of course)....he'd win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
