Being under oath doesn’t matter to these people stop acting like it’s something set in concrete. These people will lie to Jesus Christ in his face.

And then after they do there are no serious consequences for doing so.

I think that once the Trump family is deposed they’ll be looking for inconsistencies in the testimonies and then they can jail them for at the very least perjury.

Can they really jail them? As much as I'd like to see that accountability, Trump controls the Dept of Justice.

Economic Warfare (3)

From No mercy/No malice

By Professor Scott Galloway

“We frame economic power as a contest between capital and labor, but the real star of the American economy is consumer spending, which accounts for 68% of GDP. The Great Recession saw a 3.4% drop in consumer spending — at the time, the most severe year-over-year decline since World War II. The U.S. economy registered a 9.8% drop in consumer spending during the second quarter of 2020, when Covid shut down the world as we knew it. In both instances the U.S. government responded aggressively, spending hundreds of billions, primarily on bailouts, to pull us out of the Great Recession, and trillions, primarily in direct aid, to get us through the pandemic.

The lesson? When consumers stop spending, American leaders start listening. As Geo Hussar explained to his YouTube followers at the end of September, “this is not seizing the means of production, but seizing the means of consumption,” adding that if every American dropped their consumption, on average, by 2%, “that would be the most loud and potent form of protest.”

Please: Resist. Stop cooperating. Stop spending. Stop the fascist takeover.

Thank you for restacking, and sharing, to help Spread the Word!

I agree that consumer spending is our "persuader." If an organization wants to use the tool, it should announce a time period--maybe week or two. It should be at a time other than when non-discretionary spending is likely--as during Back to School preparations. Perhaps the last week in September or the first weekend in October. Effort should be made to get independent news on board to have the widest possible publicity. The messaging should be stark. "Let the Big Business know that Americans will not tolerate this unfair economy! Consumer spending is 68% of the GDP, so we can send a message! Spend only what is absolutely necessary. When you must spend, do it with local businesses or those that have stood up for ordinary Americans like Costco. Try to avoid sycophants like Target and Amazon. If we are united in this, we will be heard."

The best prosecutors are the ones who are those who already know the answers to the questions they ask the subpoenaed person. Often, unknown to those being questioned, they may have hard evidence Granted, we expect liars to always lie, and the "deflectors" to always hide. Sometimes, " lwe the people" will catch them in lies under oath. The point of Oversight Committee investigations is to get the facts on the public record as well as expose the perps and enablers for their role. It is for that reason, why I think we especially need sitting Senate and Congressional members in 2027-2034 to go torch earth (no softball questions) with their prosecutorial skills to back these rats to our republic into a corner.

But he will no longer control Congress & probably won’t control the Senate after January when the Dems takeover after the midterms.

Either way, it’s going to be interesting and I’m getting my popcorn ready for the hearings!

Nothing these people say can be trusted.

The Trump regime is a bigger danger to our country than Iran.

Whatever happened to the exported Brazilian friend that was supposedly gonna spill the beans on Melania? Is she still alive?

WJB Motown's avatar

Mel, had something to do with ICE deporting 'the friend' to Brazil.......She has all but said the Mel was a hooker........Mel was doing nude lesbo photo shoots......they show them on Moscow TV......LOL LOL!!!

Pamela's avatar

I'm not understanding why the Dems feel it necessary, or advantageous, to publish their intent before the mid-terms. Is it not better to wait rather than divulging their game plan prior to kick-off?

Dee Cee's avatar

Because too many people, many of whom frequent these forums, are saying the Dems are just as bad as the Repubs because "they aren't doing anything."

They can't do much, if anything, as long as they are in the minority and Repubs also have the Presidency, SCOTUS, and many of the appellate Judges.

So they are somewhat forced to disclose what they will do if they can get voters to the polls so they can be the majority.

It's a no win situation for them right now.

Diana Martin's avatar

Thats how I feel every thing they plan to do is out there. Even President Trump what he plans to do in Iran is announced in the news before he claims he's going to do

Most of what he says has been to manipulate the market - it's all about the oil, and that's all it ever has been for him.

Melania is ugly inside and outside

Dawn's avatar

Melania just wants to be an occasional show 🐎. Between the outrage news of her husband's "binky" as his "office wife" and the upcoming Congressional oversight summoning Melania under oath, this month is a very bad month for Melania. Her dark past is coming to roost in 2027.

Penny Thibeaux's avatar

May her dark, disgusting past surface, making headlines all over the world, a prostitute, a whore, Jeffery EPSTEIN loved her, so much will come out .can't wait !!!

Hopefully they that bitch in the detention center in TX.

Wouldn't that be an awesome day !

Wow, no First Lady has done things like Melania like posing naked like a sex worker, or a ho…

WJB Motown's avatar

It is all but confirmed that Mel was a hooker and doing sex work........having ICE ship out her friend to Brazil was not the smartest move.......Mel has already fucked over another 'friend' Stephanie Walcoff and ruined her life.

Get Melania's Ass!!

can't wait until Melania finally gets cross-examined. she thinks she's exempt because she's just FLOTUS. I suspect she will plead the fifth and no one will want to charge her with contempt of congress. do you think she's hiding back in Slovenia? maybe visiting with her first husband who nobody can figure out if she divorced or not? Does somebody really think she deserves a peace prize? What the fuck has she done other than hide away from her husband and her “friend” Natalie harp. Honestly I think she's hiding with her lawyers trying to figure out how to invalidate her prenup to the donald. Other than doing another Melania movie for Jeff bezos what does she have to claim for fame? She is a waste of human flesh and is full of Botox and who knows what other fillers. If she's not with her lawyers trying to break the prenup, she must be writing her next movie. Or getting more plastic surgery.
