Tell me again why we’re better off now?

Tell me again why we’re better off now?

Fanatics on the left keep telling us how good things are today vs four years ago. Oh really? Let’s take a look.

Overall, food prices have risen about 22.8% in the last four years, based on a FOX Business analysis. That figure is roughly in line with the rise in meat prices in that time span, which are up nearly 22.6% since 2020.

Egg prices have skyrocketed more than 60.7% since August 2020 — due in part to an outbreak of avian influenza that impacted production in 2022, as well as rising costs for feed, energy and labor.

Other food categories have seen more modest price growth in the last four years, as dairy products are up 16% while fruits and vegetables are up about 13.8%.

Shelter prices have increased nearly 23.4% since August 2020, with rents for primary residences up by a similar amoun

Overall energy costs have increased about 42.4% over the past four years, with fuel oil spiking 70.3%.

New vehicles are up 19.5%, while prices for used cars and trucks have risen over 17.9% since August 2020. Auto insurance prices have surged by nearly 52.4% since that time.

Health care costs have increased at a slower rate than other categories, as prices for medical care services are up about 7.4% since August 2020, although prices for hospital services are up more than 17.8%.

Prices for education and communication services — a category that includes tuition and fees for various levels of schooling as well as internet, telephone and postage services — are up about 7.9% compared with four years ago.

Airline fares have risen nearly 21.7% since August 2020.

So, what did we learn from the debate?

So, what did we learn from the debate?

The most obvious was that Trump was debating three people, not just Harris. Two moderators who would fact check Trump (falsely) but did not fact check Harris. A moderator who lied that no state allows abortion after birth, but yet Axios reports that six states plus DC have no restrictions at all. Later it was revealed it’s actually nine.

Now last night CNN revealed that their poll conducted following the recent presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris revealed that Trump’s lead over Harris on the critical issue of the economy has grown. The percentage of debate watchers who trust Trump more on handling the economy rose from 16% to 20%, further solidifying his reputation in this key area.

The CNN poll results suggest that Trump’s economic message continues to resonate with a significant portion of the electorate, particularly as economic concerns such as inflation and job security remain at the forefront of voters’ minds.

Fact checking ABC and Harris.

Fact checking ABC and Harris.

Last night we had the debate. For some reason the ABC moderators did a fact check on Trump seven times. But for some reason didn’t fact check Harris. So let’s look at the Harris lies.

Many of their fact-checks were incorrect or incomplete. A list of the seven most obvious examples follows (quotes taken from the ABC News transcript):

  • LINSEY DAVIS: There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born. Madam vice president, I want to get your response to President Trump.
  • DAVID MUIR: I just want to clarify here, you bring up Springfield, Ohio. And ABC News did reach out to the city manager there. He told us there have been no credible reports of specific claims of pets being harmed, injured or abused by individuals within the immigrant community
  • DAVID MUIR: President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is coming down in this country…
  • DAVID MUIR: The question was about you as president, not about Former Speaker Pelosi. But I do want Vice President Harris to respond here.
  • DAVID MUIR: I did watch all of these pieces of video. I didn’t detect the sarcasm, lost by a whisker, we didn’t quite make it, and we should just point out as clarification, and you know this, you and your allies, 60 cases in front of many judges…
  • DAVID MUIR: Mr. President, thank you. Vice President Harris, you heard the president there tonight. He said he didn’t say that he lost by a whisker. So he still believes he did not lose the election. That was won by President Biden and yourself.
  • DAVID MUIR: President Trump, thank you. You did bring up something, you said she went to negotiate with Vladimir Putin. Vice President Harris, have you ever met Vladimir Putin, can you clarify tonight?

Trump to Implement his Project 2025.

False. Trump had nothing to do with 2025. A Heritage Foundation wish list.

Harris claim of never favoring a Fracking ban.

False. During a CNN town hall on climate change in 2019 when she was still a Senator, Harris said, “There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking.”

Harris claimed that Trump would sign a National Abortion Ban.

False. Trump has said he has “no regrets” in selecting the Supreme Court justices who overturned the constitutional right to an abortion. But he also repeatedly has promised that if elected, he will not sign a federal abortion ban into law and will leave the issue up to the states.

Trump left us the worst unemployment since the Great Depression.

False. Unemployment rapidly declined to 6.4% in January 2021 by the time Trump left office, as the economy started to rebalance. And that 6.4% unemployment rate is still better than the 10% peak during the Great Recession in October 2009.

If you eliminate pandemic statistics, the lowest unemployment rate under Trump was just slightly higher than the lowest point under Biden. Both were good: 3.5% under Trump and 3.4% under Biden at their lowest respectively, according to data provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis and Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Comments will have more fact checks.

Never Forget What They Did. A Look Back at COVID Tyranny.

Never Forget What They Did. A Look Back at COVID Tyranny.

Here’s a look back at what they did to the noncompliant in the name of “health.”

Precisely three years ago, Joe Biden officially declared you (the unvaccinated) an enemy of the state. “We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin, and your refusal has cost all of us,” he said after announcing sweeping “vaccine” mandates.

This was the moment that sent a deep chill down my spine and raised all alarm bells that we were on a very dangerous path. The President of the United States was directly threatening his own citizens and blaming a subset of people for the ongoing COVID crisis.

I realized I was witnessing Germany 2.0 unfolding before my very eyes and knew it had to be stopped before things got worse. I decided then that I could no longer be a spectator and started taking steps toward creating the account you see today, @VigilantFox.

What ensued after Biden’s speech was one of the most hate-filled propaganda campaigns in human history. Here’s a look back at what they did to the noncompliant in the name of “health.”

New Zealand erected a two-tiered society. (October 2021)

 

Reporter: “So you’ve basically said this is gonna be like … two different classes of people if you’re vaccinated or unvaccinated. You have all these rights if you are vaccinated.”

Jacinda Ardern: *With a grin* “That is what it is. So, yep. Yep.”

Australia demonized ANYONE against the mandates. (November 2021)

Even if you were vaccinated — took two shots yourself, if you dared speak out against the mandates, you were just as much “anti-vax” as the unvaccinated.

Not my words. Former NT Chief Minister Michael Gunner’s. (November 2021)

“If you are anti-mandate, you are absolutely anti-vax. I don’t care what your personal vaccination status is. If you support, champion, give a green light, give comfort to, support anybody who argues against the vaccine, you are an anti-vaxxer. Absolutely! Your personal vaccination status is utterly irrelevant.”

In other words, “If you dare to question the authority of the state, we will also place you into the ‘other’ category.”

And then came discriminatory lockdowns of the unvaccinated — most notably in Austria. (November and December of 2021)

The unvaccinated were barred from leaving their homes for all “non-essential” purposes. You couldn’t even take your family out for a humble meal at McDonald’s without the threat of police barging in to check your papers.

Keep in mind that it was well known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” did not stop transmission at this time. However, governments worldwide continued to punish the unvaccinated, stripping away their jobs, their ability to travel, and their ability to feed their families…

Neighbors turned on neighbors.

The propaganda became more ridiculous.

The unvaccinated were ridiculed after death.

 

An entire subreddit was dedicated to mocking such people to their graves after supposedly dying of COVID-19. We all know what really happened in those hospitals. This was a low point in groupthink behavior that sadly continues to persist today.

Life-saving transplants were denied to the unvaccinated.

Police violently pushed elderly women to the ground — and then pepper sprayed them.

Quarantine camps even popped up in Australia.

Fines of up to 5,000 Australian dollars were issued against breaking the rules on their grounds, such as leaving your designated porch area without a mask on.

They went as far as to divide us with fences…

 

And Austria even intended to criminalize being unvaccinated… (December 2021)

SOS from Austria at the time:

“An Austrian newspaper published the rules the government wants to introduce on first of [February] already here in Austria. Those rules say that if you’re not vaccinated, you can get fined up to 2000 euros each time you’re caught unvaccinated. This can mean, and this is explicitly being said so that you can also get fined more than once a day, or three times, four times, five times if you’re unvaccinated. If you refuse to pay this, the government wants to put us into a separate prison which has to be created for unvaccinated people up to one year.”

On a global scale, the unvaccinated were treated like animals, “others.” So were the people who didn’t want to wear a mask…

An Australian police officer manhandled and appeared to choke a young woman for mask noncompliance outdoors.

“He’s f*cking choking me! You’re choking me! What the F*ck!”

Even after all the psychological, social, and economic abuse, they were still proven unsuccessful in breaking your spirit.

I truly believe, had people not resisted, that Germany 2.0 could have been an actual thing. It was resistance, not “The Science™” that toppled vaccine mandates — and the discriminatory practices that came along with them.

The Canadian truckers led the way with the Freedom Convoy, the single most monumental demonstration of peaceful resistance I have seen in my lifetime.

After weeks of bouncy houses, hockey games, and dance parties in the streets of Ottawa, Trudeau had no choice but to expose himself as a full-on tyrant — bank accounts frozen!

As we look back at where vax mandates are now vs. where they were then, there is no about the HUGE impact the trucker convoy had on COVID policy, not only in Canada but around the world.

But each and every person who resisted COVID tyranny also deserves thanks.

If you had the courage to resist vaccination or speak out against the mandates, I want to offer you my deepest gratitude. Thanks to your bravery and the millions alike, we’ve been spared from the gulags and have the powers that be on the ropes.

So, let’s mark September 9, 2021, on the calendar as a day to be remembered — as a day that we all decided not to put up with this bullsh*t any longer.

Thank you for resisting. Happy ‘Do Not Comply’ Day.

Thanks for reading! The events that transpired during COVID are cumulatively the worst thing I’ve ever witnessed in my entire life. We must look back, understand how it happened, and take steps to ensure it never happens again.

Short and sweet. If RFK jr has to stay on the ballot, why not Joe Biden?

Short and sweet. If RFK jr has to stay on the ballot, why not Joe Biden?

The Michigan Supreme Court on Monday ruled Robert F. Kennedy Jr. must stay on the state’s ballot even though he suspended his campaign. So, how’s this different from what Joe Biden did?

Maybe states that have Republican Secretaries of state should put Biden’s name back on the ballot. Wouldn’t that be fair? If Kennedy must stay on the ballot, then the same should be for Biden’s name to remain on the ballot.

What’s interesting is that Michigan tried to keep him off the ballot when he decided not to run, but now Michigan refuses to remove him from the ballot.

Senator admits that Harris is lying about changing her policies.

Bernie Sanders on Sunday admitted that Harris hasn’t changed. Claimed that she was lying to get elected. Remember when she ran on her Progressive views in 2020, she battled Congressman Tim Ryan for last place for the Democrat nominee.

Host Kristen Welker said, “You have described Vice President Kamala Harris as a progressive. She has previously supported Medicare for all, now she does not. She has previously supported a ban on fracking, now she does not. These, senator, are ideas that you have campaigned on.

Do you think she is abandoning her progressive ideals?” Sanders said, “No, I don’t think she’s abandoning her ideals. I think she’s trying to be pragmatic and doing what she thinks is right in order to win the election. Welker asked, “Do you consider Vice President Kamala Harris to be progressive, senator?”

Sanders said, “I do.”

Trump Outlines ‘9 Steps’ He’ll Use to ‘Drain the Swamp.’

Trump Outlines ‘9 Steps’ He’ll Use to ‘Drain the Swamp.’

Former President Donald Trump, speaking at a rally at the Central Wisconsin Airport in Mosinee, Wisconsin, railed against Vice President Kamala Harris while outlining his “nine steps” to “drain the swamp” in Washington, D.C.

First, Trump said he will end what he calls the weaponization of government and the abuse of law enforcement against political opponents.

Second, Trump said that he will bring back free speech in America.

“Fake news is a threat to this country,” Trump said. “Some are good, but most of them are absolutely terrible human beings. They are the police force for bad. They are very dishonest. When you’re a politician and happen to be a Republican, they write just the opposite of what the facts are.”

The third step will to “expel the warmongers” and to “carry out a much-needed cleanup of the military-industrial complex,” said Trump.

The fourth step, he said, will be to curtail the power of federal bureaucrats.

Trump promised as his fifth step, his administration will “drain the government education swamp and stop the abuse of your taxpayer dollars to indoctrinate America’s youth.” This includes eliminating the federal Department of Education and sending control of schools back to the states.

For the sixth step, Trump said his administration will not tolerate equity policies “that punish Americans based on race or gender.”

As the seventh step, Trump said his administration will work with former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to take on corruption at the Food and Drug Administration, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, “and other institutions that are dominated by corporate power and China.”

The eighth step will be to ask Congress to pass sweeping reforms preventing foreign influence-peddling “like we have seen with the Biden crime family.”

And as the ninth and final step, Trump said he will support modifying the 25th Amendment “to make clear that if a vice president lies or engages in a conspiracy to cover up the incapacity of the president of the United States, it is grounds for impeachment and removal from office,” said Trump.

The complete nine steps can be found here at Newsmax.

Berkley trying to pull a fast one. Gas Hook ups. What’s next? Gas stoves?

Last year the 9th told California that you can’t ban gas stoves or building hook ups. Several cities passed these asinine laws. Berkley being one.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals last year struck down the city of Berkeley’s ordinance that sought to ban natural gas hookups in new buildings, finding it conflicted with federal law. But Berkeley’s climate obsessives are trying to do an end-run with a November voter initiative that would tax owners of larger buildings for consuming gas.

When is a lie a lie? When Harris, her stooges, and MSM repeat the lie.

The AP’s initial headline and social media post, which summarized his comments as, “JD Vance says school shootings are a ‘fact of life,’” was criticized for being misleading. AP later revised the headline to clarify Vance’s statement, stating he “laments” the shootings and called for better security.

AP fixed the headline and the article, but over 2.5 million folks saw the lie. Harris and her security blanket loon still ran with the lie as did MSNBC and an obscure website. The website did no damage because it only has about 25-30 viewers.

Nuff said.

What the Jobs report really shows us. It’s not good.

What the Jobs report really shows us. It’s not good.

For those who follow the economy, the latest job report is not a pretty picture. I’m sure you saw last week where we were told that from last March to this March, the jobs report was off by eight hundred thousand jobs. Yes, eight hundred thousand less jobs than what was reported.

Yesterday’s report for August continued that bad news. Not only did the government miss August’s numbers by about 20,000, but the numbers for June and July were off by about one hundred thousand.

Finally, over four hundred thousand full time jobs were replaced last month with over five hundred thousand part time jobs.
