MAN OVERBOARD, REVERSE THE ENGINES, DROP THE ANCHOR. Back in the day, a balanced budget was a given. However, in 1971, Richard Milhous Nixon, decided to free the dollar from Gold. This set of a chain reaction across the free world.
Prior to the fatefull day, trading partners were able to exchange thirty five U.S. dollars for one ounce of gold. However, the U.S. was running out of gold; in other words, there was a run on the bank. In August French President Georges Pompidou sent a battleship to New York City to remove France’s gold deposits. They were worried that we would confiscate their gold and turn it in to IOU’s – another term for Paper Gold.
In the intervening years, our budget deficits have spiraled out of control.
The chart above only runs through 2023, presently our deficit is $36 Trillion and counting. Republicans are just as guilty as the spendthrift Democrats. However, the Day of Reckoning is Upon Us.
You better not cry I’m telling you why because the Grinch is coming to town. Employees in the private sector are held accountable, those in the public sector aren’t. Thoughout government, especially the liberal bastions of WOKE, Democrat cities, states are padded with “no shows” who collect absorbitant pay checks. Pensions are to die for as last years overtime is included in the pension formula.
Federal employees can’t be fired. As alleged, they are in the ether. Many do not report to work. This holds true for their bosses too.
A report issued in 2017 shows that Average benefits were 52 percent higher for federal employees whose highest level of education was a bachelor’s degree than for similar private-sector employees.
Average benefits were 93 percent higher for federal employees with only a high school education than for their private-sector counterparts.
Among employees with a doctorate or professional degree, average benefits were about the same in the two sectors.
After accounting for workforce differences, such as education, overall federal employees are paid about 17 percent more in total compensation than similar employees in the private sector.
And of course there is the propoganda: Federal employees on average earned 27.54 percent less than private sector workers in similar jobs this year, according to an analysis released today by the Federal Salary Council. The disparity has grown significantly in just one year, from 24.09 percent in 2022.
However, and we vehemntly state that if Federal employees are so underpaid, why don’t we see them quitting and entering the private sector? Because they aren’t underpaid. If an objective analysis was completed one would find out that the Federal workforce on the whole does not work at the same level as a private sector employee; in the majority of cases they are held accountable for their work, do not have the same responsibilities and never have to worry about being fired or dismissed for unerperformance. President Kennedy cemented their lifetime jobs.
Executive Order 10988 gave Federal employees the right to join, form, or assist labor organizations. It established a three-tiered system of recognition: exclusive representation, formal recognition, and informal recognition.
The DOGE BOYS will have none of this. Expect the meatcutters , Vivek and Elon, to eviscerate the glutinous deep state. They will cut the fat to the bone. Count on it.
Most Federal employees work for the election of Democrats rather than what is good for the country. the likelyhood of a Federal Employee be fired is like being struck by lightning .
And you can add the teachers union, the NEA & AFT, to be in the same camp, they have endorsed Democrat candidates 100% of the time. Trump’s new department of education secretary, Linda McMahon will complete the job started by Betsy Devos.Be forwarned, ‘the times they are a changing.’
It could not be any better for Federal employees- no need to come to the office, but get paid anyway. FIRE them in day one. These peeps are on vacay, working remotely from Timbuktu . We can’t allow this to happen. It is not only illegal, but a perpetrated fraud on Americas taxpayers. American workers show up on their job, their managers charge is to ensure that they perform an honest days work for an honest days pay.
The Duo of Elon and Vivek have them as target Numero Uno. Don’t be surprised if the DON reverses Sleepy Joe’s directive. American workers are accountable, the same should be with Federal workers – we pay them, they are our employees. They work for us, Trump will not take any prisoners, come January 20, 2025, the hatchet will be sharpened, the carcass will be trimmed to the bone.
Yes, Red Blood will be spilled,
but those who work for the government must understand that there is no Free Lunch. If they have the skills necessary to transition to private industry, the have nothing to fear. Today’s job market will easily absorb them. But for those without any skills, tough luck; you will have to go on the Dole.
Unknown drones, perhaps from another planet or maybe our own. The mystery of where they came from deepens. Are they of our making?
Since no one wants to admit their source , not even Elon, we will take a stab at their Origin, Sorry Jeff, not of the Blue. But our earth laboratory has found signals emanating from 16000 Pennsylvania Ave, no it’s not St. Nick. However, we have identified the culprit.
Joe Biden and son are behind the scary nights. BOTH ARE TWO SPACE SHOTS. And that is our take. Who else could it be? “Lock Her Up” or that damn Pelosi Person? Can’t be Elon and the Don or could it?
We previously warned America that Obama was behind Biden’s nomination in 2020, and the takedown in 2024. Obama is a nasty creep with charisma, easily conning people. Effectively, Obama is a psychopath.
Working behind the scenes, he was the puppet master for Sleepy Joe. But there is more to him, his actions indicate the evil within. Don’t forget his apology tour, starting in Egypt, then infusing Iran. With $100 billion. And of course Iran armed itself, Hezbollah, Hamas. But never forget his selling Israel down the drain. Proceeding then to bring in the Houthi’s to cause terror in North Africa and shipping routes.
During all of this havoc, Obama rejoiced. But one thing stood in his way, Ex-President, Donald J. Trump. The American people saw through his ruse, voted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
George kept pressing the very fact that Trump raped another woman, though he was never convicted of rape. He, George Stephanopoulos and ABC apologize to Trump, are forced to pay $15 million to settle defamation suit
ABC News will pay $15 million as a charitable contribution to a Trump presidential foundation and museum
ABC News and star anchor George Stephanopoulos have agreed to pay President-elect Trump $16 million to settle a defamation lawsuit.
The settlement was publicly filed Saturday, just days before the two sides were set to sit for depositions in the case.
ABC News agreed to pay a $15 million donation to a “Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for [Trump], as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past,” along with $1 million for Trump’s attorney fees, according to the settlement.
ABC News and Stephanopoulos also would issue statements expressing their “regret” to the online article version of the anchor’s March interview that prompted Trump to file the federal lawsuit earlier this year, the settlement noted.
Stephanopoulos was slapped with a defamation suit by Trump after incorrectly stating multiple times on-air that Trump was found “liable for rape.”GC Images
The Old Hag tripped, fell down, broke her hip. As far as we know, she wasn’t drinking, but who knows.
There is no doubt that this Low Life will not be invited, let alone attend, Trump’s second inauguration. People like her are actually responsible for President Trumps succeeds.
The country saw the enemy, and it was her.
On Broadway they tell you to break a leg when the curtain goes up. Effectively, wishing you the best. However, America hoped she literally would break a leg. SHE DID NOT DISAPPOINT.
Today’s first class stamp cost $.73. A decade ago there cost was $.44, an 88.6% increase. In his first campaign, President Trump had his eyes on the USPS. Today, the USPS is subject to the same scrutiny. After all, why wouldn’t it be. They lose Ten Billion a year, certainly not a first class stamp.
Now that we are in the midst of a second Trump term, the focus has turned once again to USPS. Currently, the team of Elon and Vivek, are bringing new attention to the postal service. With these two Butchers on board we expect them “TO GO POSTAL” in cutting the fat to the bone. Can’t wait for this to happen.
There is something wrong those who criticize Ms. Clark. What has she done to deserve harsh words thrown her way? Oh, oh, we forgot that she is White and has privilege – even she admits it. But others have no right to flagrantly attack her on the court.
The latest diatribe against Ms. Clark comes from the co-owner of the Washington Mystics, who took issue with Clark being named the “Athlete of the Year.” Sheila Johnson said, “by chosing Clark, it could bring division among players.”
In actuality, people like her, by barking up the wrong tree, can prevoke animosity among players. This in turn will cause backlash on the court, possibly leading to Clark being a target of competitors and perhaps her own teammates.
We at the NBTP salute Clark for her athletic prowess while entertaining us in 2024. CONGRATULATIONS!
Donald Trump is expected to be named Time magazine’s “Person of the Year” — and to celebrate the unveiling of the cover, the president-elect will ring the opening bell of the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday morning, according to three people familiar with the plans granted anonymity because they were not authorized to divulge the plans.
Last year, pop superstar Taylor Swift was recognized. To mark the magazine cover reveal, Time CEO Jessica Sibley rang the opening bell.
Trump was also named Time Person of the Year in 2016 after he won the presidential election. He joins 13 other U.S. presidents who have received the recognition, including President Joe Biden.
A short list for Time Person of the Year was announced Monday on NBC’s “The Today Show” and included Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris, Kate Middleton, Elon Musk and Benjamin Netanyahu.
Time already announced NBA star Caitlin Clark as Athlete of the Year, Elton John as Icon of the Year and Lisa Su of Advanced Micro Devices as CEO of the Year.
A spokesperson for Time said the magazine “does not comment on its annual choice for Person of the Year prior to publication. This year’s choice will be announced tomorrow morning, Dec. 12, on Time.com.”
The incoming president has long been fixated with being on the covers of magazines, especially Time.
The “Person of the Year” goes to a newsmaker who has had a significant impact on the year’s events, and in the past has included people ranging from Winston Churchill and Queen Elizabeth II to Vladimir Putin and Joseph Stalin.
