peak 2025. took ten years, but he finally got a favorable TIMES cover:

 

 

On another topic, when someone tells you what they're going to do, believe them. I believe that Trump is trying to make good on his campaign promises, as best he can and as best the rest of the government allows. I guess he threw in seven or eight peace deals along the way for free, so good on him.

When socialists tell you what they're going to do, you should believe them too.

 

Had a friend get hit on his motorcycle by an illegal alien, who produced fake insurance documents to the cops at the scene.

My friend ended up with a broken hip and hospital bills, while the illegal skated.

 

One side said we'd have to pass the bill to see what's in it. The other side said it would explode our healthcare costs.

 

The data presented by Cruz doesn't show anything different than what was happening before. From 1999 to 2011, insurance costs more than doubled. They haven't yet doubled in the Obamacare era. The graph presented shows this clearly; a perfect linear increase in costs. And no, I am not a fan of Obamacare so I am not defending it.

What he should be pointing out is the absolute lack of care, in health care. Everyone knows the insurance companies, and hospitals, and drug makers, and all the health care "professionals" are raking it in, just as they were before. But I'm now 53 years old and starting to see just how bad the treatment you get when you need it. Something I didn't see before because, well, everyone I knew didn't need any medical treatment. In my limited experience with the health care industry in the past, and I mean distant past, you were treated with a sense of compassion and respect when you went to see a doctor. Now you would be lucky to get a doctor to see you and get charged 10 times as much by some wannabe that treats you like you owe them something. I get more respect walking into a car dealer than a hospital. And at least my car comes with a warranty. These butchers will **** you up and charge you again to fix it if they haven't killed you yet. Like my good friend Dave says, nowhere else do more people go to die than in a hospital, so no big deal for them, that person was already fucked up before they got there.

As shown in a couple of posts before, the majority of jobs in the USA are health care jobs. The problem is simple. It's greed and the destruction of the hippocratic oath. At this point, I hate doctors and lawyers about the same amount because of the the same thing. This might be the greatest country in the world but you'd better not need a doctor or a lawyer because you may not survive either.

"La Diabla" Arrested in Baby Trafficking and Organ Harvesting Operation

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has announced a shocking multinational sting, Operation Diabla, which led to the arrest of Martha Alicia Mendez Aguilar ("La Diabla"), a top figure in the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).

According to the ODNI and DOJ, Aguilar's network lured pregnant women with false promises of aid -- then performed illegal cesarean sections, selling newborns for up to $14,000 and harvesting organs from victims.

The operation, coordinated through Trump's National Intelligence Fusion Cell, integrated U.S. and Mexican law enforcement and reflects the administration's expanded use of terrorism designations against cartels.

Since January 2025, more than 21,000 cartel operatives have been added to U.S. terror databases, with 6,500 travel denials and eight lethal drone strikes on cartel-linked assets.

Gabbard called the bust "proof that America will hunt evil -- wherever it hides."

Obamacare expense comes from more than just an increase in coverage. Our "Silver Plan" became a "Copper Plan", even though our prices went up. Also, the Feds fed into the system directly (our back-end taxes) in order to subsidize the system.


Federal Government Direct Spending on Obamacare (ACA) Coverage Provisions:

The Affordable Care Act (ACA, or Obamacare) directs federal spending primarily through two main channels: (1) enhanced federal matching payments for Medicaid expansion (covering low-income adults up to 138% of the federal poverty level in participating states, starting in 2014), and (2) premium tax credits (PTCs) and cost-sharing reductions (CSRs) for subsidized health insurance purchased through ACA marketplaces. These represent the core "direct" government funding for expanded coverage under the ACA, totaling approximately $1.5 trillion over the past decade according to estimates from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and other sources.

• Key Notes:
  • Data is for fiscal years (October 1–September 30), in billions of nominal dollars.
  • Pre-2014 spending was minimal, limited to planning grants and early reforms (e.g., young adult coverage extension); major outlays began in FY 2014.
  • Figures are gross outlays (direct spending); they do not net out ACA-generated revenues (e.g., taxes) or savings (e.g., Medicare reforms), which CBO estimates partially offset costs.
  • Sources: Compiled from CBO baseline reports (e.g., updated estimates from 2014–2024), CMS actuarial data on Medicaid expansion, and Treasury/IRS data on PTCs/CSRs. Actuals are used through FY 2023; FY 2024 is based on CBO's final 2024 accuracy report and CMS enrollment data. Enhanced subsidies (from the 2021 American Rescue Plan) boosted marketplace spending starting FY 2022.
  • Total since 2010: ~$1.65 trillion (through FY 2024).

this is all CBO data.

 

It's the beauty of arbitrage when you're a nation state...

 

Yeah but you can keep your doctor.

 

you don't remember this?




we just need to increase taxes to fix the broken tax increase promised by obama.

 

 

Lol, I love how much the uninformed go into convulsions over this project. It's not nefarious. You can leave the tin foil hat on, but watch a brief interview before playing along with the kooks.

Here's the direct questioning in a secondary interview following the Texas flooding earlier this year:
Here's a more complete breakdown of the process, materials, company, and its history in an earlier interview this year. Also discussed is China's immense cloud seeding program and differences between it and American efforts.

Neither is a 20 second soundbite but you might find it interesting and may learn something useful.

 

peak 2025,

 

Hopefully AGW has peaked as well. The truth will out.

 

I watched this when it first came out. I think the cloud seeding that he's talking about is reasonable, as long as the particulates used don't hang around in the soil or water. I'm not sure if he talked about silver iodide and how long it lasts. Don't know. He did mention "geoengineering" at the 16:?? minute mark, which is more of what I'd like to find out more about. Is the government geoengineering? A whistleblower says we are. Wouldn't everyone want to know? I think it's important, but I won't be bringing this up every other post, like the Epstein list.

 

Here's the hustle:

Wow....59%. I know where to find the money to fix Social Security...


Good point:

 

California elections are on the "honor system"

 

Very interesting overview of why the shutdown is happening, and what's changing about Obamacare.
