They haven’t changed in actuality
Same mindset; no real difference. pastorwardclinton.com
Fascists then and now
This political cartoon really sums it up.
For years, Democrats and their left-wing allies have acted as if basic economics can be bullied into submission with a slogan, a protest sign, and a government mandate.
They demanded higher wages for entry-level fast food jobs, not because every franchise owner suddenly had extra money lying around, but because it sounded good politically.
And that is always the problem.
It sounds compassionate. It sounds fair. It sounds like standing up for the little guy.
Then reality shows up.
A few years ago, the big rallying cry was the $15 minimum wage. Democrats treated it like some magical solution that would lift everyone up with no downside, no trade-offs, and no consequences.
Then the kiosks arrived.
Now, as the push gets even more aggressive, franchise owners and fast food chains are doing exactly what any rational business would do when labor costs are pushed beyond what the business model can absorb.
They are replacing people with machines.
Not because they are evil. Not because they hate workers. Because they have to survive.
A self-service kiosk does not call in sick. A robot arm does not demand overtime. An ordering screen does not trigger payroll taxes, benefits, scheduling headaches, or lawsuits.
That is the part the left never wants to talk about.
When politicians force costs higher, businesses adapt. Sometimes they raise prices. Sometimes they cut hours. Sometimes they close locations. And sometimes, they automate the very jobs Democrats claimed they were trying to protect.
The sad irony is that the people cheering the loudest for these policies are often the same people hurt first when the entry-level ladder gets pulled away.
Maybe leftists should think things through before taking action that makes their own lives worse.
Good intentions do not repeal economics. They just make the consequences more expensive.
After all, folks:
“Unfortunately, the real minimum wage is always zero, regardless of the laws, and that is the wage that many workers receive in the wake of the creation or escalation of a government-mandated minimum wage, because they lose their jobs or fail to find jobs when they enter the labor force. Making it illegal to pay less than a given amount does not make a worker’s productivity worth that amount—and, if it is not, that worker is unlikely to be employed.”
― Thomas Sowell, Basic Economics: A Citizen’s Guide to the Economy
Democrats doing what democrats do! They love calling other people Nazis, fascist, communist or whatever, when in reality they were describing themselves the whole time! It’s a Democrat thing.
Nothing to see here, folks.
Peggy Praeger Tierney:
When Donald Trump was a private citizen, a government contractor stole his private tax data and leaked it to the media. Because the government failed to protect his private records, Trump and his family sued the IRS for $10 billion.
On May 18, 2026, the Justice Department settled the case. Trump agreed to walk away with zero dollars for himself. In exchange, the government put $1.776 billion into an “Anti-Weaponization Fund” to help ordinary citizens who say they were also unfairly targeted by federal agencies. The government also agreed to completely drop its ongoing tax audits against Trump’s businesses.
Trump declined $10 billion he was statutorily entitled to under 26 U.S.C. § 7431 and converted it into a compensation pool for other citizens, so calling this a corrupt enrichment scheme is factually backwards.
If anyone else got that award they would have taken it and ran. Joe Biden and every other Democrat out there.
The fund’s text explicitly says “there are no partisan requirements to file a claim,” meaning Democrats, independents, and Republicans are equally eligible.
The audit waiver is bound to pre-May-18-2026 conduct, not “perpetuity immunity forever” as the ridiculous media and out of job former attorney Liz Oyer claims.
Biden pardoned Hunter for crimes he was actually convicted of and Jim Biden while Jim was under two active federal investigations, with an 11-year window and zero public-facing remedy and the same commentators called that defensible. Literally.
So the Biden family could issue pardon for crimes committed and active investigations but Trump, who was actually agreed and is statutory entitled to this money set up a fund to help Americans who were victims of political persecution, and the demented media is calling it some kind of corrupt act?
Of course that same demented media wants judicial oversight. Would that be the judicial oversight that consistently rules incorrectly in any case involving Trump and gets overruled sometimes 9-0 at the Supreme Court?
Not one prior U.S. president has faced this volume of criminal prosecution, civil litigation, and unauthorized disclosure of confidential financial records simultaneously, so pretending this is a normal political cycle is dishonest bs.
The Obama administration used the exact same Judgment Fund mechanism in Keepseagle $760M, no congressional appropriation and the press called that justice. But it was actually much worse because in the Obama case this settlement was made against the advice of career DOJ officials who thought they could win at court.
Trump personally receives zero dollars, zero damages, and zero direct financial benefit from the settlement the only thing he gets is the audit waiver as protect protection so he won’t be targeted by the same Weaponized government should they ever get power again.
Congress will never legislatively compensate Jan 6 defendants, FACE Act defendants, or dismissed-case targets, so the choice was this fund or no remedy at all for documented victims of politically motivated federal action.
The media is very dishonest in this country and there’s a lot of experts who are even more dishonest. I am not an expert at anything except research and common sense. It is just basic common sense that when you have a president issue blanket, pardons for crimes that nobody even knows about that may or may not have been committed on his way out, and the media doesn’t bat an eye, but then you have a president who is actually wronged and who uses his settlement money to help those who are also politically persecuted smeared as corrupt the problem is the media.
-Insurrection Barbie
BREAKING: Notice has just been given to Democrats in the Tennessee House that all members of the Democrat Caucus are being removed from all standing committees and subcommittees as a result of their behavior in the statehouse during the redistricting debates last week, which included setting fires inside the Capitol and attacking law enforcement.
In the state of Tennessee, political terrorism will not be tolerated. National Republicans take note that this is how you exercise power.
“No one is above the law” …hmmm maybe they should be held with out bail while they fight their “insurrection” charges.

My word you people are pathetic and you people are demons!
Look around the world Lie-a-Watha people are celebrating!
Everyone is celebrating except the Marxist Democratic Party who is trying to bring this type of sick oppression into America!
You hailed Mamdani the Islamic Communist for our largest city! Cry harder and hear freedom ring!
Uh, I think that. Uh, uh, I think that that we as uh a nation can uh see and uh hear the difference. As a uh long term policy we uh can uh tell the uh difference.
Remember, that was pretty much her response regarding policy matters regarding Taiwan. (The “uh” thing).
