Oh no, we're going to forget that only black lives matter. The tragedy that people might think that all lives matter.

I found this very interesting. Italicized words are my emphasis. A great way to get our farmland back.

Missouri wins $24B judgment against China in COVID lawsuit

QUOTE: Federal judge Stephen Limbaugh Jr, on Friday ruled in favor of Missouri in the state’s $24 billion lawsuit against China’s Communist Party that accused it of hoarding protective supplies during the coronavirus pandemic.

"This is a landmark victory for Missouri and the United States in the fight to hold China accountable for unleashing COVID-19 on the world," Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey said in a statement. "China refused to show up to court, but that doesn’t mean they get away with causing untold suffering and economic devastation. We intend to collect every penny by seizing Chinese-owned assets, including Missouri farmland.”

Bailey's office said the judgment was six times larger than the previous largest judgment in the state's history.

Judge Stephen Limbaugh said in his ruling that the "Court finds that Missouri has provided evidence satisfactory to the Court to establish each Defendant’s liability to Missouri under Count IV of Plaintiff’s Complaint. The Court therefore enters a judgment against Defendants, jointly and severally, in the amount of $24,488,825,457.00, plus post judgment interest.”

Bailey also wrote on X Friday, "Hey China, You owe Missouri $24 BILLION. I just won a judgment in court. Pay up — or we start seizing assets and farmland.”

The ruling comes five years after former Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt sued China for "obstructing the production, purchase, and export of critical medical equipment, including PPE, during the pandemic," Bailey’s office wrote.

Maybe Evan Kilgore panders to the typical "instant gratification" American. While I might wish for firing squads in week 6 this simply not a reasonable expectation unless Chairman Mao or Comrade Stalin is in control. Has Thomas Massie put together a proposal for the budget given all the time he has had? What precisely is the spending that Trump has proposed that should not be there?

The current "spending plan" involves Zero change from 2024. Including funding the very same NGOs that Musk just exposed and USAID.

And its not just the lack of patience, its the turning of attention, the deliberate change of focus that is quite visible.
If the plan is simply to take our minds off of the things we all voted for, and indeed up to and including the confirmation process, because they need more time, OK I get that. Indictments take time. But we're seeing this rather sudden change of stated priorities that makes me uncomfortable.

I don't think MAGA has institutional control and that includes the House/Senate with all it's RINOs. So many people think it's easy to drain the swamp. As I said before, the swamp will fight back and MAGA has the Kraken by the tail not the throat. That's a big critter. Has Thomas Massie proposed a budget? I don't know as I don't follow him.

More from our Republicans, was more time needed to destroy evidence?

"This probably won’t surprise anyone, but the spineless GOP is once again slow-walking an investigation they pretended to care about."

"Rep Loudermilk told us that the J6 committee got rid of all the video depositions before Republicans were about to be sworn in."

Hey GOP, your foot-dragging on investigating the J6 Committee won't be tolerated... - Revolver News

GOP saboteurs are at it again.

Not one senator or Rep has proposed a detailed budget, nor has the Trump Admin.

Thats why they're voting for a continuation of the bloated full of now known fraud budget from last year.
The very definition of a CR is, "lets not change anything because its hard and we like things the way they are"

Congress has one job outlined in the Constitution, To propose and design a budget. They havent done so in many years because it takes effort and it exposes the grift.

While I can give the Trump Admin a pass for it being early for indictments (and it being passed the day he said they'd release JFK etc files), I can't give it and the other 533 Congress critters a pass (one other is siding with Massie), and I can't condone Trump's child like behavior of throwing what is otherwise a great and dedicated and well liked Representative overboard because he is sticking to the same principles on CR's that he has for a long time.

Its not like Massie dreamed this up for this vote. We were told we were cutting fraud and waste, and we're not.
