Americans blame Democrats' for economic downturnBreitbart: A majority of likely voters believe Democrats are responsible for plunging the United States into a recession, a Rasmussen Reports poll released on Wednesday found. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said in late July that “Democrats inherited an economy that was primed for an historic comeback, and promptly ran it straight into the ground.” Out of 1,000 likely voters surveyed between July 28-31, 59 percent say they agree with McConnell’s statement and 35 percent disagree. The margin of sampling error is ± 3 percentage points with a 95 percent level of confidence... read more

Hunter Biden's attempt to buy stake in Russian oil companyDaily Wire: Fresh revelations from Hunter Biden‘s laptop raise new questions about his possible effort to buy a stake in a Russian oil company, and what President Joe Biden knew about his son’s dealings. They also underscore the profound dishonesty of the “Steele dossier” created by ex-British spy Christopher Steele and funded by the Democratic National Committee: With a Russian oil company preparing to sell shares, the dossier claimed a Donald Trump official had set up a secret deal to make favorable Russian policy in exchange for the shares. In reality, it was a Chinese firm p... read more

Read the corporate media 'upside down'
I remember quite well, at the time of the collapse of the former Soviet Union, hearing a story about *Pravda* which was one of the leading newspapers at the time. Pravda means truth in Russian. The story went like this: If you want to really know what is happening in the country then you have to read* Pravda *'upside down'. So in the west - where the Empire of Lies rules - we need to follow that example and learn to view our corporate controlled media upside down. The lies in the media are endless.

Democrats want to sic tens of thousands more IRS agents on ordinary, often-innocent taxpayers.

Would-be migrants have been processed after crossing the southwestern border more than 1.7 million times so far this year, already exceeding last year’s record-setting tally.
