BUSTED: AirTags Lead Police Straight to Home of Retired Columbus State Professor and
Democrat-Donor Wife After Conservative CandidaterCOs Campaign Signs Disappear (VIDEO)

A conservative-leaning independent candidate in Columbus, Georgia, got tired of watching his campaign signs vanish. He hid Apple AirTags inside
them.

The trackers did not ping a dumpster or a random yard. They led straight to the home of a well-known local reverend and her husband, a retired
Columbus State University educator.

Stephen Acorn is running as an Independent write-in against longtime Democrat incumbent Debbie Buckner for Georgia House District 137.

Nah!

Compromising US elections with cheat-o-matic voting machines is far more sophisticated than any Republican operation. Installing America-hatin'
judges and prosecutors so the Democrat agents of crime can never be
prosecuted is sophisticated. Using lawfare and fake crimes to keep the patriots under control is pure genius.

When I lived in Montreal i did the same, but I waited for the

They're starting to use coroplast for campaign signs here in Denmark,
but its the thinner, floppier version. Not the same thing.

That's why you Americans will never get all the good stuff we have

tuition-free education, effective public transport, and so on.

Burt and Bill have always had the same healthcare insurance and paid
the same monthly premium. Burt has never had any serious medical
problems. Bill has had countless doctor's appointments and many hospitalisations. At the end of their lives they look back.

If Burt is American he'll say:
I've been shafted. We've both paid the same insurance premiums and I
hardly used any healthcare services!

If Burt is European, Australian or Canadian, he'll say:
I've been much luckier than Bill. I've hardly had any medical
problems!

I don't how how many times I've seen some dumbfuck on the Internet
write, "I don't want to pay for someone else's health care."

If it's as awful and Canada's or Britain's medieval NHS - indeed!

And I write, "Do you have health insurance? Unless you're extremely
unlucky, you've already paid for the health care of someone in
your pool who uses more health care than you do."

Canada had to allow private health insurance as their nationalized
system is broken.


The Supreme Court Decision

In the 2005 case Chaoulli v. Quebec, the
Supreme Court of Quebec's restrictions on private health insurance for medically necessary care were challenged.

The Supreme Court ruled that long wait times in the public system
violated patients' rights to personal security and life under the Quebec charter.

And then, radio silence.

The Rest of CanadaUnder the federal Canada Health Act, provinces must
maintain universal, publicly administered healthcare to receive federal funding.

Most other provinces still prohibit private health insurance or
extra-billing for medically necessary services to prevent a two-tier
system based on wealth.

Legal challenges in other provinces (such as the Cambie Case in British Columbia) have repeatedly upheld bans on duplicative private
healthcare.

More rare, yet no less annoying: "I don't have kids. Why should
I pay for them to go to school?"

Poor statist Hammy - all these infidels against the TAXATIOUS STATE!

Piggy-backing.

Here's a little something I had AI make for me! It illustrates a
fundamental difference between two systems. In this case the US,
Canadian, and Danish systems. The prompt was:

"Make a graph where the x-axis represents the income bracket of the
recipients of selective treatments, and the y-axis represents the
percentage of the total number of procedures the recipient belongs
to."

The graph:
https://postimg.cc/nMNHDqRh

From AI overview:

"Key Analysis of the Distribution Trends

United States (Upward Slope):
Because the U.S. relies heavily on a multi-payer private system,
access to elective and selective care scales with financial capacity.
Higher income brackets possess comprehensive insurance coverage, lower deductibles, and the disposable income to cover out-of-pocket metrics.

Consequently, the Highest 20% of earners account for a

disproportionately large share of total procedures, while the lowest
income brackets frequently defer or skip non-emergency care entirely
due to cost barriers.<<--"

[My emphasis]

Canada (Bell Curve / Middle Peak):
Under Canada's single-payer framework, access is disconnected from
wealth. The distribution closely mirrors the general population
density and actual clinical disease burden (which naturally
concentrates heavily within lower and middle-income demographics).
However, there is a minor dip in the highest income tier because
wealthy individuals occasionally choose to circumvent domestic wait
times by paying out-of-pocket for elective surgeries in the U.S. or
private international clinics.

Denmark (Flat / Equitable Line):
Denmark achieves a highly equitable distribution that matches true
baseline clinical need rather than wealth. Because the system is
completely free at the point of care, lower-income brackets face no
financial friction. Furthermore, because the 30-day legal guarantee
leverages private domestic clinics at the government's expense if
public backlogs occur, higher-income citizens have no incentive to
leave the universal public tracking system."

"The Supreme Court RulingIn February 2026, the Supreme Court struck down
the Trump administration's sweeping import tariffs.The court ruled that
the administration exceeded its legal authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).This ruling forced the federal
government to reverse collections and issue massive repayments.

Where the Refund Money WentU.S. Customs and Border Protection set up an
online system to process refund claims for businesses.The government
has refunded over $100 billion to eligible importers of record.Major corporations received massive payouts, including Apple ($2.2 billion),
Amazon ($600 million), and Nike ($300 million)."

He promised a "DOGE dividend" that we never received.

What Happened to the DOGE Dividend?

"The Proposal: In early 2025, Trump
expressed support for an idea floated by Elon Musk and outside advisers
to return a portion of federal budget cuts made by the Department of
Government Efficiency (DOGE) to taxpayers as a $5,000 dividend.

The Funding Gap: The proposed payout relied on DOGE cutting more than $2 trillion in federal spending. However, official and disputed tallies
showed actual verified savings were only a tiny fraction of that goal.

The Program Ended: No legislation authorizing the dividend checks ever
passed through Congress. DOGE officially wrapped up and shut down its operations on July 4, 2026, leaving the rebate plan unfulfilled."

Anybody who believes this new dividend is an idiot.

Anyone who believes an iota of your deceitful TDS BULLSHIT is an even

The next were 'goddamned' lawyers, and SCOTUS you hypocritical old sow! Obviously where precedent may be set a legal opinion must follow.

Oh and...Obammy - so there:
AI Overview
Debates over former President Barack Obama's
adherence to the U.S. Constitution centered on the limits of executive
power and the separation of powers.
Executive Actions and Lawmaking
Critics, including various members of Congress and policy
organizations like the Cato Institute, argued that the administration overstepped its constitutional bounds by using executive actions to
bypass Congress on issues like immigration enforcement and
environmental regulations. https://crawford.house.gov/media/op-ed/obama-ignores-the-constitution
Just last year President Obama said his hands were tied and he could do nothing to change federal immigration policy. Through his actions last week, President Obama has shown that he is willing to forget about the powers named in the Constitution if it means he can score political points.
With his reversal in immigration policy, President Obama really said
that he is willing to pick and choose which federal laws he will
enforce. No person, not even the President, should be above the law. My constituents and every American deserve a President guided by the
Constitution, not election year politics. https://www.cato.org/commentary/top-10-ways-obama-violated-constitution-during-presidency
1. The Chrysler Bailout
Building on the Bush administrationrCOs illegal use of TARP funds to bail out the auto industry, the Obama administration in 2009 bullied ChryslerrCOs secured creditorsrCowho were entitled to rCLabsolute priorityrCYrCointo accepting 30 cents on the dollar, while junior creditors such as labor unions received much more. This subversion of creditor rights violates not just bankruptcy law, but also the ConstitutionrCOs Takings and Due Process Clauses.
This blatant crony capitalismrCogovernment-directed industrial policy to help political insidersrCodiscourages investors and generally undermines confidence in American rule of law. The Supreme Court ultimately vacated the Second Circuit ruling that allowed this farce to proceed; ChryslerrCOs creditors are still out of luck, but thererCOs no legal precedent.
2. Obamacare Implementation
One can, and many have, written whole articles about how the Affordable Care Act is such an affront to the rule of law that its individual mandate and Medicaid coercionrCoboth of which Chief Justice John Roberts rewroterCoare just the tip of the lawless iceberg. On implementation, we canrCOt blame Congress or courts. HererCOs a sample:
The Labor Department announced in February 2013 that it was delaying for a year the part of the law that limits how much people have to spend on their own insurance. This may have been sensible, but changing a law requires actual legislation.
Later that year, the administration announced via blogpost on the eve of the July 4 holiday that it was delaying the requirement that employers of at least 50 people provide complying insurance or pay a fine. This time it cited statutory authority, but the cited provisions allow the delay of reporting requirements, not the mandate itself.
The famous pledge that rCLif you like your plan, you can keep itrCY backfired when insurers started cancelling millions of plans that didnrCOt comply with Obamacare. So Obama called a press conference to proclaim that people could continue buying non-complying plans for another yearrCodespite the ACArCOs language to the contrary. He then refused to consider a House-passed bill that wouldrCOve made this action legal.
A little-known part of Obamacare requires congressional staff to get insurance from health exchanges, rather than a taxpayer-funded program. Obama directed the Office of Personnel Management to interpret the law to maintain the generous benefits.
Obamacare grants tax credits to people whose employers donrCOt provide coverage if they buy a plan rCLthrough an Exchange established by the StaterCYrCoand then fines employers for each employee receiving such a subsidy. No tax credits are authorized for residents of states where the exchanges are established by the federal government, as an incentive for states to create exchanges themselves. Because so few (16) states did, however, the IRS issued a rule allowing subsidies (and fines) for plans coming from rCLa State Exchange, regional Exchange, subsidiary Exchange, and federally-facilitated Exchange.rCY Yes, we can also blame the Supreme Court for upholding this.
The Department of Health and Human Services granted more than 2,000 waivers to employers seeking relief from ObamacarerCOs regulations. Nearly 20 percent of them went to gourmet restaurants and other businesses in former Speaker Nancy PelosirCOs San Francisco district. Nevada, home to former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, got a blanket waiver, while GOP-controlled states like Indiana and Louisiana were denied. Beyond political favoritism, such dispensations violate a host of constitutional and administrative law provisions like equal protection and the rCLintelligible principlerCY needed for congressional delegation of authority to cabinet agencies.
HHS also continues paying insurance companies to compensate them for losses caused by ObamacarerCOs ignorance of basic economics. Alas, Congress never appropriated these funds, so the House of Representatives is suing the administration and won in the district court. Now on appeal, House v. Burwell is stayed until the D.C. Circuit hears from the incoming Trump administration. (Full disclosure: My wife joined the House general counselrCOs office last month and is litigating the appeal.)
3. Political Profiling by the IRS
After seeing a rise in the number of applications for tax-exempt status, the IRS in 2010 compiled a rCLbe on the lookoutrCY (rCLBOLOrCY) list to identify organizations engaged in political activities. The list included words such as rCLTea Party,rCY rCLPatriots,rCY and rCLIsraelrCY; subjects such as government spending, debt, or taxes; and activities such as criticizing the government, educating about the Constitution, or challenging Obamacare. The targeting continued through May 2013, with no consequences other than Lois Lerner, the chief of the exempt-organizations unit, being held in contempt of CongressrCoand then being allowed to peacefully retire despite erased records and other cover-ups. Okay, this one qualifies as Nixonian.
4. Recess Appointments
In January 2012, President Obama appointed three members of the National Labor Relations Board, as well as the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, during what he considered to be a Senate recess. But the Senate was still holding rCLpro formarCY sessions every three daysrCoa technique developed by Sen. Harry Reid to thwart Bush recess appointments. (Meanwhile, the Dodd-Frank Act, which created the CFPB, provides that authority remains with the Treasury Secretary until a director is rCLconfirmed by the Senate.rCY) In 2014, Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the NLRB appointments were illegal, while last year the D.C. Circuit found the CFPBrCOs structure to be unconstitutional.
5. DACA and DAPA
Congress has shamelessly failed to pass any sort of immigration reform, including for the most sympathetic victims of the current non-system, young people who were brought into the country illegally as children. Nonetheless, during his 2012 reelection campaign, President Obama directed the Department of Homeland Security to issue work and residence permits (Deferred Action to Childhood Arrivals) to the so-called Dreamers.
Then, after the 2014 midterms, the president decided that he had been wrong 22 times in saying he couldnrCOt give temporary legal status to illegal immigrants. The administration engineered this Deferred Action for Parents of Americans in the wake of CongressrCOs rejection of the same policies, in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act, immigration law, and the ConstitutionrCOs Take Care Clause. A district court enjoined DAPA in February 2015, which action the Fifth Circuit twice affirmed, as did the Supreme Court by a 4rCo4 vote.
6. Assault On Free Speech and Due Process On College Campuses
In 2013 the Department of EducationrCOs Office of Civil Rights, in conjunction with the Justice Department, sent the University of Montana a letter that became a national rCLblueprintrCY for tackling sexual harassment. The letter urged a crackdown on rCLunwelcomerCY speech and requires complaints to be heard in quasi-judicial procedures that deny legal representation, encourage punishment before trial, and convict based on a mere rCLmore likely than notrCY standard.
As noted civil libertarian Harvey Silverglate explained this week, the administration construed Title IXrCothe federal law barring sex discrimination by federally funded schoolsrCoas a mandate to punish students and faculty accused of sexual misconduct using procedures that make it extraordinarily difficult for innocent people to defend themselves.
7. The Clean Power Plan
In June 2014, the Environmental Protection Agency proposed a new rule for regulating power-plant emissions. Despite significant criticism, it finalized the rule in August 2015, giving states until 2018 to develop plans to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, with mandatory compliance beginning in 2022.
The EPA cites Section 111 of the Clean Air Act as justification for this Clean Power Plan, but that section canrCOt give the agency such authority. Section 111 doesnrCOt permit the government to require states to regulate pollutants from existing sources when those pollutants are already being regulated under Section 112, like those deriving from coal-fired plants. The late Justice ScaliarCOs last public act was to join an order staying the rule pending further litigation (or, as is likely, a rescinding of the rule).
8. The WOTUS Rule
In May 2015, the EPA announced its new Clean Water Rule, which aims to protect streams and wetlands from pollution. The agency insists that the rule doesnrCOt affect bodies of water not previously regulated, but several groups have sued on the basis that the rulerCOs definitions of regulated waters greatly exceed the EPArCOs authority under the Clean Water Act to regulate rCLwaters of the United StatesrCY (WOTUS).
The Supreme Court has thrice addressed the meaning of that phrase, making clear that, for the EPA to have regulatory authority, a sufficient nexus must exist between the location regulated and rCLnavigable waters.rCY The Clean Water Rule, however, purports to give EPA power far beyond waters that are rCLnavigablerCY by any stretch of the wordrCOs definition. Litigation is ongoing.
9. Net Neutrality
In the works throughout the Obama presidency, the Open Internet Rule was adopted in February 2015 and went into effect that June, forbidding internet-service providers (ISPs) from prioritizing different kinds of internet traffic.
The real issue, beyond this rCLnet neutrality,rCY is the Federal Communications CommissionrCOs manufacture of authority to regulate the internet despite clear congressional instruction that the internet remain unregulated. In 2014, courts struck down the FCCrCOs 2010 self-aggrandizement under the 1934 Communications Act and 1996 Telecommunications Act, so the agency doubled down by writing a new rule that equated the internet with telephony.
That creative interpretation allowed the FCC to claim the sweeping discretion it had used to manage the AT&T phone monopoly throughout the 20th century. Moreover, while the FCC touts the regulation as ensuring that the internet remains free of censorship, the rule impinges on the First Amendment rights of internet-service providers.
10. EPArCOs Cap-And-Trade
In October 2015, the EPA issued a carbon-emissions cap-and-trade regulation, establishing for each state limits on carbon dioxide emission, with four interim steps on the way to the final goal. EPA says that this rule, too, is authorized by Section 111 of the Clean Air Act, but Congress considered and rejected such a cap-and-trade program in 2009. Far from being authorized by the Clean Air Act or lying in some zone of statutory ambiguity, this massive new regulatory scheme contradicts the express will of Congress.
ThatrCOs Only The Beginning
It was obviously difficult to narrow that enumeration to just 10rCoand I cheated by putting all the Obamacare shenanigans under one item. Some may complain that I shouldrCOve prioritized other kinds of executive actions, whether regarding guns or transgender bathroom access or electricity regulation. Others may prefer to invoke President ObamarCOs decision not to subject the Iran nuclear treaty to a Senate voterCoaided by Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob CorkerrCOs na|>ve complicityrCoor engaging in the Bowe Bergdahl prisoner swap without notifying Congress. Sadly, the possibilities for this parlor game are nearly endless.
Then, of course, thererCOs the administrationrCOs abysmal performance before the Supreme Court, where its win percentage hovers around 45 percent (as against a historical norm of 60rCo70 percent). The Justice Department has even suffered nearly 50 unanimous losses, half again as many as under George W. Bush or Bill Clinton. These cases have come in such disparate areas as criminal procedure, religious liberty, property rights, immigration, securities regulation, tax law, and the separation of powers. They have nothing in common other than incredible assertions of federal power. The governmentrCOs arguments across this wide variety of cases would essentially allow the executive branch to do whatever it wants without constitutional restraint.

1934. Socialism was popular all over Europe, and Hitler simply high
jacked the term, in order to gain support from the German working
class. And it worked.

And you accuse us of ignorance?

I accused /you/ of harboring ignorant ideas. Don't hide behind "us".
Also, I'd like to add 'shallow and two-dimensional'.

There is virtually no difference between the Nazis/Fascists
and the communists.

See above.

Where fascist are hard core nationalists, communists are
'internationalists', who dream of a borderless world without any kind
of private ownership.

Fascists think in terms of race, nationality, and religious identity, communists regard the human race as one, and they are, of course,
atheists.

Fascism is a strict hierarchy, communism a classless society.

Communism is a dream about a future utopia, and fascists dream about
making their country great again.
