“While money can’t buy happiness, it certainly lets you choose your own kind of misery.” Groucho Marx

Poor Joe. Poor us.
Joe’s spending habits are as bad as Hunter’s.
They both hand out money to anyone at all, for no reason at all, as long as it makes them feel good. And as long as there's something in it for them.
These are sloppy guys who never were taught how to handle money. Unfortunately, their ineptitude has hurt all of us.
It’s Joe’s Butterfly Effect. It’s the “If a butterfly flutters its wings in New York, the weather changes in Hong Kong” thing.
A tiny change in a big system can affect everything. And Joe has changed everything.
Over and over when there were choices to be made, Joe chose the wrong ones. In public and private life.
When Joe became president, he reversed whatever Trump did, unconcerned as to whether it was good or bad for the country.
It’s the Joe Show. If it benefits him and his, it’s all that matters.
In a few short years, Joe has managed to weaken our country in any way he could. Inflation, energy dependency, unequal application of the law, recklessly open borders.
Now war in the Middle East. And it wasn’t by accident.
He and Obama have appeased and sent bundles of cash to a notoriously terrorist Iran. They were very aware of what they were doing.
It can all be traced back to Joe, and he didn’t do it alone.
He had Obama.
He had a whole host of like-minded individuals, in Congress, in the courts, in the Intelligence community, in the Department of Justice. Not to mention other weak individuals in cabinet and administrative positions, all in favor of a Fundamentally-Changed America.
And John Kerry. A seriously dangerous guy.
The Climate Czar brokered Obama’s terribly-flawed Iran Deal, and smiled for the cameras after the deal was sealed, as Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei and Iranians celebrated in the streets, shouting “Death to America.”
Not done yet, in 2019 Kerry was a Shadow Diplomat.
He went behind President Trump’s and America’s back to negotiate with Iran’s foreign minister, Jarad Zarif, other world leaders and diplomats to discuss preserving the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal.
He denied doing it, that’s what he does. Just as he denied “owning” a jet plane when asked during a Congressional hearing, why he was zipping all over the world in a private jet.
“I don’t own a private jet,” Kerry snorted, insulted that he was asked.
“My wife owned a plane,” he later added. Reluctantly. Omitting the fact there were photos of him beside the plane. And that the plane was sold earlier this year after accusations of Climate Hypocrisy.
Kerry's Shadow Diplomacy was in violation of the 1799 Logan Act, which makes it a felony for individuals not authorized by the U.S. government to negotiate with foreign governments, which have disputes with the United States.
Kerry will never be held legally responsible for his actions. Just as Hunter Biden never will be.
But Donald Trump will, currently being prosecuted under the Espionage Act, a law dating back to World War I, used to prosecute spies and people who leak national defense information.
It’s the Biden Shuffle.
There are American rules that neither Joe nor Obama observe: Never negotiate with terrorists. Don’t spend it if you don’t have it, but Joe and Obama do both.
In September, Joe paid $6 billion dollars to Iran in a prisoner swap, releasing Iranian oil funds.
Joe’s Secretary of State Blinken will not admit the money sent to Iran was used in the attack on Israel.
No one in the administration will say the funds have since been frozen.
As they will not admit that Iran has anything to do with the Hamas attack on Israel.
President Trump brought home 58 hostages and never paid a cent. But Joe and Obama always pay through the nose. After all, it’s not their money.
They hand out money to anyone at all, for no reason at all, as long as it makes them feel good. And there’s something in it for them.
Hold the line, America.
Stay strong, Patriots
