Who do we blame for the terrible destruction of drug addiction?

The user, yes.

The pusher, certainly.

But most of all, the drug cartels -- these massive, secretive, corrupt foreign organizations that manufacture the product and run an illegal distribution operation, employing and training the pushers, waving enough cash around that it attracts a seemingly endless array of applicants to become pushers in their Cadillac-and-gold-chains black market business.

In all our efforts to bring our national drug problem under control, our efforts have been tragically unsuccessful in attacking those cartels.

Without destroying the cartels themselves, it’s an impossible battle, because new pushers arise to replace every pusher who’s imprisoned or killed.

Other kinds of crime work the same way, especially at the national and international level.

And the world got a lesson in how to respond this weekend in the Middle East.

Israel finally hit Iran in a long-awaited retaliation, on Saturday morning, October 26.

Regarding the border invasion of America, there are waves of people passing through Mexico from even as far as South America, requiring that they traverse the treacherous Darien Gap, but their journey is not without substantial patronage from the US government, United Nations, and sinister NGOs.

While it is expected that Catholics, Jews, and other mainline Christian agencies would contribute to America’s invasion, it is most unfortunate that evangelical Christian organizations are doing so too.

At the north end of the conveyor belt, the SBC’s Send Relief sponsors several projects in coordination with the Baptist River Ministry along with the progressive Cooperative Baptist Fellowship.

At the beginning of the immigration conveyor belt would be Samaritan’s Purse, the Christian charity helmed by Franklin Graham.

Harris and Walz have made a thing of “turning the page,” but the page that must be turned is the one they are on.

In recent years, beginning with Obama, the Democratic party has become unmoored from its basic center-left policies and embraced ideas and policies that are illogical, absurd, and increasingly unpopular. Things like these:

• Allowing open borders coupled with a very generous social welfare system to be tapped by all who enter;
• Endorsing chemical castration of children and allowing transgender women into the private spaces of actual women;
• Engaging in endless wars in which we have no genuine national stake;
• Supporting UNWRA, which exists solely to attack our longtime ally Israel;
• Issuing regulations that limit productivity in everything in the name of preventing the chimerical and unproven climate change;
• Fighting all efforts to make national elections auditable;
• Ignoring the violence on college campuses;
• Committing significant First Amendment violations and pursuing frivolous lawsuits against their opponents;
• Defunding the police and allowing crime to flourish in blue cities;
• Embracing corrupt dictatorial international bodies like WHO and WEF;
• Promoting DEI policies that are discriminatory and result in ethnic and racial identity, rather than merit, being the criteria for hiring and promoting employees.

As Twitchy readers know, we have to be very very very very very (did we say very?) careful when writing about election interference in any way because we don't want Big Tech spanking us. So while we are sharing this post from Kylie Jane Kremer, we can neither confirm nor deny if this is true.

But we think it's important enough to share so here we are.

Sounds like Kremer believes that Secretary of State Bradfor Raffensperger may be up to no good.

Take a look:

?GA ELECTION INTERFERENCE?

The GA SOS is up to no good and gearing up to go after the Georgia State Election Board (SEB) members and others not willing to certify the election and/or those willing to shine the light on any potential fraud in this election

Her post continues:

“Raffensperger sent an email, in a private capacity, that went to a listserv of trial lawyers across Georgia soliciting $5 million by November 1st to help in his effort for a 501(c)4 called “Election Defense Fund,” asking lawyers to donate or contact him via his private gmail account & personal cell phone number.

 

In this email, Raffensperger states, “Election Defense Fund, Inc. is a 501(c) (4) dedicated to protecting this year's election results, and standing up against those who attempt to delay certification. EDF will identify local election officials who are most likely to not certify or otherwise attempt to interfere with results."

Global liquidity is expanding. In the past three months, the global money supply has soared by $4.7 trillion.

This rapid increase started when the Federal Reserve panicked the first time and delayed the normalization of the balance sheet in June.

Since then, we have seen a chain of fresh stimulus policies implemented by developed economies, adding to the large fiscal packages already in place.

Multi-trillion-dollar investment packages like the EU Next Generation Fund now include massive deficit spending plans.

However, money velocity is not rising.

All these programs only lead to secular stagnation. Government projects and current expenditures are consuming money at an unprecedented rate.

Developed economies cannot live without new and larger spending plans. The result is more debt, weaker productivity growth, and declining real wages.

In a recent report, Bank of America showed that the rise of unproductive debt has created a significant problem for the United States economy.

For every dollar of new government debt, the gross domestic product impact has slumped to less than fifty cents. The United States is drowning in unproductive debt.

However, at least the United States has some productivity growth.

If we look at the euro area, the negative multiplier effect of new government debt is extremely evident.

Despite enormous stimulus plans and negative nominal rates, the euro area has been stagnating for years.

Many of you may believe that bad policies and careless government spending are to blame, but I think this is intentional.

It is a slow process of nationalizing the economy.
