Sorry, the truth is never invited to the party. There are 20,000 registered voters in Mason City, yet 14,000-15,000 of you (yes, I’m talking to you) will not bother to vote. Don’t let a small group of voters decide this election. Show Mason City you care. I need your help – I need your vote. I can’t help you if you don’t help me.

“No more money downtown” “No to higher taxes”
TRUTH!!!!!!!
Rotflmao!!! Weaver only got 25% of the votes?!?!? Every time this racist turd runs, he just gets beat by an even wider margin!!!
You are truely a IDIOT. There were only 3,oo people out of 20,000 registered voters that voted. That was because no one know about it due to the media and establishment keeping it quiet. Adams wouldn’t even debate Weaver because he knew he couldn’t win. What a weenie!!!
Weaver by landslide today wait and see. Rachie coming to town for another check tonight signed by Schikle.
Doubt it. Most sane people won’t vote for a guy that goes on a racist tirade during the housing meeting. That type of behavior is not real attractive to perspective employers that may be looking at our community

You are a idiot. There was nothing racist about his comment. She is a woman, she is over 50 and she is a Muslim. Dumb asses like you don’t know the difference between being racist and a cult. They can’t even be called a religion and they are certainly not a race…
His comments were absolutely racist and inexcusable. You are a horrible person for defending his racist tirade.
The truth is never racist and you are nothing but a race baiter. Muslim is not a race you idiot. It is a cult.
You are a horrible person. Max’s behaviors was totally inexcusable. I wish ball cancer on both you racist turds.
Let’s do away with all types of entrance exams and any form of test taking in any classroom. Let’s just hand out diplomas like participation trophies and be done with it. No tests for lawyers, doctors, teachers, pilots, or any body. Let’s cleanse the entire system of any kind of testing. That way, people don’t have to cheat or buy their way into an education system. Furthermore, do away with all federal/ state student loans and let the colleges/universities loan money…..
That’s obviously the way you did it.
That is correct. Probably call them all Trump School for the educationally disfunctional.
Yep let’s give everyone a reward and no matter how low we go, let our education go even lower at any cost to.make people happy! What kind of message are we sending to our young people? It sounds like young people do not have to strive and make their lives better because they will be rewarded no matter what. Why would a person strive to improve themselves when all they have to do is show up? Sounds like a typically socialist mindset. No matter who you are we will simply give it to you and your minds can bestupid. We can control stupidity but not intelligence.
You should know all about that.

LlVvSs is a genius
Max’s comments at the housing meeting were indeed racist.
When you steal from your employer, destroy company equipment and assault management you just don’t Blong here. Tell your momma hello.
President Trump is the one who’s doing his best to create the utopia for the American people not sleepy joe! The only utopia he would create is for him and his cronies while the rest of us would be in extreme poverty. The left is clueless and are only the puppets of George Soros.

And you’re one serious dumbass.
L*V*S you stupid old goat.
If the DEMS would stop the assault on our President all these problems would not be coming out of the woodwork. The DEMS have made America look weak in the eyes of our enemy.
Wrong. https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/468844-ex-evangelical-pastor-joshua-harris-says-supporting-trump-has-been-damaging?fbclid=IwAR354HW6Wsvp5GPdVeKhfvNW0OGO2f7ao4R8J3GNhYQloVFLF8mf1QDGoPA#.XcDEERamdEp.facebook
You mean while Trump has pissed off all of our true allies like England, Germany France, Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, et al, Trump has sucked up to the likes of North Korea and Russia.
Trump is Putin’s little bitch and the worst person to have ever sat in the Oval office.
Trump is nothing more than a lying, traitorous draft-dodging coward.
You LIBS and DEMS keep beating the same drum. Evidently you believe if you keep repeating the same LIE that people will eventually believe it.
And you’re a typical LIBUFFOON. When the facts don’t support the Dem narrative, you make up your own.
It was MSNBC and CNN who beat the Russia drum for 2+ years.
Barack Obama told Putin to “cut it out”. If anybody is “Putin’s bitch” it’s Barack Hussein Obama
Yes Nancy, speaker of the treason, the facts ARE clear. YOU & most of this congress are the most criminal & treasonous in US history, & need to be removed & incarcerated.
Including the Republican-controlled Senate?

TRUTH!!!!!
MAX IS THE MAN. He has my vote.
No way I’m voting for Weaver after his racist tirade at the housing meeting a few weeks back. No business in their right mind would locate to a city that elects a loudmouth racist like that.
So why is trump president?
Trump has a college education and a full time job. Weaver? Not so much
Weaver doesn’t need a college education. He has something they will never have. It is called “STREET SMARTS” and natural intelligence.
Street smarts is just something stupid people claim when they can’t conprehend complex ideas. Weaver is as dumb as a post.
Putin
You are so Dumb you make Stupid look smart you Chickenshit S.O.B. I didn’t delete anything.I guess you just don’t Blong here. Steal anything lately. You do blong to a family of thieves. I will be around long enough to piss on your grave. Tell your momma I said Hi.
You are the best President in our history. Keep up the good work, we are with you! Deputize your followers and you will have the largest army/security force in the world!
Hey whiner, you crybaby P.O.S. I will be around long enough to piss on your grave you chickenshit S.O.B. Tell your momma I said HI!
By the way, You are so stupid you make dumb look smart. I wasn’t the one who deleted you first comment, although I probably would have because you just don’t Blong here.
Yeap! Join the rest of the white supremacists that follow this so called president!
You got it wrong it was the Democrats that founded the KKK and the ones who fought for slavery and voted against the Civi Rights Act. Do your research before you open your mouth
That was a long time ago. Today the right wing wackos like yourself have adopted the KKK’s philosophy and wish for a return to slavery while Democrats fight against your obvious white supremacist views.
NIACC AUDITORIUM:They need to look at the auditorium as a separate identity and hold the GM accountable for all utilities and outcomes from shows. It is a business, it should be run as such. They keep hiring the office secretaries/past music teachers that have no business knowledge. If they were actually held accountable for expenditures, the public could see the failure. Music teachers are NOT concert booking agents or promoters. The once great facility is now a squeaky chaired mess. Maybe promoting with the actual school population in mind might be wise. Not too many college kids want to see “Dumbo live on stage”.
Great Point. I have also thought the NIACC performing arts people have missed the boat by not putting on shows for the universities population base. Thousands of students buy tickets IF it is worth seeing. Most consider the shows a joke.
Maybe whomever is appointing these directors needs to be replaced?
The NIACC Gym and the Auditorium need updates (chairs/carpets). Less NIACC department directors and more infrastructure. I have never seen so many hired as department heads or in positions that makes you go huh.
I real auditorium staff that runs it accordingly with real music talent or allow the present staff to hire a promoter FT to assist. SOMETHING!

Music teacher from Forest City? No booking or talent agency background. Nice person though. Make a good auditorium secretary.
It’s a shame, but nobody is watching closely enough to make a change. Nice job no accountability.
Is NIACC a public entity, meaning, can one view last years budget,expenditures,utilities and profit-loss statements from the venue?
Right on all counts, Joel. It would help if they had some actual entertainment/music industry contacts, as a number of people in the area do, just not anybody who works there. Music Man Square has the same problem, no manager in the past or now has been properly qualified to run a venue, which is a lot different than teaching music or possessing a degree. You need to know how to make the place cash flow, and they have yet to get anybody at NIACC or Music Man Square who does, but they won’t hire anybody like that.
Our friend here in MC has all that experience. He has years in that talent booking atmosphere and major talents. But he doesn’t teach music so nope.
There is a number of people in Mason City who fit that description, but none of them work at NIACC.
The facility caters to the retirement sector of the town, much like the arena caters to hockey only

I think that Adam full of Schiff should be be investigated, I would like to know who is paying him or what has been promised to him to become close to one of the most hated men by at least 50% of this Country. He has been caught in lie after lie. Let these lying POS’s that call the people that voted for President Trump name after name…WE DON”T CARE WHAT THEY THINK OF US!!!!, it can’t be any worse than what we think of them. They all need to remember that what goes around comes around!!!!
We don’t care what YOU think.
You’re mad because he is investigating your daddy trump! GET OVER IT!
Another victory for religious liberty secured by the Trump admin. By eliminating harmful restrictions put in place by the Obama admin, faith-based adoption & foster care providers will once again be able to receive federal $$ without compromising religious beliefs.

“No more money downtown” “No to higher taxes”
TRUTH!!
I’ll pass on Weaver. We can’t comtinue to chase away business and industry in this town. We must take on a more progressive and professional decorum if we’re ever to get this town growing again.
I am so sorry, the current elected officials have not made ANY effort to bring in jobs with sustainable wages. Other towns around us have drawn businesses that pay good wages, but it seems they bypass Mason City.
Still, the leader of Mason City…namely the unelected dictator of the our elected officals….still continues to put the cart before the horse in building a multi-million dollar venue that few will use, and a hotel that will be out classed by one in Clear Lake, and apartments that are far too expensive for the average person in town.
Oh, did I forget the River Walk proposed by the Mayor….the one that will rival what they have in San Antonio?
Who will move to a city if there are NOT economic reasons to do so? Many have moved out, and will continue to depart, because there just is not the wages they desire.
What are you talking about??? Elected city leadership brought us a prospect for 2000 jobs!!!! And people like Weaver chased it away. His decorum in meetings is the exact reason HyVee didn’t even consider Mason City for the distribution center currently going up in Austin.
Mason City was able to leverage private investment to build a recreational destination for the region and salvage one of the largest tax paying pieces of real estate in North Iowa. Clear Lake gave a developer $3M to build a no-name hotel on a prime piece of real estate (a hotel would have located here had there been no incentives). Mason City got the much better deal.
Yes, leverage. What has come of that?
Thus far, no money has shown up other than the local bonds which we in Mason City will have to pay back.
Then what about the $2 million the hockey people said they would pay? Nothing so far, not a penny.
The private investment has yet to break ground. Yet, the unelected Dictator of Mason City demanded the project get underway. Without that “leveraged” cash in hand.
Max was not in office during the Presage debate. And opposition to the plant was larger than those who supported it.
Now then, your claim about HyVee’s distribution centre. The decision for that centre was made in 2016. Mr Weaver was not in office (left office in 2011) when HyVee made the decision for Austin.
And for the record, in March, HyVee decided not to build that centre at all. But KC is getting a new centre.
Largest tax paying property in North Iowa? I think not. Without taking out a yard stick, nor spending hours on the County GIS, the largest tax paying real estate in North Iowa is a railroad.
In fact, right across the street is a property worth almost 3 times the value of the Mall. And they pay their $335.5k every year.
At the moment, the Mall has not been salvaged. It has a tax lien of $161k, and still owes $325k. Of course that means no TIF funds as a result, which was supposed to be use to fund the Ice Arena bonds.
And where will that leave us?
Since only a small segment of the community will go watch amateur hockey, the rest of us will end up paying for the facility. There will be no increase in people visiting Mason City than we already for amateur hockey games.
We are losing another big box store, losing 20 jobs. We lost 100 jobs at Shopko. There are 21 vacant storefronts downtown. There have been other job losses.
The population in Mason City has been declining for a few years, with no end in sight, and no prospect for sustainable jobs coming.
So please tell us, how this is a positive thing for the taxpayers in the community?
I can’t tell if you’re purposely trying to be misleading with many of your arguments or whether you really think those things are true? Example: the mall taxes are not going unpaid. Truth:the mall taxes have been paid in full, but a portion has been paid (with interest) late. Tax liabilities NEVER go away. They are always paid. The TIF financing will be collected unquestionably.
We agree that physical retail markets have too much capacity in a macro sense. This isn’t unique to Mason City and physical stores are closing everywhere. This is why it’s fantastic we have leadership that realizes we have a problem. One of our largest tax paying entities in the region (you verified this claim in a very circuitous way) was in danger of going away.
You also seem to agree with me that this town hasn’t added jobs in decades. I fail to see how Weaver would reverse this trend and you offer no theory or evidence how he would either. Seems to me, Weaver has actually been anti growth. He’s actually chased away existing businesses (IC Systems) or lead groups who’ve chased away good prospects (Prestage)
Was there ever a whistle blower? This whole story could be lie to the American people. If the Democrats have enough evidence for an impeachment, they would be transparent as possible. They have nothing and using this for another fishing expedition.
Yes bot there was a whistle blower. How do you think the whole fiasco was reported? Did Trump report it himself? Someone listening to the call had to feel there was something wrong with it. As far as transparency goes, the next phase of impeachment will make it perfectly clear what they have. Police don’t make their investigations public until they are sure they have enough evidence to prosecute.
Not a Bot at all. Just a lot smarter and faster than someone from a crime family that just doesn’t Blong here
You may not be a bot but certainly are a clot – of crap. Didn’t respond to any of the points made, just called names.
You are not worth answering. You are so Stupid you make Dumb look smart.
Oh ouch, that hurts. You are such a meanie.
The LEAKER AKA Whistleblower got it sooo wrong that HE must come forward. The Fake News Media knows who he is but, being an arm of the Democrat Party, don’t want to reveal him because there would be hell to pay. Reveal the Whistleblower and end the Impeachment Hoax!
It’s no hoax, as you know, but the fact that you’re this terrified for your man Trump says it all. Also, your man Chuck Grassley wrote, sponsored, and got the Whistleblower Protection Act through Congress and made into a law, and the rules regarding the closed hearing room were put into place by the Republican majority, led by then House Speaker John Boehner. You have nobody to blame for yourselves for all the things you’re bitching about now.
The Deep State is stepping things up with the hope that they can railroad President Trump BEFORE he uncovers all of THEIR corruption. They are afraid…very afraid! I just hope Barr gets things uncovered soon, and gets THOSE hearings underway.
Eleven bot posts in under 10 minutes, and don’t even start with “better and faster than you” BS. Even with all the meth you take you couldn’t do it that fast, and the system can’t even accept them that fast, it tells you to slow down and go back. It can obviously accept software submissions that fast though, as we see, every morning.
Unfortunately our government is corrupt hence the extreme hatred for our president. He is disrupting and exposing these people for what they are and the swamp is using everything in its power to stop him including their puppets the media. But what they don’t realize is that good always prevails over evil.
Bot.
You know little or nothing about our country. The founding fathers wanted the government to serve the people. They put into the Constitution that we owe our allegiance to the country not the President. They realized the President was just a man (or woman) just like everybody else and he/she should not be above the law nor should he be worshipped like a god. You haven’t figured that out yet.
Now does anyone wonder how Obama got elected, and how deep the resistance to Trump goes. This undercurrent effort has been in the works for a long time.
Bot.
But but but a few months ago they were saying that the “deep state” was just a made up conspiracy theory and now finally they’re slowly admitting that it is real. They all need to be brought to justice, let’s get the gallows ready!
Nobody has said anything of the kind! More bot lies, but at least the punctuation has improved.
I’m appalled by the lawlessness that came out of the last administration. I’m more appalled by the complacency with which it is accepted by the media and clueless people
Bot.
This arrogant piece of shit “LEAKER” not a whisleblower needs to remember who he worked for. He swore an oath the the Constitution of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, not to the elitist, globalist overlords for whom he obviously thinks are smarter and know better than the deplorable American people who elected President Trump.
And certainly not to Trump, bot.
BUTT.
Are you like 9 years old?
Are you like a woke dumbocRAT?
That’s how you get rich create conflicts and sell to both sides . Still happening funding oil in one country and funding anti oil in another . Have you bought your ANTIFA shirt yet ? How about your I support oil T shirt ?
LOL that is classic Facist Republicrook arms dealer tactics, like they did in World War 1, World War 2, Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East, and are doing again now.
Moochel, they all laughed at your Husband as President. He will go down as the worst President ever!
No, they didn’t, but Trump is a laughingstock, and making our whole country into one tool.
And we should believe you for what reason? https://today.yougov.com/topics/international/articles-reports/2019/07/18/2019-worlds-most-admired
ODD or Criminal? Both the Nixon & Clinton Impeachments Were FIRST Voted Upon before ANY Investigation Began then Ran & Controlled by the House Judiciary Committee….WHY for 37 Days was SCHIFF & the Intel Committee NOT Nadler & the Judiciary Committee Permitted to behind Closed Doors Control & Investigate these SO CALLED High Crimes & Misdemeanors?HOW Is IT Schiff Still IS? Because the Tainted BIAS Mueller Investigation FAILED? Because the FBI,DOJ,CIA,NSA & REST of the Obama Admin COULDN’T Find Any Wrong Doing OR Evidence EVEN when they Spied,Phone Tapped,TRIED to Manufacture IT?
Nixon resigned before the House voted and long after the investigations began.

TRUTH
The Democrats are actually being destroyed by all of the President’s accomplishments. They can’t stand it. Plus, they would love to take charge at the height of these successes because in spite of them being there for decades, they have not managed to accomplish what he has. Envious haters is what they are.
Hello there bot. Same time as last night too. Good job.
Are you stalking me?
In your dreams, loser.
You are! don’t let me catch you.
Hello there BUTT. Same time as last night.
What a juvenile dimwit flunkout frat boy you are. Is that the best you can do?
They hate Trump because he is draining the swamp and is going to uncover ALL of their crimes against this GREAT nation.
You’re an idiot.
You’re an idiot and a fool.
You’re an idiot and a stupid old goat.
Wasn’t me. Your a dumb Ass Molester
That’s funny. When someone says old goat, Lllarreeyy answers it wasnt me. At least you know your an old goat – and a dumb one at that.
Trump IS the swamp.
What the Demoncrats hate most is what Donald Trump, as POTUS, has done, is doing, and will continue to do. All things the Demoncrats said couldn’t be done. Things that only a truly Patriotic American, who is his own person could do with courage, knowledge, experience, and integrity. Qualities not one Demoncrat has demonstrated.
Gov’t has no right to confiscate these firearms from law-abiding Americans. And if the federal gov’t ever attempted to do so, the result would be insurrection.
Bot.
Butt.
What a juvenile dimwit flunkout frat boy you are. Is that the best you can do?
Austin the liberal meca of Texas !! Has been invaded by Hollywood types from California and going to turn Texas into another shit hole just like this shit hole I live in California !!! Wake up Texas Hold on to your conservative rights or before you know it you will be getting stupid laws like banning straws and giving out free needles and safe zones to shoot up !!! And people shitting and pissing in your streets !!!
We don’t believe for a minute you live California, but on the off chance you do, go spam up a Northern California Today website. This one is North Iowa Today.
What amazes me is all these people who can’t run their their states or cities they were elected to run – and they expect us to elect them to run the country – not on my watch! Hopefully not on anyone else’s that truly loves God and Country.
Yeah, he’s a real pro. Bought the Trump Plaza Hotel for $400 million, and it was repo’ed by the bank. Bought a yacht for $29 million, it was repo’ed by the bank. Built 4 casinos at a cost of $3 BILLION, filed for bankruptcy and went out of business, stiffing contractors and employees, and destroying the casino business in Atlantic City. Started Trump Airlines, never made a profit, planes and helicopters repo’ed by Citibank. Trump Mortgage, Trump Vodka and Trump Steaks all went out of business, and so did Trump University, which fraud investigators closed, and which still owes students and contractors money. Yup, financial genius.
I guess Pete is a tuff individual in a sissy coating.
I’m sure he could kick the crap out of you.
First of all the climate has been changing since the earth began. We are actually in the longest period of a constant climate in the earths history. Too bad they stopped teaching reality in schools and only teach the Liberal Agenda. A lot like when Hitler controlled what people were taught.
there have not always been living beings on earth who pump billions of tons of C02 into the atmosphere though. That is something that has only existed for the last 100 years or so.
Folks, you MUST read this!
Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America. The audience sat spellbound as he described eight methods for the destruction of the United States. He said, ‘If you believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let’s destroy America. It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall and that ‘An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.” ‘Here is how they do it,’ Lamm said: ‘First, to destroy America, turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country… History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar, Seymour Lipset, put it this way: ‘The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy.’ Canada , Belgium , Malaysia , and Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy , if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, Corsicans and Muslims.’ Lamm went on:
‘Second, to destroy America, invent ‘multiculturalism’ and encourage immigrants to maintain their culture. Make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal; that there are no cultural differences. Make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due solely to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds. ‘Third, we could make the United States an ‘Hispanic Quebec’ without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: ‘The apparent success of our own multi-ethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentricy and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.’ Lamm said, ‘I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure that we have various cultural subgroups living in America enforcing their differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their similarities.’ ‘Fourth, I would make our fastest growing demographic group the least educated. I would add a second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic to our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50% dropout rate from high school.
My fifth point for destroying America would be to get big foundations and business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult of ‘Victimology…’ I would get all minorities to think that their lack of success was the fault of the majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the majority.’
‘My sixth plan for America’s downfall would include dual citizenship, and promote divided loyalties. I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other – that is, when they are not killing each other. A diverse, peaceful, or stable society is against most historical precept. People undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation together. Look at the ancient Greeks. The Greeks believed that they belonged to the same race; they possessed a common language and literature; and they worshiped the same gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic games. A common enemy, Persia, threatened their liberty. Yet all these bonds were not strong enough to overcome two factors: local patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political divisions. Greece fell. ‘E. Pluribus Unum’ — From many, one. In that historical reality, if we put the emphasis on the ‘pluribus’ instead of the ‘Unum,’ we will ‘Balkanize’ America as surely as Kosovo.’
Next to last, I would place all subjects off limits. Make it taboo to talk about anything against the cult of ‘diversity.’ I would find a word similar to ‘heretic’ in the 16th century – that stopped discussion and paralyzed thinking. Words like ‘racist’ or ‘xenophobe’ halt discussion and debate. Having made America a bilingual/bicultural country, having established multi-cultum, having the large foundations fund the doctrine of ‘Victimology,’ I would next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra: That because immigration has been good for America , it must always be good. I would make every individual immigrant symmetric and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them.’ In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm wiped his brow. Profound silence followed. Finally he said, ‘Lastly, I would censor Victor Davis Hanson’s book ‘Mexifornia.’ His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If you feel America deserves to be destroyed, don’t read that book.’
There was no applause. A chilling fear quietly rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the conference. Every American in that room knew that everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly, yet pervasively across the United States today. Discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are ripping the foundation of our educational system and national cohesiveness. Even barbaric cultures that practice female genital mutilation are growing as we celebrate ‘diversity.’ American jobs are vanishing into the Third World as corporations create a Third World in America Take note of California and other states. To date, ten million illegal aliens and growing fast. It is reminiscent of George Orwell’s book ‘1984..’ In that story, three slogans are engraved in the Ministry of Truth building: ‘War is peace,’ ‘Freedom is slavery,’ and ‘Ignorance is strength..’ Governor Lamm walked back to his seat. It dawned on everyone at the conference that our nation and the future of this great democracy is deeply in trouble and worsening fast. If we don’t get this immigration monster stopped within three years, it will rage like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its path, especially The American Dream.
These possible taxes to cover Medicare for all are absurd! I’d rather keep my current insurance and my current doctor and continue paying what I pay. Government has proven it cannot do very much efficiently or cost effectively. Let the free market decide what works and does not work. Once government controls health care, they will control what you eat, how you dress yourself, how you live, your exercise choices, and more importantly whether or not you need that life saving surgery based on your age, weight, sex, race, religion, and so many other factors that will decide if you live or die (I’m sure it would be based off of whether you’re a Republican or Democrat too).
The greedy rich, used to getting everything for free, including what belongs to others, will be paying for it, or you’re going to see the French Revolution all over again.
Can they not do basic math? Do they not understand that no one will work if they are taxed at the rates they are proposing not to mention the wealthy are the ones who create all the jobs for the non wealthy to begin with. So no one will have jobs and no one will have money. Life seems very bleak under their administrations
That job creator bullshit is just that, bullshit. They move money around, steal, and create bare sustenance level jobs in other countries. They want everybody too exhausted to give them any trouble, and those chickens are coming home to roost.
Are you really that freakin STUPID???
The plan: Kill the economy, and jobs, increase federal expenditures, trigger complete economic collapse, followed by austerity and the resultant riots answered with martial law! Then we will be like Venezuela! How wonderful!
Democrats have a new insane idea
That’s the result of the lack of leadership in New York, California & a few more. If you have a mutt leading the pack your sled may end up in a garbage dump.
The anti-Semitic comments from Representatives Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib cannot be tolerated. Neither can the attacks on Israel from these two in Congress. It’s time that Reps. Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar are censured.
Crazy bitch Warren, no sense! Wrong figures , they are much higher cost and yes it would cost the middle class as usual. But if they get enough of these “everything free “ people to vote . Our America is danger
Multiple bot-posts bitching about women. Who hired you, bot-boy? Somebody in Sioux City?
That is one way to completely destroy your economy. Everything for all businesses is SHIPPED and DELIVERED via Semi-Trucks ! They are the lifeblood of any modern economy ! California legislators have lost their collective minds !!!!
More rapid fire bot posts. Might want to program the software algorithms to reflect the end of daylight savings time, pal. Whoever hired your services isn’t getting their money’s worth.
Paul Ryan is a traitor weenie! Were you wondering why Republicans did not go after Hillary and Obama? Now we know why! ‘SOMEBODY’ stopped it!
LOL now HE’S a traitor too? YOU’RE THE TRAITOR, SCUM.
Hillary Clinton used a private email server for the sole purpose of shielding her activities from the Freedom of information act. The Obama DOJ colluded with the FBI to protect Hillary from legal trouble for doing so. Obama used the IRS as a weapon to attack conservative non-profits. The Obama administration put weapons in the hands of criminals.
All true.
Philadelphia: 3 Black Women Beat Homeless Man to Death for Racial Slur Towards Child — Child Admits Racial Slur Never Happened
Senator Elizabeth Warren (who, in all probability, will be the 2020 Democratic presidential nominee) has, effectively, lost the election. Future historians will correctly state that Ms. Warren, for all practical purposes, lost the election to President Donald Trump on Nov. 1, 2019. Take this one to the bank; it’s baked in the cake.
OsamaObama boiled the water and now we see the results. Apparently anyone can do anything as long as they are a group not associated with the members of LAW ENFORCEMENT.
Dumbass Trumpanzee.
But then calling a Trumpanzee a dumbass is being redundant.
Everything about a Librafool is redundant. You really need to find different material. Your Dumb Ass is showing.
Wait until the union workers find out that Fauxcahontas’s plan simultaneously eliminates their Cadillac healthcare plans and removes that benefit as negotiating leverage in future labor disputes.
You don’t care about the unions. You want them dissolved so don’t speak for them.
You are right. Unions are outdated and un-needed. All they do is drive up cost for the rest of us. They should make what they earn, not what they want.
So when unions are gone, we’ll all be making $5 dollars an hour, 7 days a week, 40+ hrs a week, no overtime pay, and no days off. Be careful what you wish for. History can and will, repeat itself.
agree with you. Unions are the core of our society. We are where we are now because unions demanded better working conditions besides what you mentioned. Unions had apprenticeship training .
That’s the first time you have ever been right about anything.
It is just beyond my comprehension how this ridiculous gaggle of hens the VIEW remains on public television. The kind of hatred and vitriol they exude towards our president…and anyone else they don’t agree with…is hardly a positive influence on the world and only adds fodder to the already rampant hatred and anger in this country. Why does anyone watch?
Why do YOU? You obviously don’t like it, and all you’re doing is helping them by giving them free publicity. Then there’s that couch potato yelling at the tv thing. Get a life, man.
Apparently, liberal students at Drake fear opposing views.
I look forward to seeing what action the administration and faculty take. If they allow this oppressive decision to stand, then clearly their claims of embracing diversity will be nothing but hollow words.
The administration fully supports the Student Senate’s decision. They point out there are at least 5 organizations that fall on the conservative side of politics. If the TPUSA wants representation, then maybe they need to put more members on the Student Senate.
*WHAT YOU LIVE WITH YOU LEARN,
WHAT YOU LEARN YOU PRACTICE,
WHAT YOU PRACTICE YOU BECOME,
WHAT YOU BECOME HAS CONSEQUENCES!!
You might want to remember that.
Drake Student Senate showed the student body the only diversity they appreciate is that with which they agree. We are disappointed that Drake student government leaders are not willing to allow the full diversity of conservative students to feel represented equal to their liberal and progressive counterparts.”
Drake Student Senate’s disappointing decision to block a conservative club from forming on campus last night is in direct conflict with the foundational principles of diversity of thought and exposure to adverse opinion that make college campuses a thriving environment. The decision is a disservice to the student body and is a historical low point for the Drake campus climate as a whole.

I thought we were all gonna die because global warming and melting ice caps. What’s next were all gonna die because of global cooling and the ice caps are to big?
Very nice spelling! Did you ever go to school or graduate? WERE? (WE’RE) TO? (TOO). Learn how to spell before you post shit you have no clue what’s happening DUMB ASS!!!

No one cares except a NAZI Teacher
Just remember Harry Reid’s nuclear option. This will come back and bite them later.

That’s how stupid Democrats are they think they can do anything with no repercussion
So do you, apparently.
Porn Bartender, must have found a way to give a little something/something, to get her way… Maybe like under the podium like Billy Boy……
You Trumpers have no right to question anyone’s morality considering who your leader is.
She’s an attractive, educated, accomplished female, exactly the kind who won’t give a loser like you the time of day. That’s what really bothers you about her.
Warren is the modern “intellectual.” Out of touch, out of time, out of her mind. Crazed and angry, fists flailing, punching the air to hide the fact she’s 70, not 35. She’s unelectable.
More woman-hating Republicrap.
“For the third time in a row since Common Core was fully phased in nationwide, U.S. student test scores on the nation’s broadest and most respected test have dropped, a reversal of an upward trend between 1990 and 2015. Further, the class of 2019, the first to experience all four high school years under Common Core, is the worst-prepared for college in 15 years, according to a new report.”
Bernie owns 5 homes..never worked a day in his life. Yep he relates to us.
You are lying. again. https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/05/24/bernie-sanders-millionaires-226982
Liberal trick. Repeat the same lie over and over and over. Maybe some Dumb Ass will believe it.
So you admit you are lying? Good, that is a start. Now, can you read well? If so, read the article.
Noticed that NIT has paid ads from Paul Adams. Nothing from Max.
Vote for Max, a man for All the people!
Trump stole billions from veterans’ healthcare and retirement benefits to build an inadequate wall that a $100 Sawzall can get through in under 10 minutes. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/smugglers-are-sawing-through-new-sections-of-trumps-border-wall/2019/11/01/25bf8ce0-fa72-11e9-ac8c-8eced29ca6ef_story.html?fbclid=IwAR1rwtPDlBDwozRVlc5CnTi_y6K7CLbV1FVI4Ro1-Sl8h8eVVXZfRsiM3yg
An Internet bot, also known as a web robot, robot or simply bot, is a software application that runs automated tasks (scripts) over the Internet. Typically, bots perform tasks that are both simple and structurally repetitive, at a much higher rate than would be possible for a human alone. The largest use of bots is in web spidering (web crawler), in which an automated script fetches, analyzes and files information from web servers at many times the speed of a human. More than half of all web traffic is made up of bots.
Efforts by servers hosting websites to counteract bots vary. Servers may choose to outline rules on the behaviour of internet bots by implementing a robots.txt file: this file is simply text stating the rules governing a bot’s behaviour on that server. Any bot that does not follow these rules when interacting with (or ‘spidering’) any server should, in theory, be denied access to, or removed from, the affected website. If the only rule implementation by a server is a posted text file with no associated program/software/app, then adhering to those rules is entirely voluntary – in reality there is no way to enforce those rules, or even to ensure that a bot’s creator or implementer acknowledges, or even reads, the robots.txt file contents. Some bots are “good” – e.g. search engine spiders – while others can be used to launch malicious and harsh attacks, most notably, in political campaigns.
Demonrats believe they are above the law. Just take Biden at face value. Why hasn’t the Demonrats asked him to step down in light of his Burisma, & China dealings with Hunter. He’s on video admitting it. Demonrats will go down in History as the most corrupt politicians ever.
HELLO BOT!
A stupid bot, too. Third graders have better spelling and grammar.
That one isn’t a bot. It’s Llaarreeyy Veronica Schneiddderrr. He is a tool.
Bot, bot, who’s got the bot? Hard-right Nazi Republicrooks on NIT.
The Demonrat leadership should be immediately charged, arrested, prosecuted, sentenced and have that sentence carried out for their crimes of treason, espionage, subversion and terrorism against this Constitutional Republic and sedition against a duly elected and sitting president.
Who’s paying for your services, bot-boy? Some overseas communist Russian scum who wants to divide our country even more than it already is, thanks to their plant, Trump, or the Koch Family scum?
You could move to their districts and vote against them, but you’re a bot, so you probably can’t vote. Oh, wait, you’re the same bot who hacked the last election, aren’t you? So I guess you can.
Nancy your son had involvement in Ukraine also, where is the investigation there, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,corrupt
Do a better job or get out, bot.
Demonrats have stepped over the line this time and should be arrested for treason. Once convicted they should be hung in the public square for all to see. If we continue to allow this to happen we will have a civil war soon.
More BOT-and-paid-for propaganda lies, and not even done well. Looks like the weekend bot crew must be on duty.
That’s all you got is denial of the truth. I think you are the bot. Same old lie time after time.
So you’re the guy who hired the bot company, then.
U.S. employers added 128,000 jobs in October, brushing off the 40-day General Motors strike, which analysts believed would cast a shadow over the economic outlook. The unemployment rate was little changed at 3.6 percent, near a 50-year low.
Assuming these numbers are true, which is doubtful since no documentation is provided, it’s likely most of the hires are low-paying seasonal positions that didn’t start until this week. It’s also probable that the number of actual persons is about a third of that, since each one would need at least two if not three jobs just to break even. It’s also people with full-time jobs taking part-time second jobs to make Christmas money.
Seems ODD that we hear every once in awhile Your Average American getting Fined, doing Jail Time for Voting in Multiple States Campaign Funding Violations..Illegals Voting. WHY is it Debbie Wasserman-Schultz & Donna Brazile Got NOTHING for the Crimes & Schemes they committed from the Federal Election Commission?
They’re in line behind all of the Dumpsters who committed crimes. The committee should get to investigating them in March of 2045.
I want to see these Demonrat clowns charged and convicted of subversion, treason, and violating the Logan Act. At least dereliction of their elected office oath, to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States.
You’re not the boss of us!
Yes, I am!
That is the problem with you right wing wackos. You do think you are the boss of everyone and that everyone has to believe as you do or they are treasonous. So silly and so paranoid.
So NOW it’s An Official Impeachment Inquiry…SO what Do YOU Democrats Call the 37 Days of SCHIFF’S Closed Door Investigation & what WE Can only ASSUME Under Oath Testimony? Just Screwing Around Wasting Time & Tax Payer Dollars?
The law and the dictionary call it and investigation.
Democrats know nothing of Law and Order. All they know is lying and cheating.
LOL couch potato watching “Law and Order” reruns! Couldn’t come up with anything better!
