76% of Your Income Taxes Are Now Going Towards Interest on The National Debt

When it comes to the money the government is siphoning off you through income taxes, most of it is literally going up in smoke.

The most recent Treasury data showed that as the federal government surpasses a record $35 trillion national debt, $1.1 trillion will be spent on interest payments alone this fiscal year. 

According to reports: Interest payments on the federal debt now account for 76% of all personal income taxes collected. This means that for every dollar Americans pay in income tax, about 76 cents go towards paying interest on the national debt.

Roughly 45%, or nearly half of the federal government’s revenue is from personal income taxes. 

The “76%” statistic is from the latest data from June, which showed that the U.S. government spent $140 billion on interest for Treasury debt securities and collected $185 billion in individual income taxes the same month.

At the turn of 21st century, the national government debt was $5.77 trillion, and by 2010 it had more than doubled to $12.77 trillion. The debt reached $23.22 trillion at the beginning of 2020. And only a few years later on Biden’s watch, it now surpasses $35 trillion.

At this rate, we’ll eventually reach a point where we don’t even bring in enough income tax to cover the interest payments on the debt – also known as bankruptcy.

In the last fiscal year of the Trump presidency, annual interest on the debt were at $521 billion, which was $44 billion (15%) higher than the $454 billion the government was spending the year before he took office. By contrast the government’s annual interest expense under Biden increased by a whopping $619 billion from what he inherited, a 114% increase. 

Phrased differently: Biden screwed up America’s finances so badly that the federal government’s annual interest expense under Trump was closer to zero than it is to Biden’s.

Republican Sen. Launches Investigation Into Google Following Election Interference Allegations

A Republican Senator has launched an investigation amid concerns over censorship and bias on Google’s search engine.

Sen. Dr. Roger Marshall of Kansas launched the investigation, accusing the technological giant of “constricting the free flow of information.”

“Google, the largest Search Engine Operator in the world, has become a propaganda wing of the Left,” he wrote on the social media platform X. “No more hiding behind your algorithm – your time is up.”

The controversy began at the end of July when social media users noticed that certain search terms related to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump were omitted from the recommended autofill options. In addition, searches such as “Trump rally” would instead direct readers to news about presidential rival Vice President Kamala Harris.

“Google’s failure to provide suggestions related to the assassination attempt against President Trump on July 13, 2024, as part of its search function is yet another example of censorship against conservative voices and violates the intent of Section 230,” Sen. Marshall wrote in a letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai. “Omitting suggestions to the most obvious and recent victim of an assassination attempt shows a willful discrimination against President Trump and users of your search engine.”

“Google advertises itself as a search engine and aggregator, not a censor,” he continued. “If Google wishes to become to a publishing firm or editor, Congress could then regulate accordingly by removing the sacred Section 230 protections your firm has long used to silence conservative voices.”

Many on social media were supportive of Sen. Marshall’s investigation.

Others were more critical in their stance on Google.

Texas High School Reverses “Unconstitutional” Removal Of Donald Trump Parking Lot Murals

A North Texas high school was slammed by conservatives online after two pro-Donald Trump slogans decorated in the parking lot were forcibly removed.

Keller High School’s senior students hold an annual tradition of painting murals in their parking spots. Two students, who have not been named, each opted to paint messages of support for the former president.

One mural featured Trump donning sunglasses and a bandanna, while another simply read 45/47 in reference to the Republican’s previous and possible next term as president.

In a since deleted policy, Keller maintained “the right to paint over, confiscate, and re-sell spaces that include content determined to be inappropriate by the administration, including but not limited to controversial, offensive, or obscene material.”

However, the Keller Independent School District later changed course. On Wednesday, July 31, Dr. Charles Randklev, the school board’s president, issued a statement on Facebook.

“You may have heard about a parking lot controversy at Keller High School where students were required to paint over the parking spots in the attached photo,” he wrote on the social media platform.

“Let me be clear. There is nothing offensive or controversial about respectfully painting or honoring a current or former President for the United States of America. We will take action and make it clear that the students can honor President Trump as the 45th, and soon-to-be 47th President of the United States, as they wish.”

Conservative backlash spread quickly when news of the removal was shared – which helped lead to the reversal.

Others alleged the move was unconstitutional.

And they were right.

Google Exposed For Omitting Donald Trump From Search Results

Search engine giant Google is under heavy fire for omitting a number of search terms relating to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

The California-based organization and most-used search engine worldwide hides recommended searches relating to the former president.

Social media users on X first noticed the omissions when searching “assassination attempt on Trump” on Google. Despite the shooting in Butler, PA, being one of the most shocking moments in recent political history, the search engine did not provide an autofill option for users to easily find out more about the day’s events, instead prioritizing the attempt on Harry Truman’s life in 1950.

Upon further investigation, it transpired that it was not just attempts to assassinate Trump which were being hidden. The term “President Donald Trump” did not yield any autofill search results when tested by the Libs of TikTok account.

The ludicrous omissions caught the attention of X CEO Elon Musk. When the business magnate and Trump-supporter attempted to search “President Donald”, he was greeted with alternative suggestions “President Donald Duck” and “President Donald Regan.”

So, what happens when you do search “President Donald Trump”? Yes, you guessed it: you receive (positive) news about Vice President Kamala Harris!

Among Congressional circles, Sen. Ted Cruz noted the omissions, describing Google’s acts as “insane.”

“They are gas-lighting the American people & trying to erase the attempted assassination of Trump,” he wrote on X.

It’s not the first time Google has come under fire this year following the news of a “scenic route” option being banned on its Maps service out of concerns it would lead to more people visiting majority-white towns.

Young Men Are Becoming More Conservative, Poll Finds

After years of insufferable identity politics from the left, young men are increasingly flocking to the Republican Party according to a new poll from the Wall Street Journal.

The poll reveals a marked shift to the right by young voters since 2013.

Eleven years ago, less than two in five 18-29-year-old men identified as Republicans (38%), with that figure dropping as low as 36% by 2016.

However, Donald Trump’s presidency, as well as Joe Biden’s to an extent, has fueled a rise in conservativism among young men with 49% of those surveyed now aligned with the GOP.

12th-graders have also seen a shift in their political beliefs. While teenage girls have remained predominantly liberal, the number of conservative boys has surpassed liberal-minded adolescents since 2010, with the gap widening to around 10 percentage points once “don’t knows” are factored in.

On a more recent scale, Biden’s tenure in the White House has seen support drop among all demographics and voting options for young adults.

Liberal women aged 18-29 outnumber Republicans by more than 30 percentage points in congressional ballots. However, young men have switched from the Democrats with the GOP leading by 12 points heading into November’s elections.

The trend matches the presidential ballot too. Biden continues to lead Trump by 30 points among 18-29-year-old women, but Trump leads his former presidential rival by 14 points for the opposite gender.

Some blamed the Democrats for this shift among young voters to the right.

Other users noted the huge divide between the two genders with women seemingly becoming more liberal.

LGBTQ!?@# Adds More Visual Confusion to Already-Ugly Pride Flag

Click on the video below to watch 38 seconds of an apparently legless person with a sing-song and manic affect tell you all about the latest uglification of what’s being called the “progress pride flag.” We’re going to assume that this is a man, but nothing is certain these days. 

In case you don’t want to subject yourself to that much leftie audio, Wokespy will break it down for you!

This is the original gay pride flag. It was never known as the “LGBT” flag until recently. 

Around 2015, a new set of deviants calling themselves “trans” and “queer” somehow climbed to the top of the privilege hierarchy among sexual minorities, displacing plain old-fashioned gay people with those who claimed to have different “genders.” “Abimegender,” for example, is a “gender” that is “profound, deep, and infinite.”

And that’s when the rainbow clown crew started jam-packing the old flag with all sorts of clashing colors and aesthetically baffling symbols to depict the alleged existence of ever-weirder micro-categories of sexuality. 

Our friend in the video above gives us a brief tour. After introducing the “classic” rainbow flag, he points out that the black and brown bands are to “represent people of color,” who, presumably, were not represented by the literal rainbow. Or something. The baby pink and blue stripes are there for “trans folx,” a yellow triangle for “intersex folx,” and the two feathers in what looks like a donut stand for “indigenous folks that identify as two-spirit.”

On that last one: For a group of people who say they’re concerned about being inclusive, it seems strange to represent American Indians with feathers, considering that only some tribes used them in headdresses. And that whole “two-spirit” thing? It’s not some ancient tribal tradition. The idea was coined at some gay and lesbian conference in 1990. 

Social media users are reacting as you would expect them to. 

Well, Natalia, neither can they!

Mr. Beast Sidekick Accused of Sexting with 13-year-old

Is there anything that “trans” has not contaminated? From movies to television to school curricula to (mostly female) church preachers to children’s programming, it’s all trans, all the time. Time was it was considered, well, weird to be a grown man in makeup and girlie clothes. Now the transvestites of yesterday’s daytime talk shows, presented as the studies in human oddity that they were, are pushed in our faces as “real women.”

But wait-there’s more! Wildly popular Youtube video maker “Mr. Beast,” known for elaborate video pranks and philanthropic give-aways, has a trans sidekick. MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, boasts a relatively young audience base of over 300 million subscribers on YouTube, and is known for his elaborate and often philanthropic videos. He’s gained widespread recognition for his attention-grabbing stunts, large-scale challenges, and generous donations, often giving away large sums of money, cars, and even houses to strangers and fans.

This has been known for a while since viewers started noticing that co-host Chris Tyson had started to look and act a little more effeminate.

Well now Chris, who abandoned his wife and child, is “Kris”, and “she” is telling everyone that female hormones “saved” “her” life. 

“I am a woman! She/her. I’ve never said that publicly, but I’ve been fully confident in that decision for over a year now,” he said in a recent interview.

But wait—there’s even more! Kris Tyson isn’t just any trans woman; it appears Tyson may be interested in children for reasons other than paternal. The campaign group Gays Against Groomers, made up of homosexuals fighting against the encroachment of child abusers and pedophiles into what used to be simply called the “gay community” has this:

The trans community, amazingly, was more concerned with his bad it made them look, rather than express any concern for the minors involved.

Now, these are all still just allegations, but talk around Chris Tyson’s sexual interests potentially veering into the “inappropriately aged” category has been going on for some time. This video makes additional allegations:

Social media users seem unsurprised at the accusations, and why shouldn’t they be? We’ve been screamed at for years that “trans women” are real women, normal in every way, even when these lady men are caught perving in women’s bathrooms and worse.

Wokespy One-Shot: Episode 1

I’m Joshua Slocum with a Wokespy One-Shot:

Republican House Rep. Tim Burchett criticized the head of the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle, in the aftermath of the attempted assassination on Donald Trump, branding her a “diversity hire” 

Amid heavy criticism of the agency’s handling of security at Trump’s now infamous rally in Butler, PA, on Saturday, July 13. People are asking how shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to get on an open rooftop around 400-500 feet away from the former president’s stage.

Then we have footage of a female Secret Service agent failing to holster her gun. Along with her inability to shield the 6’ 3” Trump, the Secret Service is under the microscope.

The agency aims to increase the number of female staff to 30% by 2030, while director Cheatle – formerly senior director of global security at PepsiCo – has previously called for more “diverse candidates” to join the agency.

Speaking to Fox News, Rep. Burchett blamed DEI initiatives for the failings at the Trump rally.

“Somebody really dropped the ball. You’ve got a DEI person, a DEI initiative person who heads up our Secret Service,” said Burchett. “You know she was working at Pepsi before this. I know she was a former CIA Secret Service agent, but still, this is what happens when you don’t put the best players in.”

Many on social media were in agreement with Burchett’s remarks about the dangers of DEI hiring.

Others speculated as to whether Cheatle would remain in post should Trump win the presidential election in November.

One-Third Of Democrats Believe Donald Trump Staged Assassination Attempt

One-third of Democrats believe it is “credible” that former president Donald Trump staged the assassination attempt on his life on Saturday, July 13.

As with every major event in recorded history, conspiracy theorists cooked up some ideas of their own over the shooting in Butler, PA. While the motive of 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks remains “relatively unknown,” it is clear that he attempted to end Trump’s life as he addressed voters at the rally.

The events of that day are well publicized. A last-minute head tilt by Trump saw the bullet pierce his right ear, and Trump was protected by Secret Service agents while a counter sniper took out Crooks. Although wounded, the Republican raised a fist (resulting in the now iconic photo) before he was hurried off to a local medical center.

Despite the event’s taking place on live television, and the tragic death of 50-year-old firefighter Corey Comperatore, a staggering 34% of Democrats have fallen for the BlueAnon conspiracy that Trump staged the day’s events according to the Washington Free Beacon

Joe Biden ally Dmitri Mehlhorn has helped spur on the conspiracy, describing it as a “false flag” operation akin to those seen in Vladimir Putin’s Russia. Meanwhile, MSNBC hosts Michael Steele and Joy Reid have even suggested that Trump was not shot in the ear.

Many commenters on social media platform X were stunned by the poll’s findings, with most directing criticism towards the distasteful faction of the Democrats.

Others drew comparisons with similar polls regarding conspiracy theories.
