        Taxes are going up. Maybe not soon, but the mushrooming national debt will eventually leave Washington no choice but to hike taxes. And the longer we wait, the more it will hurt.


        The Congressional Budget Office recently forecast annual federal deficits of more than $1 trillion for 2020, and each of the next 10 years. By 2030, CBO says, the deficit will hit $1.7 trillion. Economists generally think a fiscal deficit of around 3% of GDP is healthy and manageable. U.S. deficits over the next decade will average 4.8% of GDP.


        Annual deficits spiked during the Great Recession, when tax receipts plunged and stimulus spending soared. The $1.4 trillion deficit in 2009, at the nadir of the recession, was the worst on record.


        Deficits fell sharply as the economy recovered, however, and hit a post-recession low of $442 billion in 2015. Then they ticked up again, mostly because of runaway health spending on Medicare and Medicaid. Then came the Trump tax cuts, which went into effect in 2018.


        Those tax cuts pushed corporate tax revenue to the lowest levels ever as a portion of federal revenue. Tax revenue from individuals has gone up slightly, because of economic growth. But it would have gone up more without the Trump tax cuts, or with cuts limited to middle- and lower-income workers, say. The twin effect of depressed federal revenue and health care costs growing faster than the economy are driving those trillion-dollar deficits.

            House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stood in front of microphones on Thursday and declared that if President Donald Trump is acquitted by the Senate (a likely scenario), he will not actually be acquitted.
            Pelosi was responding to a reporter who had asked what she would do in the case of the president’s acquittal.
            The speaker stealthily avoided the question.
            “We are right now prayerful and hopeful that the Senate will have the courage to hear the truth about the President’s action, and then we’ll see what we do next,” she said, according to a transcript on her website.

            So WTF? PencilNeck thinks he's KING and NanNan is now the Queen? (or do we have two queens) that think they run the country?


            But when another reporter asked a similar question, Pelosi had one of her famous temper tantrums.
            “When this is over, do you think that President Trump will be chastened and understand that he’s got a Congress watching him? Or will he be emboldened because the Senate will have acquitted him?” the reporter asked.

            “Well, he will not be acquitted. You cannot be acquitted if you don’t have a trial, and you don’t have a trial if you don’t have witnesses and documentation and that,” Pelosi replied.
            “I would hope that the Senators, if it comes to a tie, or if there’s a question of hearing testimony or receiving documents, would leave it up to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court – Republican‑appointed, in a Republican majority court.
            “I would think that they would have confidence in the Chief Justice of the United States. That’s really his title. And that’s interesting to me — that they’re afraid of breaking a tie with a Chief Justice of the United States.

            WELL we all know what a flipflop we had with J. Roberts on the ACA ... don't we?

            Guess the Republicans are afraid of the TRUTH! #NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW

              Senate votes against calling witnesses in Trump impeachment trial

              PoliticsJan 31, 2020 5:51 PM ESTThe Senate rejected a motion to call witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump in a 51 to 49 vote, pushing the trial one step closer to acquittal vote.
              Sens. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Mitt Romney, R-Utah, were the only two GOP members to vote with Democrats in favor of the motion to call witnesses. Sens. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., and Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, who were seen as potential swing votes, ultimately voted with fellow Republicans against the motion.

                Just a bunch of cowards protecting another coward. Quite despicable. Too afraid to call witnesses because they really don't want to officially hear the truth.

                  Apparently Alexander and Murkowski did not want to allow the Trump defense team to be able to call people such as Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Jerry Nadler, Adam Schiff, the supposed whistle blower and every person that Schiff questioned in his secret basement interrogations.

                    Hahaha. Nice try. You know as well as everyone else that the Reps were allowed in those meetings. They choose not to attend and then played the victim card.

                      You do know Republicans where at every deposition.
                      Guess we all know why the Republican don't want witness or documents. Yep Guilty as charged!

                          The Senate did the right thing by not bowing to house dems or giving in on letting the house control the process where the senate has sole power (just like the dems had sole power in their investigation and fucked it up majorly).

                            Pencilneck didn't ALLOW any input from House Repubs...

                            it is NOT the duty of the defense to provide anything to the prosecution.

                            It IS however the duty of the House to provide DUE PROCESS (under the constitution) to the defense.. they DID NOT!

                            NanNan and Pencilneck were running on a full tank of HATE for DJT..

                            Pencilneck told us BEFORE 'russiagate' he had ALL the damning evidence against DJT then..but it never saw the light of day.

                            Also the House violated DJT's 6th amendment rights (face his accuser) THIS TWO is in the Constitution 88you know the document that the Dimwits profess to care sooo much about.

                            but don't worry Johnny Roberts is still on your side.

                            But he will be acquitted .. more and more dems are getting tired of the farce... hell even your Chris Matthews said trump will be re-elected.

                              Nice fairytale.
                              The "accuser" wouldn't happen to be the whistle blower would it? Because, as you well know, he/she is protected under the constitution.
                              The cowardly Reps cowed down to donny because they think there will be something for them in the end. donnys record of loyalty, or lack thereof, should show them they will receive nothing. Except maybe their own chance to be thrown under the bus when their usefulness to donny ends.

                                per house rules BEFORE pencilneck re-wrote them for THIS one, (rules that have been standing forever) the whistleblower WOULD have to be known. ALSO since PN wrote OUT the rule of " no hearsay evidence " allowed, they were able to have the witness kept hidden.

                                PN twisted the transcript wording ( I say outright lied ) and then called it a "parody" AFTER he was busted on it.

                                the main thing you Dimwits are missing is DUE PROCESS was NOT afforded to the Trump defense ..

                                but that won't sink into your tick skulls.. I'm just surprised you claim Trump broke the law... but never produce ANY shred of evidence that WASN'T hearsay. THAT is not ALLOWED in ANY court in OUR land... (maybe not in yours) but that's where OUR Constitution comes into play.. sorry you don't understand that one finite point of OUR laws.

                                STFU and worry about your own cuntry that allows muslims to have their OWN legal system that subverts written law.

                                for fucks sake.... 17 witnesses and shifty and nadless couldn't get a conviction? piss poor he said/she said witnesses !
