Council member placed hand on book 'Flamer‚' which depicts a 14-year-old boy learning to masturbate alongside other boys. A board member was ridiculously sworn into his position on the Fairfax County‚ Virginia‚ school board by placing his hand on a stack of books banned from some schools for containing graphic sexual content. The incident happened Wednesday during a swearing-in ceremony‚ where most members sworn-in placed hands on a copy of The Holy Bible‚ sans for two board members‚ Kyle McDaniel and Karl Frisch‚ who used the opportunity to virtue-signal their opposition to “book bans.” McDaniel was sworn-in on a copy of the book‚ “Homecoming‚” based on the Atlantic slave trade‚ which he claimed “is a frequent target of book bans across the country.” Yesterday‚ I was sworn in for my term on the Fairfax County School Board. I took my oath of office on Homegoing‚ a novel about slavery‚ which is a frequent target of book bans across the country.

The only way out of this fiscal death spiral is significant spending cuts. The Biden administration just ran the largest November budget deficit in history. And it managed this feat even with a 9% increase in government receipts. The November budget shortfall came in at $314.01 billion‚ according to the Monthly Treasury Statement. That was 26% higher than the November 2022 deficit. Just two months into fiscal 2024‚ the federal government has run up $380.58 billion in red ink. This follows on the heels of the third-largest annual budget deficit in history. The US government took in $274.83 billion in revenue. That was up from $252.11 billion in November 2022‚ bucking the trend of generally declining government receipts.VasoBeet is now 40% OFF! This beetroot-based supplement was created to provide you with all the benefits of this nutrient-dense vegetable in one easy dose! The federal government enjoyed a revenue windfall in fiscal 2022. According to a Tax Foundation analysis of Congressional Budget Office data‚ federal tax collections were up 21%. Tax collections also came in at a multi-decade high of 19.6% as a share of GDP. But CBO analysts warned at the time that it wouldn’t last.  And it didn’t. Government receipts fell by 9.3% in fiscal 2023. Government tax revenue will decline even faster as the economy spins into a recession. But the real problem is on the spending side of the ledger. The Biden administration blew through $588.84 billion in November‚ up 18% from November 2022. That pushed total spending to nearly $1.06 trillion through the first two months of fiscal 2024. This underscores the fact that the fundamental issue isn’t that the US government doesn’t have enough money. The fundamental problem is that the US government spends too much money. Despite the pretend spending cuts‚ the debt ceiling deal didn’t address that problem. Even with the new plan in place‚ spending will go up. No matter what you hear about spending cuts‚ the federal government constantly finds new reasons to spend more money. Government spending is already historically high. That means big budget deficits will continue and the national debt will mount. The national debt blew past $33 trillion on Sept. 15. As of Dec. 12‚ it stood at $33.85 trillion. Most people seem to think the excessive spending‚ the growing deficits‚ and the national debt don’t matter‚ but somebody has taken notice. Last month‚ Moody’s Investor Service lowered its outlook on US government credit from “stable” to “negative.” This could be a prelude to a downgrade in the country’s AAA credit rating. THE INTEREST PROBLEM This rapid increase in the national debt is happening during a time of sharply rising interest rates. This is a big problem for a government that primarily depends on borrowing to pay its bills‚ and is likely one of the reasons that the Federal Reserve has surrendered to inflation. The borrow-and-spend US government can’t function in a high interest rate environment. Uncle Sam spent $79.92 billion in interest expense to finance the national debt in November. That was more than national defense ($70 billion) and more than Medicare ($79 billion). The only higher spending category was Social Security. Net interest expense‚ excluding intragovernmental transfers to trust funds‚ was $72 billion‚ still more than the amount spent on national defense. A lot of the debt currently on the books was financed at very low rates before the Federal Reserve started its hiking cycle. Every month‚ some of that super-low-yielding paper matures and has to be replaced by bonds yielding much higher rates. The weighted average interest rate on the government’s $26 trillion of outstanding Treasury securities rose to 3.10% in November. That compares with a weighted average rate of 2.22% in November 2022. Rising interest rates drove interest payments to over 35% as a percentage of total tax receipts in fiscal 2023. In other words‚ the government is already paying more than a third of the taxes it collects on interest expense. The bottom line is interest payments will continue to quickly climb much higher unless rates fall. Financial analyst Jim Grant doesn’t think that will happen. He thinks we’re at the beginning of a generational bear market in bonds that will keep rates higher for the next several decades — no matter what the Federal Reserve does. That means the only way out of this fiscal death spiral is significant spending cuts. You probably shouldn’t hold your breath. Major AI Developments Set to Be Announced

64-year-old Tunisian suspect arrested near Canadian border after attempted child kidnapping‚ authorities say An illegal alien from Africa was arrested after he tried to “purchase” a 5-year-old from its mother and attempted to lure the child into his car in upstate New York‚ authorities say. The disturbing incident unfolded in the town of Perry on December 2‚ but Customs and Border Protection (CBP) just released details about the case this week. A woman alerted the Perry Police Department that a man had offered to buy her kid and then tried to “entice the child into his vehicle” in an apparent kidnapping attempt‚ CBP explained in a statement. Perry police arrested a 64-year-old man called Monji Jelassi whose only identification was a foreign-issued International Driver’s License. On December 6‚ agents in Border Patrol’s Buffalo Sector confirmed that Jelassi was illegally present in the United States on an expired visa.Survival Shield X-2 is now 25% OFF!

He was turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and is being held at a federal facility in Batavia‚ NY. Jelassi will reportedly be subject to a deportation hearing at an undisclosed time in the future. “Removing this individual is a matter of public safety and aligns with the interests of our law enforcement partners to remove predators and other dangerous people from our communities‚” said Buffalo Sector Patrol Agent in Charge David Banks. It is unclear how long Jelassi has been staying in the U.S. or when his visa expired.

As expected‚ the FOMC held rates steady at the December meeting extending the rate hike pause into its fourth month. But during his press conference‚ Powell confirmed that the recent rate hike pause was actually the end of tightening‚ saying it is “not likely” that the central bank will hike rates again. The Federal Reserve just surrendered to inflation. Fed officials won’t call it a surrender. They’re claiming victory. But surrender is the effect of the policy trajectory laid out by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) at its December meeting. As expected‚ the FOMC held rates steady at the December meeting extending the rate hike pause into its fourth month. But during his press conference‚ Powell confirmed that the recent rate hike pause was actually the end of tightening‚ saying it is “not likely” that the central bank will hike rates again. While participants do not view it as likely to be appropriate to raise interest rates further‚ neither do they want to take the possibility off the table.” There was little change to the official FOMC statement. The real news was the “dot plot” showing the expected trajectory of interest rates. The Fed has penciled in three rate cuts for 2024 with another four cuts in 2025. That would lower rates to between 2 and 2.5%.URGENT! Keep Alex Jones in the fight against the NWO! Please pray &; contribute at DefendJones.com today! Keep in mind that last month‚ Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell claimed rate cuts weren’t even on the table. “The fact is the committee is not thinking about rate cuts right now at all‚” Powell said during his press conference after the November FOMC meeting. As Peter Schiff said in a post on X‚ it’s pretty clear Fed officials have been thinking about rate cuts for a long time. Policy pivots like this don’t happen in a vacuum. During his press conference‚ Powell emphasized that the central bank doesn’t need a recession to cut rates. “It could just be a sign that the economy is normalizing and doesn’t need the tight policy‚” he said. For the time being‚ the Fed plans to continue balance sheet reduction. But Powell said if the economy slips into a recession‚ quantitative tightening will no longer be appropriate. Inflation Isn’t Beat It seems a little early to put price inflation in its grave. The mainstream hyped the November CPI report as another positive sign that price inflation is easing‚ but the only number that dropped was the annual rate (from 3.2% to 3.1%.) Every other metric was up month on month‚ and core CPI remains mired at 4%‚ double the Fed’s mythical 2% target. Even Powell admits that price inflation isn’t dead. Inflation has eased from its highs‚ and this has come without a significant increase in unemployment. That’s very good news. But inflation is still too high. Ongoing progress in bringing it down is not assured and the path forward is uncertain.” He also conceded that the FOMC doesn’t see the Personal Expenditure Index (PCE) dropping to 2% until 2026. As Schiff pointed out‚ the PCE is not the CPI‚ and it is the official measure that most understates the true inflation rate. Powell is using the PCE as his benchmark as he likely knows the CPI will never return to 2%.” While recent CPI data may reflect a slowdown in rising prices and create a sense of optimism‚ the victory dance is a bit premature. Monetary Policy Isn’t Tight The Federal Reserve raised interest rates from zero to 5.5% relatively quickly‚ and Powell claims that rates are now “well into” restrictive territory. They aren’t. The Chicago Fed’s own Financial Conditions Index confirms this. As of the week ending December 8‚ the index stood at -0.51. A negative number indicates loose financial conditions. And financial conditions are trending looser‚ not tighter. The index was at -0.46 the prior week. Meanwhile‚ the Fed managed to shrink its balance sheet from $8.965 trillion at the peak of COVID-era quantitative easing to $7.737 trillion today. That seems impressive until you consider that the Fed added $4.8 trillion to the balance sheet during the pandemic alone. At the current rate of balance sheet reduction‚ it would take about 7 years just to remove all of the liquidity (inflation) added to the economy during COVID. That doesn’t even begin to touch the trillions added to the balance sheet in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. All of the money that the Fed created both during the pandemic and the Great Recession is inflation and it is still sloshing around out there in the economy. Victory Means Defeat The mainstream financial media is framing this as a victory. The Fed won the inflation fight and that’s why it doesn’t have to hike rates anymore. In his podcast‚ Schiff had a different take. This was not the Fed winning its inflation fight. That’s not what happened. The Fed surrendered. Inflation won the fight.” Schiff went on to say this wasn’t a pivot in victory. It was a pivot in defeat. The Fed stopped hiking rates because it can’t hike them anymore. It’s worried about the consequences of these hikes — particularly how it’s going to impact the federal budget and all of the debt that is maturing and needs to be rolled over in 2024.” It’s important to understand that by declaring victory and pivoting to rate cuts‚ the Fed is returning to the very policies that caused price inflation to begin with. Schiff said‚ “If people thought inflation was bad before the Fed declared victory‚ wait until they see how much worse it’s going to get now that they’ve declared it.” Now that the Fed has said‚ ‘Mission accomplished!’ the dollar is going to tank. Commodity prices should soar. And that is going to reinvigorate inflation. It’s not dead. It’s alive and well. As much as the financial world wants to bury it‚ it’s going to resurrect. It’s going to rise like a Phoenix from a pile of fake ashes.” Powell’s overall message was that the Fed managed to take out price inflation without any significant damage to the economy. In effect‚ Powell is saying “We stuck the landing!” But Schiff said the only reason the Fed hasn’t killed the economy and the labor market is because it hasn’t killed inflation. Inflation is alive and well. That’s the reason. If the Fed really did what it took‚ if it was going to continue to hike rates like it should‚ if it was going to force the government to cut spending‚ which is the purpose of a lot of these rate hikes‚ then we would have seen the damage to the economy. We would have seen the damage in the labor market. It’s only because the Fed surrendered and that inflation has won that we didn’t see that type of damage.” Schiff provided a detailed breakdown of the Fed meeting and Powell’s comments on his podcast.
