I know Congress is all but useless but is there no Representative that has a problem with Grandpa Joe just giving away weapons?

Well starting tomorrow, it had better not be an incandescent light bulb or the Briben administration will have you arrested.

Stat News did an analysis on how many in congress and state houses are on the take from Big Pharma in 2020

https://www.statnews.com/feature/prescription-politics/federal-full-data-set/

https://www.statnews.com/feature/prescription-politics/state-full-data-set/

Perhaps they could now feature a look at how many have been bought by defense contractors?

And while this is interesting and informative, it does NOT take into account how much stock in both sectors is owned by these elected officials.

Someone in Congress actually called this out - Rand Paul maybe? I read so much stuff I can't always keep track.

That is the truth! My BIL told me to "just keep a spreadsheet with every new fact...and links to all the info." I told him there aren't enough hours in the day...

I figure I'm blessed without spreadsheets and trying to keep it that way! Lol Just leaves a load of info to store in the ole brain...

I have a 'system' for organizing and filing information, I do research for business planning for a living. Started using my system for covid news in 2020 and it just mushroomed from there. But sometimes I just randomly watch/read stuff my friends send me and I am like, oh I'll file it later....

Do you understand what "drawdown" means? It means he's giving away our stock of weapons, so when WE need them, WE will not have them. Get it?
