Nicolas Maduro claimed victory in Venezuela's presidential election last week, but much of the rest of the world isn't buying it.

----------
Economist and author Arthur B. Laffer and L.P. presidential candidate Chase Oliver debate the resolution, "Among the candidates actively running for President in November, Donald Trump is the best choice."
Defending the resolution is Laffer, who is widely recognized as "The Father of Supply-Side Economics," as his Laffer Curve is one of the main theoretical constructs of supply-side economics. Dr. Laffer was a member of President Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board for both of his terms and was a founding member of the Reagan Executive Advisory Committee for the presidential race of 1980. He also advised Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher on fiscal policy in the UK during the 1980s. In 2019, Dr. Laffer was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Donald Trump.

Parody of Florida Georgia Line's "Dirt" written by Remy; performed by Remy; mastering by Ben Karlstrom.
LYRICS:
You need the lot bigger
Need this log thicker
You need to pay a really pricey, licensed pipe fitter
You can't put floors on it
Or put more doors on it
You need a sweaty dude to inspect on all fours on it
I've got buyer's remorse on it…
It's that permit approval the county is stuck on
That each minute passing you're spending a buck on
The constant code changes they're running amok on
The traffic studies you're stuck on
It's a roof that you must ensure is ready for solar
The toilet you're using the flushing is low-flow

The U.S. is headed for "the most predictable economic crisis in history," as Bill Clinton's former White House chief of staff once put it. Why? Because of the mountain of federal debt that we keep making bigger and bigger.
For the first time since the wartime economy of the late 1940s, U.S. debt is roughly equal to the value of all the goods and services our economy produces in a year. When World War II ended, all that spending on tanks and aircraft came to a quick end. But the major drivers of today's debt crisis are Medicare and Social Security, and their price tags are set to keep rising. So what does President Joe Biden promise to do about this looming crisis? Absolutely nothing. And Republican l...
