Image of the Day: "Bidenomics" Crushes Consumer Confidence

Consumer spending accounts for approximately two-thirds of the U.S. economy, so Joe Biden's crushing impact on consumer confidence helps resolve his apologists' confusion over Biden's economic disapproval.  After inheriting an economy rebounding from the Covid shock, Biden's policies quickly drove consumer confidence back downward, where it continues to stagnate.  No wonder he finds himself in such electoral hot water.

A Chicago area woman is suing a local police officer after he used a $132 speeding ticket he issued to track her down to ask for a date, saying that the least he could do was buy her dinner for costing her so much money.

Evangelina Paredes is suing Stickney (IL) cop Chris Collins, alleging he violated her privacy by searching motor vehicle records for her address and then leaving her a handwritten note on her car windshield asking for a date. 
 
A copy of the note was included with the filing in the U.S. District Court in Chicago, and said:  "It's Chris...that ugly bald Stickney cop who gave you that ticket. I know this may seem crazy and you're probably right, but truth is I have not stopped thinking about you since.  I don't expect a girl as attractive as you to...even go for a guy like me, but I'm taking a shot anyways."

“The letter caused plaintiff to suffer great fear and anxiety,” the lawsuit says. “Plaintiff could not believe that a police officer would use his access to her personal information to find her home and stalk her.”

The lawsuit also names Stickney Police Chief Joseph Kretch and the village of Stickney.

"I didn't expect debates in 2024. It seemed to me that there was too much risk involved for both Biden and Trump. Nor is there a mandate of heaven for presidential debates.

Do you believe televised debates between President Biden and former President Trump will actually happen or will fall apart for many potential reasons?
