Today is the 207th day since the Trump inauguration. Remember that day, Jan 20, 2025? It was supposed to be the day The Clown was going to end the Ukrainian/Russian war. 🤣🤣🤣
Your basis for blaming Biden for that war, is that he was weak on Russia.
I have not seen any POTUS in my lifetime being weaker on Russia than Trump.
My god man, are you blind and deaf? Your guy is humiliated again and again.
European leaders want to be involved, just so Trump doesn't FUCK IT UP.
Every time they see your clown near Putin, they hold their breath thinking "Will we be at nuclear war after this or did he gift Ukraine to Russia, for a weapons deal with Russia?"
That's maybe a bit of an overstatement, but not by much.
Pope Leo XIV is the most liked famous person in the world.
Elon Musk is the most hated famous person in the world.

Gallup. It's in the link and on the chart. That's a reliable surveyor.
Good that you think about that. Don't forget it, when it's something that you like.
There was zero ad-crap when I opened the link. Maybe your PC is infected with adware.
Why Gallup Is Trusted:
- Scientific, transparent methodology: Gallup employs rigorous research methods—including probability-based random sampling, demographic weighting, and maintaining long-standing trend series—to ensure credible results across topics like politics, health, and well-being. Their Methodology Center emphasizes this commitment to quality data.
-Global reach: The Gallup World Poll covers over 150 countries, surveying approximately 1,000 people per country using in-person or telephone methods depending on coverage, allowing for internationally comparable data
- Low bias in reporting: Media Bias/Fact Check rates Gallup as “least biased” with “high credibility,” noting a 69% accuracy rating in political polling and only a slight right-leaning skew (~+0.6).
when i hear about the pope or the catholic church i just think of a bunch of old men and young boys with sore ass's . i can't see how a pope that really does nothing can be preferred over someone who is changing the world with technology.
If it comes out that Pope Leo was hiding scandals,
you can be sure that he would drop all the way down.
At this moment, he appears clean to most people.
He also doesn't contribute to your Christo-fascism,
but speaks out against it. Everyone except you likes that.
This is evidence that you are a much smaller group than you want to believe.
People obviously think that Elon is changing the world more for the worse,
than for the good. Technology can be positive, but fascism isn't, ever.
Don't overestimate Elon's positive effect. He promised the world affordable electric cars. He is not delivering, he keeps building too expensive cars. He could easily deliver what he promises, he is the wealthiest man in the world, but he keeps failing on his promises. People take that in consideration when they judge him.
to make a car in the US, Elon can't make them much cheaper and they last any length of time or be of any quality. and that is the last thing we need, poorly made us cars,
because china has cheaper labor, cheaper raw materials, cheaper technology, than America. so Elon would have to make everything in china to make it cheaper to sell here, so he employees Americans and makes mid range priced cars.
Cheaper labor, sure.
Cheaper raw materials, probably somewhat. Why, though?
Cheaper technology? Not really, they just have lots of government investments.
Labor is only a tiny part of car manufacturing. Cars are mostly made by robots.
Elon could make cheaper electric cars, but he doesn't want to. He wants to be a trillionaire. He doesn't care about humanity or nature, he only cares about what makes him wealthy. He could once talk a good game, and he invested well, but now his mind is fucked, probably from all the drugs he's taking. Electric cars were a good investment. I told you many times that I liked him for making EV's cool. But, I also told you that EV's are not saving the world, they are just saving the car. If he is not delivering the cars that humanity needs, but keeps making the big, expensive ones, he's not doing anything positive. He's only taking lots of tax-dollars, to give rich people a good feeling for driving electric. That money could go to better goals.
I don't consider China 'good', but they are better than Elon.
They are actually investing in technology that humanity needs to survive.
ON EARTH, that is, while Elon is investing in humanity surviving on Mars.
He is wasting lots of money on that fantasy, while he takes money from people who need it. That's why I dislike him, besides being a fascist.
Of course, that's much to complicated for most people who answered the poll.
They just saw him turn X into a fascist conspiracy theorist's wet dream
and saw him do the Nazi salute. Those are good reasons to hate him.
I clicked on it and it was easy to read. I know that sexual abuse by Catholic priest is a shame on the Roman Catholic church but, in the whole, the Church does a lot of good. As far as asking everyone, you really think that Born Again Christians or Protestants would have a favorable view of the head of another religion? And while we are at it, you think the United States is that influential on the religious beliefs of the rest of the world? Most other societies believe Americans are a pagan society.
Actually, most people i know think that Americans are totally weird when it comes to religion. The jehovas, the Mormons, the evangelicals, the pentecostals, the televangelists,.... all kinds of shit cults.... all those are American phenomena. They are the face of America in the rest of the world because they're good at propaganda and proselytising. Europe is infested with such weirdos, particularly the Jehova maniacs and the Mormonic crooks.
There is a difference in Europe though. The extremely religious here are mostly decent people-loving people, nice people to have as neighbors. Even the politicians of those Christian 'extremists' are nice sympathetic people.
However, in the US, they are fanatical monsters. Their politicians are horrible back-stabbing liars, who abuse their power to destroy public schooling, with the goal of getting to indoctrinate other people's children. They also show an amount of hate, towards everyone outside of their cults, that has equals in history of very frightening times. In my country they are humble, in the US, they are downright evil.
Oh yes, I fully agree. I only said that the impression Europeans (and not only) have about American religion is that it's a cult or a bunch of cults, such as the ones I mentioned. They're schizophrenic.
I think it would have been hot to be a 14 year old boy in a Catholic Church and the priest asked me to his chambers and fondled me till I got good and hard then he takes my clothes off and fucks and sucks me till I cum in his mouth sounds like fun to me I wouldn’t have told anyone
Some boys are fully straight and not ready for sex at 14.
The problem is that they are forced, and then get told that THEY sinned.
First they teach them everything related to sex is a sin, and then they r@pe them.
That has fucked up many kids, who suffer from it their whole lives.
However, some have said that the intolerant religion did more damage than the r@pe.
Don't confuse the feelings of 14 y.o. boys, with those of dirty old men, like us.
Many of them were much younger, by the way. Some were girls too.
Sex is fun for consenting adults. Kids might start experimenting before they are adults, but that's no reason for adults to be involved with that. That usually turns out to be very damaging. Not everyone is ready at age 16 or 18, some much earlier, but that's an arbitrary limit that we have set as society, to protect the children who are not.
Or is this some coping for your president, who has very like abused under@ged girls. Understand that being a forced prostitute has no safe age limit, to prevent damage.
He is weaponizing the legal system and the FBI, to keep himself out of prison.
Presidential immunity doesn't cover sex-crimes, from before taking office.
Yes, but the whole thing about the Clown and Biden and all the crap in this country’s politics is one boring joke. Nothing can happen until the midterms so why waste breaths on the likes of Dgraff, Phart or their like. If someone is ignorant of why things are happening (like food prices still very high), no amount of reasoning will change them. Let them sink just like the rest of us. Me? I’m going for a swim to survive 97*F days.
well, that explains the tsunami
i am joking ok? i don't swim or the statue of liberty would need a air bottle
i know what is going on in the real world. we are in a transition from liberal bs policy's and regulations that cripple our country to more common sense.
you can't haul anything for any distance with a truck trying to get 65 mpg.
Under the Biden administration, NHTSA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had issued rules aiming to increase fuel efficiency significantly, reaching a fleet-wide average of 49 mpg for passenger cars and light trucks by 2026.
A 2024 NHTSA rule established standards aiming for 65 mpg for passenger vehicles by 2031.
So repeal them, but, this is going down as the hottest year in the Earth’s history. So, the EPA is repealing greenhouse gas prevention legislation. Why not? You can now be happy until nature re-fries your brain. Notice I said RE-fried.
You should NOT wait with resistance until the midterms.
You might not even have midterms, if it's up to Trump.
Disengagement is a sure way to lose your democracy.
Ananas, I’m tired. My country has developed one of the most ignorant, stupid, societies in the history of the planet. Let my kids and grandkids fight the ignoramuses that walk my land. I don’t care anymore.
I can empathize with that feeling, they are fucking tiresome.
But, democracy can be destroyed very quickly and it takes decades to restore.
Trump's presidency is staggering, the fall can come quickly, if everyone pushes.
You have a lot of years still in you. Don't live it out under fascism.
well, that's like a liberal,when the fighting gets tough they hide.
the younger generation can't even decide if they are male or female, and you expect them to care about democracy? hell, as long as they get a check each month, they are not going to give a shit.
You're right actually, the large majority of the Democrats are lying down in defeat.
You know why? Because they took money from the wealthy just like Republicans.
The wealthy pay the Republicans to fight for them, and they pay the Democrats
to bend the knees for them. That's why the libs are WEAK.
The only true fighters are THE LEFT. I think even you can see that.
It never took any courage to be a Republican. The wealthy got their backs.
Never any consequences, no matter how many laws you break.
Get rich doing nothing.
At least the libs have to make believe that they are doing something for the people.
Republicans just say that lazy and brown people caused your poverty,
and that lower taxes for the rich will bring you (better paying) jobs.
Best lie ever, when you have enough stupid people to vote for you.
Being a MAGA politician is the easiest job ever. You go on TV, to spread lies
once a week, you don't have to think, or write complicated laws, you just break shit, never show up for work, while the money keeps flowing in from the wealthy, Israel and Russia, and the stupid cult members.
Phart, get a new line. Your shit is so old. You are one of the reasons I’m so bored with this shit politics your boy brought to what used to be a great country. Go pedal it somewhere else to people who gives a crap.
He broke the f__king country. If he’s so good why am I paying twice as much for food as the day of the election? Why are we constantly tittering on an economic disaster? For f__ks sake, even after six months in office he still can’t get his pet tariff program together? This feels like a bad flu where I get Montezumas revenge for the next two yrs. You think I gave up? I haven’t. I just know how to wait to the count of nine before getting up again.
Because you’re living beyond your means because you live in one of the most expensive states because you’re old man left and you now have to foot the bills on your own you can’t have steak every night on a hot dog budget
Dgraff
I’m not living beyond my means. What gave you that idea?
Florida is very expensive, that’s true, but in certain areas only Mostly due to DeSantis and the damn snowbirds (mostly Repuckers) and home insurance.
Both Woody and I have good retirement and money in savings accounts. Either one of us can afford living alone.
Not on a hotdog budget but, I get my meats from GRAZIANO’S meat market (google it, their restaurants are to die for) their aged Argentine imported prime meats, including chorizo sausage and blood sausage are next to none except for Brazilian meats. Hotdogs are for the uneducated pallets.
It’s going to take a little time to straighten out MR magoos night mare just hang in there prices are coming down i can now buy eggs for 3 dollars a dozen milk is down to 4 dollars a gallon gas is holding steady at 2.98 a gallon heating oil is down to 2.79 per gallon like phart said we are in the transition stage
Trump is about to take over Fed, so he can lower interest rates.
That will very much NOT lower your inflation.
Do you know what Trump did, to lower the oil price? He didn't increase US extraction. "As of August 2025, U.S. crude oil production is approximately 13.5 million barrels per day (bpd), marking a slight decrease from the record high of 13.63 million bpd reached in December 2024."
So, why is the price of oil down?
1. Increased OPEC+ Production
OPEC+ has raised oil production quotas, with an additional 547,000 barrels per day (bpd) scheduled for September 2025. This move aims to balance supply and demand but has contributed to a supply glut, putting downward pressure on prices.
2. Weakening U.S. Economic Indicators
Recent economic data from the U.S. suggests a slowdown, with growth falling below potential levels. This raises concerns about reduced oil demand, particularly in the OECD countries, leading to downward revisions in global consumption forecasts.
3. Trade Tensions and Tariffs
The looming August 1 tariff deadline imposed by President Trump has created uncertainty in global markets. Investors are concerned about potential disruptions in trade relationships, which could negatively impact oil demand and contribute to price declines.
So, Trump is destroying your economy and global investments, which results in lower oil prices. Oil prices increased under "Mr Magoo", because the economy was BOOMING. Simple supply vs demand.
You don't understand inflation. The prices of groceries aren't an effect of inflation, they are one of the indicators of inflation. The prices of food are determined by supply and demand. If harvests are destroyed, the price of food goes up. If some company destroys their competition and becomes a monopoly, they can raise the price of their product and their profit margin.
If energy become more expensive, because there is a global energy crisis, that will affect the cost of all products that require energy to manufacture.
Interest rates are also a demand and supply issue, of money itself. If you lower the interest rates, you increase the supply of money, not the demand. Then the "price" of money goes down. In other words, you decrease the value of money, making everything you want to buy with it more expensive, especially from products from countries with lower inflation, because your value decreasing currency buys less of it then.
don't you realize the threat of us drilling our own oil reminds the middle east that we can do for ourselves and unless they sell oil to us cheaper than we can drill and pump it for, they won't sell us any at all? hurting their pocket books. duh.
Sure, now what did you not understand of these numbers?
13.63 million barrels per day in December 2024, $71.72 per barrel.
13.50 million barrels per day currently, $66.85 per barrel.
Why was the oil price higher under Biden, while the US produced more oil then?
I'll tell you, it's DEMAND. When the economy cools down, demand for oil declines, resulting in lower prices.
One example is the 2008 financial crisis. Before the crisis: In mid‑2008, crude oil prices (Brent and WTI) peaked at record highs of around $140–$147 per barrel due to strong demand and market speculation.
During the crisis: As the global financial system collapsed and demand plummeted, prices fell dramatically, reaching around $30–$40 per barrel by the end of 2008 and early 2009.
Recovery: Prices gradually recovered as economies stabilized, climbing back to the $70–$80 range by late 2009 and eventually over $100 in subsequent years.
You might think that Trump is doing a good job, when they oil price goes down, but unless he achieved anything on the demand side of energy
(not just oil), the oil price going down is an indicator of the economy cooling down.
Those are higher than when he took office. So, how long is it going to take for him to prove his promise, “I will drop prices on the first day in office “?
I bet it’ll get better on January 21, 2029.
Those prices are definitely not high then when he took office get your facts straight
Eggs were 6 dollars a dozen
Milk was 5 dollars a gallon
Gas was 4 dollars a gallon at least
Heating Oil was 5 dollars a gallon
You Democrats are all alike you lie through your teeth and hope America 🇺🇸 don’t remember
Dgraff, quoting a few items whose price went down, don’t cut it. The truth is:
“ Upon his inauguration, Donald Trump made lowering the cost of living a key focus of his economic agenda. However, the economic reality regarding price changes following his inauguration presents a mixed picture:
Inflation: Overall inflation eased slightly during the first few months of his administration, according to government data. However, this didn't necessarily mean prices were decreasing across the board, rather that the rate of increase in prices slowed. More recent reports indicate inflation is once again ticking up, with consumer prices in June 2025 showing a 2.6% increase compared to the previous year.”
How about you try this
Put your electronics down grab your bifocals and go out shopping for the day see what things actually cost instead of posting google look ups and consumer reports and phoney numbers and percentages from the left side Marcy works for a food chain she tells me every day what is up or down cody8789 can tell you firsthand because he works for a food chain also don’t forget your bifocals so you see what I’m seeing
actually walking around in a store will open your eyes to the truth. also, go by what stuff brings second hand, used cars and trucks are starting to drop. there is a dodge with a cummins engine in it that is actually priced well locally i might even consider, a couple years back i couldn't have. food is coming down. gas is what bothers me, the whole sale prices are not high but the stations keep it jacked up. annoying to say the least
Have you noticed that every time @cat52@ posts her numbers from her google search they are way higher than the look up that we get
It just goes to show you their are left look ups and right depending on the party you are registered under
Yeah, like fudging the employment numbers. I Google to make sure I'm right and not giving my impression. You all come here to tell me what the price of potatoes is around your potato farms. I go with what's around me too. The difference is that I back it up. Why did you complain so much about Biden's economy yet, now, you've got the same or worse economy and you are defending it?
I do shop everyday or so. Why do you think I'm complaining. Prices are steady or going up. Inflation is going up. Available jobs are at an all time low since Covid. And now we are getting to the effects of tariffs.
Cody8789 works for a food chain. What does that mean? I shop at several food chains. I also gas up my cat. My dry cleaning is not a national chain, but, I go to Texas Roadhouse and Carrabba's and Long Horn. I also go to Graziano's. Dollar Tree is no longer a dollar and going to Disney costs more than my mortgage and insurance combined. That is not Biden's fault. Six months after Biden was in office you said that he was in charge. Well, your fuckup has been in office for six months. What has he done for you and me? Am I living better? Am I saving more money? Is FEMA ready to help me during this hurricane season? Are you able to get medicine cheaper?
Come on, Dgraff, show me how wrong I am with or without glasses.
Every thing is going great in Pennsylvania prices are dropping steadily i don’t know what you’re seeing but you live in one of the most expensive states to live in the cost of living is through the roof down there
Yes, we are an expensive state or, more accurately, South Florida is. But, we make a hell of a lot more money than in old Penn. It's all relative. If you are happy so be it, but, even Repuckers are complaining, and loudly too, about the price of goods.
I just paid $11+ for a 12 pack of toilet paper. A year ago it was $6.50 or less. Eggs went down, but I just paid $9+ for 18 eggs.
All relative but still....
And what do you think about all the Chinese stuff that can't be replaced without paying through the nose?
why is it when i went to wally world this morning, there was rollback price tags on many grocery items? why is the bird feed i bought hasn't went up in the past 6 months? milk has held good and not went up.
when i say things are as good or better now, i go by what i see in the store myself with my own eyes.
you complain about prices and you eat in places that i can only dream of eating at, what the hell? you must be pretty well off to eat at carrabbas and texas roadhouse on a regular basis.
i eat at a place like that once a year maybe for my birthday or on the day marking a year longer after my accident when i am depressed as hell and need something good to cheer me up. .you are talking 30 buck plus meals for 1 at a place like that by the time you tip the waitress that lets your sweet tea go dry twice.
I don't go alone and me and my partner spend between $60 and $90 per outing. Can I do that every day? No. Usually it's two or three times/month. But, I'm not well off. I'm comfortable, but, like everyone else, I like to save money. I believe in the dictum that says you can't take it with you. If I'm able I try to give myself some pleasures.
i just carried my laundry detergent downstairs and sure enough, the 128 oz jug i bought last February is the exact same price as the jug i bought this morning. equaling out to 4.2 cents per ounce.
Yeah things are definitely coming down she’s just suffering from democrat paranoia every thing she complains about is all in her head she’s that stubborn she’s going to file taxes on her social security this year
Oh yeah I forgot the food prices well they don’t bother me to much if I don’t have the money for food I just grab a gun off my wall and go to the top of my mountain and shoot me some thing to eat squirrels are plentiful and rabbits deer 🦌 walk through my yard at night I have black bears in the area so I won’t starve
the 1 time i ate a piece of bear meat, my mother had no friggin idea how to cook it and that was the awfullest shit i have ever eat in my life.
i will admit, much as annas will be in disbelief, i aint much on killin things and guttin them and skinnin them,. i would probably eat alot of corn and beans and shit.
There is an art to cooking bear meat and you have to beat the meat with a braising hammer to soften it up
Never let it be said that i don’t beat my meat
I feel sorry for you after all the corruption all the government waist all the misuse of power and you still side with the democrats then i feel so sorry for you i would love to see your whole house of cards come crashing down
Obama in jail
The Clinton’s in jail
The Biden’s all in jail
Bill gates in jail
Oprah in jail
Kamala Harris in jail
Whoopi Goldberg in jail
And a whole bunch more that I’m forgetting
IRS agents go after people who BREAK THE LAW. They are literally tax-police.
They will only 'invade a man’s property' if he cheats on his taxes.
That's not Biden breaking the law, that's him upholding the law.
If there is no one making sure people pay their taxes, no one will.
And then your country goes bankrupt. It's already pretty close to it.
You probably are a tax cheat, but that's you breaking the law, not Biden.
Throwing Biden in jail, so they don't go after you? Are you fucking crazy?
If you think that Trump will let you scam taxes, you're really dumb.
He only lets the wealthy do that, NOT YOU. He needs YOU to pay MORE.
What do you think tariffs are? TAXES! ON YOU!
What about Oprah? She's at best a centrist. What did she do?
And Whoopi Goldberg? She's damn right-wing and ignorant as fuck.
Did you just thrown in some black women, for good measure?
Even if the government only pays for the military and the police,
that money still needs to come from somewhere.
And then who will pay for everything else? People!
It's either taxes, or you will need to pay for everything you want to use.
Want to drive this road? $5 please! Want to cross this bridge? $10 please.
That's much more expensive, because it's incredibly inefficient.
That would completely destroy the US, the opposite of MAGA.
Are you really this brainwashed or just acting like it?
personally knowing a gun toting irs agent about 10 years ago for a short time, you are naive. they are not just going after the guilty. they intimidate anyone that they want to. i just read yesterday that just using a certain suv as a company-personal vehicle can trigger a audit because of it's literal physical weight. not value,weight. why? how lame is that? loop holes they can jump thru to harrass people
If you don't want the government to get it from the billionaires,
they come get it from the average American and the poor.
It was your choice to have them do the latter.
They also don't need that many IRS agents, to go after normal Americans,
because you don't have an army of lawyers hiding your money
and defending you, when you break the law.
By letting Trump fire IRS agents, you are securing yourself as the targets.
Now the wealthy can cheat even more, while you get punished for a mistake.
Did DOGE find even one big wealthy tax-cheat?
No, they canceled grandma's social security.
If you don't learn from that, you never will.
Anything to say about dgraff wanting to imprison everyone you dislike?
Those IRS agents were Biden’s personal army and were hired to do nothing else but go after trump I hope everyone of them run out of unemployment and have to live in a refrigerator box under a bridge
That's how Trump operates, Biden sent gutless cowards like Merrick Garland.
There was no need for extra IRS agents to go after Trump.
Trump is not that smart. They had all the evidence that they needed.
Because he had the supreme court give the president immunity
and you lot were stupid enough to make him president again.
Biden is indeed not a criminal. Republicans tried to manufacture evidence against him, but were proven to be liars.
None of the legal cases were won by Trump. His defense didn't even have any response to all the evidence against Trump. They're strategy was obstruction and delay, combined with reasoning that Trump had the right to do what he did, instead of rejecting that he did it. Trump would have certainly lost all his cases and would have been found guilty of all or most charges, because he was NOT allowed to do what he did. Unfortunately, he was effective in his delay strategy, because he became president before verdict was achieved. His legal cases were either dropped or paused until he's president no longer. The biggest crime Trump has been accused of is criminal conspiracy to undermine American democracy.
Specifically, Trump was charged with the crimes:
- Conspiracy to defraud the United States (18 U.S.C. § 371)
Max: 5 years in prison and fines.
- Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding (18 U.S.C. § 1512(k))
Max: 20 years in prison.
- Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding (18 U.S.C. § 1512(c))
Max: 20 years in prison.
- Conspiracy against rights (18 U.S.C. § 241)
Max: 10 years, but up to life or death penalty if the conspiracy involves kidnapping, sexual abuse, or death (not alleged in Trump’s case).
Trump was also charged with:
Willful retention of national defense information (Violations of the Espionage Act)
- Charged with 31 counts, each related to keeping a separate classified document marked “SECRET” or “TOP SECRET” at Mar‑a‑Lago without authorization.
These documents included materials on U.S. nuclear weapons, military capabilities, vulnerabilities, and foreign intelligence reports—posing significant national security risks.
Each count carries up to 10 years in prison (though there are no mandatory minimums).
Since there were several TOP SECRET documents still unaccounted for, Trump was still under investigation. He is not telling what he did with these documents. If they would find out that he sold them or gave them to a hostile but not wartime adversary (e.g., Russia, China in peacetime), that would probably be charged as espionage.
Each count carries up to 10 years in prison.
The whole world saw Trump lie about those documents, over and over, until he admitted to have them, so don't try any stupid make believe that he's not GUILTY AS FUCK!
Your opinion means nothing to me
When you move to the United States 🇺🇸 and do it legally or ice will send you right back then you have your say until then keep your opinions to yourself
Dgraff, as usual, you have to reach into the past to come up with any argument. Who gives a f__k if all those people (who have not been prosecuted for any crimes or found guilty of any) get incarcerated? On the other hand, we have a CONVICTED FELON serving as our President right now.
You have the balls (and I’m using this as a figure of speech, not a statement of fact) to still think this Clown has your interest at heart? Sad.
dummy, if Trump fails, so does America,so for him to succeed the country has to as well. so his motives indirectly help America if he has any other motives besides helping the country. at his age, he could very well have give up and sat on the porch like you have admitted to choosing to do and lived well the rest of his life. but no,he puts himself out there to stand up for America,and you can't see the trees for the forest.
If Trump fails, America keeps its democracy.
Trump is an incredible narcissist, he only cares about himself.
The only reason he became president again is to save himself from prison.
The whole world saw him be a traitor and break the law about 100 times.
In any real democracy, he would have been behind bars the next day.
i think the rest of you are the fools. you can't understand how undermining our energy sector with regulations and so much other crap the dems do to us will bring us down
Your energy sector is running on obsolete technology that's killing humanity,
but the buffoon keeps investing in that old tech, while not investing in new tech.
You're destroying your competitiveness with the rest of the world.
In how many ways do you want to fuck over your own country?
It's not America First, it's America last.
Trump might be Israel First, or Russia First, but not America First.
Look at his tariffs; the EU and the US now have a 15% tax on trade.
The US also has tariffs with all other countries in the world.
The EU doesn't have tariffs with the rest of the world.
We can still trade with EVERYONE ELSE, tax-free.
How do you think that will turn out? Good for the US?
frankly, there is not much if anything that comes from europe that we can't make or do without here in the US so i don't care.
obsolete tech for energy? a electron can flow thru a copper wire now same as it did a 100 years ago. coal can heat water to make steam to turn a turbine to generate electricity or it ,or the water can spin a water wheel. same as a 100 years ago.
this new tech is expensive and not recyclable without alot of expanse, so it cost more on both ends.by the time a solar panel pays for it's self, it has lost alot of it's capacity.
The new tech is much cheaper and it doesn't kill everyone.
Solar and wind are already much cheaper than fossil fuels,
even while fossil fuels are heavily subsidized.
You keep forgetting the cost of the damage. The climate is putting higher costs on your country every single year. You can cancel FEMA, but that means that people just end up homeless for longer. That's a massive burden on your economy.
The risk isn't just climate change, it's also old-fashioned pollution.
There are areas around your fossil fuel extraction plants, where citizens have a 200x higher risk of getting cancer, than in the safest areas of your country.
That's a massive burden on your economy.
Maybe you could make everything that we can, but if that
would have been better, you would have already done it.
It's what we buy from you, that you should worry about.
We can also make everything you make, in many cases better.
Your economy will come to a screaming halt, if we do that.
If you keep making things on coal energy, we might stop buying those.
Your citizens are poorer every day. They don't spend enough to keep your economy alive. You only think about the supply side, the job creators, but do you even understand the demand side of the economy?
People actually need to buy your overpriced crap.
well, we have starving people here in the US, so what food you don't buy, our citizens can eat. weapons you don't buy, can go in our stock piles.
cars you won't buy because you regulate everyone to roller-skates, that number was not relevant to the big picture.
cotton for your clothes, we will just use it here if you don't buy it. sure there will be growing pains.
but we would survive just fine
Do you have starving people in the US? Now that Trump is in office?
Americans are not starving because of a lack of food,
but because of a lack of MONEY.
"Weapons you don't buy, can go in our stock piles"
Have you never heard of increasing or decreasing production output?
The reason we don't buy American cars is not regulation,
but because they are too heavy, too big and guzzle fuel.
They don't fit in our hundreds of years old cities.
If you made cars that we would want to buy, we would.
Well, maybe not if they're 15% more expensive than European
and Asian cars.
The reason we do not buy American beef IS because of regulation,
but also because we can make beef that does comply with regulation CHEAPER.
America became the #1 economy in the world, because you produced stuff that other countries wanted to buy. Even though you outsourced a lot of your production to China, you still earned most of the profits. That is changing, because your innovation strength is dwindling, while China's innovation strength is skyrocketing. They don't need you anymore.
Your economy is heavily dependent on domestic consumption, so your economy would be able to survive on your own production and consumption. The problem is that everything is owned by billionaires.
They will leave you, when you're not making them enough money.
You have sacrificed a lot for them to become this wealthy, but that didn't result in any loyalty towards YOU. They screw you for a dollar.
At least Biden tried to invest in education, science and US manufacturing, but Trump thinks he can solve it with tariffs, while he's destroying education and science. He thinks US manufacturing will come back without government investments. That's stupid, you cannot win from China which is investing trillions. Your billionaires are not going to invest in your country, just because of nationalism. They only invest to make more profits for themselves. If their money makes a better return on investment in Mexico, Canada, China or Europe, they'll invest there. If you don't provide them with smart people, who can invent their intellectual property, they'll leave the US for that too.
You WON'T survive just fine. The term MAGA worked, because you know the US is in trouble. Your empire is failing, and Trump is accelerating it.
He's too dumb to understand the causes, and you are following him blind towards utter destruction. Why? Because you like his ignorance and hatred.
That, Pharr, is a huge problem for our farmers and our manufacturing. Selling less because we can't consume the excess doesn't pay for the established bills like loans, payroll, structural costs or storage. Utilities the same.
biden was found to be unfit for trial for his crimes, but yet he pardoned people. duh, any person with common sense should be able to look at that and see a problem,
Trump wasn't declared unfit for trial. big difference.you know your ilk keeps reminding us he is a felon. had he not been fit for trial he could not wear that. duh
But he was and now, no matter what he's a convicted felon. Not being fit for trial is not the same as being found guilty. Even if Biden was found fit for trial, a jury has to find him guilty before he would be a convicted felon. Oh, wait, isn't that what happened to Donny Boy? The Clown?
What crimes? Still talking about the alleged corruption case with Hunter?
Every accusation that Republicans threw at him vaporized.
His accusers were caught fabricating evidence and using a perjurious witness.
When was Biden found to be unfit to stand trial?
Are you talking about Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report (February 2024)
on Biden’s handling of classified documents, which declined to prosecute him, noting Biden’s memory lapses. That report did not declare Biden legally unfit
to stand trial. The transcripts of the interviews showed Robert Hur to be misrepresenting Biden's mental state.
There was no legal standing to accuse Biden of any criminal wrongdoing.
Biden did mishandle classified documents. After leaving the vice presidency, he retained and disclosed some classified materials related to Afghanistan and other topics. These were found at his home and former office. However, Hur concluded there was insufficient evidence to prove criminal intent — a necessary element for prosecution under U.S. law (e.g., willful retention under 18 U.S.C. § 793).
That is completely different for Trump. INTENT was the least of it.
Key Alleged Crimes:
- Willful Retention of National Defense Information
Keeping dozens of classified documents after leaving the presidency, in violation of the Espionage Act (18 U.S.C. § 793(e)).
- Conspiracy to Obstruct Justice
Working with aides to conceal documents from federal investigators and the grand jury (18 U.S.C. § 1512(k)).
- Obstruction of Justice / Withholding Documents
Direct acts to obstruct the investigation, such as moving boxes and providing false assurances (18 U.S.C. §§ 1512(b), 1512(c)).
- Concealing or Hiding a Document
Knowingly hiding records to prevent them from being found in an official investigation (18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)).
- False Statements and Representations
Causing lawyers to certify falsely that all classified materials were returned (18 U.S.C. § 1001).
Many German people were proud to be German too, in 1938.
The ones who survive until 1970, not so much.
The large majority of the German people now consider their history very shameful.
su-re, american industrialists helped financially bring hitler to power.Russia signed a pact with him, enabling him to bring war. The vatican praised hitler and at the same time winston chrchil praised a leader of an adolf hitler. The knew the intensions of the 3rd reich after reading mein Kemph, What about the vatican giving hitler his first prestige..It all worked for global ddominance until hitler bit off what he could not chew,, invasion of stallingrad. He knew the war was lost following but he killed more.. Germany's guild is the worlds guilt. Here in 2025 I'm proud to be an american.. No more giving the to number 1 sponser to terrorism, no more hamas, R7ussia is stubborn but eventually will go broke.During the war The german people protected jews,, more than any other country in the world
My principle is to be critical of my country and my government, at all time.
They don't have to represent my opinions, because we live in a democracy,
but whatever opinions they do represent, I could only be 'proud' of them
if they pass a whole number of moral standards.
Inciting hatred towards groups of people is an immediate FAIL.
Yes, many Germans did not support Hitler making the Jews the scapegoat and gaining power from inciting hatred. If they were caught helping Jews, what happened to them?
Trump has gained power by inciting hatred against LGTBQ+ people and immigrants.
If you're proud because of the hatred against LGTBQ+, you're just a bigot, and we cannot have a discussion about that.
I agree that illegal immigrants in a country are a problem, but HATE IS NEVER OK.
Your country could solve that problem without the hatred.
What is so special about the specific group of Jews, that they should be protected,
no matter what they do? They suffered from Hitler's evil, hatred and prosecution,
but that's no justification for them doing a genocide of themselves.
They have no more right to that piece of land than the Palestinian people.
Correct, the Soviet Union (USSR) under Stalin and Nazi Germany under Hitler,
signed a non-aggression pact, known as the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact (August 1939).
Did you know about the Munich Agreement? On 30 September 1938, Britain (Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain) and France agreed to allow Nazi Germany to annex the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia, in an attempt to avoid war (a policy known as appeasement). Hitler, Mussolini, Chamberlain, and Daladier signed it.
Were they then just as bad as Hitler?
The world is indeed, for big a part, complicit with the evil of WWII,
but it was Hitler who used hatred against a group of people, to rise to power.
Rising to power, by using hatred towards people, is what Trump is doing.
You might agree with some things that he's doing, but being PROUD!?!
I have no enemies sir. I validate your opinions not necessarily in agreement but I do the best I can to be objective with the foundation of justice and truth with transparency..
I was a democrat until 2012. What changed my mind was the lack of transparency, the depletion of our economy especially after the 9/11 tragity. Then when they were supporting Iran, the number 1 sponsor of terrorism in the world who was responsible funding 9/11 I realized I made a mistake. JFK was a democrat who I considered the 4 best of all time once he was murdered it didn't matter who won the presidency because they worked for the globalist network.
Trump on his first primary was the key to me switching. Close the border, convert education local which is key, and foreign policy namely GDP % contributions towards NATO to be level. Shrink government to where they are responsible for maintaining national sovereignty and defenses. The governments needs to be employed by the people, not by abuse of power.
But the key point was the leveling business model making tariffs level playing field. Why should americans pay for free healthcare in europe? Why should we pay for free education when the citizens here can't even afford going to college? Why open the borders with leeches getting free healthcare, education with spending allowances while our blue city streets are flooded with poverty?
There are still deep state operatives in the repubclican party and it is divided with smoke screens. That is why the media and democrats with some republicans hate him so much because he sought to change the business model of politics..
The only way democracy can work is to use the desire creating a more perfect union becoming educated through critical reasoning. The country must be educated. Right now america is 32nd in the world even though they spend more money on education than anyone. This is corruption. Dumbing america, propaganda and forced poverty has taken its toll.
In a small town west of Cincinnati Ohio.
The detaining of hundreds of people on immigration charges earns the jail more than $24,000 a day or $720,000 a month in fees paid by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) – on top of $36 an hour in transportation fees the jail charges Ice.
So much for “wanting to do something about the illegal”. --------------------------------------- added after 2 minutes
One study suggests that in 2016, the federal government spent approximately $974 million on emergency and lifesaving services for undocumented immigrants through Medicaid, representing a small fraction (0.2%) of total Medicaid expenditures.
Other estimates suggest a higher cost, with one organization reporting a figure of around $7 billion annually for the uninsured undocumented population in 2019.
so why not some lower paid folks earn some money from the crisis? and once they are deported and the border is fixed, the spending on them is over
“Hospitals are supposed to provide emergency care to all patients who come in the door, regardless of their ability to pay or their immigration status. The requirement is in line with the Hippocratic Oath and enshrined in federal law, specifically the 1986 Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA).”
This has been around for almost 40 years. Lots of Repuckers have been in charge with no changes.
it is my understanding that the care is limited in cases like that to what is necessary . i do think it would be a good idea for ice to be at most hospitals to pick the illegals up as they leave for deportation. would save chasing them around
I will not live on top of each other if my neighbors are less than 500 feet next to me that’s to damn close but I figured out that if I buy all the land around me i don’t have to worry about neighbors
No I already have an old slut from Florida living down the street from me she gets drunk and parades around in her pink Biden hat i swear if I ever get a hold of that hat I will throw it in my wood chipper then she will have pink Biden pieces
Why do you think that is even related to this?
You don't need social housing, you can afford to buy.
So do I, but I still think people who are not as lucky,
deserve to live in a decent home as well.
What's wrong with that, is that it's turning people into garbage.
They are a useless burden to society. It's your fault for creating them.
I'm not a lefty/socialist out of compassion alone, but because it's better for ALL OF US.
It maximizes people's potential, so they contribute to society.
Bums in cardboard boxes don't contribute anything. Well, maybe diseases.
Oh sure, they intentionally went to live in an apartment where the landlord tripled their rent, so they could go bankrupt and live in a nice box, or they intentionally had an accident, so their medical bills bankrupted them, so they could live in a nice box, or they intentionally picked a demon wife, who divorced them, took all their money,
so they could live in a nice box.
whats wrong with a person taking a job and making their own way in life?
whats wrong with putting down the needle or the bottle and going to work?
whats wrong with not having kids or pets if you can't feed them>?
whats wrong with people that they think the rest of us owe people that choose to be worthless bums a damn thing?
There is nothing wrong with any of those actions.
What's wrong is your 'thinking' that those problems apply to all bums.
Your system is very good at crushing people, who do everything right.
There are many people who have no fault at all for getting crushed.
People's lives can also get crushed to rubble, AFTER having kids or pets.
Losing ones job or losing ones health is a big risk of that. No fault of them.
We should have a system who prevents occurrences like that crushing people.
The US didn't have that already, but your political side made it even worse.
There is nothing wrong with people who think we owe each other,
there is something wrong with people who think everyone is on their own.
It isn't logical and it isn't consistent with any religion.
In any case, the majority of people don't agree with you, and they will fight back.
The worse it gets before they succeed at it, the harder your side will fall.
herded them all into a controlled environment with no reason to want to do better and move out into housing paid for by their own money. what a concept.
taking away all motivation to improve 1's self by making sure the folks know they will not suffer for being lazy and non productive.
tax the rich to pay for the lazy, the rich will just leave and your system would not support it's self.
edit, i got to thinking, damn, i must be poor, i don't have access to a swimming pool.
so can i live in this cheap government housing since i can't afford a pool? wait, i can get a plastic kiddy pool from walmart so i guess i don't qualify.
what would motivate people to do better for themselves if they are living cheap off the governments taxing the "wealthy" ?
and where is the line between wealthy and living in this cheap housing? what is to stop bill gates from putting his estate into a trust and moving in?
do you have a pool cat? maybe you could move into that fancy place built on the tax payers dime?
if you don't have a pool,you are poor according to the socialist
well i am glad he is gone as president for sure, but i would not wish his cancer on anyone. that goes a tad past my ways of thinking.
what we as a country need to be looking at is who do we put in for 2028? we need to continue the progress we are making as Rome was not built in a day and our country was not torn apart over night. it takes time,aka years, to fix the fucks up of obama-biden, just the border crisis alone will affect us for decades as we don't know how many terrorist swam over and spoke some spanish to get a free ride to wherever
Actually, I do. It's an inground pool, but it has nothing to do with the fact that the Biden administration was smood and prosperous while this Clown's first 6 months has been disaster after disaster. High prices, suits and counter suites, millions of tax dollars spent on lawyers, trade wars with trading partners and war mongering.
how could capitolist solve the housing crisis?
well first, they would reduce the stupid regulations that cause houses to be so expensive.
We can't use what are referred to as tiny homes in my county, zoning won't allow it. why? because the democrat led county would rather bring in sub divisions with 400,000 dollar plus homes into the area and tax them.
another thing, the bullshit laws preventing you from building your own home on your own property should be abolished. you can't even cut lumber from trees on your own land to use in your home. your home,not the countys home that taxes it.
developers push down acres of trees and burn them to make way for new houses and then import lumber to build them. the very trees they push down and burn could be made into lumber and used on the homes being built. it was done that way years ago.
but not any more. why? because dems can't collect sales tax from the lumber.
i could go on, and may add some more later. but i have a feeling common sense,back to basics solutions are not what you are looking for.
i don't use chat gpt, i would use grok, and besides, i don't need a confirmation, i am only asking and trying to get you to understand your liberal ideas are not the only 1's that might work. liberals typically will not respect a idea if it comes from someone they don't like
I think you've tried, but you couldn't even make Grok confirm your ideas.
I'm NOT supporting "liberal ideas", related to housing.
"Liberal" in that sense mean exactly what you want. Liberalization of housing means: privatization and deregulation. That's exactly what our government did and which resulted in skyrocketing rent and house prices.
I'm not a liberal, I'm a socialist, I support public ownership.
That's the opposite of privatization and deregulation.
First get your terminology straight, before you discuss economic models for housing.
Right wing policies, (neo)liberal policies, privatization and deregulation,
have NEVER on any significant scale resulted in lower living costs for the public.
However, left-wing (not liberal) policies have been proven to work many times.
When governments increase public ownership, regulation, and long-term investment in housing, affordability, quality, and access tend to improve, especially for lower- and middle-income households. This has been tried and done large scale many times, all over the world, to great success.
There is overwhelming evidence that it worked in Vienna, Austria, Sweden, Singapore and The Netherlands, until the 1990s. I have lived the successes and I have seen the results of privatization and deregulation all around me.
Houses are not so expensive because of stupid regulations, houses are so expensive because it's one of the simplest way for rich people to exploit poor people, when a government privatizes and deregulates housing.
I don't THINK that my ideas the only 1's that might work.
There is just a FUCK-TON of EVIDENCE that your ideas DON'T work and mine DO.
Civilization has been building houses for a while now. Right?
All the ideas have been tried and tested, all over the world.
They just keep telling you that you need deregulation, because it makes a small group of wealthy people even more wealthy, over the backs of everyone else.
You just listen to the people who get paid to LIE FOR THEM.
there is government housing all around.
you can identify it quickly if the buildings are more than a couple years old because there is trash everywhere, they are covered in graffiti ,with junk cars in the parking lot and a mobile police tower nearby.
because the people that use that housing don't work,won't work and do not take any pride in what is provided,don't appreciate it nor do they care how others feel about the way they treat what is provided for them.
if you were given a home, how would you treat it? more than likely you would keep it clean and so forth,why can't everyone?
i worked with a black man for a while and sometimes we would go into poverished areas of town while working and i finally ask him 1 day," why is all this trash laying around?" he said, "because they are poor". i pointed to a plastic grocery bag laying near a park bench and ask him how money it would cost to pick up that bag,put some loose garbage in it and place it into a city provided trash can. he suddenly couldn't answer that question. people are quick to blame their lack of funds on all kinds of issues. and for some reason folks like you tend to make it taboo to ask them why funds are relevant to taking pride in what you do have and taking care of it.
You base your opinion only on what you know from the US.
If you don't want to inform yourself about what the rest of the world does,
your worldview on this is totally skewed.
They are doing lots of things much better than you.
You could actually learn a lot, from the successes of others.
But, you would rather believe that you're the best at everything.
It's NOT "all about supply".
It's a thing that CAN work, if you don't want to change the system itself,
but it's a policy of accepting defeat to capitalism.
Seriously, do you expect a redneck American to have an idea about the world? He doesn't give a shit. His world is his Oklahoma, say, village, and anything beyond that is communist regime.
And he goes to church too.
And brings guns, just in case a foreign guy walks in.
damn skippy, i mind my countries business, you mind yours. and if you kept your crazys and their brain washing in the middle east, we wouldn't need to carry guns to church.
You carry guns to church to shoot your crazy compatriots. Only American idiots go to your crazy churches. Only American shitheads shoot other Americans. In your churches. In your schools. You're a primitive society dude.
yea, sure,if you think so, at least we are not longer under your countrys thumb bowing to a king , we fought our way out from under that back in the 1770s much to your dismay.hheeheeheeeee.
Violent crime, including offenses like assault, robbery, and homicide, has seen an increase in recent years. In 2022-23, police recorded over 2.1 million incidents of violent crime,
In England and Wales, there were approximately 6.59 million crimes recorded by the police in 2024/25, a slight decrease from the previous year. However, this is still one of the highest figures in the past two decades.
now that does not sound civilized. so clean up your own back yard you bunch of wankers!!!
If the king doesn't have any power, I'm OK with monarchy.
They are a very expensive mascot, but people seem to like it.
It gives a country some status. Trump was very happy to stay in our palace.
He's our top diplomat. Not as smart, but he gets the job done.
I think religion is more stupid. At least my king and queen are real.
The media that right-wingers consume has a clear intent to keep their viewers ignorant about anything happening outside of the US, unless it's negative.
It's propaganda! They can't have citizens knowing how their politics is failing them.
It's the same in Russia, North Korea, Turkey, India and a whole lot of other countries with authoritarian leaders. Every single wannabe dictator starts with taking control of the media and the judiciary.
I wouldn't say that all churches have this effect on people, but I would be very surprised if phart goes to one of the more liberal churches.
Their news is 24/7 fear porn and anger incitement. The result is people who prefer their personal idea of safety, rather than an actual safer society.
i heard a while back from the neighbor that his wife gave birth to a baby girl and it is so ugly they are going to leave it with a baby sitter and borrow a baby girl from another neighbor to take the church on sundays!!
were the jobs shed or just lost because of biden policy's letting the jobs go over seas or could it have been over regulation put company's out of business and folks out of work>?
and besides, this is a side effect of the future. Automation. the good riddance of workers demanding much more than they are worth for mundane, simple repetive task that can be done by a machine
Estimates of job losses due to automation and AI vary, but some projections suggest millions of jobs could be impacted. A McKinsey & Company study suggests that between 400 and 800 million individuals globally might need to find new jobs due to automation by 2030. Goldman Sachs predicts that 300 million full-time jobs could be replaced by AI globally. While some jobs will be lost, others will be created, but the transition may require significant reskilling and adaptation.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Manufacturing:
20 million manufacturing jobs could be replaced by automation by 2030, according to PatentPC.
Global Impact:
The World Economic Forum projects that 85 million jobs could be lost due to AI and automation by 2025, but 97 million new jobs will also be created.
US Impact:
Up to 73 million US jobs are potentially at risk of being lost to automation in the next five years, according to a study cited by Edoxi.
Specific Sectors:
McKinsey predicts that up to 375 million workers globally may need to change occupations by 2030 due to automation.
AI's Role:
While some job losses are attributed to robots and other automation technologies, AI is also playing a role in job displacement, particularly in roles involving routine tasks.
Adaptation is Key:
Many sources emphasize the need for workers to adapt to the changing job market by acquiring new skills and embracing lifelong learning.
i hope the day comes when people regret ever asking for so much money, they think they can't make it now, wait until most jobs are done by automation or are done by ai. then they will really understand what it means to not be able to make it.
the next really great depression will be a permanent 1. ai and automation will take care of everything from trash collection to medical procedures. no need to pay workers comp for more than 2 or 3 people to operate and manage the company, it will run it's self.
What policy's did Biden pass, that resulted in the jobs go over seas? Please list them.
Link your 'policies' to Biden, because you offer NO evidence that he has anything to do with what you are listing.
Why do you blame Biden for AI?
"In his first days back in office on January 23, 2025, President Trump revoked Biden’s AI regulations and signed Executive Order 14179, effectively deregulating federal oversight of AI"
🚨 Concerns & Criticisms
- Labor and consumer advocates warn that removing oversight puts worker rights and safety at risk .
- Meta’s Yann LeCun labeled the rollback a “witch hunt in academia”, fearing it drives researchers overseas.
- Federal AI body (AISI) cuts tied to the rollback could gut safety and equity efforts.
- Some analysts caution that spotty federal policy may lead to patchwork state laws, confusion, and compliance burdens.
"There’s no evidence that President Biden has signed any legislation that encourages U.S. job offshoring. In fact, his proposals and enacted policies have specifically targeted the opposite"
"Here are several major Biden-era policies that have directly helped bring back jobs to the U.S.:
🏗️ Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) – Nov 2021
$550 billion in new spending on roads, bridges, broadband, EV charging, clean water, transit, ports, etc.
Funded over 60,000 projects, driving construction and forestry-related employment. Analysts found IIJA, CHIPS, and IRA together spurred factory and utility job growth across the country.
💡 CHIPS and Science Act – Aug 2022
Carved out $52 billion in grants and tax credits for U.S. semiconductor manufacturing.
Since passage:
$450 billion committed to chip and electronics manufacturing
17 new fabs, dozens of expansions across 21 states
Expected to create 125,000+ construction and manufacturing jobs, with 200+ projects already launched and 135,800 jobs projected.
🌿 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) – Aug 2022
The largest investment in clean energy in U.S. history.
Over $300 billion in private clean-energy investments announced so far; over 330,000 clean-energy jobs created; projected up to 1.5 million additional jobs over the next decade.
🇺🇸 American Rescue Plan & XR Programs
The $1.9 trillion COVID relief law helped jump-start the economy post-pandemic, accelerating the recovery.
Strengthened “Buy American” rules (raising domestic content threshold to 60–75%), directing $120 billion in federal procurement to U.S.-made goods.
🛡️ Executive Orders & Defense Production Act (DPA)
Signed executive orders boosting U.S. manufacturing (“Made in America”) to incentivize reshoring and facility revitalization.
Invoked the DPA (June 2022) to accelerate domestic clean-energy tech production (solar panels, heat pumps, grid components), leading to new manufacturing jobs in underserved communities.
📊 Impact & Job Trends
The U.S. economy added 16.6 million jobs from Biden’s inauguration through early 2025—it’s the only presidency with monthly job creation throughout its term so far.
367,000 manufacturing jobs added since January 2021—the fastest manufacturing-sector growth in nearly 30 years.
Manufacturing employment climbed to its highest level in ~15 years, with nearly 789,000 factory jobs added since Biden took office."
I gave Admin a heads-up yesterday. I don't know if he did something, but, the member is gone. FYI, maybe he hadn't done anything more than choose a name, but, you know it wasn't appropriate.
Not good enough. We say and do a lot of stuff on this site. Some good. some bad, but we never cross the line. If we like and want to protect the site, we MUST step up.
If we are lead by cats example then we are law less on this site like the Wild West because she has broken every rule on this site at one time or another
Alright, Dgraff, I'll call you on that. I'm betting you are farting out of your mouth, but, let's see. I do reserve the right to defend myself and, before you go on, let me remind you that there very few site rules. I'm waiting but I know what's coming.
"I'm not going to waste my time doing that because......bla, bla, bla".
Shades of Lyx bashing.
Oh, one more thing. Regardless of the supposedly number of times I BROKE A RULE, what does it say about you that you won't react to the above?
Let’s go way back when you first appeared on this site you posted internet pictures and were reviewed by the abuse panel for deletion and Bella reached out to you to remove the internet pictures didn’t think i would remember did you I was part of that abuse panel back then thank goodness your friend Bella saved you huh --------------------------------------- added after 84 seconds
It’s true. I did post photoshopped internet pics. Why did I do it? I don’t know. Probably because I was not sure of my self or my pics. Bella! reached out, as she always does, and, I, in my adversarial way, did not take it well. No, more than that. I didn’t take her well.
And, do I owe her one? If having to endure the constant reminder from her and you that I should genuflect every time I see her pic, then, yes, I guess I owe her one.
So, Pussy Dgraff, what else? And, if you remember what you’ve just brought up, then you should also remember that I deleted every pic in mt gallery except one. From that moment, ‘my pics have been as honest as anyone else on the site.
Also, from that day on, I was a bitch with a capital B, knowing that, on this site, at least, people kiss you on the cheek while holding a hidden dagger behind their backs.
So, come on, Pussy, what else?
No. Like I’ve said, “I reserve the right to defend myself.”.
You know what? This? This is a waste of time where I could be doing something important. Bye, Daniel.
You know as long as you feel the need to “mention” me, I feel the need to respond. Here’s what I find offensive;
“And, do I owe her one? If having to endure the constant reminder from her and you that I should genuflect every time I see her pic, then, yes, I guess I owe her one.
So, Pussy Dgraff, what else? And, if you remember what you’ve just brought up, then you should also remember that I deleted every pic in mt gallery except one.”
Endure MY “constant reminder”!? Ha! I haven’t kept track of or counted the number of times, I’m sure there’s been 2 or 3, maybe more but it’s not like I make a post about do you know what TWOWARMTTS did back when? And when you use a big word why not make sure you use it properly. Genuflect? Bow every time you see my picture? Just a suggestion, don’t visit my page!
And as for you deleting all but one picture, that is the truth, HOWEVER that one picture was placing blame on me and big9inch21 * for the removal of all your gallery pictures. You were not owning any of this being “your fault” you were pointing blame on us.
In case a new or fresh eye is reading the post(s), because I ASKED admin to include a freeze vote option on voting, I would reach out to the member in question with a screenshot of the referral to show that it is legit and I pretty much write the same blurb; You/your profile has been referred to the Evaluation Panel for xxx . Please consider (I always use the word consider because it is your choice whether you want to comply OR NOT) removing xxx otherwise your profile is in jeopardy of being deleted. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.
2 or 3 of my 19 blacklisters have blacklisted me because I have reached out to them in that capacity.

Thank you. You know, I have always maintained that you guys can say anything/or call her anything and she laps it up. I’ve been a “one eyed bitch” because I reached out to her regarding the validity of her gallery and she’s never let it go.
Yes, I go down on one knee and cross myself. I'm not disputing your version of the story, but, honey, you've brought that up in everyone of my memberships. And, frankly, now, I believe you do so just to justify your "please, look, I'm such a nice person" attitude. We both know you are not.
This doesn't change anything. Dgraff is still a pussy and you are as obnoxious as always. Oh, yeah.
“you've brought that up in everyone of my memberships.”
IF I brought anything up it was because you had a different spin on things. You enjoy the challenge, search the Forum for just how many times the story was repeated and under what circumstance was it shared.
“And, frankly, now, I believe you do so just to justify your "please, look, I'm such a nice person" attitude. We both know you are not.”
I am confident about who I am and from my vantage point, you seem to be confused about a number of things. Oh yeah!
“ We say and do a lot of stuff on this site. Some good. some bad, but we never cross the line.”
I’ve been here 13 consecutive years and you’re right behind me with 12 years. I’ve not been booted have you? I seem to recall some stuff that happened with the ol’ “router caper”, do you remember that?
I sure do remember so many i can’t remember them all

Yeah, pretty much, it was humiliating.
Still, if he has to suck Trumps dick, to keep YOUR tax-dollars and weapons
going to Ukraine, I'm fine with that.
If our king has to whore out our queen to him, to get what we need, I'm fine with that.
Understand that you picked a president who can be easily persuaded with flattery
and personal gains, instead of him considering what's best for YOU. We will use that.
well i can't say i am happy about it, but he is the President,it is his sworn oath to protect America and it's people so he and or his team must have felt there was good reason. and he has given them every chance to drop the nuke idea and they didn't. and they are a threat to our allies, so you should be happy that Trump is protecting them as well.
i don't think folks like you understand the dangers of those people having a nuke. they want to die, they hate America, so they would use a nuke not caring how you or Anannas feels about it.
i am more concerned about terror cells here in the US striking now than iran having 9 of it's nuclear scientist killed at the same time and Trump taking out 3 sites.his strikes are usually very precise to reduce innocent people's lives being lost.
i read today that Netanyahu called macron on the phone asking for help. macron said hell no, i am not helping you bomb iran. Netanyahu said, " oh, i was just hoping you could teach them how to surrender!"
bad leadership allowed in alot of people that are part of sleeper cells that will be harming people here at home.
irans leadership is to crazy to have access to nukes and you know that well as anyone. death to America has been their motto for decades.
They have been causing trouble since the 1970 1978 to be exact or don’t you remember the gas ration

I can’t help but wonder how Joe Biden or Kamala Harris would have handled this situation probably with another foot locker containing another 100 million dollars and a message saying now calm down boys and the money is all yours
I do remember it, but, do you know why? In November 1979 Iranian revolutionaries seized the American embassy in Terбn because WE WERE THE HATED DEVILS THAT ESTABLISHED THE EXTREMELY CORRUPT AND OPPRESSIVE REGIME OF THE SHA OF IRAN. This was accomplished by THE CIA facilitating this.
They held hostages for a long time AND convinced OPEC to cut production of petroleum. This led to a shortage of gas and huge jumps in the price of gas. All well and good, or, bad for us, but, WE caused the hatred by involving ourselves in the politics of a sovereign nation. An involvement that changed the fabric of lives in Iran. If they had been able to do that to us we would have flattened Iran.
Now, since Reagan resolved the embassy hostage crisis, what have they done to us? Did they cause another 9/11? Did they openly attack us? Sure, I’m sure that, overtly, they looked for ways to hurt us. After all, we embargoed their LEGAL money held by American banks. Wouldn’t we have done the same?
You, Dgraff, are under a false impression. First, Iran is a country with over 99 million people and, they may suffer from an all out war with us, but, they are fanatics. They will exact a heavy price in lives and costs. They are also very friendly with several other countries that want to bury us. North Korea has nuclear weapons. China has nuclear weapons. Russia has nuclear weapons. They can also strangle the world’s supply of oil. And for what?
I’ll tell you why. It’s because that Clown King wannabe we have leading our nation knows he’s losing it and needed something grand to capture traction. He doesn’t care how many lives, ours, and, yes, theirs, he ends or ruins.
And, you Sir, once again showed your CLEAR, CONCISE, understanding of the situation. God help us.
why is it you want to send arms and money to ukraine to be shot up a wild hogs ass but yet, the bully of the middle east is just fine left alone to keep everyone scared to death all the time>? you are the 1 that does not understand. there will never be peace in the middle east, the culture there is a war mongering, fear mongering, money hungry 1 that will never cease to exist.
You are wrong. I do understand that the Middle East will never stop having wars. That doesn't mean I want us to be part of it.
As far as the Ukraine is concerned, I don't like bullies. Russia, a part of Europe, invaded another European country. That's wrong, but, worse, I don't want American kids losing their lives in another European world war. If you can't understand that, so be it.
i understand and agree i want the death of our young people to stop,all death to stop for that matter. but if you don't like bullies, then why are you supporting iran?they pay people to kill in israel during a october shindig and you don't consider that bullying?
Don't put words in my mouh. I'm not supporting Iran. I don't care if they and Israel wipe themselves off the face of the earth. What I don't want is for us to be involved in another senseless war in a far away country where we don't belong. Would you like me to translate into German, French or Spanish? Croatian maybe? Maybe you'll understand the words I've typed.
well israel is our ally, iran is not.
israel did not have any bunker busters or planes to haul them. we helped out a ally and eliminated a threat to us in the process. what part of that do you need translated?
I will believe that when I see it for myself Russia was one of the many countries that agreed with trump’s decision to take out Iran's nuclear program 81 percent of republicans and Democrats and many other countries agree that Iran has no business having nuclear weapons --------------------------------------- added after 13 hours
Watched the news again this morning and not one word about Putin backing Iran just more propaganda from our Jane Fonda of the site
Way to go @cat 52@
yea i googled it as i don't think russia wants iran having nukes.
Based on recent reports,
Russia does not support Iran developing nuclear weapons.
Here's why and what Russia's stance entails:
Concerns about a nuclear arms race: Moscow fears that Iran developing an atomic bomb would trigger a nuclear arms race across the Middle East.
Emphasis on peaceful nuclear development: Russia has reiterated its backing for Iran's right to peaceful nuclear development.
Role in nuclear negotiations: Russia was involved in the 2015 Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which aimed to limit Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.
Willingness to remove enriched uranium: Russia has stated it is ready to remove highly enriched uranium from Iran and convert it into civilian reactor fuel as a potential way to calm the crisis.
Condemnation of strikes on Iran: Russia has condemned recent US strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, viewing them as unprovoked aggression.
Limited concrete support: Despite its strategic partnership with Iran, Russia has offered limited concrete support following recent strikes, prioritizing its own interests like avoiding escalation and maintaining ties with other global powers.
I bet you would think it was our business if Iran was pointing a nuclear weapon our way
The time to stop it is now not after the nuclear war head is pointing at us
cat, if the dr said you had lung cancer and a surgery and some chemo would give a 80% recovery rate, would you wait until it was stage 4 and then tell him to take it out?

hey cat52! there is a bright side to Trump bombing iran, he opened up a bunch of jobs for these America hating college grads we have here in the states.

Hey, FUCK, what did I do to you for you to send me an inappropriate gift and then blacklist me? You are a coward and I don't forget. You see this post? Ask around what happens when I get mad.

i couldn't find the post that skittles was on explaining how shitty california has become so i just put this here.
a once great state has gone to hell in a hand basket.
lex luthor had a great idea,damn it superman why did you stop him?
Yes, California is generally considered a successful state, particularly in terms of its economy. It boasts the world's fourth-largest economy, is a hub for innovation and technology, and leads in several key industries. However, California also faces challenges related to cost of living, income inequality, and poverty.
Here's a more detailed look:
Economic Success: GOOD
Global Economic Powerhouse:
California's economy is the largest in the United States and, if it were a country, would be the fourth largest in the world.
Innovation and Technology:
California is home to Silicon Valley, a global center for technology and innovation, and a large number of Fortune 500 companies.
Diverse Industries:
California excels in various sectors, including agriculture, entertainment, and high-tech manufacturing.
Leading in Business:
The state has the most companies on the Fortune 500 list and is a leader in new business starts and venture capital funding.
Challenges:
High Cost of Living: NOT GOOD
California has a very high cost of living, particularly in major metropolitan areas, which can lead to housing affordability issues and challenges for low-income residents.
Income Inequality: NOT GOOD
Despite its economic success, California also has a significant gap between high and low earners, with some regions experiencing high rates of poverty.
Poverty: NOT GOOD
While the state has a strong economy, it also faces challenges related to poverty and access to basic needs like nutrition and healthcare.
Climate Change:
California is facing increased threats from climate change, including droughts, wildfires, and extreme weather events.
Overall:
California's success is multi-faceted, with strong economic indicators and a leading role in innovation and various industries. However, it also faces significant challenges related to affordability, inequality, and climate change, which require ongoing attention and solutions.
What do we have? Overall, California is a great state. Yes, it does have its problems. In particular, in its big cities, but, name one state that doesn’t have these problems in some form.
But, let’s be real, the main beef with California is that it’s SO LIBERAL. If you take a state like Ohio, a state that is very mundane, conservatives will rave over it. Why? Because it follows most of the conservative dogma that the right want for ALL to follow.
yea right, people are to lazy to work, they would rather starve than work.
it would get rid of democrats first because alot of conservatives are capable and willing to do for themselves if need be

I'm hoping California Governor Gavin Newsom will run for President in 2028. I will vote for him. His state is the most successful state in the Union. The Clown should take notes.
Here is one of Saggy's heroes in his 1996 State of the Union speech:
"But there are some areas that the federal government should not leave and should address and address strongly. One of these areas is the problem of illegal immigration. After years of neglect, this administration has taken a strong stand to stiffen the protection of our borders. We are increasing border controls by 50 percent. We are increasing inspections to prevent the hiring of illegal immigrants. And tonight, I announce I will sign an executive order to deny federal contracts to businesses that hire illegal immigrants. Let me be very clear about this: We are still a nation of immigrants; we should be proud of it. We should honor every legal immigrant here, working hard to become a new citizen. But we are also a nation of laws.”

Obama pretty much said the same thing and deported over 3 MILLION scummy illegals! Especially in 2012 and 2013!
it is sad how short liberal memories are.

Phart, President Donald Trump's approval rating dropped to 38%, the lowest percentage of his second of two non-consecutive presidential terms, according to the latest Quinnipiac University poll published on Wednesday (June 11).
No argument from me. We are not crybabies suggesting the Clown King stole the presidency. And Harris? Are you trying to suggest the current tenant of the White House was a better choice? Not in my opinion, but, who cares.
That’s your downfall (plural). You have to reach back because the present is a disaster and the future looks pretty dim.
I’ll give it up on 01/20/2029 or……….well….. you know.
Hey phart, what CAT52! doesn't realize (because she's naive) is that there will be no 2028 elections. Trump's goal is to get rid of them. And all rational maga people know very well that when you have the perfect government you need no elections. What for? I guess you agree.
Gavin NewsCUM: A Governor Driving California to Collapse
California, once a symbol of American prosperity and innovation, now teeters on the brink of fiscal and social collapse. Much of this decline can be directly attributed to the policies and priorities of Governor Gavin Newsom. Under his leadership, the state has not only accumulated a staggering $12 billion budget deficit but is also plagued by high crime, a worsening homelessness crisis, crumbling infrastructure, and wasteful spending. The Governor’s decisions reflect a pattern of political optics over practical governance, leaving Californians burdened and frustrated.
A Broken Budget and Ballooning Liabilities
The $12 billion budget deficit is only the tip of the financial iceberg. California’s unfunded public pension obligations amount to hundreds of billions of dollars, a looming crisis that politicians like Newsom continue to ignore. Instead of tightening the belt or instituting meaningful reform, the state government persists in spending freely—especially on programs that do little to benefit the taxpayers footing the bill.
Among the most egregious examples is California’s commitment to providing healthcare for undocumented immigrants, regardless of the state’s fiscal condition. This policy, while perhaps well-meaning, drains billions from the state's already overburdened healthcare system, contributing further to the deficit while offering little return to the average Californian struggling with rising costs and declining services.
Gas Prices Set to Soar
Full libtard logic- Shut down refineries that run the entire state! Fucking muppets. On July 1, Californians will be hit with yet another gas tax increase, further compounding one of the state’s most regressive burdens. California already boasts the highest gas prices in the nation, and Newsom’s support for shutting down in-state refineries is poised to push prices above an astounding $8 per gallon. This is not only economically punishing for the average commuter—it also drives up the cost of goods and services across the board, making life increasingly unaffordable. Translation- more cunts on welfare or leaving the state!
Shutting down refineries in the name of environmental progress sounds noble on paper, but in practice, it ignores basic economic realities. Reduced refining capacity will leave California dependent on out-of-state oil, all while continuing to subsidize electric vehicle incentives for a population that largely cannot afford them.
Crime and Homelessness Spiral Out of Control
California’s major cities, including San Francisco and Los Angeles, have seen surging crime rates and a seemingly unmanageable homelessness epidemic. Newsom has failed to support robust law enforcement or adopt effective crime prevention strategies. At the same time, billions have been funneled into homelessness initiatives with little accountability or transparency. Soros prosecutors stopped enforcing the law. Fucking ridiculous!
In Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass has refused to open an audit into the billions already spent on homelessness. The lack of oversight should alarm every taxpayer. Where is the money going? Why is the crisis worsening despite record spending? These questions remain unanswered under Newsom’s watch. Her refusal just happened AFTER she also fucked up the fires this year.
Instead of addressing root causes or evaluating the efficacy of existing programs, Newsom and his allies continue to throw money at the problem, hoping it will go away. Meanwhile, public parks, sidewalks, and even residential neighborhoods are overtaken by encampments, driving down quality of life and safety for everyone. Junkies run downtown LA and there is an APP that tells you were humans have pooped in San Fran!
A High-Speed Rail to Nowhere
No discussion of Newsom’s failed leadership would be complete without mentioning California’s infamous high-speed rail project. Originally approved by voters in 2008, the project was promised as a revolutionary transportation solution connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles. Over a decade and $17 billion later, not a single stretch of usable track has been laid.
Despite ballooning costs, missed deadlines, and widespread public skepticism, the project marches on, devouring public funds that could have been used to repair roads, invest in schools, or improve water infrastructure. It stands as a monument to mismanagement, yet Newsom continues to support it, unwilling to pull the plug on what has clearly become a boondoggle.
Infrastructure Neglected
While billions are wasted on a train to nowhere, California’s basic infrastructure is falling apart. Roads are potholed, bridges are deteriorating, and the state’s water storage and delivery systems—vital in a drought-prone region—are outdated and overtaxed. Instead of investing in these essential systems, Newsom’s budget prioritizes flashy projects and ideological programs that do little to address everyday needs.
The same can be said of the electrical grid. Rolling blackouts are now a routine part of life for Californians, especially during heatwaves. Yet the state insists on accelerating the shutdown of natural gas and nuclear power plants, replacing them with renewables that, while important long-term, are currently incapable of sustaining peak demand. Last year, scummy gov told Californians NOT to charge their EV cars due to too much strain! You can't make this shit up!
Conclusion: Time for a Reckoning- No chance for the White House- Won't even get the nomination!
Governor Gavin Newsom has overseen an era of economic decline, social disorder, and fiscal irresponsibility. His administration has failed to prioritize the needs of Californians, instead chasing headlines and politically expedient causes. Whether it’s skyrocketing gas prices, rampant homelessness, crumbling infrastructure, or a high-speed rail fiasco, the facts are clear: California is in crisis, and Newsom’s leadership is a major reason why.
It is time for voters and lawmakers alike to demand accountability, transparency, and a return to responsible governance. California can still be a beacon of prosperity—but only if it sheds the political dysfunction and misplaced priorities that have defined the Newsom era.
Attacking cops and looting businesses will be his legacy!
Stupid Cat thinks CA is so great! Then again, her education is lacking on so many levels!
There you go again, showing off your big brain and 4th grade math skills! Low-level grammar too!
"an yet..." You should have used And yet...
CA government does NOT fund the federal government. Nor does any state. Residents with jobs and businesses pay federal taxes. And nothing close to 60% either.
Illegals pay NOTHING to contribute to the US. They leach off freebies and send their wages back to their shit hole countries.
This is just for Mexico:
In 2024, Mexican households received approximately $64.75 billion in remittances, a record level
Through the first four months of 2025, Mexico received about $19.02 billion in remittances—a 2.5 % decrease compared to the same period in 2024.
Businesses, depending on how they are legally structured, pay different rates.
If CA is so fucking great, why don't you move there? Oh wait, you can't afford to live in that democrat cesspool!
You reap the benefits of strong republican leadership and low taxes in Florida.
The first is a spell check error. You don't get to criticize my way of writing just because I make mistakes just like everyone else. About the rest of my post, every state contributes to the national coffers and then the feds redistributes it back to the states. What I was trying to say, and perhaps you are right that I stated it wrongly, is that that distribution is uneven. Some states contribute more than what they get back. The Feds pay for the cost of doing business by collecting taxes in many forms.
I live in Florida because I was born in Coral Gables, Florida, and, like most people, I've stayed close to my roots. I've never complained about my state. I've complained about the present government
Moron- states do NOT directly take from their budget and give it to the feds- That is a simpletons view. CA gives about 13% of taxes collected via taxes.
Did you sleep through your entire limited time in school?
I have never seen someone so dumb that they keep doubling down on inaccurate information. Fucking hell.

Cat says CA is the "most successful state in the union."
I say pull your head out of your ass!
Where California struggles—morally and fiscally:
Debt and Budget Issues:
Despite its large economy, California’s debt burden is massive, especially with unfunded public pension liabilities. Estimates vary, but the total unfunded liabilities (pensions, retiree healthcare, etc.) exceed $1 trillion when fully accounted for. A TRILLION dollars! Jesus fuck.
Budget surpluses in good years often swing back to deficits when the economy slows. As of 2024-25, CA is facing multi-billion-dollar shortfalls.
Cost of Living and Homelessness:
California has some of the highest housing costs in the country, pushing out middle-class families.
Homelessness is a humanitarian crisis—over 180,000 homeless people, including many mentally ill and drug-addicted, and billions spent with few results.
Outmigration:
Many residents and businesses are leaving the state for Texas, Arizona, Florida, and Nevada, citing high taxes, regulation, and crime. All GOP states!
Moral and Governance Criticism:
Critics argue California’s progressive leadership prioritizes ideology over public safety, education, or economic balance.
Illegal immigration, drug use, and urban decay (like in San Francisco and parts of Los Angeles) are often cited as signs of moral and civic decline.
CA does not show their under funded pension on their books due to some accounting regulations... but they are broke AF
How Liberal Democratic Policies Continue to Undermine America Despite Electoral Defeats
Despite suffering electoral losses and growing public dissatisfaction, liberal Democrats continue to push a political agenda that is damaging the social, economic, and moral fabric of the United States. Through their influence in state governments, media, academia, and activist groups, they promote policies that foster lawlessness, prioritize illegal immigrants over American citizens, and enable radical groups that perpetuate violence and division. These consequences are visible daily—on our streets, at our borders, and in our schools—and threaten the very principles that sustain American democracy and sovereignty.
Lawlessness and the Normalization of Riots
One of the most disturbing trends encouraged by liberal Democrats is the normalization of political violence under the guise of “social justice.” In the summer of 2020, American cities were ravaged by protests that frequently turned into violent riots. Businesses were looted and burned, police officers were attacked, public monuments were destroyed, and entire city blocks were taken over by anarchists—as seen in Seattle’s CHAZ (Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone).
Rather than condemning this violence unequivocally, prominent Democrats either downplayed it or outright supported it. Then-Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris promoted a bail fund for rioters in Minneapolis. Congressional members like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ayanna Pressley made statements that appeared to rationalize destruction as a form of “justice.” Democratic mayors in Portland, Chicago, and New York refused to allow police departments to crack down on rioters, only fueling the chaos.
This permissiveness toward violence when it serves left-wing causes erodes public trust in institutions and sets a dangerous precedent: that political goals can be achieved through intimidation and mob rule. It undermines peaceful, lawful resolution of grievances—the cornerstone of a functioning democracy.
Prioritizing Illegal Immigrants Over U.S. Citizens-Disgusting!
Liberal Democrats consistently advocate for open borders, sanctuary cities, and expanded welfare benefits for illegal immigrants—even as Americans face growing economic and social challenges. Every major blue city in the US is in economic ruin. Crime and illegals have destroyed America like a bunch of locusts.
History shows this isn’t new. In 1996, President Bill Clinton (Saggy's hero) signed a law allowing expedited deportations without due process for undocumented immigrants. Later, President Barack Obama deported over 3 million people, more than any previous president, and urged prospective migrants not to send their children to the border.
Contrary to current Democratic claims, it was the Obama administration—not Trump—that first placed detained illegal immigrants in chain-link holding areas, known as “cages.” The narrative around family separation has also been weaponized politically. When American citizens are arrested, they don’t bring their families to jail—so why should illegal immigrants receive different treatment?
Democrats now blame Donald Trump for the illegal immigration crisis, despite policy groundwork laid by previous administrations. For example, when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis sent migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, the wealthy liberal enclave quickly moved to remove them, revealing that while liberal elites support open borders in theory, they reject the consequences in their own communities.
Meanwhile, thousands of illegal immigrants are housed in taxpayer-funded hotels in major cities, often displacing American veterans and low-income families. Liberal pushes to grant non-citizens voting rights, driver’s licenses, and taxpayer-funded healthcare undermine the rights and resources of American citizens.
The Trump administration must also crack down on the funding sources behind riots and violent unrest, which are often supported by domestic and foreign groups. Additionally, it should halt or severely tax wire transfers sent to Mexico and other countries when those funds come from untaxed wages earned in the U.S. A 46% tax on such transfers would deter tax evasion and protect American workers.
The High Cost of Illegal Immigration
Illegal immigration costs U.S. taxpayers over $150 billion annually, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). These costs include education, healthcare, welfare, law enforcement, and incarceration.
Schools in border states struggle to meet the needs of non-English-speaking students, and hospitals absorb costs for uninsured patients. The narrative that illegal immigrants fill “jobs Americans won’t do” ignores how mass low-skilled immigration depresses wages and job opportunities, especially for minorities and working-class citizens.
By refusing to enforce immigration laws, Democrats prioritize foreign nationals over their own citizens, undermining economic fairness and social cohesion.
Support from Radical and Violent Organizations
Groups like Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa have received financial and ideological support from liberal donors, corporations, and politicians. BLM raised tens of millions after George Floyd’s death but provided little transparency about fund usage, while pushing radical agendas that include defunding police departments.
Antifa has carried out violent attacks on law enforcement and journalists, declared “autonomous zones,” and disrupted civic life in cities like Portland and Seattle. Many Democrats refuse to denounce these groups or downplay their activities, effectively emboldening extremism.
This permissive attitude toward violence threatens civil society and the rule of law, core values that should transcend political affiliations.
Electoral Losses Don’t Slow the Agenda
Even after losing elections (more like clobbered), liberal Democrats maintain disproportionate influence through courts, bureaucracies, media, and educational institutions. In states like California and Illinois, Democratic supermajorities pass laws that decriminalize crime, expand benefits to non-citizens, and restrict parental rights in education.
Federal judges appointed during Democratic administrations block immigration enforcement and voter ID laws, while liberal school boards promote radical ideologies. Electoral defeats have not resulted in meaningful policy changes; Democrats use bureaucratic power and media to push their agenda, often against voter wishes.
Conclusion: A Crossroads for the Nation
America is at a critical crossroads. The continued influence of liberal Democratic policies, even after public rejection, threatens to fundamentally change the nation in unacceptable ways. Prioritizing illegal immigrants over citizens, tolerating riots, and undermining law and order is not compassion—it’s political opportunism with dangerous consequences.
The solution requires more than electoral wins. It demands accountability, legal enforcement, and a return to values of hard work, personal responsibility, and national sovereignty. Only then can America reverse decades of liberal overreach and restore a government that serves its people—not ideology.
cat52!- where is that pic of your scar you old loon?
Everyone knows you did not have that surgery! In fact, most heart surgery does not involve cracking the chest these days. Just a small incision. A pathetic attempt to get attention and to remain relevant!
And speaking of pictures, I had a professional photographer analyze her pictures. Several of her pictures were taken on 35mm film- last used in the 1990's! Here is his official report to detect her fraud:
1. Film Grain
Visible, irregular grain structure is one of the most distinct signs of 35mm film. Unlike digital noise, film grain:
Is more uniform in the shadows
Varies across the image in a natural, organic way
Differs by film stock (e.g., Kodak vs. Fujifilm)
2. Color and Tonal Characteristics
Scanned film often shows:
Subtle color shifts, sometimes with a slight green, red, or magenta tint
Lower contrast in raw scans unless edited
Smooth highlight roll-off; blown-out areas look softer than digital clipping
Richer shadows and dynamic range in black and white film
3. Edge Artifacts
If the scan includes the film border, you may see:
Sprocket holes
Film type markings like “Kodak 400TX”
Frame numbers
These are strong indicators of 35mm film origin.
4. File Metadata
Scanned images often lack typical EXIF data (camera model, lens, shutter speed, ISO, etc.).
If present, metadata might mention a scanner (e.g., Epson V600, Plustek, Nikon Coolscan), revealing its scanned-from-film origin.
Resolution may also be unusual, such as 3420 Ч 2280.
5. Halation and Bloom
Some film stocks, especially color negative film, create a soft red or orange glow around bright light sources, known as halation.
This glow is not present in purely digital images.

7. Subject and Context
Sometimes the subject matter gives a clue:
Dated clothing, cars, or architecture- like what we see in her pictures!
A vintage aesthetic or composition style
Conclusion:
Not a single picture is less than 20 plus years old! A site fraud!
Other comments from our trained fraud detector:
-what kind of old cow puts pictures of her old wrinkled body on a sex site?
- Face of a prawn, body of a rhino, and legs of a sumo wrestler!
- Her tits look like a student driver crushed some traffic cones!
- That snatch looks so loose she if she sat on someone's face, they would be wearing a 10 gallon hat! Disgusting I know!
So what? By the way, I never gave you permission to use ANY of my pics. I've asked Admin to do something. You've been mad at me since you came down to Ft Lauderdale to date me and, after I saw what a loser you were, I dumped you during dinner at that Brazilian steakhouse.
Admin won’t do anything at least he didn’t when you stole my pictures admin’s not a baby sitter and he would rather not be bothered with your crap 💩 he foresees this kiddy squabbling as being a pain in his ass
And yet he did. Dgraff do you see that pic in my gallery? A pic that was so photoshopped no one thought to question it? This loser, your friend (naturally) has a pic he stole from my gallery, a pic I posted to honor my Dad, a WWII veteran, showing his resting place in a National Veteran’s Cemetery, and he stole it and desecrated it by photoshopping a toilet on top of my Dad’s grave. That’s whom you are supporting. Do you realize what you are? I don’t think so. So deflect. You are hurt because I called you on your CONSTANT snide remarks about me. Did you really think I had any other reasons to try to be friendly than just to calm the waters? I’ve had many men in my life and believe me when I tell you, “You are so far off my league you are in the nosebleed bleachers. Yeah, I’m 73 and I can still give a man a ride that will stay with him in a really good way, but you and Skittles and that Chihuahua? Please, don’t make me laugh.
You know you could have avoided the whole mess your husband was trying to get you to leave this site two years ago but you wouldn’t you thought it was more important to stay and fight with everyone and it cost you your reputation your credibility and your marriage you brought it on yourself all you would have to of done was walk away
So quit blaming everyone but yourself i bet chuck would take you back if you left and focused your attention to your husband for once
My reputation and credibility was in the toilet from day one, but from you and your other like minded members. It's the cost of participating in the forums. As far as my one to one interactions with other members, I do as well as can be expected. So, yes, I do have fun being here and I will leave the site when I want and not from a suggestion from others.
As far as my ex is concerned, its not a question of him taking me back. I'm the one that would decide if we got back together again and at the moment, and probably for ever, I don't want him back.
Having said all of the above, I would like to say here, and publicly, that I've acted like a bitch to you Dgraff and would like to apologize.
Air Force veteran Gina Ortiz Jones wins runoff race for San Antonio mayor
Jones, who served in the Biden administration, defeated Rolando Pablos, a former Texas secretary of state, in a high-profile, bitterly partisan contest.
Yeah? How about Obama deporting more illegals that the Clown? And what did he do with the border? Nothing much.
So tell me are you paying less for groceries? Are cars less expensive? Are IPhones less expensive? How many wars did he stop? How many countries are “trembling” from his tariff debacle? How do you feel about him sending Marines to control civilians?
I can go on for ever, but, it’s wasted time. Well, enjoy your 15 min of glory because I promise you this, even if I don’t live long to see it, WE WILL BRING IT ALL BACK.
The sudden return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States on Friday to face federal charges of smuggling migrants across the country was a messaging triumph for the Trump administration.
The news deflected public attention from a series of unanimous court rulings — including a Supreme Court decision — that President Donald Trump did not have the power to unilaterally detain and deport individuals to foreign prisons without a review by a judge.
If they can't do it the legal way, they'll do it illegally. They can't admit a mistake to save their lives.
Lie lie lie lie
why does anyone bother giving a damn about a piece of shit like this guy?he smuggled human beings around like illegal booze or something. send him away and don't let him back in
well, why lie? biden has been a crook his whole life. do we want him to suffer a slow death by cancer? i don't,but i can only speak for myself in that matter.. but at least you know how Trump feels and he didn't sugar coat for you. which is what most liberals like sadly, you can feed them bullshit and as long as it has ice cream on top they love it.

Well, that’s one. The one that caused all the initial problems because his nose was so high in the air, he needed oxygen cylinders to breathe. Good riddance. 🖕😈
you are far gone, incapable of being even as much as an idiot.but without people like you, others would have no idea what the repercussions were of being a educated dumbass. you have some education, but the way you use it, you would be better off baiting hooks at the pier.
fuck you, there is no reply i could provide that would please you. and besides,what the hell would i want to please the likes of you for anyway?
Trumps does things i don't like, to many handouts to farmers, tariffs on goods we can't buy made in the US and etc. but even if he was the terrible person you label him to be, he was still the lesser of the 2 evils to pick from.
well it's like this, if murderers were punished with equal zeal as folks these and Martha Stewert i wouldn't think much of it.
According to FBOP records, Todd Chrisley will be released on June 11, 2032, two years sooner than his original sentence. Julie Chrisley's sentence was reduced by 14 months and will be released in March. 23, 2028. Back in September, her request for a reduced sentence was rejected by U.S. District Judge Eleanor L. Ross.

Martha Stewart was “filled with joy” after being released ...
Martha Stewart was sentenced to five months in federal prison. She served her time at the Alderson Federal Prison Camp in West Virginia. Additionally, she was ordered to serve five months of home confinement and two years of probation.
The sentence stemmed from her conviction for lying to federal investigators and obstruction of justice in relation to her sale of ImClone stock. While initially charged with insider trading, she was ultimately convicted on the obstruction and perjury charges.
but o j simpson can knife his wife and boyfreind and get away with it scot free then write a book about how he did it.. eh, why is that right?
It right because a jury of his and their peers said so and that's as close to justice as we can achieve. You, Phart, just will not see this. You think the law is good for the goose but not the gander. Please, sir, get a set and distance yourself from the MAGA crowd and start letting some sunshine into what I perceive to be a beautiful mind.
i have a set and medical records to prove it.
the sun shines on me alot.
heres the thing.
those of us that do happen to think for our selves sometime are in alignment with those others disagree with. not my fault. even if i did have a opinion that was not in alignment for the most part with Trump, it wouldn't make any difference,i would be considered a radical.
killers should get stiffer sentences than someone that is accused of fraud.
What are you asking him to do???
Distance himself from maga?
Are you not aware that being in a cult simply fucks your brain up and genders it unable to take any independent decisions?
His adherence to the cult tells him that he should stick with maga even if he has to die.
He's like a heroine addict.
Exactly like this.
You're telling him to stop using drugs.
and you are a educated, Addlepated . obtuse, that can't see the forest for the trees.
you think a fraudster should serve a life sentence but yet a killer should walk.
of course you support abortion ,killing before born so it is logical you would just consider murder a late term abortion.
i googled some fancy words to use instead of dumbass and that was the best i could do.
and yes i do believe leo has a warped sense of what justice is.
puttting a person in jail for 12 years for getting illegal loans for 12 years, and a woman for 7, and murderers walk after a much shorter sentence or some leo type lawyer gets them off because of a undotted i, that is wrong.
I'm not an addict.
You're an addict to a cult.
When they tell you "a fraudster must be pardoned because your trumpgod wants that" you'll NEVER even question that.
I have not seen any POTUS in my lifetime being weaker on Russia than Trump.
My god man, are you blind and deaf? Your guy is humiliated again and again.
European leaders want to be involved, just so Trump doesn't FUCK IT UP.
Every time they see your clown near Putin, they hold their breath thinking "Will we be at nuclear war after this or did he gift Ukraine to Russia, for a weapons deal with Russia?"
That's maybe a bit of an overstatement, but not by much.

Why Gallup Is Trusted:
- Scientific, transparent methodology: Gallup employs rigorous research methods—including probability-based random sampling, demographic weighting, and maintaining long-standing trend series—to ensure credible results across topics like politics, health, and well-being. Their Methodology Center emphasizes this commitment to quality data.
-Global reach: The Gallup World Poll covers over 150 countries, surveying approximately 1,000 people per country using in-person or telephone methods depending on coverage, allowing for internationally comparable data
- Low bias in reporting: Media Bias/Fact Check rates Gallup as “least biased” with “high credibility,” noting a 69% accuracy rating in political polling and only a slight right-leaning skew (~+0.6).
Elon's approval ratings would be even lower.
you can be sure that he would drop all the way down.
At this moment, he appears clean to most people.
He also doesn't contribute to your Christo-fascism,
but speaks out against it. Everyone except you likes that.
This is evidence that you are a much smaller group than you want to believe.
People obviously think that Elon is changing the world more for the worse,
than for the good. Technology can be positive, but fascism isn't, ever.
Don't overestimate Elon's positive effect. He promised the world affordable electric cars. He is not delivering, he keeps building too expensive cars. He could easily deliver what he promises, he is the wealthiest man in the world, but he keeps failing on his promises. People take that in consideration when they judge him.
Cheaper raw materials, probably somewhat. Why, though?
Cheaper technology? Not really, they just have lots of government investments.
Labor is only a tiny part of car manufacturing. Cars are mostly made by robots.
Elon could make cheaper electric cars, but he doesn't want to. He wants to be a trillionaire. He doesn't care about humanity or nature, he only cares about what makes him wealthy. He could once talk a good game, and he invested well, but now his mind is fucked, probably from all the drugs he's taking. Electric cars were a good investment. I told you many times that I liked him for making EV's cool. But, I also told you that EV's are not saving the world, they are just saving the car. If he is not delivering the cars that humanity needs, but keeps making the big, expensive ones, he's not doing anything positive. He's only taking lots of tax-dollars, to give rich people a good feeling for driving electric. That money could go to better goals.
I don't consider China 'good', but they are better than Elon.
They are actually investing in technology that humanity needs to survive.
ON EARTH, that is, while Elon is investing in humanity surviving on Mars.
He is wasting lots of money on that fantasy, while he takes money from people who need it. That's why I dislike him, besides being a fascist.
Of course, that's much to complicated for most people who answered the poll.
They just saw him turn X into a fascist conspiracy theorist's wet dream
and saw him do the Nazi salute. Those are good reasons to hate him.
However, in the US, they are fanatical monsters. Their politicians are horrible back-stabbing liars, who abuse their power to destroy public schooling, with the goal of getting to indoctrinate other people's children. They also show an amount of hate, towards everyone outside of their cults, that has equals in history of very frightening times. In my country they are humble, in the US, they are downright evil.
The problem is that they are forced, and then get told that THEY sinned.
First they teach them everything related to sex is a sin, and then they r@pe them.
That has fucked up many kids, who suffer from it their whole lives.
However, some have said that the intolerant religion did more damage than the r@pe.
Don't confuse the feelings of 14 y.o. boys, with those of dirty old men, like us.
Many of them were much younger, by the way. Some were girls too.
Sex is fun for consenting adults. Kids might start experimenting before they are adults, but that's no reason for adults to be involved with that. That usually turns out to be very damaging. Not everyone is ready at age 16 or 18, some much earlier, but that's an arbitrary limit that we have set as society, to protect the children who are not.
Or is this some coping for your president, who has very like abused under@ged girls. Understand that being a forced prostitute has no safe age limit, to prevent damage.
He is weaponizing the legal system and the FBI, to keep himself out of prison.
Presidential immunity doesn't cover sex-crimes, from before taking office.

i know what is going on in the real world. we are in a transition from liberal bs policy's and regulations that cripple our country to more common sense.
you can't haul anything for any distance with a truck trying to get 65 mpg.
Under the Biden administration, NHTSA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had issued rules aiming to increase fuel efficiency significantly, reaching a fleet-wide average of 49 mpg for passenger cars and light trucks by 2026.
A 2024 NHTSA rule established standards aiming for 65 mpg for passenger vehicles by 2031.
You might not even have midterms, if it's up to Trump.
Disengagement is a sure way to lose your democracy.
But, democracy can be destroyed very quickly and it takes decades to restore.
Trump's presidency is staggering, the fall can come quickly, if everyone pushes.
You have a lot of years still in you. Don't live it out under fascism.
the younger generation can't even decide if they are male or female, and you expect them to care about democracy? hell, as long as they get a check each month, they are not going to give a shit.
You know why? Because they took money from the wealthy just like Republicans.
The wealthy pay the Republicans to fight for them, and they pay the Democrats
to bend the knees for them. That's why the libs are WEAK.
The only true fighters are THE LEFT. I think even you can see that.
It never took any courage to be a Republican. The wealthy got their backs.
Never any consequences, no matter how many laws you break.
Get rich doing nothing.
At least the libs have to make believe that they are doing something for the people.
Republicans just say that lazy and brown people caused your poverty,
and that lower taxes for the rich will bring you (better paying) jobs.
Best lie ever, when you have enough stupid people to vote for you.
Being a MAGA politician is the easiest job ever. You go on TV, to spread lies
once a week, you don't have to think, or write complicated laws, you just break shit, never show up for work, while the money keeps flowing in from the wealthy, Israel and Russia, and the stupid cult members.
your shit is what is old.
She just wants a standard democracy, instead of an oligarchy.
I’m not living beyond my means. What gave you that idea?
Florida is very expensive, that’s true, but in certain areas only Mostly due to DeSantis and the damn snowbirds (mostly Repuckers) and home insurance.
Both Woody and I have good retirement and money in savings accounts. Either one of us can afford living alone.
Not on a hotdog budget but, I get my meats from GRAZIANO’S meat market (google it, their restaurants are to die for) their aged Argentine imported prime meats, including chorizo sausage and blood sausage are next to none except for Brazilian meats. Hotdogs are for the uneducated pallets.
That will very much NOT lower your inflation.
Do you know what Trump did, to lower the oil price? He didn't increase US extraction. "As of August 2025, U.S. crude oil production is approximately 13.5 million barrels per day (bpd), marking a slight decrease from the record high of 13.63 million bpd reached in December 2024."
So, why is the price of oil down?
1. Increased OPEC+ Production
OPEC+ has raised oil production quotas, with an additional 547,000 barrels per day (bpd) scheduled for September 2025. This move aims to balance supply and demand but has contributed to a supply glut, putting downward pressure on prices.
2. Weakening U.S. Economic Indicators
Recent economic data from the U.S. suggests a slowdown, with growth falling below potential levels. This raises concerns about reduced oil demand, particularly in the OECD countries, leading to downward revisions in global consumption forecasts.
3. Trade Tensions and Tariffs
The looming August 1 tariff deadline imposed by President Trump has created uncertainty in global markets. Investors are concerned about potential disruptions in trade relationships, which could negatively impact oil demand and contribute to price declines.
So, Trump is destroying your economy and global investments, which results in lower oil prices. Oil prices increased under "Mr Magoo", because the economy was BOOMING. Simple supply vs demand.
You don't understand inflation. The prices of groceries aren't an effect of inflation, they are one of the indicators of inflation. The prices of food are determined by supply and demand. If harvests are destroyed, the price of food goes up. If some company destroys their competition and becomes a monopoly, they can raise the price of their product and their profit margin.
If energy become more expensive, because there is a global energy crisis, that will affect the cost of all products that require energy to manufacture.
Interest rates are also a demand and supply issue, of money itself. If you lower the interest rates, you increase the supply of money, not the demand. Then the "price" of money goes down. In other words, you decrease the value of money, making everything you want to buy with it more expensive, especially from products from countries with lower inflation, because your value decreasing currency buys less of it then.
13.63 million barrels per day in December 2024, $71.72 per barrel.
13.50 million barrels per day currently, $66.85 per barrel.
Why was the oil price higher under Biden, while the US produced more oil then?
I'll tell you, it's DEMAND. When the economy cools down, demand for oil declines, resulting in lower prices.
One example is the 2008 financial crisis. Before the crisis: In mid‑2008, crude oil prices (Brent and WTI) peaked at record highs of around $140–$147 per barrel due to strong demand and market speculation.
During the crisis: As the global financial system collapsed and demand plummeted, prices fell dramatically, reaching around $30–$40 per barrel by the end of 2008 and early 2009.
Recovery: Prices gradually recovered as economies stabilized, climbing back to the $70–$80 range by late 2009 and eventually over $100 in subsequent years.
You might think that Trump is doing a good job, when they oil price goes down, but unless he achieved anything on the demand side of energy
(not just oil), the oil price going down is an indicator of the economy cooling down.
I bet it’ll get better on January 21, 2029.
Eggs were 6 dollars a dozen
Milk was 5 dollars a gallon
Gas was 4 dollars a gallon at least
Heating Oil was 5 dollars a gallon
You Democrats are all alike you lie through your teeth and hope America 🇺🇸 don’t remember
“ Upon his inauguration, Donald Trump made lowering the cost of living a key focus of his economic agenda. However, the economic reality regarding price changes following his inauguration presents a mixed picture:
Inflation: Overall inflation eased slightly during the first few months of his administration, according to government data. However, this didn't necessarily mean prices were decreasing across the board, rather that the rate of increase in prices slowed. More recent reports indicate inflation is once again ticking up, with consumer prices in June 2025 showing a 2.6% increase compared to the previous year.”
Put your electronics down grab your bifocals and go out shopping for the day see what things actually cost instead of posting google look ups and consumer reports and phoney numbers and percentages from the left side Marcy works for a food chain she tells me every day what is up or down cody8789 can tell you firsthand because he works for a food chain also don’t forget your bifocals so you see what I’m seeing
It just goes to show you their are left look ups and right depending on the party you are registered under
Cody8789 works for a food chain. What does that mean? I shop at several food chains. I also gas up my cat. My dry cleaning is not a national chain, but, I go to Texas Roadhouse and Carrabba's and Long Horn. I also go to Graziano's. Dollar Tree is no longer a dollar and going to Disney costs more than my mortgage and insurance combined. That is not Biden's fault. Six months after Biden was in office you said that he was in charge. Well, your fuckup has been in office for six months. What has he done for you and me? Am I living better? Am I saving more money? Is FEMA ready to help me during this hurricane season? Are you able to get medicine cheaper?
Come on, Dgraff, show me how wrong I am with or without glasses.
I just paid $11+ for a 12 pack of toilet paper. A year ago it was $6.50 or less. Eggs went down, but I just paid $9+ for 18 eggs.
All relative but still....
And what do you think about all the Chinese stuff that can't be replaced without paying through the nose?
when i say things are as good or better now, i go by what i see in the store myself with my own eyes.
i eat at a place like that once a year maybe for my birthday or on the day marking a year longer after my accident when i am depressed as hell and need something good to cheer me up. .you are talking 30 buck plus meals for 1 at a place like that by the time you tip the waitress that lets your sweet tea go dry twice.
i will admit, much as annas will be in disbelief, i aint much on killin things and guttin them and skinnin them,. i would probably eat alot of corn and beans and shit.
Never let it be said that i don’t beat my meat
Obama in jail
The Clinton’s in jail
The Biden’s all in jail
Bill gates in jail
Oprah in jail
Kamala Harris in jail
Whoopi Goldberg in jail
And a whole bunch more that I’m forgetting
Openly supports imprisoning everyone who ever made him angry.
Legendary!
They will only 'invade a man’s property' if he cheats on his taxes.
That's not Biden breaking the law, that's him upholding the law.
If there is no one making sure people pay their taxes, no one will.
And then your country goes bankrupt. It's already pretty close to it.
You probably are a tax cheat, but that's you breaking the law, not Biden.
Throwing Biden in jail, so they don't go after you? Are you fucking crazy?
If you think that Trump will let you scam taxes, you're really dumb.
He only lets the wealthy do that, NOT YOU. He needs YOU to pay MORE.
What do you think tariffs are? TAXES! ON YOU!
What about Oprah? She's at best a centrist. What did she do?
And Whoopi Goldberg? She's damn right-wing and ignorant as fuck.
Did you just thrown in some black women, for good measure?
Even if the government only pays for the military and the police,
that money still needs to come from somewhere.
And then who will pay for everything else? People!
It's either taxes, or you will need to pay for everything you want to use.
Want to drive this road? $5 please! Want to cross this bridge? $10 please.
That's much more expensive, because it's incredibly inefficient.
That would completely destroy the US, the opposite of MAGA.
Are you really this brainwashed or just acting like it?
they come get it from the average American and the poor.
It was your choice to have them do the latter.
They also don't need that many IRS agents, to go after normal Americans,
because you don't have an army of lawyers hiding your money
and defending you, when you break the law.
By letting Trump fire IRS agents, you are securing yourself as the targets.
Now the wealthy can cheat even more, while you get punished for a mistake.
Did DOGE find even one big wealthy tax-cheat?
No, they canceled grandma's social security.
If you don't learn from that, you never will.
Anything to say about dgraff wanting to imprison everyone you dislike?
There was no need for extra IRS agents to go after Trump.
Trump is not that smart. They had all the evidence that they needed.
and you lot were stupid enough to make him president again.
Biden is indeed not a criminal. Republicans tried to manufacture evidence against him, but were proven to be liars.
None of the legal cases were won by Trump. His defense didn't even have any response to all the evidence against Trump. They're strategy was obstruction and delay, combined with reasoning that Trump had the right to do what he did, instead of rejecting that he did it. Trump would have certainly lost all his cases and would have been found guilty of all or most charges, because he was NOT allowed to do what he did. Unfortunately, he was effective in his delay strategy, because he became president before verdict was achieved. His legal cases were either dropped or paused until he's president no longer. The biggest crime Trump has been accused of is criminal conspiracy to undermine American democracy.
Specifically, Trump was charged with the crimes:
- Conspiracy to defraud the United States (18 U.S.C. § 371)
Max: 5 years in prison and fines.
- Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding (18 U.S.C. § 1512(k))
Max: 20 years in prison.
- Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding (18 U.S.C. § 1512(c))
Max: 20 years in prison.
- Conspiracy against rights (18 U.S.C. § 241)
Max: 10 years, but up to life or death penalty if the conspiracy involves kidnapping, sexual abuse, or death (not alleged in Trump’s case).
Trump was also charged with:
Willful retention of national defense information (Violations of the Espionage Act)
- Charged with 31 counts, each related to keeping a separate classified document marked “SECRET” or “TOP SECRET” at Mar‑a‑Lago without authorization.
These documents included materials on U.S. nuclear weapons, military capabilities, vulnerabilities, and foreign intelligence reports—posing significant national security risks.
Each count carries up to 10 years in prison (though there are no mandatory minimums).
Since there were several TOP SECRET documents still unaccounted for, Trump was still under investigation. He is not telling what he did with these documents. If they would find out that he sold them or gave them to a hostile but not wartime adversary (e.g., Russia, China in peacetime), that would probably be charged as espionage.
Each count carries up to 10 years in prison.
The whole world saw Trump lie about those documents, over and over, until he admitted to have them, so don't try any stupid make believe that he's not GUILTY AS FUCK!
When you move to the United States 🇺🇸 and do it legally or ice will send you right back then you have your say until then keep your opinions to yourself
You have the balls (and I’m using this as a figure of speech, not a statement of fact) to still think this Clown has your interest at heart? Sad.
Trump is an incredible narcissist, he only cares about himself.
The only reason he became president again is to save himself from prison.
The whole world saw him be a traitor and break the law about 100 times.
In any real democracy, he would have been behind bars the next day.
but the buffoon keeps investing in that old tech, while not investing in new tech.
You're destroying your competitiveness with the rest of the world.
In how many ways do you want to fuck over your own country?
It's not America First, it's America last.
Trump might be Israel First, or Russia First, but not America First.
Look at his tariffs; the EU and the US now have a 15% tax on trade.
The US also has tariffs with all other countries in the world.
The EU doesn't have tariffs with the rest of the world.
We can still trade with EVERYONE ELSE, tax-free.
How do you think that will turn out? Good for the US?
obsolete tech for energy? a electron can flow thru a copper wire now same as it did a 100 years ago. coal can heat water to make steam to turn a turbine to generate electricity or it ,or the water can spin a water wheel. same as a 100 years ago.
this new tech is expensive and not recyclable without alot of expanse, so it cost more on both ends.by the time a solar panel pays for it's self, it has lost alot of it's capacity.
Solar and wind are already much cheaper than fossil fuels,
even while fossil fuels are heavily subsidized.
You keep forgetting the cost of the damage. The climate is putting higher costs on your country every single year. You can cancel FEMA, but that means that people just end up homeless for longer. That's a massive burden on your economy.
The risk isn't just climate change, it's also old-fashioned pollution.
There are areas around your fossil fuel extraction plants, where citizens have a 200x higher risk of getting cancer, than in the safest areas of your country.
That's a massive burden on your economy.
Maybe you could make everything that we can, but if that
would have been better, you would have already done it.
It's what we buy from you, that you should worry about.
We can also make everything you make, in many cases better.
Your economy will come to a screaming halt, if we do that.
If you keep making things on coal energy, we might stop buying those.
Your citizens are poorer every day. They don't spend enough to keep your economy alive. You only think about the supply side, the job creators, but do you even understand the demand side of the economy?
People actually need to buy your overpriced crap.
cars you won't buy because you regulate everyone to roller-skates, that number was not relevant to the big picture.
cotton for your clothes, we will just use it here if you don't buy it. sure there will be growing pains.
but we would survive just fine
Americans are not starving because of a lack of food,
but because of a lack of MONEY.
"Weapons you don't buy, can go in our stock piles"
Have you never heard of increasing or decreasing production output?
The reason we don't buy American cars is not regulation,
but because they are too heavy, too big and guzzle fuel.
They don't fit in our hundreds of years old cities.
If you made cars that we would want to buy, we would.
Well, maybe not if they're 15% more expensive than European
and Asian cars.
The reason we do not buy American beef IS because of regulation,
but also because we can make beef that does comply with regulation CHEAPER.
America became the #1 economy in the world, because you produced stuff that other countries wanted to buy. Even though you outsourced a lot of your production to China, you still earned most of the profits. That is changing, because your innovation strength is dwindling, while China's innovation strength is skyrocketing. They don't need you anymore.
Your economy is heavily dependent on domestic consumption, so your economy would be able to survive on your own production and consumption. The problem is that everything is owned by billionaires.
They will leave you, when you're not making them enough money.
You have sacrificed a lot for them to become this wealthy, but that didn't result in any loyalty towards YOU. They screw you for a dollar.
At least Biden tried to invest in education, science and US manufacturing, but Trump thinks he can solve it with tariffs, while he's destroying education and science. He thinks US manufacturing will come back without government investments. That's stupid, you cannot win from China which is investing trillions. Your billionaires are not going to invest in your country, just because of nationalism. They only invest to make more profits for themselves. If their money makes a better return on investment in Mexico, Canada, China or Europe, they'll invest there. If you don't provide them with smart people, who can invent their intellectual property, they'll leave the US for that too.
You WON'T survive just fine. The term MAGA worked, because you know the US is in trouble. Your empire is failing, and Trump is accelerating it.
He's too dumb to understand the causes, and you are following him blind towards utter destruction. Why? Because you like his ignorance and hatred.
that's ANTI-American.
Once The Constitution was your pride,
but you crapped on it, for whole the world to see.
You once thought of yourself as the shining light of democracy,
now you are openly supporting authoritarianism.
SHAME ON YOU!
Every accusation that Republicans threw at him vaporized.
His accusers were caught fabricating evidence and using a perjurious witness.
When was Biden found to be unfit to stand trial?
Are you talking about Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report (February 2024)
on Biden’s handling of classified documents, which declined to prosecute him, noting Biden’s memory lapses. That report did not declare Biden legally unfit
to stand trial. The transcripts of the interviews showed Robert Hur to be misrepresenting Biden's mental state.
There was no legal standing to accuse Biden of any criminal wrongdoing.
Biden did mishandle classified documents. After leaving the vice presidency, he retained and disclosed some classified materials related to Afghanistan and other topics. These were found at his home and former office. However, Hur concluded there was insufficient evidence to prove criminal intent — a necessary element for prosecution under U.S. law (e.g., willful retention under 18 U.S.C. § 793).
That is completely different for Trump. INTENT was the least of it.
Key Alleged Crimes:
- Willful Retention of National Defense Information
Keeping dozens of classified documents after leaving the presidency, in violation of the Espionage Act (18 U.S.C. § 793(e)).
- Conspiracy to Obstruct Justice
Working with aides to conceal documents from federal investigators and the grand jury (18 U.S.C. § 1512(k)).
- Obstruction of Justice / Withholding Documents
Direct acts to obstruct the investigation, such as moving boxes and providing false assurances (18 U.S.C. §§ 1512(b), 1512(c)).
- Concealing or Hiding a Document
Knowingly hiding records to prevent them from being found in an official investigation (18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)).
- False Statements and Representations
Causing lawyers to certify falsely that all classified materials were returned (18 U.S.C. § 1001).
The ones who survive until 1970, not so much.
The large majority of the German people now consider their history very shameful.
My principle is to be critical of my country and my government, at all time.
They don't have to represent my opinions, because we live in a democracy,
but whatever opinions they do represent, I could only be 'proud' of them
if they pass a whole number of moral standards.
Inciting hatred towards groups of people is an immediate FAIL.
Yes, many Germans did not support Hitler making the Jews the scapegoat and gaining power from inciting hatred. If they were caught helping Jews, what happened to them?
Trump has gained power by inciting hatred against LGTBQ+ people and immigrants.
If you're proud because of the hatred against LGTBQ+, you're just a bigot, and we cannot have a discussion about that.
I agree that illegal immigrants in a country are a problem, but HATE IS NEVER OK.
Your country could solve that problem without the hatred.
What is so special about the specific group of Jews, that they should be protected,
no matter what they do? They suffered from Hitler's evil, hatred and prosecution,
but that's no justification for them doing a genocide of themselves.
They have no more right to that piece of land than the Palestinian people.
Correct, the Soviet Union (USSR) under Stalin and Nazi Germany under Hitler,
signed a non-aggression pact, known as the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact (August 1939).
Did you know about the Munich Agreement? On 30 September 1938, Britain (Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain) and France agreed to allow Nazi Germany to annex the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia, in an attempt to avoid war (a policy known as appeasement). Hitler, Mussolini, Chamberlain, and Daladier signed it.
Were they then just as bad as Hitler?
The world is indeed, for big a part, complicit with the evil of WWII,
but it was Hitler who used hatred against a group of people, to rise to power.
Rising to power, by using hatred towards people, is what Trump is doing.
You might agree with some things that he's doing, but being PROUD!?!
Funny, how a random guy I meet on an adult forum would make a better POTUS.
I was a democrat until 2012. What changed my mind was the lack of transparency, the depletion of our economy especially after the 9/11 tragity. Then when they were supporting Iran, the number 1 sponsor of terrorism in the world who was responsible funding 9/11 I realized I made a mistake. JFK was a democrat who I considered the 4 best of all time once he was murdered it didn't matter who won the presidency because they worked for the globalist network.
Trump on his first primary was the key to me switching. Close the border, convert education local which is key, and foreign policy namely GDP % contributions towards NATO to be level. Shrink government to where they are responsible for maintaining national sovereignty and defenses. The governments needs to be employed by the people, not by abuse of power.
But the key point was the leveling business model making tariffs level playing field. Why should americans pay for free healthcare in europe? Why should we pay for free education when the citizens here can't even afford going to college? Why open the borders with leeches getting free healthcare, education with spending allowances while our blue city streets are flooded with poverty?
There are still deep state operatives in the repubclican party and it is divided with smoke screens. That is why the media and democrats with some republicans hate him so much because he sought to change the business model of politics..
The only way democracy can work is to use the desire creating a more perfect union becoming educated through critical reasoning. The country must be educated. Right now america is 32nd in the world even though they spend more money on education than anyone. This is corruption. Dumbing america, propaganda and forced poverty has taken its toll.
The detaining of hundreds of people on immigration charges earns the jail more than $24,000 a day or $720,000 a month in fees paid by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) – on top of $36 an hour in transportation fees the jail charges Ice.
So much for “wanting to do something about the illegal”.

Other estimates suggest a higher cost, with one organization reporting a figure of around $7 billion annually for the uninsured undocumented population in 2019.
so why not some lower paid folks earn some money from the crisis? and once they are deported and the border is fixed, the spending on them is over
You're not spending on them, you're taking from them.
“Hospitals are supposed to provide emergency care to all patients who come in the door, regardless of their ability to pay or their immigration status.

If you don't like socialism, provide a link to a video called:
"How Capitalists Solved The Housing Crisis"
You don't need social housing, you can afford to buy.
So do I, but I still think people who are not as lucky,
deserve to live in a decent home as well.
They are a useless burden to society. It's your fault for creating them.
I'm not a lefty/socialist out of compassion alone, but because it's better for ALL OF US.
It maximizes people's potential, so they contribute to society.
Bums in cardboard boxes don't contribute anything. Well, maybe diseases.
so they could live in a nice box.
whats wrong with putting down the needle or the bottle and going to work?
whats wrong with not having kids or pets if you can't feed them>?
whats wrong with people that they think the rest of us owe people that choose to be worthless bums a damn thing?
What's wrong is your 'thinking' that those problems apply to all bums.
Your system is very good at crushing people, who do everything right.
There are many people who have no fault at all for getting crushed.
People's lives can also get crushed to rubble, AFTER having kids or pets.
Losing ones job or losing ones health is a big risk of that. No fault of them.
We should have a system who prevents occurrences like that crushing people.
The US didn't have that already, but your political side made it even worse.
There is nothing wrong with people who think we owe each other,
there is something wrong with people who think everyone is on their own.
It isn't logical and it isn't consistent with any religion.
In any case, the majority of people don't agree with you, and they will fight back.
The worse it gets before they succeed at it, the harder your side will fall.
taking away all motivation to improve 1's self by making sure the folks know they will not suffer for being lazy and non productive.
tax the rich to pay for the lazy, the rich will just leave and your system would not support it's self.
edit, i got to thinking, damn, i must be poor, i don't have access to a swimming pool.
so can i live in this cheap government housing since i can't afford a pool? wait, i can get a plastic kiddy pool from walmart so i guess i don't qualify.
what would motivate people to do better for themselves if they are living cheap off the governments taxing the "wealthy" ?
and where is the line between wealthy and living in this cheap housing? what is to stop bill gates from putting his estate into a trust and moving in?
do you have a pool cat? maybe you could move into that fancy place built on the tax payers dime?
if you don't have a pool,you are poor according to the socialist
what we as a country need to be looking at is who do we put in for 2028? we need to continue the progress we are making as Rome was not built in a day and our country was not torn apart over night. it takes time,aka years, to fix the fucks up of obama-biden, just the border crisis alone will affect us for decades as we don't know how many terrorist swam over and spoke some spanish to get a free ride to wherever
well first, they would reduce the stupid regulations that cause houses to be so expensive.
We can't use what are referred to as tiny homes in my county, zoning won't allow it. why? because the democrat led county would rather bring in sub divisions with 400,000 dollar plus homes into the area and tax them.
another thing, the bullshit laws preventing you from building your own home on your own property should be abolished. you can't even cut lumber from trees on your own land to use in your home. your home,not the countys home that taxes it.
developers push down acres of trees and burn them to make way for new houses and then import lumber to build them. the very trees they push down and burn could be made into lumber and used on the homes being built. it was done that way years ago.
but not any more. why? because dems can't collect sales tax from the lumber.
i could go on, and may add some more later. but i have a feeling common sense,back to basics solutions are not what you are looking for.
I'm NOT supporting "liberal ideas", related to housing.
"Liberal" in that sense mean exactly what you want. Liberalization of housing means: privatization and deregulation. That's exactly what our government did and which resulted in skyrocketing rent and house prices.
I'm not a liberal, I'm a socialist, I support public ownership.
That's the opposite of privatization and deregulation.
First get your terminology straight, before you discuss economic models for housing.
Right wing policies, (neo)liberal policies, privatization and deregulation,
have NEVER on any significant scale resulted in lower living costs for the public.
However, left-wing (not liberal) policies have been proven to work many times.
When governments increase public ownership, regulation, and long-term investment in housing, affordability, quality, and access tend to improve, especially for lower- and middle-income households. This has been tried and done large scale many times, all over the world, to great success.
There is overwhelming evidence that it worked in Vienna, Austria, Sweden, Singapore and The Netherlands, until the 1990s. I have lived the successes and I have seen the results of privatization and deregulation all around me.
Houses are not so expensive because of stupid regulations, houses are so expensive because it's one of the simplest way for rich people to exploit poor people, when a government privatizes and deregulates housing.
I don't THINK that my ideas the only 1's that might work.
There is just a FUCK-TON of EVIDENCE that your ideas DON'T work and mine DO.
Civilization has been building houses for a while now. Right?
All the ideas have been tried and tested, all over the world.
They just keep telling you that you need deregulation, because it makes a small group of wealthy people even more wealthy, over the backs of everyone else.
You just listen to the people who get paid to LIE FOR THEM.
you can identify it quickly if the buildings are more than a couple years old because there is trash everywhere, they are covered in graffiti ,with junk cars in the parking lot and a mobile police tower nearby.
because the people that use that housing don't work,won't work and do not take any pride in what is provided,don't appreciate it nor do they care how others feel about the way they treat what is provided for them.
if you were given a home, how would you treat it? more than likely you would keep it clean and so forth,why can't everyone?
i worked with a black man for a while and sometimes we would go into poverished areas of town while working and i finally ask him 1 day," why is all this trash laying around?" he said, "because they are poor". i pointed to a plastic grocery bag laying near a park bench and ask him how money it would cost to pick up that bag,put some loose garbage in it and place it into a city provided trash can. he suddenly couldn't answer that question. people are quick to blame their lack of funds on all kinds of issues. and for some reason folks like you tend to make it taboo to ask them why funds are relevant to taking pride in what you do have and taking care of it.
If you don't want to inform yourself about what the rest of the world does,
your worldview on this is totally skewed.
you are over there,living what apparently is a very blessed life,not a care in the world.
You could actually learn a lot, from the successes of others.
But, you would rather believe that you're the best at everything.
It's a thing that CAN work, if you don't want to change the system itself,
but it's a policy of accepting defeat to capitalism.
And he goes to church too.
And brings guns, just in case a foreign guy walks in.
Violent crime, including offenses like assault, robbery, and homicide, has seen an increase in recent years. In 2022-23, police recorded over 2.1 million incidents of violent crime,
In England and Wales, there were approximately 6.59 million crimes recorded by the police in 2024/25, a slight decrease from the previous year. However, this is still one of the highest figures in the past two decades.
now that does not sound civilized. so clean up your own back yard you bunch of wankers!!!
They are a very expensive mascot, but people seem to like it.
It gives a country some status. Trump was very happy to stay in our palace.
He's our top diplomat. Not as smart, but he gets the job done.
I think religion is more stupid. At least my king and queen are real.
Hell no, that people like me cannot speak out against your wannabe dictator.
It's propaganda! They can't have citizens knowing how their politics is failing them.
It's the same in Russia, North Korea, Turkey, India and a whole lot of other countries with authoritarian leaders. Every single wannabe dictator starts with taking control of the media and the judiciary.
I wouldn't say that all churches have this effect on people, but I would be very surprised if phart goes to one of the more liberal churches.
Their news is 24/7 fear porn and anger incitement. The result is people who prefer their personal idea of safety, rather than an actual safer society.

Must be a big one to reach page six
It's only a big one, when Trump talks about it.
Wow, The Clown is really making good on his promises. NOT.
and besides, this is a side effect of the future. Automation. the good riddance of workers demanding much more than they are worth for mundane, simple repetive task that can be done by a machine
Estimates of job losses due to automation and AI vary, but some projections suggest millions of jobs could be impacted. A McKinsey & Company study suggests that between 400 and 800 million individuals globally might need to find new jobs due to automation by 2030. Goldman Sachs predicts that 300 million full-time jobs could be replaced by AI globally. While some jobs will be lost, others will be created, but the transition may require significant reskilling and adaptation.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Manufacturing:
20 million manufacturing jobs could be replaced by automation by 2030, according to PatentPC.
Global Impact:
The World Economic Forum projects that 85 million jobs could be lost due to AI and automation by 2025, but 97 million new jobs will also be created.
US Impact:
Up to 73 million US jobs are potentially at risk of being lost to automation in the next five years, according to a study cited by Edoxi.
Specific Sectors:
McKinsey predicts that up to 375 million workers globally may need to change occupations by 2030 due to automation.
AI's Role:
While some job losses are attributed to robots and other automation technologies, AI is also playing a role in job displacement, particularly in roles involving routine tasks.
Adaptation is Key:
Many sources emphasize the need for workers to adapt to the changing job market by acquiring new skills and embracing lifelong learning.
i hope the day comes when people regret ever asking for so much money, they think they can't make it now, wait until most jobs are done by automation or are done by ai. then they will really understand what it means to not be able to make it.
the next really great depression will be a permanent 1. ai and automation will take care of everything from trash collection to medical procedures. no need to pay workers comp for more than 2 or 3 people to operate and manage the company, it will run it's self.
Link your 'policies' to Biden, because you offer NO evidence that he has anything to do with what you are listing.
Why do you blame Biden for AI?
"In his first days back in office on January 23, 2025, President Trump revoked Biden’s AI regulations and signed Executive Order 14179, effectively deregulating federal oversight of AI"
🚨 Concerns & Criticisms
- Labor and consumer advocates warn that removing oversight puts worker rights and safety at risk .
- Meta’s Yann LeCun labeled the rollback a “witch hunt in academia”, fearing it drives researchers overseas.
- Federal AI body (AISI) cuts tied to the rollback could gut safety and equity efforts.
- Some analysts caution that spotty federal policy may lead to patchwork state laws, confusion, and compliance burdens.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"There’s no evidence that President Biden has signed any legislation that encourages U.S. job offshoring. In fact, his proposals and enacted policies have specifically targeted the opposite"
"Here are several major Biden-era policies that have directly helped bring back jobs to the U.S.:
🏗️ Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) – Nov 2021
$550 billion in new spending on roads, bridges, broadband, EV charging, clean water, transit, ports, etc.
Funded over 60,000 projects, driving construction and forestry-related employment. Analysts found IIJA, CHIPS, and IRA together spurred factory and utility job growth across the country.
💡 CHIPS and Science Act – Aug 2022
Carved out $52 billion in grants and tax credits for U.S. semiconductor manufacturing.
Since passage:
$450 billion committed to chip and electronics manufacturing
17 new fabs, dozens of expansions across 21 states
Expected to create 125,000+ construction and manufacturing jobs, with 200+ projects already launched and 135,800 jobs projected.
🌿 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) – Aug 2022
The largest investment in clean energy in U.S. history.
Over $300 billion in private clean-energy investments announced so far; over 330,000 clean-energy jobs created; projected up to 1.5 million additional jobs over the next decade.
🇺🇸 American Rescue Plan & XR Programs
The $1.9 trillion COVID relief law helped jump-start the economy post-pandemic, accelerating the recovery.
Strengthened “Buy American” rules (raising domestic content threshold to 60–75%), directing $120 billion in federal procurement to U.S.-made goods.
🛡️ Executive Orders & Defense Production Act (DPA)
Signed executive orders boosting U.S. manufacturing (“Made in America”) to incentivize reshoring and facility revitalization.
Invoked the DPA (June 2022) to accelerate domestic clean-energy tech production (solar panels, heat pumps, grid components), leading to new manufacturing jobs in underserved communities.
📊 Impact & Job Trends
The U.S. economy added 16.6 million jobs from Biden’s inauguration through early 2025—it’s the only presidency with monthly job creation throughout its term so far.
367,000 manufacturing jobs added since January 2021—the fastest manufacturing-sector growth in nearly 30 years.
Manufacturing employment climbed to its highest level in ~15 years, with nearly 789,000 factory jobs added since Biden took office."

i don't think folks like you understand the dangers of those people having a nuke. they want to die, they hate America, so they would use a nuke not caring how you or Anannas feels about it.
i am more concerned about terror cells here in the US striking now than iran having 9 of it's nuclear scientist killed at the same time and Trump taking out 3 sites.his strikes are usually very precise to reduce innocent people's lives being lost.
irans leadership is to crazy to have access to nukes and you know that well as anyone. death to America has been their motto for decades.

I can’t help but wonder how Joe Biden or Kamala Harris would have handled this situation probably with another foot locker containing another 100 million dollars and a message saying now calm down boys and the money is all yours
They held hostages for a long time AND convinced OPEC to cut production of petroleum. This led to a shortage of gas and huge jumps in the price of gas. All well and good, or, bad for us, but, WE caused the hatred by involving ourselves in the politics of a sovereign nation. An involvement that changed the fabric of lives in Iran. If they had been able to do that to us we would have flattened Iran.
Now, since Reagan resolved the embassy hostage crisis, what have they done to us? Did they cause another 9/11? Did they openly attack us? Sure, I’m sure that, overtly, they looked for ways to hurt us. After all, we embargoed their LEGAL money held by American banks. Wouldn’t we have done the same?
You, Dgraff, are under a false impression. First, Iran is a country with over 99 million people and, they may suffer from an all out war with us, but, they are fanatics. They will exact a heavy price in lives and costs. They are also very friendly with several other countries that want to bury us. North Korea has nuclear weapons. China has nuclear weapons. Russia has nuclear weapons. They can also strangle the world’s supply of oil. And for what?
I’ll tell you why. It’s because that Clown King wannabe we have leading our nation knows he’s losing it and needed something grand to capture traction. He doesn’t care how many lives, ours, and, yes, theirs, he ends or ruins.
And, you Sir, once again showed your CLEAR, CONCISE, understanding of the situation. God help us.
As far as the Ukraine is concerned, I don't like bullies. Russia, a part of Europe, invaded another European country. That's wrong, but, worse, I don't want American kids losing their lives in another European world war. If you can't understand that, so be it.
israel did not have any bunker busters or planes to haul them. we helped out a ally and eliminated a threat to us in the process. what part of that do you need translated?
a week on from Israel's initial and sudden missile attack on the country - Putin has now vowed to back Iran in any further warfare in the Middle East.
--------------------------------------- added after 13 hours
Watched the news again this morning and not one word about Putin backing Iran just more propaganda from our Jane Fonda of the site
Way to go @cat 52@
Based on recent reports,
Russia does not support Iran developing nuclear weapons.
Here's why and what Russia's stance entails:
Concerns about a nuclear arms race: Moscow fears that Iran developing an atomic bomb would trigger a nuclear arms race across the Middle East.
Emphasis on peaceful nuclear development: Russia has reiterated its backing for Iran's right to peaceful nuclear development.
Role in nuclear negotiations: Russia was involved in the 2015 Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which aimed to limit Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.
Willingness to remove enriched uranium: Russia has stated it is ready to remove highly enriched uranium from Iran and convert it into civilian reactor fuel as a potential way to calm the crisis.
Condemnation of strikes on Iran: Russia has condemned recent US strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, viewing them as unprovoked aggression.
Limited concrete support: Despite its strategic partnership with Iran, Russia has offered limited concrete support following recent strikes, prioritizing its own interests like avoiding escalation and maintaining ties with other global powers.
i don't remember hearing them say it. but i do remember iran saying it,for a long time.

Hey, FUCK, what did I do to you for you to send me an inappropriate gift and then blacklist me? You are a coward and I don't forget. You see this post? Ask around what happens when I get mad. You could have just blacklisted me. I would have accepted that, but, no. I guess they cut your balls off at birth.

i couldn't find the post that skittles was on explaining how shitty california has become so i just put this here.
a once great state has gone to hell in a hand basket.
lex luthor had a great idea,damn it superman why did you stop him?
Here's a more detailed look:
Economic Success: GOOD
Global Economic Powerhouse:
California's economy is the largest in the United States and, if it were a country, would be the fourth largest in the world.
Innovation and Technology:
California is home to Silicon Valley, a global center for technology and innovation, and a large number of Fortune 500 companies.
Diverse Industries:
California excels in various sectors, including agriculture, entertainment, and high-tech manufacturing.
Leading in Business:
The state has the most companies on the Fortune 500 list and is a leader in new business starts and venture capital funding.
Challenges:
High Cost of Living: NOT GOOD
California has a very high cost of living, particularly in major metropolitan areas, which can lead to housing affordability issues and challenges for low-income residents.
Income Inequality: NOT GOOD
Despite its economic success, California also has a significant gap between high and low earners, with some regions experiencing high rates of poverty.
Poverty: NOT GOOD
While the state has a strong economy, it also faces challenges related to poverty and access to basic needs like nutrition and healthcare.
Climate Change:
California is facing increased threats from climate change, including droughts, wildfires, and extreme weather events.
Overall:
California's success is multi-faceted, with strong economic indicators and a leading role in innovation and various industries. However, it also faces significant challenges related to affordability, inequality, and climate change, which require ongoing attention and solutions.
What do we have? Overall, California is a great state. Yes, it does have its problems. In particular, in its big cities, but, name one state that doesn’t have these problems in some form.
But, let’s be real, the main beef with California is that it’s SO LIBERAL. If you take a state like Ohio, a state that is very mundane, conservatives will rave over it. Why? Because it follows most of the conservative dogma that the right want for ALL to follow.

"But there are some areas that the federal government should not leave and should address and address strongly. One of these areas is the problem of illegal immigration. After years of neglect, this administration has taken a strong stand to stiffen the protection of our borders. We are increasing border controls by 50 percent. We are increasing inspections to prevent the hiring of illegal immigrants. And tonight, I announce I will sign an executive order to deny federal contracts to businesses that hire illegal immigrants. Let me be very clear about this: We are still a nation of immigrants; we should be proud of it. We should honor every legal immigrant here, working hard to become a new citizen. But we are also a nation of laws.”

That’s your downfall (plural). You have to reach back because the present is a disaster and the future looks pretty dim.
I’ll give it up on 01/20/2029 or……….well….. you know.
California, once a symbol of American prosperity and innovation, now teeters on the brink of fiscal and social collapse. Much of this decline can be directly attributed to the policies and priorities of Governor Gavin Newsom. Under his leadership, the state has not only accumulated a staggering $12 billion budget deficit but is also plagued by high crime, a worsening homelessness crisis, crumbling infrastructure, and wasteful spending. The Governor’s decisions reflect a pattern of political optics over practical governance, leaving Californians burdened and frustrated.
A Broken Budget and Ballooning Liabilities
The $12 billion budget deficit is only the tip of the financial iceberg. California’s unfunded public pension obligations amount to hundreds of billions of dollars, a looming crisis that politicians like Newsom continue to ignore. Instead of tightening the belt or instituting meaningful reform, the state government persists in spending freely—especially on programs that do little to benefit the taxpayers footing the bill.
Among the most egregious examples is California’s commitment to providing healthcare for undocumented immigrants, regardless of the state’s fiscal condition. This policy, while perhaps well-meaning, drains billions from the state's already overburdened healthcare system, contributing further to the deficit while offering little return to the average Californian struggling with rising costs and declining services.
Gas Prices Set to Soar
Full libtard logic- Shut down refineries that run the entire state! Fucking muppets. On July 1, Californians will be hit with yet another gas tax increase, further compounding one of the state’s most regressive burdens. California already boasts the highest gas prices in the nation, and Newsom’s support for shutting down in-state refineries is poised to push prices above an astounding $8 per gallon. This is not only economically punishing for the average commuter—it also drives up the cost of goods and services across the board, making life increasingly unaffordable. Translation- more cunts on welfare or leaving the state!
Shutting down refineries in the name of environmental progress sounds noble on paper, but in practice, it ignores basic economic realities. Reduced refining capacity will leave California dependent on out-of-state oil, all while continuing to subsidize electric vehicle incentives for a population that largely cannot afford them.
Crime and Homelessness Spiral Out of Control
California’s major cities, including San Francisco and Los Angeles, have seen surging crime rates and a seemingly unmanageable homelessness epidemic. Newsom has failed to support robust law enforcement or adopt effective crime prevention strategies. At the same time, billions have been funneled into homelessness initiatives with little accountability or transparency. Soros prosecutors stopped enforcing the law. Fucking ridiculous!
In Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass has refused to open an audit into the billions already spent on homelessness. The lack of oversight should alarm every taxpayer. Where is the money going? Why is the crisis worsening despite record spending? These questions remain unanswered under Newsom’s watch. Her refusal just happened AFTER she also fucked up the fires this year.
Instead of addressing root causes or evaluating the efficacy of existing programs, Newsom and his allies continue to throw money at the problem, hoping it will go away. Meanwhile, public parks, sidewalks, and even residential neighborhoods are overtaken by encampments, driving down quality of life and safety for everyone. Junkies run downtown LA and there is an APP that tells you were humans have pooped in San Fran!
A High-Speed Rail to Nowhere
No discussion of Newsom’s failed leadership would be complete without mentioning California’s infamous high-speed rail project. Originally approved by voters in 2008, the project was promised as a revolutionary transportation solution connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles. Over a decade and $17 billion later, not a single stretch of usable track has been laid.
Despite ballooning costs, missed deadlines, and widespread public skepticism, the project marches on, devouring public funds that could have been used to repair roads, invest in schools, or improve water infrastructure. It stands as a monument to mismanagement, yet Newsom continues to support it, unwilling to pull the plug on what has clearly become a boondoggle.
Infrastructure Neglected
While billions are wasted on a train to nowhere, California’s basic infrastructure is falling apart. Roads are potholed, bridges are deteriorating, and the state’s water storage and delivery systems—vital in a drought-prone region—are outdated and overtaxed. Instead of investing in these essential systems, Newsom’s budget prioritizes flashy projects and ideological programs that do little to address everyday needs.
The same can be said of the electrical grid. Rolling blackouts are now a routine part of life for Californians, especially during heatwaves. Yet the state insists on accelerating the shutdown of natural gas and nuclear power plants, replacing them with renewables that, while important long-term, are currently incapable of sustaining peak demand. Last year, scummy gov told Californians NOT to charge their EV cars due to too much strain! You can't make this shit up!
Conclusion: Time for a Reckoning- No chance for the White House- Won't even get the nomination!
Governor Gavin Newsom has overseen an era of economic decline, social disorder, and fiscal irresponsibility. His administration has failed to prioritize the needs of Californians, instead chasing headlines and politically expedient causes. Whether it’s skyrocketing gas prices, rampant homelessness, crumbling infrastructure, or a high-speed rail fiasco, the facts are clear: California is in crisis, and Newsom’s leadership is a major reason why.
It is time for voters and lawmakers alike to demand accountability, transparency, and a return to responsible governance. California can still be a beacon of prosperity—but only if it sheds the political dysfunction and misplaced priorities that have defined the Newsom era.
Attacking cops and looting businesses will be his legacy!
Stupid Cat thinks CA is so great! Then again, her education is lacking on so many levels!
"an yet..." You should have used And yet...
CA government does NOT fund the federal government. Nor does any state. Residents with jobs and businesses pay federal taxes. And nothing close to 60% either.
Illegals pay NOTHING to contribute to the US. They leach off freebies and send their wages back to their shit hole countries.
This is just for Mexico:
In 2024, Mexican households received approximately $64.75 billion in remittances, a record level
Through the first four months of 2025, Mexico received about $19.02 billion in remittances—a 2.5 % decrease compared to the same period in 2024.
Businesses, depending on how they are legally structured, pay different rates.
If CA is so fucking great, why don't you move there? Oh wait, you can't afford to live in that democrat cesspool!
You reap the benefits of strong republican leadership and low taxes in Florida.
I live in Florida because I was born in Coral Gables, Florida, and, like most people, I've stayed close to my roots. I've never complained about my state. I've complained about the present government
Did you sleep through your entire limited time in school?

Cat says CA is the "most successful state in the union."
I say pull your head out of your ass!
Where California struggles—morally and fiscally:
Debt and Budget Issues:
Despite its large economy, California’s debt burden is massive, especially with unfunded public pension liabilities. Estimates vary, but the total unfunded liabilities (pensions, retiree healthcare, etc.) exceed $1 trillion when fully accounted for. A TRILLION dollars! Jesus fuck.
Budget surpluses in good years often swing back to deficits when the economy slows. As of 2024-25, CA is facing multi-billion-dollar shortfalls.
Cost of Living and Homelessness:
California has some of the highest housing costs in the country, pushing out middle-class families.
Homelessness is a humanitarian crisis—over 180,000 homeless people, including many mentally ill and drug-addicted, and billions spent with few results.
Outmigration:
Many residents and businesses are leaving the state for Texas, Arizona, Florida, and Nevada, citing high taxes, regulation, and crime. All GOP states!
Moral and Governance Criticism:
Critics argue California’s progressive leadership prioritizes ideology over public safety, education, or economic balance.
Illegal immigration, drug use, and urban decay (like in San Francisco and parts of Los Angeles) are often cited as signs of moral and civic decline.
CA does not show their under funded pension on their books due to some accounting regulations... but they are broke AF
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Me thinks you complain too much.
Despite suffering electoral losses and growing public dissatisfaction, liberal Democrats continue to push a political agenda that is damaging the social, economic, and moral fabric of the United States. Through their influence in state governments, media, academia, and activist groups, they promote policies that foster lawlessness, prioritize illegal immigrants over American citizens, and enable radical groups that perpetuate violence and division. These consequences are visible daily—on our streets, at our borders, and in our schools—and threaten the very principles that sustain American democracy and sovereignty.
Lawlessness and the Normalization of Riots
One of the most disturbing trends encouraged by liberal Democrats is the normalization of political violence under the guise of “social justice.” In the summer of 2020, American cities were ravaged by protests that frequently turned into violent riots. Businesses were looted and burned, police officers were attacked, public monuments were destroyed, and entire city blocks were taken over by anarchists—as seen in Seattle’s CHAZ (Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone).
Rather than condemning this violence unequivocally, prominent Democrats either downplayed it or outright supported it. Then-Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris promoted a bail fund for rioters in Minneapolis. Congressional members like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ayanna Pressley made statements that appeared to rationalize destruction as a form of “justice.” Democratic mayors in Portland, Chicago, and New York refused to allow police departments to crack down on rioters, only fueling the chaos.
This permissiveness toward violence when it serves left-wing causes erodes public trust in institutions and sets a dangerous precedent: that political goals can be achieved through intimidation and mob rule. It undermines peaceful, lawful resolution of grievances—the cornerstone of a functioning democracy.
Prioritizing Illegal Immigrants Over U.S. Citizens-Disgusting!
Liberal Democrats consistently advocate for open borders, sanctuary cities, and expanded welfare benefits for illegal immigrants—even as Americans face growing economic and social challenges. Every major blue city in the US is in economic ruin. Crime and illegals have destroyed America like a bunch of locusts.
History shows this isn’t new. In 1996, President Bill Clinton (Saggy's hero) signed a law allowing expedited deportations without due process for undocumented immigrants. Later, President Barack Obama deported over 3 million people, more than any previous president, and urged prospective migrants not to send their children to the border.
Contrary to current Democratic claims, it was the Obama administration—not Trump—that first placed detained illegal immigrants in chain-link holding areas, known as “cages.” The narrative around family separation has also been weaponized politically. When American citizens are arrested, they don’t bring their families to jail—so why should illegal immigrants receive different treatment?
Democrats now blame Donald Trump for the illegal immigration crisis, despite policy groundwork laid by previous administrations. For example, when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis sent migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, the wealthy liberal enclave quickly moved to remove them, revealing that while liberal elites support open borders in theory, they reject the consequences in their own communities.
Meanwhile, thousands of illegal immigrants are housed in taxpayer-funded hotels in major cities, often displacing American veterans and low-income families. Liberal pushes to grant non-citizens voting rights, driver’s licenses, and taxpayer-funded healthcare undermine the rights and resources of American citizens.
The Trump administration must also crack down on the funding sources behind riots and violent unrest, which are often supported by domestic and foreign groups. Additionally, it should halt or severely tax wire transfers sent to Mexico and other countries when those funds come from untaxed wages earned in the U.S. A 46% tax on such transfers would deter tax evasion and protect American workers.
The High Cost of Illegal Immigration
Illegal immigration costs U.S. taxpayers over $150 billion annually, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). These costs include education, healthcare, welfare, law enforcement, and incarceration.
Schools in border states struggle to meet the needs of non-English-speaking students, and hospitals absorb costs for uninsured patients. The narrative that illegal immigrants fill “jobs Americans won’t do” ignores how mass low-skilled immigration depresses wages and job opportunities, especially for minorities and working-class citizens.
By refusing to enforce immigration laws, Democrats prioritize foreign nationals over their own citizens, undermining economic fairness and social cohesion.
Support from Radical and Violent Organizations
Groups like Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa have received financial and ideological support from liberal donors, corporations, and politicians. BLM raised tens of millions after George Floyd’s death but provided little transparency about fund usage, while pushing radical agendas that include defunding police departments.
Antifa has carried out violent attacks on law enforcement and journalists, declared “autonomous zones,” and disrupted civic life in cities like Portland and Seattle. Many Democrats refuse to denounce these groups or downplay their activities, effectively emboldening extremism.
This permissive attitude toward violence threatens civil society and the rule of law, core values that should transcend political affiliations.
Electoral Losses Don’t Slow the Agenda
Even after losing elections (more like clobbered), liberal Democrats maintain disproportionate influence through courts, bureaucracies, media, and educational institutions. In states like California and Illinois, Democratic supermajorities pass laws that decriminalize crime, expand benefits to non-citizens, and restrict parental rights in education.
Federal judges appointed during Democratic administrations block immigration enforcement and voter ID laws, while liberal school boards promote radical ideologies. Electoral defeats have not resulted in meaningful policy changes; Democrats use bureaucratic power and media to push their agenda, often against voter wishes.
Conclusion: A Crossroads for the Nation
America is at a critical crossroads. The continued influence of liberal Democratic policies, even after public rejection, threatens to fundamentally change the nation in unacceptable ways. Prioritizing illegal immigrants over citizens, tolerating riots, and undermining law and order is not compassion—it’s political opportunism with dangerous consequences.
The solution requires more than electoral wins. It demands accountability, legal enforcement, and a return to values of hard work, personal responsibility, and national sovereignty. Only then can America reverse decades of liberal overreach and restore a government that serves its people—not ideology.
Face it, liberalism is dying!

Wake up people
Everyone knows you did not have that surgery! In fact, most heart surgery does not involve cracking the chest these days. Just a small incision. A pathetic attempt to get attention and to remain relevant!
And speaking of pictures, I had a professional photographer analyze her pictures. Several of her pictures were taken on 35mm film- last used in the 1990's! Here is his official report to detect her fraud:
1. Film Grain
Visible, irregular grain structure is one of the most distinct signs of 35mm film. Unlike digital noise, film grain:
Is more uniform in the shadows
Varies across the image in a natural, organic way
Differs by film stock (e.g., Kodak vs. Fujifilm)
2. Color and Tonal Characteristics
Scanned film often shows:
Subtle color shifts, sometimes with a slight green, red, or magenta tint
Lower contrast in raw scans unless edited
Smooth highlight roll-off; blown-out areas look softer than digital clipping
Richer shadows and dynamic range in black and white film
3. Edge Artifacts
If the scan includes the film border, you may see:
Sprocket holes
Film type markings like “Kodak 400TX”
Frame numbers
These are strong indicators of 35mm film origin.
4. File Metadata
Scanned images often lack typical EXIF data (camera model, lens, shutter speed, ISO, etc.).
If present, metadata might mention a scanner (e.g., Epson V600, Plustek, Nikon Coolscan), revealing its scanned-from-film origin.
Resolution may also be unusual, such as 3420 Ч 2280.
5. Halation and Bloom
Some film stocks, especially color negative film, create a soft red or orange glow around bright light sources, known as halation.
This glow is not present in purely digital images.
6. Imperfections
Scanned film images may contain:
Dust or small scratches
Fibers or specks from the scanning surface
Slight vignetting or edge softness if not scanned perfectly
7. Subject and Context
Sometimes the subject matter gives a clue:
Dated clothing, cars, or architecture- like what we see in her pictures!
A vintage aesthetic or composition style
Conclusion:
Not a single picture is less than 20 plus years old! A site fraud!
Other comments from our trained fraud detector:
-what kind of old cow puts pictures of her old wrinkled body on a sex site?
- Face of a prawn, body of a rhino, and legs of a sumo wrestler!
- Her tits look like a student driver crushed some traffic cones!
- That snatch looks so loose she if she sat on someone's face, they would be wearing a 10 gallon hat! Disgusting I know!
A true mule!
You are too old and rotten!
So quit blaming everyone but yourself i bet chuck would take you back if you left and focused your attention to your husband for once
As far as my ex is concerned, its not a question of him taking me back. I'm the one that would decide if we got back together again and at the moment, and probably for ever, I don't want him back.
Having said all of the above, I would like to say here, and publicly, that I've acted like a bitch to you Dgraff and would like to apologize.

So tell me are you paying less for groceries? Are cars less expensive? Are IPhones less expensive? How many wars did he stop? How many countries are “trembling” from his tariff debacle? How do you feel about him sending Marines to control civilians?
I can go on for ever, but, it’s wasted time. Well, enjoy your 15 min of glory because I promise you this, even if I don’t live long to see it, WE WILL BRING IT ALL BACK.
guns only have 1 trigger!
looters have it made these days, it only takes 1 to carry a color tv now. back in the 70's it took 2 or 3!
The news deflected public attention from a series of unanimous court rulings — including a Supreme Court decision — that President Donald Trump did not have the power to unilaterally detain and deport individuals to foreign prisons without a review by a judge.
If they can't do it the legal way, they'll do it illegally. They can't admit a mistake to save their lives.

Trump set to pardon reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley of fraud and tax evasion convictions
Thiefs stick together.
According to FBOP records, Todd Chrisley will be released on June 11, 2032, two years sooner than his original sentence. Julie Chrisley's sentence was reduced by 14 months and will be released in March. 23, 2028. Back in September, her request for a reduced sentence was rejected by U.S. District Judge Eleanor L. Ross.

Martha Stewart was “filled with joy” after being released ...
Martha Stewart was sentenced to five months in federal prison. She served her time at the Alderson Federal Prison Camp in West Virginia. Additionally, she was ordered to serve five months of home confinement and two years of probation.
The sentence stemmed from her conviction for lying to federal investigators and obstruction of justice in relation to her sale of ImClone stock. While initially charged with insider trading, she was ultimately convicted on the obstruction and perjury charges.
but o j simpson can knife his wife and boyfreind and get away with it scot free then write a book about how he did it.. eh, why is that right?
the sun shines on me alot.
heres the thing.
those of us that do happen to think for our selves sometime are in alignment with those others disagree with. not my fault. even if i did have a opinion that was not in alignment for the most part with Trump, it wouldn't make any difference,i would be considered a radical.
killers should get stiffer sentences than someone that is accused of fraud.
According to your logic, any person committing fraud should be pardoned.
Right?
Distance himself from maga?
Are you not aware that being in a cult simply fucks your brain up and genders it unable to take any independent decisions?
His adherence to the cult tells him that he should stick with maga even if he has to die.
He's like a heroine addict.
Exactly like this.
You're telling him to stop using drugs.
He can't.
He's an addict.
you think a fraudster should serve a life sentence but yet a killer should walk.
of course you support abortion ,killing before born so it is logical you would just consider murder a late term abortion.
and yes i do believe leo has a warped sense of what justice is.
puttting a person in jail for 12 years for getting illegal loans for 12 years, and a woman for 7, and murderers walk after a much shorter sentence or some leo type lawyer gets them off because of a undotted i, that is wrong.
You're an addict to a cult.
When they tell you "a fraudster must be pardoned because your trumpgod wants that" you'll NEVER even question that.
Never.
You accept everything your cult leader says.
