Conservative media is all atizzy suggesting that funding for security details for congresscritters needs to be forthcoming. That the rhetoric needs to be "toned down". Naturally MAGA republicans forget that Trump just cancelled security for John Bolton. This after a $20 million bounty was placed in 2024 on Iranians who had targeted Bolton for assassination.

A school shooting nearby in Colorado as well Perhaps some are unaware as to who Charlie Kirk is and what he stands for. In a podcast of his "In October, he invited veteran white supremacist Steve Sailer, whose bonafides include writing for overt white nationalist publications including VDare and the Unz Review, on his podcast. During their interview, Kirk called Sailer his favorite “noticer”—a word frequently used in internet conservative spaces as a euphemism for individuals willing to publicly draw bigoted conclusions linking race and criminality. Sailer did exactly this during their conversation, insinuating that Black people commit crimes because of innate characteristics: “Blacks tend to commit murder about 10 times as often per capita as whites… it’s not just all explained by poverty.” “Steve, what you’re doing is so important,” Kirk gushed. In January, Kirk hosted Curtis Yarvin, a neo-reactionary, anti-egalitarian who has described slavery as “a natural human relationship” and argued the biological roots of intelligence vary between populations. (He has tried to walk such claims back.) While Kirk seemed uncomfortable when Yarvin’s expressed his affinity for monarchy, he mostly remained effusive and praised his guest for “thought-provoking ideas” that “I love.”

Here is another "cartoon" that was in Epstein's 50th birthday book author unknown. Just in case anyone else needs reasons as to why Trump is objecting to more disclosures. Congress is going out of this solar system in order to distract attention from these files. They have started hearings on UFO objects.

More properly it would be Netanyahu or the Mossad. IDF members have been against many of the recent actions directed by the far right nutjobs of the current government.

Good one as I could think of none. But there are a couple in the Arab world that govern with absolute authority. MBS certainly is a role model for Trump.

Some people are glad: "The Trump administration is quietly dismantling efforts by the Internal Revenue Service to shut down a slew of aggressive tax shelters used by America’s biggest multinational companies and wealthiest people. The administration, bowing to pressure from industry groups, right-wing activists and congressional Republicans, is quickly rolling back several I.R.S. law enforcement efforts, including one aimed at a lucrative tax shelter used by companies like Occidental Petroleum and AT&T. The I.R.S. crackdown was projected to raise more than $100 billion over 10 years." Below the US corruption ranking.

Agree, pay at less than minimum wage. Labour laws don't apply because they can't complain. Poor working conditions that no other citizens will tolerate. Hence the huge number of unfilled jobs. Pay taxes but not able to collect benefits. Agra corporations reap the benefits in excess profits.(and golf course owners) Yet MAGA objects because of Brown skin.

Yuk! and thanks for pointing that out.

So you think that little nugget to the left of centre is the one? There will be many more loads this year and has been many so far.

Hold on here Trump "I never knew Epstein".

That is why VAT and GST taxes are so popular, 175 countries in the world popular.

Exactly, but add mean spirited chaos. If the chaos can cause suffering all the better.

“’I love the smell of deportations in the morning,’” Trump wrote on his social media site. “Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR.” Trump is such a poet.

One of the main reasons for antagonistic narcissism is childhood trauma, such as neglect, emotional abuse, or inconsistent caregiving. These early experiences can lead to deep feelings of insecurity and a heightened need to protect themselves by putting others down. This will help to explain Its an article from People magazine that provides an excellent overview of what shaped Trump's fatally flawed personality. From the best selling book Too Much and Never Enough Mary Trump's book. "Mary writes: "Donald's problem was that the combative, rigid persona he developed in order to shield him from the terror of his early abandonment, along with his having been made to witness his father's abuse of Freddy, cut him off from real human connection." From this view, Too Much and Never Enough traces the "parallel lines" of Freddy's deterioration despite his nominal place as the family scion and the rise of his younger brother Donald, here described as a brash, boundary-less bully — not so much greedy as a black hole, warping any rule or restraint around him."

Nordic countries: The political parties respect each other and trust between them and the government is a given. The people trust the government. America. The political parties are at war and one party the MAGA-republican party teaches that the government is evil.That it can't be trusted and tries to use the justice system against its citizens. The parties use the tax system to create winners and losers.

Moron is an understatement 18% of needed workforce is met. Yet the MAGA world is hiring new stormtroopers instead. "The United States is facing a critical shortage of skilled workers, particularly in STEM fields. The country is expected to need around 1 million additional STEM professionals between 2023 and 2033, with tech job growth outpacing the overall workforce, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. To fill this gap, the H-1B visa program, established in 1990, has been pivotal, allowing U.S. businesses to temporarily hire foreign workers in specialized fields. Employers and immigration attorneys petition for the visas on behalf of the foreign workers. Congress set a cap on the program of 65,000 visas annually, plus 20,000 additional visas for foreign workers holding advanced degrees from U.S. colleges. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services reported it received 470,000 H-1B petitions for fiscal year 2025, indicating continued demand from businesses despite the challenges for both employers and workers of navigating the visa process."

You As compared to respectful disagreement.

Be it your debates with Joe or the substance in this thread. Sometimes your objectivity drifts off into Trumpish pissing.contests.

Just be careful when you visit those sites. You have to go under the diaper, up the anus while avoiding the undigested bits of Big Macs. Royal contamination is everywhere.

A different opinion is not a lie.

Well for US corporations that donate to Trump: "Amazon donates $1m to Trump’s inaugural fund as tech cozies up to president-elect" . They can set aside that idea of employing US workers: "Amazon will reportedly soon have as many robots working in its warehouses as it does humans..... According to a report in The Wall Street Journal. Amazon has deployed over 1 million robots in its warehouses. Roughly 75% of the e-commerce giant's global deliveries "are assisted in some way by robotics," the Journal said." For Hyundai: Hyundai unleashes Atlas robots in Georgia plant as part of $21B US automation push Atlas robot pictured below: Because of the lack of training of new ICE hires. Its rumoured that many of the reported arrests at the Georgia plant were in fact atlas robots.

Survivalists have long dreamed of a day when their prepping and AR-15s can be deployed against the evil government. A second American revolution. Well its happened in Washington D.C. Grand juries made up of ordinary freedom fighters are refusing to indict those prosecuted by the King's courts. "In what could be read as a citizens’ revolt, ordinary people serving on grand juries have repeatedly refused in recent days to indict their fellow residents who became entangled in either the president’s immigration crackdown or his more recent show of force. It has happened in at least seven cases — including three times for the same defendant." This despite the fact that juries are force fed whatever stories the prosecutors want to come up with. Stories like the defendant has insulted the looks, the intelligence and the size of the King's hands. Or even called him a Limp Caudillo! One freedom fighter, himself on the brink of starvation because of the King's bad economy. Threw his subway sandwich at a storm trooper and was charged with felonious assault. Three times juries refused to indict him. Now his image of resistance is spreading to the walls of the city. All of which infuriated the King causing him to throw a half eaten Royal Mac hamburger against the great hall of the royal palace. The rest of the world has seen a crack of light under the castle's drawbridge. There is a fight against the King from his subjects.

Its all a part of the King's calculation to free up more workers for ICE deployments.

Irrespective of undocumented workers on the job site. Actions like that will certainly send the message to any international corporation wanting to build a US plant. That every law slighted or fired worker could result in storm troopers at the door. Or perhaps Hyundai failed to pay the obligatory bribes to the Orange King at 1600 Pennsylvania ave.

Plausible deniability.
