    Trump regrets not seizing voting machines

    Someone should do a wellness check on this chick.
  4. Cole, 30, from Woodbridge, Virginia, faces charges for building and placing the undetonated devices on January 5, 2021, near the RNC and DNC offices. He admitted believing the 2020 election was stolen and targeting both parties to make a statement. His attorney says Cole voted for Trump twice and plans to argue that Trump's January 20, 2025, pardon for January 6-related offenses applies, even though a judge once called the case 'January 6 adjacent.' Prosecutors say he confessed fully, and a court will decide if the sweeping pardon reaches explosives planted nearby.
  5. Since Strike doesn't know how to embed an x link, I did it for all you It's definitely an odd post. Since I believe in facts, data and the truth and not rando x posts, I decided to look into the claim. First thing I did was to validate that the change in median list price from January 2025 to January 2026 did decrease by 7.3%. This claim could not be supported. https://www.spyglassrealty.com/blog/austin-housing-market.html Key developments through 2025: Price correction continues: Median prices declined 1-4% year-over-year depending on timeframe and source So that is false. Next I did an AI query on what metro areas have the largest illegal alien populations. Results: Metro Area Estimated Population New York City Metro ~1.1 Million Los Angeles Metro 900,000 Houston Metro 600,000 Dallas-Fort Worth 500,000 Chicago Metro 450,000 So I really don't know how Austin got to be number 1 there. Seeing that the data points are clearly false, there is no need to entertain the conclusion being made that mass deportations are lowering property values. I mean an idiot can recognize that illegals are not scooping up $450k homes in Austin, nor are they now selling them because they are deported. How do you sell a home after getting deported anyway? I digress. In conclusion, let this be a lesson to anyone that believes everything they see on right wing social media. Hopefully @Strike learned his lesson. Edited to Add: It occured to me that they could be talking about the metro areas with the largest % of illegals, so I ran that... Metro Area Estimated Share of Population Las Vegas, NV ~7.5% – 8.2% Houston, TX ~6.8% – 7.1% Austin, TX ~5.9% – 6.4% Miami, FL ~5.5% – 6.1% Dallas-Fort Worth ~5.2% – 5.8% Austin does show up at #3, but none of the other ones do. Data just seems wrong, at the least unsourced and therefore unbelievable.

    Here come the tariffs

    Since you called me out I'll respond, even though you aren't mature enough to respond to me, but I know you will read this. I never said the economy was doomed, this is your RDS. What I said was that it will cause inflation, and it has. Has it caused as much inflation as I thought? No. I can explain why... 1) Trump backed off the comical level tariffs like the 150% on China and the tariffs on things we don't make like coffee and bananas. That has helped bring those specific prices down. 2) Corporations went on an importing spree before the tariffs started with inventories lasting for most of 2025. 3) Corporations have eaten much of these tariffs. This one blew me away, but it happened. Trump pressured CEOs not to pass it through and many bent the knee. 4) Several elements of the economy have slowed which has naturally brought down inflation even with higher prices. Less demand has limited the impact of higher prices. I thought we would be between 3 and 4 by now so I was wrong on this. What does 2026 look like? 1) Tariffs could disappear any day now via SCOTUS which would be good and invalidate any points below. 2) Pre Tariff inventories have been depleted and corporations will have no choice now but to pass more and more of the tax onto consumers. 3) A new fed chair will drop rates which will cause more investment and higher inflation. So assuming 1 doesn't happen, I believe 2 and 3 will drive inflation higher during this year. We'll see...

    Trump regrets not seizing voting machines

    After Jan 6, during the impeachment, McConnell voted not guilty in an attempt to save face with his base but at the same time hoping that the new Biden admin would hold him accountable, or that the events were so politically bad that it would end Trump's career forever. Then Merrick Garland, so played the prosecutions for similar reasons, didn't want to make democrats looks bad and rally the trump base, and at the same time just hoping that he would go away. Listen, and understand! That Trump is out there. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead.

    That was the strategy that got us on the situation we are in now.
  9. Should we talk about the authoritarian measures of his second term? Looks like I was right and it wasn't just TDS.

    Do you support invasion and annexation of Greenland?

    You didn't even vote in the poll. Scared?
  12. In an interview, the president said he should have ordered the National Guard to take the machines to find evidence of fraud, but added that the Guard might not have had the sophistication to do so. The statement also came as he has continued his attacks on digital voting machines, saying that he wants to “lead a movement” to get rid of them altogether in advance of this year’s midterm elections. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/11/us/trump-voting-machines-2020-election.html Trump knows he's going to lose the midterms. He knows he's going to be impeached after losing the election. He's said both. He's also said he would like to cancel the midterms. Magas will say he's just trolling, he supports democracy and anyone who suggest this has TDS. Smart people listen to what he's said and see what he's done in the past and know this is a strong possibility.

    I said that you called it the art of the deal, and you were wrong. Dummy.
