The Real timschochet

There are always going to be thugs willing to join the stormtroopers.

One great thing Newsom is doing: hiring all of the CDC officials that Trump and RFK Jr fired: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/us/california-newsom-cdc-trump.html California will be healthy. California will be prepared for the next pandemic. The rest of you can take your chances with the wackjob pseudo doctors that took their place.

I know you don’t respond to me but I had to comment on this post anyhow because it’s so ignorant and so emblematic of conservative attitudes these days. You ignore the science. Ignore the American Pyschological Association and all of the doctors, medical boards, who have almost unanimously offered evidence on this issue. Sure there are always outliers and my friend here @jerryskids is eager to bring them up, but they are few and far between and basically considered kooks by the medical community. What this basically comes down to is that you and so many other conservatives are grossed out. That’s the bottom line and it informs all your thinking.

Starting in 2027 we’re going to have a Democratic majority in House and perhaps Senate. Then in 2029 we’re going to have a Democratic President as well. I believe it will be the strongest Democratic majority in this country since 1933. It won’t last; Dems will find a way to fock it all up of course. It’s not like they have better long term solutions to our problems than Republicans do. But maybe at least they can undo some of the damage of the last decade.

To your first point you always cite the cost without considering the benefit. I have shown you again and again that they are a net economic benefit to California and every other state. To your second point, your “history” of immigration is not based on facts at all, and it’s revisionist, relying on sources that the Southern Poverty Law Center have deemed as racist and hate groups.

The contradiction is yours not his. Exceptions can always be made for public health, and he was correct to label your insistence on the word “never” as pedantic. However if you’re in favor of the principle that all medical decisions should be private affairs, then logically you should be opposed to this bill.

His arguments tend to be much more coherent than yours because he backs them up with facts.

This will be overturned eventually. The conservative obsession with transgender issues is unhealthy.

Republicans are committing political suicide here. But they’re too committed to hating ACA to give in. This is going to be ugly.

Do you really agree 100%? Honestly I don’t believe you. I’ve read plenty of your posts over the years and I don’t think you truly share Trump’s bizarre economic ideology. But you say you do because it’s a form of shoving it to liberals, which sadly for MAGA has become the first priority above the well being of our nation.

It always cracks me up when conservatives complain that liberals are big spenders…

So let’s discuss this “warrior dividend”: there are 1.4 million Americans serving in our military. At $1,776.00 per person, that’s around 2.5 billion. The U.S. debt is 38 trillion. It goes up by 1.8 trillion every year. Also, isn’t spending money a decision by Congress?

Holding back having sticker prices truthfully reflect the new amounts they are paying.

You’re running out of material.

Doesn’t matter. I never wrote it. Not something I believe in.

Never. Challenge you to show otherwise.

If the Supreme Court overturns the tariffs, Trump will have to surrender all the billions he’s claimed to have made. On the other hand if the Supreme Court upholds the tariffs, inflation will explode: companies have been holding back in the hope that they are temporary.

There won’t be any excuse. Trump will not blame AI, or Biden, or anyone. He will simply insist that there is no recession, that things are better than ever, and anyone who tells you differently is lying. He is completely divorced from reality.

Challenge you to produce a post from me, ever, in favor of defunding police.

He just seems so upset that nobody is giving him credit. Why don’t they love him?

It was high something. Just about every “fact” he offered was false. But what I’ve learned over the years is that folks like you seem to love being lied to. I have no idea why but I’m glad I’m not you.

Your response is even worse now.

Ooh ripping me on my weight again. Nice one. But since that picture of me on the Internet, I’ve lost about 40 pounds thanks to a combo of Monjaro, better food choices, and exercise. I still have about 20 to go but things are moving in the right direction. For now.

But you obviously care about what the Koran says. Why is that?

The aliens are out there but won’t make themselves known to us until we conquer the technology of light speed. Thats part of the Prime Directive.
