    PASSED!

    And that's a wrap.

    Congrats Republicans you got enough people to vote for you to take away their healthcare and give the money to billionaires.  Impressive move.

    This was your post

    You too?  No cuts to Medicaid? Seriously?

    and this is your back pedal. Cuts the Medicaid were never in question.

    I guess you telling us that there is no language that takes healthcare away from Americans and you made the whole thing up?

    Today the stock market had its worst day… since the last time Trump was President. IIRC the two biggest point drops in US market history have been under Trump.

    Mexico’s bourse shot up, wouldn’t surprise me if Toronto’s did as well.

    I’m honestly glad to hear it. I believe I saw something like $3.5 trillion in market value lost today.

    People who are familiar with the stock markets view this as a buying opportunity.

    Remarkable. & what sector do you see as a good opportunity for large caps right now? Certainly not retail, tech, finance or oil & gas, but what are your thoughts? 
     

    The CDM, TOR & EU bourses did fine btw.

    When was the last time congress declared war?

    The last time the United States formally declared war, using specific terminology, on any nation was in 1942, when war was declared against Axis-aligned Hungary, Bulgaria, and Romania, because President Franklin Roosevelt thought it was improper to engage in hostilities against a country without a formal declaration of war. Since then, every American president has used military force without a declaration of war.[3]

    That isn't exactly what happened. From a Google search:

    The Massachusetts National Guard did provide logistical support, such as lodging and dining facilities at the Cape Cod base, but did not transport the migrants from Martha's Vineyard. 

     

    They loaded them on buses and the buses transported them.

    A lot of liberals missed out on a stock buying opportunity during the recent dip because they took their financial advice from the mainstream media and  their democratic leaders. I posted, on this board, that it was a buying opportunity and of course I was immediately put down by the lefties on the board. I did not reply.

    and now they are doubling down on their ignorance.

    It's almost surreal they go so overboard on this stuff and fail to realize they are simply making fools of themselves doing so. 

    And then they double down on their stupidity.

    Maybe Trump could do his "sweet 16" bracket of 16 year olds he met on Epstein Island.

    Instead of naming long shots sleeper picks they would be called roofied picks or Bill Cosby After School Specials.

    But Trump sent out a comment about the NFL draft and libtards like squid guy and mdc guy are whining that Trump is wasting time as president with his comment.

    How much dumber can liberals possibly get? Serious question...

     

    I remember when Barack Obama showed up on ESPN, every year, to show and analyze his NCAA basketball tournament bracket and the left loved it.

    April is the third month in a row egg prices have gone up, Thanks dictator trump.  

    The ninth Commandment: Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. Shame Amen

    Egg prices, which hit a record high of $8.17 per dozen in early March 2025, have since dropped rapidly to $4.90 per dozen within a week, marking one of the sharpest declines in recent history.

    This is all so stupid! Isolate the old and the weak and let everyone else live their normal lives. Their chance of dying from this is very small. Most of the people that need protection are the least productive members of our society so life goes on as normal. We don’t have to stop the world.

    Yes there were overreactions but it was also a time when we had a lot of unknowns and a lot of changing information.
     

     

    BS! Many of us knew exactly what was going on. Just think how different the world would be today if we had just taken my advice.

    Liberals have no problem with legality. It’s conservatives that seem to have a problem with it on a regular basis. First they were OK with police being violently attacked at the U.S. Capitol. Next they voted for a convicted felon to be President of the United States. Now they approve when that same felon continually violates the laws and the Constitution; they cheer him on. 
    Conservatives obviously have no respect for our laws.

    @The Real timschochet is just your typical Liberal. If they say it enough, they believe it.

    Yeah, he saved it by doubling the contribution rate. BFD

    Where are you getting this doubling figure from? Do you have a link? Did you know the original Social Security tax was 1 percent?
     

    Speeded up payroll tax increases for 116 million workers this decade. The payroll tax, now 6.7 percent each for employers and employees, rises to 7 percent in 1984, 7.05 percent in 1985, 7.15 percent in 1986, 7.51 percent in 1988 and 7.65 percent in 1990. The 1984, 1988 and 1989 hikes are additional but only employers pay the 1984 increase; workers get an automatic tax credit.
