    Here come the tariffs

    Also you know why egg prices are down? We've been importing them like crazy, including buying eggs from Russia where there is no tariff to do so,.one of the few countries in the world. Weird huh?

    Farmers continue to hurt. China stopped buying us soybeans. Last time Trump started a trade war with China they did the same thing and taxpayers had to bail out the farmers. Everyone knew this would happen but Trump did it anyway. He's the dumbest president we've ever had. https://www.agweb.com/news/crops/soybeans/8-soybeans-thats-reality-some-farmers-china-remains-absent-buying

    Would be curious how you can say you're seeing lower costs when the data says different. Unless you're only buying eggs and gas, just about everything has gone up. Data don't lie, unless of course you think the data is faked.
  4. Thanks for the link to a conservative anti immigration think tank but it doesn't have anything about the billions in phones, EBT and hotels.

  6. Thats not what I'm doing. I'm refuting HT's statement that we've given billions to migrants for phones, EBT and hotels. That's false.

    Elon says that Trump is in the Epstein files.

    Trump doesn't know what he's saying. He's senile. His go to is to call any criticism of him a hoax. He's the ultimate victim.
  8. I think he was accusing me of using ask Jeeves, as an insult.
  9. The "phones" are for the alternative to detention program, started in 2004, ran by ICE starting in 2018, under Trump. And your numbers off, they obviously change. At its height it was 300k for a month, was half that in 2024. Not a billion. Try again.
  10. For NYC, the main costs were health and shelter related, not phones and EBT cards. Nice try.

    ***Wagering thread***

    Took a beating today on that Atlanta loss. Otherwise hit some unders. Hoping tenn can hang on for the 8.5
  12. You originally brought up the shelter and services program that gives phones, EBT, hotel rooms etc. While true, that program hasn't even been funded to a billion. So the claim that we're giving billions in free phones and hotels to illegals is false. Then you switched to a total cost number, created by FAIR, which is an anti immigration group, which takes into account all kinds of weird stuff like education and incarceration. You should give it up and walk away.

    Walker missed all of preseason. Was bound to have a slow start especially in a new offense. Give it time.
  14. You want to deport American citizens who disagree with you.
  15. Search engine tells me not even a billion. So you lied, right?

  17. Can't answer. Not a billion. You couldn't be any dummer, or should I say you could
