  1. Relax bruh it sounded like you were blaming biden so I was just asking why. I assign some blame to Biden, some to trump as well. Right now more to trump as his policies have directly raised inflation.

    Official Gavin Newsom Thread

    Trump sent his masked gestapo to stand around and intimidate Newsome outside of his speech yesterday. America doesn't like totalitarianism.

    Trump and the National Guard Thread

    It's crazy what is going on. The dea chief is now the mpd chief of police? What? Whose running the dea? How does he have any idea how to run a city police department? Then you got these national guards people who are doing stop and frisks? They're not trained for this. Who is doing their jobs now, many of which are police officers. It's bananas.

    Trump and the National Guard Thread

    2019 Bro doesn't read his own articles. I suppose this led to the drop in crime in 2025? Or that was other lies right?
  5. I'd be curious @WhiteWonder what of Biden's actions you blame for inflation. I can point out the free COVID money. Also blame Trump for that. Otherwise it was COVID, right? What did I miss?

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    If it's all over the news, surely you can share 1 article, right? Just one? As far as NATO, the 5% spending is a 2035 goal. It's not in place now. Trump didn't make it happen.
  9. You probably know this but the president doesn't set the federal funds rate, and it did get lowered 3 times in Q4 2024. And as you said it was high to fight inflation. So blaming Biden for mortgage rates doesn't make sense. The fed has paused further drops because of tariffs, so that is the case to blame Trump. We can also look at construction costs, up in 2025 due to higher material cost, thanks to tariffs.
  10. Mortgage rates started going up as a result of inflation and monetary policy. I believe they would come down if the fed lowers rates, which it has refused to do to date due to the inflation risk of the tariffs. I also believe that mortgage rates are high due to the deficit.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    I asked you for evidence that companies left and are now returning or investing when they wouldn't before. If there is a comical amount, provide me some, any, please? Of course tariffs are raising revenue, but it's our money, it's a tax on us, it's not coming from foreign countries. It's not 5% now He doesn't get credit because it didn't happen. And I have TDS?

    Another month of controlled inflation

    Ugh. Who would that be?

    Wrong again, Ukraine never asked us for boots on the ground. They want to buy our weapons. You want to cut them off so they can get slaughtered.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    Trump talked about pulling out of NATO. He doesn't believe in Europe or Allies, has nothing to do with funding, because he just sent our defense budget over a trillion. NATO was increasing their spending starting in 2014 and I provided the data that proves it. NATO is not at 5% and likely will never be. There is no credit to be given here. Agreed, we do not live in the same world.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    Terrible analogy considering Ukraine didn't want to fight Russia, they were invaded. A more apt analogy would be your friend gets attacked by a thug and asks for your help, so you offer to sell him your baseball bat so he can defend himself, but you don't even want to do that anymore.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    bruh, Putin invaded Ukraine twice, 2014 and 2022. Trump was NOT president either of those times. I never claimed he invaded under Trump. Get a hold of yourself. As far as corruption goes, no they are not even in the top 10. Russia is more corrupt. Even so, that's not an excuse for the citizens to be raped and murdered. What's wrong with you? Suggesting that Ukraine's best option is to surrender is exactly what Putin says.

    You're not even making sense any more.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    Here is the data. Look at the first graph, you will see it go up after 2014, the drop during Trump's term when he claimed credit for the rise, then again it shoots up in 2023. https://www.nato.int/nato_static_fl2014/assets/pdf/2023/7/pdf/230707-def-exp-2023-en.pdf Can't argue with the data.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    The point is, he doesn't respect Trump, or fear him. I'd be curious as to why you think Putin waited until 2022 to invade Ukraine. Also it's not just about flags or social media. A sovereign country was invaded and brutally attacked. You might not care about it but many people do. It's not right to think they only care about waving a flag.

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    Actually if you look at the data, the NATO countries started increasing their defense spending twice. Once after Putin invaded Crimea in 2014, and after the Ukraine Invasion in 2022. Trump didn't have anything to do with it.
  21. A Pennsylvania man has been arrested after allegedly killing his own father, before displaying his decapitated head in a gruesome YouTube video while spouting right-wing conspiracy theories. In the YouTube video, Mohn is seen wearing gloves holding his father's head in a plastic bag. Later the head can be seen in a cooking pot. Mohn says his father was a federal employee for 20 years and refers to him as a traitor, calling for the death of all federal officials, attacking President Joe Biden's administration, the Black Lives Matter movement, the LGBTQ community and Antifa activists. YouTube removed the video, which is more than 14 minutes long, hours after it was posted. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/pa-man-arrested-decapitating-father-youtube-video-rcna136509

    Trump goes to Russia to meet Putin

    You're repeating Trump again, not presenting facts. You did this yesterday with the tariffs too. Trump talked about withdrawing from NATO in 2017. Russia interfered in the 2016 election to try and elect Trump. Both facts.
  23. I reject your premise and I reject your theory that skin color has anything to do with propensity to commit crime.
  24. See this is where you are wrong. The controls for race were added and didn't support your theory. Feel free to believe what you believe, but just know there is no science behind it, it's all anecdotal. Don't lean on science to support your racism.
