  1. Thanks, figured it was something like that not "Illegals come and get your college discounts" that the OP and Fox link suggested.
  2. I haven't looked into this but I'm sure the thread title must be misleading. The OP seems to be saying if anyone is an illegal alien in Kentucky, if they apply to attend a state university and say they are here illegally, then their college tuition will be discounted? That doesn't sound quite right to me, perhaps some information is missing from the OP.

    L.A. and nationwide ICE raids/protests

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/19/ice-agents-dodger-stadium-los-angeles Los Angeles Dodgers say they denied Ice agents entry to Dodger Stadium The Los Angeles Dodgers said on Thursday they denied US immigration enforcement agents access to the parking lot at Dodger Stadium earlier in the day. “This morning, ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots,” the team said in a post on X. “They were denied entry to the grounds by the organization. Tonight’s game will be played as scheduled.” But Ice said in a response to the Dodgers tweet that its agents “were never there”, and Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary for public affairs at the DHS, said in a statement that “this had nothing to do with the Dodgers. CBP vehicles were in the stadium parking lot very briefly, unrelated to any operation or enforcement.”
  4. So is the OP thread title (who should Donald appoint as Shah of Iran?) showing support for Trump making a regime change in Iran? Didn't Trump make a campaign promise of "No New Wars"?

    Happy Juneteenth everyone

    Amazing how this thread and the one for Black History Month always brings out the forum racists and bigots, just like moths to a flame.
  6. Guess who bumped a 15 year old political thread?

    Two Dem lawmakers shot, one dead in MN

    Yes, you did, you said (paraphrasing) that exposing himself before men instead of women made it "OK" or better. That isn't what I said or suggested and you were arguing that is what I said or was implying, which was a mischaracterization (aka Straw Man).
  8. I can see a distinction between the two situations and why in a group that includes a trans, it might not sit well with everyone. And I am not confortable saying "hi guys!" to a group of women even though many consider it a "gender neutral" term.

    Trump Recession Thread (aka Trumpcession)

    In another thread this claim was made: "Hourly wages up first five months of Trump. Highest in 60 years." Figured that probably wasn't right. From Grok, take it with a grain of salt. https://twitter.com/grok/status/1935726427493818486 "How is US wage growth today compared to past years?" U.S. wage growth in 2025 is positive but not exceptional compared to past years. Real hourly earnings rose 1.4% to 1.8% annually, solid but below historical highs. From 1948-1973, wages grew ~3.5% yearly, far outpacing recent rates. Post-1973, growth slowed, with real wages stagnating for decades. Claims of "best in 60 years" likely overstate 2025's performance, as 1960s data shows stronger gains. Inflation and inequality also limit real income growth for many. https://

    He is still too busy going after the brown people, he will probably antagonize the black folks next year on this date.
  11. Oh my. I am guessing bringing back lead paint is also on the Trump Administration "to do" list.

    You mischaracterized what I said and argued against that (aka Straw Man). I never said or suggested what LBJ did was acceptable or more acceptable because it was done in front of men and not women. And, no I didn't Google that, someone had repeated that information on the PSF some years back (and it is not something one forgets).
  13. How about we all refrain from speculation and snarky comments until we know what is really going on here?
  14. I am not sure he was making that connection...it was in his stream of consciousness style with perhaps no transition between those two subjects.

    Notice How There Are Only Eleven Political Threads

    13 of the 14 most recent threads at the top of the page of this forum were all started by Bunny. Aren't you all glad you are seeing that instead of something political?
  16. https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1935407232407011573 (with link to CBS article) Cuts to FEMA's storm prep program hammer communities that voted for Trump: A CBS News investigation found two-thirds of counties that have lost funding from this FEMA program supported Trump in the 2024 election.

    Typo corrected. Thanks.

    No, Straw Man, I didn't say or suggest that it was OK.
  20. Completely. I don't think that it is too much to ask that someone be called by their preferred name or pronoun (that is an issue of basic respect that everyone should be accorded).
