Greenland makes a lot of military/strategic sense, to help surround Russia (Greenland is 2K miles closer than the US, straight line over the Arctic). It's also a comparable distance but different angle from China. I don't know if we'll acquire it, and we already have a Space Force / NORAD base there (Pituffik). I heard somebody describe what's going on now as the closest thing we've had to a monarch, but only for two more weeks. The combination of Trump being bombastic, NOT being the actual POTUS, and Biden being basically dead, allow Trump to say and do just about anything he wants, and the world is, as the Lefties here say, "bending the knee." But come 1/20, he'll be the POTUS, and he can't be as Trumpian, because he'll actually have authority to do stuff. We'll see how it plays out.

These winds are not the Santa Ana winds; they are something else because they are hitting us as well (although not nearly as bad, yet anyway). We have had a drought as well, even for a desert. It hadn't rained here in months until... ... I was going to type the above this morning, but I had a kitten on my lap so I just thought about it. A few minutes later I looked outside, and it was drizzling. Not much, but when you've had zero for so long, it seemed like God had answered a small prayer. The coming 4-6 weeks are one of our two "rainy" seasons, hopefully we get some because we've been severely lacking.

I love her, she is so funny... long ago there were funny comediennes... Lucille Ball is probably the GOAT, but later we had Carol Burnett, Vicki Lawrence, Madeline Kahn. But in the past decade or two, I can't think of any besides Glaser. Maybe because she is not PC, and talks about things besides how men suck? Also I think she is hot, especially for 40.

I also don't deny that 3 is less than 13, and two of those three are Commerce and Treasury. The rest are ambassadors. You are just following your Leftist MSM masters. Good boy! Answer my question about Commerce and Treasury first, before I continue responding to your pablum. Oh, and congrats on 1K posts on yet another alias, Gutter!

If you are going to spout nonsense, I don't blame you for not providing a link. https://abcnews.go.com/US/trump-tapped-unprecedented-13-billionaires-top-administration-roles/story?id=116872968 Most of the rest of your 13 are ambassadors. So two, maybe three if Linda McMahon is one. For the other two: do you not want successful people in charge of Treasury and Commerce? Perhaps you'd prefer a Leftie academic with zero real business experience making those calls?

Care to point to your posts during the previous regime about this?

You know that Kamala got >$1B in donations in a fewo weeks, right? To deny that the vast majority of big money is on the Left is laughable. Sorry it took a Trump victory for you to recognize what has been happening for a long time. Also, part of their club? That is the definition of a Leftie pseud like yourself.

Muslim migration/culture is not a problem in Vancouver...

Yeah, I didn't add anything this year, I was too busy and just happy to recreate previous years. Next year I want to add some stuff. It's hard to rally tho, when my neighbors aren't doing it.

Where I don't think we've clarified is: we both think each other is completely wrong, but I'm willing to discuss it, whereas you want to suppress discussion. But to keep the discussion going: why don't you think it's worth discussing the potential involvement of Antifa and/or the FBI on 1/6? Please don't say the 1/6 Commission, that was a traveshamockery.

My last house was that size, but we've since downsized to about 2500 sq ft. Regardless, I've always enjoyed setting up the lights myself. They in no way look professional, but I look out every night and morning and think yeah, I did that. I'm on a cul de sac with 8 houses where I'm basically the only person who does lights. The house next door to me keeps their lights up all year -- they change them from white to multi-colored during the Christmas season. The house across the street has one faux tree display out front. Otherwise, nothing. Several of the folks have second houses that they go to during the holidays, which I understand, but it's a bummer that there aren't more lights here. Regarding the OP, the Catholic Christmas season goes through this weekend where we celebrate the baptism of Jesus. I mentioned in another thread that we are heading to Detroit this Saturday for a memorial service, so I'll get down what I can Thursday/Friday, but probably just turn off the power to the lights before we leave and deal with it next week.

Fixed for you.

I figured the "Trump is a narcissit" would come up. I've said it plenty of times: https://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/search/?&q=narcissist&author=jerryskids&search_and_or=or Most of those are about Trump. Whatabout wut?

Sorry, but so much wrong here. I think it can be summarized with "rejected the truthful MSM reporting and chose to believe in pure fabrications." That, to paraphrase @jonmx, is the stuff of bootlickers. I think where you are incorrect is in conflating your opinions with fact. It is absolutely reasonable to speculate on the supposed involvement of Antifa and the FBI in the Jan 6 riot. That doesn't mean it happened, it means it is fair to speculate. The MSM's response is to call people insurrectionists and other dehumanizing labels. Sorry, but I don't find that compelling. The Jan 6 Committee was an embarrassing joke that wouldn't know an objective investigation if it said hello and slapped them in the face. There IS a deep state, the MSM either is complicit or is gaslit by them, and in either case they gaslight and strongarm people into following their message.

I don't want to go too far down this sidetrack, but I'll say that IMO they weren't universally shot down. I've described multiple times, as a systems expert, that if your system is not designed to catch fraud, you can't catch fraud. And most of the trump lawsuits were dismissed on standing, not facts. Many of them also were based around recounts, which always struck me as a diving catch attempt. Most likely, Biden won fair and square through a combo of the general public being sick of the 24/7 negative info from the MSM on Trump, and the negative impact of Covid including the intentional delay of the vax release by TDS forces. To fix an election here, you don't need to do widespread cheating, but rather surgical acts in close swing states. I view it as "don't hate the player, hate the game." In 2024, Republicans took steps to minimize a lot of the above system problems, and Trump won quite handily. Is that the sole reason he won? Probably not. But it helped with the final count.

I mean, I guess. But if I was making $200K a year, I wouldn't offer some chick $50K. The whole thing strikes me as Bayless thinking me might have crossed a line (which it appears he did), and trying to buy his way out of it, while getting the sex he wanted, because he seems like a narcissistic ass.

To me you are making the point of the Right. - We should be able to discuss questions about the election and Sleepy Joe's 81M votes without being shut down by the MSM and Big Tech with dehumanizing labels of "election denier$#@!". - Similarly, we should be able to discuss Antifa and FBI participation, and in some cases lack thereof, in the events of 1/6, and how the 1/6 committee was a kangaroo court vs. a pursuit of truth. - I'll add for Covid that we should be able to discuss the idiocy of restricting outdoor activities, and masking babies and parents of babies, and keeping schools closed long past any real concerns for danger to children, so that we could sacrifice those children for a teacher's union who had bought the authorities.

Nice link let alone description, tard. Amen thanks.

Good post Community notes are a much better way to drive correct information than the previous model, which was the Feds browbeating sites like Twitter to moderate as they want them to. I'm surprised I need to say this to you. Also, Gutter's OP asserted that Musk turned X into a MAGA echo chamber. Rather, by opening discourse and providing community notes, Lefties like Gutter were butt hurt that they lost their Leftie echo chamber, and many took their ball and went home.

I love that joke! Also, Skip has made enough to pay $1.5M for some trim? Guess I need a job spouting sports nonsense; heck, I do it here for free!

My wife yesterday said that her boss told her she was raised Catholic, but in college tried some other churches including a non-denominational one. She was turned off by it because of their disdain for Catholicism and, frankly, and other organized religion. Not all such churches are cults, but a lot of them are, including @weepaws Small churches need to make money, and they don't have the long history and support of a large, established worldwide organization. So they teach their sheep that theirs is the only path to salvation, and that all other forms of Christianity are bad. Can't have the sheep taking their money elsewhere, can they? Weepaws thinks Jesus would approve of his behavior toward other expressions of Christianity. He doesn't truly understand. He can quote the Bible though, so he's got that going for him.

Fascinating compare/contrast between costs in Canada vs. here. And Canada is what many aspire to be, politically. We'll just tax the rich to pay for everything, that always works! Love that Polievre guy, I hope for Canada's sake that they vote in his party so that they can name him the PM. At least that's how I think it works i parliamentary systems.

I'd rather laser focus on you thinking police officers were killed that day. Where do you get your news from?

Which police officers were killed? Rusty is Captain Informed today.
