    Public Land Sale - yes or no

    Well, that's not going to generate much revenue for the feds... biggest use for some of the land in AZ is probably mining. Some company just bought land east of Phoenix for a copper mine; the Apaches claim it was an ancient burial ground (the tribes always do this), but remarkably, the 9th Circuit narrowly approved it. Mining, of course, can come with some significant environmental concerns, so I hope this is monitored closely. But, we do need more copper.

    Public Land Sale - yes or no

    Great idea! Right after Trump allows the TikTok ban. Well... The Feds own over 38% of AZ. That's absurd. I'd need to see what's planned for AZ sale before I render an opinion. Also, looking at the map of eligible land in the OP link: I wonder how much an Aleutian Island would cost? That would be better than, say, buying a star IMO.
  3. Long lines explain it! Not the shotgunning of ballots out to anyone, dead or alive, who ever registered to vote. Or unguarded ballot boxes.
  4. I'm old enough to remember when all of the Lefties here were equally if not more concerned when Saint Barack the Omniscient ordered the murder of Osama Bin Laden, the leader of the group who had actually performed the largest act of terror on US soil, and they did it in Pakistan, which has nuclear weapons.
  5. Sell your SSN, possibly on ebay or Etsy? I admit it was hard to keep track of all of the things Elon was going to do to make money off of you.

    NYC Mayor Race

    I presume the beret is from the Guardian Angels, which it says he founded. I don't know if a Republican can win there though. Too many people just vote for a D.

    NYC Mayor Race

    My daughter lives there, and she's fairly leftie, but even she recognizes that Zohran is more than a little whackadoodle. It's hard to believe that that city would elect a full-on defund the police socialist, but it looks quite possible.
  8. I'm not a legal expert, nor have I read the entire ruling. That being said, Roberts being Roberts, I presume that the ruling is as limited as he could make it: laws prohibiting medical transing of children are OK.
  9. There is a paywall; did the tech bros say why? Is it the same source that told them that Elon was stealing your 401K?
  10. I'm trying to have a conversation. You are trying to get some sort of win over something I never said.
  11. Brianna is right: true trans people with gender dysphoria are going to lose their medical care and legal protections because the Woke Left made trans a hipster social contagion.
  12. As a Suns fan, I am so happy about this. I heard that the Rockets included 5 2nd round picks as well. KD is a luxury weapon for a championship-ready team, which isn't the Suns. If they could somehow figure out how to unload Beal, I might splooge on my keyboard$#@!

    Pretty Good NBA Finals Game We Got Going On Now!

    Bummer about the Haliburton achilles injury. Hope it isn't too serious. For this game, Indiana is holding their own without Tyrese but, it looks like without a miracle comeback, it's not going to happen.
  14. That wasn't my question. RIF. Do you agree that Iran was developing nuclear weapons?
  15. Again non-responsive. Iran is developing nuclear bombs, yes or no?
  16. Whew, thank goodness if true! They can continue to pursue their peaceful nuclear power plants.
  17. Wife and I talked about this. JD seems more presidential than Rubio IMO. But I'm concerned he's too much of an isolationist. I'll be interested to see if it turns into an open primary.
  18. Informative graphic. Click to see entire thing including who sends how much oil through there. Also, it looks like the shipping lanes are actually in Omani waters.
  19. I taught my young children that they are responsible for their actions and reactions. Apparently no one taught Squissy that.

    I Think He Stunned It

  21. It's fairly obvious that Trump went through all of the lawfare, assassination attempts, and campaigning to put in 20 hour days doing whatever Israel wants. It's nuance, ESAC!
  22. The Left: Donald Trump is a narcissist who doesn't listen to anyone and does whatever he wants. Also the Left: Donald Trump does whatever Israel wants.
  23. The JCPOA is/was a joke. What, Iran needed nuclear energy to free them from their reliance on the ocean of oil and natural gas they sit atop? Cmon now. But, bad on Trump for leaving it and not working on a better deal. He clearly saw the mistake of that this time around. Shame also on the Biden Politburo for not getting a new deal.
  24. Who is calling for regime change? If the Iranians do it, great, but we aren't going to do another Iraq or Afghanistan.
  25. We've had this discussion. Trans is a mental illness. You can call it something different if you don't like the negative connotation, but if your brain thinks you are a different sex than your body is, your brain is not working correctly. The question then becomes: what do we do about it? We seem to be as a society in a mode of "encourage it, glorify it, and provide medical ways to mutilate your body," which seems like an odd way to address a mental illness.
