Engorgeous George 2,331 Posted February 4 21 minutes ago, Mike Honcho said: How many times do I have to apologize for saying I was a disabled black lesbian Vietnam Vet, before you let it go, and it wasn't that germane to the argument I was making anyway! Which I won BTW. Perhaps his angst has something to do with the order in which those attributes are listed. Maybe try moving disabled right in front of Viet Nam Vet, at least if that is where the disability arose. Otherwise it seems maybe the disability is more closely associated with being a black lesbian. Really, the entire phrase might benefit from a new order and a few commas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Citizens vote for representatives, representatives create laws, and that's authoritarian? But Trump is getting rid of what the people voted for so he can free them? That is not what is happening in modern America. The deep state writes the laws broadly and our idiot representatives pass laws barely understanding what they passed. These deep state agencies then create millions of detailed regulations based on the authority they were granted. The agencies then use the regulations to assert their authority over citizens. When these agencies are caught abusing citizens rights they then get dragged in front of Congress where they refuse to address their questions. The DC circuit is loaded with a bunch of judges who just rubber stamped their blind authority. The FBI for instance gets hundreds of thousands of FISA warrants every year very few have anything to do with fighting terrorists which was the justification for granting such authority. That is the focking swamp that has been created and you idiots think that is how it should work. We need to put a big knife in the back of this deep state monster and once again have a government which answers to the people, not the mega wealthy puppet master of the deep state.

Please explain the reasonable terms that Trump got from Mexico and Canada, which were not agreed to by those countries before the tariffs. That is what he has the 30 days for, to negotiate new agreements to help secure the border. Deals are not created overnight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good lord, you are focking stupid as fuk. It is not wealth with makes people authoritarian bastards who want to be the deep state puppet masters. The authoritarian bastards you endlessly butt kiss for are the once who do not believe that people should be free but they need elitist rulers.. These are the focking idiots who talk about regulating 'disinformation' or want to disarm citizens or want endless power to spy on Americans and control how they think and what they consume. Musk and Trump advance free speech, privacy, self-defense, financial freedom, and pursuing your dreams. Are you too focking stupid to understand the difference between freedom and authority. The answer is obviously yes you are too focking stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Being rich or being backed by big companies does not make you part of the big government authoritarian machine. Those who support an evil agenda are those who: 1. Want a gatekeeper of all information which the public can readily access. 2. Controlling what speech is heard and what speech is suppressed. 3. Controlling who has guns. 4. Controlling the public narrative. 5. Having the ability to have mass surveillance 6. Being able to raid political enemies by getting rubber stamped warrants 7. Being able to freeze financial accounts for whimsical reasons. 8. Controlling who gets what healthcare. 9. Stripping away power from local governments. If you think independant voices standing up for freedom is evil, I can't help such ignorance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BarneyFife 34 Posted February 4 15 hours ago, The Real timschochet said: Just awful. I should have realized before starting it that anything you like would be terrible reading. Democrats will defeat Trump by letting him be Trump. In less than two weeks he’s already made a fool and fockup of himself a dozen times, and had to cave several times. He’s an idiot and a coward. I’d be embarrassed for you because you voted for him, but then I’m already embarrassed for you. What an idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From a blue state on the east coast all I’m seeing is win after win after win for Trump. Meanwhile, on the other side Tim is somehow under the impression that Trump has focked up and made a fool of himself. Good thing most of the country is seeing what I am delusion is strong within him.
