  1. I put this in politics because what's shockingly obvious is that all of a sudden the media not is questioning the FBI and their case......I found that a little strange What a dang shame btw the players are losing it all over greed. [Hidden Content]
  2. That is high.....mine started to creep down last month.
  3. I'm somewhat in the middle...... However. as my posy above - we need to cut spending - which means social programs included.....Are you ready for that?
  4. Didn't I hear you were a truck driver? Fuel is about to hit an average of $3 - which is lowest since 2021.
  5. Perhaps the Democrats should allow and not fight....maybe join in and embrace DOGE and cutting unnecessary expenses...... The problem is Democrats will scream he is taking away all the social programs.....fact is, we probably need to take away some. I think we need to tighten up the qualifications for all social programs. I think we need to re-look at unemployment benefits. When I was 19 or 20, I went and applied for unemployment and I didn't have to accept a lower paying wage than what I was making.....I ended up getting a job because the line was too long back then to wait....(that is how lazy I was back then lol) - Now days it is done by computer, so you don't even have to get off the couch......That needs to change! Anyway a few links were Democratic leaders were trying to block DOGE from doing their job to cut waste and abuse...... [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
  6. That what CNN and 2 farmers said on CNN Farmers still support Trump and no matter what, Trump would not upset that base.
  7. Just in time to be an issue for Mid-terms....... I actually hope those idiots elect him
  8. He sued them before he was elected. His attorneys will tell him to table it, and resume it after he leaves office. There is enough evidence just in the Mueller report and what was found that they knew there was no Russian interference, yet continued to pursue him to make an excellent case......and by the end of his term, they will find more.
  9. Totally false as Baddog pointed out..... He said he would donate it or give it to White House.
  10. Some of the TDS in this forum is insane. Since when is it a bad idea to have allies? I remember when Trump made history being the first President to walk into North Korea. The media and his haters thought he was crazy.....we don't negotiate with terrorist.....but here we are in his second term and he had negotiated 7 cease fires........but the TDS folks are complaining because he is adding on to the East wing with his own money plus donors......
  11. Here is the problem Democrats face. The shutdown is not being blamed on Trump. Trump as of today has an AVERAGE approval rating of 45.5% On the same polling site, Obama had an AVERAGE approval rating of 43.7% on Oct 21st in the first year of his second term, so apples to apples..... If you look at the favorability ratings, leaders in Congress and senate on both sides don't look great, but Republicans have a slightly better favorability than Democrats...... I predict enough Dem's vote yes to get this thing through by the end of the week.
  12. And he received a lot of flack from his base. He is in a bad situation. I think he is hoping some other Democrats vote to spare him this time
  13. Then what is it about? Lets hear your theory.....
  14. Where does China get its beef from? Guess who is in the top 3 trading partners of Argentina? Read a little more than CNN....
  15. I have not really heard any details. It is a complicated issue. I think expanding Medicaid to people below a certain income could work. At the same time, in my job, I see people that make $250K a year or more, but according to their tax returns they make 12,000/year. Like I said, complicated. I don't see a bipartisan agreement on a single payer system ever....
  16. I just looked it up - the penalty for not having insurance ended in 2019. I always thought it was a little unconstitutional to force you to buy something or penalize you.
  17. I'm honestly not sure if they think they are some how anointed with THAT much power, or they know they are overstepping, but use it to just delay Trump and his policies..... Either way, until a Judge is removed or some sort of repercussion/accountability, I don't see it ending. I'd be curious to hear if you think their is a way to hold these left wing judges accountable?
  18. Does it matter if we agree? It's funny we all of a sudden care about Government spending but when DOGE came in and started cutting waste and silly projects the left (and YOU if I recall) lost their minds..... Here is a comment from the cattle association. Farmers are a HUGE part of the MAGA base and I have no doubt Trump will take care of them. Trumps tariffs just this year have collected 165 BILLION in custom duties..... HE will make sure this does not hurt farmers. “USCA supports affordable food prices for American families. But we do oppose policies or loopholes that manipulate the market to address a solution that will be solved through natural market behavior. This approach weakens our industry’s foundation and undermines rural America. “We have appreciated President Trump’s ‘America First’ priorities, which have consistently highlighted the importance of supporting U.S. producers and reinforcing national food security. This moment presents an excellent opportunity to show genuine American-first leadership by prioritizing strong domestic production, and fair, transparent markets for both ranchers and consumers.”
  19. They are penalized on their taxes.....if they file.....
  20. Looks like Federal Judges don't run the National Guard..... The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday ruled that President Donald Trump can deploy Oregon National Guard troops into the city of Portland, delivering a significant victory to the Trump administration as it continues its effort to send federal forces into Democratic-led cities despite a string of recent setbacks in other district and appeals courts.

  21. The "20 point" plan is great in theory, but it has always favored Israel. If Hamas screws around, Israel will level them Hamas with no hostages has absolutely nothing.
  22. There is no way any Republican (that could win) will challenge him. I would be willing to bet he goes unchallenged. If he don't that is what the Democratic process is about. At the end of the day, I'm 99% sure he will be the one that goes against the Democratic challenger....
  23. What has he done tat makes him a King.....Be specific.
  24. Not all - I've questioned some, but at the end of the day, I support using the SC as the final decision maker.
  25. 3 - and when JD Vance gets in, he has the chance to replace 2...... What decisions of the current 19 wins do you think was unconstitutional?
