  1. You didn't more than paid off you loan, you simply paid off your loan. The interest and agreement is there before you sign. JUst like a credit card : It would take someone more than 11 years to pay down a balance of $2,000 with a 20.99% APR while only making minimum payments. They would ultimately pay $4,456 — including $2,456 in interest — assuming no other fees.
  2. The left does not get it..... I stand with you as far as the LGBTQ community..... But they are forcing more and more parents to home school or send to private schools......they should take their tax money with them
  3. I read your last statement you posted with the conclusion, I understand. BUT:) , in a nutshell, wouldn't the officers be covered just like if a cop found me on the road beat up and I gave a description of a vehicle and description of folks that assaulted me?
  4. Couldn't that go both ways though? Playing devil's advocate
  5. Rock, meet hard place...... I personally believe there are only 2 sexes and 2 genders.....BUT if we are not going to discriminate and treat people the same, I think she should be hired if she meets the qualifications.... However, I may have a hard time referring to a he as a she......
  6. The mainstream media does not want anyone thinking for themselves unless they agree with it. If you start questioning things you get silenced, or charged (look at Trump). Think about the Russia hoax with Trump, Hunters laptop(the signed letter from ex cia agents), Covid lockdowns, Covid vaccines......that's just off the top of my head.....if you questioned any of those things you were labeled at minimum a conspiracy theorists. One of America's core values is free speech. It does have a cost, you have to use your brain. We shouldn't just take the media's word for anything and we certainly should not take the Governments word on anything. Both have been caught being very dishonest
  7. A lie is a lie….
  8. This is an absolute lie if you are talking about me. I have the messages to prove it. and specifically told you what you said for your suspension.
  9. No campaign runs on the popular vote. You won't see many visits to California from a Democrat because they already have the electoral votes. In my example of popular votes, when you take out the two largest Democratic States, It's practically even on the popular vote. The popular vote does not win elections......which is why Democrats have moved South Carolina in front of New hampshire and Iowa......
  10. A fun fact if you want to talk about the popular vote - California and New York make up 7,096,710 of the popular vote difference of the overall difference of 7,059,547. This is a perfect example of why our founding Fathers came up with the electoral college. They didn't want two states deciding Presidential elections. Numbers don't lie......
  11. I'm not sure who you are quoting, but it's not Trump. Why are you spreading disinformation?
  12. A great refresher that does not seemed biased....... [Hidden Content]
  13. Then you are not on the same page with Aggie or me. I will vote for whoever we nominate that is the Republican...... No one, I repeat no one is a destroying our democracy,,,,,,,Elections have been contested since the 1800 (Lincoln's in 1860 is a great example) and yet here we are......2023 "destroying our democracy" is only a Democratic talking point. "if President Trump is elected it will destroy our democracy"....Really? If he is elected by the proper electoral votes per the constitution that will destroy our democracy? If he challenged the results and can't prove it, and leaves office, that is a threat to democracy? To me, that is Democracy hard at work doing what our founding fathers intended........ So stop it with the CNN talking points
  14. Every poll and media organization had Trump losing 2016....... They were ALL wrong. It's not impossible Trump win 2024.....We are a Representative Democracy.
  15. The guy that jumped from the boat and swam to the co-captains rescue is my hero......
  16. Betting on your choice does not show support, voting for your choice shows support. As you know, you live in Texas, YOUR States vote will be Trump, and that’s where your vote counts. So we know at least 38 electoral votes will come from Texas😎
  17. I was surprised he went there.
  18. Point out where I EVER cursed you....... Your suspension was from what you wrote, and i was not just me making that decision and that was some WORLD CLASS deflection - BRAVO!!
  19. Some of us, A LOT of us, see he is being unfairly attacked. I'll take Trump over Biden any day. Instead of calling his supporters fools or pieces of crap, how about you support them exercising their constitutional right to vote for who they please without intimidation?......I've not once called you a fool, an idiot, a jerk or a piece of crap for voting for Biden. I support your right to write in Micky Mouse if you can't decide who to vote for. The name calling is something I was pretty good at in Jr. High, but outgrew it pretty quick.......
  20. and despite that he is within 1 point of beating Biden in the general.......compared to Desantis getting beat by 6 points......FROM MY SOURCE Who's the clown?
  21. This is the fun part.....The closest to Trump is Desantis at 15%....I really like Ramaswamy and he is almost 7% ....One of the few that does not rag on Trump. You can't win the primary talking negative about Trump, you need his base. DeSantis was polling in the low 30% in Feb 2023.......He started talking about Trump and his percent dropped in half........Ramaswamy is talking about his vision.....and could very well be Trumps VP in election.
  22. He thinks Trump lost by some crazy amount.......It was a few thousand votes in a few states..... He picked up several million votes from 2016 to 2020, yet CB thinks it's impossible to pick up 60K more in 2024......Now lets add in the fact that Bidens disapproval is at 54.7%, the economy stinks, gas prices rising again.......According to an average of polls in 538, Trump does better than DeSantis.....will that change? To be determined
  23. The most accurate polls out there currently have Biden beating DeSantis by 6 points......and there is no argument? Really? You taking out facts to argue your case does not work on me. This is the same method you tried to use when I pointed out 56K votes decide the election......
  24. So your first line tells me you're not a Republican...... As for voting for someone, I guess we might as well give up. The latest FiveThirtyEight polls (the most accurate in 2016 election, shows if election was held 8-4 thru 8-6, Biden is up 6 points over Desantis........and Biden over Trump by 1 point........an August 1st poll has Trump up by 3 points over Desantis Trump can't win is a Democratic talking point that started in 2016.......

  25. I would not be that confident in him.....if you were convicted of murder, would you want this guy on your side? From 2010 to 2015, Smith served under Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder, leading the DOJ’s Public Integrity Section. The Obama Administration set in motion Democrats’ Coup against Trump from Day One of his presidency. (Excerpt from Lee Smith’s book, October 2019, “The Plot Against the President: The True Story of How Congressman Devin Nunes Uncovered the Biggest Political Scandal in U.S. History”). Among his more notable corruption cases, Smith prosecuted the former governor of Virginia, Robert McDonnell, a Republican. Although Smith scored a conviction against McDonnell, the case was later overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in a unanimous 8-0 decision. The Court observed that “there is no doubt that this case is distasteful; it may be worse than that. But our concern is not with tawdry tales of Ferraris, Rolexes, and ball gowns. It is instead with the broader legal implications of the Government’s boundless interpretation of the federal bribery statute.” (Politico, 6/27/16). The High Court also rebuked Smith and warned that “the uncontrolled power of criminal prosecutors is a threat to our separation of powers.” Smith prosecuted and convicted former Democrat vice presidential nominee John Edwards. “By not losing on any of the six felony counts for which he was being tried, John Edwards won the biggest victory of his political and legal life . . . A mistrial on five counts and an acquittal on one resulted in a clear -- if not complete -- legal vindication and a likely fatal setback for federal prosecutors seeking to convict the former U.S. senator and 2004 Democratic vice presidential nominee for allegedly violating the Federal Election Campaign Act.” (U.S. News, June 1, 2012). Smith prosecuted Democrat Bob Menendez on public corruption charges. The case ended in a mistrial. “The way this case started was wrong, the way it was investigated was wrong, the way it was prosecuted was wrong, and the way it was tried was wrong as well,” Menendez said outside the courtroom at the time.” (Washington Examiner, 6/5/23). Smith prosecuted Arizona congressman Rick Renzi on corruption charges, which the Supreme Court upheld. Renzi was later pardoned by former President Trump. Renzi declared that he had been “wrongly convicted by a Department of Justice that engaged in witness tampering, illegal wiretapping, and gross prosecutorial misconduct.” (Washington Examiner, 6/5/23).
