This is the essence of small government. This is the heart of local politics. When I voted for Trump i was 1 of 152 million. When I voted for Abbott I was 1 of 8 million. When I voted for my Texas rep, I was one of 50,000. When I voted for myor of my town, I was 1 of 609. You have the most freedom and the biggest say in the smallest elections. I can go talk to my mayor and he will listen. That's how I got our little league baseball field fixed. Smaller is better for you. You have a bigger voice. With no department of education, you can go to the school board and tell them you want better online learning tools or better lunches or higher paid teachers and they can do something about it. As it stands right now, there are so many strings attached that these school boards can't change where the money goes. Our school had $1.35 million from the state and federal government for grass. They don't even have enough grass to justify a riding lawn mower. But the school board can't divert the money because that would violate federal mandates and they'd lose the rest of the money. So they spend $1.35 on a small patch of grass. It looks great BTW.

Schumer is an ìd!ot

Inspection schedules come from the FAA and the Manufacturer. The operator doesn't schedule the inspections, they comply with them. Then the FAA and the manufacturer screwed up. The operator doesn't invent inspections. Good gawd, that's a stùpid argument. The bird comment was meant to symbolize random events that are plausible but unpredictable. I wasn't literally saying that birds took down the airplane. -

Let the investigation come to the final conclusion before we start handing out punishments. Also, damage could have happened after the inspection. Just because the inspection was relatively recent, doesn't mean it is the perfect solution. There is a reason aircraft have a maintenance log for inoperative equipment between inspections. A mechanic could look at an airplane right now and certify that everything is working perfectly. Then, on the next departure, a hydraulic line breaks or an engine fails. It happens. Inspection can't catch everything and I have no idea what phase of inspection was done on the helicopter. Some phases check a list of items. Some phases check many items. And some phases check all items. Some items have time limits because of known engineering or materials problems. Some parts require deep inspections on cycles, some on hours. Just saying there was an inspection is absolutely meaningless. Thats like saying there was air and gas. So what? Was that part inspected? Was it a visual inspection or did they test for microcracks? Was there a manufacturing defect that was undetected? There are ways to many questions that can't be answered right now. Schumer is just an asṣ looking for a spotlight to save his rep. -
This helicopter crash could have been a defective part, some kind of weird bird strike, or any number of things. But this ìdiot Schumer is in hot water with his base so he's trying to appear tough. All he's doing is calling on operators to be punished for generalizations that may or may not apply to them. Let the examination of the event find something first.

How do you screw up posting a YouTube video that is automatically integrated into the post when you claim to be so good with computers that you told the fbi how stupid they are? Any how...these things aren't the same. Three people led the country with no accountability or recognition. They were a shadow government. Laura getting in Trump's ear and him listening is not the same. Not even close. Presidents have always had advisors. What Biden had was a shadow government.

This video is an interview of a staffer from the "Biden" White House. She reveals that the three people in charge were called the Council of Presidents and that they ran the country for the majority (if not the entirety) of the Biden administration. They are: Mike Donilon Steve Ricchetti Anita Dunn She also confirmed that Hunter made a lot of the calls when Joe was sick with Covid and that he sat in on classified meetings.

The link is from well before the tariffs went in place and detailed how the tariffs were a negotiating tool. No one was negotiating before they had tariffs levied against and now they all are. You assertion that it wasn't a negotiating tactic or that they all wanted to negotiate before hand is just oddly void of reality.

TPUSA Assaulted by the left

And I think we've seen several threads about how the left is just fine with violence. This outright endorsement is just proof positive that they are. -
You can't prove a single one was willing to negotiate. They had multiple opportunities under Trump and Biden. They gave a little under Trp's first term, but they tried to get it back under Biden. They didn't want to deal. They wanted to steal. You can't show me any where we're they said they wanted a new trade deal before Trump said he would impose tariffs. Because they didn't want to. They are the only ones to make that proclamation: https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps-tariffs/article/france-and-its-partners-will-not-yield-to-us-threats-says-french-trade-minister/ But the proof in all of these is in reality. None of them negotiated new trade deals. Canada/Trudeau kept saying they were team Canada, Mexico refused to deal with cartels and no one really truly negotiated until tariffs became reality.

TPUSA Assaulted by the left

It's a real debate. -
Today, the end game is clear. Ninety plus countries are now negotiating with us while China is scrambling to get attention. At a time when their real estate market (about 20% of theor GDP) is crashing, they need to ramp up and sell cheap goods. But that is being hampered by Trump pushing other nations to forgo the cheap crap from China for the quality products from any where else. The end game is to isolate China economically while restoring fairer trade practices and restoring manufacturing jobs in America.

And yet the voters of collegiate age voted far more conservative than any of the current generations. Now, Kirk did not do all of that. But he definitely helped. These videos took conversations amongst a small group and brought in thousands of listeners. I've said it here. I'm debating the libs, but my audience is the third party that we don't know is reading. The same is true, on a much bigger scale, with the "Prove Me Wrong" events. Those videos went viral and the next election went far more conservative for that age group. That's not coincidence. -
It's Not A Glitch. It Is A Feature

Intent does not know capability. Incompetence does not know intent. Both the bìtch that tried to get Iran to kill the POTUS and the guy that tried to kill him may be stupid and ineffective (they are leftists, so that is a given) but they intended to kill the POTUS so they are traitors and should be punished appropriately. -

Yes. It's the same thing to make fun of Hillary for setting up a system to bypass recording keeping requirements, then getting hacked, then intentionally deleting data when the fbi asks for it and telling Iran where Trump is so they can kill him. Totally the same. Jackasś https://www.maralagoclub.com/golf Same one the lwnj tried to shoot him at.
