No one has supported, suggested or otherwise insinuated such a ridiculous act.

I didn't say there was no alternative. I said that he used rhetoric to incite violence and/or war. I can see why X would censor that. I can also see why they reinstated it after it was appealed. Free speech isn't unlimited speech. I suggest you invest some time in learning the distinctions.

He's calling for a revolution. Is he not? He used the word.

We see it all the time on here and else where. The left absolutely wants the executive branch to be controlled by unelected buerocrats. This CNN panel advocate for exactly that by putting out this wild conspiracy theory that Trump is shrinking the federal government to do some (unnamed) nefarious dead. It is the most satisfying thing to watch when these lwnjs start backpeddling and trying to pretend they never said that. CNN is, according to liberals, this Bastian of journalism. Yet, this wild ass conspiracy theory is being floated by their hosts. Unreal.

Fox 5 NY: Attorney General Pam Bondi says 'some Epstein information' will be released Thursday I'll try to post it here if I see it first.

You mean the Canadian born judge that says we have to spend money in Canada? Judges don't get to tell the President where to spend money. Congress and the Executive branch are the authority on that.

So you think X should be a portal for inciting wars?

Lmao.. ok. When you put that into Google translate, what language was it before it became english?

First, tax rates have minimal impact on the federal inlays. If you look at the graph of total tax revenue generated by year, the years for cuts and increases are indistinguishable. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FYFRGDA188S# Finally, you assume that all spending is mandatory so revenue is the only solution. Revenue, in fact, is not the solution. Regardless of the tax rates, the country will collect roughly 16.5% of the GDP. Spending must be less than that to not run a deficit.

Yeah. I had links to credible sources that debunked everything you posted. You had no, no, no, no, no.

The people that profit are the ones that get under the table deals for pushing through pork that benefits them. Like that Stacy Abrahms $2B slush fund that went to friends of Joe to prop up failing companies and megaconglomerates alike. I did a hole thread on it with tax filings, names, key actions, and money trail. Cutting spending benefits no one in the federal government save the people that get positive polling for doing it.

It was not. Here is a screen shot of the data that you can download from my link: Feb 2025. So you just made shit up. You made shit up about SNAP. You made shit up about Medicaid. You made shit up about the Trump Tax cuts. Everything you have said tonight was a lie. It is all a lie.

Well, how about the one you just said about the poll I posted: Then you can address the lie that the cuts to personnel will severely impact lives?

Looks like I'm in a super majority: Do you have anything to support that lie?

I don't care about democracy because unelected beaurocrats are getting cut and saving my grandchildren from crippling debt?

In posting this, did you think anyone would care?

Let's talk about reality: Newsweek: The budget, which calls for $2 trillion in spending cuts in total, does not mention Medicaid specifically but it directs the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which oversees Medicaid, to cut $880 billion in spending over the next decade. Newsweek: Ramaswamy wrote on X that $1 billion is "wasted *every month* on ineligible SNAP (food stamp) benefits" due to overpayments and fraudsters preying on beneficiaries. Smart Asset: Trump Tax Tables You'll notice that EVERYONE making more than $9200 got a tax break. -----------------‐-------------- What does this mean? It means everything the libs are saying, is a lie.

He does like to over state his starting point when it comes to negotiating. Maybe he's trying to tell the UN that the USA will side with Russia if they don't get their act together. We won't. But he's probably trying to make them panic a little.

Nope. Those bring up Herbie.

I think abstaining would have been prudent. But Trump might have been signaling his opposition to the UN as well. That corrupt crap hole funds terrorism and lines the pockets of the ruler class. It might be time to leave.

I love it and hate it. I'll miss the pod for sure. But Bongino is the perfect outsider to handle insider corruption. The good guys will ne promoted and the drifters will be gone.

What would this bill have done? Real world. If this bill had passed. What would it have done? Because if it was just words with no mechanisms for change, what does it matter how we vote other than the feels that come from it? America has strongly condemned Russia's actions. How would it help to do that again? It didn't change anything in the past. Maybe this time we try to get the war ended and move on. Yes, that means Russia bullied their way into some of what they wanted. But it also means innocent civilians in Ukraine aren't being killed.

Nothing to see here folks. It is just a glitch that it suggests replacing the word racist with the word Trump. Does anyone believe that it was a glitch? Best case scenario (for apple) some a-hole lib working for them snuck the code in. Worst case, they did it on purpose.

Now, to what really happened at KMDW today. https://www.liveatc.net/archive.php? Start at 14:50 FlexJet 560 is cleared to taxi via Alpha, Foxtrot and Hold Short of Runway 4L. Later they are cleared to taxi via 4L, cross 31L and hold short of 31C. XLJ560 followed all of the instructions except hold short of 31C. You'll notice that they are confused about the instructions from the very beginning. They asked for clarification for every set of instructions they were given and were corrected on the last set of instructions because they read back that they were going to cross 31C. They did read back and appear to understand the instructions. Here is the airport diagram with arrows and a read line at the last point they were told to stop. Pilot confusion appears to be a factor. Another factor is runway markings. On taxiways, every runway is preceded by a "hold short line." On runways, they don't put hold short lines for crossing runways. The exception to that rule is based on land and hold short operations. In some cases, the runways are long enough that it can be reasonably expected that all aircraft can stop prior to the crossing runway (or taxiway in some cases). When that is the case, a hold short line will be painted prior to the runway (or taxiway). Runway 31C is not far enough down the runway to get that type of indicator. Most likely, the pilots didn't realize they were crossing a runway because they didn't see the Hold Short Line. However, they should have known where they were. The Challenger 350 is equipped with large screens and a moving map display. In addition, they pilots almost certainly us JeppFD that is on an iPad and has a moving map display. KMDW can be a very busy airport. It was not that busy at the time of the incident. Sometimes pilots don't even get a chance to read back taxi clearances. Frankly, there is no good excuse for entering an active runway without clearance. What really should be the narrative right now is not DEI...not cuts to nonessential FAA personnel...the narrative should be that single pilot commercial operations would be an inherently unsafe policy. The SWA crew was able to execute a flawless rejected landing and save all of the passengers on board precisely because there were two pilots on board. Two pilots doubled their chances of seeing the offending aircraft. Two pilots doubled their chances of making a good decision. Two pilots doubled their chances of rejecting the landing safely. Further, even thought the Challenger had two pilots, had it only been one pilot, these types of incidents would occur more often. For every event like this, there are countless events that are stopped because one pilot saw the problem the other pilot was creating. Also, stop making these things political. They aren't. The FAA sets the minimum government standard. Pilots and controls that can only meet the minimum government standard suck. The incidents that happened recently are unrelated and unaffected by anything Biden or Trump did. Since the days of Bush pilots, controllers and airlines have been begging the FAA to modernize. They haven't. It didn't happen under Bush or Trump and it didn't happen under Obama or Biden. It's not political.

Isn't it great how well we all get along. 😬
