  1. So, let's break down this lie in bold. It started with Obama. He changed the definition of deportation to include what was previously termed a Turn Back: LA Times: "Expulsions of people who are settled and working in the United States have fallen steadily since his first year in office, and are down more than 40% since 2009. On the other side of the ledger, the number of people deported at or near the border has gone up — primarily as a result of changing who gets counted in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency’s deportation statistics. The vast majority of those border crossers would not have been treated as formal deportations under most previous administrations. If all removals were tallied, the total sent back to Mexico each year would have been far higher under those previous administrations than it is now." If Turn Backs are deportations, then nymber of border encounters determine how many are being deported. For the sake of argument and easy math, let's say 10% are Turned Back at the border because they don't have a valid passport or visa. If you have a high number of encounters, you will have a high number of turn backs and those turn backs are classified as deportations. From your BBC article: "Since January 2021, when Joe Biden came to office, there have been more than 10 million encounters - about 8 million came over the southwest land border with Mexico. Under the Trump administration, there were 2.4 million encounters on this border." Ten million encounters at 10% "deportations" is one million deportations. Compare that to 2.4 million in Trump's first term at 10% would mean 250,000 deportations. Now look at border encounters for last year: CBP That lie is now debunked. Use it at your own peril.
  2. Projection really is your only go to. Fascinating.
  3. She loves to hide behind big words. Let me break the mystique for you. Her motus operandi is to make a proclamation of fact that is really an assumption or opinion and then classify opposing opinions and reactions as some psychological disorder. What she is doing is no different than when the left calls us Nazis, racists or any other name. She seeks to discredit opposition opinion or facts through personal attacks. This is the tactic of someone that does not have the mental acuity to defend their thesis. If she could defend her assertions, she wouldn't need to diagnose her perceived opposition with mental disorders and abnormal psychological behaviors to distract from her lack of evidence. On some level, she knows she can't defend her opinions so she needs to discredit others' opinions to satisfy her need to feel superior. Effectively, she is employing the tactics of six year old in a playground arguing over who's daddy can beat up the other's daddy. She uses words and terms that she thinks make her sound authoritative. In reality, she's just someone that can't support her own assertions and she resorts to name calling.
  4. You do a lot of projecting, don't you?
  5. [Leftist]No one is above the law, unless they hate Trump. They are above the law. [/leftist]
  6. How did I know you would defend fraud in the government?
  7. Newsweek: Massive fraud allegations in California: What we know “What we’re trying to do is paint a picture,” he explained. “With, you know, a heavy caveat as to the accuracy of the number, but we think it’s going to be at least $250 billion … and probably more than that once you get into it.” “What’s actually happened is the pandemic spending has been baked into the regular spending trajectory,” he said. “That’s what’s happened. So my estimate is that we’re really talking about the explosion of spending around the pandemic which has been carried into normal budgeting.” President Trump, meanwhile, dubbed California “more corrupt than Minnesota” while announcing a federal probe into alleged fraud in the state early Tuesday. Minnesota Governor Walz announced he planned to abandon his quest for a third term amid an ongoing multibillion-dollar fraud scandal. A day earlier, Hilton and Morgan wrote a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi requesting an investigation into purported “systemic fraud and fiduciary negligence” in state-funded programs. ********** I used to think we could only balance the budget by cutting programs. In the last year, I have become certain that we can balance the budget by simply eliminating fraud. Kick in some waste and abuse elimination and we probably have a healthy surplus.
  8. Like I said in the other thread, these companies are waiting for stability. A free and fair election would go a long way to doing that. But the left is shocked...shocked I tell you...that stability didn't happen over night. I would not invest a dollar in Venezuela unless and until the country begins conforming to western values. That means capitalism and representative government. What Trump needs to do is convince these oil companies to announce plans to invest in Venezuela and hire Venezuelans to do the jobs if a new government is elected. That would go a long way to bringing about change.
  9. Right. Calling Americans Nazis is just good politics, right? Wver think you are so radical that you don't see how radical others are?
  10. V They are waiting for an elected government to take over. Then they will invest. But don't forget the positives: 1. Unelected leader is gone 2. Russia, China, Iran and Cuba lose their black market oil trade 3. Drug cartels are going to lose their home base 4. Venezuela has an opportunity to return to its former glory. If our oil companies don't get back in there, oh well. The other positives above are enough to call this a huge win.
  11. That is how the law works moroʻn
  12. You just posted a Canuck talking about what Trump should do. Flipping hypocrite.
  13. If China invades Greenland, would anyone here admit Trump was right? I don't know that China would do that. The fact that Trump is dead set on this is a message to the ChiComs; "I [Tump] ain't fùcking around." If I lived in Greenland, I would want the US to pay monthly dividends for the minerals and lease the land for the military bases.
  14. Found the brown shirts: If you are looking for people trying to create the impression of chaos and the need for a change in leadership, these are your people.
  15. That is because those numbers were a lie. He counted turnbacks as deportations when all that really happened was they got to the border and got sent home. Further, the lwnjs did not go around protesting ICE and CBP actions, so they did not create this false perception of chaos.
  16. Reality. You need to get your eyes checked. Not relevant.
