  1. ..... cliimate change? Aboard a sub with a faulty shi..tt..er! The world is increasingly that sub. But relatively few are going to die due to 'climate change' directly ...... nothing like the millions thru food insecurity, war, disease, pestilence exacerbated by climate change. And then there's the geo-political changes due to the (5) Horsemen. The United States is facing a serious freshwater crisis today, many regions (ag) are experiencing declining water supplies due to overuse, drought and of course climate change. I'm a fatalist ........ but I laugh at those spouting childish and silly conscious-ignorant arguments - on the other hand, few listen to them except to mock.
  2. .......... contrary to political rhetoric, data centers do not create large scale employment, (construction notwithstanding) People are concerned about the incredible demand on energy - the demand is enormous and expect to get more so - enough energy to sustain a 1000000 homes - who pays? U pay! Water for cooling .......... is another concern. All that being said, data center construction is akin to having a dump in ur back yard? Necessary, but not in my backyard? There is little community gain? Technology might be slowed, but it can never be stopped. China doesn't seem to suffer from the peasants concerns.
  3. ........... yeah, Robert Kennedy jr. has been accused of that. 🀣
  4. ..................... to you? What about following the (immigration) law .......... if it's feckless, change it? U don't get to say, 'I don't like this law' so I won't follow it.................. laughable. Birthright citizenship - same thing. Let those feckless bast'ds do their job - get them on the record. The second Trump admin implemented (4) major EOs that relate to the southern border. In combination these four actions effectively closed the southern border to migrants, including those requesting asylum and humanitarian protection. With a trifecta why couldn't Congress craft a statute .......... vice EO? The EO is temporary? And that is what makes it so perfect politically. The truth is that Congress (Trump direction) shot down a bill dealing with Immigration reform before his second term. Don't let a great deal get in the way of a good deal - the proposed Bill, warts and all, was bi-partisan and it would have been a beginning to a debate - there is NO debate now.
  5. ......... lets compromise and just say that the US is not a country of laws? 😁 Pew research showed that 53 percent of US CITIZENS said that the Trump admin was doing, β€˜too much’ on deportations, with over 50 percent disapproving of the presidents approach. A Quinnipiac survey reported that 57 percent of CITIZENS disapproved of how ICE was enforcing immigration laws. What is really astonishing is that Trump is 'underwater' in EVERY category - but u know that.
  6. The 4th is just more silliness? The Constitution is silliness? Agreed, that statement is silly. Is the US a country of laws?
  7. .......... agree that immigration was out of control. However, a migrant claiming asylum upon setting foot on U.S. soil does NOT make them illegal. Don't like it ................ u know who to blame. Who to blame is a feckless Congress. Ya think immigration reform laws are needed vice, EO's The situation is too politically attractive to change anything .......... more the pity. Pity ........... or pathetic.
  8. I generally just label them fudge-packers.
  9. Is the USA a country of Laws? Ass-umption can make an a$$ out of an individual? Be objective ................ not consciously ignorant. Partisan politics is kill'n the country.
  10. ............. arguably a Dem trifecta would allow the feckless political right to regain a backbone and become, once again, a proud and constructive party, capable of representing the PEOPLE's will. U seem to discount a 3rd term? I would NOT discount his rhetoric.
  11. ................... lol .....some folks are so dependent on exaggeration that they can't tell the truth without telling ever exaggerated lies.
  12. Suppose the real question is whether the U.S. is a country of laws? The aggressive actions of Fed immigration agents (Minnesota) and cities around the country have drawn attention to an important truth and that is ICE, CBP (US Border Patrol) agents are routinely going far beyond what the law allows them to do? Their aggressive tactics on the ground are backed up by unprecedented interpretations of their legal authority with these agencies secretly adopting aggressive new policies toward entering homes and making arrests without JUDICIAL warrants? β€œTo all ICE officers: You have federal immunity in the conduct of your duties" / Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff for policy. A country of laws?
  13. ........ a minor point, but it was the Catholic political faction of the Weimar republic that allowed the NAZI to be elected to power legitimately and by extension, pass the 'Enabling Act'. One passed the NAZI reneged their support for 'said' party and Germany became authoritarian. Garden variety concentration camps sprung up and the Horst Wessel song went to #1 on the NAZI hit parade.
  14. Col. David Lapan (ret) is an independent strategic communications and media consultant who has more than 30 years of military service and 20 years experience in communications and public affairs. As Public Affairs Officer, he served as a spokesman and advisor to three SecDef. "I think ICE is headed in the wrong direction in that they're attracting the wrong type of individual to be involved in the very serious tasking they have" / Lapan ICE is slated to receive 30 BILLION by 2029 to fund its activities. The recent budget increase for ICE is p/o the 'Big Beautiful Bill Act" and has led ICE becoming the largest interior law enforcement agency in the COUNTRY!!!
  15. lol ..............kid? ............... wow! ............... never heard that one before ............. ur repetitive and getting boring. πŸ˜… ........ they say age is just a number .......... but immaturity is forever? Are u forever, Faux pas? 😝 That said, maybe we can get together with ur coloring book and you'll let me use ur fav pink crayons, dear? Seriously, Faux - ur too industrious for a blog ........... keep it to 2-3 substantive chapters ........... u'll learn. πŸ‘ atta boy. πŸ˜…
  16. That's akin to being only a little bit pregnant - won't do, bro. The temerity of the Kanadians to condemn the U.S. for slavery .......... is beyond belief. love that, 'may or may not', bit. ............. and for fk's sake how many times do I have to tell ya that the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor in 1914.
  17. .............. I hesitate to mention the forced assimilation conducted in Kanadian Residential Schools for several hundred years - too embarrassing and all? Is cultural genocide bad? Doing God's work?
  18. .................... u set a low bar ........... those (2) murders cast doubt on ur convictions tho.
  19. ah, no .......the delusion would believing that u could get ur point across without writing a tome that should be weighed, vice read.
  20. Dodge, a woman is not ur right hand .............. or the left for variety. 🀣
  21. Judging by their performance prove they're not............... the burden is on u.
