Iām losing my faith in law enforcement. A decade back an officer told me he smelled Marijuana, and I said he had an amazing nose. He placed me in handcuffs in the back of his car while he removed everything from my car, even my back seat, my luggage was opened, everything tossed, dumped on the ground, then he came back to the car demanding to know where I hid the pot. I just smiled and said there was none. He insisted I admitted to drug use, and repeatedly demanded to know where and threatening to impound my car. I kept saying no drugs, and when he repeated that I said he had a good nose, I responded my step brothers forced me to smoke pot when I was 13, so yeah, you have an amazing nose as itās been over 15 years ago. He left in a huff and it took me about an hour to repack my luggage and put the back seat back in my car. I was searched again years later after I asked if I had a choice when he asked to search my car. He called a k9 officer, and the friendliest tail-wagging dog ever peeād on my tires and they said he signaled and searched. Iām tired of this, itās been multiple times, you have no right to say no, they can lie and make up shit to search, and we have no options but to comply.

People think of cows as dumb animals, when in fact they are not. Cows have feelings, good and bad days, and can be friendly, loving attention and playful. As a kid I remember taking the brush part of an old broken push broom to them and I started to brush them, and they LOVED it! And it warms my heart to hear of an occasional āsavedā cow, because I can certainly tell you that some animals become pets. I can remember my favorite chicken, who was oddly affectionate, and then later my favorite little cow who was also a sweetheart, when they ended up on the dinner table. I get that dad was trying to enforce the point of food animals on me, to get me to understand, but I couldnāt eat. That was the worst times ever in a childās life.

I remember years ago a couple enraged, just mad as hell at a park ranger. As they passed us we were entering the walkway as they were leaving clutching their dog, you could hear them cussing, swearing to contact his supervisor, etc. When we passed the only ranger we saw we asked him what happened. They had their dog in their hands, no leash, and he said animals are not allowed, they got mad and he tried to explain that a year or so prior a familyās dog jumped in a hot spring, started yelping, the kid jumped in to save his dog, and the father jumped in to help him, and all three died. The couple were not pleased at not being able to let fluffy walk.

I had a Mitsubishi made Dodge Colt that lasted me 140k miles before I sold it, where the owner got another 100k miles on it before they sold it. It was so light and tough it was almost indestructible. I took it EVERYWHERE off-road with my 4x4 buddies, from mud, sand ice and snow and the little thing just went everywhere much to the amazement of my friends. I got it airborne well over a hundred times, it had a 1.3 L engine, wind up windows, etc. it was NOT quiet or a smooth ride. But it went from Texas to literally every western state in the US a few dozen times, got over 30 mpg on the highway and besides tires and oil... never had a single problem. There was insufficient headroom for a grown man. In the city I floored it pretty much everywhere every time and rapped it up to the maximum RPM's before shifting and the engine still sounded like a sewing machine at 140k miles. When I sold it to a friend he took it to a dealership who pointed out that the timing belt was supposed to be changed at 70k miles. So I agreed and did it. The mechanic brought the timing belt back to us... he was shocked and asked if I was sure it had never been replaced. It looked brand new, no cracks, you could see the lettering perfectly... at 140k miles and I must admit I ragged that car and engine like a madman. Mitsubishi makes some inexpensive cars... but the mechanics, the parts, engine, etc. in my opinion were freaking awesome. Flawed in so many ways design wise, but worked so well!

Reliability. I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Montero LTD years [purchased in mid-2001], w over 200k miles on it. My friends and coworkers used to tell me to buy a real car, an American car. But over the years, w many, MANY conversations about our vehicle repairs, theyāve come around. Each of them has gone through 2-4 vehicles each in the last 18, with numerous repairs. Itās always something. Howās that new F250? I love it! Any repairs? Nothing major, alternator, window motor, and a motor mount, but that was all covered by warranty, itās a great car. Me: My sunroof got stuck open in 2017, otherwise nothing. Not a single unscheduled non-maintenance repair in the first 16 years of ownership. Not bad considering Mitsubishiās like #4 in Japanese Vehicle reliability ratings.

Not trying to be an ass, but I firmly believe that YouTube is so very, very wrong in this instance. History CANNOT be varnished or made Politically Correct. Any attempt to edit the facts, is editing history, those eliminated historical facts that you have edited out are most likely to be that points that we will forget and be deemed to repeat. So...
WHAT CAN WE DO? Given that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, who do we contact, write to, call, etc. because in some instances, like yours, YouTube demonetization cannot be tolerated. Why not simply insert a warning at the start saying something like "WARNING, SOME JAPANESE PEOPLE MAY BE OFFENDED BY THE REPRESENTATION OF THESE EVENTS, HOWEVER IT IS HISTORY THAT DESERVES TO BE REMEMBERED." This video was NOT hateful, inaccurate or derogatory to anyone, it does not instigate violence, itās just facts. Perhaps a few thousand letters and emails might get YT to modify what they consider inappropriate. Please tell us how we can support you!

1. Please note: An UNSIGNED email is not enforceable, you quit, they say bye, you might not get anything at all. It is not valid.
2. Also of note as Iāve seen and experienced more than a few downsizings, those MOST EMPLOYABLE accept the buyout. Then the companies lay off those they think they can afford to lose, the least productive employees. Then again those that the company most wanted to keep, those with the best skills jump ship in the following months as they donāt have to work in a failing environment (company). The end result is what we used to call a āCorporate lobotomy,ā a āBrain Drain.ā The goal of the company is to survive, to run leaner, the ACTUAL result is a neutered company. Not joking, Iāve seen companies die after a layoff.

Ā @steinwaymodelbĀ ā It was a trial, of sorts. I applied for return of my funds, was given a court date, traveled to the court, with evidence, statements, copies of my checks and deposits, quicken reports showing consistent income and my $7,000 with āVegas vacayā on my withdrawal slip. The judge ruled against me, and said I needed a lawyer to appeal. I looked into it, and $10k was the up front cost, more if it went to trial, and to meā¦ as there was no way to recoup my loss, I gave up. The burden of proof is on you, I had to prove that my income was legitimate and lawfully earned, checks made out for rental properties was not in the judges opinion evidence that the money seized was not drug money. These are NOT like a criminal trial, there was no allegation of wrong doing, even the court case wasnāt me, it was the state against the money. They disassociate you from the seized income, IMO to just muddy the waters. The burden of proof is not on the state to prove anything, YOU must prove that the money seized WAS the exact cash they took AND that it was lawfully earned. The judge made several comments about me ānot having a jobā like managing 47 rental properties and flipping homes wasnāt a job. Cash deposits to a bank, and a withdrawal of funds does NOT prove that the money was lawfully earned, was mine and that the money they seized was actually the money I withdrew. Trust me, until you have experienced this, you wonāt understand the depth of the issue. Then later I find out that officers in that state actually personally benefit from the funds seized. They justify it by saying getting drug money off the streets, but the officers were incentivized to take the funds. And yes, the money was in a bank envelope with a withdrawal slip in the envelopeā¦ but that was meaningless.

BlueRiser ā The right to be, to exist, to live and work as every American does. This change by trump means that Trans people can be refused housing, jobs, terminated, denied medical care, etc., just because they are trans. Keep in mind, in non emergency situations medical personnel can say see someone else. This bill means if a trans person gets hit by a car or mugged, the ER doctor can say āI aināt touching thatā and walk away. People argue that is everyoneās right, but they can all do that now, except in emergency medical care. Now with Trumps help, if a trans person is beaten... the Doctor can just walk away. Someone at work finds out you arenāt a natural male, you can be terminated despite being a great employee for a decade. Thereās a long list. What they want it what you have, and it costs nothing to grant them the right to be an American.

āĀ @ftworthtexan9082Ā -- Re: "At what age do you believe killing of children should stop?" A. All. An unborn child is a life, any intervention to terminate the pregnancy is ending that life no matter how you spin it or count weeks. That said... the government has no say in forcing a mother to have a child unless they are willing to assume care for that child, cover medical and adoption, and if the laws against abortion put a mother or child's life in jeopardy, exceptions NEED to and MUST be made. As Texas law now stands, there are no special conditions or exceptions whatsoever. This makes the main issue an authoritarian one, Texas, Republicans, Abbott, all want to control the situation and prevent abortions, yet are unwilling to take any responsibility for the child, raising it, the expenses, or make allowances for abortion for medical reasons. This is authoritarianism at its worst.

Ā @ingeabrahamsen4684Ā ā All I know is from being at, around, in National Parks for years is when ever a nice well meaning tourist brings in a fawn, their first question to them is āDo you remember exactly where you found it?ā Their standing instruction is simple, take it back. Usually the ranger goes with them to make a note of where the fawn is to check on it the next few days. They will look it over, give it goats milk if they have any, and return it for the doe to find. Does leave their fawns at first light, and return at dusk, knowing that their best protection is to be quiet and unseen. They have no scent save the human touch which usually (not always) will not attract predators. The does will return to where they left their fawn for several days afterwards. Does get hit by cars, yes, but thatās a lot rarer than you might think. Just because we see a cute friendly hungry fawn does not mean it has been abandoned. Usually in fact the does will bolt at the first sight of humans to lead us away from their fawn thinking we are a predator. We have good intentions, but fawns have been raised just fine for millennia, the need for our intervention is very rare. Not joking, research anything I said and you will see it well documented. And yes, I was one of those wide eyed tourists once who found a deer and was educated by a ranger. I get the want to help, but our best advice is to check in on it, feed it water or goats milk, and LEAVE IT where it was, checking back for a few days. If it is there after a few days, great, adopt it. If it isnātā¦ donāt panic, Doeās smell us and will move the fawn to protect it.

Ā @gaboricaurteĀ ā What you see as weak, I see as diplomatic and professional. Think of it this way, would you have preferred an evil, lying old president that you couldnāt trust ā Or would you prefer a more honest, kindly old president? Keep in mind also, Ukraine was considering becoming a NATO member, but had not actually done so. Sadly, this condemned them. The USA, and other NATO countries organized to fight hostile takeovers just like Russia is doing to Ukraine now. Had they signed, they would have our backing, but they hadnāt. It is not our place to take up another countries battles, especially when we are not allied. Our hearts and prayers go out to them, but what would you have us do?

And that is why Iāve owned Japanese vehicles for decades. My first purchase was in college, the mileage of my Chevy caprice classic was killing me. Never thought about maintenance. Every 2-3 thousand miles (after 50k) I just assumed things broke, they always had. From alternators and water pumps to damn near everything. Then I accidentally bought a Mitsubishi, it was rebadged a Dodge Colt, which was a just a little Mitsubishi Mirage. That little thing was indestructible, cheap and tacky, and very small, but damn it was durable. I realized one day that I had 150k miles on it and nothing had broken. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Then I started thinking, breakdowns were a thing of the past! How many times had my dodgeās Fords and Chevyās needed maintenance and left me stranded, or stuck. Fluke, my friend said. So I bought a Jeep. Welcome to hell again. Iām on my 4th Japanese car, an 18 year old now, bought it new in 2001, a 2002 Mitsubishi Montero that just wont die. It has 245k miles on it. It had one issue under warranty at just under 100k miles, they replaced the cars computer board because it was idling rough. Itās first trip to the shop after that was in 2017 for a stuck sun roof, and in 2018 a gasket seal caused an oil leak. So at 18 years old itās starting to show itās age. But everything on it works and it drives great! At over 245,000 miles every original equipment component is still working 18 years later! No problems with the power windows, original alternator, original everything! Oh, almost forgot, I had to replace the left front headlight bulb twice, donāt know why. Iāve been looking for another vehicle for years, because this thing is getting old, my brother insists I need a dodge truck, my friend a ford truck... and Iām thinking a Toyota Tundra. š

As workers are replaced, there will be less people working, more crime as people gotta eat, so soon less people as the rich people with robots will use them to protect themselves. This means less and less products sold, less homes sold, less and less food needed, etc., until the rich, with their robots are the only buyers of food and household goods, electronics, etc. those with skills or money will be successful. Those without will become criminals and imprisoned.

Lee M ā Nothings wrong with ego. Unless you lie 15 times a day, steal from 30,000 people in the last decade, have 73 affairs in the last decade, have 22 rape accusations, 5 murders (abortions) in the last decade, are married to a former prostitute (model/escort), and call every negative press you disagree with, and still believe that you are "The GREATEST PRESIDENT EVER." Oh, this information, except for the recent 22 rape accusations came from the opposition papers used against Trump when he ran for President as an independent in 2012 by the Republican Party, they came from the GOP web site.
The real question is why in 2012 you thought the Article the Republicans published using this data to discredit Trump was relevant, it was Titled āTen Commandments Trump has Broken," listing little things like āThou shall not kill, Thou shall not lie (bear false witness), Though shall not commit adultery,ā was relevant then, disqualifying him as president but completely accepted him four years later in 2016 when he ran as a Republican? What happened to your Christian values between 2012 and 2016?

Is he though? Keep in mind his ācrimeā in the public eye was being gay. Spaceyās case had nothing to do with the #metoo movement, it was not a Harvey Weinstein moment where he unzipped his pants and asked āhow badly do you want this role?ā The kid went to a after show party at Spaceyās house, found liquor (was not served), got bored, found a bedroom and was dozing off while watching TV, when Spacey entered drunk, touched him and said essentially āyouāre cute.ā To which the kid replied āYouāre not, youāre OLD!ā And Spacey replied āItās time for you to leave.ā No assault, no sex, no nada. When Rapp brought it up publicly, Spacey apologized for making him feel uncomfortable, adding he didnāt remember the incident. Rapp reinforced his statement many times that there was no assault, no sex, just touched him to wake him up and paid him a compliment. There were multiple accusations after the news broke, including 2 police investigations. The common denominators for all claims were āall over 18, Spacey made a pass, the person said no, they went their separate ways. At what point do people wake up and say āNO BIG DEAL?ā

Ā @saber1992Ā ā I used to agree with you. Then I found out that anyone considering going through sex reassignment surgery must go through many years of councling, therapy, hormones, required to live, dress, act as the person/sex they think they are (this means potential job loss, harassment, etc.) before they can actually have the surgery done. This is NOT an easy process, it is not fun, these people must go through and endure hell to become what they think they are. I get it, I DO NOT GET OR UNDERSTAND IT EITHER. But I donāt have to, itās their life. As far as sports competition goes, in the name of fairness you are correct, itās not fair to other women at all. But it is NOT āPC bullshitā to grant others the right to live THEIR life as they wish.

Robert E. Lee ā āNow you (Dems) support deportation. You Dems are all hypocrites.ā Please donāt be a dolt. How naive and gullible can you be? Dems arenāt against deportation, we arenāt anti-American, we arenāt what your ignorant brethren have convinced each other we are. No one WANTS to kill babies or destroy America. Trump has instituted a ZERO TOLERANCE Immigration policy that has criminalized ALL immigrants, and separates parents and children from each other. People are dying because of this. How is it that you donāt see the parallels between Trump and Hitler? BOTH demonize a marginalized segment of society, Hitler targeted Jews, Trump Mexicans and all immigrants. They rose to power by convincing the masses that they (Jews/Mexicans/immigrants) are the reason for their problems, they are to blame. Then convince the populace that THEY (Hitler/Trump) are the man with the plan to set it right, then they implemented the plan so their supporters will feel vindicated. Hitler had concentration camps and Trump has immigration camps where parents were sent one way, kids another, many will never ever see each other again. I know you think you can lie and rewrite history, but we, you and I, every single American is an immigrant or descended from one. Our ancestors just came, landed and started new lives, WE ARE ALL ILLEGALS. Yes, much different times today, security is important ā WE ALL (DEMS & REPS) KNOW THIS. But Democrats want to keep the criminals, the terrorists out. Get this through your brain, MEXICANS are no more criminals than you or I... well you or at least your bigoted namesake was as you fought for slavery.
Want to know what a REAL hypocrite looks like? Find a mirror.

Ā @ezacher4634Ā ā Half true. VP Biden did indeed do what you say, but not the way Trump spun it. Newsflash: TRUMP LIES. Biden did get permission from Obama to withhold aid to Ukraine, it was all upfront, and not for personal gain. Look at the timeline and state department notes to confirm. Their equivalent to our Federal Prosecutor was corrupt, and investigated nothing and no one. Zero cases brought over several years. Biden asked that they replace him with a new prosecutor, KNOWING that one of the pending cases was one not investigated into his son. The action opened up his son to Ukrainian prosecution. They did, and while it looks/looked bad/rotten as it gets, found no āproofā of guilt, and they were unable to go to trial.
Also note that Trumps phrasing in the recordings clearly said āANNOUNCE THAT YOU ARE INVESTIGATING HUNTER BIDEN,ā not actually do an investigation which had already been done. Trump didnāt do this for altruistic reasons like Biden, he did it to use a foreign nation to sway voters in the 2020 election a month or so in the then future. And before you think me some troll, research what I have said, verify it for yourself. Itās all true.

Raoul Fleckman ā Actually, Yes. Republicans used to be a party of faith, remember Trumps run for President in 2012 as an independent? The Republican Party published several opposition papers on trump noting his abortions, lawsuits, affairs and his wifeās model-escort history. These were issues that went against the Republican values in 2012, but meant absolutely nothing since Trump switched to the Republican Party for his 2016 presidential run. Now we know more, these were facts that the Republican Party garnered from trumps legal forms filings, and his statements have been fact checked and he has been proven to lie an average of 15 times per day throughout his presidency. Remember a little thing about thou shall not kill, lie, commit adultery etc. in the Ten Commandments? Want to read something seriously chilling? Research the differences between the Repās anti-abortion stance and the democrats pro-life stance. You will find that the Demās stance saves more lives, NOW. However the Republicans fight it tooth and nail. The issue isnāt murder, or killing babies as you state it, itās really about forcing values on people and has nothing to do with saving lives. Republicans donāt care about saving babies, just making sure their values are law, pushing abortions back into back room abortion clinics and coat hanger abortions by non-medical personnel. Iām not joking, or trolling, look it up. If you are a person of faith as I am, you will be nauseous. So yes, republicans preach faith, Democrats exercise it.

Doug, "AUTO METAL" meant that the Tape player automatically recognizes āmetalā tapes. Way back then you could purchase āmetalā particle or metal treated tapes that had a much more rich sound the caveats were that 1. You needed a tape player that had the ability to play the metal tapes AND 2. You should NEVER use metal playing mode on a standard tape, it would ruin your tapes. So an Auto Metal tape player automatically sensed the tape type, w/o your forgetting to hit the metal mode off to avoid ruining standard tapes.
Re: Mitsubishiās turbo, you didnāt mention that it had a graduated turbo which was actually very cool. Normal turbos kicked in at about 5,000 rpm as you mentioned and gave you a kick in the bum to redline. Mitsubishiās turbo kicked in partially early on, then ramped up as you increased RPMās, giving you more thrust at lower revās, earlier, without lagging the engine and did so much more smoothly.
All Wheel Steering, You mentioned this, but didnāt mention that at low speeds it turned AGAINST or opposite the front to decrease your turning radius. At high speeds the rear turned WITH the front (8Ā°) to keep your vehicles track straighter. For example as you swerved around a slower moving car, quickly changing lanes, you kind of went sideways greatly reducing normal vehicles tendency to fishtail.
You mentioned riding on rails as you cornered Not sure if that one had the original tires, but if so, or they bought the same, they were $2,000 to replace and were unique. The sides were like an upside down V. For ex: rim at top, pavement at bottom a normal tire looks like this; (___). The 3000 GT VR4ās looked like this; /____\, putting more rubber on the pavement.
You also might note the 3000GT VR4 has one of the most interestingly worded warnings then a recall ever. It roughly went like this: "Warning! Potential for transmission failure. When the vehicle is being pushed to itās designed limits, when it is being exercised to its maximum potential, during periods of extremely high stress and speeds, the transmission may seize." Think about that. Youāre going down your favorite twisting mountain road, engine screaming, shifting itās AWD 320 HP twin turbocharged engine and transmission wildly, taking the corners at high speed, breaking into the curves, accelerating out of the curves, engine screaming... and the transmission locks up. All 4 wheels lock as your transmission seizes. Not making this shit up. š³

LuisOrtiz231 ā Gus Kenworthy has been a positive force for change his entire life. Iāve been aware of him since he was a kid, totally awesome skier. As mentioned in the prior post he competed with a broken thumb AND a hematoma. A hematoma sounds minor, ehh just a broken blood vessel, a bruise. But they can be extremely painful, and have you seen the picās of his hip area during the Olympics? That little bruise, hematoma, was Frickinā HUGE! It started at elbow level and went down to mid thigh on his side. And he competed, he tried, and I can only imagine his sadness at his performance. He didnāt wimp out, he manned up. Tens of millions of people were in awe of him and will remember his name for the rest of their lives. He is an amazing inspiration everyone, not to mention being a kick in the pants for the entire world for being out, proud, and literally redefining the gay stereotype. He will probably stop more suicides than we will ever know because he is such an amazing person. Kids worldwide can see someone they can identify with as a phenomenal person who just happens to be gay. Which brings us to you, Iāve already forgotten your name, and donāt care.

This reminds me of the Colorado Lesbian wedding cake lawsuit fiasco. The Bakery was in a gay neighborhood, decided on THE day of delivery that he wouldnāt do it, got sued, lost on the contractural issue (order placed, accepted, deposit taken, receipt given), and as he appealed, lost appealed, lostā¦ all the way to SCOTUS, the case morphed into a religious freedoms case. So he won, didnāt have to pay the woman her $100? (or whatever) deposit back, but LOST HIS BUSINESS because all his gay customers went elsewhere. š¤£

Think about what this gentleman asserts, he he was there, so Iām not casting doubts on his words. Two shots, maybe three, all fired at the exact same time, front entry AND a rear entry, as well as a chest wound. That is some serious stopwatch, coordinated attack from multiple locations and at the almost exact moment. Am I the only one who who muttered a four letter word? This kills the single shooter theory, kills the single gunman action theory, it means this was an organized event, an assassination by experts, not the act of a madman. Holy hell!

Humor me, youāre out of town, a neighbor sees a strange man at your house and calls 911. When the police show up the man immediately says I donāt live here, I live across the street. [Waitā¦] You return and find out youāve been robbed, that the police showed up, caught the guy, but have no clue who he was. They asked for his ID and he refused, and they let him go. How would you feel then? If the police have a reasonable suspicion of a crime (911 call), they have the right to ask for ID, or detain the man to determine if his story is correct, determine if a crime is being committed. ALL THEY DID WAS VERIFY WHO HE WAS.

Ā @billveek9518Ā ā Seriously? Think about thisā¦ where or when else in history if a company said something that disagreed with the states position, would that company be attacked by the state? Disney spends an estimated $60 million per year providing the services the state just took control of. Thatās one of the reasons living in under the Disney umbrella makes property values so high. Perfect everything citywide, picture perfect grounds, never a pothole, no graffiti anywhere, no trash, papers, bottles anywhere to be seen. The surrounding cities just got handed an estimated $30 million dollar bill without any increase in taxes, the Disney neighborhoods WILL become just like every other mismanaged city, property values will normalize. Disney just saved $60 million a year, because the Governor got upset at Disney executives. And DeSantis is planning a Presidential run, think about that. Say something the state doesnāt like, and that business is penalized. No more free speech, no more freedoms, they will throw you in jail for teaching unapproved material not approved by the states. Whatās next? SS troops entering your house because you voiced an opinion to someone? Arrested for not Saluting a government official? Missed church, get whipped? Speak out again bigotry and youāre put into concentration camps that few will survive?

Ā @wesleyhitchcock4414Ā ā Every MAGA Trumpet I know, many are my relatives, believe everything Trump says, argue that he has the right to do anything as Trump was put in place by God, God has blessed all of Trumps actions, every crime, every lie, not an issue at all. They have literally prayed for him over dinner, prayed āin Trumps name we prayā at the end of prayers. Trump is GODāS representative, there are no valid arguments against Trump as this is a faith based issue. If you disagree, they will quickly counter with āClearly YOU are not a Christian, why are you even here?ā

Dear inšās ā If you love your country and Jesus, why are you putting your faith in Trump who has committed felonies, tried to stop an election certification BY FORCE, committed adultery, has an open relationship with Melania, lied over 30,000 times while in office and tried to subvert an election by fraudulently replacing states electoral voters? And if you had read the Republican plans in Project 2025, intends on crippling democracy in this nation, destroying free press, deportations or imprisonment for everyone that they donāt like. If you WANT this, move to Russia.

Biographics ā (edit, might be more appropriate on one of your other channels.). Please consider asking your team to look into modern resurrection of once thought dead viruses thanks to global warming. The video I watched showed a map of the world and focused on the areas once frozen but now thawing thanks to global warming. In those areas of once frozen for millennia areas, they had (I forget the colors) blue shaded dots for bubonic plague, red for anthrax, green for Spanish Flu, etc. larger dots represented more deaths. The dots are all over the globe, representing small clusters of once thought dead viruses, that are warming up and infecting living animals and people. The kicker was at the end... ALL of those viruses were prevalent before modern travel. They took the incubation period, projected the infection rate given air travel, and put BIG DOTS OVER ALL OVER THE GLOBE. This is not something to panic over, but it sure as hell is a way of reminding us of what could happen. š± Keep up the good work guys!

Ā @alisonfraser8231Ā -- Wowza! I know it can happen anywhere, but NYC is a thief's mecca. Over the years I have a dozen stories. Dinner, one of our business contacts realized his wallet was missing, and he KNEW when it happened, just didn't realize his pocket had been picked until the check came. He came in, was passed, touched and distracted by a jovial customer leaving, later no wallet. Having coffee I've been alarmed when patrons came in, unloaded their jackets and bag/duffle/backpack to reserve a table, get coffee, come back and the backpack or ? was missing. Twice I was right next to them, didn't notice anyone grab it and I am fairly aware of my surroundings. We are talking a nearby person just waiting and watching until people seem distracted, noise, conversation, anything, and quick as a flash get up to leave with someone else's bag. I get crime is everywhere, but in NYC they are freaky good.

Why is it that the Colorado Bakery Wedding cake fiasco is so misunderstood? Letās over simplify this:
1. A gay woman enters a bakery that she has frequented for years in her neighborhood, and places an order for a wedding cake. The order was placed, a deposit left, the women got a receipt. This is commonly known in Laymans terms as a ācontract.ā
2. Five weeks go by, and on the day of the wedding one of the women stopped by to pick up her cake that was ordered previously. She was told āno we canāt do that.ā The homophobic owner, they had a bakery shop in a gay neighborhood, changed his mind at the last minute and said no I am not gonna make that cake and put two ladies on top of it.
3. She sued the bakery at a local level, and won on the contractual issue. Order placed, order accepted, then on the day the cake was to be provided the shop changed its mind. The bakery shop owner went on the news and changed the story from he took in order to he refused an order from a lesbian couple. The newscast gained him notoriety and the case took on life of its own.
4. New Lawyers Filed an appeal and lost. The case got more notoriety, and the funds for the bakery increased as it got national notoriety as as a religious rights issue. The bakers lawyers appealed again at the state level and again loss on a contractual issue.
5. The case reached the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court world that the bakery did have the right to choose its clientele and as a business could deny a order for any reason whatsoever. However this was not the case! It was never the case! It started and was a contractual issue, the bakery excepted a contract to produce product, and cake. And they failed to deliver the cake on the day of the wedding. They had five weeks to decline the order and informed them that the order was not excepted, and the bakery did not. The bakery waited until the day of delivery to cancel the contract and was sued as a result of that on the contractual issue.

You just gotta love American Politics, we allow all Telecommunications companies to create a "Telecom-PAC," (PAC is a Political Action Committee) which they in turn encourage their employee's to donate to. We allow those companies to then reimburse their employee's expenses, which essentially renders the cap's, the maximum a company can donate to political campaigns irrelevant. Those combined Telecommunications companies PAC is one of the biggest and most active in the nation, and work with politicians in every state, and at a national level to pass legislation that profits those telecommunications companies. The result is laws passed outlawing public utilities from getting into anything that the Telecom industry doesn't want them to, so the telecom companies face less competition and can charge higher prices. Then, again based on laws passed, those companies are under no obligation to provide anything faster than dialup service to people in rural areas. Why? Because the cost per mile per customer is much higher outside of a densely populated city. So the telecommunications companies have literally lobbied national and state politicians to lock up the telecommunications market, ending competition, allowing them to charge higher prices and deliver less service, by paying politicians massive perks for voting the way Telecommunications companies want them to. So in America, in a free market, telecommunications companies have defeated America's "Free Market" by passing laws that protect them against competition. Did I miss anything?

Tobias Forge ā More moral than most politicians? Letās look at some facts; Ran as an independent but lost due to his 73 known affairs and 3000 lawsuits mostly for failure to pay for services rendered (all from the last decade, based on his legal teams filings), his wifeās web pages in Russia for her modeling/escort services offering ācompanionship to clients of means onlyā are still out there to view. Then he ran for President, and won, and the Republican Party believing he was a Christian forgave him ALL of his faults. They continue to support him, despite continued affairs, and a verified 6-12 lies per day. At some point the Republicanās sold their soul to the devil believing it was gods will. Republicans used to be people of faith, it was self evident. Now, nothing trump does including collusion with a foreign nation to manipulate an election, affairs, lies, treason, NOTHING matters. What happened?

Ā @noigelskram2435Ā ā Ahh, got it. You blame the economy on the Democrats even though economists have proven that falsehood. Youāre a sheep driving without your brain in gear. Do a little research, study how HUGE the US economy is, and how it takes years for any change to have any visible effect. Fox and others point out inflation, and blame Biden, not the trillions we dumped into the economy due to Covid as a factor. You point at how low gas was under Trump, and how high now, without thinking the low was during Covid when demand was low, so prices fell. As the nation recovered demand rose, oil companies raked in 3-4 times their prior years profitsā¦ because they could. Yet you dolts blame the Democrats in power who have nothing to do with oil company price gouging. Tell me, do you take a baseball bat to your refrigerator when the store is out of milk, blaming your refrigerator because the store was out of stock? Serious question, because your logic is hosed. š”

Ā TracchofyreĀ ā Maybe... But the experience made me realize Iād never do that to my kids, LOL! And my dad was kinda right, we raised animals for food, not pets. I think my bigger point in sharing that was that some animals become so much more. Weād have these fireside dinners outside every so often, and that chicken would just hop up in my lap and fall asleep. It was kinda cool. And raising that cow, from the day it was born I knew it was different. It just seemed so much smarter and friendlier than any of the others. Weād leave for school, and it would come over to watch me leave, Iād stop, scratch her head and everything just seemed better. We had a bull that became a little hostile at times, and I remember being in the field, I walked in to say hello to her, and up comes this angry bull. She never let that bull get close to me, wherever side he went to she was between us. She stayed with me all the way to the fence line. People say cows are dumb, and that may be true, but that one, she was a sweetheart. So gentle, so friendly, and like that day in the field, protective even. IMHO she deserved to live a long and happy life.

fifi24able fifi ā Yeah... Obama was a joke with his legal records in the decade prior to his presidency showing 73 affairs and extramarital affairs some with prostitutes, 5 abortions paid for, 30,000 people defrauded, a history of tax evasion, not paying vendors and help. Then thereās the current 22 rape accusations, 4 marriages the current one to a former model escort (prostitute) who he spent 4 million on scrubbing her history from Russian web sites. Thereās also the what is it now... 20,000 lies told just while in office? How horrible! Wait... that wasnāt Obama, he was married ONCE, had 2 daughters, and he and his wife were Harvard graduates. Which President was that? What was his name.... hmmmmm...

Grady Broyles ā Yes, But you are talking ZONING rules, not cost of housing. They are two different things. Think of it this way... You own a laundromat that the city values at 4 million, and you pay property and income taxes on. I would guess that 20 years ago, a laundromat was a viable business, now... not so profitable. This is America, you must adapt or your business will go under. So you look st your options and realize the best or only option is convert the property to housing, there is a high demand and you can sell or rent the units. You jump through all the hoops, and even the community is PLEADING for more housing, the community fights him at every step, because the housing would be higher than what the poorer community people can or want to pay. Your logic says "Just require him to make more affordable housing." But housing is a profit and loss business. Land+construction+interest+utilities costs all combine to equal a value, divide that by the number of units to sell and/or rent and you get the amount you need to either make your money back, or rent the units for to make your money back over the long term. Clearly there is more profit to be made by converting the property to housing than as a laundromat, or the guy wouldnāt have spent a million bucks on this. But you are missing the point, this business owner doesnāt control the price, and the city has zero right to say no... UNLESS they are willing to help him decrease his costs. The locals WANT more housing... but want it cheap. While McDonalds has some low priced items, the have to keep their lights on. Can you go into a restaurant and say, $11.99 for a burger, fries and a coke? No way, you have to sell that to me for a buck because thatās all I have. They will tell you to leave or they will call the police. Housing costs what it costs because that guy has a right to make money, if you canāt afford it, donāt buy it.

Frank Bronzi ā Been there, done that. Had a gun fight outside that lasted over 10 minutes. I called 911, she told me to speak up or turn the TV down because she couldnāt hear me, and I responded āTV? THAT IS GUNFIRE!ā It stopped eventually and I assumed the police response was fast. I finished dinner, watched some TV, and went to bed. 5 hours later at 2 am I answer my door to find an officer āYeah, you reported gun fire?ā I said Yes, hours ago, think theyāre gone now.ā And she replied āI have a family, I donāt rush into this neighborhood.ā The police arenāt here to save you, they are here to take your report. We are on our own.

Patch Clan ā As a Caucasian man, I politely disagree. It is my hope that everyone of any race or color would get the same benefit of the doubt. Yes, I know itās not a perfect world, and that blacks do get convicted more often and with longer/more severe sentences than other races. But please know that many whites, such as myself, see the injustices and are deeply angered by them. Itās not a perfect world, the only thing we can do is to try and make it better ā To be part of the solution and not be part of the problem. Please know that many of us "whites" see you (all persons, irrelevant to race) as brothers, friends and family members, and it saddens us greatly when injustices happen. That said, I hope that this trash (you may read white trash if you wish, but I dislike that phrase too) gets the death penalty, dies slowly and painfully, and spends eternity in hell. Yes, I know that might sound harsh and unchristian ā Iām working on being a better person... Iām just not there yet.

Dogbite007 ā Iāve known a few people convicted of sexual offense and are now sex offenders. One was convicted of a crime when he was thirteen and was tried as an adult. 13! One man was convicted of rape for having sex, for the first time, with his soon to be wife. The wife admitted it was consensual, but was against her previously stated religious beliefs, and so she called the police three days after the event. He is now a sex offender, and they are now married.
Hereās the thing, every situation is different, every case, every individual, different. Some are bad, and repeat offenders who deserve the restrictions. But there are others who are not a risk to society, who suffer the same lifetime, yes LIFETIME classification, which inhibits their ability to survive even after their sentences have been served.
I was once like you. OMG! A sex offender! I donāt want them in my neighborhood, near my kids schools, near me! But as Iāve learned more about the PEOPLE, I realize the system is flawed, seriously flawed. There are entire industries built and sustained around either keeping sex offenders in check, or being paid to council, rehabilitate them, with a direct need to keep them in the program to perpetuate their income. An example of this was my 90 year old neighbor who was being assisted in his home getting a shower and made a pass at the home health care aide. She reported it, her company called the police, who investigated, and he admitted it thinking he had done nothing wrong. Because it was an unwanted advance he was ordered to undergo counseling. The phycologist there gave him a visual test, and told the 90 year old guy to click on the screen here, or there if he was attracted to them, and here to move forward to the next picture in the series. He was told point blank that if he wasnāt attracted to any of them he would have to retake the test, and it wasnāt cheap. The result? My 90 year old neighbor who knows NOTHING about computers, ever, never even had a cell phone, was branded a pedophile, and is now a sex offender for life. He didnāt want to 'fail' the test so he said to me in the car on the way home that he had selected a few, he thinks. The kicker? HE IS LEGALLY BLIND! Has been for 20 years since he had a stroke. They gave a blind man, who can barely make out light and dark shapes in front of him a VISUAL test and branded him a sex offender. No debate, as he had already pleaded guilty to the "offense" of making a pass at his home health care aide, and now he is a PEDOPHILE. A registered sex offender.
So your comments that they deserve to be jobless and sleeping as indigents in parks under highway underpasses kind of bothers me. I agree, SOME are dangerous, and NEED to be monitored. But the efforts to keep the public safe, the system, is seriously hosed. To label all sex offenders criminals is just as wrong as labeling all oriental people smart, blacks dumb or criminals, etc., Iāve seen the system, and met a few of them, and they are just people sometimes, as imperfect as you and I. And no one, no one ever should be forced to live under an overpass in tents without running water and without sewage, with no means to support themselves.

2112Nightshift ā Interesting, But from what Iāve read your information is slightly flawed. The ālawsuitā not the original complaint, dealt with; 1. Customer placed an order for a wedding cake. 2. Business accepted the order. 3. Customer paid, and the business accepted the customers deposit. 4. A month and two weeks passed. 5. On the day of delivery, the cake company said "Oh NO! Not for lesbians." The media hyped the equal rights issue, the court case was won on the contractural issue, then the SCOTUS ruled based on the āReligious Rightsā issue.
But please note, "Religious Rights" were NEVER the issue. Any business anywhere in the USA can refuse customers for any reason. No shirt, no service. No one EVER can force a business to serve you, save emergency medical care. No Church will ever "HAVE TO" MARRY AN LGBT š³ļøāš couple. There are churches and businesses everywhere who WANT their business. All the news on this issue was just religious hoopla. Donāt shoot me, I am a person of faith also, Iām just stating facts.
Everyone screaming this or that, right wrong, PLEASE WAKE UP! This was all a non-issue from the very beginning. š

Raymond Brown ā Please tell me you know nothing Trump does or says matters. This is a faith based issue, nothing else. Republicans think they and their cause Godly, Democrats not. My pastor refers to Democrats as āGodless baby killing sexual deviants intent on destroying America and Christianity.ā People like Mike the Snake above firmly believe this, and thatās why anything and anyone who doesnāt unconditionally support Trump and the Republican Party are false news, horrible, terrible, etc. Anyone who criticizes Trump is not Christian, darn near inhuman. We donāt have two parties, we have right and wrong. Thatās why they believe that all things are permissible as their cause is righteous. Lies, deception, theft, any crime whatsoever is not just allowed, itās blessed by God, sanctioned by God. Point out ANY fault, lie, crime, manipulative thing any republican does bad and they will respond like Mike the Snake, NO! NOT WRONG! Trumps adultery, his murders, thefts, lies, prostitute use is all forgiven, sanctified or justified by God, he can do all things. (Rough Quote from 1 Corinthians) even though that is a perversion of Godās words in the Bible, they believe themselves to be true, and that the scripture meant to say that sinners can be saved and enter the kingdom of heaven, actually means they can do anything under Gods direction and blessing. They (Republicans, Trump and Mike the Snake) donāt realize they have been deceived, donāt realize they are worshiping a human antichrist, and donāt see themselves to be the sinners and reprobates they are.

Sonny Tuft ā¢ā¢ā¢ Trump doesnāt have record anything or record wage growth, he hasnāt done squat for the environment and he has not done a single thing to assist worldwide homosexual freedoms in the world! What planet are you talking about? Every economist and anyone that studied economics in college will tell you that the changes a president makes arenāt seen during his presidency, but the next, or possibly the third. Economic changes donāt happen immediately, it takes decades sometimes to see the effects. Trump made a statement, note the phrase "a STATEMENT" that he had cleaned up the oceans. But NOTHING, NOT A THING was actually done! When I was 9 I made a statement that "I had saved the world," but did I really? And you do know that "HATE CRIMES" have tripled over Trump's presidency donāt you? Why? Thanks to his continued hate filled rhetoric. Letās look at Trump's legacy; Kavenaugh appointment to the SCOTUS, a known drunk and rapist. Jeff Sessions, a proud and avowed racist and bigot appointed as Attorney General. Mike Pence, an transphobic, homophobic and female-phobic selected as his VP. And yet YOU sing Trump's praises? What kind of a sick, twisted, messed up, backwards person are you?

001 002 ā Have you actually listened to Yang? I was like you, I thought Yang was promising golden parachutes to the masses to get votes. But his ideas actually have merit! Consider the automation on the horizon, retail or any cash register type of jobs gone, taxi and truck drivers are going to be history, manufacturing and meat production jobs going soon, tech jobs are even becoming so specialized they are declining. We ARE going to reach a point soon where no one will be able to afford to buy anything because so many Americans will be jobless. What he is talking about is not welfare, and frankly I donāt see his ideas attractive at this time, his plan is to tax industryās for jobs lost due to automation, and distribute them. Sounds bonkers until you THINK about it. Ever wonder why Amazon and Apple are so profitable? Ever wonder why auto makers are profitable again, less and less people employed to do the work, more automation. Not sure where you are in this country, but every store I go to now has only a few human cashiers left, most are self check out lanes. And we arenāt just talking grocery stores, Sams Club, Walmart, even fast food joints are now offering you to pay at the order point with a card to "expedite" your order. You donāt have to pay a machine but once, no insurance, no unemployment, no benefits, no lunches, no breaks, no vacations.

I donāt think most people realize that this is no longer a political issue, it is a faith based issue. Reagan began the trend by courting evangelicals, Republicans added Anti-Abortion to their mission list, then the Bushās, Clinton had is āindiscretionā and then Obama did two cardinal sin level things wrong, He ended Donāt askāDonāt tell, and then came out in favor for marriage equality. My pastor SCREAMS from the pulpit "If you are a Christian, and you do not vote Republican, then you ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN!" Which always gets a thousand people saying amen, clapping, and sometimes a standing ovation. This isnāt a political issue anymore... itās the Godly against the unGodly.

W. Herschell Jamison II ā W. Churchill also said that when he was considering surrender to Germany because his country, his people had suffered so much with no end in sight. Then one day he was unable to reach his offices (or was it a meeting with parliament or the Queen?) and he had to take the subway system, which he was completely unfamiliar with. He asked, people helped, conversation ensued, and the people in the car changed his mind, surrender was no longer an option, he found the people much stronger than he had ever imagined, he was shocked at their absolute refusal to consider surrender, and that they urged him to continue the fight no matter what happened to them, ENGLAND was what mattered.
Please remember that a democracy, like any government has its weaknesses... but also its strengths. Never underestimate the will of the people. What causes a democracy to fail is when the people feel they have no say, that the government is not for or of the people anymore.

Ā @sillystuff6247Ā ā True, they did have some smaller products towards the end. And true, we had 5 VAX systems, and all were huge, but not technically a mainframe as they only supported about 50 concurrent user sessions each at any one time. And yes, had to check but Compaq did buy DEC at the end of its life. I just remember DEC trying to sell us smaller systems to replace our larger systems for hundreds of thousands each, when we had just done a cost analysis for multiple smaller systems in-house for a 10th of the price. We all sat there after the pitch and wondered why? DECās gift was their software and support, they could have offered ānon-proprietaryā or even just competitively priced hardware but with their software and support at any reasonable price but they didnāt. We had no problem spending a hundreds of grand annually for support and maintenance as they were critical systems. But the hardware they were offering was literally over a hundred thousand dollars more than a similar PC box running Unix. We wanted to throw money at them because their service was spectacular and their people smart and well trained, but we felt taken advantage of, one manager called it corporate rape, we laughed but he wasnāt wrong. Had they rethought their model, as SUN could have also, they would still be a top contender IMHO.

Alexlfm ā Yes, it would cost hundreds of billions to update the entire nations rail. But they are talking billions to just continue operating the existing train service. And we are not talking about replacing the entire nations railways. The plan that was scrapped was to have a high speed corridor between the east and west coasts, after that the major inter city railways could be upgraded. In this way you could have more expensive HSR non-stop LA to NYC fares/routes, and other trains that would exit the high speed corridor and travel at normal speeds to the largest cities. This would mean overnight service from the west coast to the Midwest or day trips such as SFO-PHX, LAX-DFW or whatever. Then later upgrade the tracks between major cities, PHX-El Paso, El Paso to DFW or DFW-HOU, etc. Have you traveled by train? This train was remarkably full, that is not always the case. To be profitable Amtrak needs more passengers. To lure more passengers they must be both time and cost effective. Yes, everyone knows that new or replacement HSR tracks would be both expensive and a bureaucratic nightmare. But if China, Japan and Europe can do it, why canāt we? This is NOT an impossible task. Do you want to know why rail doesnāt go from most major cities to the neighboring airports? Because ground transportation companies fight it and lobby against it because it 'might' reduce their revenue. Do you know why the high speed rail corridor plan never got off the drawing boards? Because the airline and bus industries lobbied to defeat it. High speed rail 'might' affect their profits.

This is mental illness by definition. Letās be clear what he is talking about on his initial statements, that they came after him from day one. True. Here is WHY: Hillaryās campaign servers were broken into, documents released. Their internal IT group hit a wall after following the trail to Russia. They asked for and received authorization to hire a former CIA agent stationed in and familiar with Russia. His work led to two firms, one hacker enterprise and one hacker/advertising company, and he found checks and traced the money and calls back to the Trump campaign. The Investigator turned the info over to Hillaryās IT people, who with Hillaryās approval, turned over what they had to the FBI. The FBI found the data credible, and opened up an investigation. This is where Trumps campaign phones, data, texts, etc., were monitored. This was part of a criminal investigation into Trump and his campaign staffs actions. Trump spun this as Hillary had his phones tapped. BULLSHIT.

Ā @662SSIPPIĀ ā He Who? Were you high all of the time in school, or just part of the time? I assume you mean Biden is ruining the country. Letās see, Trump lied about Covid, costing an estimated 450,000 lives and bringing the nations economy to a crawl. Then he started a trade/tariff war with China, causing a chip and product shortage that has effected the entire world. āWHAT?!ā You say? America is one of the biggest consumers and producers in the world, we buy parts and components from China, build bigger better products from them and sell those products worldwide. So the chip and products shortage didnāt just effect the US market, but every market in the world that buys American products. But because Trump set the stage, caused this entire mucked up situation you blame Biden. Seriously. You also blame Biden for Oil prices in the USA and worldwide, yet oil production has remained unchanged under Biden. Biden did cancel FUTURE oil fracking on national forest lands, and cancelled the keystone oil pipeline to bring unusable dirty oil from Canada. The pipeline was just started, and wouldnāt have pumped its first gallon of oil until 2024. But the cost of oil, dependent on futures (capitalism), is somehow Bidenās fault instead of Trumps fault. So how about you support YOUR assertion that āhe (Biden?) is ruining the damn countryā before I answer, as I will not make my answer when prefaced by your question based on a false assumption. Any answer I gave would be giving your false statement validity.

Terri Sargent āHow do you not get this? This is s religious issue. Ever since the Republican Party took the side of anti-abortion, anti-gay rights, anti-marriage equality, etc., and then Democratic Party came out as Pro womanās rights, pro gay rights, pro marriage equalityā¦ It is a religious issue. Republicans believe that the Republican Party is godly, therefore Trump is godly. They also believe that because the Democratic Party supports abortion, that all Democrats are ungodly, unchristian, and cannot be trusted or believed or even associated with. There is nothing, absolutely NOTHING that Trump can say or do that in any changes this belief. Trump is godly, Trump is forgiven, nothing that he says or does matters beyond he is a Republican.

Ā @TheCh0sen0neisawesomĀ ā Please tell me when in our history of the entire United States have we ever been in a position like this? Half the nation believes lies. Trump has been proven to work with foreign countries to influence our elections which is treason. No Mueller report clearly stated and outlined exactly what he did. But Trump denied it and when the Mueller report said in its summary āwe have found ample evidence of both collusion and obstruction, however we are unable to prosecute a sitting president at this time.ā And the very next day Trump announced that he had been found innocent, exonerated, which was an absolute lie. Now everything in the news is a lie it seems, every Trumpet can no longer be trusted to tell you the time. This isnāt being rewritten by the victors, itās real time! Trump was told mid 2020 he would likely lose in November, then on January 6th, after 9 months of repeating over and over that the only was he could lose if the evil Dems cheated. He spurred his followers to go to the capital and use force (the weak never win), he tried to use the National Guard first, then the US Military to āSupport his people at the Capitolā and failed. This was after trying to use every trick in the book including the SCOTUS to overthrow the election. Now yāall are saying it was just a peaceful protest, Trumps innocent, you Dems are overreacting in an event where the country was attempted to be overthrown. HELLO?!

Ā @robertharris4100Ā ā Sorry, I have rental properties, I GET the save-a-buck mentalityā¦ I really do. But that thing is gross, letās assume itās stained, and wonāt wash off, but because of the area and quality of renters you get, you donāt want to spend $600+ to replace it. Been there, done that. One case the front was kicked in repeatedly, but for $100 a carpenter took some vinyl paneling (large sheets), put some floor leveling gunk on the doors overnight, and the next day put the paneling on to that roughly matched the cabinets, looked great! Another case a fridge had the front doors spray painted, and although we took the paint off, it looked horrible. We bought some āchalkboard paintā and took the doors off and painted them. The fridge looked great, black doors and sides, and they could leave notes on it. Took several cans and cost about $50. My first thought is what kind of renter are you going to rent to that finds that acceptable? š³

Ed Denoy ā Yes, it can get messy quick. But the man who took the kid to the parents just grabbed the kid by the back of his shirt because he started to run away. The kid wasnāt hurt, and once he was held stopped trying to get away. Before you start correcting me how wrong that was, let me share another story. My coworkers son was joint custody after their divorce, and both parents tried to make their son like them better, anything he asked for was a yes. Late? Rude? Ran across the car rooftops at the fathers apartment complex (thousands in damages), nothing was a problem. The kid was spoiled and entitled. Trouble is he turned 18, and got smart with the wrong person, then pissed off a cop, then attacked his parole officer. The kid is 22 now and looks like heās 40, missing teeth, low paying job, and now he is polite and nice, because he found out the hard way some people should not be messed with.
Sometimes people AND KIDS need to be grabbed by the collar and told "NO! That is unacceptable behavior." Before you get all SJW on me, my point is we try as parents to prepare our kids for life in the real world. Teach a kid they canāt be touched, and like my coworkers son who screamed "F' YOU A*HOLE!" At a guy who was in his way. Then he screams how heās been wronged when the guy pummeled his face to a pulp. Yes, we shouldnāt hit kids, but sometimes a slap on the face can help them as much as a college education can.

Letās see, 460-something out of 700 cases so far all in prison save 2, thousands of people storm the capital with one intent, overthrow an election. The only reason being a President, a famous salesman and master manipulator, called a grifter and conman by former associates, spread lies with zero facts saying the election was stolen. Trump then tried to use the national guard to support the insurrection, he was denied, they report to the state governor. Trump then tried to use the US military to keep him in office, and was told they would resign if he proceeded. Thatās the very definition of an insurrection, you expected more dead than 6?

D. Moore ā Tell me please if all sin is equal, and we are all sinners, what makes homosexuality worse that any other? And if all can be forgiven, who are you to say NOT YOU, NOT THAT SIN? And tell me also if we support Buttigieg who is openly gay, how the heck is that worse than supporting Trump whose legal records show 73 affairs, 5 abortions paid for, defrauded over 30,000 people, frequents and is married to a prostitute sorry model-escort, and who lies daily to the tune of over 15,000 lies so far just while in office. So you have abandoned the ten-commandments, you know those silly rules Thou shall not lie, steal, commit adultery, murder, or prostitute yourself. Which by the way those are all things we know Trump has done. And donāt say he is saved and his sins forgiven, a key component of faith is not continuing to sin which he does unrepentantly. You canāt decry someone else for supporting, sorry voting for a candidate while you yourself support the closest thing to hitler or the antichrist we have ever seen. You need to study your Bible by the way, your understanding of scripture is seriously flawed.

I just remember seeing a nutritionist for high cholesterol, and she made one point VERY clearā¦ MAKE A FIST, THAT IS THE SIZE OF YOUR STOMACH. We have consistently trained ourselves to overeat, our stomachs are stretched. She has all these food samples, sheād ask me what I had for breakfast, lunch and dinner, then based on what I said she would pull out these little plastic sample servings. If I said 3 things, the servings looked acceptably small. If I said 5 things, they got really really small. Bottom line, a meal should be no bigger than your fist. Ever. Period. I said no one eats that little, thatās like a small $1 menu hamburger, I just had a hamburger 3 times that size. Fist she would say. Fist.

Ā @indianapublicland7429Ā ā You must be a smart person or an economist. Iām NOT trolling you! It took me several days of reading to understand the fight with China that Trump started, itās long term effects, and how it is affecting USAās economy, leading to a ripple effect from chip shortages, to auto shortages, to computer shortages, to little things like airline reservation system failures because their computers are taxed under the workload as back up systems are cannibalized for parts to keep the primary system up and running. The scary part is that this is just the beginning, the first wave. Itās Trumps work, happening on Bidenās watch, and people WANT to blame the man in charge when itās happening, not the man who caused it.

Yāall are weird. LOL! Corporations do not get the same charitable donation credits (taxes) as people. Thereās a REASON why cars end up in graveyards, supply and demand. Car manufacturers, such as ford, chevy, etc, sell to dealerships. A manufacturer will NEVER EVER undercut their dealer pricing as dealers would drop like flies, not to mention that the market would be flooded with new lower priced automobiles. Why buy a full priced new vehicle if you could buy a cheap new vehicle? Letās look at another example... Need a diamond ring for the new wife or a diamond bauble for the old wife? You go to a jewelry store, and pay dearly for every carat. Would you pay $1,000 for that diamond ring if you knew that diamonds were plentiful and cheap? DeBeer's buys up the ENTIRE WORLDS diamond supply to control the worlds supply and demand pricing. They have huge warehouses as big as airports filled to the roof with diamonds in many parts of the world and closely limit the shipments to drive up the price, as in increase the demand. Flood the market with new cars and the demand plummets. Remember Chrysler in the early 80's? They went bankrupt for doing JUST that. They had a surplus and were selling $20,000 cars at auction for $3,000 each. It bankrupted them.

Ā @GirlCode007Ā ā A polite word of caution. The courts view all speech as a protected right. Not supporting it, the speech, or the bigots, but if they donāt touch you and you attack themā¦ you will be arrested and charged. Do not let their āwordsā agitate or trigger you. You will be playing right into the bigots hands, you will have been played, given them exactly what they wanted, to be heroās, victims in their bigot friends minds, and you will be another example to justify their hatred. My suggestion, be smart, be better than them. Assume there are cameras, do nothing that would appear from a distance or any angle to be an instigator. Visibly deescalate with your hands, stepping back as if to say I donāt want any trouble, leave me alone, and softly call them a š, tell them they are weak, whatever, but say it softly while smiling. Then if they attack you, itās self defense, and PLEASE be armed. If you are a person of color you absolutely NEED to be armed. You have just as much right to carry as anyone, and you will find it calms you. You will walk them into a perfect storm, playing the players. Iām not advocating violence, or the taking of a life, when I say it calms you, it does. Sometimes all it takes is a calm challenge.

darthrib 12 ā People speed, so we have speed limits that save lives and that is O.K. Kids die so we created school zones, thatās O.K. as they also save lives. Motorcycle helmets were the law of the line but the Supreme Court rules we have the right to risk OUR OWN LIVES. Seat belts should have fallen into that same category but havenāt, yet, because the burden of care of idiots who refuse to wear seatbelts is well documented, so you now wear a seatbelt or risk a ticket. You canāt walk into a theater and scream fire, or fire a gun in public without cause, because it risks lives.
Yet wearing a mask, to prevent the spread of the most infectious disease ever in recorded history (note not the most deadly) with a 14 day incubation period where seemingly healthy people are carriers... āWhoa! Thatās TOO DAMN MUCH!ā Even though we know the infection rate means one person can infect over a million resulting in 5,000 dead in 1-2 months... YOU insist on your RIGHT to become a mass murderer. You shout āonly the sick should have to wear masks!ā Even though we know you can be a carrier for 14 days, healthy and spreading the virus. You accept laws for not speeding because it saves a few lives, yet scream bloody murder about wearing masks demanding your rights to kill thousands. Why? We know masks arenāt a cure, an absolute prevention, they are just a preventative measure... like NOT SPEEDING. We are 165,000 dead on our way to the initial projections Trump scoffed at of 300,000. Now the projections are nearing 500,000 expressly due to TRUMPāS LACK OF ACTION.
You have the IQ of a rock. You neither deserve safety or liberty because you deny it of others.

Almost did, Republicans are already talking about the upcoming conflict like itās inevitable. My brothers church in Ridgway, Colorado has drills, recommended vehicles, weapons and ammo suggestions (6,000 rounds per weapon, not joking) and ICE recommendations. Many specifically chose Ridgway because of the location, one highway in/out, easy to close off, defend and isolate from others. To them it isnāt ācan this happen, but WHEN.

Ā @mustang16red87Ā you can go outside at night, or walking during the dayā¦ JUST MAKE NOISE. Talk on the phone, sing softly, drag your feet, whistle, anything that makes noise. Thankfully Bears usually donāt associate humans as food/prey save trash that smells good. Any bear known to or suspected of consuming a human is euthanized, specifically for the reason that bears are smart, those that eat one, eat others as man becomes a food/prey source. Sadly many in the area put out food for bears, which IMHO, is Darwinās Theory at work.

Itās a simple training to stop the dog from walking you. Using a shorter, strong, fixed length leash (not the extendable let the dog run 20ā type) and start the walk normally. When your dog takes their attention off of you, switch directions, go left, right or reverse 180Ā° giving the dog a firm but not cruel tug to tell them to keep up. It should take one or two walks depending on the intelligence of your dog. My golden retriever used to pull me like crazy, she walked me. ONE SINGLE WALK USING THIS METHOD changed her behavior, she watches me, and is much more attentive and doesnāt pull me around. Dogs are much more intelligent than we think, they can learn, albeit by direct action. Thereās a ton of training references on the internet. Search for your dogs issue, and youāll be amazed at the results!

Ā @evelynswinton615Ā ā Clearly you have never ever had a squatter. I bought a house, a fixer upper, went to do some work and the key didnāt work in the lock. As Iām drilling out the lock to enter my house, the police showed up because the squatter inside called them on me breaking into her house. She broke in and her and her druggie friends immediately changed the locks and waited. For the police to get there so quickly she had to have dialed when I drove up. She had obviously done this many, many times before. When the police asked to come inside she said āno! You canāt come in my house without a warrant!ā Then she held up her keys and said āI have a key to MY house, I am a resident!ā She said it like res-i-dent! The police officer raised his hands and took a step back, he told me itās now a civil issue. I had to have her evicted, and I have the right to sue her for any damages sheās done. When I talked to my lawyer he said youāre going to sue a homeless drug addict prostitute thief and youāre gonna spend about 2 to 5000 before we go to court just to do this and you think youāre gonna get anything out of her and he laughed. I explained to the officer it wasnāt livable, my house, etc., no... HERS. I asked the police to allow me in to get my tools some of my furniture personal items and the new appliances before I had finished my sentence, she shouts at the police and me āYour. House? Your tools? Your furniture? Your appliances? Your clothing? Your dishes? NO! My dishes, my appliances, my tools, my furniture, my dishes, my everythingā¦ This is MY Fāing house!ā Thanks to Covid it took me eight months to get her out, when I finally gained access to my house that I had just bought, it was ruined I have over $30,000 worth of interior damage walls ripped paint gone ruined ceilings ruined everything that was takable was taken, my brand new appliances gone, my tools, my clothing, my everything gone. And I had absolutely NO recourse! Once she established residency by changing the locks and holding up the key to the police officer saying you canāt come in my house Iām a resident! She owned my house everything in it was hers to do with as she pleased, my only recourse is to sue her in civil court, if I can ever find her again if she shows up if I win then I have the privilege of waiting indefinitely for her to pay and she has no obligation whatsoever to pay. She was screaming as she was being evicted cuss words at the police and at me she absolutely believed I was a terrible horrible person for throwing her out of her house!

The RĪµal Hal Jordan ā "Violent criminal?" Non-violent, once jailed for mental health concerns. "He should have obeyed the law, his choice." He, like you, was mentally challenged and homeless. Were YOU there to help him cope in America? Dude. You are just like trump, a calloused, haughty, uncaring, self-centered, an absolutely abhorrent reprehensible shit of an excuse of a human being.

Ā @MrStv1163Ā ā Thanks for the info, Iāve watched a few news segments since commenting and one said what you did, the other cited a domino effect of personnel issues, crew snowed in in Denver or ? Canāt catch the flight needed to crew their work flight. Might be the same thing? I was thinking if they had any form of proof they were on that flight, other carriers can/have used paper like old school days. As far as systems failures, I kinda do. I work for AT&T, used to work for Delta for 3 years, and Iāve contracted for AA. Redundancy is key, backup systems, alternative data routes, all critical.

Ahhh, point of fact. Obama did increase the deficit, fact. The ONLY president ever to balance the budget was Clinton. Why? Because President Reagan passed a law restricting things like raises, spending, military budget etc., except during times of war, which we have been at since Bush (war on terrorism). Clinton left office with over a 2 billion surplus. G. W. Bush gave a tax rebate of 2 billion, then gave a tax cut of 2 billion dollars. Bush then realized he had messed up, and for him to recover we had to be at war, and then 911 "happened" and we have been at war ever since. Donāt hate me, these are just facts, Iām not trying to take sides.
Edit war on terror changed to terrorism

69ing chipmunks ā Youāre right about the current political climate. But auto-checkout is here, the systems cost about 1.5 times the annual cost of the annual salary of 2 human checkers. But they do the work of 3, cost nothing to insure, use no benefits, no retirement, take no breaks, lunches or vacations. Auto-driving vehicles are here, and will be completely automated in 5 to 10 years according to projections. Ads for Uber-Transport are playing now, ads for Volvo, peter built and Freightliner atuopiloted trucks are playing now, and are in their initial test phases. There are an estimated 80 million taxi and truck drivers that will be initially impacted, more as they are more accepted. The rate at which technology doubles is shortening, your 100 year projection is off by 80 to 90 years. Doubt me, go shopping.

@Bo BiceĀ ā Not just Democrat businesses were getting burned. And perhaps you fail to understand how this works. Governors ONLY can call in the national guard, not cities, not mayors, and itās not cheap. This is why governors ask that the president declare an emergency as doing so provides funds. And they werenāt on the criminals side, it was a political minefield, but you know that. And no, Trump didnāt ask, he tried, which is why the pentagon officials wrote that letter. And youāre ignorant of the fact that itās unconstitutional to deploy the US military on US soil, against US citizens. Youāre trying to troll too hard, your mixing lies with misinformation to try and defend a presidents actions which were inexcusable.

Ā @lockbert99Ā ā That was not my intent, and you are correct, in the last round of aid only 11 Republican Senators voted against it. I donāt believe that was always correct, I remember hearing something like 157 voted against it, but Iām not sure which round that was and Iāve slept since then. I do know from watching the news that many have spoken out strongly against it as thatās what you hear on morning shows, the news, and on FOX. And frankly you need to reverse your logic, assume Russia invaded the USA. Would you be arguing for surrender to stop the killing? Well you might, but Iām old, I canāt imagine surrendering while we had a chance. Yet youāre suggesting prolonging the war is just leading to more killing and destructionā¦ so just give up? And who said Putin doesnāt want to take on NATO? How do you know this isnāt Russias way of testing our resolve. Russia is a bully, think Ukraine will satisfy their appetite? LOL!

Ā @jerrymarasco8878Ā -- LOL! I am not an essential worker, I moved to my summer mountain home in February when this all started. Voting? I voted for Trump you dolt, but cannot and will not do so again. I will not abandon my faith, principles and values to support a president and party with none. And by fakedemic... you have a point. The 'pandemic' angle could should have been avoided had steps been taken in December/January when it was just getting started. But Trump played down the virus, didn't close boarders until late March, and told the people it was not serious, it was under control, and ignored EVERY initial recommendation to take the virus seriously. Trump allowed the virus to get a foothold which is why we are here today in a hurt locker. And now we have a freak show of Americans who insist that not wearing a mask is their right. Why can't you understand that the virus is indeed real. While just the flu, and the mortality rate is normal for a flu, the INFECTION RATE IS OFF THE CHARTS. So while a normal flu might kill 3,000 COVID19 might kill 300,000 100 times more.
Consider this... Sit down with your family and under the assumption that one of you caught the virus, and infected the rest. Take a few sheets of paper and number from 1 to 100. List the friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, teachers, acquaintances any of you come into contact in a given week. Now randomly cross the names off for 3 of them, one elderly, one child, and one person with a preexisting condition. Then pick 1 of the 3 and declare them dead. Your refusal to wear a mask killed them. Then explain that in the next week those 100 will infect 100 each more, just like one of you did. As there is a 2 week incubation period that means ONE MILLION PEOPLE will be infected because of one of you in 3 to 4 weeks resulting in as many as 5,000 deaths. Fakedemic or not, if that 1 in 100 death were your kid, your friend or your relative... would you care? That is why people are ASKED to wear masks and to try and be safe.

Mass shootings have been happening under BOTH parties presidential terms. Trump or any politician point fingers is just posturing. What I would rather hear is HOW we can tighten up gun control purchase and ownership issues without trampling on the second amendment. Or how we could start school programs on how to recognize depression and anger issues in yourself, and what to responsibly do about your own feelings. Every time I hear the NRA protecting the publicās right to own military hardware, or someone blaming someone or something else for mass shootings like this it just makes me ill. At what point do we say ENOUGH TALK, do something. Prayer vigils, flowers, and people giving speeches are sweet AFTER an event such as this. But where was the SUSTAINED push for change in the weeks before this event? My fear is that as this event fades from our memories, so will itās urgency. And just for the record, I am a gun owner, not an NRA supporter, and I am in favor of stricter gun ownership laws. Everyone, including the NRA should be working together on this issue. Including revisions to the second amendment. In the 1700-1940's there was some truth to the thought that an armed populace could protect America from outside invasion. However, given the current advanced state of military technology, that concept has been rendered not just obsolete, but ludicrous.

We are defined by our actions and the company we keep. Being a member of the Republican Party does NOT make you religious or righteous by default, what you DO, SAY and SUPPORT does. If you support a President who has paid for 5 abortions, defrauded over 30,000 people (theft), had 73 known proven admitted affairs (all in the last decade), makes racist bigoted comments, is married to a former model-escort, and has 22 'unproven' rape accusations, YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN. You absolutely CANNOT support Trump or the Republican Party if you are a person of faith. PERIOD. There is a seemingly forgotten thing called the Ten Commandments that list a few things you should NOT do or endorse. And by supporting trump or the Republican Party you are supporting and endorsing LIES, MURDER, ADULTERY, PROSTITUTION, and THIEVERY to name but a few. You canāt berate Warren and Pelosi and say nothing about the men who made the same comments, to do so just makes you a misogynistic simpleton. Just because the Republican Party has anti-abortion, and anti LGBT rights as stated goals or mission statements, does NOT make them true when they support a president with ZERO of these purported values. You canāt mask an ANTI-LGBT agenda behind religious freedoms verbiage, when "Religious Freedoms" were never threatened. These are basic human rights issues, how we treat the least of us IS A REFLECTION ON or OF US. That is why Black Lives really do matter, LGBT and everyoneās lives matter. If a store can put a "No Shirt ā No Service" or a "No Gays" sign on their door (and they do), any business can select its customer base for ANY reason. When our CONSTITUTION states that no law may be made restricting religion, your religious freedoms ARE NOT THREATENED. Calling people names, personal attacks, that is the new Republican mandate.

Humor me, Santos lies, he is a bad guy. Trump lies, heās a good guy, a businessman. Trumps legal records show he paid for 5 abortions in the decade prior to his presidency, Trump denied it, yet the legal records show āpregnancy termination.ā He has defrauded untold numbers of people from class action lawsuits from failed projects. Trumps defense for each was the same, āIām sorry they believed me, they should have read their contract.ā So Trump is in essence a conman. During Trumpās presidency fact checkers verified over 30,000 separate distinct unique lies during his term. What is it about Santos that Trump is okay, Santos is not? Seriously, not trolling, I just donāt get it.

Don McMannamy 1. Whatās a bergaler? š¤Ŗ 2. Youāre either an idiot or a troll. 3. The father entered to protect his daughters (families) property. 4. He had what the shooter thought was a weapon. Hello? I have worked hard for what I have, I donāt want it stollen. If I confront a burglar, sorry a "bergaler," and he has a weapon and threatens me or my family, I might shoot him too, a few times, until the clip is empty. Go sell crazy somewhere else, youāre sticking up for a CRIMINAL! Where in the hell is your, all of our righteous indignation and anger? Criminals destroy lives, take stuff we have worked years to obtain, previously you actually said he should have waited outside for the police to arrive. So you would have him let the guy go out the back, not to mention the FATHER didnāt know if he had gotten there first... or if his DAUGHTER did and was inside in danger. Every time Iāve needed the police, they have been 20 minutes to two freaking hours away, and once there, like when I was held at gunpoint for over 3 hours, THEY WERNāT EVEN INTERESTED IN TAKING A REPORT. The officer literally said, as he got in his car and drove off, "youāre fine, heās gone, they will never catch him, you can file a report if you want to, but donāt waste my time." And you say he should have waited outside when his daughter could have been inside being raped? DUDE! Grow some balls! You want to wait outside, fine, but you are NOT going to tell me I must do the same.

Evidently you are. All evidence, and I do mean ALL evidence from the airline, FAA, pilot unions, crew unions, and airline staff all point to things out of the airlines ability to control. They have also had similar problems with Southwest Airlines Reservations platform, which is independent of all other airlines. The issue appears partly due to flight staff burning vacation days and personal time off days, as nearing the holidays, they wonāt be able to. Think about that, pilots and crew are mandated by the FAA to have X number of staff to fly X number of passengers. A few vacations, unscheduled days off, and they have cancelled flights. Staff have flight privileges, so many donāt live near a major hub. When flights get cancelled, itās a ripple effect as more STAFF are unable to get to their own flights. Add a weak reservations system and you have chaos when it fails too.
My point? Every Trumpet in the USA, like you, are making ASSUMPTIONS not based on FACTS. So when you say āWeāre not that stupid.ā Are ya sure about that?

Ā @IronChefLif3Ā ā Am I? This is from memory so PLEASE feel free to read your Bible to confirm what I state. In Leviticus where it says for a man to lie with another man is an abomination in gods eyes, god also says at the very beginning in the New Testament that all the rules and laws of the Old Testament are no more. Additionally the word translated in Leviticus as abomination is the exact same word translated as not profitable in 1 Corinthians 16-9ā¦ After Paul says Do you not know that the murderers, adulterers, sinners against mankind (homosexuals), and idol worshipers will not enter the kingdom of God? Weirdly every pastor Iāve known stops reading there, but Paul continues; But such were some of you, but you were saved, sanctified and justified by the lord. I (Paul) can do all of these things, for I am not mastered by any of them. They are lawful for me, but it is not profitable for me. Why was the same Hebrew word used in one verse as abomination, and in another as ānot profitable? The answer lies in Hebrew words for crimes, there were six, often combined to note nuances in the law. The least of which ānot profitableā was used for crimes like stealing bread to feed yourself or family, ranging up to murder. The same word has vast differences in two different scriptures. Again, doubt me? LOOK IT UP. There are also many other scriptures that point to Gods love, and the differences in life on earth as in heaven. For example when Jesus was cornered and asked by a man if he would know his wife in heaven, Jesus responded that in heaven there is no man or woman, no relations or marriage, but if you both chose to know each other, you may. Think about that, if in heaven there are no sexes, no marriage, no men or women, isnāt our faith what matters most? And think too, as there are many rooms in many houses in the house of our lord, based on our faith, where do you think your faith will stand when it was lightly tested, yet LGBT Christians who were told all their lives they are an abomination in gods eyes, god doesnāt know you, the church hates you, and you hated them, yet despite it allā¦ THEIR FAITH IN GOD NEVER WAVERED? The one thing we know about God, about Heaven, is that we donāt know much of anything save hints in the Bible. You choose to hate, I choose to love, support, and let God judge. Yet you tell me I donāt, canāt understand gods words, that none of what I say is godly. Why? Because when god says itās his job to judge, not oursā¦ I believe the Lord. But youā¦ you think you know better than god. Please let me know who wins your argument when we reach heaven, you or God.

How all yāall donāt see Trumps M.O. is beyond me. Letās over simplify this for you... Trump Worked w Russia and Ukraine to manipulate 2 elections, told his people to vote twice, once by mail and in person, told the nation mail in voting wasnāt safe, had lots of fraud which was an absolute lie. Then because āhis supportersā wouldnāt be afraid to vote in person, he put a plan in place, in the midst of a pandemic with a massive increase expected in mail in ballots he put DeJoy a loyal Trumpet to head the post office where he immediately got to work to slow things down, removing sorting machines, removing mailbox drop off boxes, killing overtime during the election, etc. Basically doing any and every thing possible to muck up the USPS. Then Trumps lawyers worked in the states to change the mail in voting laws so that instead of ballots being postmarked by Election Day, they must be received by Election Day, succeeding in multiple states. Wonder why Trump rushed to appoint his pick for a SCOTUS judge opening? Because if he loses he plans to appeal all the way to the Supreme Court OD the United States, where he will have a Republican majority, 2 of which owe their positions to him.
In summary... THIS WAS ALL PLANNED. You can fault Trump for many things, but being dumb, an excellent liar, and conman, and a master manipulator isnāt one of them. We have been played like a fiddle.

As the former owner of a Range Rover, I regret to inform you that you have passed crazy, passed insanity and entered the Full-Tilt Bozo zone. In less than 2 years I enjoyed 3 toes tows, 3 major transmission issues (2 replacements), and 21 other little minor things like alternators, window motors, shock breaking free from its mounts, water pumps, and a starter, along with dozens of little electronics problems. Land Rovers are not meant to be used, just looked at. Donāt trust it to go to the store.

Ā @aloddakrappenshitz2890Ā ā Your friend and I are on the same page. However as the Republican Party has NEVER distanced themselves from, disavowed, or asked a KKK, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, or any other white nationalist/power group to put down their confederate flag, leave the rally, telling them they are not welcomed there, EVERā¦ Iām sticking with the Republican Party is a racist group. Until this changes, until the Republican Party stops championing lies, Iām out. This new āTrumpā Republican Party is pure evil and wrong as hell.

DanielHBuchmann ā We knew it was an exercise in futility from the beginning, it was a done deal before it began, just like Kavenaugh's SCOTUS appointment. The republicans had a chance to do the right thing, but they chose to support their lying, cheating, manipulative, thieving adulterous faithless president by holding a farce of a trial where the documentation, transcripts and witness testimony was blocked, literally prevented from being heard. This was a chance for them to reclaim their integrity, honor and character of the Republican Party, and they are clueless as to the long term effects. This was so blatant, it will cost Trump his re-election. Yes, I know, Republican's are going to laugh and scoff at my statement. Doubt me? Get out your calendar and write down "YouTube dolt predicted Trump Loss" then come back and tell me after November 2, 2020.

Edgar Campos ā People die every day? How do you not know the difference between an accident and knowingly infecting someone? Everyone wants a return to normal, the sooner the better. The only difference is Republicans want an immediate return to normal, Demās want to do so with caution and intelligence. Getting people back to work is critical to the countryās well being, but doing it smart is critical. Gloves, masks, social distancing where possible. Letting people who can work from home is CRITICAL! Business needs to continue, Trump is right about that. But an immediate return to normal is insanity.
The CDCās statement says if we ease quarantine before a time period equal to the incubation period (two weeks) with zero new infections, we run the risk of starting this all over again. Read that twice and let that sink in.
Let me rephrase... as you say people die every day in accidents. Make a list of people you care about, keep going until that list holds the 100 people that come to mind first. Now pick three people, one old, one kid, and one with a pre-existing condition like obesity, heart condition, diabetes, aids, etc. Now cross those three names off the list as you just killed them because you felt wearing a mask was not necessary.
Now do you care?

Ā @opctpos.Ā ā In your opinion. Unless you are directly involved that is. How about if they passed laws that would affect your private life? Less government is more, do you want the government involved in your life, with your kids? Seriously, were your children all conceived in the approved missionary position? If not, would you suggest a fine or imprisonment? Have you or your wife ever had an extramarital affair? Uhh Ohā¦ when would you like to schedule your execution and would you prefer to be beheaded, stoned or thrown from a rooftop? Where are the lines between freedom and complete authoritarian fascist control? Would you submit to the government spaying you if your genes were defective and might produce children prone to cancer or heart disease? How much government control of your lifeās choices are you comfortable with? Wait, did you vote for Biden, because that should be a crime too, have any of your neighbors? Is there a government number that I can call to get you investigated and prosecuted? What are your thoughts on LGBT people? If youāre open minded and believe they have human rights, we need to get you into a re-education center immediately to correct these aberrant beliefs. My point isnāt to attack you, itās to make you think. You are clearly Republican, and believe you have the right to control other people, end personal freedoms, and take away human rights. Before you say ānoā¦ā think pleaseā¦ you āsayā youāre for personal freedom, anti-abortion, pro-religion, personal responsibility but your deeds and ACTIONS say otherwise. If this is passed, whatās next? Did you buy your child a condom therefore condoning pre-marital sex? You are under arrest for violating the Family Protection Act. Seriously, where does it stop? I know where it startsā¦ right here right now with YOUR trying to force parents to raise their kids YOUR way, because even though you donāt know them or understand their specific situation, you feel it necessary to legally mandate how you think they should raise their kids.

nigelft ā If only what you said had any basis in fact. First, Spacey is not a pedophile, he NEVER had sex with anyone underage, even the "victim" Rabb Denys any sex occurred. Rabb simply asserts Spacey made a pass, Rabb declined, and Spacey was cool with that. Second, 85% of all child molestations are a heterosexual male molesting young girls. Not joking, look it up. You might find phycologists reason why amusing, gay men are more able to find sexual partners than heterosexual men, in other words gay men are more easily able to satisfy their sexual needs. Iām sorry that you were molested, that is horrible and I hope you got justice and have recovered. But for you to transpose your feeling onto Spacey who has never molested anyone underage... is wrong. Sorry, but it is.

Ā @jasonfuchs4304Ā ā Ahh, the evil Demsā¦ got it. They were your friends, neighbors, coworkers and family before Trump, but now they are all evil. Hilarious bud! So letās talk about evil and cults. Cults have a charismatic leader who they follow despite logic and facts. Trump started prepping people almost a year before immediately after he was told that because 6 states had changed their āfaithless electoral voter laws, he would lose as their same tactics that worked in 2016 were not possible in 2020.ā Trump started saying that āthe only way I can lose is if the Dems cheat,ā which he repeated at every possible opportunity before the first vote was cast. Hmmmm how did he know? He tried every dirty trick in the book, stacking the Supreme Court (failed), attempted coercing Ukraine to announce an investigation (not doā¦ 3 prior investigations found nothing prosecutable) into Hunter Biden. He had already replaced the 20-some-odd pentagon officers who had signed the āNot on their watchā letter declining using military troops against BLM rioters with Trump loyalists. Trump then put out a laptop with incriminating emails which was mysteriously ālost by FOX when they mailed their only copy via USPS.ā š¤£ Trump installed DeJoy to slow down the USPS. Trump told his followers to vote twice and some did, the Arizona audit found 14k Republicans voted twice in just one precinct. Then on January 6 Trump had set up a āWar roomā at a nearby hotel to monitor the riots progress, before the riot had even started after his speech. Trump on January 6 also tried do use the national guard to support āhis people,ā Then he tried to use the US military to support his people and overthrow the election, But was denied. People had to threaten to resign one by one if he gave that order. He had to be literally talked out of a coup. And Iām sure thereās a dozen other things that I canāt think of off the top of my headā¦ That is what you support. Fraud, lies, coercion, corruption at the highest level. So donāt try and sell yourself as summer high and mighty better than Dems individual as you arenāt. You literally supported an insurrection, when there was absolutely zero proof that any voter fraud had occurred that could possibly change the outcome of the election. But yāall donāt care, itās just all part of the lies and deception and misinformation.

We ALL seem to be ignoring the fact that more guns arenāt the answer just as less guns arenāt the answer. We are all ignoring the fact that guns DO enable mentally off-balanced people to do more harm than they might do with a tool. It irks me to no end that we arenāt teaching mental health every year in our educational system, how to keep it, how to find purpose, how to be happy, how to handle depression, the effects of bullying and how to stop it or handle it, how to spot mental issues in yourself and others AND how to effectively deal with these issues when you become aware. Our LEOās have two options (think green light/red light), allow weapons or not allow weapons to individuals who have a history of violence or mental issues. We need to change this so for example we add a yellow and Orange status to say prevent certain people from owning multiple high magazine capacity magazines, or in some cases being allowed to only have a weapon at home but NOT on you outside of your home (carry).
My logic is simple, look back to the 1960ās, presidential debates where a question about gun control were not just laughed at, they were mocked. With every passing presidential term the gun control question meets less and less resistance as more and more mass shootings occur. This shift in public opinion is noticeable as in the last several elections EVERY Democrat candidate supported gun control of some kind. The WHY is simple, peopleās attitudes are changing as they grow more concerned about their and their familyās safety, they voice these concerns to politicians who must adopt these concerns in order to get elected. If you follow this trend, we will begin to see Republicans change their opinions too, and as gun lobbyistās fight EVERY change, what I fear is reaching a point when āthe rubber band snapsā resulting to a modification or deletion of our Second Amendment rights, then only the criminals will have guns. Before you say this will never happen, remember that the U.S. Constitution is written in pencil, it can and has been changed. If we, ALL OF US, both parties donāt take steps to reduce gun violence, we will lose the second amendment, and it will be ALL OF OUR FAULTS. š

Walter S. ā Buttigieg's book didnāt sell well because his advance was small? Think about that please. Do you even know what an advance is and why they call it an "advance?" A publisher hears someone is writing a book, and because the writer is good or marketable, a publisher will offer the writer an advance so THEY have the right to publish the book, kind of like an option. i.e., the book hasnāt been written yet. Most writers donāt get advances because theyāre not as marketable, they write the book, then shop for publishers. For a ludicrous example; Steven King once mentioned to a friend that he had just wrapped up a book and had an idea about what his next book would be about. His friend told someone he was working on a new book, who told two people... and they told two people etc., and by early afternoon his publisher heard about it. Wanting to be sure to get in on Kings new book, they sent a courier over with a contract and an advance if he accepted. The check was for 7,000,000.

The SCOTUS just agreed with you. Bottom line of their decision, 22 agencies available, 1 does not offer adoptions to LGBT people. That is a Religion based organization, and the court affirmed their right to be selective. This is good. However your comment That you are āSick of this being shoved down our throats,ā speaks of your personal bias. Letās be clear, the bias you have just voiced is WHY itās not going to stop. LGBT people are NOT less āanythingā than you, not less deserving, not less human, not deserving of less rights, and NOT less of an American citizen than you. Ask yourself why people keep making this point, keep marching, protesting, and keep standing up for their rights? Think if it were blacks being denied adoption by the church would YOU also feel that they were āshoving it down your throat?ā I think not, as blacks have fought, petitioned, marched and rioted to affirm their right to stand as equals. But you canāt stand LGBT people to do the same. Why is that? Why are you triggered by it?

Shadow ā You canāt reason with them, I was trolling. Since the Republican Party aligned with the religious right, and wrongly decided that Democrats are NOT Christians, itās no longer politics ā It is a faith based issue. In the name of God, they elected Trump... THE most ungodly, unchristian President ever. Because Trump switched to the Republican Party, he is deemed Christian. His model/escort wife, his 10 bankruptcies, his 73 known affairs (based on his own legal teams filings), nothing, absolutely nothing matters. Trump is deemed saved, forgiven and justified in everything, anything he has ever done or will do. Same with the Kavenaugh SCOTUS appointment, it was a done deal before it started because Kavenaugh answered two questions in his interview as Yes, would you support overturning Roe vs Wade, and marriage equality. His resume or crimes was irrelevant, he was in.

Ā @johnnypicĀ ā I am aware that NYC did all that, but I thought they had adapted their rules. One of the ladies from my church went there and had checked a weapon as baggage, when she picked up her luggage she was arrested. It was a long drawn out deal, she was a widow, a person of means, and we all heard about how her lawyers had had her case dismissed, and how she had won a false arrest settlement from NYC. I thought shortly after that NYC had relaxed their rules... clearly I was wrong. Statistically CHL holders commit a fraction of a percent of the crime, literally something like .0005% or some absurdly low number. Here in Texas you have to have ZERO criminal record, pass a class and pass a range proficiency test to get a license, itās a multi-day ordeal, and surprisingly, the test wasnāt as easy as you might think. All I know is that after I was robbed and beaten, the cops were in no rush to help. We arenāt talking even simple human caring, absolute detachment and boredom. I know people hate guns, I was one of those, but holy hell... there are some seriously bad people in this world, and Iād like to at least have a chance at defending myself. And please donāt misunderstand me, if I ever get robbed again, I am throwing my wallet at them and trying to run away... but Iād like the choice. A few years ago in was called into HR because someone saw me get out of my car and put my gun in the car. Oddly, their reaction was to send a memo out that explained it was O.K., not a company issue, if you know someone or see someone, know that CHL holders present the lowest risk of any group. Etc., it was a long memo and I found slightly amusing.

Jason Brotherton ā How so? Exactly how do republicans "support the people?" The Republicanās have abandoned every positive Christian and human trait they once held. You are literally supporters of lies, false information, open relationships, adultery, discrimination, and hate. They wholeheartedly support people of zero integrity, honor, honesty, and character. You believe you are people of faith, yet abandoned your faith by incorporating every vice and dirty trick known. You point fingers at Clinton for having an affair, yet self righteously support a president who has settled 73 sexual harassment lawsuits in the last decade PLUS 22 rape accusations. You scream baby killers at democrats yet fail to support any pro-life stance the democrats attempt showing with 100% clarity you donāt give a shit about childrenās lives, but only care about forcing your āvaluesā on others. You purport to love your brother yet you want the right to fire them, kick them from their homes or treat them fairly like you want to be treated. So seriously, ow do you support the people when you want to elevate yourselves and subjugate everyone else?

TYT, yāall need to get your head on straight. You have a new mayor, his police department management were indeed bigots, but theyāre is ZERO proof that Buttigieg knew the motivations were racial, that he knew they were working with hid donors, etc. EVERYTHING on the record says the police management were racially motivated, and there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that says Pete was or knew anything about it. Iām sorry, Iāve taken over groups and divisions before, when 5 people tell you at different times and in unrelated conversations that any given manager is bad, worthless, hindering performance, whatever, as a manager, you begin to question the manager they are bad-mouthing. You, I or anyone could have made the same decision given the same information.
TYT ā DO SOME HOMEWORK, STATE SOME FACTS BEHIND YOUR REPORTING,MINSTEAD OF JUST MAKING ASSUMPTIONS AND INNUENDOS! You are slamming Buttigieg as a racist, when zero facts, zero evidence, zero truth. YOU, all of you need to listen to your own newscast here, Boykinās, the chiefs subordinates, perhaps Buttigiegās donors were racists or racially motivated. NOTHING you say in this report says a damn thing about Buttigieg, all of it is guesswork and supposition.
EVERYONE, if you agree, click the upright ellipsis "ā¦" select report, look to the bottom and chose "Misleading" and report. IMHO, I get the anger at what happened in South Bend, it was wrong as hell. But this, slamming a candidate because of a situation not of any one persons control. This is everything wrong with journalism, TYt, again, IMO, deserves a major black eye because of this. And for clarity, Iām not sure I like Mayor Pete, not sure he is ready for the presidency, not sure of a lot of things. If there was a shred of EVIDENCE that he knew, that he was indeed racist, Iād just give a like and move on. But this, this is the definition of false news.

Back to the Basics 101 ā The Officer did explain the reckless driving report at the beginning, and like 30 times afterwards. Yes, the police "may" have used the smell of alcohol and marijuana as an excuse to continue the search. But holy hell, you never argue with someone with a gun, ESPECIALLY one wearing a badge. Leave the "was he drinking or smoking" questions for court and the tox-screen. Yes, police need probable cause, reckless driving. Yes, they need suspicion of a crime to remove you from or search a vehicle, smelled marijuana. Did the police get creative, and were the other two arrested unfairly/falsely, maybe. Life isnāt fair. Iām not saying this was right, I view this tape as one more reason police are getting their reputation ruined. But the cop was patient, he did answer the questions the young man kept asking, the kid just wasnāt listening. If you are a legislator, please, PLEASE work to hold police more accountable, their integrity means EVERYTHING. When that one officer stated that he also smelled alcohol and marijuana who was standing 7' behind the drivers window the entire time at the rear of the vehicle to support his fellow officer and Help justify the stop or arrest, if I was a lawyer I would rejoice on that fact alone. One officer lying taints the entire case against the three, not to mention the entire police force.

Aaron Yarb ā You remind me of many years ago in Dallas after the cowboys won a Super Bowl and there was a parade in Dallas. I watched a young man beat the ever loving crap out of a girl screaming āThis is payback for 400 years of black slaveryā as he held her by the hair with one hand and beat her with another for several minutes. It was captured by a news camera. Letās be clear on this... yes, whites brought slaves over, and SO DID BLACKS. It was a bad thing everywhere. If I remember my history correctly (?) 30,000 blacks owned almost a million slaves according to the census bureau. It was a different time. But NO ONE ALIVE HAS OWNED SLAVES OR BEEN A SLAVE. All of your anger... justified at history but not at anyone alive today. Your anger serves no one, least of all you or your race. The issues today, if you ask people WHY they are wary, why are they nervous, why would they hesitate to walk in a black neighborhood, would they hesitate to hire a black persons, name the poll... the answer is the same for all races and all situations. Fear. Fear of safety, crime, ability/education (if I hire them and they donāt work out, we wonāt be able to let them go because of their race), etc. FEW EVER SAY BECAUSE THEY ARE BLACK. At what point do you realize that the situation today has very little to do with 200 plus years ago? We ALL know there are inequalities in this world, how blacks are treated is one of them. Police kill blacks with alarming frequency, but in many cases (not all, not even saying many are not gross injustices) when you watch the video itās scary to think you might have done the same. So you march, and every sane person of every race was behind you, supporting you. And... what happens? Every March turns violent, riots, fires, looting, property damage and loss of life at the hands at the looters. You have just reaffirmed or reinforced every stereotype and racial stigma you were marching to overcome. Seriously, take a look at how YOU are hurting yourselves before ragging on a narrator for not saying something you wanted him to say.

Yes, you are right.Ā America, North America or you could even say the Western world views 911 as a tragedy.Ā When it happened, I remember the chills that went up my spine when they showed the reaction in Pakistan, people were dancing, cheering, giving thanks to Allah, hundreds and hundreds of women all doing that shrill warbling type of scream that they do in celebrations.Ā Afghanistan, the same, dancing and cheering in the streets.Ā Iran, ditto.Ā And it was a shock to even see the people of Saudi Arabia cheering and dancing in the streets.Ā We may be on good terms with a few of these countries politically, but we need to REMEMBER that the people there HATE us viscerally.Ā

That the likes of Abbott, Cruz, Lake, DeSantis, Boebert, MT Greene, or Walker either won, or came close to winning just blows my mind. Honor, integrity, character, honesty used to be traits we looked for in our candidates.

Iāve known people who went through drug trials. They tell you up front, very clearly, so you know with absolute certainty, that you will randomly receive either the placebo, or the real drug. You hope you get the real drug, but you know by your participation that you could get either one. Thatās the simple truth. Sad that those I died, but that is how ALL drug trials are done. There is no other known way to accurately track and test the effectiveness of a drug. And yes, several people Iāve known passed away, unfortunately getting the placebo. I can remember the final conversation I had with one friend, I said is it too late to switch to the real drug (at that point he knew he wasnāt getting the real drug), and he just smiled, āNo, thatās a risk, a gamble, we all took. Donāt worry, I knew the chances were 50/50, I accepted the results a long time ago.ā

Ā @krislarsen6546Ā ā I have no clue, sorry. I have a thing about recurring monthly payments or expenses of any kind, well other than say a house note. To finance a vehicle costs you so much more. When if you plan ahead, invest and think about your next car as you invest, you can pay cash for whatever you want, let someone else take the depreciation, by used, keep it for a few years and repeat. If you have income you want to hide, to avoid taxes, you donāt deposit it in banks, which makes me assume what your talking about is money they donāt want to declare. That would make senseā¦ but I think now even large purchases like cash for a car are reported to the feds. Iām no expert in hiding money, but I do hate taxes. LOL!

SkiingIsMyHappyPlace Bliss ā Iāve been going to Church with my relatives there for 30+ years. Itās only gotten freaky weird and become satanic Trump worship since he ran and took office. I travel, or used to, frequently... every bible or fundamental church Iāve been to is petty much identical. Trump was appointed by God, if youāre a Christian, you WILL vote Republican or you are no Christian. The evangelical + Republican bond started when Reagan personally met with and courted the nations top 1000 evangelical leaders, then they added anti-abortion to their mission/position list, anti-gay, then anti marriage equality, then Bush signed DOMA into law. When Clinton tried to let LGBT Americans serve under DADT, and then Obama ended DADT allowing their full service, and then Obama spoke in favor of Marriage Equality and it became law (SCOTUS) on his watch... that was war. Thatās why the Republican Party has become rabid on this fight. Not because they care but because the fight itself brings voters to their side.

kirk mitchell ā Thereās a lot of info and facts to support allegations against the Clintons. But the only bad thing provable on Hunter Biden is he once went into a drug rehab center for cocaine use. Yes, the Hunter Biden Ukraine board position looks bad, but the timeline the trumpets are pushing is backwards and pure BS. Yes, I know, looks bad, smells bad, might be bad... but looking bad isnāt a crime, you kinda need facts. Did the Ukraine oil company offer a sweet job to Hunter Biden because of his father being VP? Maybe, probably, looks bad, but zero proof to say it was or wasnāt a back door deal.
So the questions here is are you an Independant thinking person or a trumpet? šØš» or šŗ? Pick one please.

Everyone wants to protect children. The issue is being held liable if a young user circumvents the age verification process. There is also the point of government control, Republicans wish to force others to adhere to their personal values. They fight against mask laws that help reduce infections and save lives, but pass laws like this NOT TO PROTECT CHILDREN, but to punish businesses who sell porn services. The irony is Utah is a porn consuming state.
Flip their logic, hamburgers are bad for you, so what if Republicans passed laws making businesses that sell burgers responsible for all medical care for life for all people who eat burgers, liable for all heart attacks, heart bypass operations, etc., and named the bill āInnocent Child Protection?ā What fast food place would serve burgers where that law was enacted? Anyone against the bill would be against innocent child protection. Not to mention what right does the government have to require by laws that free citizens eat the way Republicans think they should.
One by one, a little here, a little there Republicans are exerting their Authoritarian fascist will over others. What they say is the exact opposite of what they mean. They scream and point fingers about Democrats committing election fraud while actually committing election fraud on a massive scale. They get banned for lies on social platforms, so they founded āTruth Socialā which allows the lies. When they want to increase bullying against a subgroup of the population, they pass laws to increase the hatred and bullying, and when anyone, say an executive with a large company speaks out, they work to punish the company for daring to disagree against the state.

Ā @noneyabizz8337Ā -- Let's see, Walz did serve, retired a MASTER SARGENT, served multiple overseas deployments (non-combat), and you are saying that because he was told later that even though he was the "acting" Command Master Sargent, some paperwork was left incomplete and he will simply remain a Master Sargent (sans command). Walz joined at age 17 and served in the reserves for 24 years, retiring E-9. Vance retired an E-4, serving 4 years as a Public Affairs employee. You call that lying. Yet you endorse Trump who lies constantly, the count is over 30,500 separate distinct lies in his 4 years in office. Note that "The election was stolen" counts as 1 single lie in that total. Trump slammed Obama for golfing 105 times in his tenure over 8 years, yet Trump golfed 285 days in 4 years at an estimated cost to you and I of $142 million. Do you see the irony here? Bone Spurs vs. 24 years of service.

Iām on the fence hereā¦ I was raised with guns, and before we could read we understood they were not toys, my parents never ever bought us toy weapons of any kind, not even GI Joeās. When we were old enough to be left alone, my parents set us down and layer some guns down on the table and educated us, how to check if they are loaded, to always assume they are loaded, even after we just checked, never point it at anyone PERIOD unless our life or someone elseās life depended on it AND to NEVER point it without intent to shoot. No threats, no words, no warnings, just shoot. And all kind of reminders like once a bullet is fired, it can never ever be stopped, forgiven, or taken back. So this bruh ha ha over arming teachers, gun control, etc. is a bit weird to me, as a gun is like a hammer, it is a tool, period. I think itās bonkers to allow teachers to be armed in school, unless they have a want, interest, training and a mental aptitude and of sound mind to both keep it on their person, not ever stored at school. And yes, I am talking regular police type range and safety training. Guns are a serious issue, they are taken way to casually and the gun itself is not entirely to blame, the mental state of our nation, bullying, lack of mental health training in schools, etc. deserves much more of the share of the blame. And that is my .02Ā¢ worth. š

Escape for Mankind is Keith Johnson ā Actually... I do. I lived it. Iām the person who had to waste 1-3 days, EVERY damn month, month after month, in rental cars. And no... it wasnāt just me, the two dealerships were hopping, busy as hell! And YOU sound one of the guys that I ran into repeatedly at the dealership, he had a Mustang and LOVED it! Best car EVER he said. Any problems I asked, None he replied, itās been a great car! But Iāve run into you here four times in five months I asked... why are you always here? Oh just little things he said... minor problems, alternator, motor mounts, had some power window issues, busted a shock, nothing major. Itās a pretty car I said... he just beamed! His car was six months old. SMH

Humor me, youāre out of town, a neighbor sees a strange man at your house and calls 911. When the police show up the man immediately says I donāt live here, I live across the street. [Waitā¦] You return and find out youāve been robbed, that the police showed up, caught the guy, but have no clue who he was. They asked for his ID and he refused, and they let him go. How would you feel then? If the police have a reasonable suspicion of a crime (911 call), they have the right to ask for ID, or detain the man to determine if his story is correct, determine if a crime is being committed. ALL THEY DID WAS VERIFY WHO HE WAS.

OwlsEyelash ā I do live in the USA and I am familiar with our press. And yes, I do see your point, sort of. Whenever the press or news mentions a criminal issue involving a Caucasian they rarely reference the persons race or say "white," but when referencing a person of color they do frequently say "Black," "Hispanic" or whatever. I and a lot of people notice that fact. What I donāt understand is your anger or assumption that they didnāt initially call him a terrorist because he was white. He may have been, and if the police's research shows him to be racially, politically or religiously motivated I will be right beside you denouncing him as a terrorist. My point was that to refer to him as a terrorist before the facts are known is wrong. Now that more information has become available, he did seem motivated by hate. Republican family, online rants about God, against gay marriage, and many other issues. The news has also brought up the point that perhaps Austin was targeted because it voted majority democratic while the rest of Texas mostly voted republican. But thatās all supposition until all the facts are in.

Ā @duesen00Ā ā š³ Thatās way different than I learned in school. I am far from expert, but from what I remember he spent heavily, dipped into the countryās coffers to finance his castle building. Not all of the laborers were volunteers, some were craftsman pulled from their homes and families and essentially forced to work, perhaps not on the castles, but on the supporting logistics. Their rulers attention on the castles caused problems, food shortages, etc., in his country. The people were not happy, and much of the government was left wondering if their king was sane. Lacking the means to remove what was essentially a king, they improvised. Thatās what I remember, but Iām in the USA and those classes were 40 years ago, LOL! Iām not arguing whoās right or wrong, just saying thatās what I remember. Clearly I need to do some homework.

I'd like to hear fellow Republicans justify how they can vote for someone who is a liar. Repeatedly Abbott has lied, over and over. People here say that they support Abbott's stance on economy, crime, border, taxes, 2nd amendment rights, schools, protections for the unborn. Yet how do they know when Abbott's first impulse about Uvalde was to lie, then when caught lying, deny it until it was proven by video... So schools and crime are unknowns. Abbott's proven track record for big business when it screws the citizens is also known... So economy, taxes, who knows what else is also a big unknown. Border? Abbott views brown people, Hispanics, like Trump does, considers them all thieves, rapists and murderers, and his border policy is pure theatrics and again, lies. 2nd amendment rights... Yes, he supports them unconditionally. However that also puts kids and people at risk because of zero changes made to protect schools and public areas.

Ā @Greg-yu4ijĀ ā Actually, no. He is not wrong. The 2a is clear, the right to a free and well armed militia shall not be infringed. He has a point. States have made their own laws, which someā¦ are not 2a compliant. I too am on the fence about this because the law must be fair to all, and unless the constitution is changed, 2a is a right. That said with every mass life ending event, public opinion shifts, and politicians are elected by the public. My point, we shouldnāt resist all gun law changes, because if we donāt try to curb these events we will lose our 2a rights we now enjoy. Personally I do NOT see tracking all weapons sales as an issue, a simple website and/or phone app could be used. Background checks, etc, ditto. We are our own worst enemy, If we donāt take steps toward gun safety, we will have only ourselves to blame. Oh, and a pencil worked just fine for John Wick too. š¤£

My relatives are rabid Trump supporters, Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners were full of prayers for him at the dinner table, prayers to protect him from the evil DemoncRats, etc. If my relatives and church are an indicator, we should NOT underestimate Trump. I know many channels like this are putting out videos that Trumps support is lagging, Republicans are fleeing, etc., but are they? They REALLY believe Trump was appointed by God, anointed to save our nation, these are scary times. Before all yāall argue how wrong I am, I do hope I am very wrong. But when I see my wealthier relatives talking about how to funnel more money to candidates than allowed, discussing PACās they can donate to that will donate their money to Trump, itās clear he is building a war chest. And his not being convicted of any crime just energizes them. They see Godās hand at work and proclaim him vindicated, completely innocent.

I think youāre missing the point. History cannot be forgotten, or it repeats. While blacks are not "Slaves" today, and no one alive today were, and no one has owned slaves in many, many generations, blacks as a whole are not considered full citizens, they are still subjugated and marginalized as a whole. We as a nation still point at the crime statistics that show blacks are arrested and convicted more per capita than any other race, to indicate that they are criminal by nature. THAT is discrimination at its worst! Instead of understanding that less educated, marginalized groups who earn less, LEARN that crime can put food on the table. Think of it this way, children with part\ents who (by todayās standards) abused them, and I mean beat them, hit them, slapped them, beyond the occasional spanking, are way more like;y to beat their children or spouses as adults. By cultivating a society where blacks are subjugated, earn less, must work harder to survive, when these kids see their parents steal, rob, sell drugs to feed them, THEY repeat the process, they learn that crime is acceptable and normal. My point is itās not a racial issue, itās an economic one. Raise everyone up to equality and we can see change. Saying I didnāt own slaves, Iām innocent... not the point. No one today owns slaves, no one today was a slave. Ditto for their parents, their parents or their parents, we are over 5 to 10 generations separated.

Ā @randalramsook5445Ā ā Because there has been no proven link in autopsies between either MRNA vaccine and blood clots or strokes, ALL had preexisting conditions. I assume you meant Johnson and Johnsonā¦ and J&J doesnāt have a 3% efficiency rate, it has a 74% reduction in Covid-Delta variant infections requiring hospitalizations. The two MRNA vaccines Moderna and Pfizer have a 86% and 93% effective rate in reducing hospitalizations respectively on Delta variant infections. I get what youāre doing, using hearsay and irrelevant reports to try and steer people away from getting vaccinated. Iām curious why you would do this? You canāt want people to die or get sick, you canāt want the economic and other costs of this health crisis to continueā¦ or do you? I get it, this video is about Gay Marriage, equality, and as a so called Christian you were triggered by the video and now have been reduced to just trolling. You may be wondering why I said āso-called Christian,ā because God said love thy neighbor and love thy brother. The Bible doesnāt specify any exceptions, does not exclude eunuchs (gays in biblical times), women, people of color, etc., you are. LGBT people are not less deserving than you, are not less human, and are as American as you ā No matter how much you dislike them they are not less than you. When God said whosoever believes in me shall be saved, he did not list other qualifications. And I know you think you are smarter than God, but if God says we are ALL sinners, that ALL sin is equal, and that ALL sin can be forgivenā¦ I for one am not arguing with God as you are. Please when you meet him, remember that conversation, as I would like to know. By the way, please remember too that we will be judged by our actions and words, and the effects of our words and actions. So as you are discouraging masks, vaccines and spreading other lies, that are COSTING LIVES, please know that you will be held accountable and judged by the almighty. Oh, I almost forgotā¦ Republicans āthinkā they are on the right side because the Republican Party has adopted some of the key values of mainstream religion, cultivating hate as a political weapon. You should do some homework into why, the marriage between Republicans and religion took on a life of its own under Reagan when he personally met with each of the nations top 1000 evangelical leaders. Seeing this gain in voter turnout, the Republican Party began incorporating the Religious Rightās talking points and beliefs into their position list. This is why anti-abortion, anti-human rights positions like anti-LGBT everything, etc., were added. If you read the GOP meeting minutes, they clearly state the motivation, āTo increase party loyalty and further polarize the voters,ā each and every time. Their positions donāt have anything to do with Christian values, they have everything to do with the money those bullet items bring in when they are on their position list. You support Trump, not because of any other reason than he tells you what you want to hear. You believe a conman, an unrepentant liar, a master manipulator, a life long democrat who had adulterated the Republican Party in its entirety. And yet, here you are, oblivious to the facts that you have been manipulated and conned into abandoning the very faith based values you purport to have. Republicans have literally become the party if lies, and please refresh my memory how God feels about liars? Who was the father of all lies? So here you are trying to troll an equal rights issue video, admitting to your hatred of your brothers, admitting to lies, and admitting to murder (indirect)ā¦ knowing you will be judgedā¦ yet think you are worship God and not Satan, even though the party you support has become a Cult of Satan worshipers.
Oh, and by the wayā¦ want to know another amusing fact, the GOP director who suggested adding the bullet point āAnti-Gay Rightsā to the Republican position list was gay himself. The Republican Party has no problem with them, just used the position to attract voters, to āfurther polarize voters and increase party loyalty.ā That and the money they bring in. Did you know that the GOP/Republican party fights every possible effort to save babies lives, because it would serve to weaken their support base? (That means money) they have fought the Dems efforts to give mothers in that awful position, to add medical, job, school, housing, and adoption services, rights, and protections. Why? It would āWeaken their [our] anti-abortion stance.ā Itās all stated in the GOP meeting minutes which are available for you to peruse online. Havenāt you ever wondered why their abortion fight is an all or nothing stance? No compromises whatsoever? Itās not about abortion, not about saving children, not about anything other than pointing fingers at others and saying āLOOK AT WHAT THEY ARE DOING!ā That is a lie, it is manipulation, and you are culpable.

Ā SFPĀ I go to a bible church, very, very Republican. But what I found interesting was the people giving peace āš¼ signs before and after the election. I was encouraged to vote twice, TRUMP TOLD US TO! Iād pause and say Itās a felony. They would essentially follow by saying some version of āTrump was appointed by God, he is being guided by God, those were instructions from God. Besides trump will issue a blanket pardon for those caught.ā The peace āš¼ sign before was an encouragement. Afterwards it was a confirmation that they voted twice, once by mail, then in person.
WHY is it O.K. for US Republicans to vote twice but you donāt want Democrats votes to be counted that were dropped off the previous day? Seriously, I would LOVE to hear how you justify our total lack of honor, accountability and character. What have we become under trump? Lies, adultery, deception, crimes, are now acceptable and normal. As a person of faith I will not stand with you in this.

No matter what you think of Trump and Biden, DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THEIR SUPPORT OF TRUMP! I attend a Bible Church (Fundamental) and TRUST ME, they LOVE trump unquestionably, absolutely, and firmly believe āTrump was appointed by God to save the country from the evil baby killing sexually perverted democrats intent on destroying America.ā Over Thanksgiving and Christmas I had to bow my head in prayer and listen to them Pray for Trumps deliverance from the... (see above) democrats. To them, this is a holy war, all other priorities are rescinded, anything goes. Thatās why trumps words, lies, and actions mean nothing, they BELIEVE in him!

How naive. There are SERIOUSLY bad people who are not salvageable in any way shape or form. When someone places bombs and kills and injure many dozens of people. Whatās the point of giving them a cell for life with repeated efforts to parole or rehabilitate them? Want to know the number of felons who have been released only to commit crimes, murders, rapes, armed robbery again and again? Itās high as hell! At what point do you say ENOUGH, and just end the threat? Iāve met some bad people, and TRUST ME, they laugh and mock us, call us civilized sheep, they are the predators and you are nothing but prey in the way of getting whatever they want. Your life, wife kids lives? Your compassion, want to do the right thing, pfffffffft. I get it, Iām kinda with you, everyone deserves forgiveness, but at what point do we stop and admit that person is a lost cause, canāt help them, he is a danger to anyone in his path. We āthinkā we are civilized by putting them in prison, but the costs per inmate are over $70k a year now. Sorry, in some cases you just need to walk away, turn your back, give the guys organs to others and move on.

Ā Potter CharlesĀ ā Letās seeā¦ Trump found out he was going to lose the election almost a year before election day. Trump began to prepare, sowing seeds of doubt before the first vote was cashed, Trump was saying the only way he could lose was if the Democrats cheated. Why would someone start claiming election fraud before the election? The answer is simple, Trump is a businessman a ConMan a salesman extraordinaire, Trump is a master manipulator and a habitual liar. When he found out he wasnāt going to win he started the program of deception, misinformation and lies all to try and stay in office. Of the 173 I think I could be wrong on that, lawsuits only one single lawsuit was actually won. In Texas a county that had a law stating vote or poll watchers must be in the same room, the county had built glass rooms inside of the larger vote counting room. A recount was ordered, which changed nothing. Had you watch multiple videos from multiple different stations and sources on the trials or court cases filed trying to prove a election fraud, you would know what you are saying is pure BS.. Giuliani, for exampleā¦ When question with his pile of papers and demanding that the REPUBLICAN judge start a trial, Robert Giuliani was interrupted four times in a row. The judge kept asking him to present any evidence of actual voter fraud or voter fraud that was witnessed. Four times Robert Giuliani gave a nonsensical stupid answer in left field without any information. Then the judge ask him one more time asking him to be clear in his answer, and Giuliani said āNo, but we just know it happened.ā. The judge responded, ācase dismissed.ā You are spouting lies based on lies based on lies that have been repeated so many times you actually believe the crap youāve been told. This is called manipulation, you have been manipulated and you are clueless about it.

Ā @ilonapeck7022Ā ā History books would disagree. Are you an idiot or a paid Russian bot? Russia invaded a neutral country, Finland, during WW2 and occupied it. The Finnish people resisted, killing depending on who you ask from 5x to 12x more Russians than they lost. Russian commanders are well known for their... ārespectā for the ferocity of the people of Finland. Russia outmatched Finland in every possible way, and Finlandās people fought for their nation. Thereās a point Iām trying to make... Russia takes Ukraine and claims victory. You REALLY think that will end this? Invade the USA and every man and woman would fight the occupation force and make damn sure the invading nation regretted ever coming here, I would expect the same for every free nation in the world, such as Ukraine. Communist dictators like Putin think they can win, when they canāt, they will never ever win, until every last person who remembers freedom is dead. The cost of taking Ukraine will be extreme, and it wonāt stop until Putin is gone. You need to take that message back to your Russian employers, they underestimate a free citizens desire to remain free, this will not end well.

Ā @YardKat666Ā ā If I remember correctly, it was over a year until the trial, and while the kid was seen by multiple doctors, he spent most of that year +/- at a rehab hospital, HealthSouth. The woman did have insurance, Medicaid I think, she did whatever the lawyers recommended. If you estimate the rehab costs at $40k, plus PT, Doctors, etc. at equal to double that, add in whatever other billable items costā¦ Iām āguessingā $200k for about one years care. That leaves whatā¦ $3.4 million for the kid? No matter how you slice thisā¦ I feel the woman and child got screwed by the lawyer. But like others who have expressed disbelief, I do not know all of the details of what happened in the following decade, just her side. All I know for sure is the details from the initial settlement, then spent some time with her a decade later where she told her side of the story. To put it politely, the woman looked to me like a drug addict, so did she find a way to bleed whatever was left for the kid? Maybeā¦ I have no clue.

Why? Because 25 LGBT kids attempt to commit suicide every minute, it is a big issue. Every LGBT person remembers THAT moment when they realized they had a secret. Kids grow up, come of age, and would rather be dead than gay. THAT is why we care, knowledge is the way to help kids tease others less because they are different, ignorance leads us to make their lives worse. There is NO agenda other than wanting to not be harassed, bullied, told we should have been aborted, etc. And your ignorance to assume that only LIBās hate this bill makes me want to puke. All yāall are 100% behind antiabortion, but gay kids committing suicide, ehh, letās make it worse!

Adrian Valenzuela ā Probably. But Iāve been near (closer to the police than the two they were yelling at) police in an emergency situation. Four officers all shouting... something... I couldnāt tell what.. at the two. In hindsight and after watching a video, the officers were yelling freeze, get down on the ground, donāt move, put your hands on your head, hands in the air, and get down all in a cacophony of screams and cuss words. We were 5 feet in front of the officers, and the perps, the two bad guys were 20 feet ahead of us. I froze and turned around, not because I could understand them but because I wanted to know why someone was screaming at me, but the cops just ignored us. My point was, that was a chaotic moment. Four officers, all screaming gibberish at the top of their lungs, I must have watched that video 25 times trying to figure out what they were trying to say. My point is if we had no clue what the police wanted or were instructing them to do and were a few feet in front of the cops, the criminals were just as clueless. I really donāt think police understand that people canāt hear or understand them when they are all yelling something different at the same time at someone.

Out of USA's Manipulation Free to speak ā My last visit was October of 2019, that was my 3rd visit for the year. Chinaās growth is remarkable, seriously impressive! The people for the most part are wonderful! And every single trip I take I am humbled when I return, America isnāt perfect, we know this. But... this has nothing to do with Chinaās aggression against Hong Kong. Absolutely nothing. You say Iām brainwashed, but I disagree, Iām concerned for the people there! China treats its citizens in many ways like property, meaning without respect. I get that phenomenal growth happens at a cost, but people matter! The income disparity is shocking, and yes I get the hypocrisy in that statement, we get our components manufactured there because of the low wages, yet I take issue with the common persons low wages. The worlds not perfect, no nation is perfect, all we can hope for is to be better each day, to try and strive towards a greater good. China is endangering EVERYTHING they have achieved because the most petty and stupid things! Treaty was active through 2046, HONOR IT. Donāt like what Journalists say, donāt imprison them, LISTEN TO THEM! Argue with them, understand that like in every aspect of civilization the cockroach theory applies. Thatās the see one, ten thousand exist statistic. Have a dozen customer complaints, assume you have an issue affecting 120k people. Have a dozen journalists saying the CCP is meddling in Japan and it isnāt right? LOOK INTO IT! ASK WHY! Journalists are influencers, they like the cockroach theory (actually documented fact) are a voice of hundreds of thousands of people, if not millions. China locking up journalists enraged the people of Hong Kong, THAT caused protests and then chinas responses caused riots. No, Iām not saying that the violence was justified or right. Iām saying Chinaās strong armed tactics made the situation ten times worse. Follow that logic out... escalating efforts on both sides accomplishes what exactly? Civil war? UN intervention? Companies the world over redirecting their sources to anywhere but China? Hello? How is this good for anyone? The government goofed, big time! The CCP erred in its actions and response. Hong Kong citizens are CHINESE CITIZENS! Treat them like it!
Seriously, I donāt know who you are, or why youāre spinning all of this propaganda to make China look good and the Hong Kong people out to be bad... NO ONE IS BELIEVING IT. China has opened up a can of worms, incorporated many western economical changes, created jobs like crazy, changed the surface of the nation like night and day over decades and it is still growing like crazy. Why is China, a world superpower so threatened by Hong Kong? Why canāt China be mature enough to say āWe will honor the treaty, and work towards a peaceful reintegration of Hong Kong in 25 years, and we will promise to keep the citizens of Hong Kong, Chinese citizens needs and freedoms they have become accustomed to as we transition.ā Riots stop, protests stop, release the jailed journalists, and yes... keep the people who damaged city or government property in jail for a FAIR amount of time.
What China doesnāt seem to comprehend is that people matter, and China has some wonderful people! The CCP rules at the peopleās consent, not their own. Want to keep China strong and growing? Recognize the rights of Hong Kongās people, and honor them as they have changed living in a pseudo democratic environment. That change isnāt bad or good, itās just change. The only constant is change, can China change and adapt to the changing factors in their nation? At this point I doubt it. All we see is an angry China exercising its muscle and trying to dominate their own people. The same dominance China is asserting over Japan, and other areas. Why? To what end? All youāre doing is showing the world China is seriously flawed, trouble is brewing, and every nation in the world knows they need to make plans about to WHAT to do if relations with China go south. Because an unstable China destabilizes the world. If you think the worlds nations, such as the USA canāt find alternatives to Chinese products, you might want to rethink your position. It wonāt be easy but the balls already started rolling, we are considering our options, other nations are placing bids, and we are inking contracts one at a time. Itās nothing āagainst Chinaā as you no doubt assume, its business. We canāt be held hostage by an unstable CCP that just happens to control a large percentage of our product lines, we are looking BECAUSE of Chinaās actions in Hong Kong, because of what we see as an unstable Chinese business environment, because our two nations (thanks to Trump) seem to be at odds. And China... holy cow. They are orchestrating the entire concert of events daring the world to challenge them. Are you sure you wish to go there? Over Hong Kong? To risk your progress inertia? What happens when what are now cities of skyscrapers become angry hungry unemployed workers? Itās like the Chinese leaders are operating with blinders on, ignoring the future implications of their actions?

ēæä¹ē„ ā True, HSR's normally donāt have sleeper cars except in China. Almost all HSR's are used for commuter traffic. But the USA has sleeper cars, and we do have "higher speed" (still slow by international standards) rail sections, but to do HSR would as I just mentioned in my previous reply, would require new tracks with much more graceful curves as our current rail tracks make relatively sharp turns, too sharp for HSR. Thatās why they were going to start with a corridor through the middle of the USA, that would allow standard speeds in the cities on existing tracks, and higher speeds on the new tracks between the major cities. If I remember correctly the scrapped plan was to have an arc beginning around LA, curving towards San Diego, the east near Phoenix towards El Paso, arcing northeast to pass north of DFW, through to below Chicago, then onto New York. Initially the only HSR was to be that main corridor, trains would slow to our current speeds to spur off to the cities. This would allow them to be serviced as well. If I remember correctly the plan was non stop service in 12-18 hours, and trains with stops to take about two days to cover the same route. Iām speaking for example overnight service (or day) from LAX to PHX or DFW, DFW-DEN etc. All I know is that I fly frequently for work, I would, as would many, prefer rail, but itās not time or cost effective. If it were possible to go from say DFW-LAX, LAX-DEN, DFW-CHI overnight, so passengers could board, eat, sleep, shower and go... I for one would jump at the opportunity. It COULD work, Amtrak could be profitable, but who has two days to get from Dallas to Atlanta? HSR would give people the choice.

Bushrod Rust Johnson ā Yes! Absolutely ridiculous! But also crazy brilliant IMHO. And you are half right, we took a standard HSR car from France to Spain. But from Madrid to Portugal we took a sleeper compartment and enjoyed a truly excellent excellent meal. Went to sleep, woke up, had a shower, breakfast and arrived in Lisbon. Keeping a train system going to cater to those people who donāt like to fly or drive, when the route isnāt profitable... THAT is insane. All Iām saying is that the plan the airlines squashed had merit and held the promise of both increasing ridership and revenues by making trains viable, cost and time effective. Step a multi-track route from CA, thru AZ, NM, TX, LA, GA and up to the NYC area. HSR only on the main corridor, all branches off to any respective city would be standard rail tracks, pending stage two. I travel frequently, I fly the day or evening before, check in to a hotel, eat, sleep, work, repeat. I mention this because if a business profiles for people like me, who travel, could easily justify a train!

Derek Ortiz ā Good for you! Iām in Texas, we love Fords here. Several of my friends have them and love them. But it might be of note, that after they say they love them, great trucks, very reliable... that they all later say oh, I did have to have the motor mounts replaced, a muffler... but that was my fault, a front shock, a this... but that was all little stuff and all covered by warranty. No biggie. How many times has yours been the shop? And no, oil, air filters, tires, brakes donāt count. Wear and tear items aside, how many times? My Ford had 2 tows, three shop repairs in the 40k miles in the two years I owned it, in addition to several minor warranty repairs. My Toyota Tundra has over 150k miles in five years... and as of yet... has never had a failure. Nothing has broken.

Ā @stevestults1111Ā ā I half agree with your āa locked up firearm is no good for protection,ā comment. But there are fingerprint reader + code + key lock boxes and gun safes. I have a small gun safe bolted to my nightstand and one bolted in my car. It takes all of one or two seconds to have the gun in my hand if itās ever needed. Iām sure youāre going to respond wonāt work if you are hit and fingers bloody, and you are correct. It would take an extra 15 to 30 seconds to enter the code, about the same if I needed the key, So youāre right, Iād be dead possibly. But I also frequently open the safe when I start my car or hit the sack, and just tap it closed when I get out or up. IMHO, thatās a small price to pay to keep a gun from being stolen. Which by the way, is where most guns used in crimes come from. Most common sources are theft from homes, usually by someone who knows you have unsecured weapons or finds them on entry, or from public sales like garage or flea markets.

Ā @d3bbi339Ā ā No, I donāt āknowā what the founders intent was outside of what history books and records of that time tell us. The 2a intent was to create a balance of power in the people, lest the government turn dictatorial. And you are correct, the āwell armed militiaā line is now comical given the military we have today that couldnāt have been imagined when the constitution was inked. That a bunch of citizens armed with firearms could defend against jets, tanks and attack helicopters is laughable. But your statements indicate you donāt understand my perspective at all. A gun or āassault rifleā doesnāt do anything, it just has the capability to give you a chance to survive an attempt. Iāve been robbed, held at gunpoint for four hours and the police afterwards were like āno big deal, you can file a report if you want but theyāll never catch the guy.ā No gun has ever jumped out and shot someone, people did that. Did the availability of the gun mean they used it instead of a hammer, axe or shovel? Absolutely. We are blaming the gun, and ignoring the human factor. The human factor IS THE CAUSE. And our constitution was written in pencil āļø, which means as public opinion shifts if we donāt work together to curb gun violence, we WILL face the loss of the second amendment. And then law abiding citizens will turn in their guns, and criminals will laugh.

Ā @LanwarderĀ ā With respect, Iāve driven Trucks all over the USA in all weather. Texas, heck every state, has unique weather in some respect. Where you are it stays cold for months through winter, you gat 3ā of snow and once plowed you can drive, you get traction. Occasional ice issues yes. Every few years Texas dips below freezing during a rain storm creating freezing rain on warm-ish roads conditions. There is no traction, the warmer roads continually melt and freeze creating a driving on snot over ice effect. Traction isnāt impaired, THERE IS ZERO TRACTION. Snow has traction, ice has traction, water on top of perfectly smooth ice has no traction. Everything else youāre spot on. The issue with the last Texas ice storm February 2021 was the power grid, Texas is independent, has no power agreements with other states to share loads when power shortages occur. So when any problems or high demand occurs we have no options but to shut areas off. Did Texas resolve this issue, hell no! We bought small generators for small public buildings to create āwarming centersā where people could go FOR A FEW HOURS to warm up while their house and pipes freeze. Thatās their entire plan! Small generators with enough fuel for 4-6 hours. Need gas? Waitā¦ the gas station needs electricity, no gas available.

So, if we are all sinners, and all sin is equal, and all sin can be forgiven, why is being gay the big bad? Yet Trump, saved in 2016 on the campaign trail, who after being asked if he was saved replied "From what?" They explained and pretty much put him in a no win situation, be saved now or we walk... so he reluctantly prayed with the evangelical leaders present. Yes he continued to use prostitutes, have affairs, cheat and lie repeatedly ever since.
So letās look at what the Bible says; In the Old Testament in Leviticus it states (rough quote) āIf a man lays with another man as he lays with a woman, that is an abomination in gods eyes." 1. The Old Testament makes a lot of statements we ignore, you should be stoned (killed, not drugged) if you eat shellfish, have sex outside of marriage, wear fabrics made of more than one fabric, etc., yet we chose to ignore these laws of god. 1a. The word that was translated for "abomination" literally translates as not profitable. In Hebrew there are 6 words for crimes, ranging from not profitable such as stealing bread for food, to murder, which combined with other words to range from accidental or in defense, to murder for revenge or profit. 1b. The first scriptures in the New Testament state that "the rules, laws, and covenants in the Old Testament are no more." But yet the ONE SCRIPTURE in the Old Testament you cling to is in Leviticus. 2. In 2 Corinthians Paul states that "neither murderers, adulterers, thieves, abusers of themselves, those that sell themselves sexually, or homosexuals (some translations say men who sell themselves, some say effeminate men) will not enter the kingdom of heaven." But everyone STOPS READING there, the very next scripture Paul says "But I can do all of these things, but they are lawful for me as I am mastered by none, for it is not profitable for me to do so.ā (Note the correct translation of not profitable in this verse.) Paul then says āBut then so were some of you, but you were saved, justified and sanctified by God." So ALL of these crimes can be forgiven, and their actions are sanctified, which means a special condition set aside by God, an exception.
Let me be clear, we are all products of our environment, meaning that our beliefs are formed by what we see, hear and learn. If EVERY bit of information you learn says homosexuality is bad, you believe it as fact. But that doesnāt make it fact, read the Bible YOURSELF and draw your own conclusions.

Ā @ezacher4634Ā ā Iāve seen that video. Please watch it again, he did say what you assert, and also says āhe had discussed the situation with President Obama,ā adding hat the State Department was concerned about giving aid to Ukraine, that there was clear evidence of corruption in the Ukraine government, and that their chief prosecutor was not investigating anything, let alone internal government misappropriation of funds. So, WITH PERMISSION, Biden withheld aid to Ukraine on the condition the top prosecutor was replaced, citing government corruption fears as a reason.
And it absofreakingloutely has everything to do with Trump, because Trump misused/misstated those facts to justify his withholding aid to Ukraine. The different is Biden did it openly, Trump did it for POLITICAL GAIN, wanting Ukraine to ANNOUNCE an investigation into a Hunter Biden, even though three had already been done (one by Ukraine, one state department for conflict of interest, and one performed by the FBI.). This was just an attempt to spin dirt, muddy the waters so-to-speak, immediately before the election.
You clearly dislike both sides, I can certainly understand that, LOL! But Biden withheld funds openly, with permission, for a good reason. Trump withheld funds for political dirt to make his opponent look dirty. And I GET it, Hunter Biden was at that time a coke addict, and the situation reeks of a foreign country paying (indirectly) for access to a US VP. It may very well have been, butā¦ THEY COULDNāT PROVE ANYTHING despite 3 different independent investigations. If you ask me to bed you a coke on this, Iād bet you a coke that Hunter did do what they said, but we may never have the real answer. Soā¦ WE do not know for sure. And if youāre concerned about the downfall of USAās republic, as well you should be, Trump should be public enemy number 1 to you. Trump actually did create the big lie, did try to take over the country by force, and DID try and use the US military on US soil, against US citizens (unconstitutional), to keep himself in office and in power. Have you been following the hearings? Itās scary as hell!

Ā @fujicrew170Ā ā āFake Voting?ā Please tell me that you know that this was THE most watched, and audited election in history. Trumps legal team played every dirty trick in the book to manipulate the election before and after the election. They litigated hundreds of cases, all shopped to trusted Republican judges, and of all the cases won just one. It was in a county in Texas, where the local ordinance said vote counters had to be in the same room, but because of COVID they put the Dems in one glass room, and the Reps in another glass room, inside the large vote counting area. The judge ordered a recount and it changed nothing. In every other case (thereās a telling video of the cases here on YouTube) the case was dismissed when the judge asked direct questions. My favorite was Giuliani he asked directly āwhat actual evidence do you have a voter fraud?ā And Giuliani responded āwell we donāt have any evidence but we just know it happened.ā See, they can lie everywhere and itās legalā¦ EXCEPT to a judge in court. If they do they risk being in contempt, and loosing their law license. My point is simple, this election was THE most scrutinized election in history. Not one single shred of evidence was found.
And before the election, Republican lawyers litigated in every state, succeeding in 16 states to change the was mail in votes were accepted, from mailed by/postmarked by, to RECEIVED by Election Day. He also installed his own guy at the post office, DeJoy (?) to slow things down, he removed mailboxes in EVERY MAJOR CITY, and removed sorting machines. They also changed the drop off points in 16 states from city buildings to COUNTY BUILDINGS, in the midst of COVID. This meant that some people late in mailing in their ballots had to drive over four hours to turn in their votes at their county courthouses.

Ā @atomicboy8972Ā Trust buy verify? Hello? The police don't know either one of them. Imagine that was YOUR house, what crime is there in asking someone's name? This "Pastor" created an adversarial situation, not the police. All he had to do was respond, but NO! He said he doesn't have to show his ID instead. Would you want your house robbed, then find out the police saw the guy, but did nothing? Imagine yourself a cop, you get a call of a trespasser, some guy and some woman say I'm a pastor, live over there, and a woman says he's a neighbor, but you have no proof. Let him go... and he robs the place and the woman who said she knows him turns out to be his accomplice. Did your parents not ever tell you YOU DON'T ARGUE WITH THE POLICE! YOU ARGUE IN COURT LATER.

Ā @johnnypicĀ ā What? Iāve been robbed and beaten before, I did not resist, I gave them my wallet, self defense is IMPORTANT! A gun is a tool, like a pocketknife or screwdriver. The gun alone does NOT make a person a threat unless THAT PERSON IS A THREAT ANYWAY! Iāve carried for almost 20 years after that incident, and luckily had no other incidents. When I became conscious, woke up in a puddle of blood from a head wound and serious cuts and bruises I called the police, who did not come for two hours after the call. I was in the hospital for a week before the police found me, and then it was like āWhatever, you lived, be thankful, theyāll never catch the guys.ā When I got home my house was burglarized, and the policeās only response was āyou have insurance, right? So what else do you want from me?ā The police arenāt going to be there when something happens, yikes!

Jan PhD ā I get your anger, and itās 67,000,000 babies aborted since Roe vs. Wade was made law 47 some odd years ago. Please know that NO ONE wants to kill babies! And also know Chi Cago has a valid point, churches pour money into Republican coffers to āsave babiesā but did you know that money goes to fight for anti-abortion and none for pro-life? The Republican Party actually fights Pro-Life efforts! Why would that do that, fight ONLY for their Anti-Abortion cause and AGAINST saving children, saying that any compromise is wrong? Compromise that would save lives. They block efforts to introduce a 3 day waiting period, to require mothers to be informed of their options when facing that decision. They block laws that would protect mothers to beās jobs, housing, education and medical assistance. Why? The answer to me is obvious... they, the Republicanās donāt care one iota about the babies lives, they care only about the money the fight brings in.
Youāve been manipulated and you donāt even know it.

Kiki DaPiki ā for a moment there I was wondering if we were related, but my relatives are Christian. And yes, it is absolutely amazing, remind them of Trumps 73 out of court lawsuits for sexual assault or harassment, thousands of lawsuits for his business dealings all over the last decade, his wifeās model -escort pages for clients of means still online for your viewing pleasure, her videos of boy-girl and girl-girl action. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING will diminish their support for Trump. What I find chilling is that in the name of faith, they have abandoned theirs, their principals, morals, and IMHO souls. Itās like they are bewitched by the anti-Christ.

Ā @ceejayhorsesupplies4321Ā ā Letās look at your statement:
1. Economy, part Trumps COVID response, part Trumps tariff war w China. Trump was told if they didnāt act, the death toll from Covid in the states could be as high as 300,000, Trump lied to the public, called it a hoax, discouraged vaccinations and mask wearing, now we are nearing 800k dead. Tariff war, Trump. They estimate 2 years before Taiwan can complete the first factory (it was already planned), and 6 years before they can meet worldwide demand. Trump started a tariff war with the USAās largest supplier nation.
2. Unemployment, Trump did say he had the best unemployment statistics ever, but he lied. Look it up. Omicron virus on the rise, yup! Trump set the ball in motion, made a virus political, played down safety measures and made things exponentially worse for everyone.
3. Illegals. Has Biden let in more, probably. But America is a LAND MADE ENTIRELY OF RELOCATED PEOPLES! All, and I mean ALL of our ancestors immigrated to the USA from somewhere else. Trumps āZERO TOLERANCEā Policy separated families, almost 4 thousand kids were separated from their parents FOREVER, no way to find or return them. Almost 5,000 died while in custody thanks to Trump. Thereās no easy, clearly right answer here. Frankly Iām glad we are arenāt killing them anymore, they werenāt criminals, just people seeking a better lifeā¦ like YOUR ancestors. Jobs? Do illegal take low paying temporary jobs no one else wants, absolutely. Are they responsible for keeping wages, inflation, prices down as a result? Also true.
4. Wasteful news about Trump, no truer statement has ever been said by a lying Republican. We would ALL love to see the low life gravy sucking pig of a human known as āTrumpā to fade into history. But Trump REMAINS A THREAT! He still has supporters, racists, white nationalists, religious zealots all chomping at the bit for a 2024 Presidential run. Trump tried to ACTUALLY steal an election while screaming the Dems were doing it. Trump used foreign nations TWICE to influence our elections, tried every possible conceivable way to cheat, rob or steal to keep himself in office, tried to get his people to vote twice, slowed down the post office, passed laws restricting when where and how mail-in votes and drop-off ballots were accepted (In Houston county for example voters have one single drop off point allowed by law for almost 5 million voters in the county.), Trump stacked the deck and then tried to use the Supreme Court to keep him in office, tried to replace valid states electoral voters, tried to coerce states to falsify ballots, tried to order the AG to call the election invalid, tried to overthrow the capital, tried on the same say to first use the National Guard to support the rioters, then the US military to keep him in office.
So letās seeā¦ 3 counts of treason, attempted overthrow of the government, attempted destruction of our Democracy, attempted coupā¦ all over Trumps lies. Did I miss anything?

Ā @TheJester-ct5piĀ ā They didnāt find 10k votes from one person, please wrap your head around this, they found 14,000 DIFFERENT voters cast two votes, one by mail-in votes, one in person, all for Trump. This is well known, and was expected, as Trump disparaged mail in voting, AND encouraged āhis people to vote twiceā once by mail, once in person. My church pastor spoke of this, saying is was against manās law, but not against Gods law, God wanted Trump to win, and if it ever became an issue, Trump would do a mass pardon.

Ā @MrMinima86Ā ā Had you searched you would have found many reports like this one...
āNews and official reports are filled with accounts of armed people at the Capitol.
Fourteen people tied to the Jan. 6 attack are facing federal charges related to bringing or using dangerous weapons inside the building and two are facing firearms-related charges, according to the U.S. Attorneyās Office for the District of Columbia.
NBC News reported that within a week after the attack a dozen guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition had been found on seven people arrested before and after the Capitol riot.
Cleveland Grover Meredith, drove to Washington from Colorado with an assault-style Tavor X95 rifle with a telescopic sight, a Glock 9 mm with high-capacity magazines and more than 2,500 rounds of ammunition, including at least 320 rounds of armor-piercing bullets, NBC reported. Reuters said Meredith texted "War time" after hearing Vice President Mike Pence would count electoral votes from states Trump lost.
In the trunk of Lonnie Coffmanās vehicle, police found an AR-15-style rifle, a shotgun, a crossbow, several machetes, smoke grenades and 11 Molotov cocktails, Reuters reported. Another man, Christopher Alberts of Maryland, was stopped as he left the Capitol grounds after a police officer spotted a loaded handgun on his hip.
Many more people armed themselves by more unorthodox means, causing damage and injury.
Robert Sanford, 55, of Pennsylvania, was allegedly caught on video throwing a fire extinguisher at a group of police officers. David Blair, 26, was seen hitting officers with a lacrosse stick, NBC said. Others had pepper spray, brass knuckles, a pipe and pocket knives, and one man was carrying a "stinger whip," a tool with blunt and whip-like edges marketed for self-defense and escaping a locked vehicle.
One rioter was caught on video beating a police officer with a flagpole bearing an American flag, NBC Washington reported. The New York Times reviewed video that showed people using stolen police shields, sticks and crutches as weapons.
And the man photographed with his feet on the desk of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was carrying a 950,000-volt stun gun walking stick, House impeachment manager Stacey Plaskett revealed Feb. 10.
Not to mention pipe bombs were found near the Capitol at Republican and Democratic party headquarters.ā

Ahh, hate to break it to yāall but Trump is Satanās puppet, the Republican Party has been deceived in epic fashion. You, Republicans, in the name of God, have elected to the highest position in the nation a man who lies 6-18 times daily, married a prostitute and who has had 73 affairs and averages 3000 lawsuits for his business practices over the last decade. Doubt me? Research his own law firms data, itās all there. Doubt his wifeās past? Use google chrome to automatically translate any of his wifeās model/escort web pages clearly stating "Men of Distinction," or "Clients of means only." Kudos to her, she did NOT work cheap. And while you may doubt one web site, thereās a dozen. You may doubt pictures, but video is hard and expensive to manipulate... there are multiple videos of her online for your viewing pleasure, with both men and women. Seriously people, am I the only one who was surprised as all those men of faith laid their hands on Trump in prayer that Trump did not burst into flames?

NYC girl ā Nowadays darn near everyone has a gun. Crime affects everyone. I got a CHL permit after I was robbed and held at gunpoint for over three hours and the police were not even interested in taking a report. Does that make me or this man a threat to the police or anyone else? Heck NO! The issue here is police over-reacting and racial bias. Iāve been stopped and questioned while running and driving. "Yes officer, I have a gun in my car," "Doesnāt everyone?" is the common response. "Yes Officer, I have a gun in my pocket, my license and CHL are in my other pocket," "May I see them please? Your license, not the gun" is a common response. I donāt know the details of this incident, Iām not being judgmental either. Iām just saying having a gun is not, should not be a death sentence. Happens all the time, no big deal. There does however seem to be a trend where police feel āthreatenedā by blacks more than any other race. An officer "feeling threatened" is not reason alone to shoot a suspect IMHO, being threatened is of course a different matter entirely. Yes, I know. Radical statement. You are now free to verbally roast me over a fire. š

marcus bennett & EVERYONE ā All Obama's fault? All the REP/DEM's fault? Letās examine the facts and history please... Years ago the democrats added issue of Pro-Choice to their "FOR" list to attract voters to their side. Rep's chose Pro-Life for the same reason. Then the Dem's added Gay Rights to their causes, and one year later the Republican Party sided with the religious right against gay rights. Not for ANY religious reason, their stated goal at the meeting was to "Polarize the voters." It worked. Then Obama spoke out FOR gay marriage, THEN the SCOTUS made Marriage Equality the Law, and it just 'happened' to occur while Obama was in office. Now, years later my Pastor literally screams at the congregation "If you are a Christian, you WILL vote Republican, or YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN!" Republicans believe they are Godly and that Democrats are not. How and why do you think Kaveneaugh was nominated and appointed no matter what he had done or how he behaved? You only have to read his mission statement and his interview notes, he promised two things; Work to reverse 1. Roe vs. Wade (abortion), and 2. Marriage Equality. No joke, Why do you think NOTHING mattered about Kaveneaugh's past? He was a shoe in, it was a done deal before he was even nominated! WAKE UP PEOPLE! We are ALL being manipulated! Republicans and Democrats alike! Even though we all KNOW that there are Christian Democrats... The Republicans cause is BIBLICAL. Why do you think that Clinton was almost impeached because of ONE affair, but Trump who has been PROVEN by his own legal papers to have settled 73 Sexual Harassment lawsuits in the last TEN years alone was elected? Why are ALL of Trump and his teams lies, some blatant, all excused? Hello?

I am curious if the Hebrew word for abomination was the same used in Leviticus? (For a man to lay with a man is an abomination in the lords eyes.) my point is the same Hebrew word is used in 1 Corinthians 16ā¦9ā¦something (sorry I forget). Where Paul speaks of the people not going to heaven, the effeminate, abusers of themselves, murders, rapists and adulterers etcā¦ Paul says but such were some of you, but I can do all of these things for it is āNOT-PROFITABLEā for me, for I am saved, sanctified and justified by the Lord. (Rough quote). The same Hebrew word for abomination was translated as ānot profitable.ā In Hebrew there are 6 words for crimes, sometimes combined, that ranged from āstealing bread for foodā (not profitable) to murder to take someone elseās property. My point is I donāt question scripture, I question our human interpretation of it. š

Boogiepop ā Agee, what our President did, George W. Bush, claiming that any country that didnāt support us was against us, was as wrong as it gets. That is indeed on us. The nation (we) were told that Iraq and Afghanistan were where the terrorists had come from, and we were told that weapons of mass destruction were there when there were absolutely none. Now we know that that the Pakistani military was directly involved, and there were NO WMDās present and that almost all of the terrorists were from and were trained in Saudi Arabia. That is a perfect example that America and its politics are not perfect.
As to your comments to that other guy who said some nasty things against the Muslim Faith. Please know that not all of what he said was false, here in the USA we have many Muslims, and we also have an occasional incident or āmercy killingā that makes the news. One woman I worked with... back in 1985 or 6... was killed by her father in Plano, Texas for dating an American. She was distraught for days before because her father was furious that she had fallen in love with and wanted to marry an American. Her father accused her of infidelity which she was shocked at and denied. I believed her, she was very smart, well spoken, and seemed to be a genuinely wonderful very honest person. Then she stopped coming into work, and over the weekend we learned that her father had taken her life. I think people are people, some are dark and twisted, and some are wonderful, of all faiths. Donāt take what I said as hate towards Muslims, Islam or you... just pointing out that your disbelief in everything he said is not quite factual. Sorry.

Ā @davidkronestrand5998Ā ā The troubles here in America started with the overturning of what was called the fairness doctrine in media. Media in America used to be required to be accurate. If administration says something wrong, they had to publish a retraction in the same timeslot or media such as a newspaper, that it was originally printed or broadcast from. President Ronald Reagan changed the law using the argument that it interfered with free speech. So no news organizations are no longer required to be accurate in what they say, such as Fox News is they have been sued multiple times and have use the defense, successfully, but they are not a news organization. Fox News is an entertainment channel. Sadly all republicans now believe that it is OK to lie like a dog, in the name of free speech, and honesty, integrity, character, and honor are now a thing of the past. And yes, this is a change that I wish did not ever happen as we as a nation are better than this.

Ā @charlebrowngaĀ ā Re: Targeting people from out of state. You just might have a point thereā¦ I was driving with Texas plates to Nevada, on a major highway, and he gave a BS reason for the stop. I did not get a ticket because of the dash cam, but he tried to say I was speeding and weaving. I calmly pointed and said that (the camera) would show that not to be the case in court. I was an idiot, answered all questions honestly, on vacation, meeting friends in Vegas, and when he asked if I was carrying money I said a few bucks for Vegas. I was never expecting to have to show it to him, and at that time had no clue it could possibly be an issue. If I had it to do over again, I should have been polite, and answered only generally. I mean, sure Iāve had a hundred bucks in my wallet, instead of telling him I have some cash for the trip. In hindsight, I may have fit the profile.

Ā @TheCh0sen0neisawesomĀ ā So... the cancelled checks paid to the Russian firms, the contracts obtained, thatās false news? Seriously? Trump and/or his campaign PAID RUSSIAN COMPANIES to both dig up dirt on Hillary (the server break in), and place ads on multiple platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Tumbler, etc. These are verified facts that were outlined in the FBI notes in the Mueller Report. We are not just saying Trump colluded with Russia, we have proof! That is TREASON by definition. Also with Ukraine in the next election, no matter how dumb you are you had the transcripts of the conversation, even recordings of Trump saying he was going to hold off paying them pending their announcing, not actually doing or opening as that had been done, an investigation into Hunter Biden. Itās on tape, clear as day. Trump just wanted to muddy the waters casting doubt on Biden just before the election.
Bottom line, you are saying you will follow Trump no matter what, even if itās treason or trying to overthrow the country. Tell me, what is the definition of a cult? Perhaps it would help you to see an example, find a mirror to see a cult member.

Itās not just government communications, I work for a communications company. If you get a document or email saying company or department confidential, and take that out, email it, or share it or the contents in any way with someone outside your department or companyā¦ your job is in jeopardy. I had an employee who emailed a vendor who needed some information for a project to a vendor, it was stopped, and he was immediately suspended. I had to go to bat for him, explained why the data was needed by the vendor, and had I been asked, I would approved a partial disclosure. He was lucky, HR and the VP/Director reduced his termination to a 3 day suspension and he kept his job. EVERYONE knows how serious this is, but Trump and other Republicans are treating this as nothing serious.

Ā @LeticiaRODRIGUEZ-lx8omĀ ā LOL! That story is a self perpetuated put forth by Trump about himself; āPresident Trump said Thursday at a campaign rally in Greenville, N.C., that only Jesus Christ is more famous than he is.
"Someone said to me the other day, 'you're the most famous person in the world by far.' I said, 'no, I'm not'... they said, 'who's more famous?' I said, 'Jesus Christ'," Trump recounted, prompting cheers from his crowd of supporters.ā
And you actually believe a liar like Trump, a salesman, a conman, and a master manipulator that someone actually asked him that question, and that he didnāt create it to please his gullible Trumpets like you. Hilarious. You believe Trump, in an open marriage according to his current wife, is a Christian, when the first time he was near a church was for a photo op, then after being asked where he goes to church by the press, he and his wife went to one once.

Ā @GigaChadDuPlessisĀ proof? Seriously! Trump accused Hillary of working with the FBI to tap his campaign HQ phones, and more. Read the Mueller Report to see that Hillaryās campaign staff investigated a email server break in, they were stuck, so hired an IT firm, they traced to Russia, the IT firm hired a former CIA operative with experience working in Russia, who found the company involved and āpossible links to Trumpās campaign.ā They turned their information over to the Hillary Campaign HQ, who called the FBI, and turned over all that they had found to them. The FBI researched the documents, found the information credible, and OPENED THEIR OWN INVESTIGATION. The FBI tapped Trumpās phones as collusion, working with a foreign government to influence an election is against the law. Then even thou The Mueller Report stated āThere is ample evidence of both collusion and obstruction, we are unable to prosecute a sitting president at this time.ā Then Trump declared himself INNOCENT, COMPLETELY EXONERATED! And you Trumpets BELIEVED HIM! You shout LOCK HER UP! at rallies even though Trump started the email hack of Hillaryās servers by working through Russia. Many people went to prison for their roles in helping Trump do these things! They were independently tried in a fair court, by jurors of their peers, unbiased, and found guilty based on the evidence! Then trump tried to coerce Ukraine to āannounce that they were opening an investigation into the Bidenāsā, note not DO an investigation as that had already been done, just announce it. Again, a total of 14 of Trumps people were fairly tried, found guilty multiple felonies, Roger Stone got 7 convictions alone. Even in the senate impeachment trial, the Republicans opened with āNo witnesses will need to be called, as the presidents actions are not in question, they are proven, the question before us here is whether those actions are an impeachable offense or not. Again, the president was not impeached for what he did, declared himself innocent, AND YOU DOLTS BELIEVED HIM! And dude... just google what ever else you think I said that was wrong... and read for yourself. Everything I said was true!

Willis Allen Jr ā Do I dare chime in on this issue? Iāve always admired Cathy Griffin, but must admit that when I saw the original unedited video, with Trumps bloody head in her hand, I was shocked, it was in very poor taste. But then I was also shocked at the fallout, the negative comments were also in very poor taste. Whatās the difference between taking a photo of a fake dead trump, and thousands of people, some here on this very thread, saying she should literally have her head chopped off. For real. Hello? Sheās a comedian, her job description is literally to push the envelope and make people THINK! Was she wrong to take the photo? Probably. Were YOU wrong for for saying "Kill her," "Chop her head off," Yes, probably just as wrong! Why canāt we just take a deep breath and let her live her life?

I think everyone here including Cuomo, is missing the other valid point on why everyone supporting Trump ignores his actions. Ever since the Republican Party aligned with the religious right the division has grown between the two major parties. With each democratic party movement and mistake (Such as Clintonās affair) to align themselves with the liberal left the same thing has occurred. Republican sided with pro life, Democrats sided with pro-choice. Republicans cited against equality or LGBT individuals, Democrats cited for equality. And then Obama did they unthinkable, he came out publicly in support of marriage equality, and Republicans came out strongly against it. When marriage equality was passed by the supreme court, the sides and lines were drawn. Trump switch parties from independent to the Republican Party specifically to take a vantage of this and get elected. Trumps Fanbase believes him to be Christian like the entire Republican Party, and the Democrat party to be as unchristian as it gets. The issue is simple, it doesnāt matter what Trump says has done, or will do, because he is saved, and forgiven and therefore blameless in the eyes of God and then for everything, because they believe the Republican Party is godly and the Democrat party is not. Until Democrats convince the world that they have Christian values also, this divide in our nation will continue like a plague. This is how civil wars start, and if you look at our divided nationā¦ You should be able to see this as clearly as I do. THIS is why there is a division between church and state.

serena ā Good for him. I was talking about 911, September 11, 2001. Pakistan was involved. The Pakistani people took to the streets in joy over the 911 attacks, cheering, screaming praises of the 911 attacks, the news casts of that time, on that day, are still online for you to view. And afterwards Pakistan was found to have funded, trained, and plan the attacks, albeit in Saudi Arabia. Pakistanās military was directly involved. These are FACTS not assertions or assumptions.

Chaos Engagement ā I love it, Trumps father was a proud Nazi who came to Germany after WW2, and became a proud card carrying KKK member. That is cool. Yet you want to hold Buttigieg responsible for his fathers actions, which I have never ever heard of before and therefore highly doubt. Not to mention that Buttigieg is everything Trump is not, he is not a misogynistic, lying, adulterers, thieving, murdering, uneducated dolt. Buttigieg is a Yale graduate, speaks 5 languages, married once, war veteran.

No one considers it good, killing babies is THE last choice. But letās also be clear, Republicans have voted AGAINST every possible attempt to save those babies that we can, AGAINST all efforts to provide laws to protect school, jobs, housing assistance, pre-natal and medical care as well as adoption assistance. They vote against these life saving policies by saying it would incentivize pregnancy. Think about that, not joking. Republicans have also stated many times that they will make zero concessions in their plan not for altruistic saving babies lives logic, but because they donāt want to lessen the polarization and funding their position provides. Get that? Itās not about saving babies, they donāt want to endanger the revenue stream or loyalty the fight against abortion brings them. Republicans also vote against assistance for mothers to raise these unwanted children, again using the āit would incentivize pregnancy option.
Letās summarize, Republicans donāt want to help mothers, while they may be slightly against killing babies, they will do NOTHING to help mothers in that position. So whatās a mother to be supposed to do when she is pregnant and entering college? Republicans DEMAND she have that baby but donāt want to help care, feed, or provide any medical, job, educational guarantees that would allow the mother to take time off to have and raise the child. Daycare now costs depending on the state from $600 to $1,800 per month, and get no assistance whatsoever. It is my opinion that the state SHOULD do everything possible to enable mothers carry to term, then raise or put the child up for adoption. Being heartless to require them to have the child while withholding all help to do so is wrong. If the state wants to save that child, it needs to take an active role in helping that child. š

Matt is correct: āNonuplets (9)
A set of nonuplets was born on 13 June 1971, in Sydney, Australia, to Geraldine Brodrick and her husband, Leonard. They were five boys and four girls; two of the boys were stillborn, [148] and the last of the surviving babies, a boy named Richard, died six days after the birth.[149][150] Mrs Brodrick had two older daughters, Belinda and Jacqueline, both single births.[151]
A set of nonuplets was born on 26 March 1999, in Malaysia to Zurina Mat Saad. She had five boys and four girls (Adam, Nuh, Idris, Soleh, Hud, Aishah, Khadijah, Fatimah, and Umi Kalsom), but none of them survived more than 6 hours.[152]
A set of nonuplets was born on 4 May 2021, in Morocco to Malian couple Halima CissĆ© and Abdelkader Arby. They had five girls (Kadidia, Fatouma, Hawa, Adama & Oumou) and four boys (Mohammed VI, Oumar, Elhadji and Bah), all of whom initially appeared to be healthy.[153] A year later, BBC News reported that the nonuplets were all in perfect health on their 1st birthday.[154] The couple also has an elder daughter, Souda (b. 2019).[155]ā

Years ago, gay marriage, no gay marriage, I didnāt get it, not a big deal. Then I watched a documentary of the over a thousand benefits every American gets, that LGBT people donāt, it blew my mind! š±š¤Æ From partner insurance, benefits, health care, survivor benefits if a spouse passes sway, all of these stories of families cleaning out a house during the funeral, taking IRAās, bank and savings accounts, that the two had jointly but with an ID and a death certificate a close relative can take EVERYTHING. Gay marriage MATTERS as while we may not identify with them, THEY ARE NOT LESS HUMAN OR LESS AMERICAN.

Ā @Londyn406Ā ā Think about what you said, to them, Santos is a Christian, just like Trump. Both are willing to take up the cross and do or say anything to fight evil, both are forgiven, and both put in power by God, and both are doing Gods will on earth as in heaven. So to them, Santos is no more evil than Trump, both are flawed, and God has placed them in power to lead us. And yes, that is some crazy circular logic.

Anthony Cowden ā That is a common misconception as āSeparation of church and stateā is s concept, not a law. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." The phrase "separation of church and state" itself does not appear in the United States Constitution. And your statement also belies a lack of understanding of my point. "Trump is a Christian, he is forgiven, he was put in place by God to save our country and return it to its rightful place as a God fearing nation." (Another quote from my pastor.) nothing he said, says, had done or does matters, what matters is saving babies, punishing sinners, and faith. There is literally a mentality that Democrats are baby killing hedonistic godless people, and it is the republicans god given mandate to save the USA. Ever wonder why trump supporters are so blind in their support of him? THIS is it.

Dustin Parker ā No, "Separation of church and state" is paraphrased from Thomas Jefferson and used by others in expressing an understanding of the intent and function of the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution which reads: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." nothing about Christianity, nothing else stated. Sorry bud.
The phrase "separation between church & state" is generally traced to a January 1, 1802, letter by Thomas Jefferson, addressed to the Danbury Baptist Association in Connecticut, and published in a Massachusetts newspaper. Jefferson wrote,
Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State. Adhering to this expression of the supreme will of the nation in behalf of the rights of conscience, I shall see with sincere satisfaction the progress of those sentiments which tend to restore to man all his natural rights, convinced he has no natural right in opposition to his social duties."

Please tell me you are aware of the specifics. Rapp with his then boyfriend both underage crashed (not invited) a cast party at Spaceyās house, found alcohol (not served), got bored, found a bedroom and was falling asleep when Spacey entered drunk, woke him up and told Rapp he was cute. Rapp responded āYouāre NOT, youāre old!ā To which Spacey replied āPartyās over, time for you to leave.ā No sex, no assault, no #metoo type of moment unzipping pants and asking āhow much do you want this role?ā Years later, when Spacey heard the news, he apologized for making him uncomfortable and told the world he was gay. Later multiple people came forward and said they were also approached, police investigated, and the common denominators for ALL CASES were 1. Over 18. 2. Spacey made a pass, they declined, both went their separate ways. 3. No charges were filed. For thisā¦ Kevin Spacey lost his career, and we were all cheated out of his future performances. And dolts like you call him a sex offender. Is being Gay a crime?

HughMorris69 ā Partially true. While he didnāt get the majority of votes, he won by electoral votes which is what counts. What should irk you (everyone) is that some states electoral votes are set in stone based on that states actual votes. Other states swing, or all of their electoral votes go to the majority candidate. And some states the electoral votes can be changed by the electoral voter, and can be therefore bought. Not joking! Ever wonder where all those presidential appointees come from? Electorates are approached and asked, switch your vote to us and we can get you... with a list of perks. I had a coworker whoās mom was an electoral voter, she was offered a federal prison board position in Texas by Obamaās people, she accepted, and was paid $90k/annually for 3 days a month work. (Her vote might have been in a primary, Iāve slept since then.) My point is donāt say T-Rump wasnāt elected, he was, and by manipulating the system. Donāt like it? Then work to change it. The electoral vote system is outdated, created before any modern communications existed where it was near impossible to get an accurate vote count from the states to Washington, so they sent representatives. The Repās were assumed as they were able to take time off from work to travel to Washington, would be better educated, and community leaders of some type as they were chosen. None of this applies today.

Martha Orozco ā So you are like my relatives, you support Trump because he is a Republican, and republicans are Godly, and saved and forgiven, etc. And you supported the most criminal president, the most lies, the most crimes, who literally did marry a prostitute, and you still support him because you think him Christian. Oh, and Christian has an āHā in it, just saying.

Ā @npc-karenpfizer4466Ā ā Letās seeā¦ Trump is a master conman and liar who wrote a book, āThe Art of the Dealā outlining how to fleece people by appealing to their natural greed and trust. Trump lied about coronavirus resulting in the destabilization of the country, tens of thousands of deaths (had he told the truth instead of downplaying and calling COVID a Democratic hoax), worked with foreign nations to influence TWO elections, lie about it, hired a Russian firm to hack Hillaryās servers then blamed Hilary for deleting emails that she didnāt delete (the IT firm contracted did as normal procedures to repurpose the hardware), and the FBI had already copied, and then sold his followers on the Democrats cheating in the election, while he actually DID try and cheat in the election, then try and take over the country by legal means and illegal means ā The closest thing this country has ever had to a coup attempt. And YOU Republican dolts STILL support this low life anti-American lying conman. So YES! We absolutely want the truth known about him, we absolutely want all of Trumps dirty laundry aired publicly and known, PROVEN to everyone. Why? So this crap (and that is what it is) doesnāt REPEAT! Because if Trump and the Republican Party are not held accountable, you can be damned sure you simpletons will try to take over the country again. Obsessed? No. CAUSE FOR ALARM, ABSOFREAKINGLOUTELY!

Ā @miracleman8022Ā -- There is a lot to unpack in your letter. 1. Please tell me you are aware that the leaked letter from Justice Thomas, a black man, was the constitutionality of both same sex marriage AND interracial marriage. Think marriage equality is at risk, so is interracial marriage as Thomas clearly stated there are no protections for marriage in the US Constitution. Re: "LGBT is not normal," you might want to educate yourself. Homosexuality has been observed in every species with a brain, and if you're seeking God's purpose in nature you can find it in that. Homosexual couples adopt orphaned members of their species, protect and feed their flock, coven, harem or pack. As far as "Black people deserve more rights than gay people," your comment belies your bigotry. LGBT people are not lesser humans or lesser Americans than you, they are just people and deserve to be treated the same as you and I. When Jesus said the most important thing was "Love thy brother" he was speaking of all of humanity. And also, from my perspective, the Senate does not love gays, they love equality. This is a good thing for ALL people in the United States.

Ā @_CetarialĀ ā Is he? Trump litigates every lawsuit, meaning if a vendor sues him for non-payment, he buries them in lawsuits. Even a nuisance lawsuit can easily cost $10.000 before you even get to the trial phase. No man is above the law, and I for one am just sick of him. The incident Iām was thinking of was Trumps business ordered business cards, the order for the entire firm was under $3,000 which he never paid. They sued trump, and Trump caused the printing company to go out of business in the worst way possible. They buried him in legal counter lawsuits, the business suffered a break in, their client list was taken, all of their clients got better offers from other printers. When he filed for bankruptcy, Trump through multiple other businesses placed liens on his HOME seeking restitution for their legal fees. I never found out what finally happens, but that someone would bring a guy, his company, his employees to lose their livelihood all because they dared ask Trump to payā¦ š”

Ā @TheHopetownĀ ā Doubtful, but since we are talking puppetsā¦ have you researched Trumps ties to Russia and China? I would suggest you open your mind, Trump was a master at deception, manipulation, and honesty impaired. If he called China Chine-A, and talked them down, it was a distraction. Keep in mind that just one of the Trump contracts that they revealed was signed on his state visit to China was $6 million. And yes, Ivanka signed it, not himā¦ nicely done. Oh and then research the something like SIX to EIGHT BILLION dollars worth of contracts signed by the Trump Corporation (Ivanka) while in Russia. So before you listen to rumors (possible lies) about Biden, look at the facts on Trump. And yes, I know the supposed (confidently lost) Hunter emails that surfaced from a laptop supposedly left at a Republican laptop repair shop two months before the election. IF, note the IF they were genuine, look bad. However that FOX lost āthe only copy that existed, a paper copy, never scanned, not copiedā in the US Mailā¦ I find the entire email issue incredible.

Someday, our nation will come to the realization that those commie-Californians, those liberal lefts, those baby killing Democrats, are really their friends, neighbors, church members, and that no one wants to kill babies. To think that democrats arenāt Christian, that they are evil, etc., is proof you arenāt human and have given in to hate. Someday we will learn to respect one another, we must, because if the current Trump trend continues... the options are not good.

Cory S ā itās much worse than you think! Every time Trump speaks, they gobble it up! Trump said it was a democratic hoax, 9 of my relatives and 11 from our church booked a European vacation, when they got to Paris they were ordered to hotel restriction, but hey, itās a hoax, they snuck out anyway. On return they were rerouted to the west coast to be quarantined again for two weeks. They blame the evil baby killing democrat perverts for ruining their vacation. Trump said it was over by Easter, they again made plans to get together at a family reunion to celebrate our great president and Easter. Trump changed to April 30, ditto, plans are being made. Try and point out a president canāt order a virus to die, they laugh, tell me I need to re-examine my faith. Trump is doing gods work saving America, America is blessed, Christians will not be affected by pestilence as psalms says, and the evil democrats who hate America will be defeated. Itās worse than you can imagine.

Thomas Paine ā Damn, talk about a triggered snowflake. Megan Rapinoe bright, articulate, intelligent and beautiful! So because you want to defend Trump and are unable to formulate a coherent thought or response, you attack her personally. "Pink haired boy has done so much for our country?" DAMN RIGHT SHE HAS! She has inspired a generation of women to stand up for what you believe, that itās ok to be different, that if you put forth the effort anyone can succeed. And PINK IS FOR BREAST CANCER you bigot. Megan is enjoying her 15 minutes of fame, and instead of applauding, you seek to belittle her and tear her down. She just helped America win its FOURTH World Womenās Soccer Cup, her SECOND. She ROCKS and YOU just personified everything wrong with trump supporters. Please take a walk, get some air, read your Bible, anything to help yourself and not be so bitter.

Ā @fatman5377Ā ā JD powers I believe focuses just on new cars, Consumer Reports focuses on incidences of repairs, dealership and owner reports. Isnāt the MK a smaller passenger car? I wasnāt talking about those, I just remember the stats on Ford/Lincoln Expedition/Navigator vehicles. And 30% is the same present age regardless of 10,000 or 250,000 sold. š¤ So sell a little, sell a lot, the percentages still give an accurate indication of failure rates. And why? Distorted reality. Like I said Ford lovers swear by their cars, assume a shop visit every few months is normal. I did, until I bought a Mitsubishi Montero that passed 200k miles over 17 years with nothing but oil, brakes, wipers and tires replaced. What is normal to one person, is not normal to the next.

Ā @mimimurphy3244Ā ā Maybe your comment was unclear. The Republican Party is absolutely a Nazi, white nationalist, racist, bigoted and homophobic party ā That has been proven a million times over. The fact that these commenters think their fellow Americans are undeserving or the same rights they enjoy, also proves the point. I am a religious person, and I also donāt understand LGBT people. But I donāt have to, not my thing. But these Republican dolts want to treat them as sub-Americans, not as their fellow Americans, not as equals, not as men and women or even as humans. When the Bible says love thy brother, love your neighbor, it didnāt list a bunch of exceptions. They ARE our fellow man, our brothers, and how we treat them is extremely important.

michael walker ā Both sides should be ashamed? How so? Republicans are criminal, liars, and accuse Democrats of being baby killers for their Pro-Life position. Democrats call them out on their crimes, call their lies, LIES, and are constantly being fought by the Republican Party? Just look at the difference between the Republican's anti-abortion stance when compared to the democrats Pro-Life stance... The Pro Life plan SAVES LIVES NOW, but republicans want ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, they fight it every step. Why? Because to Republicans saving lives of unborn children DO NOT MATTER! They want the money from the evangelical religious right NOT the solution! A solution would decrease the money pouring in, so the Republicans FIGHT the Democrat plan to save children now, today, preferring them to be killed so they can continue their revenue stream from religious bigots! This is deception of the masses at an epic level! How can you say Democrats are guilty as well, when all they are doing is holding the godless raping, thieving, abortion loving republicans who proudly commit adultery and take pride in marrying prostitutes ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS?!?! Wake up Michael! These are SERIOUS issues! Republicans are dragging this entire country down into hell and I for one will not go quietly!

Lavenderrose73 devious means? LOL! Itās not illegal to play, try to win, or try to figure out the lottery. Even I have an excel spreadsheet that yielded me a few small wins. The only thing the guy did that got him arrested was that he WORKED for the lottery commission. People who work for them cannot win it. Itās the law! Not to mention the guy used brains to predict winning numbers, he did not āfixā the system. You know donāt you that there are lottery "companies" with Investorās, that wait until the jackpot reaches a high enough amount, then play ALL numbers, right? If the odds are 1 in 32 million (whatever) and the prize gets up to an after tax win greater than 32 million, say over 60 million, these companies send their staff out with pre-printed tickets to collectively place orders for ALL 32, 264,332 possible combinations. Itās a weird world. š

New sub, so apologies if you have tested thisā¦ you kind of covered this on your second test. My big issue with multitools is the plier function, Iāve had several (more than a few, 6 or 7) collapse on use. I mean trying to get a bolt or whatever to turn, clamp, or cutting a large wire, and the handle snaps, collapsing and sometimes pinching your skin. I am not talking about stressing them to point of failure, just a test of a strong hand squeeze. Iām 6ā, and a former gymnast so thereās a chance my grip might (as in who knows) be stronger than average. Iām not talking a two handed squeeze, just one hand, and a very strong squeeze that would be applied while trying to either cut, clamp or remove a stuck bolt.

Ā @ultraflemĀ ā Please donāt talk down to me. But when I see video of Trump speaking, confirmation from multiple sources, I assume there is some weight to the story. Does all media seem to be biased? Absolutely. But I lost faith after Trump tried to spin the Mueller Report, which concluded by saying āWe have found ample evidence of Trump working with a foreign nation to manipulate an election, collusion and obstruction. However we are unable to prosecute a sitting president,ā and Trump announced that āthey had found nothing, found him innocent, that he was completely exonerated.ā Everyone in my church cheered, yeah! Those evil DemonRats! And I found myself asking these people but the news published the transcripts, they played portions of the conversation, it was him, he said and did that. They just laughed, believing Trumps lies.

Chad Peterson ā I meant to add that using his name as a calling card is minor. The 30,000 people (total, over the last decade) who have sued him for his business practices and failed projects are what concern me. Whenever an investor loses money, be it trump university, trump condos, villas, whatever trump project they canāt sue HIM. His defense is always that Trump whatever, towers, etc., are just a brand, that someone licensed his name for the project, it wasnāt his project, he had nothing to do with it beyond licensing.

Ebaie Winna ā No, just no to everything you said. I donāt follow Warren other than her occasional news soundbites that come around. But I do respect her because she, like you, is a strong minded, open minded, well spoken woman. Her percentage of Native American DNA is indeed irrelevant because she never ever said anything other than her family had a rumored long time connection to the Native American people, as told to her by her family members. Trump and his people (read you) took offense at this and called her a liar. So she had a DNA test done, and while clearly an insignificant amount... it is there! Which means that SHE DID NOT LIE as Trump asserted. Thatās it, donāt read anymore into this than that. What scares me is that you and Trump's Republican brethren ignore Trumps issues, his constant lies that are DOCUMENTED beyond question or doubt, his business practices that have resulted in thousands of lawsuits over the last decade, his 73 sexual harassment lawsuits (affairs) over the same decade (documented by his own legal firms reports), and the FACT that his wife's web pages for her model-escort pages "for clients of means only" are still online for you to view. Seriously, not joking. Some may argue that they are false news, but the dates go way back before Trump even met her, and there are videos of her modeling including girl on girl action. Yeah, yeah, I know videos "can" be faked too, but it takes a special effects house, dozens of people, and some major computing power and know how to fake a believable video. Not to mention the cost, we are talking movie budget millions. And please understand that I also voted for Trump, the Republican Party's stance on abortion is why. However the more I learn about the man that markets himself as Trump, the more disillusioned I have become. I, we, thought we were electing a man with Christian values, but instead we elected a lying sack of shit, literally THE worst person ever to the White House. The difference between you and I is simple, I have an open mind and you are blinded by your faith. You support Trump and the Republican Party because they have aligned themselves with the religious right.
Edit: Thereās one more thing that irks me about your comment. You are holding her accountable for what her family told her, that she assumed to be true. My parents told me that we were from Norwegian bloodlines, and that our great something or other grandfather immigrated here for a better life, and worked to build the railroad across the nation. I was told that he died when a trestle timber was dropped and happened to catch him on the way down. I believed my father, and my grandmother when she told us that story when I was a young kid. Is it true? I have absolutely no proof whatsoever. Am I a liar for believing my family stories? No, and neither is Warren. You, like so many others are twisted and bent, literally hell bent on discrediting anyone and anything that isnāt Republican or fits your religious or political views. That you actually want to take an accomplished, incredible woman like Warren to task over this particular issue says WAY MORE ABOUT YOU than it does about Warren. You, yes YOU should be seriously ashamed! And no Iām not trolling or trying to be rude. If we were face to face I would put my hand on your shoulder and tell you the same thing in a compassionate tone of voice to your face. You are wrong, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Clayton Yates ā "Toyota's make boring cars, no one wants one?" If my age and experience counts for anything, reliability MATTERS! Iāve owned 4 Ford/Lincolnās, 2 Chevy's, 3 Chrysler/Dodge's, 1 Lexus (my wife will NOT let me drive, she says Iām too hard on vehicles), 1 Jeep, 1 Range Rover (POS) and 4 Mitsubishiās. There is one FACT you must know, EVERY American manufacturer engineers a 50k MTBF into their vehicles. After fifty thousand miles you will start replacing components every 3, to 6 months. Great if you have no schedules to keep, have a great income, can do the repairs yourself, can fly home to work and fly back to pay the repair bill and drive it home the following weekend. Donāt care about reliability, O.K., but have you ever broken down on the way to work, to the airport, have the A/C fail in the middle of nowhere in the summer in 107Ā° temps, had a water pump blow when going up a mountain incline, lost the breaks as you approach a busy intersection, had to replace r water pumps in r months until the shop mechanic tells you "Youāre an idiot" because everyone knows that Chevy water pumps suck, get a Japanese one from AutoZone. I could also tell you stories of people in Ford, Chevy or Dodge 4x4's that get stuck on trails because while it said 4x4 on the side, the differentials are open so the traction goes to the wheel w the least resistance. Get one wheel in mud, snow or ice and you have to wait for help. I could also tell you stories of getting idiots out of mud holes, they look at my rice burner and laugh, 'You aināt never gonna be able to tow my truck with THAT! I just smile, hook up the chain, and depending on their rudeness; less, I accelerate slow and steady. More rude, I accelerate heavy and spray mud all over them.

Look up the JD Powers new car reliability ratings, and Consumer Reports ratings for a longer term picture. Nissan and Infinity have NOT kept pace with other lines, and they have not improved their fuel performance or reliability. I buy a new vehicle every 2-4 years, and I firmly believe that quality matters. I bought a Range Rover, never ever again. A F250, ditto. GM Yukon, Ford Expedition, hell no. I also had an accident in rainy weather in a Nissan, the anti-lock brakes literally prevented me on dry pavement from stopping. I sailed through an intersection dodged several vehicles and ended up in an empty lot. No impacts, but the curb did a number on the front right wheel. I had a Nissan Murano that ran great for 140k miles, then the engine blocked when I started it on a cold morning. Quality matters.

Ā @evolutionistheflyingspaghe2702Ā ā And yet statistics and fact checkers disagree with you. I get it, I really do. All we have Ben told is that Demās are evil lying baby killing DemoncRats so many times that we believe it. But factually, while Bidenās not perfect, Trump was, is, so much worse. And yes, I am, or was up until Mid-Term of Trump, a Republican. Trump has single handedly destroyed our party. Integrity, honesty, values, honor, ALL gone. You cannot support a man, or the party that supports him that are without values. Especially if you are a person of faith. You cannot claim to be on the right side of anything, when you belong to a party that cannot tell the truth, lies, racism, thatās the new normal and it sickens me. Your, everyoneās support of a man, a party, with zero values whatsoever, that will do and say anything to accomplish their political goals... thatās wrong as hell and you know it. Donāt point fingers at anyone else until you are on the right side.

Ā BOBĀ ā Not what I said and you know it, go troll elsewhere. And we do know NOW, in hindsight that Bush also sold a big lie, also for political gain. The 911 Report clearly outlines how Bush KNEW that the 911 attack and attackers were planned by, financed by, trained by the military personnel from, and on the soil of Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. However we couldnāt publicly blame them because THEY (Pakistan and Saudi Arabia) were our allies, and Saudi Arabia is deeply invested in the USA. Starting a war with them, would have brought financial collapse. These are verifiable facts. And please tell me you are also aware that Trump committed us to an Afghanistan withdrawal, and tried to do it in 30 days, but backed off only because he was both busy pushing another big lie, election fraud (while committing election fraud). Military leaders have said a hundred times that the withdrawal should have taken many, many months, and it did, and that there was no clean way to extricate the USA from that conflict. Everyone knows that it was a combination of errors, costing lives, and it is much more complex than pointing a finger at Trump for agreeing to it, releasing 6,000 terrorists to let them prepare for the retaking of Afghanistan, or point fingers at Biden because Trump let it happen on his watch. So letās be clear, the situation was mucked up from day one, every president from Bush to Biden shares the blame, as do we, all of us, for not demanding honesty in our politicians. We attacked two countries with only vague ties to 911 for political points. This entire situation is wrong on so many levels, but you dolts canāt get past either Trump bad, or Biden bad.
Edit. I left out āplannedā

Ā @evolutionistheflyingspaghe2702Ā ā So one counties records were deleted. š± Yet, the voter ballots exist, and have been counted 3 or 4 times. The āauditā dint uncover any major irregularities other than 14,000 voters in one county (donāt remember which one) where multiple individuals cast two votes, all but a few for Trump. Why? Because one of Trumps election lies was to cast doubt, distrust on mail in voting, AND encourage āhis peopleā to vote twice, once by mail, and once in person. Iām in Texas, and our church even openly discussed this, many believing absolutely that it was justified to counter the Democratic threat, and that while illegal, Trump would Pardon those who did when he won. Serious question, do you think one counties deleting their computer records would have changed the states vote outcome on THE most watched, most litigated election in history? (Keep in mind all court cases lost save one)

Ā @blossomsnowĀ -- Actually, while I did vote for Obama, I also think he isn't perfect. And I didn't search for good or bad articles, that was literally the first one on the list. But later I did read several, and I do not see were Obama pardoned friends, or anyone that went to jail for following his orders.
I watched the house and senate impeachment hearings for one example, and read the complete albeit redacted Mueller Report, and read the FBI reports on their investigation of Trump. Trump or his campaign did indeed pay a Russian company to place ads on several platforms, and were behind the hacking of Hillary's servers. Trump did withhold aid to Ukraine dependent on their "announcing an investigation into the Biden's" (note not do one, 3 had already been done), and he did attempt to cover both events up. And you should too as at the start of the impeachment trial, the Republican party did say that the Presidents actions were not the issue, he did what he was accused of, the question before the senate was to decide if those actions were impeachable offenses. I agree with them that it was not an impeachable offence. However if ANY OTHER PERSON had worked with a foreign country to influence a presidential election, that would have been a prison sentence, perhaps death if they pushed the Treason angle.

Ushsh SHhs ā Motivation. Trump did it to cast doubt on a political rival during an election year, for personal gain. Obama was up front, didnāt lie, and had the nations interests at heart, not his own reelection in a few months. ADDITIONALLY, if you read the transcripts you can see trump KNEW it was a baseless accusation when he requested it. He didnāt request they investigate Biden and Bidenās son, because itās already been done! Trump asked only for the ANNOUNCEMENT! He asked that Ukraine president "make a public announcement that they (Ukraine) were investigating the Bidenās," and that funds would be held up pending the announcement. How do you not see the manipulation here? This wasnāt about crime, this is about trump being trump. "Shillary is a crook, lock her up," Pocahontas? All trump does is cast doubt, make innuendos, muddy the waters, anything, any lie, just to help or benefit him.

Craig F. Thompson ā Yes, very few have two days to travel anywhere unless price is their only concern, but it doesnāt take two days to go from DFW to ATL now so your not comparing apples to apples. But the High Speed Rail, HSR service that was under consideration estimated a 12-15 hour trip from LAX to NYC "If" HSR were possible on a nonstop train service. Plane travel isnāt cheap, rail is much more cost effective. The plan was to start HSR service between major cities, LAX-SFO, LAX-PHX, DFW-ATL, or whatever. The tracks from the primary cities would go to the main corridors for longer hauls. So while a flight from LAX to ATL would take over 4 hours, a train from LAX to ATL would take about 8 hours and would have a much lower cost per passenger. All I know is HSR can be more cost effective, the kicker is the expense for the tracks and routes ($/mile) are so high that it currently is not a cost effective option. All Iām saying, or thinking was that "IF" the HSR tracks were in place it would be nice to have that option. Let say Iām in Dallas and needed to be in ATL tomorrow morning. A flight would cost around $400. But would I fly if the train could get me there for $100? I could pack tonight, get up at 3 am to catch an early 6 am flight āļø, or I could pack and hop a train tonight, have dinner, sleep, wake up, shower, have breakfast and arrive at the same time... and save $300.

Ā @StyxNyx1Ā ā Do you mean my squatters rights joke? Are you familiar with squatters rights? Letās say that you and your neighbor share a property line on two identical 100 acre properties. However he puts up a fence, and you never notice that itās over the line. Years later you sell your land and the surveyor says you have 95 acres not one acre. Too late, the neighbor has 105 acres and gets your land as heās been using it for over five years. The AMERICAN INDIANS did indeed migrate over the frozen peninsula between Russia and what is now Alaska. The American Indians lived here long before America was rediscovered. Squatters rights is a law that says if you have been living on and using land for a certain time, and no one has objected, that land is yours, period. So even though native Americans may have also been immigrants, they were here, lived way past the squatters rights laws timeframes, so by that use and occupation, THEY are the owners. The prior comment pointed out they immigrated too. So my response was simple, they were here first, no one objected, so regardless of how they got here, this is American Indians Landā¦ I.e. squatters rights. Sorry you donāt see the humor of using current law as an example of American Indians being the true owners of America for a millennia to defeat the Republican argument that we are all immigrants, and equal owners by manifest destiny rights. I personally like that using our own laws to disprove our own assertions quite funny as it points out the weakness of the Republican argument. Sorry you donāt get that, perhaps you could ask a democrat to explain it to you?

Wowza people! Youāre forgetting a few things, Trumps arrogance is perceived as confidence, they will believe Trumps lies and propaganda. Look at Trumpās Coronavirus response, denied it, played it down, ignored medical advice, did nothing until late April. All of which allowed the virus to get a strong foothold in the USA. Other nations reacted, closed their borders as early as February, encouraged safety measures and kept their people alive and safer. The facts bear this out, prove it without question, yet when he speaks and says he fought off the virus and through his guidance the USA has the best virus response statistics in the world. AND PEOPLE BELIEVE HIM! Then we have Bidenās occasional hesitation and stutter, which he has always had, although he is confusing things more often. Meaning...
THIS DEBATE COULD GO EITHER WAY!

@internet person ā Cool username BTW! šš»šš¼šš½šš¾ššæšš¾šš½šš¼šš» I take it you havenāt read some of the articles on this subject. The issue isnāt placing high speed rail lines through remote areas Ike the Dakotaās, the issue is the COST of the changes needed. Our existing Rail system was designed around slow steam engine travel. Our existing rail lines could be used at lower speeds in cities, but once out of populated areas new tracks would be needed that are a level of precision (very level, very slight grades, very stable) that would require new tracks. Thereās the burn, old tracks would still be needed for freight. New tracks require land, labor, and other resources that are now VERY expensive. In the early railroad days this was relatively cheap, now... not so cheap.
The initial plans called for first stage corridors, east and west coast, with Spurs off to slower tracks near cities, this would allow a fast trip from say Tacoma/Seattle to LA or San Diego, but not much speed benefit say from SFO to LA. The second phase was an east to west coast high speed rail corridor, think overnight from NY to LA. Third phase was to be middle America city connections/stops. The big snag was cost, opposition from existing travel PACās, and public opposition. Think of it this way... Taxi companies feared loss of revenue and successfully lobbied lawmakers to block BART from serving SFO airport. The expected hurdles made the project an impossible one.

This is NOT the whole picture! I bought a condo to fix up and move into, it was never rented p, it was to be my home. A homeless drug addict prostitute thief broke in and changed the locks, so when the police showed up she could hold up the keys and say āNo!ā To the officer when he asked to enter. āYou canāt come into my house, you need a warrant to enter here!ā Then she looked at me and said āAnd you canāt get me out, you have to gave me a 3 day notice, then file eviction with the city, then I have 15 days to appeal, then I have 30 days to my second trial, then I have 15 days to exit.ā Then I asked for my tools, food, furniture, appliances, brand new portable air conditioner and other personal items... she replies... āYOUR TOOLS? Your air conditioner, your tools, your furniture? No, no no no... MY TOOLS, MY FOOD, MY FURNITURE, MY EVERYTHING!ā The police were powerless. When I finally got her out, I am out tens of thousands, she hocked sold or gave away everything AND damaged everything in the home too, mirrors, walls, floors, RUINED! So this IMHO is all crap! I say my one mistake was to call the police. I should have handled it in the dead of night.

Ā @rigovalentineĀ ā Read The Art of the Deal, itās all about fleecing people of their money, conning them. Trump worships money, he is a money changer. Trumpās favorite book is Mein Kampf by AdolphHitler, it is beside his bed. It is the playbook he used to win the election. He followed Hitlerās plans to the letter, identify a subgroup of the population as the reason for the populaces woes, financial issues, job issues, the nations economy issues. AdolphHitler established himself as the person with to help them, with the final solution, then he set about doing it. Trump sold Mexicans to the American people as the reason for their economic woes, for their employment woes, for their financial woes, for their issues of crime, he painted them as the cause, a small subgroup that could not defend themselves at a national level. Then he sold himself as the man with the plan, build the wall, I will make Mexico pay for it. And then he set about making his promises true, imprisoning Hispanics in detention centers across the nation, Separating parents from their children. Trump is almost the father of all lies being pretty much the worst liar to hold the office of president in history. His career as a ConMan (Again reference the art of the deal) is his modus operandi, which is why he conned the entire nation about the seriousness of COVID-19, he deliberately undersold the contagious nature and the mortality rates costing the lives of over 300,000 people, because it is in his nature to do so. In the duration of his presidency he has stepped into a church only one single time, right before the election for a photo op. He is as close to the human equivalent of The anti-Christ that weāve ever seen. Trump has conned the evangelical and religious right into believing that he is saved, that he represents God and that he alone can save the nation after Obama. You canāt argue this, it is what my pastor preaches on Sundays! He screams from the pulpit āif you consider yourself a Christian you will vote Republican or you are not a Christian!ā

Ā @BroadcastBuddyĀ ā Revisionist history is a wonderful thing, Deny anything that doesnāt fit with your agenda. If you studied history in class you can see the tactics of Trump and Hitler are identical, identify a marginalized subgroup as the reason for the countries woes, sell yourself as the man to help, fix the problem. Obama did build new facilities, but Trumpās āZERO TOLERANCEā policy changed everything. And no, no one is saying Trump killed over 300,000 people, Trumpās lies and nature simply made the situation much, much worse. And the initial CDC estimates were 300,000, not 2,000,000, you are quoting WHO worldwide projections. Please stop spreading lies and misinformation, alternate facts are NOT real facts, they are lies.

Ā @chucknorris277Ā ā Half true, the Delta variant is resistant, but if youāve been vaccinated you likely not know youāve caught it. And masks arenāt meant to protect you, the wearer. They are meant to prevent YOU, the wearer from infecting others. They stop the particulates we expel when we breathe and talk. As there is a 4 to 14 day incubation period where we donāt know we have it, and are spreading it to others. Please stop lying and spreading false information, as it costs lives. Masks lessen the chances of contagion, period. And instead of saying āindependent researchers are identifying it, NOT the CDC,ā as if those numbers canāt be trusted, why donāt you explain that the āindependent researchersā are PhD Doctors looking at samples from patients under a microscope, and there very smart people determine the Delta variant as THERE IS NO TEST FOR IT. Honesty and facts matter. Ever heard that youāre either part of the solution or part of the problem? You are part of the problem, causing more drama and deaths.

Jon Popelka ā I meant my comment to be humorous. Sadly this is not about politics anymore, itās a faith based issue and all common sense, logic, and civility have left us. My own brother becomes more like a rabid dog than a human being whenever I poke fun at Trump and his antics. I voted for him, yet I also love to watch the late night talk shows which take such joy at portraying trump as an ass, because in all honesty he is. I find it humorous, because any way you wish to view the situation, Trump is talk show gold. He is our president, he deserves our respect, yet constantly opens his mouth. The mere fact that no one has taken Trump aside and just schooled him as a friend to STFU and all this circus will stop, cracks me up to no end. And frankly, almost every comment here save yours makes me ill. Politics is manipulation, everyone knows this. The presidents antics, every word on both sides, is all a form or āpositioningā and the candidates are the products. When did we become so stupid as no not recognize that we are being manipulated, and used like pawns in a chess game?

Ā @nightrunner3701Ā ā who said the left (Democrats) wanted any of those things? Oh wait... Trump the lying conman spin master said them and you believed him. Letās be clear, no one, not Democrats or Republicans want what you assert.
But as a 2nd amendment supporter, I would like to ask you a serious multi-part question. Republicans fight EVERY gun law or restriction. Every effort to curb mass shooting, yāall fight. We know that between 80-90%, depending on the state, of guns used in shooting of more than one person come from two main sources; 1. Stolen from friends, neighbors or relatives where the person knows they are unsecured. Or 2. Purchased used from a yard sale, flea market, or other public venue. Republicans fight ALL laws that might help to track or close these avenues. Even a company offering free quick and dirty voluntary (assuming most people donāt want to sell to a violent criminal) was shut down as it might possibly lead to a gun database which Germany used to seize control of weapons (even though the USA is NOT Germany). A law requiring guns to be secured in some manner when not on your person, also defeated.
I ask because I like being a CHL holder, and want to keep my rights. Because if you havenāt noticed, with each mass shooting, public opinion shifts a little more. The āPublicā puts pressure on politicians, who adopt gun control into their platform in order to get elected, and itās happening more and more. 2012 no candidate was in favor of gun control laws, in 2016, several were, in 2020 ALL Democrats and some Republicans were in favor of some form of gun control. My point is by fighting EVERY law or change, by resisting every measure to address the issue, we are going to reach a political breaking point where our constitution (written in pencil) can be modified. I for one would like to PREVENT this, but if we, the Republican Party remain intractable, change WILL eventually happen, it will be severe, and WE will have caused it by resisting any and all changes.
And lastly, what makes you think Iām a Democrat? When I said āTodayās Republican Party,ā I meant the party we have become under Trump, literally demanding the end of democracy in the USA so Trump could remain President.

John Martinuk ā Idiot? You seem to have a hero complex, believing that YOU are the savior of the entire US. My point was simple, political tensions are growing... today a show of force, tomorrow an act of force. And I have not read the constitution. I have studied it. I am a strong second amendment supporter, and yet I firmly believe that people like you will be the reason for its demise. You and your ilk are unyielding and irresponsible. What you donāt seem to comprehend is that our constitution is written in pencil, it can and has been modified many times. You refuse to focus on the real issues, residents vote, not ācitizens,ā gun violence affects voters, votes elect candidates, so candidates that want to win incorporate constituents wants into their platforms. 4 or 8 years ago gun law changes were laughed at, now it was in EVERY democratic candidates position statements. Yet you refuse to see a trend, you still fight every attempt to curb gun violence, an unbalanced individual can go out and buy guns at any private venue (garage, yard, flea market sales) and do so untracked. Why? Because we fight every effort to red flag these actions! If someone buys 5 guns and a thousand rounds in a short time frame, whatās wrong with a police officer visiting them and asking why, asking their employer, looking at stress inducing events, and if they are concerned asking a mental health professionals assessment? We KNOW where 90% of guns used in mass shootings are sourced from; thefts from friends, neighbors, and relatives where they know unsecured weapons are stored, and private sakes where you can buy a drill as easy as a gun. But efforts to have a national firearms database are fought citing Germanyās history, while every American knows the difference between Germany and the USA. History FORGOTTEN is bound to be repeated, steps can be taken to never repeat them. Efforts for voluntary citizens using apps to track sales of firearms is also fought, even though it could flag potential issues with buyers. One app was simple, scan or enter the guns serial number, buyers license, wait 30 seconds for a green light, and sale logged. So if someone underage, a mental health history or a convict buys a bunch of weapons it would possibly be caught and possibly stopped. Doesnāt mean anything more than a safety check. Doesnāt hinder rights to gun ownership, just saves lives.
What you donāt seem to understand is that public sentiment is changing, as mentioned about the dem presidential hopefuls. After 2020 will it be on the Republicans position list? Because if you know history the only constant is change. Keep fighting all gun law changes, more mass shootings, more people voicing their concern about their family safety to their elected officials, more elected officials siding w gun control... then one day there will be a seismic shift. The second amendment could be modified or deleted. OHH MUH GAWD! You say? Never going to happen? Yeah... best wake up. Women can vote, blacks can too, and alcohol can be bought and sold again. All were constitutional changes due to public outcry. Hello?

He wasnāt arrested, he was questioned and refused to answer questions. Humor me, youāre out of town, a neighbor sees a strange man at your house and calls 911. When the police show up the man immediately says I donāt live here, I live across the street. [Waitā¦] You return and find out youāve been robbed, that the police showed up, caught the guy, but have no clue who he was. They asked for his ID and he refused, and they let him go. How would you feel then? If the police have a reasonable suspicion of a crime (911 call), they have the right to ask for ID, or detain the man to determine if his story is correct, determine if a crime is being committed. ALL THEY DID WAS VERIFY WHO HE WAS.

Martin Balber ā So the first WHYY PBS account shows 3 incidents of voter fraud for 3 candidates over 3 years, with a total of 113 votes āstuffedā over the 3 year period. None of these were mail in votes, but were judged significant because of the small number of people voting in those precincts. So, points for finding that and showing us you donāt know the difference between in person voting or mail in voting. Please tell me that you realize Trumps intent in this issue is less votes helps his chances of re-election. Trump has also placed one of his loyal donors over the United States Post Office, immediately after being told that due to the Coronavirus, mail in voting would be needed in November. While regularly that wouldnāt raise questions, but knowing Trumps total lack of honesty and his gift at deception and misdirection... it looks horrible.
Second link is the same issue.
Third link, same issue.
Fourth link, same issue.
So what youāre actually saying is that you blindly support Trumps comment that there is āmassive mail in voter fraudā without ANY supporting facts or evidence, even though his statement is completely false. Trump lied, again. Other news agencies have reported that in audits the actual number of unverifiable mail in ballots (*) averages .00007% of votes cast. I might be wrong on the percent, I forget of there were 4 or 5 zeros so I went with 4, the higher percentage. Please donāt be a dolt, please work to make America great again by holding politicians accountable for their words and actions. I know that as a Republican you donāt care about honesty, integrity or character, and are completely without faith, but these things MATTER. Honesty, integrity and personal character MATTER.
(*) Unverifiable means that they were unable to contact the voter, they may have moved, died, or not available (vacation, traveling, nursing home or hospital), so the actual percentage of mail in voter fraud may be much, much lower that .00007%

Angelo Morte ā A simplistic response to a complex issue. Hereās what I see as facts, every sequential mass shooting changes more peopleās opinions against guns exponentially. Public opinion IS changing. Every single logical effort to help stop or lessen this trend is fought tooth and nail by the Republican Party and the NRA. We know where 90% of the guns used in mass shootings come from, but they fight every effort to close this avenue. Even in this chat thread we have simpletons brag that they dare anyone to steal their guns, all of which are not safely stored. Itās like they believe they are invulnerable and never sleep, work, or leave the house.
If we donāt decide what steps we will accept, and endorse them instead of fighting them, continuing events will shift public opinion more and more, and just like england, Australia etc., we will lose our second amendment right because we failed to acquiesce one iota. If you want the second amendment to stand, we need to be a willow, able to bend and change, if we continue to resist, we will snap.

Bill P ā Democratās are the Hate Party? What the heck? Thatās as backasswards as anything could be. Shillery? Pocahontas, etc., all trumps names for his opponents. Trump and Pence have ushered in an atmosphere of hate to INTENTIONALLY bring out the hate in their far-right-religious supporters. You claim to be āthe party of faithā yet you possess NO Christian attributes whatsoever! Your party literally supports the most misogynistic, corrupt, adulterous, thieving, unprofessional presidency ever in the history of our United States, and you call yourself Christians! Your President has over 3000 lawsuits for his illegal business practices and 73 affairs in the last decade based on information from his own legal team. Trumps wifeās āescortā web pages are still online in Russia clearly stating ācompanionship for clients of means onlyā and you have a problem with Mayor Pete? If all sin is equal, and all sin can be forgiven by God, what possible issues could you possibly have choosing Mayor Pete over Trump? Bill, Sir, you should be ashamed.

Ā @roderickvincent3840Ā ā I said in the course of their jobs. Again, 1950ās case, undercover cop was asked if he was a cop, he answered no, then afterwards made the arrest. It went to the Supreme Court, Officer won, guilty verdict stood, and ever since then officers can lie in their jobs. This does not carry over to their reports, court testimony, etc., but it does, this has been proven.

rik999 ā If I can? LOL! I think you failed to comprehend my point entirely. Suzuki makes certain parts on their motorcycles to break, not bend. This is INTENTIONAL, it is planned into the design to produce downline income for them and their dealers. No other manufacturer does this, they make parts to BEND, not BREAK. I have broken parts off my Suzuki by accidentally bumping them with my leg, by brushing against a bush, at $50-100 per part, it gets old very fast. Yes, you are right, if you "wreck" a bike of course itās going to break. Iām talking about simple accidents, drop it at low speed, if it accidentally falls on its side, if you bump it with your leg, THEY BREAK. I get the love of Suzuki Mechanicalās, they make a mean machine. But, and I canāt say this loud enough... IF YOU HAD EVER ACTUALLY OWNED A SUZUKI MOTORCYCLE YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT I SPEAK IS TRUE. That you seem to defend Suzuki on this issue just shows you to be a dolt and a troll.

Flashing your brights momentarily is NOT a crime, itās done by everyone. While I do believe cops deserve the benefit if the doubt, at the very LEAST the officer should have a reprimand filed for lying to the driver and ALLOWING himself and the situation to escalate. Yes, if the damage to the officers face was caused by the kid, I can see why they ruled in the officers favor. But officers deal with the worst 10%, 90% of the time, it skews their perspective. Iāve seen officers lie on the stand and feel fully justified for doing so. There should be dash cam footage to collaborate this event, If there was none, something is fishy. I would not put it past an officer to bloody their own face to support their case after a shooting such as this occurred. Iām not saying thatās what happened, just that itās not beyond possibility, the officer was caught on camera lying to the kid, and while getting the benefit of the doubt, their integrity DEPENDS on their honesty.

Ā @megaxenu753Ā ā But radio waves pass through you, unless you are VERY CLOSE to the source. Have cancer rates gone up with radio and TV broadcasts? And the difference between 3G, 4G, and 5G is the technology, NOT the radio frequencies. 5G is all about increasing the data throughput on data channels, and increasing the number of conversations on a given channel group. Saying 5G is bad makes zero sense. Itās like saying your new radio is causing you to be sick, when the radio, frequencies, the signals, the signal strength, etc., all remain the same.
2

Ā @megaxenu753Ā ā Sorry, not what I said. You are operating on a false assumption. They DO have warnings, gates and locks on every cell tower, they must be turned off to approach or work on. The radios, the frequencies, and the strengths ARE THE SAME FOR 5G AS 4G OR 3G. The ONLY difference is the technology, voice compression, data compression and how they handle data and voice traffic. Letās do a little history lesson, originally TDMA, and analog technology based on one voice channel or one data channel per conversation or connection. (T1ās, 24x 64kbs ea., 1.544 Mbps) Then came CDMA, which gave data or 3G, more channels that could be used simultaneously for a single data connection, meaning higher throughput better data service. 4G, added the ability for multiple people multiple phones multiple computers whatever to share multiple channels/radios like a Wi-Fi network would to serve more people and give a higher throughput to that group of people on that particular channel set. 5G what is the necessary because voice channels under initial CDMA, 3G or 4G Still had little compression and were limited to three voice conversations per channel. If I do changes that by switching channels or treating voice traffic like data traffic allowing it to share that same cells channels, all of them, with the data, resulting in better use of the available band with which gives you more voice conversation and data through court and data connections on one cell site. You are acting like 5G is some new radio frequency that is more dangerous than anything before it. It is not. Donāt be adult and stop listening to whatever fake false weird news youāre listening to. The radios are roughly the same the signal strengths are roughly the same, they have to be to avoid interference with other south sites in the surrounding areas. Sounds like transmissions from your phone are literally one Tenth the signal strength of the old box/brick phones that TDMA started using Wayback around 1983 or fourā¦ I forget. If you want to wine or raise the flag of alarm about cell phone radio strengths holding it up to your head might be a good argument to use a headset, headphones, earbudsā¦ That would be a valid argument. But saying the problem is 5G is literally saying that your Dunlop tires are going to harm you because they are new rubber. It is insanity.
edit. One other notable change which has absolutely nothing to do with your question but is one of the reasons why we have higher capacity now than we did back in the early sailor days. Initially we use the American standard T ones, 24 channels each and around 2002 or shortly afterwards we switched to the European standard of 36 channels per T1, switching out all of our interface equipment and cards and ports and lines and equipment to adapt to that change as it would give us an aggregate growth of total conversations and data that we could carry on any given cell site. These are the facts. 5G is just a newer technology that gives cell phone companies an ability to meet increasing demand, on the existing channels allocated by the government. 5G is not a different type of signal or radio wave or anything else, is no different than upgrading your home router to the next generation. Same signal, better hardware and better software for it.

C F ā Understand... but that is my point, two bullets, maybe three, one in almost perfect shape, normal round, passed through the upper back, exited his throat, through the back seat, through the front passenger's side, arm and leg and imbedded into the dash. The head shot had to be a hollow point. To me, two rounds, different types, two possible weapons.
2
-
Thomas Atkinson ā Well they did say Kennedy would have survived the first shot, and that it entered the upper back, exited his throat, passed through the seat, front seat passenger and was found in the dash. The second shot and possible third head shots... those were final. Bottom line, someone wanted him dead, very, very definitely dead. To me... a non-expert... we will never know. But all the missing reports, evidence, secrecy, that procedures were ignored or countermanded... DAMN! That all screams cover-up. And that there is credible evidence of two shooters, two bullets, one from the front, other from the rear... at approximately the same time... that says serious professional coordination.

Jan PhD ā Everything I said was factual, and had you had an open mind and checked you would know. So let me be clear, I donāt believe a word you lying, two faced thieving adulterous murderous hateful Republicanās say because you are just like your leader. By the way, research Trumps history and you will find in the decade prior to his presidency 73 affairs, 22 rape accusations, over 30,000 people defrauded through his projects, 5 abortions paid for and over 4 million spent trying to scrub his model-escorts web pages advertising her services to āclients of means onlyā from the web. You are a closed minded bigot with ZERO integrity, honor or character, just like the man you worship as President. You are known by the company you keep, as my father used to say āIf you play with dung your going to get some on you.ā You absolutely cannot take the high road saying lies like Republicans are all about children when you have been brainwashed and are completely clueless as to the Republican Partyās motivations. It has EVERYTHING to do with money, and nothing to do with YOUR goals other than to hook you in. Read the meeting minutes from Republican planning sessions when issues were added to their position list. Phrases like āadding that [anti-gay rights] to our agenda will further polarize our members and increase party loyalty.ā No one in the meeting said it was the right thing to do religiously, it was ALL about spin, which Trump has epically mastered. You think the Republican Party is godly because YOU WANT THEM TO BE. Yet you abandon EVERY SINGLE CHRISTIAN PRINCIPAL IN PURSUIT OF YOUR FAITH! What does that say about YOU? For goodness sake, people like YOU are the worst Christians in the world, yāall have ruined the Republican Party by your total loss of faith and supporting a party and candidate who opposes everything great about America!

IMHO all yāall are missing the point. Ever since the Republican Party sided with the religious right, they have become the righteous party, and democrats the unholy unrighteous non-Christian Party. The REASON that Trump and his cohorts actions are ignored and accepted is because the ends justify the means, itās a faith based issue. Whatever the president and his team do... itās godly, itās Christ based, their sins are forgiven... period. Why do you think Kavenaugh's SCOTUS appointment was a done deal before it even started? Nothing mattered, his appointment was ordained, like Trumps, by God to correct the nations path. Nothing matters because the cause is just! Do NOT apply logic to a faith based issue or try to convince Trumps supporters of ANYTHING contrary to what they know. The moment you say anything negative YOU become an advocate of Satan in their eyes. You donāt matter, your opinion doesnāt matter, because YOU are not of Christ. You canāt understand how right they are because you are not a Christian. Hello?

the roseninator ā DUDE! It is not a democratic or republican issue. As a responsible gun owner, I KNOW change is needed. Anyone can buy guns and ammo from a private citizen, no forms, no IDās needed and ZERO responsibility for the original owner. If we as a nation do NOT take actions to control gun violence, public opinion WILL eventually shift enough so that the USA, like many nations, ban guns in their totality. If YOU or ANYONE think that change is not needed, every time you argue or dilute the issue with politics YOU contribute to the problem. Just to be clear, yes, that makes YOU partly responsible for the next childās life taken. You donāt just need to wake up, you need to go get your wife and tell her to slap the crap out of you. Because SOMEONE needs to get in your face and ring your bell. These kids literally just watched their friends and classmates get killed right in front of them. And your response is to be dismissive and attempt to muddy the waters with divisive comments.

Geffo Me ā Thank you. The second amendment was written under the concept that an armed populace could help protect the nation from invasion, and keep the government in check. Up until the 1940ās that idea had merit, after the nuclear age it was rendered pointless. Now, today, with our military capabilities the concept of an armed populace protecting the nation is ludicrous, their homes maybe. Assault rifles and automatic weapons in the hands of the average Joe is downright scary. In this day of computerized everything, that we canāt flag and stop multiple gun or ammo purchases in a given time frame is inexcusable. That the Florida shooter had multiple red flags, police incidents, behavioral issues, etc., and not one single law enforcement agency had the guy come up on their radar is also sad. Maybe if everyone who winced when they heard about the latest shooting started sending a letter a day, an email a day, or a phone call a day to anyone in government and continued pushing buttons it might cause less talking and more action. Anyway, enough said. Peace to all.

Ā @cameronmurray3039Ā ā My experience was with a 2004 Range Rover. In under 3 years it has one transmission repair, 2 replacements, 2 alternators, one water pump, one engine mount, and required 4 tows, along with a host of minor electrical issues, power seats, power window motors, wiring problems, etc. I sold it at 47k miles and never looked back. A vehicle is worthless if it isnāt dependable, and it got to the point that I wouldnāt trust it to go to the store.
Iām with you, loved it, rode nice, looked beautiful, amazing off-roadā¦ but every 15k miles it needed a $7500 transmission. The only good thing was the engine, it did run. But every supporting component was problematic.

Roberto Blake ā Excellently written! It might be worth mentioning that The ālawsuitā not the original complaint, dealt with; 1. Customer placed an order for a wedding cake. 2. Business accepted the order. 3. Customer paid, and the business accepted the customers deposit. 4. A month and two weeks passed. 5. On the day of delivery, the cake company said "Oh NO! Not for lesbians." The media hyped the equal rights issue, the court case was won on the contractural issue, then the SCOTUS ruled based on the āReligious Rightsā issue. This case was NEVER about forcing ANY business, Church or organization to take business from ANY group. Any business anywhere in the USA can refuse customers for any reason. No shirt, no service. No one EVER can force a business to serve you, save emergency medical care. No Church will ever "HAVE TO" MARRY AN LGBT š³ļøāš couple. A Catholic Church doesnāt āhave toā marry a Presbyterian couple of ANY sex or orientation, churches decline weddings every week because the people getting married are not members of their church. There are churches and businesses everywhere who WANT LGBT business. All the news on this issue was just religious hoopla. Donāt shoot me, I am a person of faith also, Iām just stating facts. š

Ā @brandonjade2146Ā ā You disagree with me politically? Are ya sure? š¤£ You might be making a false assumption. My brother calls me a RINO because I see Trump differently that he does, because I wonāt put party over country, because I believe honor, service, integrity, character and honesty matter. He believes that Trump was appointed by God, is Godās emissary, literally a Saint or elevated to Jesusās level, I believe Trump to be a seriously flawed man, and a cancer in America. I voted for Trump in 2016, against him in 2020. As a Christian I strongly believe that we should be ministering to, sharing Christ with our LGBT brothers and sisters, not hating them as we are commanded to not throw the first stone, to love thy brother. And franklyā¦ that the Republican Party has strayed so far tight that they have abandoned every value and principle they once held mere years ago, Trump has enabled the hate and bigotry in us to be openly endorsed, so extreme that they, the Republican Party are no longer the Christian party. At the moment I am so disillusioned, so disgusted by what the GOP has become, I may never vote Republican again.

Ā @FreeMan..-._.-._._.Ā ā No. I am aware that there were only a half dozen +/- previous issues, but how do you not see the risk to Hispanic Americans? Youāre riding your bike, walking or running and a cop stops you and you donāt have your ID on you. I donāt have to show ID because I have rights as a citizen. The police can ask and I can if I wish tell them who I am. But if youāre Hispanic they can just say he looked like an illegal alien, arrest you, hold you indefinitely, deport you, and you can do nothing but try and get back onto the USA without any documentation. Then letās look at Abbott, his first impulse in every touchy situation in the past has been to lie, deny, and play it down. Abbott was caught red handed picking illegals up at the boarder, bypassing INS and Border Security/Patrol and shipping them to other states. In other words he CREATED the problem and spent taxpayer money to exacerbate and aggravate the situation. You canāt say this wonāt happen because it already has! THIS particular law is rife for abuse.

Ā @duMaurier15Ā ā Rudy has money, but itās shielded, like speaker Mike Johnson. Family trusts, family corporations, all which are designed shield people from lawsuits and taxes. The reason Johnson has no checking account, no savings, no homes, etc. is because āHeā owns nothing, his car, house, everything is rented from the family trusts and corporations. Itās not necessarily shady, itās just smart. š” I did some work for a seemingly wealthy man, who accidentally crashed his SUV into a house. No one was hurt but the house was severely damaged, I saw it and it was bad. But my client shrugged it off saying ādoesnāt matter, their house and my car insurance will pay for it.ā I asked ācar insurance usually caps at about $50k property damage, they will sue you.ā He laughed, āSo? I own nothing, I rent my house, lease my car, I have zero assets for them to take. It doesnāt matter what they do.ā

M LL ā Not sure you understand Trumpās base... My relatives, church members and work Trumpets all believe Trump was appointed by God to save the nation. āSave the nationā means from the democrat decline into hell. From Clintonās BJ in the White House, to anti-abortion, to anti-gay-LGBT-Rightās, to anti Marriage equality, to Obama possibly being a Muslim, that is what they mean. This is a FAITH BASED ISSUE for them. Thatās why nothing trump does matters, because he was placed in office by God, and everything he does is either forgiven, blessed, sanctified or justified by God. To think that this is about anything other than a faith motive is naive.

Ā @lockbert99Ā ā That has/is true, except with Ukraine. Because Trump sided with Russia, thatās why they voted against aid to Ukraine what nowā¦ three times? Might be fourā¦ I forget. Yes, it passed. But Republicans are just fine with every man woman and child being eliminated so Putin can re-integrate Ukraine into communist Russia. That is why Lindsey Graham said that, because we are funding the war, they think we should stop, and he was making a point, if we stopped, the war would end. His point was that democrats are prolonging the inevitable, and we need to stop. Me, Iām a simple guy. Ukraine is our ally, a free nation, and when one free nation falls, ALL free nations are just one step closer to not being free. Thatās why Republicans repeatedly bring up that āBiden is steering the USA towards nuclear war.ā Because Republicans believe that we should not in any way be helping Ukraine, even though Putin is full-tilt-Bozo for threading the use of Nukes, Republicans are eager to debase Biden in any possible way, one way being supporting Russia in this conflict and pushing fear. I know one thing, Putin is a bully, Trump is a bully, if you donāt stand up to bullies they will just keep pushing. Want to know what will happen if we donāt stand up to Putin? EUROPE falls one country at a time to Russia, just like it did to Germany in the 1940ās. After Ukraine, Finland is next.

Ā @wedgewizard5429Ā ā Iāve always thought the opposite, religion uses them. š¤£ People donāt realize that politics like religion are businesses, but reversed, we are the product. Back in 2016 when Trump was just a candidate, our pastor tried a new tack and started demonizing immigrants, demonizing anything and anyone that was mentioned in the Bible like LGBT people. What amazed me was that out Sunday, Wednesday services, drastically increased, as did the weekly reports of the prior week/months church tithing. It took me a moment to realize he shifted tack to promote hate, increasing church membership, and therefore raising more money.

People: The ālawsuitā not the original complaint, dealt with; 1. Customer placed an order for a wedding cake. 2. Business accepted the order. 3. Customer paid, and the business accepted the customers deposit. 4. A month and two weeks passed. 5. On the day of delivery, the cake company said "Oh NO! Not for lesbians." The media hyped the equal rights issue, the court case was won on the contractural issue, then the SCOTUS ruled based on the āReligious Rightsā issue. This case was NEVER about forcing ANY business, Church or organization to take business from ANY group.
But please note, "Religious Rights" were NEVER the issue. Any business anywhere in the USA can refuse customers for any reason. No shirt, no service. No one EVER can force a business to serve you, save emergency medical care. No Church will ever "HAVE TO" MARRY AN LGBT š³ļøāš couple. Ever since day One a Catholic Church would never āhave toā marry a Presbyterian couple of ANY sex or orientation, churches decline weddings every week because the people getting married are not members of their church. There are churches and businesses everywhere who WANT LGBT business. All the news on this issue was just religious hoopla. Donāt shoot me, I am a person of faith also, Iām just stating facts.
Everyone screaming this or that, right wrong, PLEASE WAKE UP! This was all a non-issue from the very beginning. š

Jake Roberts ā Or should I call you Florida Man? I think you missed the humor part of my statement, LOL! I simply meant that hurricanes are as bad or worse snow. But I didnāt realize that you were a climate change denier, which being Florida Man makes perfect sense. You remind me of my relatives, who believe that if trump said climate change is fake, it is fake. As a semi-quasi educated person the statistics and visual photographic proof is indisputable, the earth is warming, the polar ice and glaciers are indeed receding, period. The questions are IF the change is man made or natural, and IF the water will actually rise as much as they project it will. The not so humorous part is that if we do nothing, we face major change completely unprepared, and if it is man made, we lose the chance to reduce mans impact. So react, make changes and we might live, deny climate change and we and our kids future is at risk.

Ā @RandomRangerRamblesĀ ā Thank you, I will wear that badge you intended as an insult as a badge of honor. Honesty, integrity, service, honor, love and compassion for others all matter. I know you Republicans disagree, hate is your new mantra, every evil YOU do is blessed, sanctified and Justified by God, but you are in for a surprise when you meet God and try to justify your crimes, lies, corruption and infidelities by saying āBut I was a Republican! We were doing YOUR will!ā

1. Around six months ago the Republican Party conducted a poll asking "Would you be in favor of President Trump issuing an executive order to make false news against the law?" Over 60% off Republicans said Yes.
2. Who doesnāt know that the lesbian couple who sued the bakery over their wedding cake completely morphed from its origins. The girls placed an order, left a deposit, and got a receipt. Then on the day it was to be picked up they said "No... we arenāt going to do that. They sued and they won based on the CONTRACT issue. Then the news picked it up, and it became a religious issue. Money from the religious right appealed, lost, appealed, lost all the way to the Supreme Court who rules in favor of it being a religious right. The thing is however, it was never ever about religious rights! Several stores in Texas, a restaurant, and a hardware store that I know of both have signs on their door saying "NO GAYS!" If you can put a sign in your window saying no shirt, no service, etc., you can serve whomever you want, this is America. But the bakery had no such sign, they accepted a contract, failed to honor it, and won on the religious issue. What no one is talking about is the long term implications that THIS RULING sets as a precedent! Pick a contract, your car loan, your house loan, your credit card contract, whatever. Any contract can now be null and void based on religious freedoms. Bank manager sees you come in with your same sex partner, they can cancel your home loan because serving you violates their religious freedoms, and the bank can demand full payment, and if not received, they can take your house. Bought a service contract on your car and you and your same sex spouse go in to get service, tough luck, we donāt serve gays. But we have a service contract! The car dealership doesnāt have to honor it. The implications are scary!

Ā @prettyacctĀ ā No, of course not. Initially he was very nice, answered calmly, watering my neighbors lawn, no I donāt have my ID, I live next door, etc. but when the police said they needed to ID him because of a possible burglary situation, the police made no effort to verify his information, they can pull up his name, property or address records, and photo on his id either on their vehicles laptop/computer or using their phone. Thatās when he (the man watering his neighbors lawn became justifiably incensed, he refused to go to his house and get his ID, and it escalated from there. Please understand me, it was within his rights as there was no reasonable suspicion of a crime, except for the neighbors 911 call, which is NOT evidence unless they said he had gained entry and given his description. When I was a kid my parents told me to ALWAYS remain calm, tell the truth, and while you can chose to not answer questions, you donāt argue with an officer. The time to argue is in court, later. The police overreacted, he overreacted, and I hope the pastor won millions for this false arrest.

People š The President, VP, and all of Congress and the Senate (if on committees that reviews them) and I believe Ambassadors frequently take secret material home, THEY are allowed, but not returning it IS A CRIME. Lower level people who can view these documents with clearance at or below their level such as staff of these politicians or ambassadors go to prison all the time. Rank has its privileges. That saidā¦ according to legal experts the issue for politicians is āWILLFUL RETENTION.ā āIFā Biden was informed he may have them, he probably asked his lawyers to search for them, and they did and returned them. The same thing happened to Hillary, National Archives asked, her people searched for, found and returned them. THE ISSUE WITH TRUMP is he lied, argued, fought and delayed them for over a year, then had his lawyer state legally that their search found no missing documents. Then the FBI hear from an informant they WERE there, they searched and found them. Trump lied and tried to keep them. They (Trumps team) has repeatedly asserted that they were locked up, and they were. But itās worth noting that when they needed access to locked rooms and doors, the groundskeeper, a handyman unlocked the doors for them as HE had a master key but zero clearance. The issue for Trump is Willful Retention.

Ā @billfegles2822Ā -- Texas is a Gun toting Republican 2nd Amendment state. EVERYONE has guns in Texas. Our Governor Abbott initial response to the Uvalde shooting was to lie and play up the states response, when the facts came out the police on site were told to hold, do not take the shooter, as the shooter was taking out children. Abbott tried to cover up that, he lied, KNOWING the facts. The final blame for the Uvalde shooting was an open door. Their solution, teach triage first aid in class starting at grade 3, and arm STUDENTS and TEACHERS. Not joking. And the kicker is Abbott was recently easily re-elected by a wide margin, and even in Uvalde polls showed 65% of Hispanics voted for Abbott. The Republican Party fights EVERY possible effort to keep children safe. Soon, if they get their way in addition to teaching 3rd graders how to use items of clothing to stop bleeding from gunshot wounds for fellow classmates, they, the kids, will be allowed to carry guns IN SCHOOL. Get that... your 12 year old goes to school with a 9mm.

Ā @heightsofsagarmathaĀ ā How so? I think you misunderstood my words and intent. I use a cane, one of them is a sword cane, and it is quite functional. I carry a pocket knife, and I have a CHL too. I am not a threat to anyone, unless you show clear intent to do me harm. This guy refused a lawful order, was clearly/presumably on drugs, and did turn towards the police officer posing an immediate threat. My point was an experienced officer knows the 20ā rule, these officers didnāt follow it. These officers intentionally put themselves in harms way, instead of putting one behind, pulling the car ahead, approached at angle, and had tasers ready. Putting yourself in harms way, near someone not acting sanely, carrying a machete, knowing if he lunged at you would need to fireā¦ didnāt show proper procedural forethought. The officers could have had one ready with a taser, and his backup ready with his service weapon if the taser didnāt work. My only point was there were options and safety protocolās that were not used. A lawyer seeing $$ could have a field day with this case in court. Not saying it was avoidable, or that it was the officers fault. So how is my analysis of this event wrong?

Ā @huntermontague4134Ā ā Thereās a 20ā rule, a suspect in good health can close the gap and attack you with hands, knife or other weapon in 20ā or less before you can raise your weapon. So, āWhat less lethal option was there?ā 1. Maintain proper distance. 2. Approach with back up at a 90Ā° angle (+/-), the officer in the suspects line of sight with his taser ready, the backup officer ready with his SR. The lead officer is the only one who speaks, orders him to drop his weapon, and if he rushes, or does not comply, deploys his Taser. The back up officer watches for effectiveness, if the suspect is down officer 1 handcuffs him. If the taser fails, and the suspect is a threat, lethal force is used. That is what backup officers are for, to help the lead officer. In this case the lead officer approached closer than he should have, and ended the threat. Youāre right about everything you said, but you left out the officers on scene have training that should have been followed.

Ā @heightsofsagarmathaĀ ā It may not be a policy violation, but it wasnāt standard practice. Every officer knows the 20ā rule, that a subject can close that distance before they can react, to draw and shoot. The officer placed himself closer than 20ā, in harms way, forcing or making it necessary to address the potential threat. A lawyer can ask āWhy did you put yourself within 20ā of the suspect, to directly confront a man armed with a machete in close proximity to yourselfā to create the appearance of officer error. Will it happen, youāre right, probably groundless and pointless, my bad. A lawyer āmight possiblyā argue that had the officer placed the vehicle between himself and the suspect, or pulled more than 20ā away before exiting the vehicle this situation he created could have ended differently. Iām NOT saying the idiot with the machete was not a threat, he was. All I am saying is the officer ācould have handled the situation differentlyā which might have had a different outcome. All I know is if the family of the deceased approaches a decent lawyer, who sees deep pockets in city resources, he could āpossiblyā make a decent case and litigate in hopes of a settlement. Would he win? Very doubtful. But lawyers know the cost of litigation. Defending a case like this will cost the city a hundred grand (estimate), so they will lowball the amount of the award to encourage a quick settlement from the city. This could have been avoided (if it ever happens) had the officer held to his training. And yes, I know, so many IFās here that this discussion is moot. I am making too many assumptionsā¦ cheers. š»

New sub, great video! Nest is one that I have tried, and mine wouldnāt work. Tried their customer service to resolve the issue, many, many, many calls, reboots, and answering stupid questions, I gave up. Just bought a five camera Arlo system that was advertised as being able to save date to a drive, Arlo cannot, they lied.

Ā FBA.D.O.S CUTheCHECK!! Kwa-BenaĀ ā Are you angry for what white people did over two hundred years ago, or mad at Trump. Trump wasnāt perfect, and while he supports racists, called people of color āAll Hispanics are thieves, rapists and murderers,ā that gives you the right to want someone else in office, not disrespect the office. And you sound like a Russian or China bot saying we nuked japan like itās a bad thing, when EVERY historian on any side agrees that the nuke saved lives, roughly half a million. Japan wasnāt going to surrender, they were militarized and indoctrinated by Japanese propaganda to fight to the last dying man, woman and child. US casualties were expected to be over 200,000 and Japanese casualties projected to be between one or two MILLION. Dropping the bombs, it took two, took over 200,000 lives (estimate, Iāve slept since history class). The mere fact that Japan is still Japan, that they kept their culture, says all you really need to know. And before you start trying to sow descent, the simple fact that youāre free to argue this, in English, without fear of reprisals, also tells you how wrong you are.

@john wickk ā America, like every country has its proās and conās. But NO country in the world is perfect, not even our USA. I can walk through the streets in India with little concern for my safety, but not in the downtown areas of Chicago, New York, Dallas, LA, heck, any major city. Please be aware of the subtle differences between Nationalism and National Pride, one is bad, the other is good.

Ā @LadyCatFelineTheSeventhĀ 97%, but close enough for government work. And yes, while COVID deaths are alarmingly high, all other causes or death have declined. Yes, this brings into question the death counts, but they can be partially balanced by the reduced interaction throughout COVID. And if you read what I said, you misunderstood or missed the lingering health issues for most they should recover in a year or so. For others, the lung damage āmayā be permanent. I get your point, same mortality rate as the flu, but itās not a flu, 60% experience lingering problems. And it isnāt the mortality rate thatās scary, itās the rate or contagion, itās exponentially higher than ANY other virus we have ever seen in recorded history. Search here on YouTube for āABBACA COVIDā and look for the comparison charts comparing COVID-19 with every known infectious disease in history. They did a simple chart showing the day 1 of each contagion that perfectly explains what makes COVID scary. Itās not the mortality rate, itās the infectious rate, the chart just wonāt stop going up. Simplify means with over 10 times the infectious rate, instead of 60k dead in a flu season, we have 600k.

Ā jill zafreakĀ ā āPeople in Australia think all lives matter,not people bleating like sheep that one cultural groups lives matter are considered too special to listen to.ā Pity all nations are as perfect like Australia. And reading your caustic rude dozen some odd comments here makes me believe you are one high and mighty Ms. Perfect. You sound like a Republican, which means youāre a racial bigot, with zero values. So glad you āgot it and survived, herd immunity requires less pussiness.ā What an arrogant thoughtless thing to say. You say āall lives matterā then in your next comment talk up herd immunity. You do realize what herd immunity us, right? Infect as many as possible, those susceptible to the virus ALL DIE reducing the odds of further deaths because the ānon-pussyā survivors are no longer spreading the virus. Itās flawed logic, and as sociopathic as it gets as it means exposing Australiaās 25 million people to the virus, which would mean 125,000 dead. Which is evidently just fine with you, just as it is to the USAās Republican Party.

Sharon Juarez ā Letting the Pedophiles lead you? Please tell me that you know Trump knew Epstein well. LOL! And letās talk about you, you support trump. Trumps legal records show 73 affairs, 5 abortions paid for, over 30,000 people defrauded and almost 4 million spent trying to get his current wifeās model-escort services advertisements scrubbed from the internet. These are not lies, these are facts. Refresh my memory, what were the Ten Commandments again? Let me put this as politely as I can, if YOU support trump, YOU are NOT a Christian. And likewise with Pence, his record is cleaner, but anyone who is so vehemently anti-gay, who believes it is a choice, isnāt straight, they are bi-sexual. Hello? I didnāt make a choice! The only people who had a choice are bisexuals. Wake up.

Ā @islami658Ā ā Personally I donāt care, but an elected official who has the power to help, ask for immediate relief assistance, recommend changes to the Texas power grid, even just taking steps to prevent this from happening again, THAT IS HIS JOB. We, most of Texas, was stuck, no water, no electricity, no gas, for over a week. Oh sure, our power clicked on for an hour every second or third day, but that was almost a heartless tease. Cruzās plan was to travel with his family to someplace warm when no one else could leave. He could of spun it as āI put my family first, and Iām not going to apologize for that,ā and I along with much of Texas would have respected that response. But Cruz lied.

Here is what I know, from released video footage from early attacks, take a few of the hospitals, satellite images showed armed people entering and leaving. They entered, searched, heard several shots, found tunnels, showed hostages that were shot rather than allowed to live. They also shared videos of underground rooms filled with arms and ammo left behind. The news showed multiple news sources, interviews with hospital residents who knew Hamas was entering and leaving, passed them in the hallways, and said nothing, but were outraged that Israel had attacked THEM. Do you get that? Those are facts. Itās proven civilians are actively serving as human shields to Hamas, Hamas chooses these locations for several obvious reasons, itās a cover as they mix in with civilians, they hope it hides or delays their discovery, and in the chance of an attack, they can point at the willing shields and play the victim. This is on Arab stations as well, it is not secret, and that you question me, our understanding of what is happening is sad. You should be ashamed. BOTH SIDES ARE WRONG HERE!

ihavetotakeashit ā Politicians, just like law enforcement officers, are just people like you and I, some good, some not, some honest as the days is long, some not. As with LEO's, one bad apple can spoil the whole lot. That you believe all politicians are corrupt, says more about yourself than any of them. Psychologically speaking, honest people assume others are too, dishonest people assume everyone else is like them, dishonest too. Want to know which neighbor you can trust with your house keys while youāre on vacation? Itās the neighbor who doesnāt feel the need to lock their doors.

ihavetotakeashit ā The Bible speaks strongly about who we associate with, liars, thieves, prostitutes etc., are to be avoided. My father would say about our friends he didnāt like because of their honesty, cursing, whatever "If you play with shit, you are going to get some on you.ā Simply put, the Republican Party Supportās a lying, adulterous, thieving, murdering, misogynistic ass who thinks women should be grabbed by their privates and forcibly kissed (assaulted). As do you evidently. If you are known by the company you keep, and you support trump, that speaks volumes about your character. So, yes, HELL YES, I question your integrity. Why? Because you stand for lies, hate, etc., everything that trump is, you are. You are keeping company with low life criminals, horrible people, deplorable evil uncaring people with no shred of humanity left in them, and THAT is a picture of YOUR character. Sorry. My father was right on this one.

Ā Yellowowl NighteagleĀ ā No worries, itās all good (and I am not high š¤£), And Yes, itās a weird, WEIRD world. Had a buddy in California many years ago that filed for a state marijuana producers license, got it, followed all the rules, and was busted by the Feds. Turns out federal law trumpās state law, he thought he was legal, and he lost everything. He pled to a lesser charge but still lost his business. That was when it first became legal, and I believe the differences in the laws has been ironed out, but too late to help him.

Ā @prind142Ā ā Please tell that to the citizens of England, Australia, and others who adapted their constitutions to make personal firearm ownership illegal. The beauty of out constitution is that it can be changed. Please know I am NOT saying it should be, Iām with you on the 2A, but it is possible. And if you understand politics, our nation, and itās laws, you know it possible and can see the trend towards tighter gun laws. If we canāt adapt, we CAN lose our 2a rights. Then, like Australia, if your home is invaded by gun wielding thugs, and you shoot them defending your family, you too can go to prison for longer than the home invaders. (One case the criminals got 2-3 years each, and the homeowner got 12 years.)

K B ā How are you and everyone here so ignorant of the facts? I didnāt point blame, I simply stated the truth. Yes, in my opinion ANYONE denying the worsening conditions is an idiot, you canāt lie with day old video and verified pictures. Bottom line this is happening, and if you argue against its veracity, you are complicit.
History lesson; Lawful entry is through border control points. I have a friend in Monterey Mexico who visits several times a year, itās not difficult to enter the USA. Illegal immigrants with either insufficient papers, identification, criminal histories, etc., are refused entry and enter the USA via another route. When they enter illegally, when discovered they are deported, UNLESS they have outstanding US criminal charges or warrants pending. If yes, they go to jail, if they have kids, the kids go to a holding or detention camp pending relatives picking them up. This system has been in place for decades, since Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama and now under Trump.
THE DIFFERENCE now is that Trump has implemented a "ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY" and many more juveniles and children are being held in these camps. Where relatives used to be able to pick up the children with the parents approval without difficulty, now they too must prove their residency status when picking up the children which has exacerbated the problem. These changes have resulted in severe overcrowding, poor living conditions and at least 24 known deaths. Are all of the deaths due to the conditions? I do not know. Iām just stating known facts.
Let me be CLEAR before all you SJWās jump on me and you Democrats and Republicans Rip me a new hole in my body. These are just the facts, Iām not pointing blame or trying to paint either party as more or less guilty. Doubt me, google it. Gāday.

The Real John Smith ā Every year J.D. Power does surveys of new vehicles and their initial quality reports and issues. Consumer Reports tracks and downloads vehicle service reports and tracks all repairs by category, by type, by vehicle by make, by model year after year.
And guys, we arenāt saying they are junk, or absolute garbage, just that comparing Jeeps and Fords is NOT fair. Both are not as reliable as others, this is proven by statistics so stop saying we are crazy. I for one have owned both. Jeeps are GREAT off road, turning radius, clearance, approach and departure angles, all excellently designed. But NO sane Jeep owner goes off-roading alone, you need help with repairs and to go to town for tools and parts. Fords have their strengths too, towing, GREAT! But reliability AGAIN, dependability AGAIN, not a Fords strong point. Ford Diesels go into limp mode FREQUENTLY as well as a host of other common mechanical issues. Doubt me? LOOK at Fords annual reports! There is a reason theyāre profitable! Down line product revenue from parts and maintenance sustains the company. Hello?
If you tow a trailer or fifth wheel, you WANT a Ford and the money to fix it. If you go off road, you want a Jeep, but NOT a base one, a RUBICON. And with either, never go alone as you want to get home. Jesus people, where have you been? Have you not been to 4x4 events? No Jeep driver drives their Jeeps to the events, they trailer them there. Why? They want to be able to get home.

The Real John Smith ā Seriously? We have 7 F250ās at work, 5 Chevyās (4 are diesels) and 7 Ram 2500ās. The F250ās are the problem children of the group. My friendās F250 goes into limp mode literally every 3 months like clockwork. Now sure what he does differently than our guys at work, but he still loves the truck, like you do. And Iāve driven them F250s at work many times, I like them, but their incidence of repair is high, might be higher than all of the others combined. Every major component, alternators, water pumps, starters, itās a constant battle. I have a 4 runner, my wife has a Sequoia, and Iām considering a Taco or Tundra. Toyotaās run 200k, 300k miles before anything breaks. And please, just STOP. When we go fishing, hunting and camping with my buddies mixed bag of vehicles, Iām the one who has to go to town to get parts and tools for their rigs. Stop taking this personally, I KNOW what I know. Jeeps and Fords are awesome for the function they were designed... but reliability is not one of them. And yes... I get it. I have to winch up some spots my Jeep buddies breeze through. I canāt tow the huge trailer up the steep road like my friends Ford. EACH HAVE THEIR STRENGTHS. Toyota (4Runners) are awesome, very reliable, but not the best off-road vehicles. But it goes over the same trails that broke their Jeeps and Fords, Chevys or Land Rovers sometimes 6 times in a day to get parts, food, tents, supplies, and tools. How about you donāt tell me Jeeps or Fords are reliable, WHEN THEY ARE NOT, and I wonāt tell you Toyota 4Runnerās are great off road when they are not. O.K.?

Ā @jamesvonborckeĀ ā Do you mean the first amendment? āAmendment I. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.ā
Or do you mean the prelim: āCongress of the United States begun and held at the City of New-York, on Wednesday the fourth of March, one thousand seven hundred and eighty nine.
THE Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.
RESOLVED by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, two thirds of both Houses concurring, that the following Articles be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States, as amendments to the Constitution of the United States, all, or any of which Articles, when ratified by three fourths of the said Legislatures, to be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of the said Constitution; viz.
ARTICLES in addition to, and Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, proposed by Congress, and ratified by the Legislatures of the several States, pursuant to the fifth Article of the original Constitution.
Article the first... After the first enumeration required by the first article of the Constitution, there shall be one Representative for every thirty thousand, until the number shall amount to one hundred, after which the proportion shall be so regulated by Congress, that there shall be not less than one hundred Representatives, nor less than one Representative for every forty thousand persons, until the number of Representatives shall amount to two hundred; after which the proportion shall be so regulated by Congress, that there shall not be less than two hundred Representatives, nor more than one Representative for every fifty thousand persons.ā
I do not see whatever you are intending to point out. My comment was simple, Jefferson wrote a letter to his church outlining his views of separation of church and state. I mean itās a concept, a letter to his church saying the church should not directly influence or control the state. Just as the state is not to control any religion.

With all of the election CRAP Trump and the Republican Party has pulled, to even point a wagging finger at the Democrats is hilarious! Worked w 2 foreign countries to influence an election, told his people to vote twice, told the nation mail in voting was fraudulent, then out his guy in charge of the USPS to slow it down, then changed the law in multiple states to make votes count if they are RECEIVED by Election Day as opposed to postmarked by it. Then in states like Texas change the mail in ballot drop off points from cities to counties, meaning that to make the deadline people would have to drive hundreds of miles in some cases, sit in traffic, lines, just to drop off their ballot at the county drop off point. Republicans have done EVERYTHING possible to bias the system in their favor, including pack the SCOTUS with Republican loyalist judges so that his appeals would stand a better chance of success and keeping Trump in office. @DEEP SPACE NATION, right back at you. Why are Republicans suing states to āSTOP THE COUNT?ā The right to vote is a constitutional right, you are literally un-American for even suggesting this, let alone litigating for the end of democracy! Even in states where Bidenās leading they are suing to stop the count! Which is hilarious as if they complied, Trump would have sued the state to let him lose the state before a full vote count had been completed. If that doesnāt make you laugh, nothing will! š¤£

Ā @dianewillard2531Ā ā I couldnāt agree with you more. If you attended a Bible based church you would hear things like my relatives churchās pastor says, like: āIf you consider yourself a Christian, you WILL vote Republican! Because if you donāt vote Republican, YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN!ā This is repeated regularly in a hundred different ways, for them, this is a battle of faith, they literally believe āTHEY are doing Gods will here on earth and all things are permissible.ā Thatās a reference to a 1 Corinthians scripture that says all things are permissible to people of faith, which they have re-interpreted to mean all crimes, lies, all acts, EVERYTHING is permissible in the fight against evil. Thatās WHY they started bussing 150k illegals a month 2 years ago. Itās why the justices lied to get appointed to SCOTUS, and why they will never be prosecuted for lying to a congressional hearing. Faith.

Ā @irchristoĀ ā Yeah, youāre projecting a little. I take no joy from their troubles, Iām not holding myself up as more moral, or less. I try to not be judgmental. What I find funny is he was purporting to be a very moral person of high character, a religious leader, and has kicked many a young man out of his college for less that what he has apparently been doing regularly for a long while. THAT is funny. Like when Bush Jr. gave a speech about the importance of values (his), caring, and setting a good example. Then afterwards got caught on a hot mike calling a journalist four letter words and making very derogatory comments about him. You SAW the act, and then he got caught red handed being much different that his public persona. But hey, if it makes you feel better to believe youāre better, to lecture others and accuse us of taking joy at others failures... you go boy, you go!

Ā @irchristoĀ ā LOL! Let me guess... Republican? That explains everything. Youāre cool with adultery, open marriages, infidelity, and every other form of depravity. Values are meaningless, your faith isnāt important to you as you are willing to sacrifice every value you hold to support the āGodly Republican Party.ā You are defending a man of God, Falwell, who has sunk to the bottom of humanity, denounced God, and proven himself to be the very thing he has preached against and taught his disciples his entire life to despise. So as a Republican you come to the defense of a religious leader who has shown himself to be unholy, a liar, a man without principles, who chucked his faith to watch and encourage his wife to commit adultery while he watched and annoyed the show. And you see no issue with Falwell, still support him, and fail to even see the humor in his actions.

Ā @sorzin2289Ā ā Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, THIS phase of the same war still continues. Iām not naive, you evidently are a Russian or Republican dolt. I mean Bot, my bad. I like to oversimplify, and as RUSSIA ATTACKED UKRAINE, Russia is the aggressor, Russia is wrong, and Russia deserves whatever it gets. They elected Putin overwhelmingly with over 90% of the vote, and now they are only beginning to feel the pain THEY have inflicted on others. Letās see how you feel when Russian casualties Line the streets like they have in Ukraine. Letās see how Russia likes cold winters without power, heat or fuel. And seriously, Russia doesnāt just need to stop, they need to lose. Why? Because if Russia takes Ukraine, and Putin proceeds with his plan to take Finland and Poland, both of which ARE NATO countriesā¦ Hell will be here on earth. Think this throughā¦ life as Russians know it will be over, and that is assuming Russia doesnāt use Nukes. This thread postulates that military industry profits, which they do, but that has absolutely NOTHING to do with this conflict. Want it to stop? All Russia has to do is walk away. But Putin just keeps pushing, attacking, targeting and killing Ukrainian civilians. Naive is not realizing that NATO and the USA are limiting the weapons and support they are providing Ukraine. Every escalation has been in response to Russian actions. This entire war is planned by, caused by, orchestrated by Putin. Russia is in the drivers seat, all he has to do is hit the brakes or turn around.

Ā Guy IncognitoĀ ā You are seriously clueless. I was not inspired by hate by Trump. Your generalization that all WW2 people, the entire generation were inspired to hate by the Germans is insanity. They experienced things first hand that we can only imagine. Neither my parents or I hate Germans or any nationality. My grandparents who lived through it, who kept I touch with family in Ireland, Germany and Finland, they had a hatred that ran so intensely it was scary as hell sometimes, but I assure you, it was for cause. That you would dismiss it as a response to or because of propaganda is sad, rude even.
And seriously, I donāt hate Trump, I voted for him in 2016, but didnāt this year. Not because I hate him, because I see him as a salesman, a spin master, a slick smart salesman who lies and manipulates everyone his entire life, itās how he became successful, and even his success I believe is self hype. I donāt hate him, I see him for what he is, a liar, a master manipulator, and believe his followers, like you, whom I call Trumpets, are as close to a cult as it can be without actually being one. And I believe him to be dangerous, just because he and his followers are attempting to destroy democracy in our nation, and justify it behind nationalistic ideals. But I donāt hate his followers either, I just think them misled. Please stop trolling, itās not a good look, and it belittles you unnecessarily.

There are tickets you can buy, for say one to two weeks or a month that allow you to island hop. There are ferries that travel from island to island overnight, so you tour the island town by day, shop, stay overnight if you wish, dine, and when you return to the ship, you wake up at another island. They have a lot of younger people who camp on the decks, rooms if you upgrade, food, etc.

Ā @KrustyKlownĀ -- I agree, in part. The ENTIRE point of mens AND women's sports was because in many sports, men have a distinct advantage because of our innate strength. Much of this strength is due to hormonal differences between men and women growing up. This woman didn't undergo conversion until well after puberty, she had an advantage, a head start so to speak. If an athlete tests positive for steroids is disqualified as a cheater, how is this different? She in effect (yes I know, not the same thing) has been taking steroids all her life. Taking female hormones doesn't negate 20 years of male hormones and growth. No one (okay, well some) is stuck on the trans issue, they are stuck on the fact that a man or a woman who was once a man competing against women in some sports gives them a distinct advantage. Had a natural born women taken steroids, she would be disqualified. In this case she has effectively taken steroids for 20 years before transitioning. There is no easy answer here, but to not acknowledge the male/female differences is stupidity.

Ā @davidharvey5065Ā ā I am a respectful Republican, and getting him out I thought would end this, but all yāall WANT HIM BACK! And what exactly did he actually DO? He said he did a lot, was the best everything, and was responsible for nothingā¦ Trump is a liar. Whatever he said he did, suspect the opposite. If your goal is to have a faithless, irresponsible, deceitful, evil, two faced, dishonorable, deceptive, disruptive, disrespectful Republican Party, then you have got what you wanted. I want more. You and I are at polar opposites, and the Republican Party I used to love and respect is dead.

Ndubuisi Azi ā because polls are irrelevant. You know that electoral votes are what count, right? And 39 states have āfaithless electorates.ā This means that if a state has 20 votes, and the entire state votes democrat Trump can buy, bribe, sway those electoral voters with anything he wants, jobs, cars, money, doesnāt matter as long as it works. So Its possible that with 100% voting Democrat, the 20 electoral votes can be all cast for Trump, because Trump is a smart man. Your vote is irrelevant.

Trumpās like my neighbor. I say Iād like my BBQ back, he responds I didnāt steal your BBQ! I say of course not, thatās why Iām asking for it back. GET OFF MY PROPERTY! I smile and pull out my camera, hold it up for him to see the security video of him wheeling my BBQ away and he says Not me! I call the police. I can hear him and his wife screaming and cursing, Iām this Iām that (we had been friends up to when he was caught), Iām the liar, Iām the thief, he wife screams she was there with her husband watching tv all night and he never left, didnāt steal nuthinā and you can hear their silence when they watch the video, and then her scream thatās not my husband, he is a liar! Bla bla bla... The police come back and tell me the man in the video canāt be identified as him, his wife gave him an alibi, I didnāt witness it, etc. two weeks later I smell cooking and look out the window, there he is, cooking on my BBQ. The more he raises his voice, the more he repeats a lie, the more he thinks people believe him.

Keep in mind that there might be other motivations for the war on terror. Regan passed a law severely limiting spending, raises, etc., if the budget was not balanced, "EXCEPT DURING TIMES OF WAR." Thatās why Clinton worked so hard to balance the budget, and succeeded. Then came Bush, the WTC attacks and even though we KNEW the attackers were Saudi nationals, trained and armed by them in Saudi Arabia, we attacked Afghanistan, then Iraq under the guise of WMD's. We have been at war since Clinton left office, why is no one asking why?

Bergr B ā Please donāt be an ass and attempt to single handedly rewrite history. Did some Americans cheer, maybe, I donāt know I wasnāt alive yet. But I can imagine some did, but this was war, Japan bombed us, they declared war on US NOT the other way around. Iāve known several WW2 USA veterans, and every single one of them felt it was horrible to drop the atom bombs, but DOING SO SAVED LIVES. Not just a few million American lives, but millions of Japanese lives as well. They Japanese soldiers were FIERCE! Surrender was literally NOT a word in their vocabulary. Even after the first A-Bomb, Japan refused to surrender, it took TWO. And considering that Japan is STILL Japan today, an independent nation, when their goal was to obliterate the USA... that is pretty amazing. You clearly wish to paint America in a bad light... but seriously can you imagine what the Russians, Germans, and Japanese would have done had they had the bomb first? Think please before you answer. The United States was NOT the aggressors in WW2, had we been those countries would not exist today. Germany sought world domination. Russia and Germany both invaded multiple neutral nations, parts of Russia today were once Polandās, and Finlandās territories. Japan also wanted to be a world power, and in fact are today. The United States did not do to them what they sought to do to us. Dropping not one, but two atomic bombs on Japan was done to STOP the war, to end it. It was a horrible act, and thankfully has never been repeated. But please do not think for a SECOND that Americans were cheering the deaths of several hundred thousand people. They were cheering the decisive end of the war, a victory hard won at an incredible loss of life on both sides. You REALLY need to think before you speak and educate yourself on the history of the world before you pass judgement.

serena ā Because they say LOVE the guy, and he is the leader of Pakistan, a country that hates us, the USA, even though we send them billions in aid every year. Pakistan helped fund, plan and train the 911 terrorists then their leader comes to America and our stupid President smiles and welcomes Pakistan's President to our country. How do you not see the irony? The leader of a nation that takes our money, yet loathes us, has helped attack us, and whose people cheered and danced in the streets after the 911 attacks, visits. Thatās weird, twisted, and wrong on every level.

Ā @johnaceto7126Ā ā But you share many traits with my dad. After insemination his job was done, he left, like youā¦ offspring could fend for themselves, children were to be seen not heard. Spoke to him as I was turning 18, I mentioned college hoping he could help. Dad just asked me if I had priced cigarettes lately, meaning that cigarettes were expensive, those were his priority, and thatās the only answer I got. Soā¦ YEAH, you might as well be my dad. It wasnāt a random question. If your name was Art, I would not be surprised.
Ever taken a genetics class? One day the professor used the prevalence of Blacks in some sports, and essentially explained why there were so many. By todayās standardsā¦ the conversation would be considered racist, however at the time, in that class, he proved his point with data.

Chaos Engagement ā Actually the information comes from the Republican GOP website and just cover his lawsuits over the prior decade, LOL! Their 2012 opposition papers from when trump ran as an Independant (verified by USA Today) indicate he has paid for 5 abortions (murder), had 73 āknownā affairs (adultery), over 30,000 people defrauded (theft), and that he spent just shy of 4 million attempting to scrub his wifeās model-escort history from the web. Please refresh my memory... what were those silly Ten Commandments again? And Trumps father was a Nazi, was a KKK member, and did immigrate from Germany. What I donāt get, is that we are known by the company we keep. You support Trump, a serial adulterer, unrepentant liar, user of prostitutes, who had defrauded (theft) tens of thousands of people, and you trumpets donāt flinch, you find nothing wrong with him. This makes you just like him, if truth means nothing to you, why should we believe a single word out of your mouth?

Ā @therealthreadkillaĀ -- Seriously? LOL! Ray Epps was one of those MANIPULATED. And those videos of him saying that were taken the day before, 1/5/21. Trump started the process by repeatedly declaring that "the only way he could lose would be if the Dem's cheated," a full six months before the first vote could be case. Why? Because the week before Trump was told his chances for reelection were less than 50%. This made the election the most watched, recounted and audited election in history. Despite the 170 something lawsuits, not one incidence of voter fraud was found (one recount was ordered), even though over 80% of the judges were selected because they were Republican. Trump tried to take it to the supreme court, tried to replace electoral voters because they voted wrong, tried to overthrow the election legally, slowed down the post office, sued all states and won in 16 to 'quietly' change the date mail in votes were accepted from Postmarked by to Received by Election Day, and spurred the crowds on January 6th to act.

Ā @PerrodenĀ -- J B doesn't trust news media, and was too lazy to google or search YouTube for info. I get it, I have many relatives like that, if FOX doesn't say it and Newsmax doesn't confirm it (parrot it), it ain't true. Doesn't matter that it's on video on a hundred stations, it's fake news. Odd that this only seemed an issue once Trump started calling mainstream news fake news. It doesn't matter to them or any Trumpet cult member what the truth is, they WANT to believe Fox News, even though in the dozen some odd lawsuits against them Fox defends themselves that they aren't news, they are entertainment, and as such are allowed to lie under free speech rules. Let's also posit that free speech goes as far as public safety allows, shout "FIRE!" in a theater when there is none and you risk lives, and will likely go to jail. Trump and his Trumpet army trumpeted lies about the election which was argued in over 140 cases in the US in almost every state, shopped predominately to Republican Judges and only one single case of election fraud won (Texas, a county had a law that poll watchers had to be in the same room as the vote counters and that county had erected small glass rooms inside the big room due to COVID. A recount was ordered which changed nothing.). ALL other cases ended up being thrown out, and several lawyers lost their licenses to practice law as a result. Why? you can lie in a case filing, in court, to a jury, but NOT to a judge. If you watched the cases all end the same essentially as Giuliani's cases did; The judge repeatedly asks if they have evidence of voting fraud, gets a non-answer (remember can't lie to a judge), and finally Giuliani says "No, but we just KNOW there was fraud." Followed by "Case Dismissed." Trump's LIES cost LIVES, although the number is debatable due to after the event suicides by disillusioned officers, it did cost lives. Just like a theater and yelling fire, free speech laws end where it affects public safety (per SCOTUS).

Ā @libidinousbear4563Ā ā Bill, Iāve watched Fox News almost daily for a decade, AND all of my relatives are Republican, as was I. Most of my relatives are proud racists, they donāt think of themselves as such, but their faith requires it they say. As God created and separated the races at the Tower of Babel, God wants the races separate, āWe are not to associate, speak to, or accept people of color, they are not of God.ā ā Billy Graham. So donāt spin this, donāt lie, donāt claim not to be what you are.

@Robert Le ā Most of the comments were āthey donāt work, their job is a break, they get WINE at WORK! They have lounge chairs.ā Every single one of these commenters knows that in creative and tech fields itās not slaving away, itās hours of stressful mentally demanding work, which is why companies like Twitter take steps to encourage breaks, it helps productivity. Sure they might grab a tablet and go answer emails on the roofā¦ so? They also know that the videos shown of them pointing out their perks, doesnāt mean that is true of their actual work day. I work for AT&T Wireless, we might work a 20 hour work week on week, and then have issues that demand 18 hour days for weeks. Iāve worked 72 hours straight when there were outages. If you saw us on a light day, you might see something like this, we occasionally take long lunches, we occasionally leave early, we occasionally have long pizza and beer project meetings. That doesnāt mean we donāt work. From these videos everyone here seems to be angry that THEY donāt have these perks, THEY donāt get a glass of wine occasionally at the end of the day, free popcorn or free coffee. Seriously? EVERYONE here is like āthey donāt have to workā leaving the āas hard as I doā off. So what?! Twitter isnāt profitableā¦ but remind me how many years Tesla was not profitable? Musk has a reputation for hiring the best people and being very demanding. How do you think he keeps those exceptional people from burning out? Perks? Hello? How about we wait and see what happens, Musk is brilliant, letās see what he does. Will all those perks go away? Maybe š¤ who knows?

@Drew Blood ā Seriously? The weather AND climate change are interrelated. Want to know what separates forests from deserts? 2 degrees in worldwide temperature. As the world warms, and we see changes, weather events increase. We are currently at an increase of 80% more severe weather events decade over decade. People like you donāt seem to be able to comprehend how nature is affected by temperature change, recently I listened to our pastor say that increased forest fires were a sign of Gods final days and NOT climate change, he almost said the end of the world is a good thing as Gods time is near. I applaud his sentiments but not his iQ. Warmer climate means less rain, which means drier forests, which means more combustion and forest fires. This in turn means warmer air, less trees, less oxygen, and less rain, and the cycle worsens.

Supersonic means faster than sound... so supersonic underwater would be a world of difference compared to in the air as sound travels slower in water. Besides people, think about this... the sonic boom underwater would be slow and catastrophic. LOL! Not to mention that the science of speed, be it planes, automobiles and especially submarines. Air offers resistance, water offers a whole lot more resistance. Think about this... your 180 HP car has a top speed of say 120 mph on land, for that car to go faster, it will need roughly 20% more horsepower for each 10 miles per hour faster. Why? WIND RESISTANCE. Water is thicker than air, so... and Iām guessing here... the energy required to go supersonic underwater would be off the charts, the engine size would be prohibitively big. Think of it this way... the land speed record was set on the salt flats with a forty some odd foot rocket engine car... in atmosphere. So a car that will do 100 mph is eight feet long, to go supersonic it takes exponentially more horsepower for every few extra miles per hour. Add 784 times increased resistance with water, and you would need a submarines engine to deliver enormous power and it would have to be shaped like a sewing needle. Assuming you could do the out of this world math, and could engineer an underwater submarine with enough power and fuel, and a hull strong enough to take that mind blowing pressure... your payload, I.e. the PURPOSE of building it... would be rendered moot. I call BS on this video.

Ā @nikhilnewse3318Ā ā Factors yes. But you know that. The US economy is huge. The cost of fuel is driven by oil companies selling futures based on investor confidence. When Biden cancelled the (still not finished) Keystone pipeline, fuel prices went up. Everyone who didnāt sleep through economics class knows the only effect it had was on investors confidence, as the pipeline was not operating, the nations oil supply was not affected. My point is, this situation has many nuanced causes, and even good intentions can have unintended effects. So yes, Trumps tariffs on China have a part in this, and Bidenās cancelling the keystone pipeline had a part too. But, again, you know this, you are just trolling.

Ā @toddlavigne6441Ā ā Letās be clear, Trump has been spreading a bunch of lies because he is... well.. a liar. He uses every D-word tactic you can think of, deny, distance, destroy, decry, distract, and discredit. Iām sure thereās more but thatās all I could think of on the fly. Has Hunter been at the center of controversy? ABSOFREAKINGLOUTELY! But also remember too that Trump ordered A. G. Barr to investigate Hunter Biden and Barr did. Final result? THEY FOUND NO PROSECUTABLE CRIMES, NO LAWS BROKEN, NO PROOF OF ANYTHING. Yet Trump persists. I get it, Hunter Biden looks guilty AF, thereās some weirdness going on, the worst that I can see is āmaybeā selling access to the President. Oh BUT WAIT FOR IT... that all comes from a laptop a repair company found data on when it was left for repair and never picked up. THINK PLEASE! Right before the election, a laptop with emails that no one has released is found, days before the election, with damaging information about Trumpās candidate. How does this not SCREAM š± perfect timing to you? How does it not sound like Trump and Republicans? Trump withheld aide to Ukraine unless they āannounced an investigation into the Bidenās,ā not open an investigation because Ukraine had already done two investigations... JUST āANNOUNCE AN INVESTIGATION.ā Obama, the Clinton Foundation, Hillary, also some questionable acts, also investigated, no actionable or prosecutable evidence found, but Trump continues to INSIST THEY ARE CRIMINALS WITHOUT A SHRED OF PROOF. And itās not just Trump and his Trumpets (like you), itās the entire Republican Party! In Texas when Bush ran for governor days before the election Karl Rove announced they had called the FBI because a āBUG was found in their campaign headquarters.ā Hit the news big but so close to the election there was no time to refute it, and Bush won. Afterwards the FBI report was brief, recording device was cheap, range of 300 feet, battery life was roughly 3 hours, battery was removed immediately on being turned off (standard procedure) for later testing, the battery was found to have roughly 3 hours time remaining. Summary, the device (bug) was not functional as a listening device due to range and battery life, and the battery life indicated the bug was in service (on) mere moments before the FBI entered the room, was most likely a plant used to influence voters. Proof was found as one of Roveās assistants was seen on video surveillance buying the device at an electronics store, but no prosecutions ever came from that debacle.
And letās be equally clear about the shutdown, and the economy... Trump KNEW how bad the virus was, knew what should be done, and decided to LIE to everyone to hide it for the sake of our economy. Understandable, and BTW everyone knows we need to return to normal! Wonder why we arenāt? In January/February almost every other nation on earth closed its boarders and urged precautions... but the USA. We said it was a hoax, played down all safety measures and did NOTHING until June! And even now, as of today with over 220,000 dead, YOU Trumpets still refuse to wear masks! You say masks donāt protect you, we have rights! Seriously, how stupid, how ignorant can you be to not understand that masks donāt protect the person wearing them! MASKS PROTECT OTHERS AROUND YOU FROM YOU! Why do you think nurses and doctors wear masks during surgery? TO HELP PREVENT DOCTORS AND NURSES FROM SPREADING INFECTIONS TO THE PEOPLE BEING OPERATED ON! You say we need to open up the country! Trumpās the man doing the right thing! I say BULLSHIT! We are where we are today because of Trump and his trumpets, virus deniers all, canāt make me wear a mask, itās against my constitutional rights (itās not), and YOU TRUMPET DOLTS HAVE SPREAD THE VIRUS LIKE CRAZY! Everyone wants to return to work, get business back to normal, and knows we NEED to! But Trump and his Trumpetās like you still canāt understand the simple fact that masks donāt protect the wearer (air is drawn in from edges as you inhale), masks are to protect everyone else fro YOU! Good God People, how incredibly thick, illogical, dumb, stupid, insane can yāall be? And sorry, but I am trying to be confrontational because clearly polite is completely lost on you all! And YES! The USA is in a sad state! Want to know why? LOOK IN A MIRROR!
And one more thing about masks, there is a REASON why many have said that the ādust filteringā masks sold at hardware stores are better than the medical masks being sold... BECAUSE THEY FILTER MORE OF THE AIR YOU BREATHE IN THAN MEDICAL MASKS.

Ā @toddlavigne6441Ā ā How Classic Canadian! Only a Canadian would apologize for being a Canadian. š Iām sorry I called you a Trumpet. And again, I really want to scream this in all caps. Yes. True. Totally irrelevant. Yes, low mortality rate, just like to flu. NOT THE POINT! It is the most infectious virus we have ever seen. So while just the flu (I know,,,) that normally might kill 30k in a year, this kills ten times as many just because it is so contagious and affects so many people. Thereās a video graph thingy I watched a few months ago. Data might be out of date let me see if I can find it. šš¼ Edit, here you go. PLEASE WATCH! https://youtu.be/ujQ9Gy0LWiQ Note that this is newer than I had watched previously in March, itās more up to date. The first series, a few moments, of graphs showing all known viruses compared to Covid is what I was referring to.

Letās examine your comment... Bush started the Iraq and Afghan wars due to 9/11, KNOWING at the time that the attack was funded by, training provided by, and doe on the soil of Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. But they were our allies, couldnāt attack them, even blame them, because it would mean literal economic collapse in America. Bush Jr. told his staff (Read Colin Powellās book) to MANUFACTURE evidence to justify an attack. Obama, didnāt help, and Trump ORDERED the withdrawal of Afghanistan, and got us thrown out of Iraq. This is a complex situation with no easy answers, and you are blaming Biden just because the withdrawal happened on HIS watch. Grow up! Biden isnāt perfect, he was no ones first choice, but he is better than a lying cheating back stabbing, two faced Trump, and yes... I am a Republican and voted for him in 2016.

Ā @saberhap2639Ā ā Correction, searched for and found the links. My apologies for doubting you, Iām very sorry. What I see are coincidences, with no direct link to Spacey. I fail to see the motivation Spacey might have for retaliation as in all cases they were over 18, Spacey made a pass, they declined and they went their separate ways.
Previous comment: I just searched for that, sorry. Youāre lying. Care to share a source as apparently google knows nothing. I do see lots of info and analysis of his accusers, no assaults occurred. In all cases, again, Rapp was underage, but all others were over 18, all said Spacey made a pass, they declined, they went their separate ways. Why are you trying to spin this with lies? What motivation could you possibly have? Seriously, I donāt get you.

Ā @register1430Ā ā 10% of men have had a homosexual experience, so yes, about 5%. Add women (higher), add bisexuality, add questioning, and add the entire LGBTQ+ alphabet and you have over 20%, nearly 25% depending on the study. Granted these statistics are in the USA, not Afghanistan where they throw gays from rooftops. All I know is that when we looked at the details of Spaceyās case, it was completely different than anything else in the #metoo category. It was investigated extensively, and not one case was successfully filed against him. What the public learned was Spacey liked men, and was promiscuous, and THAT ruined his otherwise outstanding career.

Ā @saberhap2639Ā ā I goofed, I did find some links after posting my prior response (Iāll edit it). I see the deaths, butā¦ no direct or indirect connection to Spacey other than their initial accusations. And again, their original statements/cases were investigated, all were over 18, Spacey made a pass, they said no, they went their separate ways. And yes, 3 are high, but given they were promiscuous homosexual males, and the host of different risk factors inherent to their lifestyleā¦ without some sort of other link, I am not sure I want to hang Spacey for their deaths.

Ā @spacelemur7955Ā -- You're preaching to the choir, LOL! The same relatives, even my brother so we share a common upbringing and value system had values pre-Trump, suddenly started having no values whatsoever. I blame the pastors of those churches, as they pushed the "Republicans are Godly, Democrats are evil baby killing sexual perverts," mantra. Add to that the repeated sin can be forgiven doctrine, where EVERYTHING but homosexuality is forgivable, so have an affair, atone/ask for forgiveness, rinse and repeat -- It's all good belief system. When Reagan met personally with the nations top 1000 evangelical leaders, taking time to meet each and every one he began a marriage that is now cemented in stone. The GOP realized the money increased after that event, as the 1000 went home and told their congregations that the Republican Party shared their interests started a ball rolling that can't be stopped.
And yes, some of my relatives have retained their core beliefs, some, like my brother have lost all. Quoting their preacher that because they are all doing God's work, all things are permissible. So not just Trump, then the politicians, then ALL Republicans can do, say anything, no crime is off the table, no act too heinous. This creates a lawless portion of society IMO that breeds Marjorie Traitor Greene's and Bobert's.

Anyone who has ever worked for a business or even taken courses will hear amazons statements and laugh their bums off. Safety is only important as far as it affects their bottom line. Lawsuits, employee turnover, bad press... THAT is why companies care about safety. There is a REASON they use temporary contract employees who provide their own vehicles, uniforms, and insurance ā MONEY. Doing so costs less than full time employees cost. If a vehicle has an accident, rear ends someone, whatever, they protect the company assets. You see an Amazon logo, call a lawyer, and find out Amazon just licenses their contract delivery services to use their name, the truck wasnāt owned by Amazon, the driver worked for a contractor with Amazon, you arenāt going to get more than the standard max $25k to $50k even though they (the driver) killed your family. Why do I say this? Because I worked for AT&T, our cell techs used to drive company vehicles, that stopped after the first few lawsuits. Now, the vehicles are leased, the insurance for them, are subcontracted out, all so when an accident happens, it decreases the companyās liability.

Samuel Luria ā There is no agenda. But it does indicate a change for the better that if openly LGBT people are elected, hate, bias, homophobia are on the decline. It means that people are being elected based on their positions on issues, instead of what they do in private. Just a few years ago the thought of a black person being elected to our presidency was laughable, but it happened, voters saw beyond Obamaās skin color. Low IQ bigots will always struggle to put different people down, to control and moderate them. I assume you are a Republican based on your comment, so you may, like my relatives believe that Trump, as a Republican is Godly. You CHOSE to ignore or look past the facts of his well over 33,000 lawsuits for his business practices, and his 73 out of court settlements for sexual assault (affairs) in the past decade. You also chose to ignore his lack of honesty, integrity, honor and character. You ignore the fact he married a prostitute whoās pictures, escort-model web sites for "Clients of means only" are still online for you to view. But even though the Bible says all sins are equal, you think you know better than God what sins are the worst. And you probably consider yourself a Christian. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Go ahead, pick up that rock.

Hardworking Man ā Does the term a saucer short of a full tea set mean anything to you? People can be idiots. We have speed limits, school zones, seatbelt laws, and motorcycle helmet laws because some of us are walking body part donors. You are advocating against wearing masks when we know the virus kills .5% of those infected. Which means given its infection rate and 2 week incubation period where people like YOU can spread it to everyone they meet, touch, or touch something in common in less than a 9 hour period (think countertops, railings, mailboxes, door handles, etc.) one single infected person can infect one million people in a month. So what you are arguing for is YOUR RIGHT TO KILL 5,000 PEOPLE IN A MONTH. Absolutely not joking. There are words for people like you, sociopaths, killers, criminals, trumpets and Republicans.

Pamala Dalrymple ā The issue isnāt WHEN you end a life, itās that you intervene (abortion) when that baby could live, itās a life at any stage, and the baby has no voice and has done nothing to deserve its life to be terminated. Instead of defending Democrats pro-choice stance, why not defend the Democrats Pro-Life policy and how the Republicanās fight their every effort? Their stance is anti-abortion PERIOD. They donāt understand that the reason SCOTUS sided with the mother in Roe vs. Wade was because mothers were having abortions in backrooms in non-medical environments. Where if complications arose from the coat hanger late term abortion, it meant death for mother and child as going to the hospital meant mother and the people performing an abortion would be arrested for murder. They WANT a return to that time. Democrats are Pro-Life, not anti-abortion like the Republicans. Democrats want a 3-7 day waiting period to be informed about her options, assistance with education, housing, employment and medical care... and if needed adoption. Then the mother can have an abortion If wished. The Republicans fight every Pro-life effort tooth and nail, WHY?!? Because itās not about saving babies lives, itās about keeping. The money flowing in for the CAUSE of anti-abortion. Think on that, weāve been fighting Roe vs. Wade for 48 years, 60,000,000 lives lost... but they just want the money. Republicans donāt give a rats ass about saving lives.

While true, you are ignoring the fact that more guns arenāt the answer just as less guns arenāt the answer. We are all ignoring the fact that guns DO enable mentally off-balance people to do more harm than they might do with a hammer. It irks me to no end that we arenāt teaching mental health every year in our educational system, how to keep it, how to find purpose, how to be happy, how to handle depression, how to spot issues in yourself and others AND how to effectively deal with these issues when you become aware. Our LEOās have two options (think green light/red light), allow weapons or not allow weapons to individuals who have a history of violence or mental issues. We need to change this so for example we add a yellow and Orange status to say prevent certain people from owning multiple high magazine capacity magazines, or in some cases being allowed to only have a weapon at home but NOT on you outside of your home (carry).
My logic is simple, look back to the 1960ās, presidential debates where a question about gun control were not just laughed at, they were mocked. With every passing presidential term the same question meets less and less resistance, as more and more mass shootings occur. This shift in public opinion is noticeable as in the last several elections EVERY Democrat candidate supported gun control of some kind. The WHY is simple, the American peopleās attitudes are changing, as they grow more concerned about their and their familyās safety, they voice these concerns to politicians who must adopt these concerns in order to get elected. If you follow this trend, we will begin to see Republicans change their opinions too, and as gun lobbyistās fight EVERY change, what I fear is reaching a point when āthe rubber band snapsā resulting to a modification or deletion of our Second Amendment rights, then only the criminals will have guns. Before you say this will never happen, remember that the U.S. Constitution is written in pencil, it can and has been changed. If we, ALL OF US, both parties donāt take steps to reduce gun violence, we will lose the second amendment, and it will be ALL OF OUR FAULTS.

amber67 bam ā You know that electoral votes are what count, right? And 39 states have āfaithless electorates.ā This means that if a state has 20 votes, and the entire state votes democrat Trump can buy, bribe, sway those electoral voters with anything he wants, jobs, cars, money, doesnāt matter as long as it works. So Its possible that with 100% voting Democrat, the 20 electoral votes can be all cast for Trump, because Trump is a smart man. Your vote is irrelevant.

Ā @VV-lz1xpĀ ā While I am a person of faith, and am pro-life, I was simply answering the original commenters question. If you want to know my position, as at inception a life is started, any act such as an abortion terminates that potential life. And I agree with free will, itās their choice, and also donāt feel the state should block abortion unless the state is going to pick up the tab to raise that child. What irks me is Republicans block every attempt to save babies through removing the obstacles we can, by job, housing, educational, medical assistance and adoption. Republicans vote AGAINST these laws under the stated belief it would incentivize pregnancy, and lessen their support from the religious right. Did you catch that? Abortion is wrong, unless it brings in money, then we (Republicans) will fight against any and all concessions as it will limit/reduce our revenue stream and decrease party loyalty.

Ā @VV-lz1xpĀ ā Who said I support the Republican Party? LOL! I go to church with family and relatives, they are ALL MAGA Dolt Republicans and what I am is well versed in WHY they are doing this. Itās wrong, self centered, undemocratic and inhumane. While I do believe an abortion ends a life, and that potential child has no voice in the issue, I believe we should help remove the barriers (fear of interrupted or loss of job/education/housing/medical expenses etc.) to save those we can. But I am literally a lone voice in my church on this issue. Not to mention if you study the Bible, sacrifices, killing the first born, killing armies, etc. were frequent in scripture, this is in direct opposition to modern Christianityās āThou shall not killā belief.

Faith. Itās not political, itās faith based. āGOD appointed Trump!ā They BELIEVE in Trump, and the party. It started with Reagan who met personally with the nations top 1000 evangelical leaders, then they added anti-abortion, anti-equality against gay marriage, etc. To the Republican voters the Republican Party is Godly, the Democrats are baby killing perverts. Itās simple. Nothing matters, there are no rules, anything goes because THEY are Godly, THEY are doing Gods work, because THEY are fighting the DemoncRats.

Ā @tspaulding3845Ā -- You are making a false assumption. If God blesses their party, and they are doing God's work, who is going to question anything? They see the evil, but as THEY are doing God's work, it's all good. God sanctioned everything, including the racist groups because THEY are doing Gods work against evil. If God deems those groups worthy, it is unquestioned. "God works with flawed people to accomplish his will" is something said about Trump all the time to excuse his behavior. And even if say any one of those groups, or Trump did something completely illegal, God sanctioned it as God blessed it knowing it was Trump he put in power. There are no questions, the circular logic is insane. Seriously, you should meet my MAGA relatives, nothing matters but doing God's will, period. End of story, nothing else matters. Racist? "God separated the people at the destruction of the Tower of Babel, he changed their language and appearance so that they could not recognize or speak to one another. WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ASSOCIATE IN ANY WAY WITH PEOPLE WHO SPEAK DIFFERENT LANGUAGES OR HAVE A DIFFERENT SKIN COLOR." Therefore in their eyes, it's not Racism, it is God's law. Racism is biblical. And please don't try and debate with them, they absolutely wholeheartedly unconditionally believe this to be true. Almost all MAGA/Evangelical Christians will treat blacks and other races with respect as we are suppose to love our fellow man. However they are not supposed to associate with them in any way.

Trump is already saying "The Democrats provided no proof, no witnesses, no testimony, no facts, this is baseless, Democrats have NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING." And the nation hears his words and says "Yeah, poor trump being harassed by those horrible mean democrats!" And NO ONE IS RAISING THE FACT TRUMP BLOCKED ALL WITNESS TESTIMONY AND ALL WHITE HOUSE DOCUMENTS ON NATIONAL SECURITY GROUNDS. Canāt hear the conversation, canāt hear from the people who did, can read only the redacted transcripts they provided.
Welcome to America, where truth, law, and ethics are tossed out the window.

@UCHRK2Kxclw2fAwQ5trTFR-Q ā The LEFT?! Less is more when it comes to government IS the Democratic mantra. Letās look at Republican ACTIONS (meaning what you DID, not said as Republicans are liars), you just tried to manipulate and lie about COVID, turning a virus into a political weapon costing hundreds of thousands of lives. Republicans tried to destroy democracy by forcefully taking over the capital to reverse an election they lost. Republicans tried to overthrow the government, to turn it into a one party dictatorship, attempting to use the national guard then the US Military to support their rebellion (and would have succeeded had military and staff not intervened). And now Republicans are talking civil war. Think about the double standard here, Democrats are baby killers because they donāt want to take rights away that Republicans do, Dems try to save babies by allowing pregnant mothers options, medical, housing, educational and job protections and benefits ā Which have ALL BEEN FOUGHT TOOTH AND NAIL BY THE REPUBLICANS. Why? Because it would lessen their stance, lessen the Republican bases support if they made concessions. Meaning... ITāS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY, not saving babies. Add to that that the religious right wants a civil war... to RECREATE an event that killed more Americans than ALL other wars combined in our history. Republicans have restricted voting rights, are now fighting in Texas to ban books pertaining not just to subjects that children obviously should not read at a young age, but BOOKS LIKE āV IS FOR VENDETTA,ā because it offers a critical take on THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!!! Look at EVERYTHING the Republican Party supports and fights for! Force women to bear children, ban books, make it illegal to be LGBT, remove equal rights, strip AMERICAN Hispanics and other people of colors RIGHT TO VOTE Support suppression of all races other than white, promote and include KKK members, racist groups, white nationalists, and Proud Boys. Good God how delusional can you people be?! Seriously! Republicans ARE tyrants, they support fascism, racism, and a representative of absolutely everything anti-American to their core. Including their attempts to destroy America from within. The republican party in just for short years has become the party of liars, denial, deception, and are reprehensible in absolutely every sense of the word. That you can read a book that describes the Republican Party to a T, so triggered by it you want to ban the books, and comment here that itās about Democrats would be hilarious if you werenāt so serious. You SAY your American, yet try and destroy it. You SAY you are anti abortion, yet want to kill over 160 million people to achieve your goal. You preach a lie about election fraud, while actually committing electoral fraud on a massive scale. Under Trumpās presidency you have exposed your values your lack of integrity or character and honesty like no time other in United States our history. You employ Nazi tactics. You are now even trying to rewrite history. Want to see what a traitor looks like? Find a mirror.

Ā @adioidris5266Ā -- True, I am. What world do you live in where if someone attacks someone else, that person can't defend themselves? In all of our war entanglements those countries are still in existance, Germany, Japan, Iraq, Afghanistan, are all still the nations they were. America is far from perfect, but we are not what you think. We are people just like you, some wonderful, some good, some bad.

Ā @TuckFinn831Ā ā To you. Itās weird as it gets for me too, canāt imagine why someone would want to change their sex and appearance. Butā¦ Iām not them, Iām not their parents, and Iām not their doctors. Iāve only met 2 trans people in my life, one I couldnāt wait to get away from, the other I had a brief conversation with. She was rational, explained her reasons for doing it, and how much better it was for her to live her life in her terms, and how much happier she was now. She explained that it was a 7 year process, therapy, counseling, hormones, 3 years as living, dressing 24x7 was required before surgery, and then 3 surgeries over a couple of years to finalize everything. Im no expert, but I believed her, in her mind she had to do it, it had cost her family, jobs, friends, and so much more. Like many, I am against surgery and hormone therapy for childrenā¦ but I am not them, not involved in their care in any way. Andā¦ bottom line, when Jesus was questioned about the most important commandment, he responded āLove thy brother.ā I may not understand them, but itās not my place, YOURS or anyoneās place to make their lives more difficult than it already is. We are to treat them as our brothers and sisters, love them, and share the word of God with them. It is not our place to judge them, it is our place to minister to them.

Ā @Matthew-rz3ioĀ ā Missing a few facts here arenāt you? 1. Gas did reach just under $2/gallon DURING COVID BECAUSE WORLD WIDE PRODUCTION AND DEMAND DROPPED AS NO ONE WAS WORKING. Bidenās cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline did not affect production as it was not complete, but it did affect futures prices as investors speculated on the effects of the cancellation. As the country returned to work post-Covid, demand exceeded production causing prices to riseā¦ but returned to normal rates quickly. Understand? We are still energy independent as we still sell our excess oil to foreign countries, we still produce more that we need. Prices are still rising because oil companies like Exxon seek as much profit as possible. We buy oil from OPEC because we need it to meet production becauseā¦ wait for itā¦ American Countries can get a higher price if they sell to other countries. Exxon also engages in artificial shortages, routing oil tankers around the world to drive up the price of oil before the tankers return to the USA with the same oil they left the USA to deliver to the same USA ports just 2 months later. It is a shell game, a trick to increase profits, it is American Greed. 2. Putin was amassing troops along Ukraineās border while Trump was President, meaning the invasion was already planned. 3. Trumpās tariff war with China caused massive contract cancellations worldwide because of the ripple effect of supply and demand. Taiwan is building plants that will start meeting demand in 4-6 years for chips and other products. And while true that Biden has reduced the effects, some plants in China accepted other contracts from other countries. Want to know what China did when they realized the American businesses NEEDED these chips and for the next 4 years they had a monopoly? They raised their prices dramatically. 3. Food prices are affected by what exactly? Migrant labor which Trump decreased by his zero tolerance policy, and Covid, decreased production, rising fuel costs and getting a nation back to work which increased demand for food as restaurants reopened all contributed to food cost inflation. Trump and Biden together dumped whatā¦ 4 trillion into the economy during Covid which has the expected effect of raising inflation, work from home has increased and that means lower restaurant patronage.
You are Blaming Biden entirely, instead of Trump, Covid and Biden together. Did you even try to pay attention in economics class? Seriously, you are parroting Fox News talking points without using your brain.

Marty White & Maja Damarkā In their defense FOX News isnāt called Faux News for nothinā. š Sadly the days of journalistic integrity are gone. News stations skew the story perspective to fit their target audience. Thereās a world of difference between bias and a lie, or false news. Take Trumps senate impeachment trial, FOX story was that Trump was found innocent, not guilty, completely exonerated. Mainstream media said the senate said that the Republican Party had failed in its responsibility (sic). If you watched the Senate Trial they opened by not calling for witnesses because the presidents actions were not in question. Meaning Trump DID do what he was accused of, withholding aid to Ukraine to coerce them into āpublicly saying they were investigating Biden,ā (note, not investigate, just say they were) and he then did obstruct justice by ordering witnesses to not comply with the investigation. The issue the senate said was āif trumps offenses were impeachable offenses,ā which they decided they were not. So FOX outright lied, and CNN, NBC, etc., gave a biased opinion of the facts.
And Maja, a liberal or conservative guest shouting just makes that guest an idiot and a bully. Some people think their point is stronger if they say it louder, or repeat it. Trump is one of those people. Where are you located BTW? Because while American journalism is biased, French media is salacious and UK media is darn right vindictive, LOL!

Durwood Everett ā Yeah! I too wish he had been āa littleā more polite. But DUDE, he is a reporter, asking questions is what they do. Yes, he was a bit too persistent... but the President was also rude as hell in his handling the reporters questions. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, if you donāt recognize that this is just manipulation and an attempt to control the media, and you, youāre the simpleton here. What is next? Arresting a reporter for asking a question? Iām assuming that you are one of the Trump supporters, 62% of them, that FAVORS Trump ending free press in America. Yes, allowing the US government to CENSOR the news so you only hear what the POTUS wants you to. Think about the implications of this act. Not to mention the precedents in history should scare the everlivingcrap outta you. That itās being discussed, polls taken to ātestā voter response, should chill you to the bone.

Ā @raulandĀ ā You do know there are 3 diffās right? Front, center and rear. If you have all 4 wheels in mud and just a rear locking diff... wait for it... ALL POWER WOULD GO TO ONE OF YOUR FRONT WHEELS. Why? Because with an open diff, all power goes to the wheel with the LEAST resistance. So the wheel that looses traction first, as in spins, gets all the power. I have winched a few dozen dolts in Chevy pickups out of the mud because they, like you, had trucks with 4x4 printed on the sides. Doubt me, go play in the mud. Donāt get me wrong, locking rear diffās HELP, on roads in bad weather, especially if you are towing.
1
-
Ā @raulandĀ ā Well, youāre right, I did say no locking diffās. My bad. Thereās only 2 vehicles sold in the USA w lockers all around (to the best of my knowledge), Jeep Rubicon and Mercedes G-wagons. All others have some sort of lesser/cheaper setups. Even the highly regarded Toyota Off Road Pro versions use a (cheaper/not better) computer controlled braking system to fake 4x4. They work great in most mild situations, but if you get them stuck in muck or sand, they will give up the fight. Meaning the computer tries a few too many times, gets confused and just pukes. Youāll hear people commenting here on YouTube to tow truck operators āDonāt know whatās wrong, everything seemed O.K., but now itās like no power is going to the wheels.ā Thatās the system saying it āgot so confused, Iām sick!ā Restarting the car sometimes works, turning off traction control seems to resolve the issue too. You can buy locking diffās for a lot of vehicles aftermarket, but only two come stock.
This might help, Most RWD cars use open differentials, meaning power goes to the wheel with the least resistance. Get one wheel on ice, and youāre stuck. FWD cars ditto, but some just feed one front wheel all the time, the other wheel is essentially a trailer wheel that steers. The next step up are limited slip diffās which diverts power to the wheel w the most resistance. The best use locking diffās, and trust me, old school is better. Front and rear differentials direct power to the front or rear wheels, center diffās split the power between the front and rear diffās. In AWDās itās usually a 60/40 (60% rear/40% front) split. Better ones have a locking center diff which sends power to the front and rear diffās equally. AWD means power can be or is always going to all 4 wheels, but they are almost always allow plenty of slippage as they are driven on pavement. Most AWD systems also have open diffās so getting them stuck is easy too. Subaru uses viscous couplings to do the work of diffās, which I think operate as a kind of clutch system that automate icky uses the pressure of the spinning wheel to divert power. I used to be skeptical of Subaruās system, but thereās a ton of YouTube vids that show them in action... and it is impressive to watch. The newer method of faux 4x4 is CCB, computer controlled braking already mentioned. Good for most street conditions, but not ātrueā 4x4.

Ā @dklein8207Ā ā It just that Iāve helped pull several dozen Fords, GMCās/Chevyās and Rams out of the mud, ice or snow. They are intended to help with traction on city streets, in mild conditions, and can be a great assist when towing. The Chevy website just says auto-trac or something like that. Not doubting you, just saying that without a center differential locker your power is going to go to the front or rear wheels with the least traction. So if they have a front locker (very extremely rare) and a rear locker, if the front or back wheels break free, youāre stuck in the mud because the center diff is going to send all of the power to the wheels without traction. And bud, Iāve been going off-roading for 45 years now, owned a few rigs, gone on several trips every year, and helped the people in their street vehicles get on their way more times than I can count. People see 4x4 on the side and think my pickup can do anything... not understanding their own trucks systems. As of 2019. The ONLY two vehicle lines sold with true 4x4 systems, with locking front, center and rear diffs were 1. Jeep Rubicon models, and 2. Mercedes G-500 series wagons. Overseas there are a few others like MAN trucks and whatever, but they arenāt sold in the USA. Doubt me, google it. Everything else sold stock in the USA does not have front center and rear lockers. And donāt misunderstand me, Chevy ZR whateverās may have locking rear diffs. Great when towing. Not good in mud, sand or ice and snow. Better than nothing, but not a āseriousā off-road machine. Sorry.

Jamar Herrod ā LMAO! Yes, born in America. Yes, I know the southern states were built on slavery. Let me... simplify this for you. Every black person in the USA gets a check for what? $10k? Thatās not enough to change a life. $100k? A million? What? Have you studied what happens to most lottery winners? What happens when the kids want their share, but their parents spent it? Do we repeat it, and if yes, for how many generations? How does a one time payment resolve the issue of inequality? How does it raise them up? What I am asking is if we redesigned our education system to help children realize that education matters, and promise them if they WANT to go to college, they CAN! My point is simple, give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Show a man how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime. Is giving out checks the answer? Will it actually help? Wouldnāt educational assistance and job assistance help to create a SUSTAINED change? Yes, I know. Youāre angry, we would all love a nice check. But why take a $10k check today that will help you out this year, over a $250,000 education that will improve your life and your childrenās lives forever?

Ā @joeyamaoyaji8835Ā ā That was NOT my intent, LOL! I was merely trying to be honest and accurate. Biden does deserve a small bit of blame, his cancelling the Keystone Oil Pipeline and a massive reduction of freaking (yes, I know the term, but it keeps auto deleting my comment, not sure why.) (Biden blocked freaking on public lands), and while it had no immediate, real effect, it did affect oil futures, which affects market prices, which has affected our gas pump prices. Yes, I know the price jump is all due to āmarket confidence,ā it has had a negative effect on everyoneās gas expenses. Please note, Iām not an expert on oil, or freaking, I have a lot of noob questions... but the short term effects I do know. My point is, Iām NOT saying the moves were good or bad moves from an ecological perspective, Iām just saying I donāt know.

With respect to you both, no. Just NO. My Range Rover needed 1 transmission repair and 2 replacements in the first 2 years an was going to need a 3rd when I sold it at almost 3 years and 47k miles. A transmission that lasts 15,000 miles is crap, and thatās not counting the alternator, the two water pump issues, and about 22 miscellaneous electrical issues like windows that would work one day and be dead the next, then work again for a few days. Had to have it towed three times in 3 years, yet people still think itās a capable machine. I get it, I do... excellent on and off road, handled great in all conditions, just need to follow it with a support vehicle. Yāall passed crazy and have entered the full-tilt Bozo realm.
1
-
Ā @peopleschamp7258Ā ā I purchased new, and yes the warranty covered all of the repairs. But you guys sound like itās a rare thing, in my trips to their service department while waiting with other owners and I talked to quite a few. They all loved their cars, why are you here Iād ask, oh alternator, some electrical issue, or transmission issues, but thatās normal, itās a great car. No. It is not normal! I use my vehicle for work, when itās down warranty is irrelevant as I burn half a day dropping it off or getting it towed, then another half day returning the rental car, and getting a ride to the dealership to pick up my car. I have never, ever, had a car that had so much downtime in my life.
1
-
1
-
Ā @peopleschamp7258Ā ā I disagree, not a statistical anomaly. The number of people with similar issues proves my concerns valid. Odd that you mention the Toyota TCS, I know a few times we have run across a Toyota whose computer gave up the ghost soātoāspeak, encounters either too much data or hits a wall and shuts down. They had to turn traction control OFF, restart, then turn it on again to drive out w winch help. The symptoms are no power seems to be getting to the wheels, like the transmission is OOS or locked up, but it isnāt. But also, as you reference no car manufacturer is perfect. However if you look at the JD initial quality ratings, the number of warranty repairs (tracked for example by consumer reports) and the number of lemon law (USA, varies by state, 7 non-related major repairs in one year and you can force the manufacturer to replace the vehicle) returns of any manufacturer. Toyotaās reputation is earned.

Greg Kittle ā Dude, yes, they can "call them 4x4's" but that doesnāt make them one. They all HAVE a center differential, or power wouldnāt be directed to all 4 wheels. Period. However... an open center differential is EXACTLY like an open differential in the rear wheels of your car, get one wheel on ice, youāre stuck, all power does to the one wheel with no resistance. You can get out with it in gear, walk around the car and watch the power go nowhere. You must have some play, otherwise itās hard as hell on your tires, and transmission on pavement. The next best solution is a limited slip diff, it directs power to the wheel with the MOST resistance, so one wheel slips, power diverts. The third best are the newer, cheaper systems that use open diffās, but computer controls the antilock brakes to faux force the power to the wheel with grip. Sounds great, but they are slower, hard on your brakes, and they can get confused and shut down. Most traction control systems use this method. MOST 4x4's have some combo of these. But having a locking front, and a locking rear WITHOUT A LOCKING CENTER DIFFERENTIAL IS FREAKING DUMB! That makes it a barely effective two wheel drive, not a 4x4. There are only 2 sold in the USA, 3 worldwide that have locking front, center and rear diffās, the Jeep Rubicon and the Mercedes G-Wagon. Overseas there is an INVECO truck, not sold here. Buy this machine, great machine, but DO NOT TAKE IT OFF ROAD! It is NOT a 4x4! Not joking, do your own homework from this point on you dolt.
1
-
Tyler Anderson ā Dude, Read my previous response. No. Just because itās says 4x4, does not make it so. It just means power can be delivered to all 4 wheels, not evenly, not smartly (AWD) and they do work great on ROADS. Go on ice, snow, mud, youāre stuck. I repeat, how do I know? Because Iāve rescued many, many dozens of bozo simpletons who tried, got stuck, and one of my neighbors calls me and says "Hey, we got another one..." Do either of these have a locking center diff? I donāt know, but I doubt it or they would have SAID SO because it is a big, BIG deal.

Ā @SergeyMilitaryRankingsĀ ā I never said I was understanding, I said we need to wait for the facts, a fair trial. Then, if a death sentence is levied, so be it. There are absolutely war crimes committed on all sides, even by U.S. soldiers. Justice and maintaining discipline absolutely matters. If guilty, I hope he is prosecuted with extreme prejudice. I see another post that says his 7 other fellow snipers say he was a nut job, which in my opinion means if his peers felt he was off the rails, he was certifiably insane. Your fellow soldiers consider it their honor to not rat out or disparage a member of their team, that all 7 said something negativeā¦ thatās a jury right there. Oh, and youāre right, Lady GaGa is hot. š

Ā @WedidLandONtheMOONĀ ā How do you modify a gun to only fire blanks? All I know from my low budget experience is we used real guns, but with blanks. We (the armorer) brought the gun, the blanks, laid them out on a table or chair, and loaded them in full view of the actors. Yes, it took about a minute. And there was a safety guy, well a stunt guy who had the function, and he had a list of weapons used in a shot, and several times he would yell āHOLD!ā because he felt he missed one on his check list, call out an actors name and either confirm the load by whomever watched it, or unload it and reload it with people watching.

@WildLifePrepper ā What exactly has Biden done? Seriously. Name an issue and it traces back to Trump, his lies are so pervasive you canāt even see the truth. His lies and politicalization of Covid started a spiral, watch His interview w Bob Woodward. His tariff war with China has negatively impacted the entire worlds economy, they estimate 2 years until Taiwanās first new chip factory can start production, six years until Taiwan can match the output of what China has cut. And Trump used two foreign countries to influence an election, funded the Russian firm that broke into Hillaryās e-mail servers, then shouted āLOCK HER UP!ā point fingers at her when it was all HIM. Trump tried to win the election be any evil way possible, sowing doubt a year before the election, before the first vote, claiming Dems cheated when he actually WAS. Trump tried to take over the nation and overthrow a valid election by setting up a war room a week before 1/6 (shows planning), urging his Trumpets to attack the capital, tried to use the national guard then the US military on USAās soil, against American citizens to overthrow the election. And you dolts still believe Trumps lies. So yes, Trump IS a TERRORIST.

Ā @hueyxz1121Ā ā I think you are not understanding the facts. The Climate is changing, it is getting warmer, that is proven by over 50 years of receding glaciers and mountain snow caps. The issue, and why naysayers like you are denying climate change is over the question of āNATURALā or āMAN MADEā. Itās not about questioning climate change, itās about questioning the cause. Letās be clear, the cause is irrelevant, we either adapt or die. Me, Iād like to see a world where my great grand kids are alive and well, and leading great, rich, productive lives. If you want to be scared, read the governments ācontingency plansā for global warming if it continues to change. 1. As the water rises, low costal areas, and much of the Midwest is expected to be under water. Almost All of Texas is less than 500ā over sea level. 2. People from lower Central America, coastal areas, and low areas in the Midwest will begin to relocate to higher ground taxing infrastructure, food, and public services. 3. As it continues, America could lose its bread basket farmlands in the Midwest, massive numbers will be fleeing the lowlands and seeking higher ground. 4. Infrastructure failure, no electricity, food, water or sewer services. Influx of an estimated 3 million people per month trying to get into the USA.
If you think 3,000 people caused a panic rushing the boarder, think about 3 million.

Ā @robbiehollywood1937Ā ā 1. Trump WAS President, past tense. 2. Trump could have ārequestedā classified documents to be declassified, but DID NOT DO SO WHILE PRESIDENT. Had he done so, there would be a paper trail, even if denied. 3. Pence, Biden and Hillary had classified documents too, but THEY ALL COMPLIED with the FBI to return them, they notified the FBI when they were found. 4. Trump tried to keep them, he lied, had his attorney lie, jerked around the FBI for over a year before they searched. Thatās why the term āWILLFUL RETENTIONā is used, why Trump committed a crime. 5. There have been 3 known foreign agents at Mar a Lago, and there are still missing classified documents. Trump isnāt just looking a document crimes, or lying to investigators charges, Trump may face espionage charges. THAT IS WHY THIS IS SERIOUS!

Actually, no. Look at airplane accident deaths. Each individual is essentially assessed a value, based on their projected lifetime earnings, and add personal information like kids, etc., to compensate the family for their loss of a parent. A 50 year old car mechanic might have earned with say 15 years to work might have earned 350k, no kids, thatās their offer. A 35 year old lawyer making 250k annually on his way to a clients meeting might get an offer of 10 million. This is why they are asking for the childrenās transcripts. If Bobby was killed, and he was a C student with poor college and minimal earning potential, he going to get much less than say Susan, the class valedictorian.

Ā @kevinc.8926Ā ā Everything you said is wrong on so many levels. You are making a boatload of assumptions based on one simple comment. I am a Republican, a Christian, my family and I are vaccinated, done really care about the politics of the vaccinations, just that it helps reduce the spread, so we did it. All of these Trumpets spouting crap, all supposition, when there have been no statements from the airline stating staff shortages due to any assumed vaccination mandate. And by that I mean Southwest Airlines is based in Texas, which has zero mask mandates by law, and so therefore the company would have no mask mandates unless the pilot/crew were based in another state and THAT state had a mask mandate. Not to mention, why are you politicizing a virus? Seriously dude, give it a rest.

My relatives believe Trump was appointed by God to save the nation, ALL acts, lies, crimes etc., are sanctioned by God as Trump and the Republicans are doing Gods work. Think about thatā¦ NOTHING MATTERS but Trump and the Republicans work to continue, all other priorities rescinded, all ālies, crimes, any means necessary are sanctioned by God.ā To them, we are ungodly, so therefore wrong on every point.

Ā @Video_FiendĀ ā I get your point, quite ironic, but their original comment got their account deleted. Iāve slept since then, and donāt remember the specifics, just that it was horrendous. Oh, and youāre making a few false assumptions; 1. I am a Republican, albeit not a Trumpet. 2. I am a Christian and not anti-theistic. Donāt take my defense of any subgroup as anything less than an expression of trying (my entire life) to leave judgement to God, and supporting, loving, everyone for the human they are. I donāt believe that love thy brother was a suggestion. And 99% of what they are now calling āQueer Contentā in schools are antibullying efforts, and mental awareness related. Their goal is to reduce suicides, by reducing bullying, and providing materials that help them to understand themselves. I donāt get it, not my thing, but that doesnāt make them less American, less human, or lesser Gods creations. Iām guessing you are like my brother who says āit doesnāt matter,ā but it in fact does.

Ā @Video_FiendĀ ā We are in agreement on those types of books, explicit books should not be allowed. What I was talking about was the books like āItās okay to be different.ā That essentially say there are different people, some straight, some not, you are not alone. Those books might save a life. We will have to agree to disagree on your other points. You and many others canāt differentiate between the sin and the child of God. You see a lost human, unredeemable, evil. I see a child of God, that we are suppose to reach out to, share Christ with, and love. Thatās not an endorsement of their lifestyle, itās a recognition of who they are, which is just like you and I. I may need to reread the comment you are referring to. I believe God gave us free will, to believe or not, to sin or not. Forcing others to adhere to our beliefs will backfire. I also believe that separation of church and state is a good thing. I have zero issues with any school posting the Ten Commandments anywhere, but I do with requiring it. Americaās freedoms of religion is a two edged sword, it also means freedom from religion. Our right to worship as we please begins and ends with our allowing others to do the same.
1
-
Ā @Video_FiendĀ ā I was speaking for myself, not trying to put any words in your mouth. I attend a few churches, the one with my relatives is a Bible church and very supportive of Trump and what I would term hate based in the sense they focus on calling out others sin, putting them down, saying they are not welcome in their church. The other churches I attend point out the sin, and add that they too are children of God, can be saved, and that it is our mission as Christians. And no, they donāt support LGBT anything, but do reinforce that they, like us, are all Gods creations.

Balarion - 1. Whatās M4A?
2. He fired a black police officer because he was informed of officer complaints to HR that the chief was listening to recordings of their radio chatter directly instead of utilizing HR per policy exposing the city to a privacy lawsuit by the union or officers. He called the Chief in for a meeting, but said āthe conversation degraded and the chief became insubordinate,ā so he fired him. Later he said he could have handled the situation better, but at the time but tempers were raised and he over-reacted. How do you not know this? Iām guessing you do, but object to a white person firing a black person, and donāt see your perspective as racist in the least. The chief was absolutely correct, the department was rife with racism, and there were apparent ties or input from Buttigiegās supporters. The important thing is that the chief was not fired because he was black, he was fired for insubordination. He was not fired for trying to root out racism, he was called in to discuss his violation of city policy and the conversation did not go well. Buttigieg also stated that at the time multiple captains had all complained about the chiefs performance, and at the time he did not know that their issues with him may have been racially motivated. In the cities defense when they were sued, the city gave multiple incidents of the chief ordering cases dropped, arrested gang members released without charges, etc., all of which are prosecutors decisions and not a police chiefās.
3. I didnāt call you an immigrant, I meant we are all descendants of immigrants. I get your point, your relatives may have not come here by choice. I assume you know that there were black slave traders, black slave owners too, and that while the vast majority were black, there were slaves of many races, including the Irish (whites). It was a weird and horrible period in our history. I meant no offense, but I didnāt take into account that even though we are a nation of immigrants, slaves were involuntary ones.

-
Balarion ā You said the chief was fired for trying to root out racism in the department, which is not factual, so I assumed bias. My bad.
Edit. Iām not a racist, I firmly believe that race is irrelevant. Iām not an apologist either, I was raised in Watts Los Angeles. I know inequality and racism still exist, and that we are not all equal yet, but try and work towards that goal. But I also feel itās important to realize that no one today was ever enslaved, no one today is responsible for what happened 200 years ago many generations back. We can change the past, we can only control what we do next, now, today. We canāt grow and overcome todayās issues if we canāt work together and put the past behind us. Not forget the past, just realize that the past is not what shapes us, itās what we do today, now that does.
Edit 2: Medicare for all isnāt a bad thing. The goal for insurance is all pay a little so those that need it arenāt burdened with major expenses. The more that pay in, the lower the cost for everyone. I know M4A seems socialist, but itās not, itās humane. People think it would endanger and overburden the system, when in actuality if people had preventative care there would be less major issues.

Ā SFPĀ Fraud? I get what you and the others are saying, but the postmaster sounds like he was just trying to do the right thing and give the ballots the benefit of the doubt. Should he be suspended, demoted or fired, probably. Let me guess what all of your logic is... big city, mostly Democrat probably, so THOSE votes should not be counted. But you guys are wanting to put this guy in prison for 20 years because he tried to give a VOTE the benefit of the doubt? Hereās a different side... we got back from a week long deployment tired and dirty, an officer meets us asks who here hasnāt voted? Come with me. We vote, someone asks but itās the 4th, almost the 5th... and the officer gets in his face and calmly says Today is whatever Fāing day I say it is. We say Yes Sir, and leave. Should that officer or us be in Prison, or everyone? Isnāt it more important that every vote be counted... wait... donāt answer, I already know your answer.

You have to admire DARPAā¦
We need a nuke we can shoot from a tank. Give us a weekā¦ one week later here ya go, tell us if you want to actually make it. (They did)
We need a sniper rifle .50 cal. that will automatically correct for target movement. Here ya go.
We need a remote controlled plane, almost silent, that can deliver it payload from miles up with deadly precision. How about this drone? How many would you like.
We need a mini tank, all terrain, including water, that can have automated .50 cal rapid fire gun that can go super fast. Hereās plans, the base exists, gun mounts would be a minor thing, hereās the plans, is 85mph in 8 seconds, able to turn on a dime fast enough?
Weād like the most guns we can possibly put on a plane, able to destroy anything, like a whole city in one pass, that will be able to rain rounds of multiple caliber on an enemy. One year later, here ya go, will this work?
Hats off to whomever approved DARPA, they were geniuses of epic caliber.

Ā @RichardLewisCaldwellĀ ā I believe the judge knew that with that amount, it would cost more than it was worth to proceed. The judges tone seemed compassionate, but the lawyers I spoke to all advised me to drop it and move on. I like your enthusiasm, but at that time, Iād already spent almost $3k in travel, hotels and legal fees, and when I learned what it would cost to take the case furtherā¦ I was just emotionally crushed. And I thought I was very convincing, brought a listing of my rental properties, quicken reports showing every expense and payment received for years. Itās easy to think you can Sue to get your money back, but you canāt. Not joking, the burden of proof was entirely on me, it was the literal reverse of how you might think this would work. What irks me most was the hubris, they KNOW what they were doing, and knew everything they needed to do to keep the funds.

Travis Bickle ā Yes, I do. The information comes from Trumps own legal firms cases over the last decade and from the GOP opposition papers on trump that they published in 2012. Doubt me, google it. The reason I feel Trump is a lying, adulterous, murderous thief is because his own legal document show 5 abortions, 73 affairs, over 3000 lawsuits (class actions are grouped) that show over 30,000 people sued him for failed investments and purchases of trump projects that failed, ranging from trump university to buildings, retirement communities, etc. the legal papers also show litigation against companies that had his wifeās former model escort web pages available. We, myself included, were lied to and manipulated into voting for a man we thought was a Christian. How can a party that was once linked to the evangelical religious right support a man with absolutely zero values they once held? How on earth do you justify supporting trump? Seriously, HOW?!

This is crap! I have a condo I purchased to move into. A woman who prostituted herself to a carpenter and knew the unit was unoccupied broke in and the first thing she did was change my locks. When I called the police it was clear she had done this before, immediately she held up the keys and said I have the key, Iām here with permission, you canāt evict me you have to give me a 3 day notice then file eviction with the city, then thereās a trial, and then I have 30 days to appeal. When I got entry to the unit with the police standing beside me as I drilled the locks out, I find thousands of my tools are missing, drills, saws, table saw, tile saw, ladders, all gone. I file eviction papers w the city and am told the courts are closed it will be 60-120 days. And my shed in back broken into pieces. But she did nothing, didnāt take a thing, promises the police to move. Two weeks later, situation repeats, I try and enter, she calls police and instead of moving she has furniture now, and more of my stuff is missing, furniture dolly, mag liner hand truck, etc. A few weeks later, again, Iām moving... but when I enter she now had a room mate to help pay her expenses. Keep in mind no lease, unit doesnāt even have a kitchen, thatās what Iām trying to do, fix it up and move in. But she wonāt let the installers in, me or anyone because SHE has squatter rights. The police are powerless, itās a civil court matter. But the courts are closed for the indefinite future.

What exactly should he be impeached for? You know the star Republican bombshell witness that testifiedā s WORST most damning testimony was āHunter called his dad in the presence of Chinese business people and had a very brief conversation lasting under 45 seconds, where he said hello, listened, said I understand, said āI love you too dad,ā and they hung up. I agree, Hunter is a loser, and their contacts and money scare me, but without detailed proof, what would you indict him for? Not trolling, Iād love to know!

Your information is incorrect. If you have a wired or cellular internet connection, your IP traffic is being hovered up. If you are just routing your unencrypted traffic to a "secure" service it does nothing UNLESS you have an app encrypting your data before it leaves your computer. I work for a cellular carrier, every voice circuit, including voicemail, and your data traffic goes through the governments servers on its way to and from its destination. The data is hovered, and in most cases ignored... unless it flags pre-existing conditions, and unless a law enforcement organization ASKS for the data. Then and only then is it analyzed and forwarded to LEO's. Please note the phrasing of this, because for example if you committed a crime in July, and in December the information is requested, then ALL conversations retroactive to their search parameters are available to them. So if you discussed, chatted or emailed the crime in June, THAT incriminating conversation will be available. The amount of data is MASSIVE. If your name is on your IP account or service, they can retroactively access it and use it against you. If you are like me, I do not care what they hear as I am not a criminal, great. If you have secrets, you need to be aware of this.

Ā @KB-sv7fmĀ ā All I know is that for identical items, case of water, milk, chicken, etc., Samās is almost always lower than CostCo. I flip houses and have taken faucets, lighting fixtures, etc., back to CostCo because Samās had them for much less. I love them both, CostCo people are much more helpful, Samās has signs so if youāre looking for soup you can find it, CostCo makes you hunt on purpose. And the little things, like CostCo mens Kirkland T-Shirts are excellent, Samās suck. LOL!

You have to hand it to Trump! He is a genius! He has made all of his supporters to doubt the mail in voting system, he told his supporters they can vote twice (mail and in person) which is a felony, he inserted āhis loyal supporterā in charge of the USPS whoās first job was to slow things down and generally muck up the works, then he got the SCOTUS to rule a change in the law that changed the votes to be counted if they were postmarked by NOV 2, or they must be RECEIVED by November 2nd. Then he stacks the SCOTUS so that his new Republican loyalist judges are a majority that support Him, Trump.
Summary, Republicans urged to vote in person or twice, knowing that if they do it will be discovered after Trumps elected. He knows Democrats use mail in voting, gets the law changed to work in his favor so votes not DELIVERED in time, the post office is crippled to help him, and the SCOTUS is behind him. So if he wins, his fraud will be decided after he is elected. If he loses, he declares it a fraud, it goes to the SCOTUS and they are loyal to Trump, so he wins. He has covered every possible argument or position. Trump will be the next president and we, the people, have no choice in the matter.

Reaver Bode ā I havenāt heard of the land takeover theory, interesting. And youāve just stated some facts out of context. Have thousands of scientists denied human involvement and responsibility, yes. I believe it something like 7%, over 90% agree. The question isnāt āis global warming realā that is provable in several decades of satellite photos showing snow/ice loss all over the world. What is in question is if those changes are man made or natural, and if (a great big IF) the water levels rising to what they project. Think if it this way, you can see a huge storm on the horizon, smell it, see the lightning getting closer...do you deny it or take cover? We have a choice, whichever side of global warming you are on, do nothing or try and prepare. There is the āpotentialā for this to be an extinction level event, we can adapt or face the consequences.

Reaver Bode ā Iām lost why you wanted me to read that article from 2012, it clarifies what I said, and is 8 years old. āGlobal warming can be observed since the 1900āsā O.K., so we can all see a trend. āScientists are of mixed opinion as to if the phenomenon is natural or man made,ā then states ā80-90% believe man is having an adverse effect.ā
Summary, probably real with a 98% probability, man made is debatable with as few as 80% of scientists saying it may be due to mankind. Will it be as bad as projected? Who the heck knows? AGAIN, failure to plan could mean failure to survive. You are literally standing on train tracks posting snippets nearly a decade old saying false alarm. Stepping off the tracks (ADAPTING) is just smart, staying on the tracks is lunacy. The earth is warming, forget the āwhy is itā issues. The only thing that matters is we try, we plan to adapt. Because failure means possible albeit remote, extinction.

Reaver Bode ā āA 2012 study shows only 25% of scientists believed humans were the cause of climate change.ā AGAIN, FORGET BLAME, FORGET CAUSE! The issue is we deny and face the consequences which include potential extinction, OR we adapt and plan to lessen mans footprint on the earth, and plan to adapt to the changing conditions. Itās like you are standing on a hill and a landslide is bearing down on you and YOU are standing there saying, itās a hoax, landslides have happened before, it could be natural, it could be man made... we donāt need to do anything. Change is happening, you can see the time lapse over 50 years of satellite pictures of glaciers and hundred years of temperature tracking. And you are lost on the āoh, itās happened before... no biggieā argument. How is it you have the brain of a human but the survival instincts of an ostrich?

Reaver Bode ā Yes, some survived and many died. Watch this please... https://youtu.be/pIxRVfCpA64 While just a projection, the impacts are scary. If you want to read something really scary look up the USAās contingency report on their plans. Initial coastal areas impacted, forcing millions inland stressing infrastructure and food supply lines. The second phase is much of the Midwest underwater if water rises about 50ā, This means food shortages, and much higher consolidation of people in massive numbers as people flee other countries for anywhere they have a chance of survival. Think 3000 people storming our southern border with Mexico caused a panic? Imagine 30,000,000! USA has plans to ādefend Americaā and you donāt want to know how. Also imagine how life might be if the US population were consolidated from a fifty foot sea level increase, power grids threatened, food supplies reduced or lost, infrastructure failures... we are talking about what disaster movies are made of in real life. Will it happen? I donāt know. But I do know we are idiots and deserve to be extinct if we donāt at least try to survive, plan to delay the inevitable, plan to adapt.

Sparky War ā True, All Lives Matter, but thatās also a racist statement that belittles and dilutes the BLM issue. A video I watched changed my mind as I had used that same statement myself. Two women standing in their front yards watching a black house burning down the street. How horrible! one says. One woman says letās go help, the other says you go, Iām staying here to watch my house from catching on fire. The first one says to the other āBut your White House isnāt on fire, the black house is on fire NOW! Letās go help!ā āBut my house could catch on fire too, all houses matter.ā The second woman says. The first responds as she walks away āYour White House is not on fire, THE BLACK HOUSE IS ON FIRE!ā The second woman responds All Houses Matter, you go on, Iām going to stay here.ā Any student of history knows that what happens to the least of us (minority of the population) will or can happen to the rest of us. Thatās why Black Lives do Matter, because once they are marginalized, then the Hispanics, then all brown people, then one day... whites. But by that time no one will be able to help us because we stood up for no one, only we are left to fall, alone.

Sparky War ā Masks donāt work because 30% of the population refuses to wear them. Masks are only a preventative measure, they donāt prevent contagion on their own, they just reduce the chances of infection. Thatās why they suggest we wash or disinfect our hands as often as possible... to reduce the risk of infection.
I also see you disagree with government mandating the wearing of masks. I completely agree with you, the government should not have to mandate it! But why is it necessary? Because some 30% refuse to, rallies and churches are full of unmasked people. Trumps Tulsa rally of 8000 people resulted in over 400 Covid infections and 2 deaths, one was a Republican Senator. Which if you take the 2 week incubation rate into the equation and the infection rate, in just one month you have a potential of 3,000,000 infections, which could have caused roughly 15,000 deaths just from one single Trump rally. My point... if you donāt mandate the wearing of masks, people donāt, which results in many many more infections and more deaths. So why is passing mask laws necessary? Because stupid calloused uncaring illogical people, mostly Trumpets refuse to wear them which costs lives.
Did you watch the RNC? Not a mask in site. When a trump advisor was asked about that he replied āWeāre all going to get it anyway, so what? We will just develop and pass on herd immunity sooner.ā First, thatās NOT how herd immunity works, it works by reducing the uninflected (death or survival from infection) which reduces cases. You cannot pass on immunity except through vaccinations. Second, herd immunity with 319,000,000 people in the USA means roughly 2,000,000 dead from the virus. Yes, Trump is O.K. with TWO MILLION PEOPKE DEAD! Are you? Because without a vaccine THIS could happen!

Ā Cliff YablonskiĀ -- EVERYTHING was already known! There were newspaper articles, cellular industry articles, all carriers were involved (This mentions Verizon but I work for AT&T), we all knew. It wasn't even a secret. We had no clue it was even a secret. All circuits were routed through their equipment, and it was archived (buffered) for transfer to the DHS servers. The only harm was you, John Q. Public found out. And if it was news to you, it's just because you didn't read newspapers or watch the news. It was a SERIOUSLY BIG PROJECT. While yes... there 'may' have been top secret information stolen, but this... that the Department of Homeland Security was recording all calls, all SMS messages, and ss7 call data (GPS data, cell site, call setup info, etc.) was all known for years before Snowden surfaced.

Ā Jing BotĀ ā Not what happened. The guy trespassed on his property and was found to be armed. He had a concealed weapon, it didnāt say if he was a CHL holder. I get your point, and you are correct, if you see someone in your backyard anyone is going to assume a threat and question him. Iām not saying the guy wasnāt crazy, or an idiot, or that being in anyoneās backyard is acceptable. Iām just saying a gun alone is not a crime, having a gun does not equal intent to use it. Was the guy trespassing, yes. Arrest him and sort it out at his trial. Seriously, whatās next? The man had a belt and was āobviouslyā there to strangle the governor? Iām not even saying that the guy wasnāt planning on using it, just saying that jumping to that conclusion without facts or evidence is insanity. TYT ASSUMING that because the guy was armed, he was a threat, that 24 rounds was āarmed to the teeth,ā thatās silliness. Does a pocketknife in your pocket make you a threat? No, but an open pocketknife in your hand absolutely would.

Joe Blow ā Not sure what you meant by that. Our world is getting warmer, the once permanent ice flows are indeed melting. Is it humans causing it? That is unknown but assumed. Iām guessing youāre a trumpet, a climate change denier. Think of it this way, true, false, cause unknown, doesnāt matter. If this visible verifiable change is not actually happening, we can take action and help prepare or prevent or do nothing, and life goes on. If it worsens, and we are prepared or can prevent it, our children survive. If it worsens and we continue our denial, and do nothing, it could be an extinction level event. Think about that please. Deny it, do nothing, die... or take precautions and survive. The choice is ours.

Ā @D4L_457Ā ā āThe Churchā doesnāt just vote for Trump, ever since Reagan met personally with the nations top 1000 evangelical leaders, they have been bonded at the hip, when Bush Jr. was saved on national TV, then Clintonās indiscretion in the White House, then Obamaās speaking in favor of marriage equality, then Trump moving the embassy to Israel, then Trump stacking SCOTUS and instrumental in overturning Roe vs. Wadeā¦ they are wedded for life. My pastor screams from the pulpit āIf you consider yourself a Christian, you WILL vote Republican, OR YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN!ā People donāt understand why Trump is bulletproof to his followers, it is because of faith. Nothing matters but God, and Republicans believe themselves to be Godly and DemoncRats to be baby killing sexual deviants.

Yeah, keep thinking that when people start dying and your coffee goes to $20 a cup. He has ordered a block of all news and information from all agencies about bird flu, massive chicken š culling in progress, but farms canāt find out how to test, where itās progressed, how many humans have been infected, nuthinā. So eggs, milk, cheese, everything either goes up, and less people buying because we donāt know itās safe to consume because of the reporting blackout.

Ahh, I LOVE ā¤ļø IT! Trump found out in May-July of 2020 that he was facing a tough election, since 16 states restricting faithless electorate voters from changing their votes, their chances of an electoral college win like in 2016 was greatly reduced. When Trump learned his chances, be began setting the stage, speaking out repeatedly that āThe only way he could lose is if the Demās cheat and steal the election.ā Trump repeated this lie over and over until his Trumpets believed it, claiming Dems were committing election fraud, all the while ACTUALLY committing electing fraud. Trump tried to use the national guard and the US military to SUPPORT the January 6th rioters attempting to overthrow a valid election. We came so close to overthrowing the US government and destroying our democracy itās scary. Whatās also scary is people like you continuing to support Trump! FOX and NewsMax, which have been sued many times for falsehoods, and successfully fighting the lawsuits on free speech grounds and saying āWE ARE NOT NEWS, WE ARE ENTERTAINMENT,ā continue to spread lies and misinformation. āBiden is destroying the nation!ā But do so without facts, just assertions.
Hate to break this to you, TRUTH, HONESTY, INTEGRITY, SERVICE AND HONOR MATTER!

IronCurtainPrepper ā US Terrorists? Seriously? While we have been zealous about protecting ourselves, "we" are not the terrorists. Why would you even think that? And Japan during WW2 was a formidable foe with incredible national pride. Ask yourself which is better a) A prolonged battle against an enemy that had no concept of surrender that would have cost millions of lives, or b) Bomb a city or two where their military support comes from, ending the war decisively costing a hundred thousand lives? They did projections, and Japan would have never surrendered, a drastic step was needed. Horrible as it was, it saved a million lives on both sides. And dude, Japan has recovered, we did not butcher them, occupy them, or enslave them. Japan is still an independent nation. Do you REALLY think that Japan or Germany would have done that had they won? Have you studied what Germany did to Poland? Holy hell, that was a genocide. And, assuming that youāre either Russian or of Russian decent, Russia invaded Denmark, Finland and Norway, neutral countries in an aggressive expansion effort. My family is Norwegian and their stories of Russian occupation are a whole new level of merciless, bone chilling horror. Had America not dropped the bomb on Japan, which was also a message to Russian aggression, do you really think Russia would have stopped fighting or conceded Norwayās, Finlandās (partial) and Denmarkās Land back? Historians seem to agree that the USA dropping the bomb on Japan made the Russians stop and reassess their position. Do you think Germany would still be Germany, or Austria, or France, or England themselves had Russia NOT stopped? There was zero indication of their quitting. Given Russiaās history, calling the USA terrorists seems like a compliment coming from a Russian. Open a history book, and read about āthe iron curtainā LOL! You will never look at Russia the same again, and you will never call America terrorists again either.

I flip houses, and have rental properties. I noticed a trend after a few years of issues, Samsung fights every warranty repair tooth and nail, denying warranty claims for any possible reason. āWe need the original receipt,ā āWe show Home Depot/Best Buy/Samās club/CostCo as the original purchaser, not you.ā When you replace or repair your umpteenth TV, refrigerator, dishwasher, stove, whatever appliance inside the warranty period at your expense, and the only common denominator is Samsungā¦ you get seriously pissed. AVOID SAMSUNG PRODUCTS AS IF THEY ARE RADIOACTIVE ā¢ļø!!!

If youāre interested in facts, every single one of Trumps lawsuits have been dismissed or lost save one. The one win was in a county that had poll watchers behind glass to prevent them from interfering, when the county law said they had to be in the same room. A recount will resolve this one issue. But how yāall donāt see that demanding polling workers to stop, and show each individual ballot to a poll watcher is just an amazing thing to me. Poll watchers jobs are to make sure that all votes are counted, ballots arenāt missed, and ballots are not discarded. To date there has been ZERO proof of Trumps accusations, yet you still blindly believe Trumps assertions, despite his history of lies, deceit and his D word strategy. Deny. Discredit, destroy, distance etc.

Ā @dawaj3715Ā ā Agree completely, but that is a HUGE undertaking that must be prepared for. Let me rephraseā¦ Assume youāre just out of high school, single, and want kids someday. Do you start buying diapers and baby food now? No. The spouse, income to support a kid, support a family, etc., all must come first. Thereās already speculation that this burst pipeline was by an activist, just like the people that started the California fires š„ to bring attention to global warming. That made it worse IMMEDIATELY, and did little to help the cause, it actually fueled a backlash. Want to get rid of oil, SUPPORT alternatives, then be the first to migrate. By being a customer/consumer, an early adopter you will do more, faster, than trying to just stop oil use.

Ā @hitthegoatĀ ā Is it? The worst thing about oil is itās not clean, not renewable, and a diminishing resource. We exhausted our āpooledā oil resources, now we are working on extracting oil from rocks (fracking), which they say will keep America self sufficient for yearsā¦ but anyone with a brain knows thatās just marketing slogan. Proponents of fracking insist its safe, environmentally safe, that the injected chemicals are well below the water table, yet when you look at the chemicals we are putting into the earth, their effects on humans, it WILL scare the hell out of you. Then you have idiots like me who have lived in Dallas for 30+ years, never experienced a local earthquake, yet after fracking started in Irving 12 miles away, we now have them regularly. All I know is when you listen to a business that PROFITS from the industry that it promotes as āsafe,ā I have doubts. I mean would you drop off your kids at a Nursery named Child Molester Recovery Nursery, even though they insist itās safe? Yes, I have trust issues.

Ā @derricksmith8978Ā ā Re: āNo, oil companies should replace it.ā Probably not gonna happenā¦ I just watched a newscast that explained why. Many companies including oil companies, or any company that operates with vehicles for example, or companies that have a product that has a particular liability vector, such as cell phone companies towers. The companies split off those divisions or sections into different smaller companies there are supposedly, at least on paper, independently owned. This way a small operator owns that piece of the pie, so that if there is a liability issue they can simply declare bankruptcy and not affect the parent company. The California oil producers for the companies that originally on the pipeline donāt on the California pipeline section anymore, it is owned by a small company in Texas called vector energy I believe if I remember correctlyā¦ And essentially that small company will be responsible for any liability claims and if it cannot pay, it simply declares bankruptcy. They do this specifically for that reason. For example any company that owns a series of fleet vehicles those vehicles and the drivers work for a subcontractor not the parent company that is on the name of the trucks. They do this so that if a company vehicle we are in a family and create a big liability issue, the insurance company of the family injured cannot sue the parent company, they have to sue the company that employees the driver and rents the truck. Meaning that the parent company with deep pockets is protected financially, and the small company only has a limited amount to lose in the event of a lawsuit. Welcome to 21st-century legality reality 101.

A woman broke into a home I had bought to fix up and move into, she changed the locks and the police were powerless. She just held up the keys and told them she had permission, she was a resident to the police. When I arrived with the police I asked to get some of my valuables out, and she yelled at the police and I, āYOUR VALUABLES? MY HOUSE, MY FURNITURE, MY APPLIANCES, MY JEWELRY, MY TOOLS!ā Then she told the police to get me off of her property, and they did. Iām out tens of thousands of dollars and as itās a civil issue, my only apparent legal option I have is to sue her. My attorney just laughed, sure you can spend 2k to 10k trying to sue her, if you can locate her, if you can get her in court, if you win... then what do you expect to get from a homeless, transient, drug addict, prostitute thief?
She has found just not the perfect crime but the perfect time time to do it during the virus, sheās been there 4 months now and we havenāt even gotten to the first stage if the eviction process yet.

Ā @kathleenswarm8564Ā I understand the logic but disagree. They were lied to by a conman, told that a 'flu shot' was a vaccine, and told not to take it by a MAN they felt was appointed my God to lead the nation. Bottom line, anyway you slice it Trump is responsible for roughly half a million COVID deaths because of his handling, inherent need to lie about anything (it's his first response over telling the truth), and his need to put his welfare over the countries or the people who voted for him. And yes, I know, no one cares because Trump was appointed by God, so God knew what Trump would do, approved, sanctified, and justified everything Trump would do before anointing him as our leader... I just think that is ALL BS. Trump is just a conman, and the Republican voters and politicians used him as a vehicle to accomplish their goals.

@ ā Ahh, while some Presidents have, I donāt believe that is a requirement. Found this: Actually, no regulation specifies that the president should salute (or return the salute of) military personnel. In fact, U.S. Army regulations, for example, state that neither civilians nor those wearing civilian attire (both of which describe the U.S. president) are required to render salutes. The regulation states:
"The President of the United States, as the commander in chief, will be saluted by Army personnel in uniform.
"Civilian personnel, to include civilian guards, are not required to render the hand salute to military personnel or other civilian personnel.ā [end]

Ā @GameChanger597Ā ā Thanks, you just made my day! š¤£ āA True Americanā LMAO! Who lied to retain power, āincited an insurrection against the United States of Americaā the very definition of treason, who tried to subvert an election with lies, telling his voters to vote twice, changing in 16 states during a pandemic that instead of being able to drop off mail in ballots at the local city halls, they had to be taken to the County Seat, slowing down the post office, removing Mail Drop off boxes, changed the date from mailed by, to received by for mail in votes, AND tried to cheat at the election by replacing the states duly chosen electoral voters with his chosen ones that would vote for Trump over the respective states popular vote. If THAT is your definition of a āTrue Americanā this country is lost. You are almost funny if you werenāt so sad.

Ā @spark_6710Ā ā It was a small farm, the animals, the gardens, the fields, all worked to support our family. I was saddened for a few months, especially at dinner time, so much that I couldnāt eat, but it wasnāt a lifelong trauma. I get that you are vegetarian, thatās wonderful. But... not everyone is. Cows were a source of income and food, I do NOT blame my dad for what happened. My point was simple, cows are not dumb, they have a mind of their own and are a lot more intelligent than we think. And just like people, they have personalities. We used a butcher service, it, a guy in a small truck with a refrigerated box, would come by for an appointment every few months. We would get a small portion of the cow, and he would pay my dad for the rest. Cows would queue up for the barn in a storm, to be milked, and they lived happy lives with us. Most were friendly, and some craved attention like my cow. Iām fine many years after experience, and I am sorry that you were so Seriously affected by it. I will always remember her, she really was unique. And for the record I get your position, it would be great if everyone were vegetarian, but we are a diverse people, and we are not all the same. Iām sure you realize that nature works on a predator/prey system, thatās the circle of life. Even deer will kill and eat squirrels, and as they have few predators now, there is a reason for hunting them. My point is itās all good. ššš¼

haywoodyoudome ā Actually, I think it was. They were very prone to flipping, and he didnāt steer radically, panic or hit the brakes. He was clearly over confident, thinking his little 4x4 would help him on ice. But when I think about what I saw, the vehicle rotated ever so slightly, the back moved a bit to the left and it liked like it hit something, like a small clump of snow. Then it just flipped on is drivers side. And I was going to stop, just not on the bridge as it wouldnāt have been safe. I drove past pulled over, and started back when a police car stopped before the bridge and turned on its lights, so I returned to my car. But I seriously do not think the driver had time to react, save take his foot off the gas. It happened so fast.

Ā @noemibarrios4056Ā ā Your accusation is not relevant to this video, and is based on several false assumptions. So as you made some false assumptions, I will make a few. As a Republican who supports liars and conmen, may I assume that you are one too? Are you bothered by her being black, that you feel her claims are false of her one black lawyer being accused out of a team where he is the only black person, are you triggered by her doing it a black church, or are you saying that as a black person she has no right to be in a church? That essentially implies that you are a racist in any of the four possible interpretations of your words based on the views of your MAGA Republican Party.
Am honest answer would be I donāt know, sounds suspect, and if the claims against her are found to be accurate then I hope she is removed from her position and prosecuted. Note that if I was a normal Republican I would be insisting she not be prosecuted. It should be noted that hiring a black person is not a crime, well unless you are a MAGA racist Republican. If she dated him, that is also not illegal, again unless you are a racist MAGA Republican. If he, a black man chose to spend his money on her to take her on vacations, that is also between them as consenting adults, againā¦ unless you are a racist MAGA Republican. That said, if there is any information that she paid him more that her other assistant prosecutors, or if he is under qualified for the job compared to others on her team, or if there is any documentation, emails, texts, recordings or witnesses that can speak of favoritism. If any of these things are trueā¦ lock her up! I am all for justice being pursued no matter the person or position, and that includes Biden. You canāt prosecute a sitting President, but he certainly can be prosecuted when he leaves office.
Also of note; youāre assuming I am a DemoncRat, I am not. I am simply a Christian and a Republican who finds the current faithless and completely devoid of values Republican Party abhorrent and reprehensible. I miss the old days when Republicans governed instead of ruled, had values, both Christian and human, you know those things you now view as obsolete, honor, honesty, integrity, character, those silly things.

Ā @noemibarrios4056Ā ā Trumps second impeachment was for the insurrection, because he urged his followers to go to the capital and told them now was the time for force. He was found guilty in the house phase. In the Senate phase their opening statement which you can listen to here on YouTube, was simple; āTrumps actions are not in question, Trump did do what he is accused of, that is verifiable. What we are here to decide is if those actions warrant Trumps removal from office.ā They also added that Trump could be charged for these crimes after he left office, something Trump is fighting to prevent. Trump claimed he was completely exonerated, that was a complete lie told for the dolts who believe every word he says. He was not exonerated, it was decided in the Senate trial that his actions did not warrant removal from office, big difference. Also, if you look up the legal definition of Treason, thatās it. āWhosoever incites an uprising against the government of the United States shall be guilty of Treason.ā You and I might not call it an insurrection, but it was an uprising, a physical riot, an attempt to stop the transfer of power.

Mike M ā Half true. We knew in January by the few details China released that it was very contagious, graphs projected it could be widespread and even though only a 3.4% mortality rate, the rate of infection meant the death toll would be high. He took no action, said it was a democratic hoax. When he did that 11 from my church, and 9 of my relatives, all trumpets booked travel as āit was safe, itās a hoax!ā They got stuck in their hotel in France, ordered to say there, but snuck out anyway to eat and see a few sights. When they returned, the were rerouted to the west coast and quarantined again for 2 weeks. They still believe itās a hoax, and that their vacation was ruined by the evil democrats. A week or two ago, one of my Aunts sent out an email to everyone reminding them thatās itās a hoax, but even though be safe, but donāt worry, because Psalms says even though 1000 die to the left, and 10,000 to our right, God will protect his faithful from all pestilence. A couple from church became ill, not sure if they were on the trip, and her email said clearly this means the couples faith was not strong, as God said he would protect the faithful, so they had lost their faith. (Think about the logic there for a moment.) trump says Easter will be back to normal, they made plans. Now trump says end of April, they are making plans. Doesnāt matter that the CDC says we need a period of zero new infections of at least longer than the incubation period, and testing to identify inadvertent carriers... /or we risk starting the cycle all over again. if Trump says Virus be gone, God has decreed it! Not to mention that Trump is sending supplies to states w a strong trump base first. Or to mention that 100% of the respirators sent to California were defective. Not 20%, 50%... ALL of them. How does that āaccidentallyā happen? To me, Trump is sending a clear message, his supporters first, Democratic states American citizens lives do not matter. Who cares if they die?
As for Obamacare, the more insured actually drives the cost down for everyone, not up. Obamacare wasnāt perfect, but instead of improving it, Trump dismantles it vindictively. I for one have been uninsured for 2 years because I canāt afford medical care. Luckily, Iām healthy... but I for one thought Obamacare wasnāt half bad, not great, but it helped! My price was $480/mo under it, now Iām asked to pay $780/mo.

Ā @evolutionistheflyingspaghe2702Ā ā Iām curious, when a liar speaks, how do you tell what is true? How do you not know that Trump was a lifelong Democrat (voter records) before running as an independent, losing, and switching to the Republican Party for the win. You think Democrats are baby killers, yet Iāve NEVER spoken to a Democrat who wants to kill babies. And oddly, if you had researched your own opinion, you would find that Trump paid for five abortions in the decade prior to his presidency (shown in his legal records, which he denies and said they are lies, he has never paid for abortions, yet the legal records settlements clearly state pregnancy termination which is an abortion.). Additionally did you know that Democrats have tried to add delays, a National term limit to get an abortion (no mid/late-term abortions)m funding to assist mothers in that situation with healthcare, school, job and housing assistance as well as adoption assistance... yet the Republican Party has fought every single one, listing their reasons as āit would incentivize pregnancies, and reduce the support of their anti-abortion stance.ā Think about that. Why would they fight against Democrat attempts to save lives? Why would āreducing support for their anti-abortion stanceā be a deal breaker? To me, that says their stance isnāt to save children, itās to keep the money flowing into the Republican Party. Add to that that the minutes from the GOP meetings where anti abortion and other things like anti-equality stances were ALL added with the (motion) statement āto increase party loyalty and further polarize the voters.ā I applaud your stance, but think you misunderstand the reasoning for it. They have no interest in saving children, they just want the money the fight provides.

Ā @92nogoodname60Ā ā The Philippines is NOT a US territory, they asked to be self governed after WW2 and the USA agreed, we walked away. The Philippines are still an ally, and we have in several instances made protective overtures like you mentioned. The Philippines is also not a NATO member, so even if China invades them no NATO nation is going to intervene. The only help they might receive is from the United Nations, if requested, and it looks to be a Humanitarian Aide situation, they might help bring peace and attempt to mitigate the killing by the Chinese military against Philippine citizens. My comment was simple, others were saying the USA was a bully, worse than China. I politely disagree. We are not perfect, but we are also not what you and others think us to be. However if you look at Chinaās history and actions, as well as their allyās like Russia and North Korea, they ARE very aggressive.

We might want to clarify thisā¦ She never had a case, or a lawsuit asking her to do so, yet somehow escalated this to the SCOTUS level. Think please, there are businesses all over the country that have āNo Shirt, No Shoes ā NO SERVICE!ā Two businesses that I know of in Texas have signs in their windows or exit doors saying āNO F4GS!ā or āNO GAYS!ā and they arenāt an issue at all because any privately owned business can serve whomever they please. She made this an issue because of a nonexistent issue or condition, based on fears of the Colorado Lesbian cake case that went to SCOTUS. A lesbian went into a cake shop, ordered a wedding cake, the order was accepted and she received a receipt showing her deposit and day of delivery [a CONTRACT]. Then on the wedding day, the shop said no, and refused to even return her deposit. The cake shop had NO SUCH SIGN ON THEIR DOOR, accepted the order and gave a receipt, meaning there was a contract that the company could have refused and returned her deposit at any time. The women sued the company and won based on the CONTRACTURAL issue, and the bakery was ordered to return their deposit. Then wedding shop appealed and lost based on the contract they failed to honor, and then the case hit the news and morphed into a religious rights issue eventually going to the SCOTUS level. This woman could have and can put any sign or message they wanted on their website such as āPROUDLY SERVING HETEROSEXUAL CUSTOMERS ONLY!ā But didnāt, somehow escalating to the SCOTUS level without a case. So this woman sued for a non-existent reason, and gained the right to refuse service to anyone, a right afforded to literally EVERY private business in America with the exception of medical services in the event of a medical emergency. This has WEIRD AF written all over it. People are claiming discrimination, others screaming Religious rights upheld, when nothing and I mean NOTHING has changedā¼ļø š¤£

Tessmage Tessera ā Yes, plenty of facts, racist cops, racist donors, Buttigieg fired a black police officer for insubordination. Nothing, absolutely nothing stated is a quote from Buttigieg or anything tying him to the racist cops he inherited when he was elected. Oh yes, damning, the police were bigots, racists. But wait, you were there, are you a racist? Weāre all cops there racists because some were? Hmmm why not just fire everyone... because everyone deserves a fair trial, presumption of innocence, unless you fire a black person for insubordination. Your logic is flawed.

Polls and votes are irrelevant. You know that electoral votes are what count, right? And 39 states have āfaithless electorates.ā This means that if a state has 20 votes, and the entire state votes democrat Trump can buy, bribe, sway those electoral voters with anything he wants, jobs, cars, money, doesnāt matter as long as it works. So Its possible that with 100% voting Democrat, the 20 electoral votes can be all cast for Trump, because Trump is a smart man.

Ā @jawbone78Ā ā Iāve been robbed, robbed and beaten, and also burglarized. The police showed up hours or days later to take a report without ever hearing from them again. I spent six months in hospitals and rehab after one event, I use a cane to this day. Iāve been a CHL holder for about 30 years, and had zero incidents since then. I am not a danger to anyone unless they attack me, and often not even then. I had a drunken neighbor try and hit me and stopped him without ever even thinking of the gun in my pocket. Want to know the point of my comment? Every time guns are restricted deaths, especially multiple deaths decreaseā¦ then return to normal. The only difference is death by hammer, axe, or knife in this case. The issue is the human factor. I know we will disagree on this issue, and Iām not trying to argue. All I know is that in the moment of an attack, you are on your own. If you are unarmed, you are at the criminals mercy, IMHO being armed gives you a chance, albeit a slim one.

Ā @davidgarland2533Ā ā Youāre trolling just for the warm fuzzies (endorphins released when someone responds) arenāt you? Because he said so to the woman. And frankly I didnāt know, itās just what happened. It struck me as funny because none of us, myself, the woman, got it at first. The woman was smiling as he shook her hand and thanked her, then when he finished speaking her smile left her face as she, and the rest of us understood what he had said. I was laughing my bum off all day, and you clearly lost your sense of humor eons ago. Was he being honest? No clue, you may be right the guy may have just been messing with her (which I also applaud). He did it so well, nicely, politely, and then when she realized what he meant... š³ silence. And no, I didnāt take names or video it, just made me laugh. Nothing more, nothing less. Go troll elsewhere, I am seriously not understanding the point of your existence.

Ā @46thefailureĀ ā Keep in mind the person traded was who Russia wanted and would trade for. He can no longer serve as a Russian asset as heās been in prison for a decade (est.) so he is in essence obsolete, we (US intelligence) have learned everything from him they could, we have his voice print, fingerprints, DNA, picture, and EVERY NATO ally has him on every no fly list that exists.
And yes, absolutely if he is returned he is facing military prison here in the states. Also remember that they are and have been working for his release, even involving multiple other countries who may have Russians in prison they want back. And please do try to keep up, in her home state it is legal, she didnāt have āweedā exactly, she had a cannabis Vape cartridge. Minor difference, but the key point was it was legal for her to possess and use in her home state. FOX News didnāt share that either.

@Seymour Hiney ā Falsehoods shrouded in a thread of truth. True, Lincoln was a Republican, so you wrongly assume that the south were democrats. You need to educate yourself, not joking. Democrats are the ones who are pushing for equal rights, Republicans a\seek to remove them. How can you possibly not see what you stand for when Trump and Republican events are all proudly flying KKK T-Shirts and confederate flags? The only possible answer is that you, like Trump, believe that if you tell a lie enough, there might be people who believe your lies. Nothing but deception, lies, misinformation, and distraction. You are literally calling Democrats racist with a confederate flag behind you and āProud Boysā on your phone contacts. Actually Iād be willing to bet they are your I.C.E. Contacts. Too funny.

Texas alone has bussed 50,000 a month, over 1,000,000 illegals to Democrat cities, most that would have been deported, all to have something to point at and scream āLOOK AT THE EVIL DEMāS!ā Economy? Thatās up. Inflation? Down too, but you all donāt see Trumps hand in this as he started the tariff war with China causing worldwide shortages, and he dumped trillions into the economy increasing the debt by more than any other president in history. Gas? While it did hit $1.82 - $1.78 during Covid low demand when no one was driving, the AVERAGE NATION WIDE price under Trump was $2.96/gal., and under Biden so far itās averaged $2.88 per gallon. Oh sure Trump says differently, but look at the facts and understand Trump is a liar. Doubt me, research what I said, please.

Ā @Mk101TĀ ā She had a mild stroke, and was in an extended care facility for just over a year. When her family got her home, her $400k +/- house was foreclosed, sold and she was homeless. She was devastated. I want to say that she got a lawyer, but I lost track of whatever happened as she passed a year and a few months afterwards. I just remember helping a family member check things out online, and we were floored to find the company that bought the house for loan value (I think it was $45-50k?) was a real estate firm that we tracked back through nested companies that were all owned by the banks. Many banks, it wasnāt just Wells Fargo, it was Chase, Legacy Texas bank, a few credit unions, etc. I get that itās just business, but it was sold as-is for the amount of the banks liability, and the extra after fees and expenses Iām sure went directly to Wells Fargo. To me, IMO thatās unfair as hell.

Ā @aaronwilson8403Ā ā Add delusional. You want free and fair elections? By casting doubt, lying, trying to manipulate the vote, overthrow the vote by the SCOTUS, by the Justice department, then by National Guard, then by US military, attempting to deploy American troops on American soil against American citizens in a coup attempt? And I get the resistance to a mandated vaccine, agree completely. Letās overlook that we all are required to get polio, measles, tetanus, and other vaccines as children, we have freedoms! Trump and the Republican Party have done EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to deny the seriousness of Covid-19, and spread mis-information about mask wearing and vaccines. Great! Super! No vaccines should be required! āThis is truly Darwinās theory at work! Go for it buddy! Oh waitā¦ SNAP! What about the other people youāll infect, the elderly, those with preexisting conditions?ā Ehhā¦ just Republicans. No one will care. Oh and before you object, I just repeated a speech from our pastor, about Democrats. LMAO!

Ā @aaronwilson8403Ā you know thereās like 4 or five right? And you are right, the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are MRNA, a new type that just teaches your body how to fight a specific virus, much like getting sicknesses ages 1-6 teaches your body how to fight them your entire life. Hereās the kickerā¦ J & J, the Johnson and Johnson vaccine is a normal vaccine, it contains antibodies. Oh, and if your next argument is religious, the only relevant scripture is āthou shall not drink/partake/consume blood, which up until the late 70ās vaccines did contain blood by-products, but they donāt anymore! So what exactly is your argument against being told to take a vaccine?
Letās look at your other commentsā¦ States changed their election laws for COVID, true. Mail in voting was expanded not everyone, not just the elderly or handicapped. And hereās the fun part, in 16 states in primarily Democrat cities the date mail in votes could be accepted was quietly changed from postmarked by, to RECEIVED BY Election Day. Also mailboxes in major cities only and sorting machines were removed, and late filers wishing to drop off their mail in votes was changed from city offices to COUNTY offices, resulting in many having to drive 4 hours or more to drop off their vote, and then wait in lines all in the middle of Covid. Facebook did delete posts, but thereās a list of false information that affected idiots posting crap on a;l sides of the political spectrum. Additionally, Facebook is NOT the government, they are a private company, so therefore are free to steer their platform in any direction they want. And if you are referring to 3 of the 7 vote counting stoppages filmed, all were due to Covid fears, or due to poll watchers creating disturbances. Poll watchers can watch, and stop things if they see something wrong, but many were using their positions to seriously delay, and raising a red flag because āthey wanted to look at a ballot, which they do not have the right to do. This is all documented! This was THE most watched and audited election in the history of the United States, ever. And yes, there were a few states that did kick poll watchers out, because they were disruptive, stopping the machines for every conceivable nonsensical reason. And the 54k āillegal votes?ā No. They were 54k votes MORE THAN THAT PRECINCT HAD CITIZENS that was verified that people had used the wrong precinct out of convenience. They did not vote twice, it was not like the Republicans actually did do in Arizona. And odd that you object to using fetuses for vaccines, when itās those fetuses that were used to treat Trump. Take you lies, Bull and misinformation somewhere else, spewing crap is not helping anything or anyone. Seriously, itās gotten to the point where when speaking to a Republican I doubt EVERYTHING! How do you lie and then look yourself in the mirror?

-
Ā @aaronwilson8403Ā ā 1. I reminded you that your President received fetal injections to help him survive COVID, it really was that serious. You decried use of fetuses while endorsing a candidate whose life was saved by them. I was attempting it point out your double standard but failed in making my point evidently. 2. Sixteen states, not just Pennsylvania changed laws to give every advantage to the Republican voters and decrease Democratic chances. 3. The Arizona audit self identified as not being a complete, real audit. And you are again either wrong, or lying, there were many recounts done, actually sending ALL ballots through the voting machines a second time, and there were no major differences in the votes. There were some 119 lawsuits in multiple states, all were dismissed but one, where the Judge ruled a recount was needed, it was performed, and the vote was off by about a dozen (diff) but did not change anything. That was one county in Texas, where poll watchers were by law to be in the same room, but the county for COVID had them in a glass room. 5 or 7 whatever, Johnson and Johnson IS a standard antibody vaccine. Please do try and keep up. It DOES have antibodies. Read up before you spread lies. And also... for vaccinated people, Moderna and Pfizer are effective 90?% and 80 something % respectively, the J&J vaccine is like 70 something percent effective. Trump got ZERO vaccines to the people, as no vaccine was ready, but he did start the ball rolling. Trump also lied to the public for 8 months KNOWING how easily it spread, costing who knows how many lives. Trump also told the 3 pharmaceutical vaccine companies that we would need only 1/3 of what was ordered, Bidenās first act was to increase the orders. So you are again spinning crap to fit your agenda. And seriously, youāre touting the constitution when your party tried to overthrow it? SERIOUSLY?!

Kobe Bryant ā You know that electoral votes are what count, right? And 39 states have āfaithless electorates.ā This means that if a state has 20 votes, and the entire state votes democrat Trump can buy, bribe, sway those electoral voters with anything he wants, jobs, cars, money, doesnāt matter as long as it works. So Its possible that with 100% voting Democrat, the 20 electoral votes can be all cast for Trump, because Trump is a smart man. Your vote is irrelevant.

Think you are missing the point. In the decision verbiage it states that other āfreedomsā are soon to fall, exactly what she said, birth control, interracial marriage, and marriage equality, these three cases also have no constitutional protections. They are creating a Christian version of a Shira Law type of country. Unmarried and having sex? CRIME! Gay? CRIME! Rights are lost one at a time, and few care because ātheyā are safe. Iām not gay so who cares if they remove marriage equality or even make it illegal just to be gay? A crime to be of mixed heritage? A crime to be of childbearing age and single? A man without a wife? CRIME! Not a person of faith, no job for you! Jobs arenāt protected by the constitution either. We are all cool with losing freedoms that donāt affect US, but when it becomes a crime to be whatever you areā¦ whoās coming to help you protect your rights? Ohā¦ you got a divorce? CRIME! Thatās against Gods Law! You can be fired, lose your house, who cares, Iām still married, Iām good.

Ā @FraGSupportĀ ā I heard a loud command (shouting?) followed immediately by shooting, sorry. He was facing police with his gun pointed down. By the book, the prior response was correct, as he had already fired shots before police arrived, he presented a threat. So ātechnicallyā the shooting was justified. However on the ethical side of the situation, I completely disagree ā They should have hesitated and given him time to comply in my opinion, which counts for nothing. Also, while I canāt frame by frame the video, I did not notice him complying. From what I saw there was zero time for him to comply. Not disagreeing, just not what I saw, you may be correct. They may be on sound legal ground and sadly face no consequences, but the shooting shows a total absence of humanity by the officers. Again, my unprofessional opinion that no one asked for. I get that it was (may have been) procedurally, legally and technically justified, but I also think it was wrong as hell.

Ā @shawncorbin6777Ā ā Absentee voting has been used since the civil war, it has a long,long history in the United States. That you need someone to explain the term āVote by mailā to you, is frankly hilarious. You a registered voter, contact your local voting registrar, and request a form, you fill it out, then when itās time they mail you a ballot, you complete, sign and return it, then itās counted. You must have an IQ of 45.

Ā @embracethesuck1041Ā ā Both incidences where ballot boxes were found āMisfiledā which does not mean a loss of chan of custody and do not indicate fraud. And also consider COVID, massive increases in mail in voting, and the fact that Trump vetoed federal election funds in support to help count the votes nationwide, just one more āhelpfulā thing Trump has done to keep himself in office. Trump worked with Russia to discredit Hillary, worked with Ukraine to discredit the Bidenās, told his people to vote twice, and not trust mail in voting, he changed the laws in many states to change the mail in vote rules from postmarked by Election Day to RECEIVED by Election Day, he put his guy in charge of the post office who has worked to remove post office boxes and sorting machines before Election Day, and in states like Texas, Governors even went so far as to change drop off points from cities to ONE PER COUNTY. This means that millions of people must fight traffic, drive for hours, then stand in line to drop off their mail in ballot to ensure it is counted. All to preference Trump. And yesterday, Police and national guard at many voting sites in Texas to discourage illegals from voting.
Again, you are a Republican, you support an evil lying adulterous traitorous criminal... and here you go posting bullshit āproofā that proves absolutely nothing. How do you look yourself in the mirror each day knowing what a reprehensible worthless piece of trash you have become? How are you not ashamed of what a low life liar you are! Seriously Dude! I am trying to use the most polite and kind words I can think of to describe you, and Iām failing! You, like Trump, are two low life gravy sucking pigs of human beings. Find a church! Get your friends and family to pray for you! ANYTHING! You are sickening!

DJ Sympy ā Then your IQ is lower than my dogs. The CDC has zero reason to lie, they are a medical organization, and have no political leaning assuming they are professional, which being mostly Doctors with their careers and reputations hanging on their every word. You sound like my relatives, Doctors are faking Covid deaths (truth, happened in 6 verified cases, all in one city, 4 at one hospital and 2 at another, all by the same doctor who worked at both hospitals.) to get money, claiming heart attacks (like you just did) and strokes are Covid deaths. The truth is simple, please listen carefully and feel free to verify what I say. COVID-19 affects the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM, which starves the body of oxygen, they gasp for air, their heart pumps harder, their blood pressure increases as a result. Think about that and how heart attacks and strokes might be related... hopefully you came up with what the doctors did; heart pumping harder than normal on a person not in great shape equals heart attack. Heart pumping harder in a person not in great shape increases the chances of a blood vessel bursting in your brain resulting in a... wait for it... STROKE. So the TRUTH is that underlying conditions plus COVID-19, cause heart attacks and strokes. Doubt me? Look up the epidemiology of Covid deaths here on YouTube, there are even several autopsies you can watch. But your spreading Trumps lies and non-medical information is unconscionable for you to do, itās wrong and inhuman on every level.

Daedlus Gotcha... Republican, think youāre religious, first course of response is to throw out the LGBTQ card, LMAO! Not my cup of tea either but my son is gay and I love him and want him to have a good life. Donāt care if you donāt like him, he is still my son and a human being. If you want to see true hypocrisy, check out the differences between the Republican Anti-Abortion stance and the Democrats Pro-Life stance. It is self evident that the reason for the Republican Party fighting EVERY effort to save babies lifeās, now , today, immediately, has nothing to do with saving lives, but has everything to do with keeping the money from the Religious Republicanās flowing. The Republican Party doesnāt want to save lives... or they would. Itās about your money.

What banks can LOAN is based on a bizarre percentage of their deposits/CDās/other assets. I forget the termā¦ LDR? Loan to Deposit Ratio? Donāt quote me, LOL! Essentially they can loan out 90% of their deposits. So deposit a $100k and the bank can loan out $90k in loans. As people make payments on their houses, cars, lines of credit, etc., the bank can turn around and make loans again to reuse the cash. When banks bite the dust, they go over that 90% and push higher. Banks also must ācoverā their required cash on hand daily, meaning that say someone cashes out their IRA, say $100k, that reduces their amount they are allowed to loan, and to stay under that 90% mark they borrow from other bigger banks every night to ābalance their accounts.ā Thatās why banks penalize you for early withdrawals. š

Ā @HandymancinemaĀ ā You did watch the video, right? He won the criminal case because he did NOT transport the rifle across state lines, was defending a relatives store, and they couldnāt prove intent, malice or forethought. Was there 3 or 4 attackers? Maybe, dunno. Was it a pure case of self defense, the jury thought so, so what do I know? Only what I saw on the video without sound filmed at some distance, to meā¦ it looked like an over reaction, and I āthinkā the civil case might have merit. I would not want to be in his shoes, legal fees are going to be substantial, win or lose the case.

Ā @raymondparnell439Ā ā Have you read P2025? It is truly scary, no free press, no habeas corpus (due process), no innocent until proven guilty, no public services (it plans to end federal support for transportation projects and operations, no trains, no bus systems, etc.), no healthcare, Medicare or Medicaid, and the deportation or imprisonment of undesirables which is defined as undocumented people, immigrants, homeless, unemployed, and deviants. Think about that please. Imagine BLM āprotestsā in every city a thousand times worse. But they have a plan for that, use US military against citizens. P2025ās CEO said in an interview that āThis would be thenSecond American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the Demās allow it.ā Hello? This is not a normal presidency!

mtb416 ā Have you considered that politics today have changed on both sides? Instead of pointing fingers, why not demand honesty and accountability from whichever party you belong to? Why not hold them to a stronger level of integrity? Yeah, I get it... Clinton had an affair, trumps had 73 that we know of in the last decade, some with prostitutes. Obama was bad, Trump is good, if only it was THAT simple. As America has grown, the voting population has lost their ability to chose a candidate based on policy. The Republicans began their marriage with the evangelical leaders with Reagan meeting personally with the top 1000 in the nation. But dude, that doesnāt make the Republican Party religious! Read the minutes from every GOP planning meeting where every bullet point was added use phrases like "To further polarize the voters and increase party loyalty." Understand this... the Republican Party is not pro-life, they are anti-abortion because being so increases the money flowing in to them. Marriage equality, ditto. Did you know that the guy who suggested they add an anti gay stance to their positions used the exact phrase I quoted? Did you know that he was gay? And yes, he was terminated about 4 months later. You think your doing gods work, when youāve been manipulated and you just donāt know it!

jack b ā You again! LMAO! Letās compare your candidate Trump to Pete Butigieg shall we? Trump never served because he temporarily had bone spurs, barely graduated once, barely speaks English, has lied about 14,000 times just while in office, married 4 times, his current wife is a former model-escort whose web pages are still available on Russian web sites advertising her services to clients of means only. (I highly recommend her girl-on-girl videos), he has had at least 73 affairs that we know of, paid for 5 abortions and defrauded over 30,000 people. And I specifically havenāt mentioned the 22 alleged rape accusations pending litigation when he leaves office. And then there is Pete, who you hate, who has multiple degrees, speaks 6 languages, married once, and served in Afghanistan. You seem stuck on one thing, he is openly gay, even though we are all sinners, all sin is equal, and all sin can be forgiven. Therefore you are calling God out for being wrong, even though he said Thou shall not judge. I am curious, who are you to argue with God? Oh wait... do you even worship God?

Ā @brucemitchell5637Ā āHmmm, remember the big red š wave š at the last election? Do you remember the news? The Republican Party PAID polling companies to skew the results. Not joking, FOX and OAN (not sure about NewsMax) did the same. People want to win, want to vote for a winner, yet you believe polls where the companies ārandomlyā poll people in THE reddest states, reddest neighborhoods, most Republicans per mile in that stateā¦ and you believe what everyone else believes is propagandaā¦ the jokes on you. I have no clue, I vote my conscience, Iāve voted Republican until 2020 because I have no clue what to believe about Republican policies anymore. When Biden took office several bills written and championed by Republicans, that would have benefited the country were VOTED AGAINST BY REPUBLICANS. Think about that, we blame Biden (he is partly responsible) for inflation when a large part of it is because Republicans voted against their own bills for the STATED reason āwe donāt want a win under a Democratic President.ā Do you get that? Screw the nation as long as we win or look good. Seriously, youāre voting for a president who lies, a political party that lies, you think youāre right because you believe the lies. At what point do you ask yourself what the truth really is?

O.K., O.K., I give. Unarmed MIGHT not be correct. I have a CHL permit, I was robbed, beaten, teeth broken, and the police werenāt even interested in taking a report. I carry everywhere (except where signage states otherwise), itās like my car keys, goes into my pocket when I walk out the door. Am I a threat to anyone? NO! Well not unless youāre intent on killing me or my family. Nowadays Police assume EVERYONE has a gun. Iāve been stopped by the police, explained Iām armed and they literally say "everyone is." No big deal. Having a gun in your pocket MEANS NOTHING PEOPLE! Having a gun in your pocket when someone is beating the hell out of my front door or garage door, OF COURSE! Who wouldnāt! By your logic I should have been killed too! If he had brandished the gun, they might of shot him if they were āthreatened,ā but they didnāt. They shot THROUGH the closed garage door. The police may have SEEN a gun, but more likely they were just pissed the guy disrespected them by closing his garage door on their faces. Please note too that they FOUND IN FAVOR OF THE HOMEOWNER! Let me rephrase, cops goofed, jury agreed on that. But then valued the mans life at zero dollars. ZERO!

Ā @AlleyandGreyĀ ā The union wanted more personnel, time off for doctors appointments, and essentially what most workers take for granted. Had they been given the right to strike, more people able to do more checks, not working exhausted and understaffed, possibly might have helped. Im not trying to argue your point, itās valid, just saying that perhaps ordering them to return to work might not have been the best decision in hindsight. Would it have mitigated THIS accident, doubtful. But from what little I know, their requests seemed like common sense, and I was shocked the Railroad was balking. I have also stayed at a ārailroad motel,ā in far north Texas that was shockingly substandard. We are talking so bad it was deplorable, disgusting conditions. I canāt imagine having to stay there between shifts on a regular basis.
That said, I still want to know why you think Iām a troll. š

Ā @HawaiianSkiesĀ ā Tell you whatā¦ letās take you and/or your wife, hold you down and place a firm hand over your mouth and rape you or you both. Then we will lie, say it was consensual and that it was an affair, and when you speak out about it later, after years of shame, we will defame you, destroy you, threaten you, disparage you and harm your reputation so the world thinks you begged for it because Iām rich. Everyone wants to have sex with me! Iām a powerful person and you and or your wife just wanted a piece of that power. You and your wife lose you jobs, your house, your home, because your clients and customers find other businesses because YOU DARED SPEAK AGAINST GOD YOU LYING PIECE OF š©ā¼ļø
How is that for an example? It is what you are saying. It was an affair because she waited, it was an affair because how dare she call rape when she wanted it because everyone wants to be assaulted in a dressing room against their will! You refuse to believe that a jury of our peers took a deep dive into the evidence, Trumps testimony, and took the time to deliberate and found Trump guilty. YOU know better because she dared accuse the Orange lying conman you worship instead of Christ.

Ā @toqtoq3361Ā ā You left out backwards. And yes, itās a weird kind of twisted logic, any perspective they donāt like, no matter the truth, they deny and discount. My relatives whom I once thought sane, perpetuating crazy conspiracy theories that defy logic. People who I thought were patriots demanding to āstop counting votesā and threatening violence if Trump loses. Literally saying they would prefer a Trump dictatorship over democratic leadership, essentially saying end democracy, Nazi law is O.K. in the USA. People emboldened to reveal their Republican racist white power beliefs they once tried to hide. My relatives, once with values, now lying like crazy because āitās all for the greater good, to further Gods will,ā even though āThou shall not lieā used to be their fundamental belief. America is as close to self destruction as Iāve ever seen it or thought we could be. If itās this scary here... I can only imagine what the rest of the world must think.

Ā @Digger-NickĀ ā CNN has done a few retractions, Fox on the other hand has defended every lawsuit successfully with the same argument, āTHEY ARE NOT NEWS, THEY ARE ENTERTAINMENT, THAT AND FREE SPEECH LAWS THAT ENABLE THEM TO LIE.ā The only reason you think mainstream media is lying, is because they started pointing out Trumps constant āmisinformationā (lies) so Trump started calling them āfalseā or āfake news.ā So the reason, the logic behind your statement is that you would rather believe known liars like Trump or those that support him over trusted, verifiable news organizations that back every story with their journalistic integrity, their jobs, on the line. I get your point, news is biased as hell, and I agree, I wish it wasnāt that way too. But when multiple fact checkers verify a story, Iāll trust CNN or other news organizations over NewsMax and Fox, who vehemently protect their right to lie and publish lies based on their free speech rights any day.

David, you need to read the FBI reports on this... NOT JOKING! There were taps put on Trumps phones by the FBI, and the WHY will amaze you! Hillaryās servers were hacked, their IT contractor traced it to a Russian source, so they hired an ex-CIA operative with experience in Russia to investigate. He found the Russian firm, and inside found documents, payments and contracts indicating Trumps campaign paid for their services, Hillary was the target. And they turned the information they found to the FBI, and THEY investigated, including wiretaps authorized by legal warrants. So YES! The Trumps were tapped, and it was because of Hillary, because Trump ordered, and paid for the breaking to Hillaryās servers.

Miss Deb ā Proof? Trumps own legal records show more than 30,000 people defrauded, 73 affairs, 5 abortions and trumps been verified to lie 15+ times daily, publicly over his term, the total lies are over 15,000 lies while in office! You call democrats baby killers yet you support a man who has paid for FIVE! And please, before kavenaugh was nominated it was a done deal before it started. You guys had the votes and NOTHING kavenaugh had done mattered because he supported your agenda. Kavenaugh said yes in his interview to would you vote to protect religious freedoms, repeal Roe vs. Wade, and repeal marriage equality. So to further your agenda you have prostituted yourselves, supporting a lying rapist judge to the highest court in America. Seriously people, wake up. You absolutely CANNOT support lying adulterous thieving rapists and expect to maintain ANY semblance of respectability! I am so ashamed Iām a Republican! I am so ashamed that I voted for Trump! The question is WHY DO ALL YāALL HAVE NO SHAME?

Please tell me Samsung and Apple arenāt the only two choices. Apple will cancel your account if you arenāt a great customer. Samsung does not warranty their products past 30 days. Over the years Iāve had Samsung TVās, stoves, microwave/vent fans, refrigerators, and stoves fail within a few months, every time they say oh we didnāt receive your original receipt, they show Home Depot as the purchaser, etc. Anything they can do to deny warranty service is fair game. Granted, as I buy for my rental properties, Iāve bought a lot of stuff, much more than the average Joe. But Samsung deserves the award for āCrappiest Company Ever.ā

Ā @kalebjones5581Ā ā She starts off by saying āit (their count) was within a hundred of the original count, but that there were statutes broken which did not affect the count.ā The statures line I assume means laws, which has already been disproven in hundreds of court cases. Then a guy talks about how babies sleep patterns have to so with ballot signature verification patterns, explaining hoe a million of then showed bad signatures based on the comparisons of the baby sleep pattern inconsistencies, resulting 567 having bad signatures out of 1 million 500 thousand some odd signatures, which meant that the final. One count may have been off by a fraction of a percentage point. Again, based on comparison to babies sleep patterns compared to the signature patterns, final result was .00425%, variance. When they discussed 15,000 duplicate Republican votes, of people who submitted two votes (as instructed by Trump to do) that also did not affect the final vote.
Dude, this is dribble. Iām sorry, pixel density, which they ESTIMATED BY EYESIGHT VIEWING (Not by computer) of millions of ballots, by different untrained people, then converting these ESTIMATES of pixel density, based on comparisons against baby sleep patterns, all to estimate the validity of signatures on the envelopes. They counted 34,000 duplicate votes in one county, again by Republicans, and based on Scribbles and blanks, and likely blanks but with marks. WHAT THE FREAKING HELL DUDE?! This means NOTHING!
Edit. And please excuse me, but what does signature pixel pattern density have to do with babyās sleep patterns? What possible correlation does this have, especially considering they found 567 out of how many million? Letās use this logic, when I look at my lawn without my glasses on, itās blurry, therefore because my baby slept through the night 2 nights out of 92 nights, this obviously must mean Trump won. š³

Ā @jesusbanda9584Ā ā Itās hard to have empathy for people who lie, cheat and steal, who are willing to break every ethical, moral and legal value and rule to achieve their goal. IMHO, Republicans have lost every shred of humanity and faith they once had and now worship the devil proudly and with great devotion. āAll it takes for evil to exist so for good men to stand by and do nothing.ā Republicans are evil, their leadership is corrupt and they are absolutely devoid of compassion, honor, integrity and religious values. I get your point, but āthisā, what we have now... it has to be stopped first. If we donāt stop it America as we know it will be lost, our democracy ended, we will cease to exist as the country we are and devolve into chaos. To be polite and learn empathy while they subvert democracy.... thatās how they win. So no... I will not sit in the back of the bus, I will not sit down, I will not be quiet, I will NOT fail to try to stop Satan from taking over the country though the Republican Party.

Eric Tong ā No, but if taking pot shots at police officers (cruisers, they wouldnāt have known if the officers were in it or if it was empty) isnāt grounds for the effort and money, what in this world Is? I do Understand, I absolutely get the attitude, cops lie, their job is to arrest people, some are arrogant power hungry headstrong assholes... but most are just normal people, our friends family and neighbors. But to shoot at an officer? Iām kind of thinking thatās crossing the line. Yes, most search warrants and gun owners will just show the gun was stolen or sold, not them. But if ONE warrant finds the weapon, recently fired, in their home, with a ballistics match on a shell from the cruiser? That trial just MIGHT give some other asshole enough pause to not shoot at a cop, and just might save a life.

Ā @JamesBond-be4cwĀ ā āI wonāt look?ā Seriously? The FBI report clearly states there was! Hillaryās email servers were hacked. Their IT guys investigated, hit a wall, hired an outside firm who traced it to a Russian IP, that firm contracted an ex-CIA guy with Russian contacts who traces it to a Russian IT security firm, and found ties to the Trump campaign and Kushner. Hillaryās campaign turned over all of their information to the FBI, who did their own investigation and found the links CREDIBLE enough to investigate Trumpās campaign. THAT is where Trumpās assertions that Hillary had the FBI bug Trumpās officeās, and where Trumps frequent claims that Hillaryās email servers were unsecured, and where Trumpās claims that Hillary deleted (wiped) her email servers after they were subpoenaed comes from! The FBI Report INCLUDED in the Mueller Report clearly states that Hillaryās campaign IT company did not know about the subpoenas when THEY wiped the servers as part of the governmental procedures requiring them to be wiped per policy. Hillary had no part in that, they believed the investigation was over, and followed procedure, and were exonerated of wrongdoing. Not to mention that the FBI has already copied all of the data and there was nothing lost or unknown.
Then Trump said he was ācompletely exonerated, found completely innocent,ā when the Mueller Report summary stated that they have found ample evidence of collusion with Russia to manipulate the election, and obstructing their investigation, but we unable to prosecute a sitting president AT THIS TIME. Before you start spouting lies and misinformation, do your homework first! The redacted version of the Mueller Report is public and you can read it and the FBI report online. Wake up dolt!

@Nick Ford ā šš½š Minor point, but againā¦ Nixon restructured the social security system to change it from investments, what we had contributed, being used for SS payments into working adults make the payments into SS, which are immediately paid out to SS recipients. This allowed, allows, the government to receive ongoing regular income from the SSA. Want to know why Republicans are now screaming for the end of Social Security? Because COVID has changed the structure of jobs in the USA. I forget the percentage, but a large percentage of the working class has shifted from employer/employee paid SSA contributions to contract work. The SS revenues have dropped and while rebounding, most professionals working independently know how to hide income, and pay the minimum knowing that the last 6 months before retirement sets their retirement income SS payments. Republicans hate social welfare, and are working to either dismantle or restructure the system we currently have. I get the need to balance the budget and reduce the national debt, but this (what Republicans are trying) is not the way.

Ā @BB-nn9enĀ ā Might Be, but still doesnāt change what I know from years of off-roading. Jeeps are well designed for off road use, but are not reliable. I have never been on a trip where multiple Jeeps breakdown. They slow everyone down, cause multiple trips to town to get tools and parts, and while you may have faith in their transmissions, what about the springs, shock mounts, struts, engine mounts suspension components, etc. I get it, I LOVE to drive them! But I canāt bring myself to own one.

Ā @leonblack2651Ā ā No, you said they are all evil, I was working with your myopic logic. Our goal should be to improve, every day, bit by bit, to at least try and do the right thing. All Iām suggesting is that you TRY, instead of giving up. Apathy is the enemy, doing nothing is not a viable option. Imagine a food shortage, youāre at a store and the shelves are bare except for a can of beets and a can of corn, both are marked up to $45 because this is America. Youāre starving, and can only afford one. Do you pick the can of corn because it tastes better but you know itās essentially starch with little nutrients. The beets taste yucky š¤¢, but you know are full of the nutrients your body needs. Do you A) do nothing and starve (your current choice), B. Chose corn š½ to satisfy your hunger that day, or C. Chose the beets that will help you more?

KRONOS 1957 ā Did they? Do we have ANY credible source that they did? That such a virus weapons lab exists? It is way more likely this is just another baseless trump attack to spin things to his advantage? Letās see... withheld aid to a foreign country demanding that they āannounce they were opening an investigation into the Bidenās.ā Not actually do an investigation, just announce one. Then he murdered Iranās general, while there was cause, that wasnāt his reason, he stated āYes, letās do that, my people will like that,ā during a planning meeting on how to bolster his support during the impeachment hearings. Yup, just a distraction, Trump killed someone just so he would look strong and virile. Destroyed NAFTA to implement changes better for America, wonderful! Actual changes? Just the name, everything else the same, just a political ploy. Now trump and his team are shouting CHI-NAA did this to the USA. Did they really though? Trump is a sociopath lying human piece of dung who manipulates people and media as a pro would. And you, with Trumps finger through your nose ring...
Edit, My point because I doubt youāre going to get it is that you, all of us, are being tricked, manipulated and we donāt even know it. We believe him appointed by God, yet he possesses NONE of the traits we value. Well, unless you marry a prostitute, lie, commit adultery in an open marriage, steal from people and murder... but then I would question your faith too.

Ā @tonileigh8660Ā ā Seriously? š¤£ The recession started with covid and Trumps tariff war with China, which started a WORLDWIDE recession. Do Dems control the world? Your logic is laughable. A weakened military? When Trump tried to use the US military Against US citizens on US soil for the BLM riots, 20 some odd Pentagon leaders all signed a letter to trump saying not on our watch, we will be the constitution not the president of United States. So Trump fired them all in the next few months before the election because he wanted military leaders who would follow his orders. Trump then tried to use the military and the National Guard to keep him in office in his final days on January 6th. Trump dismantled and slowed down the post office, Trump dismantled And neutered the EPA, the CDC and other agencies. He specifically removed the part of the CDC that dealt with pandemics, which led to complications in our Covid response. Not to mention crime, and BLM riotsā¦ Trump made things worse. Should I have dressing any of the issues that people felt, he inflamed the situation. Letās face it you are twisted and bent. Literally nothing will change your mind because you were in a cult. You need to wake up and yes I donāt mean woke up I mean wake up you need to get some IQ points, watch something besides Fox News, and use your brain.

Kharma hymm ā Read an article on that cake incident and how it morphed from a contract issue to a religious freedoms issue at the SOCTUS level. Essentially... Girls enter their favorite neighborhood bakery in the gayborhood and place an order for a wedding cake, deposit was left, receipt w delivery date and deposit info on it, then 30-ish days later they go to pick it up and the shop says āNope, canāt do that.ā They sued and won on the contractural issue; Order, Deposit, Receipt w date of promised delivery. They won, the guy, shop appealed and won again and again on the contractural issue. At each step media attention grew, and money POURED in to support this guys āreligious rights and freedomsā which were never the issue or at risk. That was until it was appealed at the SCOTUS level on the basis of religious freedoms, and won the appeal. But.. . This is America, any store can put any sign in their window, NO SHIRT ā NO SERVICE, NO SHOES ā NO SERVICE, etc., there are two businesses here in Texas, a hardware shop and a diner that have signage that states āNO GAYSā in their window or doors. Thatās not an issue, this is America and they can serve whomever they want. People donāt do it often because itās bad for business. As a side note, as that bakers shop was in a gay area according to the article, he alienated his customers and went out of business. š Hope you found that interesting.
Edit, Not my place to give a verdict on your opinion. I do think everyoneās opinion should be an educated one though. Nowadays we tend to be told what our opinions should be. Like my relatives praising Fauci one day, then when he said Something Trump didnāt like, Trump trashes him and throws him under the bus. LOL! I mentioned to my relatives that Fauci was fine yesterday, heās 79 years old and has risen to the top medical post in the nation, he deserves our respect for his accomplishments. Holy Hell broke lose, heās a loser, an incompetent idiot. Etc., like he stopped being a Dr. and lost his 5 decades of experience in one night.

Why does Forbes twist the facts? The legal term is āWillful Retention.ā āāā 1. Trump WAS President, past tense NOT current. 2. Trump could have ārequestedā classified documents to be declassified, but DID NOT DO SO WHILE PRESIDENT. There is a process and Trump did not follow it. Had he done so, there would be a paper trail, if approved or denied. 3. Pence, Biden and Hillary had classified documents too, but THEY ALL COMPLIED with the FBI to return them, they notified the FBI when they were found. 4. Trump tried to keep them, he lied, had his attorney lie, jerked around the FBI for over a year before they searched. Thatās why the term āWILLFUL RETENTIONā is used, why Trump committed a crime. 5. There have been 3 known foreign agents at Mar a Lago, and there are still missing classified documents. Trump isnāt just looking a document crimes, or lying to investigators charges, Trump may face espionage charges. THAT IS WHY THIS IS SERIOUS!

Alternate Man ā Have you seen the ads for Uberā¢Freight? They are taking their app for rides to shipping. Why is this upsetting? Major carriers, Clearwater, Yellow Freight, Central Freight, etc., is going to be hit hard. Why deal with a dozen possible carriers and finding the lowest rate, when you can use an app to reverse the system and bypass them all, initially great for independents. But look at the companies financing the driverless trucking industry, you hear phrases like Driverless trucks donāt fall asleep at the wheel, they donāt need breaks, showers, and will never be distracted by texting while driving. It is seriously scary.

Kenneth Camp ā I love it, Republican defenders of trump canāt use their words and degenerate into name calling personal attacks and emotional tirades. You know you are defined by your actions and the company you keep, right. Being a member of the Republican does NOT make you religious or righteous by default, what you DO, SAY and SUPPORT does. If you support a President who has paid for 5 abortions, defrauded over 30,000 people (theft), had 73 known proven admitted affairs (all in the last decade), makes racist bigoted comments, is married to a former model-escort, and has 22 'unproven' rape accusations, YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN. You absolutely CANNOT support Trump or the Republican Party if you are a person of faith. PERIOD. There is a seemingly forgotten thing called the Ten Commandments that list a few things you should NOT do or ENDORSE. And by supporting trump or the Republican Party you are supporting and endorsing LIES, MURDER, PROSTITUTION, and THIEVERY to name a few. You canāt berate Warren and Pelosi and say nothing about the men who made the same comments, to do so just makes you a misogynistic simpleton. Just because the Republican Party has anti-abortion, and anti LGBT rights as stated goals or mission statements, does NOT make them true when you support a president with ZERO of these purported values. You canāt mask an ANTI-LGBT agenda behind religious freedoms verbiage, when "Religious Freedoms" were never threatened. These are basic human rights issues, how we treat the least of us IS A REFLECTION OF US. That is why Black Lives really do matter, LGBT and everyoneās lives matter. If a store can put a "No Shirt ā No Service" or a "No Gays" sign on their door (and they do), any business can select its customer base for ANY reason. When our CONSTITUTION states that no law may be made restricting religion, your religious freedoms ARE NOT THREATENED. Calling people names, personal attacks, that is the new Republican mandate. Get an education, rediscover your faith, and get some integrity and ethics while you are at it.

I get the irony, but please remember the Republican Party has fought AGAINST providing expectant mothers with prenatal care, job, housing and school protections, and adoption assistance. WE think itās about saving babies, the Republican Party thinks itās about the fight, hence zero compromises, they want the money the fight beings in from us pro-life supporters. Before you doubt me, research it, the reason they give is because it would incentivize pregnancies and weaken their anti-abortion fight. Letās be clear, the Republican Party wants nothing to do with helping the mothers in this situation, noting to do with assisting them to have the child, nothing to do with assisting in the adoption of children, itās all about the fight, which brings in the money.

Ā @jwfinley7808Ā ā The border is enough reason for impeachment? I agree, but itās too late. Over 5,000 died under Trumps zero tolerance policy, and over 5,000 children lost, separated forever from their parents. If Trumps committing treason three times wasnāt enough, his election fraud, whatās the killing of 5,000 Hispanics to a racist white nationalist party? Please, letās let that issue fade away, itās unenforceable, Trump gets a pass on that one.

Ā @georgeschnakenberg7808Ā ā You do realize that itās not split, right? IT IS A MAJORITY REPUBLICAN CONGRESS. In the past, pre-Trump, that they worked together for the good of their states and the country, right? Unless there was an issue, bills still got authored and passed by both sides. There are were zero bills passed because the Republican Party is split, and it is in chaos. Democrats have always voted on the merits of the bills, even in the ousting of McCarthy, removal of Santis, budget extensions, Dems voted.

IMHO, everyone here is missing the point, the REAL issue. Unions are a BUSINESS! The unions seek not to benefit the workers, people, or businesses, they seek to charge union members a monthly fee per employee, and promise the employees more money IF they unionize. The bottom line is simple, unions just want the money. There was a day when they were needed, there was a time when unions improved working conditions, but today, they are simply a burden.

Ā @kaganasmr6775Ā ā I have doubts about Joe Biden too, butā¦ so far the only actual āevidenceā that have found Joe helped Hunter make a car payment and got paid back, Hunter calls Biden in the presence of assumed Chineseā¦ people, and Joe and Hunter have said āI love youā and āI love you too dad.ā This is an election year, and they are looking desperately for something, anything to discredit Biden. And you know too they have bypassed law enforcement too, right? Congress can call the FBI and say investigate themā¦ and if there is any cause the FBI will. Just look at Trump paying two Russian firms to hack Hillaryās servers, and post a boatload of anti-Hillary ads all over social media. When Hillaryās people traced the break-in to Russia, they turned all of their info over to the FBI, who tapped Trumps campaign phones. Nothing prosecutable was found. Trump made a big deal over that, screaming FBI collusion and Corruption, and screamed LOCK HER UP because her email server got hacked but didnāt say HE, TRUMP, PAID TO HACK THEM! How do you not know all of this? š³

Ā @bobr1511Ā ā Did he? DeSantis doesnāt have the power to deport, because it already exists in I.C.E. in every state. When did the term sanctuary city come up? Last 6 years, so Trump. Itās a political term aimed at blaming majority democrat areas/cities for the problem. I.C.E. handles deportations, not city or state governments, but local lawyers do assist in mucking up the works. I agree completely, this is ALL about political division. Iāve never heard of the United Nations funding immigrants, Iāll look into that. The chant āThe left is not up holding the lawsā is a Fox News and NewsMax mantra, that is repeated to stir up and divide as well. Repetition is a brainwashing technique, which you NEED to be aware of. Just because you hear it all the time doesnāt make it true, just like the catchphrase āRepublicans are trying to destroy democracy and Americaā isnāt necessarily true. Republicans are fighting for control, exploring new ways to do it, and absolutely pushing boundariesā¦ like replacing electoral voters to overturn the popular voteā¦ which is an end to democracy if they succeed and one step closer to fascism.
Hereās how the government handles deportation: The Deportation Process
The United States may deport foreign nationals who participate in criminal acts, are a threat to public safety, or violate their visa.
Those who come to the U.S. without travel documents or with forged documents may be deported quickly without an immigration court hearing under an order of expedited removal (PDF, Download Adobe Reader). Others may go before a judge in a longer deportation (removal) process.
The foreign national may be held in a detention center prior to trial or deportation. See a map of ICE detention facilities or use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
An Immigration Court of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) hears the related case.
If a judge rules that the deportation proceeds, the receiving country of the person being deported must agree to accept them and issue travel documents before the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) carries out a removal order.
The majority of removals are carried out by air at U.S. government expense, although some removals may use a combination of air and ground transportation. Learn more about the removal of deported foreign nationals by air.
Criminal non-citizens who have committed nonviolent crimes may be subject to Rapid REPAT (PDF, Download Adobe Reader).

Please refresh our memory, how many businesses did Trump lead into bankruptcy? Oh and I lost count at 30,000 lawsuits in the decade before Trump became President, some class action lawsuits, most were small lawsuits brought by small businesses that Trump thought he could litigate to death instead of paying for his building and business supplies. Some laughable like business cards. Then thereās the common defense Trump used for lawsuits against him; āI just leased my name, I was not involved in planning, development, management or operations of [name of project]. Iām sorry investors/home buyers/students believed my verbal guarantees and promises, they should have read their contracts.ā Integrity matters, character matters, honesty matters, LEADERSHIP matters.

My own brother has turned into a liar, cheater (on his wife), and essentially believes as he is a Christian, as all Republicans are, he and other Republicans can do and say anything as THEY are fighting evil. So yes, if I know someone doesnāt give a damn about lies, theft, cheating, essentially has no ethics, I donāt want them on my team. As Republicans embody that valueless and ethically devoid mindset, how do you justify trusting them?

Ā @KingAntDaProphetĀ ā He was making the argument that Trans people arenāt real, which he has a partial point based on a false assumption. Republicans believe man created Man and Women, period. That there is no such thing as trans. I donāt get it either, Iām totally lost. But Iām not trans so I donāt have to. What I do believe is God made everyone, all animals and humans and plants, we are all as we are according to Gods grand design. We are not supposed to judge, we are to love our brothers and sisters (fellow mankind) and treat them as we would like to be treated. While I personally canāt imagine having surgery to change my sex, I am NOT about to judge someone else who walks a different path than I do. So if a trans person (Iāve only met two in my entire life) wants to be or considered to be a woman or a man, may god bless them and help them as I canāt imagine what they must be going through to take such a serious step. It does get me that Republicans constantly lie to enrage their followers to make their point seem stronger. It is against the law in every state to perform sex change surgery on anyone in the USA under 18 with the sole exception of California. I get that after surgery it is a non-reversible decision. I and every democrat I know want to give every child a chance to be happy, and SAFE, which in this case would mean that keeping that ban in place nationwide. Not that Iām against trans people, but simply because they are young and I have seen (watched a news broadcast) of a weird woman who actually sounded all for, as in 100% for transitioning her child and her son, seemed like āehh whatever, momās on a role.ā So would I like to see some precautions put in place to āallow interventionā IF a counselor, doctor or therapist felt something was off that warranted a deeper look. Everyone is for protecting children, but if the parents arenāt āpushing for a sex changeā but instead are accepting or resigned to it as they love their child, and doctors and councilors concur, I see no reason for anyone including the government to say otherwise. This America, we all have individual rights and that includes changing themselvesā¦ again, after age 18 as an adult. And Iām absolutely totally against treating LGBT people as less American, less human, less deserving or less equal to anyone else.

Ā @ohmydamn6807Ā ā You are as wrong as it gets. We are all products of our respective environments. Once you start to realize that EVERY Republican you know endorses Trump and other Republican lies, that all have sold their soul and country for a red hat, that NOTHING matters but pushing Republican everything down the throats of othersā¦ you recognize the trend. Do I think ALL Republicans are dishonest, no of course notā¦ but as soon as I hear anything remotely related to Trumpism, my defenses go up immediately and I am extremely cautious. About two years back at a managers meeting with our VP one was venting about a āLesbian freakā in his group, how she didnāt fit in, how he hated her, how she was a lousy employee, etc. I thought for moment, and offered to take her, explaining that Iāve seen her work on our projects and it was detailed and accurate. If she stays there (working for him) and if he fires her or she quits, sheās going to have a perfect well documented lawsuit and we will end up writing her and her lawyers a 5 million dollar or more check. I answered a few questions, as a director I needed to talk to all of my managers for where she might fit best, and assured the VP that she still might not work out, but at least by transferring her, and treating it as an opportunity, if she is eventually fired it wonāt be because she is a lesbian, and we will not risk a lawsuit. The transition was done, we did have some personality as she wasā¦ at times an opinionated and verbally aggressive individual LOL! She worked out well eventually and is doing a great job.

WOW! We have a lot of very smart geniuses here! I am NO expert, but I do know a little about random predictability. Some numbers occur more frequently than others, any number that has not been chosen recently has a slightly higher statistically better chance. Then calculate the weight of the ping pong balls including the almost insignificant weight of the ink, plus the thickness and area of the numbers on the balls. Combine your ball weights, heavier means more frequent draws, with the random number occurrences of the ping-pong balls. Chose 3-4 high occurring numbers and 2-3 low occurring numbers, play, make money. If youāve been following this so far, good for you. Now please know that I just pulled all this information out of my ass. Yup made it all up, itās worthless. Please donāt hate me. My point was simple, the only guy who understands his simple code was the guy who wrote it. LOL! š¤Ŗšš³š¤

If he lies in court when asked directly by a judge, yes. A lawyer can lose his license and be disbarred. But a lawyer is allowed to lie to defend or protect a client. For example thereās a clip of Trumpās lawyers in court being asked repeatedly āwere there any poll watchers in the room,ā and the lawyers sidestepped the question saying they couldnāt see, their view was bad, their view was blocked. The judge got very direct and demanded a yes or no answer, it was āYes,ā and the judge dismissed the case.
Edit: To be clear, before the case started, they can lie, they can make false statements, but cannot lie, commit perjury themselves when asked questions by a judge. The lawsuit mentioned asserted that poll watchers were not allowed to be in the room as the poll workers and were seeking a mistrial. They can lie to bring the lawsuit, they can lie to people or the press, but cannot lie to a judge when asked a question in court.

All yāall are dumb as a rock. Democrats donāt want your guns because it would mean giving up their guns too. LMAO! YOU... ALL Y'ALL have swallowed the same type of misinformation pill that this video has enlightened us about. Journalists didnāt do due diligence in their reporting and simply believed the study from this guy as told. The Republican Party tells you "DEMOCRATS WANT TO TAKE YOUR GUNS AWAY!" and you believe it without question. DUH! That is the oldest political trick in the book, find an issue, point to a group, and say WE are the cure, fix or solution. The JEWS take your money, control the economy, and your jobs! LOCK THEM UP! The MEXICANS are criminals, they take your jobs, and steal your money! BUILD A WALL, LOCK THEM UP! The DEMOCRATS are demonic, unchristian, baby killers and want your guns! LOCK THEM UP, VOTE FOR US! Hello? Why does no one see this? Iām a democrat, Iām a CHL holder, I am Pro-Life, I am a financial conservative, and I am a Christian. When will we wake up and realize that we are being manipulated?

Marshall 4 ā If what you say is true, then that is very scary indeed. But you do know that at some point there will be a reckoning, right? Every single gun law is fought like their lives depend on it by the NRA and the Republican Party, and yes, some Democrats. For example, a recent bill that was shot down, no pun intended, was to adopt gun control issues like Switzerland has done, to TRACK ALL WEAPONS SALES. The plan was tiered, one create a phone app where anyone wishing to sell a gun could never their info, the guns info, and then the buyers name and info, inc., a pic of the buyers ID, the buyer, and they would get back a simple red, yellow or green, DENIED, WAIT FOR FURTHER APPROVAL, and APPROVED. The app could do a simple check of the names against the names/addresses of people who cannot own a weapon. Most people are honest, and eventually most guns would be traceable as they are bought and sold. Switzerland has almost as many guns per capital as the USA, and a fraction of the multiple shootings. After the software and apps were proven, the plan was to make it a misdemeanor (traffic ticket type of offense) to not track or inform of the sale of your gun. For example if you bought a few rifles, and found you didnāt like one, and sold it... without using the app to track it, and that gun was later resold or used in a crime, you might be required to explain to a judge why you sold it without a chain of ownership. You wouldnāt be held responsible for the crime if any the gun was used in, you would be asked why you didnāt follow procedure. Next, gun security. If you can afford a $400 gun, you can afford a $100 gun safe, more guns, bigger safe. Why?
80 to 90% of all guns used in mass shootings in the USA are obtained either a) Stolen from a friend, neighbor or family member that the shooter KNEW had unsecured weapons in their house. Or b) Purchased at a public or private sale such as a garage, yard, or parking lot sale, or at swap meets or other individual sales. A simple thing such as an app that would do a quick and dirty background check would at least help law abiding citizens keep guns away from people who should not have them. Requiring guns to be secured in a safe instead of left open in your nightstand would also prevent guns from getting in the right hands.
Why were these plans scrapped? Because the NRA and the Republican's fought it. Why? It doesnāt interfere with the 2nd amendment, it doesnāt restrict gun sales or what an individual can purchase. The bill was fought and stopped because Hitlerās first step was to register weapons before he took them away, so out of fear of taking our guns away they killed the bill. But countries like Switzerland have done this for decades!
Here is my point, every mass shooting, the anger at the lack of change, the lack of action, GROWS. Politicians MUST show they are willing to help stop gun violence or they wonāt be elected. Want to know something else? Look at countries like Australia that had gun ownership and did not take action after mass shootings, THEY BANNED GUNS ENTIRELY! Want to know what will happen if the Republican Party and the NRA keep fighting EVERY CHANGE? Eventually we will lose our second amendment rights just like Australia. Donāt want your guns taken away just like I donāt? MOTIVATE THE NRA AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO PICK THEIR GROUND TO STAND ON, AND HELP PASS LAWS CHANGING SOMETHING! Because trust me, if you fight everything, eventually there will be a public outcry so severe all guns will be outlawed.

brjema1 ā Thank you for proving my point. Seriously you did great. If we resist all common sense changes, even as simple as requiring guns to be secured while not on your person, the political climate will change and we will lose more than we ever intended, even a change to the 2nd amendment is possible, if not probable. Quote all the facts you Duffusās want, irrelevant. If we do not decide what changes are acceptable, and ENDORSE THEM, we will lose our second amendment rights. Just give it a few more mass shootings, and public opinion will shift more, and more until the ELECTED lawmakers make a knee jerk over-reaction. Not joking. Quit the blame the democrats party line and wake up. When you fight EVERYTHING and EVERYONE, refusing to make any concessions, we will lose everything. Unless... like the Republicanās false stance on abortion, itās not about results, itās about maintaining the money flow, this is all a plan to keep money coming in. LMAO!

Marshall 4 ā You clueless dolt. The Bill of Rights is the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution. ... It guarantees civil rights and liberties to the individualālike freedom of speech, press, and religion. It sets rules for due process of law and reserves all powers not delegated to the Federal Government to the people or the States. They are not separate. Second, I wasnāt joking 80-90% of all guns used in mass shootings are taken from friends, family, and NEIGHBORS who know you have unsecured weapons, and from private sales. How protected are your guns if you go visit a relative, go to a movie, or take the boat to the lake. And WHY if you can afford multiple firearms, a home, etc., are you NOT ABLE TO AFFORD A $100-500 GUN SAFE? And please tell me how your right to bear arms is hindered in anyway by a gun safe? The gunsafe in my dresser takes less than a second to open with either a finger print or 3-4 seconds by the 4 digit code.

Angelo Morte ā Only new purchases must be registered, and it must be done by the FFL aka gun store. Any private citizen can sell or give his weapon to whomever wherever. And short of getting the police chiefs O.K., itās the same in Texas. Photos, id's, fingerprints, background check, gun safety and proficiency class, including a short range test and bingo, you have a CHL. Had a friend who flew into NYC, and as he had checked New Yorkās reciprocal CHL agreements were in place he checked his gun. Landed, picked up his baggage, and was arrested.

carl atamanczyk ā "Outlaw hunting? Lock up public lands? And kill babies?" Seriously? Iāve never ever heard of anyone wanting to outlaw hunting or lock up public lands, ever! And dude, have you looked at the differences between the rep's anti-Abortion stance and the dem's Pro-Life stance? Rep's want to make abortion a murder offense for the mother and doctor. THIS HAS BEEN DONE, and the effect was driving desperate mothers to back room coat hanger abortions performed by non medical personnel. Pro-Life wants to institute a 3 to 7 day wait, use religious and government funds, to work with a counselor to explain the assistance with school, work, housing, prenatal care, assistance with adoption, and yes... if still desired abortion. Their plan would save lives TODAY, NOW! But every single step of this plan is fought tooth and nail by the evangelical community and the Republican Party. THINK about that PLEASE! Why? Why would they not want to save lives now? Why pour every cent, billions into fighting FOR the anti-abortion plans while spending zero in efforts to assist the mothers in that situation and providing them with options to keep the child alive? How do you not see that it is not about saving babies? Itās about keeping the evangelical religious right AND their MONEY flowing into the Republicanās war chest! I am not joking, they have been fighting to overturn Roe vs. Wade for 46 YEARS! They REFUSE to make any concessions! They fight AGAINST saving babies lives, they fight against any delays, against prenatal care, against passing laws that would help pregnant mothers handle school, work, living expenses, birth/hospital expenses! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY BABIES LIVES WOULD BE SAVED TODAY HAD THEY NOT FOUGHT EVERY IDEA? In 46 years there have been 60,000,000 abortions. You call Democrats baby killers, when you are fighting EVERY EFFORT TO GIVE OPTIONS TO THE MOTHERS! You are all being manipulated and you donāt even realize it!!! And the kicker is, according to trumps legal filings Trump has paid for 5 abortions. Not joking!

Zaphod Bebelbrox ā Dude, your "Rights" are to bear arms, I.e. own weapons. How the hell am I or anyone infringing on your Rights by requiring registration of weapons? How can requiring you to lock up and secure weapons not on your person also an infringement of your so called rights? Iāve asked you this question before and you did not respond? My point is simple, please do pay attention...
1. We know where weapons that are used in mass shootings come from. Why not close these avenues?
2. Every single mass shooting changes public opinion a little, eventually it will literally force politicians who want to remain in office to act, or be replaced. If YOU continue to fight every common sense effort to control gun VIOLENCE (not weapons), eventually you, we, all of us, will live to see the 2nd amendment stricken from the constitution. As I said before... doubt me look at Europe, look at Australia. It has already happened in our time.
3. I NEVER said a single thing that would affect your right to own a weapon. I NEVER said that I know that no one secures their guns. You sir are not just an idiot, a simpleton and a dolt, you are a liar.
Pity you canāt read. May I suggest a class?

captain memelord ā Well... if yāall canāt understand politics, and know that our constitution is written in pencil by politicians, who are elected, and must respond to the citizens concerns or not get re-elected, and donāt see the trend of the major shift in politicians stances on gun rights... they are not intelligent and actually are dolts and simpletons. My point is simple, we all want to keep our 2nd amendment rights. But with every public shooting public opinion shifts, the people voice their concerns to the politicians, who feed on public perception. They want to be elected and stay elected so they listen, and make changes. This is like an earthquake fault line; every death shifts public opinion more, which pressures politicians, the NRA is completely unyielding in its support and fights EVERY effort to reduce the carnage. This is like a big rubber band or fault line, pressure builds until something snaps, breaks, then thereās a knee jerk overwhelming demand for change. The "Quake" is coming and it will be your fault. But yāall donāt see what is obvious! You keep burying your head in the sand and ignoring every effort to reduce the violence. I am trying to prevent this so I can keep my guns. Everything I have said is not false, is not lies, and you know it. You canāt support your argument, so you try and discount the person speaking.

captain memelord ā I never said it was right, just that there is a growing trend. Those public people are just parents and other groups who are concerned about what they see as a trend on the news. We are all products of our environment, we learn, good bad right or wrong itās all absorbed. What you see as a Democrat problem is a massive misunderstanding of the problem. Yes, itās very apparent in the presidential wannabes in the Democratic Party now, but thatās just because itās whatās currently getting press. Donāt think for a moment that concerned parents and citizens is just a democratic thing, itās EVERYONE's thing. What Iām saying is that we are fighting every possible effort to curb gun violence in the name of protecting our second amendment rights, which is wrong. If we donāt PICK WHAT CONCESSIONS we can accept, it will be eventually be taken out of our hands completely by elected officials responding to pressure from their constituents. We are strong in our belief that the second amendment is written in stone, when in truth the beauty of our constitution is that it can be changed, and has been changed in the past. We know where weapons come from that are most often used in mass shootings, private sales and thefts. NOW is the time to at least seem like we are trying to reduce these events, because the clock is ticking for when we will not be given a choice. Our choice is simple, WE can either be a part of the solution or the problem. And right now, second amendment people, the NRA, we are being perceived as part of the problem.

I do day trading, have rental properties, and flip homes. Iāve bought a boatload of Samsung TVās and appliances. Problems happen, and the issues with EVERY FREAKING SAMSUNG PRODUCT is they fight all warranty issues tooth and nail. A $300 TV that dies 6 months into service, that not a big deal. However when a $3,500 refrigerator, a $2,700 stove, or whatever fails a few months into service you start noticing a trend. The constant āWe need your āoriginalā receipt,ā which was sent to them, or āwe show that (appliance) was sold to Home Depot, Loweās, Best Buy (or whatever), not you. The warranty is to the original purchaser only.ā Samsung products HAVE NO WARRANTY BECAUSE THE CORPORATION CHEATS ITS CUSTOMERS out of any possible warranty repair they can.

Keep in mind that these people are driving in traffic next to, in front of and behind you. They arenāt joking, they absolutely totally believe in their specific causes and belief. My point, donāt laugh, this is actually some very serious shit. These are the Trumpets, the UFO abductees, and the politicians we have elected, they the Republicans that refuse to listen to logic or medical advice, and believe all news other than NewsMax or FOX is false news, they represent 50% of the nation, and just elected another devout believer to be governor of Virginia.
My point: BE SCARED

Ā @robinettbanister1236Ā ā Have they voted yet? We have a criminal state tax assessor, a lying governor and a corrupt evil lying Representative Cruz who just got re-elected. Iāll buy you a coke if this happens, I just canāt see it. Corruption, zero ethics, lies, deception is all the Republican Party has become in the last 6+ years. Just look at their acceptance of Trump, all the lies, corruption, affairs, trips to Epsteinās island and parties, itās all normal for them. They think itās not trumps fault, women are just attracted to powerful men, Trumps a manās man. š¤®

@ ā Builders, construction, food service, Growers and meat processing plants from California to Florida have issues with employees not showing up to harvest or pack as they are in hiding. Americans donāt want these jobs, and this will have unintended consequences. We ALL want secure borders, but we also like low prices, and we Americans donāt like hard labor jobs. We arenāt thinking this through, we are not planning ahead, or asking what the best way to proceed is. Letās put this differently, we donāt like China, so letās declare all Chinese products and parts illegal, to be destroyed immediately. So in the weeks following that decision, America stops as we canāt travel, communicate, cook, drive, fly, nothing works because EVERYTHING has Chinese parts. Hello?

Ā @vvm101Ā ā No silly. Impeachment is a two step process. 1. House of Representatives votes to impeach. 2. The Senate votes to confirm, essentially saying that what he was impeached for warrants removal from office. We have never had a President impeached, the closest we have had was Nixon, who resigned when he was told the senate had enough votes to remove him from office. In Trumps first impeachment the Senate waived witness testimony, saying it was not necessary, they admitted to the presidents crimes. They said they werenāt there to determine his guilt, that had been done, they (the senate) were there to determine if those crimes warranted removal from office. The senate voted no, the crimes (withholding aid to Ukraine and obstructing the investigation) were NOT grounds for removal from office. Of course Trump spun it as he was found innocent, completely exonerated, which was completely false. Grey area I know, but thatās politics. If the senate passes the trial phase, even though it seems pointless as it will be after January 20th, then Trump would be ineligible to run for public office again. Hope this helps.

Damn, almost double the dislikes than the likes. Trumpets must HATE USA Today for putting this out. I can hear my coworkers and relatives now, screaming, calling it all lies, false news. Dolts. Bottom line, all evidence points to global warming as fact. Is it mankindās doing? Donāt know... but if we deny it, it becomes an extinction level event and we all deserve to die. Wouldnāt it make more sense to attempt to mitigate mans influence IF ANY, and also plan on how mankind can adapt? Believe it or not, the effects are real, worsening, and if you have a brain and give a flying F' about your children... work towards survival not self-Annihilation.

YoYo ā The protests started because Hong Kong conceded with Chinas demand for the transfer of "Dissidents" from Hong Kong to China, several bloggers and people who had spoken out against Chinas policies have disappeared as a result. And if you know your history, following WW2, China agreed to allow Hong Kongās independence for 99 years or through 2046 at least. China has not honored the treaty and agreement they signed. The people of Hong Kong have had a taste of freedom and want to stay free. Your point that USA would not allow a city to separate from the rest of the USA is irrelevant, as the situations are completely different. The issue isnāt the people of Hong Kong, itās China's failure to honor their own treaty. Please take you inane propaganda rhetoric elsewhere. And by the way, yes. I live in Texas, which is technically a republic not a state. Every dozen years or so some wackos decide to push for Texas's independence again, to become a country again. While doubtful, if Texas ever voted to withdraw as a state, I would like to believe that the USA would honor their decision and allow it. Why we (USA) arenāt or the UN arenāt putting troops on the ground in Hong Kong is beyond me, what China is doing is wrong as hell. Hong Kong has 99 years of independence, the people want to keep their autonomy, China IMHO needs an attitude adjustment. All China has to do is honor their word, honor the treaty, take a step back and the violence would stop. And for your information, if China tried what they are doing to Hong Kong on US citizens, Iād be right there with them fighting for my freedom. It would be a last result but if the US tried to imprison Journalists for voicing their opinions, I am thinking itād be a civil war event of epic proportions, just like it is in Hong Kong, perhaps worse. Freedom is never easy or free. The world is watching China's actions and we are not happy. That you are attempting to paint Chinaās actions as anything other than an epic human rights violation is deplorable.

Ye Tian, then you would assume wrong. The police I assume are wearing masks for their safety, as the rioters have gotten violent. The protesters are I assume wearing masks because they fear government retribution in the form of imprisonment or worse. Should protestors who are violent against property or people be caught, tried, and jailed? ABSOLUTELY! Should the police be held accountable for their actions of beating and sending peaceful protestors to the hospital? ABSOLUTELY! There are all kind of wrongs being committed on all sides. My point is simple, these issues started for a REASON, the peopleās, the citizens concerns sure sounded valid to us over here on another continent! Imprisoning people for SPEAKING or WRITING something that China doesnāt like? Holy hell! Iām simply saying that China doesnāt need to CONTROL its people, they need to treat them with the respect they deserve. God knows America isnāt perfect, we are a work in progress. The only constant in life is change. Hong Kongās people have grown to LIKE their autonomy and freedoms from what some would call China's oppressive government. So what? There is absolutely nothing wrong with trying to make a better life for yourself and your friends and family. But why the hell os China so concerned with Hong Kongās people? Hong Kong is still China, seriously, what is the harm in just letting Hong Kong have and enjoy the few freedoms they have come to enjoy? Why not say O.K., ENOUGH! We will catch, try (as in have a trial), and arrest the individuals who we can prove have injured or damaged property, in Hong Kong, and no one will be transferred from Hong Kong to China against their will. And yes, I also think police should be held accountable for their actions as well as the videos of police beating the crap out of citizens are everywhere in the news here in the states. Thereās a hell of a lot of blame to go around. But this interference from China on Hong Kongās people, I donāt give a shit why it happened, an agreement is an agreement, Hong Kong has 99 years of self government, China needs to honor that promise. Locking up people because you donāt like what they said, is as wrong as it gets. Demanding that these people be transferred to Chinaās prisons, also wrong. Right now all yāall just have citizens rioting. Whatās next? How far is China willing to go? Whatās next, dropping bombs and killing their own people? You seem to think that China has the right to "take Hong Kong back" when Hong Kong is, was, and has always been a part of China! Seriously, the people your police are beating and sending to the hospital are your own people! Why in hell cant the leaders of China and Hong Kong meet, shake hands, and say letās just take a step back and see if we can pick up where we left off? Because if this escalates... youāre talking civil war. And in war, there are no winners, both sides lose.

YoYo ā You are one clueless idiot. I follow several YouTubeārs who live in China, my friends wife is from China. I have heard about 'some' of the violence against police officers, but from my perspective some of that hate is earned, not justified, just earned. You donāt know me, Iām as non violent as it gets. But I also know from watching some of the videos of Hong Kongās police beating what appear to be peaceful protestors, that if I were there in person, I would be helping to stop the police, just as I would help prevent harm to an officer. You seem to have a clear bias for the Chinese government, mind if I ask why that is? Because you donāt seem to be a fair minded individual, you donāt seem to have a balanced perspective. Hell... you seem mentally imbalanced. Why would you try and convince anyone that China has any right to kill its own people? Why would you be so hell bent on convincing anyone that the people of Hong Kong are the bad guys here? You accuse me of having a preference against China, when the truth of the matter is I have a lot of respect for China, what they have accomplished is awesome! Your country has in 40 years completely transformed itself! Kudos! Good for you! But why are you so biased against your own people? Hong Kong IS part of China! Why do YOU not see the differences between China and Hong Kong as a good thing? Strength through diversity, itās all good! You think me ignorant, as I do you. You think the people of Hong Kong are the problem, and I think you arenāt seeing the big picture. China is Hong Kong, Hong Kong is China. You are NOT separate, you are two halves of a coin. Hong Kong has tasted freedom, and they donāt want to go backwards. So what? Why is China threatened by that? Do you have a clue how incredibly epically stupid that makes China look? China threatened by a single city? China trying to control a single city? China is HUGE! Itās people are amazing... yet you canāt take a 20 year old kid standing up and daring to be different? China has to control everyone in a city? Why?

@@Joesmith-mg6xd ā Iām not for or against unions. There are benefits, and unintended consequences too. There was a Xerox plant that had a union strike nearby (again, years ago) and when the workers were on their second day, news cameras showed FOR LEASE SIGNS out front. Xerox just moved everything elsewhere. I found that interesting too. IMO, keeping trained, good, productive employees is smart, Iāve worked for companies that made it clear you were replaceable, and can say with zero hesitation that is not the best environment. Sadly this āunion bustingā mindset of Starbucks will cost them business. Case in point, I used to go to the same Starbucks every morning before work, theā¦ I forget what you call the coffee maker dudeā¦ would have my cup ready before I paid. Not joking, Iād walk in, heād see me, smile and by the time I made it to the register my Quad venti latte with 2 raw sugars was there with my name on it. When he found another job, I quit going.

I find it impossible to believe how many people think Trump is NOT guilty, we all watch the news, we all know that he pulled out every trick and tactic to win, we know that while there were small issues, nothing was found that would alter the outcome of the vote count not just nationwide, but in any state or PRECINCT. IF you follow the law at all, politics at all, you know Trump is guilty, the only question is to what degree. And seriously, the Republican Party has become a party based on lies, how the hell do we trust anything from any Republican at this point?
As far as Biden, he was no oneās first pick ā But he wasnāt Trump. Why are no Republicans questioning WHY all of this Biden this and that is coming up now? Could it be a distraction like when Trump held a cabinet meeting to discuss āhow to distract from the impeachment hearingsā and he selected ākill Iran General on Iraq soilā from a bullet list saying āMy people will like thatā? We have ALL heard the accusations, and laughed at the witness testimonies that supposedly said whatever and it ended up being nothing. All the hoopla screams and Republican witnesses that turned out to be known Chinese spies, and their most recent witnesses most damning testimony was āHunter called his dad, they talked about dinner plans.ā I get it, I donāt like Biden but Iād rather have a kindly old man in the white house over an evil lying conman. Hunter Biden is a worthless individual, yet there has so far been zero testimony that indicates a crime.

Ā @friendsofjimmysĀ ā You know politicians have people with clearances who handle documents they are supposed to read as part of their job. Not policy but everyone does it. Wanna know why Biden, Bush, Pence, and Hillary arenāt being charged? Because they either contacted the FBI or National Archives when the documents were discovered OR when advised of missing documents they complied with their return. Trump lied, delayed, had his lawyer lie, moved documents to KEEP them, and mucked around because he wrongly thinks he has that right. The legal term is WILLFUL RETENTION. Want to know why it was a big deal? Because three confirmed spies, two Russian and one Chinese have been confirmed to have visited Trump dozens of times, Secret Service logged them and THERE ARE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS STILL MISSING! That is an espionage charge, not returning documents is the least of Trumps issues, the what and why may land him in prison for the rest of his life. He will be pardoned, he will spin this and lie, and you dolts will believe him!

Mike G ā Obama didnāt make marriage equality law, the SCOTUS did. And when you look at why, the number of inequalities a subgroup of the USA were subjected to, paying more taxes, no access to their partners health care, retirement benefits, etc., it was clearly prejudiced. And how do you not know why we are at war? Reagan passed a law that greatly limited what the congress and senate could do, from raises to increasing spending on any issue Iād the budget was not balanced. Thatās why Clinton worked to balance the budget, which he kinda did 2 years, but he did it by postponing multiple big ticket items until the following year. And it just may be why we have been at war (against terrorism) ever since 911. Wake up!

Ā @stagger9660Ā ā No they arenāt. But they have has several āspyingā incidents in the past couple of years, one resulted in the expulsion or almost the entire Chinese embassy in California as they had set up a massive internet and wireless interception/eavesdropping system to monitor and report as much as possible from Silicon Valley companies back home. This is not a theoretical question, they ARE spying, not necessarily only on government, but on every U.S. tech company. We, U.S. believe business and government are separate, but in China itās all the government, with ties into everything. TikTok is but one Chinese tool, and the little program sends massive amounts of data, selectively, back to corporate. EVERY SINGLE US GOVERNMENT OR BUSINESS SHOULD BAN TICTOK FROM EVERY DEVICE IN THEIR CONTROL. Look at some of the reports of monitoring access data, emails, photos, voice messages (attachments), schedules and documents can be and have been flagged and found accessed and transferred by the TICTOK app back to TICTOK, and presumably to China. Again, this is not could be what if or maybes, these are known facts. Companies have seen patents filed and products on other countryās shelves that were still in the planning stages, that could only have been stolen through electronic means, often traced to company emails accessed on tablets/phones with TicTok apps installed.

Ā @annaschmidt853Ā ā clearly you didnāt read my other comments. Read 1 Corinthians 6-11 āAnd such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.ā
All things are lawful, Christianās are saved, justified and Sanctified by God. Why do you think Trumps 30,000+ lies were acceptable? Trump committed Treason TWICE yet God spared him and kept him in office! Trumpās legal records showing 5 abortions, his defrauding over 30,000 people (theft) were also a non issue as God forgave him. NOTHING MATTERS when doing Gods will, ALL THINGS ARE PERMISSIBLE because WE are doing Gods will.

Ā @jerry42023Ā ā I said no such thing, and wouldnāt have as Iāve heard no facts. Everything on Fox/NewsMax/OAN appears to be speculation, no reputable news organization has joined in, and while the rumors appear possibly true, the evidence has not been present with the speculation. If true, Biden will lose the election as Democrats DO care about integrity. I am suspect why though you arenāt aware that just because something is repeated over and over doesnāt make it true, and why no one is asking why now? The āBIDEN IS A CRIMINAL ā IMPEACH BIDEN!ā Mantra is everywhere, growing louder as Trumpās trials loom nearer. As we know Trump & the Republican playbook is D-Word strategies; Delay, Distract, Disassociate, Deny, Destroy, Distance, Deflect, Disinformation, etc., this has all the appearances of a smoke screen to muddy the waters. Kind of like holding a meeting titled āHow to distract from the Impeachment hearingsā and deciding to kill an Iranian General on Iraq soil, because āmy people will like that.ā And letās be clear, Biden was no oneās first choice for President, we didnāt vote for Biden, we voted against Trump. BIG DIFFERENCE.

TheNajSD ā You might want to at least TRY to keep up. Want the skinny on what President did what to our national debt? https://www.thebalance.com/deficit-by-president-what-budget-deficits-hide-3306151. History lesson; Reagan passed a law limiting spending and other items such as government, senate and congressional raises, etc., EXCEPT DURING TIMES OF WAR. Clinton followed, and that law proved troublesome, but he tried, he balanced the budget for the last 4 years of his presidency, the last president to do so. Bush Jr took office and then 911 "happened" and we have been at war ever since. Ever wonder why we are STILL in Iraq and Afghanistan twenty years later?
Yes, SOME of the myriad of democratic candidates have some very socialist values, scary indeed. But are the best of them worse than trump? Keep in mind that the Republican Party was once a party of faith. Their mission statement was the Ten Commandments, Thou shall not kill, lie, commit adultery, steal, etc. yet they elected a president that has paid for 5 abortions that we know of, lies a verified average of 15 times a day, had 73 known affairs, and defrauded well over 30,000 people. All of these facts are from the GOPās 2012 opposition papers when trump ran as an independent, and from his lawsuits, the legal filings. And if you look at the facts, our nation IS undereducated, we are the actual bottom of all modern countries. Every push for education, such as the college loan program has HELPED our economy as these people enter the job market. Did you know that college has grown so expensive that even at the low 4% interest rates, they are expected to be paying for college the rest of their lives! And no I am not advocating for free college, but college assistance should be increased as it helps our economy.

jack b ā Do you have a day job Jack? Your anti-gay, homophobic, and in this case balanced but hidden agenda posts are freaking everywhere! You argue for God, yet say that God is wrong. You accept and support Trump with his lies, thefts, murders, and adultery, yet decry Pete Buttigieg for being gay. You are one sick twisted judgmental thoughtless dolt, a true gravy sucking pig. You cannot stand for lies, theft, murder, adultery, and prostitution AND treat homosexuality as the big bad. You are a walking, typing, dichotomy of rational thought.

Ā @own4801Ā ā Have you not been to church? Gays are an abomination in Gods eyes. They think should be killed, they should not be allowed to exist in the world with the righteous. That is their goal, is to eradicate LGBT people. I a decade ago they wanted to put all LGBT people on Manhattan Island, and make it a prison, the idea failed when Republicans were informed that it would not be feasible in such a small space as there are just too many gays. They probably should start with an entire state such as Rhode Island. When I asked my church ā shouldnāt we be ministering to the LGBT people?ā They responded āit doesnāt matter. They are gay. They are going to hell, if they are harassed and commit suicide, they are going to hell. It doesnāt matter!ā All of the kinder parts of the Bible, do not apply. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, well, Jesus didnāt mean that towards homosexuals. Judgment is mine, says the lord doesnāt matter because they think it is their job to eradicate sin, it is biblical.

rik999 ā LOL! I didnāt mean spontaneously you silly goose! Many years ago I owned a Suzuki, it ran great, but if it fell or got knocked over you had to replace the turn signal lights on that side. I got cut off once and had to lay it down and so did my girlfriend on her Honda. We were both fine, but my bike needed to go to the shop, AGAIN, as both turn signal lights, the rear view mirror and the muffler bracket all had to be replaced. If the wind blows hard, if you bump something, if you get too close to a bush, you have to spend $100 to fix something. But her Honda experienced only a few scratches, the turn signals, the mirror, were all on rubber or rubber over spring mechanisms and simply folded back, the outer edges got scratched but everything was fine. Her muffler was attached with a rubber over metal bracket, a yank fixed it. Suzuki's muffler is balanced on the side with a plastic bracket. If you LOOK at this video, you see the same type of components on each bike, plastic that has thin points where they are meant to be snapped off and NOT BEND. Hondaās and other components are meant to bend back, and usually snap back into place after any minor bump or drop. Yeah, yeah, I know... just a few bucks. But over time while I owned that bike I spent $300-$500 or more each year on minor UNNECESSARY repairs, that no other motorcycle manufacturer makes their owners do. Sorry, good bike, bad design IMHO.

I'd like to hear fellow Republicans justify how they can vote for someone who is a liar. Repeatedly Abbott has lied, over and over. People here say that they support Abbott's stance on economy, crime, border, taxes, 2nd amendment rights, schools, protections for the unborn. Yet how do they know when Abbott's first impulse about Uvalde was to lie, then when caught lying, deny it until it was proven by video... So schools and crime are unknowns. Abbott's proven track record for big business when it screws the citizens is also known... So economy, taxes, who knows what else is also a big unknown. Border? Abbott views brown people, Hispanics, like Trump does, considers them all thieves, rapists and murderers, and his border policy is pure theatrics and again, lies. 2nd amendment rights... Yes, he supports them unconditionally. However that also puts kids and people at risk because of zero changes made to protect schools and public areas.

Ā @paulmccarthy5072Ā ā Iām sure it is, maybe, in some situations, if you have proof and witnesses. But once you take that step they (city/state police and prosecutors) are going to throw the book at you for capital life-ending-event. I had a 87 year old neighbor that āresisted arrestā when they came to his door. The court and legal expenses started at $25k, increased to $50k, then an additional $75k before he went to trial nearly bankrupted the man. All because he didnāt see them enter his house (4 strokes, legally blind), and was surprised when they said āDonāt turn away from me!ā (He essentially freaked out when they grabbed him and turned him around.) WW2 vet, and when he passed away at 91 the case was still haunting him, unresolved. My point is only that while we āmay have the right,ā but the burden of proof is ALL on us, itās expensive as hell, and in his case, the city had unlimited funds, and he paid dearly. You might āthinkā you are right in defending yourself, but can you PROVE it in court? I like your thinking, but I would never ever deliberately put myself in that position.

No, LOL! Think please, DOUBLE THAT.
EXPORT TARIFFS: If we (USA) tariff U.S. exports, those are paid by the selling/manufacturing company when PURCHASED by a company in another country, resulting in a higher price for THEM, the consumers in that respective country. This is bad as it means our products cost even more, and we, America, sell less and export less.
IMPORT TARIFFS: Say the US built automotive plant, or John Deer farming equipment plant, or farmers in Mexico ship theirs goods to America, the purchaser here in America pays that and adds that expense to the product cost, so a car valued at $50k becomes $63,500. Note that as every step adds a percentage of profit, Ford/GM, or Food Distribution company adds more as they need to sell it for more and retain their profit percentage, as to transport companies, and retailers too.
SUMMARY: Say Canada Lumber costs $100 and Canada adds 25%, then when the American company buys it the cost is $125. The U.S. adds 25%, so the Lumber now costs $156.25, over 50% more.

Letās be clear, the Republican Party ABSOLUTELY has become more racist in the past 5 years. There has been zero disassociation or distancing of the KKK, white nationalist, or other racist groups flying their confederate flags high at Republican conventions and meetings. Trump called them fine people, shook the hands of KKK hat and t-shirt wearing fans. Yeah, yeah, yeah, WEEKS later Trump did, haltingly, hesitatingly disavow the Proud Boys when pushed HARD in an interview, after being repeatedly pushed and challenged āYou wonāt do it will you, you wonāt distance yourself, then do it. Say it. You canāt can you?ā Then Trump did. This is insanity! Half the nation should NOT be so accepting of racists! This is a disgusting picture of America.

Ā @DrtydeedsĀ ā No, the goalposts have not shifted. If they were ANY lower employee not a high level politician they would all be in prison. Sadly, what would land some people in either jail or the unemployment line (for taking Top Secret or TS/SCI papers home) does not automatically land a congressman/senator, head of state or VP or President in hot water. They have people that carry the papers, and for some reason that makes them only partially responsible. All I know is the term āWillful Retentionā is key on wether or not it is prosecutable for these elected officials. Presidents/VPās donāt always lose their TS status when they leave office, many hold that status as long as they are working on/with other elected politicians. I get your point, Biden did what Trump did. Research it, PLEASE. The difference is āwillful retention.ā Biden and Hilary were either informed or asked if they had secret documents, Hilary searched for, found and returned them. Bidenās team found them, then searched elsewhere and found more, in both cases they were immediately (within a day) returned. They worked with trump for about a year, he denied it, he lied, he had his lawyer sign off on a āwe searched and no such documents existā letter that may cost her legal license. So after a year they contacted the FBI and they searched for and found the missing documents. Think of it this way, you see a cop behind you, if you stop, you get a ticket, a slap on the wrist. If you fleeā¦ you risk prison. Same rule here essentially. Everyone can see the possible double standard, but the difference again is āWILLFUL RETENTION.ā

Considering how he won, yeah! 11 states tried to change their faithless electoral voter laws, 2 or 3 succeeded, to prevent this from happening again. Itās not legal for a candidate or party or bribe an electoral voter to change their vote, but John Doe citizen can say offer them a job, college tuition, house, whatsoever they wish. There was a news report on the āfaithless electoral votersā that changed their vote from the popular vote, and ācoincidentallyā drove a new car, got a new job, new house, kids went to college, there was a long list. While ācoincidentalā without corroboration they cannot be prosecuted as there is no direct link between Trump and his campaign to the Electoral voters that changed their votes. Also of interest is that according to January 6th committee testimony Trump was told that because of the 2-3 states that succeeded in changing their faithless electoral laws, he would likely not win in 2020 about a year before the election. And THAT is within two weeks of when he started his āThe only way they can win is if they cheatā lies. And like any conman, he repeated that lie at every possible opportunity as conmen do as a brainwashing technique (lies repeated become fact).

Jason Brotherton āActually everything I said was 100% true for trump. 73 affairs, 22 rape accusations, 3000 lawsuits for illegal business practices, a wife whoās āescortā web services ads are still available online for you to see, 15 lies per day verified. I was NOT speaking of Democrats, it was Trump. When I spoke of Republican values abandoned I was speaking of a few of the Ten Commandments. They are not irrelevant, especially as the Republican Party is closely aligned with the evangelical religious right. You claim to be the party of faith but ignore āthou shall not lie, commit adultery, steal, etc. Everything is verifiable and true, and just because you and your president say itās fake news, doesnāt make it untrue, it just shows you to be dumb as a rock.

Ā @CashJordanĀ ā Thanks, and no worries. Her breed normally lives to 11 or 12 years, she made it almost 20. She was a bundle of joy, and the smartest most compassionate dog Iāve ever know, caring for her was one of the greatest honors of my life. Youāre probably raising your eyes, š thinking what-ev-er... but had you known her, you would be in love with her too. So obedient you could walk her without a leash. Once at Yellowstone a ranger came up and asked me if I had a golden... I said yea, havenāt seen her, she went off with some kids. He tells me she has to be on a leash. I yelled Paco a few times and here she comes racing at full speed, stops and sits in front of me to be leashed. The ranger just looked at her, me, said when a woman in red passes you on the trail you can let her off again. The humorous part the woman was pissed as hell because she was holding onto Pacoās leash āfor the protection of the park patronsā or whatever, and wheni called for her, she held on tight, and the old girl knew she had to go. Evidently pulled her down as she ran off. Whoops. š

Ā @SunriseLAWĀ -- Yes, much of the time CNN and other news stations are clearly biased. So? That doesn't make it false news just because they dared say something negative about Trump. FOX News is biased as hell in the other direction, and yes I watch, and not all of what they say is falsehoods either. Does CNN sometimes voice opinions as news, yes. However anyone with half a brain can discern the difference. And please don't get me started on FOX, they do the same and worse. And why or what was your point about Portland burning? Trump made that worse, did nothing to help the situation, but that still doesn't make it entirely Trumps fault. And what bogus poll? CNN is a cable news station, and has a history of spot on reporting, and although not perfect has never defended themselves in court by saying "We are entertainment, not News. Its not our fault our viewers believe us," like FOX News has on numerous occasions. Your "ALL NEWS BAD, EXCEPT WHAT I WANT TO BELIEVE" Republican mentality is wrong as hell, and i think you know it.

Weirdly, this is a non issue. The Colorado wedding cake issue was never ever about religious rights. The case was simple, two women go into the bakery, order a wedding cake, leave a deposit, get a receipt that promises a pick up/delivery date, and leave. That was a contract. The women won, based on the contractural issue, then the news got wind of it and the case morphed into a religious issue. They appealed, lost on the contractural issues, appealed and lost, appealed at the state level, lost, then at the national SCOTUS level and won.
This is America, if you can put no shirt, no service, we resolve the right to refuse service to anyone, signs out front, you can argue anything. In Texas thereās a restaurant and a hardware store that has signs saying NO GAYS, and no one can say squat about it, itās legal!
Religious rights were NEVER the issues here, there was never a threat to the religious rights of anyone.

Willow's Channel ā NO! I will not support the Democrats! And I watched the clip, the whole clip, and thatās exactly what trump said at the beginning, this [coronavirus] is a hoax. What saddens me most is that trump has essentially destroyed everything good about the Republican Party in less than 3 years. Anti-abortion, trumps paid for 5. Murder, he killed a foreign nations general for political points saying at the meeting āLetās take him out, my people will like that.ā Honor and integrity, he lies constantly about everything. Thou shall not steal, heās defrauded well over 30,000 people. Adultery, he has an open marriage with over 37 known provable affairs over the last decade. Faith, never been to church, read the Bible, and doubts god exists. He contradicts scripture in his words and deeds. He uses prostitutes, and WE forgive and ACCEPT all of this behavior from him. We, the Republican Party once were the party of faith! Now we are one step away from worshiping satan. Trumpās a MAN, yet my pastor says trump was appointed by God to save the nation, as such he has been blessed, sanctified and justified by God, and is essentially a saint, and that we may pray through him if we wish. HOW DOES ALL OF THIS NOT SCARE THE DUNG OUT OF YOU, AND SEND A CHILL UP YOUR SPINE?!

Shawn Heenan ā No one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE wants to kill babies! Donāt be a simpleton! That you could even say that shows you to be a closed minded sucker who has been manipulated. Ever study the difference between the Republican anti-abortion stance and the democrats pro-life stance? Pro-Life means saving babies now today, as many as possible. How? Instituting waiting periods to allow pro-life churches groups, churches, agency and or government staffers to explain the motherās options, assistance with work, education, housing pre-natal care, delivery and if desired adoption options. Sounds good, so ask why the Republican Party spends almost 500 million annually to FIGHT THESE EFFORTS?! Seriously, WHY?! The Republicanās seek to make it illegal, a murder charge, literally for mother, doctor and assisting staff, which would drive it into back room abortion clinics costing the lives of mothers AND their babies. Did you ever THINK that maybe possibly republicans donāt give a flying crap about saving lives, but care greatly about continuing the anti-abortion evangelical relationship and the money and support it brings into the GOP war chest? Did you know that over 60,000,000 babies have been killed in the 47/48 years since Roe vs. Wade was enacted? If babies LIVES were the issue, why would the Republican Party fight to keep pro-Life laws and efforts off the books? Dude, you and every other evangelical, religious-right person has been lied to and manipulated! How do you NOT see that itās ALL ABOUT THE MONEY?

daniel ā Dave S is wrong? So Trump isnāt a criminal? You might tell that to the over 30,000 people who have tried to sue him over his business practices, failed projects, etc. Keep in mind that the defense Trump uses is the same he used for not divesting his businesses when he became president. Trump is not the Responsible party in his projects, he didnāt own or operate or direct the failed business projects, home projects, resort projects, condo projects, retirement communities, or anything bearing the Trump name from the Trump Towers to the Trump University. Trump just licenses the use of his name, his endorsements are paid, he is just paid for marketing.

B 81 x Ahh, so youāre a trumpet too huh? LMAO! Yea... those Dems are socialists, anti-American, unchristian, baby killers, sexual deviants. LMAO! All said while your President has affairs, some w prostitutes, is a compulsive liar, thief, murderer, and commits treason, obstructs justice, and abuses his power. And NOTHING he does changes your opinion of him. Want to know the definition of a cult? Youāre in one. Want to see someone brainwashed, look in the mirror. You and your ilk are the shame of America, and just in case you are wondering, that is the absolute most polite words I can think of for all yāall. Could you please tell me when the Republican Party lost their faith and went full tilt bozo into worshiping Satan?
Edit, And you are the epitome of a dolt.

Ā @HondaRideaĀ ā This is what Iāve noticed, Republicans hate niceness, hate equality, hate treating others as humans, hate treating those they donāt like as the children of God they are. If Jesus was around, he would NOT be a Republican as we are not to judge, and supposed to reach out and are supposed to minister to those who donāt know him. Letās remember he washed others feet, ministered to lepers, and treated all as beloved equals. I get not liking or understanding LGBT people, but they are the lepers of today. As our very words will be held against us, how do you not worry how your hate has affected others?

Ā @HondaRideaĀ ā Well, when you talk about the BLM threat, stand against Black rights, shout āHEIL TRUMPā¼ļøā At his rallies in groups of 50-100 white nationalists, when you believe LGBT, Black and Hispanic people donāt deserve equal rights, shout hateful rhetoric about Trans people, block military promotions for the congressional floor because just one of them transitioned during her distinguished career, weakening our nations military because YOU hate trans people, we all gotta ask why? The hate that exudes from the Republican Party is scary, and if you donāt see it, youāre just proving you are in a cult.

9752matt ā Turn on your TV or open a window. Your idea of excellence is mind bogglingly insane. And riots; Trump REFUSING to say Black lives matter, spits in the face of everyone who is not a racist. Trump backs the police, encourages police aggression and violence, tweets racist comments pictures, and you blame democrat cities. Pandemic; Trump did NOTHING for 5 months, borders open, called it a hoax, said it was false news, said it was just the flu, that it would just go away, tried to ignore the problem. Ordered reduced testing to make his numbers look good when increased testing would have identified areas of infection and saved lives. When he did close the borders he OPENED them again to let the largest trade delegation from China into the US in history. Trump allowed the virus to enter, get a foothold, set up house and breed, then refused to accept responsibility. Even to this very day he is ordering schools to open or face loss of all federal funding. Think about that! Trump could be encouraging home schooling, online classrooms, and any combination of them... but he is not... OPEN PERIOD THAT IS A PRESIDENTIAL ORDER!
And you, are like trump. The people who are not racists, who believe that black lives actually do matter, that care... they see the masses that are absolutely totally fed up, we are talking war zone level of upset. NOW is when a leader should be saying what he can do to help. What is trump doing to help deescalate the situation? Seriously... what?
Everyone knows the country needs to reopen and return to normal, but safely. Do it smartly. How? Open with precautions! Trump said no masks until this month! He held open infect everyone rallies THIS MONTH! Last month in Tulsa Oklahoma he had an arena set up for over 20,000 people, only 8,000 showed up. He could have spaced them out, he could have saved lives. But Trump grouped all 8000 together so it would look good on TV. When a reporter later asked him about the 400 lives that event had cost he called the reporter rude, a disgrace, false news. She responded ā400 people are dead President Trumpā and he responded whatever and moved on.
Wake up.

Professional Squatters! I bought a house to fix up and move into a few months ago. I had the place ready save kitchen cabinets when I went to take some measurements and the police showed up as I tried to enter by drilling out the locks. A woman who told police she had permission to stay there from an unnamed carpenter. She broke in, changed the locks, and when police showed up opened the door HELP! She showed her keys to her locks and said to the police āYou canāt kick me out, Iām a tenant! And HE (points at me) canāt kick me out, he has to serve me w a 3 day notice, file eviction w the city, then I get a trial in a month, then 15 days to appeal, then another trial in a month, then if I lose I get 15 days to vacate. When I looked through the windows (because Iām not allowed to enter my home) I see my new appliances missing, my tools, air conditioners, shed broken into in the back, etc. I called police who talk to her through the door as she blocked them from entering screaming that you have to have a warrant, who told her she has to return my items. She replied āHIS?! MY HOUSE, MY TOOLS, MY APPLIANCES, MY FURNITURE, ALL MINE!ā And the police backed down, evidently she has the legal right to break in, sell everything of mine, and now itās been 3 months thanks to the virus and we still havenāt entered the first trial stage.

Qualified yes. While hate is the key to Trump's Republican support base, it ignores the reasons behind the hate. Beginning with Reagan the Republican Party has courted the religious right, specifically 1000 evangelical leaders in the USA. It began with anti-abortion, then the Republican Party added anti-gay rights to its mission statement. Oddly this was not done to be in the side of Religion, but to align themselves more closely with the religious right. The meeting notes in the Republican Party meeting specifically states the reason was "in order to polarize the voters." Then the Democratic Party handed the republicans a few gifts which cemented the right wing religious fan base to the Republican Party. 1. Clinton's indiscretion and 2. Obama came out in favor of marriage equality. Have YOU been to a church lately? The Republican's are called godly and Democrats are called baby killers, ungodly sinners, there is a long list.
Politics are no longer the issue! THIS IS A FAITH BASED ISSUE!
Why do you think Trump switched to the Republican Party after an unsuccessful attempt as an Independant for the Presidency? All of the issues that plagued him as an Independant became non issues. His business practices 3000 lawsuits, his 73 'known' affairs (both based on data from Trumps law firms legal filings in the last decade), and his wifeās past as a Russian model "escort" to "clients of means only" ALL became non-issues to the Republican Party as Trump was Republican, he was deemed Religious, and therefore forgiven. Why do you think Kaveneaugh was a shoe-in for the SCOTUS? It was a done deal before it started because Kaveneaugh was a Republican and answered 'Yes' to important questions on his position papers; Would you vote YES to: 1. Repeal Roe vs Wade. 2. Reverse Marriage Equality. Nothing else mattered. Let me repeat, NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!

Ā @xavierdaume2757Ā ā No itās not, not one name, copy of a document, or video that purports to be the smoking gun. You had one whistleblower who turned out to be a Chinese spy intent on helping Trump by discrediting Biden. Then they had an FBI report, which wasnāt a report or investigation, it was a form 1029 that is used to take an initial report. (Someone calls and says they know this that or the other about who or what.) But you do have Fox selling, selling hard that the Bidenās are corrupt, we have the proof, yet no documents, no damning testimony, no names, no recordings, no nada. And to be blunt, I donāt like Biden, I really want there to be something! But so far itās just accusations, insinuations and supposition. PLEASE TELL ME IM WRONG!

I used to work in the network group for SWBW, then cingular, then AT&T. We got āemergency requestsā from police occasionally, we were required to ask what location, office, and then look up the number for that precinct and call it and either verify their appointment, position or give them his cell phone number that we had if they were remote verify that that number was that officer. It sometimes took a few minutes but it was we had to do. Someone mucked up, jobs will be lost over thisā¦ or at least should be. To be clear, if we recognized the LEO, we skipped that step, and if they were insistent about the urgency, Iād hand one of my coworkers the info, theyād verify it while I was running the trace, or locating the cellphone, or last known location if the call had ended. In the old days, we could only give them a rough area, a cell site and antenna direction which often would only narrow it down to say a block or a shopping center area. Now, if the call is active, they can narrow it to about 12 feet.

Ā @choosesomethingfun5608Ā ā Not necessarily, they want to reduce the occurrence of mass shootings. Think back 40 years please, at presidential debates gun restrictions were laughed at, then as mass shootings continued, at every successive presidential campaign in debates it became a serious question, and at the 2020 elections all Democratic candidates have gun control on their positions list. Why? Public opinion changes politicians minds, by letters/emails, at polls, town halls, at public speeches voters express concern about their and their families safety, politicians who want to get elected adapt. Think that trend is going to stop? No, itās only a matter of time until Republican voters start pushing Republican candidates to do the same. Doing nothing isnāt the answer, fighting change isnāt the answer, and people like you donāt realize our constitution is written in pencil. It can, has, and will be changed.

Ā @MOSTASSEMBLYREQUIREDĀ ā Absolutely! At this moment we have ārumoredā emails on a laptop that showed up a week before elections began. No corroboration, no proof, just innuendo and rumors. And the fact this is Trumpās M.O. makes the whole China scandal questionable. Remember Carl Rove, who āfound a bug in their HQ 4 days before Bush was elected a governor of Texas? Big news, everyone was shocked the demoncrats would do such a horrible thing! Then 3 months later the FBI released its findings. Roveās assistant purchased the cheapest bug possible at a āSpy Tech Securityā shop a week prior, on video, and paid cash. The device had a battery life of about 22 to 23 minutes, it was a toy. Batteries were removed when the FBI took possession of it, and they had 20 minutes power left. Meaning that Rove literally placed the batteries into the device as the FBI walked up to the receptionist. There were trials, but they couldnāt prove that exact device was the one purchased by Roves assistant, as the serial number wasnāt on the receipt. It just looked bad. My point, THIS IS THE REPUBLICAN PARTYāS GAME OF CHOICE. It is what Trump has done over and over throughout his political career, cast doubt, innuendo, dehumanize, distract, discount, Deny, and destroy all opponents.

Travis Clark ā Ahh, previous years infection mortality rates take all infections/deaths into consideration. And dude, seriously? If 100,000 infections show a 3,400 mortality rate (3.4%), the percentages donāt increase. 200k infections and 6,800 deaths is STILL 3.4% LOL! Mortality does vary by state, county, and economic class because people may wait longer to seek treatment, not seek treatment due to financial concerns, or medical care may vary. Oh, and virus sometimes mutate so treatments can become less effective. But otherwise even if there are a million infections, the mortality rate remains 3.4%. š

Why is it in just six months Biden has done all this wrong. Seriously? Biden could have vaccinated the Nation, saved the environment and enhanced Americans freedoms and ALL YāALL WOULD STILL FIND FAULT. Oh wait, SNAP! Biden has done all of those things! Why is it that when Trump went to China, called Xi his friend, signed 6 million in contracts for Trump Properties (his daughter being paid by the USA signed) but all yāall were/are just fine with that! Obstruction of justice, using and working with a foreign country to manipulate not one, but TWO elections, and refusing to stand up for American allies, you loved that! Trumpās THE man! At this point I firmly believe Republicans have abandoned their faith, worship Satan, and lie cheat and steal just like Trump and YOU THINK THAT IS ACCEPTABLE! Open a Bible people!

Mass shootings have been happening under BOTH parties presidential terms. Trump or any politician point fingers is just posturing. What I would rather hear is HOW we can tighten up gun control purchase and ownership issues without trampling on the second amendment. Or how we could start school programs on how to recognize depression and anger issues in yourself, and what to responsibly do about your own feelings. Every time I hear the NRA protecting the publicās right to own military hardware, or someone blaming someone or something else for mass shootings like this it just makes me ill. At what point do we say ENOUGH TALK, do something. Prayer vigils, flowers, and people giving speeches are sweet AFTER an event such as this. But where was the SUSTAINED push for change in the weeks before this event? My fear is that as this event fades from our memories, so will itās urgency. And just for the record, I am a gun owner, not an NRA supporter, and I am in favor of stricter gun ownership laws. Everyone, including the NRA should be working together on this issue. Including revisions to the second amendment. In the 1700-1940's there was some truth to the thought that an armed populace could protect America from outside invasion. However, given the current advanced state of military technology, that concept has been rendered not just obsolete, but ludicrous.

india ki ma ka bhosda ā You arenāt the sharpest person in any room, are you. Ed Sr said ālove from Afghanistanā about Imran Kahn. I responded that it figures someone from Afghanistan would love a terrorist. I meant Kahn, the Pakistan leader, LOL! Pakistan helped fund, support and train the 911 attackers. Yes, it happened in Saudi Arabia, but Pakistanās military was heavily involved. https://youtu.be/Drl8DiaUdsw The people of Pakistan cheered, partied, and screamed praises in support of the 911 attacks the day it happened. And yet their president sent Bush a letter condemning the 911 attacks, an act that caused a military coup in Pakistan. This video makes it seem like Imran Khan and Pakistan are Friendly with the United States, when in fact some of us will never forget Pakistanās involvement in 911 or their people cheering the 911 attacks the day it happened.

NJ Patriot ā Donāt Watch CNN, Republican, voted for Trump. Please be honest, honesty matters. Stone went to prison because he assisted Trump in working with Russia to manipulate the election then worked to obstruct justice by destroying data, refusing to release it or contacting witnesses on Trumps behalf to prevent them from testifying. As the Mueller report stated, āWe have found clear evidence of both collusion and obstruction, however we are unable to prosecute a sitting president at this time.ā Trump declared himself innocent, and we believed him. The FBI is not a political wing filled with only Democrats, they are independent. Trump ordered the FBI director to not investigate this, he refused and was fired. That was one of the counts against trump. The people involved in helping Trump break the law are not protected from prosecution while in office like a president is. The FBI investigated, there was a federal jury trial (with standard impartial juror selection) and Stone and others were convicted, Stone on 7 felony charges, and he went to prison.
Letās be clear, just because Trump is a liar, we, the Republican Party does not need to be. Honesty MATTERS. If we are ever going to salvage the GOP from this fiasco we call trump, we need to regain our faith, integrity and honor. Because at the moment we have none, because of people like you who parrot trumps lies. Please stop, you are not helping.

Iāve had several golden retrievers, my last Paco, she passed a couple of years ago in her sleep at the age of 20 human years. Iāve never known smarter, more obedient, more compassionate dogs. š¶ Paco rudely woke me up barking at 5 am needing to go out and I felt bad for yelling "DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS GIRL?" I felt horrible when from that point forward when every morning I awoke to a soft, Oh so polite whimper, a soft barely there bark, and if she was desperate a cold wet nose on my arm or face. She could be walked anywhere without a leash, she loved people and they loved her, but not me for I had named a female dog Paco and not Paca as I should have. Once a park ranger yelled at me for not having her on a leash, I called her taking her leash out of my back pocket, she ran up to me, saw the leash and sat and waited. As I was bending down the ranger stayed my hand saying it wouldnāt be necessary with a smile. In her final years her hips were bothering her, I couldnāt afford the nearly 20k hip replacement and the vet said she needed to be put down, I agreed, said my goodbyes and was planning comforting her as she passed. Then something weird happened, when the vet she had just let handle her without concern approached, she growled so fiercely I was even scared, I consoled her, but damn if she would let that vet near her... she KNEW. Not today I informed the vet. I took her home, got used to lifting her gently into the car, and on some days she walked less, but she was so happy, so full of joy and while she knew she could never catch a squirt again, she tried. When she passed in her sleep by my bedside, it was a sweet sorrow. If dogs go to heaven, she will be there. Me... maybe... maybe not. Paco most definitely.

Ā @alistairmackintosh9412Ā ā Had you done any research you would know that in countries that have outlawed guns, gun violence does drop, for a few months. Then murders rebound, itās just death by axe handle, baseball bat, or hammer. A gun can be used for protection, or as a aggressive weapon. The only difference is the person wielding it. We absolutely do have a problem in the states with angry, pissed off, frustrated people who do not know how to properly express their feelings. Guns do make it easier, but blaming the gun maker is going to evolve into blaming the manufacturer of anything used to harm someone, machetes, hammers, axeās, gardening tools. These are all items that have no actions of their own, they require a human being to use them.

WeeItsNookies ā Far left? Me? I am a CHL gun owner, an NRA supporter, and I think I am a responsible gun owner. I think you are missing my point, if the NRA doesnāt STOP fighting any and all efforts to curb events such as these, to make concessions, and more events such as these occur, we can expect a major backlash. If public opinion shifts enough, the USA will ban ALL weapons just like Australia and other nations have. That you or anyone could think otherwise is incredibly naive. I donāt want the second amendment to change, I donāt want to lose the right to protect my person, home or family. I donāt EVER want to see another school or mass shooting. But evidently you either do, or are just fine with that. If I scare you, YOU terrify me.

Ā @Paint-brigade1776Ā ā Those are the statistics, however they donāt take into account the social and economic factors. We are all a product of our respective environments. If we grow up in a hard working family that believes in education and values, that is what you learn. If you grow up in a family or neighborhood where the people with money are criminals, and no one in your circle objects, no one says their life choices, their actions are badā¦ THAT is what you learn. If you grow up in a household that doesnāt stress education, enter into adulthood unprepared, have friends who survive by crime, the you not only learn that crime is an option for you, but you are validated by your friends for it. Soā¦ yes. FBI (or wherever you got those stats) might be correct, but only racist bigots blame the color of their skin instead of the socioeconomic factors that shape our lives, values, standards and belief structure. Is it a smashed culture? Iāll agree without knowing your intent. This isnāt a quick and easy fix, no easy solutions. Some Blacks feel singled out and use the stats to justify their feelings of victimization (some are justified), some whites look at the skin color and blame the race. Any educated person knows the reasons behind the statistics are the real problem. IMHO, and no one asked meā¦ education that stresses how to study, how to learn, how to avoid being arrested, that teaches that police are just people and not automatically your enemy, and much more needs to be taught. And before you blame me for being white, let me share that I know more than a few black police officers that are racist AF, some against whites, most against blacks. Why? Because they deal with the rotten 10% of us 70% of the time. And yes, education of police officers, regular rotation/reassignment so they donāt deal with only bad neighborhoods, is also needed.

Ā @LydiaHarper1019Ā ā As I understood it, he was breaking in the door, but was on the outside. I know it varies by the state, but in most states thereās a world of difference between shooting someone IN your house as opposed to outside your house. For example someone breaking into your car, garage or barn when you are not in it, and you go to them and shoot them, the castle doctrine doesnāt apply making YOU the aggressor not them. I agree, he needs to protect his family, and Iām hopeful the dad faced no charges, but in some states the location is key. Shoot someone in your house is defense, shooting someone outside your house is a completely different situation.

Ā @st.roberts4295Ā ā You sounds like a Christian... which boggles my mind. Refresh my memory, where does āThou shall not lieā (bear false witness depending on translation), or āThou shall not steal,ā or āThou shall not commit adultery,ā come from? How does a Christian quote Christian values, yet support a president and party with none? You absolutely cannot take the moral high road when you, your friends, your family, your church, your Party, and your President all lie, cheat, steal, kill, commit adultery, and break every commandment and scripture in the Bible! Seriously! Iām not trolling you, I genuinely do not understand this! I attend a bible church, and our church has tried to straddle the issue and failed, it has caused great division within our congregation. You cannot be a Christian and support a party and president of lies. If God hates a liar, what then does he feel about the Republican Party of today?

Ā @hanuman3527Ā one cop was killed by being bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher, one civilian died at the scene from a heart attack, two officers were so disgusted with being disgraced they committed suicide, and one protestor who had a heart attack later died as well. The rhetoric that caused this, all over a lie, was due to Trump. Go sell crazy somewhere else. What gets me is I used to be a Republican, I voted for Trump in 2016. The Republican Party has been reduced from a party of principles, to a disgraceful group of racist lying, two faced, hateful idiots with zero values. Anything goes so long as you win, integrity, honor, service to our nation, personal character, all gone. You are a cesspool of humanity now, and you donāt even see it. I am so ashamed I once supported and contributed to what the Republican Party has become.

locadisa ā No, I didnāt mean that. Race "shouldnāt" be part of the equation. Reagan met personally with the nations top 1000 evangelical leaders, not the top white. Religion isnāt perfect, no faith is, as it is comprised by people who are flawed. My point was the mindset that the Republican Party is godly, their mission is faith based, and absolutely nothing matters but their faith, belief in God, and their agenda. When an entire party believes themselves to be better than another, that they are godly, blessed, and that the Democrats are all sinners, deviants, and godless baby killers, THAT is the problem. Ever wonder why nothing trump does matters to them? Iām not joking.

Ā @bwana3006Ā ā Ahh, you are a Republican, LOL! Fox News says Dems strip rights, yet there are over 151 lawsuits in states seeking to take away womenās and LGBT rights. Is America filled with third world people like YOU (unless you are 100% Native American)? Yes, my great great great great grandfather immigrated from Norway to help build the railroads, so Iām a 5th generation anchor baby from a possibly illegal immigrant. Honor? LOL! Trump lied dozens of times a day, every day for his entire presidency for a total of 30,573 verified lies in 4 years. Biden on the other hand has been caught in 127 lies (fact-checked) so far in office. No oneās perfect, but just look at Trumps BIG Lie that almost cost us our democracy. Trump and most Republicans who backed him have almost all responded in court or in chambers that the right to lie is protected by free speech, itās a constitutional right to them. The best example is Ted Cruz, there are several videos of him here on YouTube arguing that very fact, that he has a constitutional right to lie. Soā¦ question for youā¦ when your entire Republican Party is based on lies and misinformation, how do YOU know what to believe? Thereās a reason everyone thinks Trumpets like you are in a cult. Look up cult leader attributes and you see a definition that describes Trump to a T.
