Perfectly good food will be burned instead of feeding the hungry? It could have fed someone, somewhere. How does this fit Jesus’ teachings?

I’m sure the Atlantic is accurately reporting that situation. I mean they have never mislead or outright lied before to paint Trump in a negative light. Why would they start now?


it’s like the little boy that cried wolf.

It was expired. Also my understanding is that the “food” was things like workout type supplement food like protein bars. Very disingenuous reporting.
And before the who cares if it’s expired crowd gets going, the government mandates companies do the same thing with prescription medication. It’s incinerated after the expiration, they audit that every quarter.

I think the point is these "high-energy biscuits" wouldn't have been destroyed if they didn't come in with a sledgehammer and destroy the agency without notice or compassion for the people it was helping. Heads would roll if the asylum wasn't completely staffed by inmates.

It seems like trump is blowing everything up with no thought to the outcome. Any problems will be blamed on others. Any time something negative comes up, he throws something else out that deflects the narrative.

I really believe we are heading into a financial crisis and chaos in the banking system with the influx of the crypto legislation, stablecoin etc

Not to mention efforts to politicize the FOMC with an unsustainable national debt.

Hopefully. But i'd be ok if maybe some of the Transgender Sesame Street funding went towards food.
They're also cutting non-transgender Sesame Street because woke

"But she omitted context or misstated key details in her descriptions of some of the grants, including the five remaining ones.

The $20 million to Sesame Workshop was not to create a new program, but to tailor an existing children’s show called “Ahlan Simsim” for local audiences, as well as to create educational material for training and use in child care centers."

Fred Trump to Norman Vincent Peel to Roy Cohn

These mentors shaped trump. His delay and deflection tactics mirror Roy Cohn

I have zero doubt that Roy Cohn is currently burning in hell. Absolutely despicable person.

Honestly, being connected to Cohn should have been enough of a disqualifier to cancel Trump.

Ain't that the ****** BOY who allowed his young daughter to get felt up on video by ole Joe? NVM, I already know the answer.

He would have let ole Joe do it to his wife too. Just like all demonrats, either a deviant or a *****.

of course it’s the usual responses, man, all deflection into falsehoods and nobody in here having the discussion on the topic that i actually brought up.

it’s because they know their party’s leaders aren’t acting on the Christian faith and don’t have a drop of it in their souls to live their lives by.

Would you like me to share all the photos of all the young girls sitting in Trump's lap or all the first hand accounts of him perving on young girls? We have a thousand times more evidence of his debauchery but you only focus on imaginary allegations against Joe. I know there must be a reason for it but I can't put my finger on it.

simple, Coons is one of those who takes the party line no matter the logic. For me it's illogical that the party is right 100% of the time. No person or body is ever always right. That goes for republicans as well. I don't trust a republican who will stand up and defend something that in my mind is wrong.

For example, and I hesitate to use this as I don't want to be accused of being anti left, but it's an example everyone would understand....migrants crossing the border, on TV live, and senators going on TV and telling us the border is secured. Now, in my mind, if you'll lie to me when I know you're lying, why would I believe the next thing you say? same thing applies on the Republican side.

I didn't post anything about the Atlantic. I don't read it and don't know anything about it

Don't the majority of politicians tow the party line on both sides? That doesn't make Sen Coons untrustworthy, especially if we're using your example as he is not one who said the border was secure, in fact, he fought tooth and nail for bi-partisan immigration reform, so that reveals to me that you don't trust any democrat for some reason.

As far as the side you can't trust, there's a much better case for Republicans - for example, on the same day as the Insurrection 147 of them voted to not certify the election results, even though there was ZERO evidence of widespread voter fraud. That's despicable.

You responded to a post about the Atlantic and that's why I included the fact-check in my reply.

You are much too rational for this board. The key is to block/ignore or not respond to the people who are not rational.

As crazy as it sounds, there are people on this board who get paid to support demonrat viewpoints. May be their views also, but they are paid to spout their nonsense.

Whoever pays someone to influence ten rednecks on a football message board is one dumb mother ******. And anyone who actually believes that is happening is even dumber.

the answer to your question about party lines..No. Democrats are much better at whipping their members into line. For decades the expression in Washington was that republicans couldn't govern because they couldn't get the votes - even when they were in the majority. Now, that's changed a little over time But you still have holdouts like Rand Pail, Tom Massie, murkowski etc.
In fact, I have often used the expression when it comes to bills in the house/Senate, "you can't be certain the republicans won't screw up a winning hand"!

Bipartisan Bill. If I recall correctly there was one Republican , the senator from Oklahoma, on the committee writing the bill. IMO it was a bad bill and there was bipartisan opposition to it. (I'm using the one number in a similar manner as the single senator from Oklahoma). That bipartisan bill would never have made it through the house IMO.

I don't know anything about the 147 republicans who voted against certification. So accept your premise.

On the Atlantic ..ok, I understand
