Islamists and Chinese drug cartels, chemical geoengineering and big tech surveillance, banks and financial companies' market manipulations... so many things we're not paying attention to while we watch boats getting blown up or staged conflicts at ICE facilities or argue about/focus on Israel's cultivated conflicts. Anyone else tired of it yet?

DOGE must've been theater, because as a party they've refused to act on it. They don't want to fix the budget or the debt, because they only talk about CRs. They could've passed 100 bills to fix America, but haven't done **** for 9m.

This is all of the same BS from the first 2 years of Trump's first term.

Maybe DeSantis was the guy after all. Maybe not. We'll never know now.

Good grief. You need to take a time out.

The deep state is sinking money into Chicago


I think it's going to get nasty in Chicago


Pritzger has better security than Trump. He knows it.

A mob boss never gets their own hands dirty. It's what keeps them out of prison. No one is going to prosecute the guy that runs the state they live in, either, and he knows that.

Unless he goes for donuts in a red state, he's not gonna miss a wink of luxurious sleep while his state smolders.

Katie Porter (D) gubernatorial hopeful self-destructs.


She through.

She wasn't their selected candidate anyway. Their choice is someone that can lie through their teeth and not batt an eye. Nobody that soft was ever in the running.

Unless you can show me that we know 100 percent that there are drugs on these boats, then I agree with Rand. He's right on this one.
As much as the darker part of me cheers the death of drug merchants, I have to agree also. Direct interdiction would be my approach. Drones are perfectly acceptable as a backup should the bad guys not cooperate.

You're right. Our intelligence community has never gotten anything wrong. It's totally cool to blow boats up because they say so and never question them. Don't know what I was thinking.
The approach we’ve used for 50 years in dealing with drug smugglers hasn’t worked. If anything it’s gotten worse.

Trump was elected because on this issue, like so many others, he is willing to do and say hard things that may produce success.

I doubt you’ll find too many people concerned about this. It’s war, man. We either start winning or we lose.

How do we explain this? How does Trump and his staff negotiate a deal when many presidents have claimed to try and failed? What was on the table that never before was?

Trump knows how to negotiate. He already knew what the Israelis would accept. He just had to get Hamas to accept their terms as well. The US bombing Iran was enough to make Hamas not doubt Trump would use military force.

Cringe fest. Talk about someone who presents as privileged, angry, and unstable. I did not know this person before that interview. According to Wikipedia, her “divorce was contentious, and both Hoffman [her ex] and Porter sought help for anger management…. A post-marriage relationship with a live-in boyfriend ended when Porter obtained a restraining order to keep him away from Porter, her home, and her children.” She purchased a price fixed home near the college campus when she taught for about 1/3 the market price and was permitted to keep the house without paying more when she ran for state representative. One other fun fact, she named her daughter after Elizabeth Warren.
They are looking to create campaign ads. That’s it. It’s all about keeping their base propagandized.

Well, I think the graph is showing the number of wealthy people is increasing faster than the poors are declining, But the poors are declining nonetheless which is a good thing. The bigger issue is that 150K today doesn't get you as much as it's 1967 adjusted equivalent did.

And it's based on perceived worth. There are a lot of people holding speculative assets that they aren't necessarily able to covert to the cash equivalent. Tons in crypto. Tons in real estate. None of it worth anything until they can liquidate it quickly.

I agree we need to cut their funding. However imo theyre way down the list of priorities. We need to cut out all ngo funding. Then cut out most every other piece of foreign aid.

Israel comes last imo. They are our lightning rod. The crazies over in the ME would be over here exploding themselves in churches if it wasn't for Israel.

So they earn some degree of funding just for that alone, imo.
Government funding a NON-GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATION, specifically set up for political purposes, is irony. NGO's and ANTIFA have something in common, they're both the opposite of what they portray themselves to be.

Funny how lily white these protestors are when Biden shoved all the illegals into black neighborhoods. The people who live in the neighborhoods seem to be happy to get rid of the illegals. ICE isn't going to Lincoln Park to remove them.

I agree too. Imo that's all anyone needs to do is provide the decision making rationale behind pulling the trigger. Otherwise it sure sounds like they just blow up anything that might be a drug runner and hope they're right.

Just a little more info is all that's needed.
I'm sure a lot more intel than we know goes into making that call, and I'm sure a lot of it they don't want revealed. I would think these boats are tracked long before they get out in the open water like that. but they don't want to be blowing them up while docked on land either. That being said, there is a better way to go about it. have the CG intercept the boat and basically warn them, "see that jet up there? fire a shot at us and see what happens" Then seize the boat.

The higher ups are trying to provoke the unthinkable so they can use it politically. How crazy is it that we have peace around the world but Liberals wont let us have it here. Pathetic. Putrid.
It's all just further proof that these NGO's and Soros funded org's are all out their and created for one specific purpose. To sew civil discord and unrest. They want these altercations to happen. It's what USAID has funded in multiple countries, including now our own. It's a Globalist tactic to gain power during the unrest.

Winston has always struggled with progressions and leaving the pocket too soon at the pro level. Very athletic, sure. Do you think they'd have gotten Winston and a draft pick for a 5th round pick?

As a Chase owner in fantasy, I kind of liked Jameis or even Russ better than Flacco. The thing with Flacco is his feet are firmly planted in cement. And this could turn into a recipe for disaster very quickly. That line is bad, and if Flacco is getting pressured immediately, none of his other QB qualities will matter.

I don't see how the Giants could have asked for anything more than a 5th rounder for EITHER Jameis or Russ, when they are starting Jaxosn Dart now. Certainly they could have parted with their 3rd string QB.

I also wouldn't rule this out from happening again, if Flacco goes down.
