What a ridiculous conspiracy theory. How can you genuinely believe that Barack Obama was an MKUltra creation, when he is clearly a lizard person from another demention disguised as a human so that way he could advocate for more abortions to feed his god Moloch?
Let me know the next time you're in DC. I have a great pizza place recommendation. Good pizza up front but the fun is in the back.

Love the overly literal crowd - obviously the tattoos are not literally the letters and numbers MS-13 however the symbols clearly stand for MS-13. The "photoshopped image" provided context to the uninformed of what those symbols represent you simps, nice try obfuscating by implying the tattoos are photoshopped when it is the context illustration that is photoshopped. Obviously nobody thinks they saved 119 million lives - they have been describing fentanyl seizure volumes in max OD deaths the seized product could cause for years to dramatize it. Suddenly apoplectic over semantics is such a glorious sign of how terribly you are losing. Keep falling for the troll jobs - probably think Trump is running in 2028 too. Being this purposefully obtuse further discredits your bullshit, please keep it up.

If TDS crowd had half a brain they would maintain fire on the tariff debacle - that is the biggest flub harming everyone and their dog. Lax called that one early. I think the plan is to force recession early so they have a chance of being on road to recovery this time next year. -0.3% GDP in Q1 so we are halfway there if we get back to traditional metrics. Might allow MAGA to make the pitch of short term pain for long term gain if we are on the upswing this time next year which is economically likely unless you are a tariff nihilist. Time will tell if this is bluster and baffling with BS to force massive change in a short window with some underlying purpose or if it is just retards humping doorknobs. I think they earned the chance to F it up however they want thanks to career grift from both sides selling out our country for decades.

Deportation also need to be 10x - you can't deport 300k per year to make up for 10M influx in prior four years. Shills know this and love lawfare slowing this down - they are just filibustering until the next admin come in with either no spine to fight or outright flood the border again. Republicans are complicit.

DOGE - again lawfare gumming up the works but refusal to take a hatchet to DoD is where they lose me.

Emhoff - LOL - bullshit councils to influence slush funds. So funny to me that Trump is punching these twats where it really hurts - their bullshit org status. That org has a $50M annual payroll and got $68M from government grants in 2022 (page 9 of the 990). Why is government subsidizing this "charity" that has run an operating profit of $27M to $41M the last three reported years? They are well on their way to $1B in assets. The director makes over half a million per year. WTF - cut them off DOGE.

It must be a real burden to be as smart as you are and never make a mistake. God bless you for carrying that heavy load for the rest of us.
I make plenty of mistakes, and I've admitted when I'm wrong. NoDak can attest to that.

You're more than welcome to admit you got got over the Barron thing.

1. You could easily avoid these things if you put in the minimum amount of effort to fact-check yourself. You making it our fault and playing the victim because you are too incompetent and/or lazy to verify the things you post is pathetic. I'd expect nothing less from you though.

2. You framing that as you making "a" mistake is also hilarious. All you do is make/post mistakes and post unsourced false shit.

Toronto nor I are demanding perfection. We are requesting/expecting competence. Perhaps our expectations are too high? Our bad.

These people are insane and dangerous:


He is appealing to flyover country/rust belt sentiment. Very condescending to 2/3rds of our country to scoff at and dismiss this.

Glossed over is the "accelerating permits to build US Factories faster" - our regulatory environment is horrendous on multiple levels which goes hand in hand with exploding government sector employment as more useless dipshits look to validate their existence at the speed of dark.

I think it's more condescending to say that 2/3rds of the country and a specific region is perfectly fine working in factories for three generations with no upward mobility.

No, it isn't. People do not want to work in factories, that is proven by the fact that we had ~500k unfilled manufacturing jobs in Q4 2024... many of them well paying.

Saying "two thirds of the country" wants factory jobs is divorced from reality. Do you want a factory job? Do you want a factory job for your kids or grandkids? If not, why not?

People need to educate themselves:
A 2024 Cato Institute survey found that 80% of Americans believe the country would be better off with more manufacturing jobs. But when asked if they personally would prefer a factory job over their current work, only 25% agreed. About 73% said no, and just 2% of respondents actually work in manufacturing today.

Nobody wants these jobs. Ask anyone who actually works in manufacturing what it's like trying to recruit. You're asking people to voluntarily trade good jobs / desirable jobs for the least desirable ones. Everyone wants someone to do it but very few people are willing to do it themselves.

He's talking about making private law firms give free services for police that are charged with crimes.
This isn’t “big government” and nobody’s forcing private law firms to do anything. It leans on the private sector vice just throwing out money and hiring at the gov to make government bigger like Biden and D's did for four years. It just lets firms volunteer to help cops getting dragged through bogus charges — same way they do pro bono work for all kinds of causes.

Did they poll the 15M illegals who entered Biden's broken border if they want the work?

25% preferring a job that is currently taken by 2% of the workforce. I don't think your stats back up your anecdotal point. Local pharma plants have been a boon for semi-rural economy - no idea what they do in there but people hold jobs long term and can get to six figure incomes without college degrees.

The point also remains that rust belt has nostalgia for these jobs.

...that 25% could get those jobs NOW. Why aren't they? Perhaps they are wishcasting and/or have no idea what kind of demand manufacturing work requires. Why would they prefer that job?

Not shocking that white collar snobs abound midday on a Notre Dame message board.

LOL firms can already volunteer to assist how they want. Do you really think that professional services firms should be told how to spend their time?

15M? Are we just making up numbers now? I can't even find anything to support a TOTAL of 15m let alone 15m that came in during Biden's four years.

Right- but the guy claimed that they were compelling people to volunteer for the deportation or something crazy like that.

You can add the getaways and encountered, doubt they are counting the ones our tax dollars flew here, and then there are surely more those incompetent pricks didn't even know about. Nobody knows. Kamala, former border-czar, couldn't definitively say, so your number is a guess. I've seen estimates that lower half double digit range. Either way it's a clear demonstration of incompetence from the democrats and a whole hell of a lot of migrants.

So you have no evidence of your claim. Got it.
