Safety? No idea. Why let dozens of Chinese satellites fly over the entire country?
Our airspace doesn't apply to orbits. You should know that. Low level craft, like that balloon violate our sovereign airspace at that altitude. I'd be mad if Biden, Trump or Reagan allowed this.

This is about the security of our country, not politics. Im hoping you can agree with that.

Oh right, first time it ever happened in our history and I agree about our security. Tik Tok included,

Only in Biden's America! If Trump were president this innocent man wouldn't be going to jail. He's just a poor guy who took $20k from a local business owner, a dentist, and used that money to help dentists all over Arkansas! What a nice deed.

Ofc the guy he initially helped was going to give Hutchinson $150,000 because his dental practice took off and prospered. Nothing shady about that at all. Just a nice man paying it forward.

But no, in 2023 this is apparently a bribe.

Schiff should be investigated and I think will be and we will see what happens after that. Biden is not in Congress and so no I would not support his impeachment for lying.

Santos created his entire persona. We don't even know his true life story. His case is unique. I doubt he will be removed unless he is indicted.
Not what he asked. You proved his point BTW.

Well done, @Sawnee Cat

This part is funny too as the entitled and politically connected class has it so rough after their innocent white-collar crimes of course.
Dudley said that as a public official, “getting indicted and convicted is worse than going to prison.” He also said that a longer prison sentence does not deter people from doing crimes.

I'm really surprised you posted something so ignorant when a 2 second search will refute this EVERY time income taxes have been lowered. Lowering income taxes generates more revenue. Every time.

This is why the left should be in charge of nothing significant.
Hey man, I'm not disagreeing. Companies paying lower taxes make more in revenue. You're right.

I'm talking about the government. They gotta pay their bills somehow and balance the budget! They can only cut so much and after that who know what'll happen!

And this is coming from someone who's been a republican for the past 6 mo. Pops passed away from that damn booster.

Sure he was in his 70s, smoked and was obese and had cancer but it was definitely the shot.

Also, appreciate your transparency erasing everything I said and just pasting one sentence to make it come across as something else.

Always thought the right were the honest ones but I guess there are some bad apples.

Or, the most corrupt, authoritarian regime we've ever endured. Whichever.

Seems to me if we shoot it down AFTER it has flown over our country, then we would be doing them a favor.

Xi: we're done with the balloon Joe. You can shoot it down now.
Joe: tenfold
Xi: excuse me?
Joe: tenfold
Xi: 10-4?
Joe: tenfold
Xi: click
How it should've gone:
US: Hey Xi, good news. We found your missing balloon.
Xi: Ah, barroon for wedder. Yes, wedder onry.
US: Yea, no sweat. We just shot it down for you and will drop it off in Beijing via express mail. Nah, you don't have to thank us. You're welcome.
Xi: Ah, no. Wedder. China need news on wedder...
US: <click>

Sorry about your pops. I am very serious on that. I can completely relate to you.

(BTW, I know I'm right ... it is a burden i must carry lol)

Hope you're serious about converting to Pub; you're usually relatively smrt. That is why i was disappointed in your post. The post, BTW, that I directly quoted, was the lead of the paragraph. That was the part that caught my eye, the rest of the post was drivel and I wasn't interested in it and didn't want to clog the thread further. If you're going to join us on the right, you gotta develop thicker skin my friend.
 
McConnell showed his true colors again. Rick Scott is one of the most conservative Senators in the Senate and he also a brilliant business man. He is a self made millionaire and knows how to manage. His money did not come from his power as a Senator with kick backs from contractors and donors.
Scott is in favor of a balanced budget and Mitch can't stomach that. Rick Scott was not afraid to call him out and expose him for what he is. So Mitch gets revenge and America loses a good business mind and manager of finances.

McConnell is not to be trusted. Oh he will say what we want to hear every once in awhile then snug up to Schumer and his Democrat buddies and cave in.
Mitch is a POS

Thx man, you as well.

That specific point was again referring to government revenue not corporate.

https://www.investopedia.com/articles/07/tax_cuts.asp#:~:text=Tax cuts reduce government revenues,income tax and payroll tax.

summary of resource

"Tax cuts reduce government revenues and create either a budget deficit or increased sovereign debt. Critics often argue that the tax cut benefits the rich at the expense of those with fewer resources as services beneficial to those in a lower income bracket are cut. Proponents claim that cuts put money in consumers' pockets and spending increases, growing the economy"

To be the party of fiscal responsibility, as Republicans are, they need to truly look at this. They cannot be serious about balancing the budget solely through cuts.

Ofc I'm in favor of said Cuts, specifically payroll taxes. Larger paychecks for all. We're already paying over 7.5%, 15% if you count the employer contribution. Bigger checks is something I can get behind.

Sure it would gut some social programs but I'm more confident in Wall Street than the government and this can be seen through the historical stock market average of 7 to 10% a year depending on which indices you use. Social Security, on the other hand, hardly goes up at all.

I trust the average American to be wise with their larger paychecks and that's something I think we, as a nation, should agree on.

Per usual you're leaving some very specific details out your claim....but what do you expect from the ppl who believe a bill is called "dont say gay". They arent trying to criminalize all drag...just specifically drag story hour and all this shit revolving around children.

Which again, none of you can explain why it is so imperative to be around kids doing this. And all rational ppl know we aren't talking about putting on a play and an actor dressing up as a woman. Again, Why are you all so devastated if you cant put this all over 3 years olds.

In addition this of course goes back to the press and democrats and how the produce propaganda. The press finds a GOP policy they don't like, exaggerate its impact or what it actually is. Ppl go ape shit and believe them. Then they go out and cover their reaction as evidence of how bad the policy is. Another good example of this is the GA voter laws, which were completely fabricated by the press.
I directly quoted the law itself. Not any media coverage. You can’t blame the press for what the law literally says.

Gov revenue increases after taxes are lowered. Left-leaning economists do not like that truth, but when people have more money, they spend it, save it, or give it away*. All 3 help the economy and create further revenue, which is taxed again. Lowering taxes provides incentive to invest or grow income as well. Then gov revenues go up, every time serious tax reduction is tried.

Let me know if you agree with this: it isn't JUST "bigger checks". It is keeping my money ... what I earned through my hard work, patience and perseverance.

* when people are more generous, the NEED for social programs go down. Politicians from the Uniparty do not like that, because they're addicted to OPM.

The last point ... I will agree with part of that completely. (ha) I think most Americans make shi!tty decisions with their money BUUUTTT they make better decisions for themselves than greedy Pols will make for them. If you're talking about people and their decisions vs SS, then yes I agree. Just look at Galveston.

Later, gotta run.

EDIT: I forgot ... businesses do not pay "corporate income taxes". Customers of business pay income taxes. So whoever buys something from a business is the one actually paying the corporate income tax. It is a shame how bad our economic education is today.

GA is lucky to have someone like MTG. She's a true representation of our great nation and adherent follower of not only the Constitution but of our God's Law, the 10 Comandments, especially the 7th.

If only those currently in the White House followed his law as good as she.

Lastly, she's hilarious which is great especially in these dark times.
 
China is not all-in with Russia. They're using them just like they try to use everyone. China is only all-in on itself.
All in China. They’re all about themselves but they have allied with Russia buddy. Argue it all you want it is what it is


 
Disclaimer: I’ve made two posts signaling my willingness to end the topic to respect the wishes of the thread. And they keep being responded to by others, so obviously more people than just myself are interested in the topic. Refer all future complaints about cake posts to @Caveman Catfan for continuing this.


He’s denying service of a pink cake with blue frosting to someone that he himself states he would sell to someone else. It doesn’t matter that he sells some cakes to trans people. They’re the same as anyone else and have the right to the same cake as anyone else. He isn’t allowed to sell a pink cake with blue frosting to a cishet man, but refuse to sell that same pink cake with blue frosting to a trans person, regardless of what he thinks the cake’s for. That is the heart of the issue.

He’s allowed to refuse service for any reason that isn’t a protected class. But Colorado has more protections under CADA than federally. For instance marital status is also protected. So if a cishet man wants a black cake with white frosting for his divorce Phillips still has to bake that reasonable, inherently inexpressive cake even if divorce was against his religion. Or obviously he’s free to not and close his doors.

You’ve accused me of dodging issues but I’ve addressed every one you can put forth. To the exasperation of the thread even.
Yeah, you said the same things 20 times. 🤦‍♂️
 
I have no idea what you mean about climate change but those pictures are from years ago. The Amazon has been having massive illegal logging issues for years, exacerbated by Bolsonaro’s policies and support. Uncontacted tribes like the Yanomami shown here are at serious risk. Y’all’s rightwing BS is literally killing them.

A Christian missionary bribed his way onto North Sentinel Island several years ago too to spread y’all’s crap. Luckily they pumped him full of arrows.
Somebody hates Christians. What are the Marxist missionaries up to these days?

To be fair that kid going to that island would be like us going to Ukraine with the intent to convince the Russians to end the war. Wouldn't end well for any of us.

The Sentinelese have no concept of Christianity so it wasn't necessarily hate from their end. Nor is is hate from @Dionysus444 , more so the kid wanted that Darwin Award and boy oh boy did he earn it!

As for the Marxist missionaries, they're spreading the good word of how entitlements are great for people. Gotta help those in need, the downtrodden. Love thy neighbor and all.

At least that's what they want you to believe.

I think you mean love thy government. Marxists don’t love their neighbors. And, they are not charitable.

Technically speaking both sides of the aisle are charitable which makes sense because the U.S. is one of the most charitable countries on the planet.

R's are slightly more charitable with 72% of them donating to 68% for D's. My guess would be because R's are more religious.

Just because D's are an opposing party doesn't mean they're not charitable.

Remember, it's not good to make blanket statements about a group of people just because those at the top are sketchy.

I know people of both ideologies who've donated or served their communities. One can care for others regardless of party.

Those who cannot are just sad individuals.

I say this as someone whose family is a mix of both. Mom and brother D's, late pops R. Shoot I live in a sea of blue, volunteer at a church and politics never comes up. We're there to serve.

If I let the fact that most of those volunteers are likely left leaning and chose to not volunteer there because of that then it would not be a good look especially in a church of all places.

Added:

Not all Democrats are Marxist just like not all Republicans are fascist. Those that have that belief are a lost cause.

Remember, it should be country/community first, party second. Those that value their party over everything else are again a lost cause.

With that being said, it's time to crash. Gotta get up early.
