POLITICAL THREAD

[Girthang]

No one seems to care. It's sad what our leaders and country have become.

Why is anyone shocked at this after what the Obama administration did to ignore US citizens and soldiers captive and under seige overseas? No safe harbor offered to many Christians seeking asylum. No equal treatment in that regard. In the view of democrats this country and its citizens are evil unless they are a protected faction (the kind Jefferson warned us would be the destruction of our country).

Imo they're all dead already and the admin knows it or facilitated it by not forcing nor negotiating their release early on.

I say we offer Joe in exchange for them. Since he's worried about votes, he can go to Gaza to recruit new democrat voters. Send us back our people.

 

[Girthang]

Wilson was always the worst president ever even compared to Carter. Now Wilson might get off the hook. Wilson was just wrong and even made comments that he feared his policies may do more harm than good for working Americans. Biden has no such reasoning skills.

Biden knows and doesn't care. Even his pretending not to know is a lie. Dems love him for his acting and his lies. He's a buffoon like what they grew up with and from/by which they learned and were groomed. Sad as it sounds

It's too bad Travis has spent more of his time offering no solutions and simply btching about what the left does as if they don't know full well what they are doing. He's just there to make money off of the outrage. That's what is shameful. Can't stand hearing the guy talk and his annoying, regular mixing of metaphors.

Listened to the show occasionally for a little while after they took over, but found I can only stomach it when it's just Buck Sexton.

We all know it's shameful what the admin is and isn't doing across the board. Maybe try to do something about it by mobilizing your audience and providing a platform with solutions to put pressure on the administration. You have the money and the microphone. Do something of value

 

[UK_fan_41102]

The audacity of these people blows my mind. Imagine thinking that you have the authority to make demands when you are here illegally. Deport them all.

 

[HymanKaplan]

They'll have Biden so jib-headed on dextroamphetamine for the debate that he'll be tweeking like Gopher and Skinny Pete from Breaking Bad.

Deport them all and put them on the "barred from applying or entering ever again" list.

 

[HymanKaplan]

This is the Southern border when Trump gets back in the White House.

 

[JumperJack]

… and the worst domestic policy POTUS since James Buchanan.

Prophetic, I’m afraid.

Throw out the cases and make sure every attorney at the doj, fibs, and in these states that knowingly fabricated or presented fraudulent evidence to obtain subpoenas, surveillance, begin investigations, and bring cases to court that they KNEW UNDOUBTEDLY had no business being brought against him and others. Regardless of the minuscule harvest they managed to harvest, the "evidence" obtained should've been throw out due to violations of law in the securing of warrants. That and not even mentioning the fraudulent set ups, politically motivated (witch hunt) cases and rulings, and multiple breaches of atty client privilege, due process and first amendment rights, and the right to privacy.

The entire judicial process has been on trial before our very eyes and is clearly corrupted to its core. Time for a whole house (branch) cleaning.

All nice and well, but Who is going to do the throwing out and putting all of these corrupt DA's and judges on notice? This is all largely being facilitated and coordinated by the Biden Administration as we've seen the proof of meetings being held between some of the parties involved. This is corruption across the board and it's easy to say they should be tossed, but tell me who's going to do the tossing?

 

[trueblujr2]

Good start I guess but they'll just cheat earlier. Granted it will be tougher because they won't know for sure how many they'll need.

If they could get a law like this passed, they could pass anything. Why not just require in person voting with an id?

Isn't this basically what Florida did to subvert the Broward County nonsense? But you second sentence basically outlines the reason for it. if all the mail-in/absentee votes are counted first, then they are powerless once the rest of the votes come in. There will be no late-night dumps all for one candidate

MAGA should be happy Biden is withholding foreign aid & thus keeping the money here.

They won’t know how many votes they need, and they won’t know who didn’t vote in person on Election Day.

On its face, it’s a step in the right direction. On the other hand it’s Kemp and GA, so I assume the uniparty and deep state has cooked up a better way to cheat and this is nothing but lip service.

Does anyone here actually KNOW a MAGA? I'm not even sure what it actually MEANS to tell you the truth.

Is it just the hat? Does a red hat mean that one is a "MAGA"? If so, does that mean UL fans are all MAGA? Or is there a form you have to fill out?

I'm starting to think that it is a catch all for anyone that isn't on the far left, which is ludicrous.*

*(the idea of fascists calling other people out as fascists... LOL)

I'm just a useful idiot tha isn't media trained. My media trained overlords speak for me as I continue my life as a useful idiot for the left.

 

[Bill Cosby]

Well other than the fact he’s still funding terrorists while withholding funding from allies.

Should stop funding all sides of these wars, not just our allies.

Right. They'll just cheat in a different way. They'll load up since they won't have the exact number to beat. Expect a mind-blowing record turnout for ga.

I guess they thought they couldn't get in person and/Id passed?

Consumer Sentiment Hits Lowest Level This Year As Inflation Weighs On Americans’ Wallets

Consumer sentiment is now about 18% lower than it was when President Joe Biden took office in 2021 and 32% lower than it was at the 2017 handoff from the Obama Administration to the Trump Administration.

That just can't be @sambowieshin .........

Oh well at least I got money to spend I guess.....

No doubt the 300 dollar grocery trips are playing a part in this. Thank God Trump has a plan to take over all of the grocery store chains when he becomes President and fix prices like they do in China.

Maybe he could cut all restrictions on domestic oil production and drive down diesel prices.

 

[sambowieshin]

Maybe he could cut all restrictions on domestic oil production and drive down diesel prices.

Or maybe he could have the highest oil production in US history..... like Biden.
Biden producing more oil than Trump ever did.

U.S. Oil Production Hits Record High, Set to Remain Dominant

As U.S. crude production gears up for new heights, our recommendation is to concentrate on domestic E&P companies with strong fundamentals, such as APA, FANG and MGY.

I know lots of MAGAs. They are everywhere and easy to spot. They are the ones that don't have an ounce of logic in their head. They are full of hypocrisy and rage 24/7.
They scream to stop US funding of foreign wars....but scream to fund Isreal's war.
They scream about too much government in our lives....but scream for the government to exert full control over women's reproductive parts.
They scream for Biden to exert price controls over groceries....but scream that they hate Socialism.
They scream that the elections are all rigged.....but they can't wait to vote out the ones that rigged it.
They scream about the decline in schools....but scream to cut funding to schools.
They scream about violent protests on campuses.....but call Jan 6th a sightseeing tour.
They scream for cheap fruit and vegetable/housing prices....but don't wanna let in the workers who make those cheap prices possible.

That debate will be the most watched in US history. Tune in to watch a lunatic and a dementia patient hurl insults at one another for 2 hours.

Imagine being so stupid as to ridicule folks who believe in "America First" or "Make America Great Again".

Anyone who doesn't believe that should be deported... it shouldn't even be a political issue.

All kidding aside, this is actually a pretty good illustration of how the liberal mind works. IOW - that the government pulls the strings in life, and can (nay, SHOULD) fix, all aspects of our existence. When in reality, whenever they try to "tinker" they almost always **** things up. For the MOST part, the best thing government can do is to stay out of the way.

The Covid era 'freedumb' pejorative was particularly revealing.

A lot of people have woken up to who these people are in the time since Trump "lost" his re-election bid.

 

[HymanKaplan]

To that end, let us say that civilians were empowered to voluntarily control the southern border, rather than the government (other than official points of entry, where legitimate immigration could take place.) Do you think illegal immigration would:

A - Increase

or

B - Come to an almost complete stop

 

[JumperJack]

From Shinbone’s own article about oil production. Does anybody else see the problem?

“For the sixth consecutive year, the United States has maintained its position as the world's top oil producer, according to the Energy Information Administration (‘EIA’). In 2023, U.S. crude output reached a historic high, averaging 12.9 million barrels per day (‘bpd’), surpassing the previous record set in 2019. December alone saw a remarkable milestone, with production peaking at over 13.3 million bpd.”

 

[HymanKaplan]

Getting it out of the ground isn't the bottleneck. Refining is. (IMO)

If the government wants to throw money around, invest it in some new/state of the art refineries (my understanding is that it is economically unfeasable for a private company to actually build a new refinery)

(refineries that can actually refine the domestic oil that we drill, which isn't the case now. Our refineries are not capable of refining a LOT of the oil that we produce domestically)

 

[ManitouDan]

Joe's strings must be controlled by Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar.

Make no mistake , its Obama pulling the strings . A closet muslim and also in the closet in other matters . Its him .

... as the founders intended. Absolutely, except where they infringe on the God given rights of others.

Of course, going full throttle on nuclear power plants would mitigate a LOT of these problems.

 

[AustinTXCat]

Politicians are supposed to change their position on policies. Their job is to represent what their constituents want not what they want. So they either shift their views when required or they hit the road. A politician that is unwilling to see outside their narrow worldview becomes a lose like Sessions still screaming about weed in 2020.

Throw some of that money at hemp processing as well. Make a market for hemp products as they did during successive world wars, and before the big 5 realized the threat that hemp was.

Stormy Daniels really missed the boat. She could have teamed up with Don Lapre (instead of Don Trump) on a 900 number service that allows people to communicate with their dead loved ones.
