He’s helping. 😂
 
This just popped up on my X feed. Wow….. This young lady’s perspective strongly resembles that of a poster on this board:



This is why the issue needs to be left up to the states. There’s never going to be a common ground between those of us who look at those two separate ultrasounds and think they both are valuable lives, and those who ask who the mother or father is before deciding if the baby in the ultrasound is worth so little it can be freely killed.
 
If the federal government is unwilling to step in to help citizens of the country at a time like this (and instead provides support to foreign countries and illegal aliens), we have no need for a federal government.

Trump needs to win and have Elon and Vivek fire everyone.

Hopefully that phone app people used to get flights and money left behind a gps tracker so we can conveniently scoop them up and kick them out.

Im sure thats just wishful thinking. Upon arrival in the states, libs probably made sure the illegal filled out a voter registration, provided a signature sample, gave a burner phone, and preloaded debit card.

Its literally treason. The dnc is literally conspiring with foreign actors to overthrow the republic.
 
Here's more for sam 😂


One election was handled like all past elections… oh, except Facebook memes. Don’t forget the memes. We heard nothing but rigged and Russian interference. You were encouraged to question this election.

The other was handled completely differently (yeah, yeah I know… muh covid) you were barely allowed to post anything on social media pro Trump leading up the election because it was “fact checked” and removed, you certainly couldn’t question the election or any of the umpteen middle of the night happenings on election night… and this is the one deemed most free and fair.

🤔

The handling of this by the federal government has me furious. There are people who could have been saved, who won’t be because the government “gave all they can” and $750… while I’m sure we’ll announce within the next month we’re sending another few billion to Ukraine, Israel or Taiwan. It’s outrageous.

I also remember when Bush flew over Louisiana and it was the most disrespectful, out of touch thing ever. The media was all over it. Constant coverage on every station for a month tearing down the federal government’s response.

We do not hate the media or government enough. Absolutely disgusting.
 
Eat it California.



"The judge ruled that the law, AB 2839, likely violates the First Amendment

.The court found the law was overly broad, sweeping in even parody or satire videos that could be considered to "undermine confidence" in an election. The judge argued this amounted to unconstitutional suppression of political speech.

While the state argued the law targeted legally cognizable harms, the court said it went beyond existing exceptions like defamation. The judge stated that "even deliberate lies" about the government are protected under the First Amendment.


Ultimately, the court concluded the law failed strict scrutiny, as less restrictive measures like labeling requirements could address the state's concerns. "

The constitutionality of that law was questioned when it was just a bill. Every legislator who passed that law and the governor were aware of the illegal nature of the bill. Yet, they passed the law anyway. It tells you something about the Dems in this country.
 

Kenp’s concerns are legitimate. The claim that the government is telling people to not help others directly is really odd. Exhausting FEMA funding on an illegal problem that was botched and spun from the very get-go is troubling. But, while I question many international decisions, the $750 appears to be an immediate need provision and not a long term solution regarding assistance. Getting that money to people for the short term immediate needs seems understandable. I am not sure why I should view that through the filter of international assistance.

But, someone may be able to enlighten me.
 
Remember back in 2016 when some libs claimed Trump was going to put all gay people in concentration camps?
I had a classmate from HS tell me that she was worried for her son's safety ... because he is mixed and she thought "trump the raaaaysist" was going to round up all the blacks and put them in camps.

TDS is real and the Democrats have perfected mis/disinformation (aka lies).

Someone actually told them Trump was a racist and told others Trump hated gay people. It was a repeated lie over and over and over again. TDS is real, but it was created by the Dems. People believe the lies.

Every single person in eky who took this pittance from FEMA eas rewarded with their property being declared in thr flood plane and a requirement the homeowner forever pay national flood insurance. This despite 1) many of those properties never flooding before and 2) the reason they did was insane epa restrictions on dredging of creeks and rivers.

There will be many people who will be forced out of their homes because flood insurance is insanely high and most these folks were barely hanging on before.

We're from the government and we're here to help.

I can see this both ways. I live in FL less than a mile from the Atlantic ocean and my insurer requires me to have flood insurance. If that was not the case, and I had no flood insurance, why should I expect the federal government to step in and provide me with flood aid?
 


The best part of her completely awful attempts at answering anything is when you see her grin with that glimmer in her eye. That look tells you in that moment she thinks shes killing that answer.

Lol she's so stupid its incredible.
I'll take 'Long winded, non sequiturs, nonsensical answers for $500, Alex'.

If someone lives in a place that floods frequently they should have it under current requirements. However it should not be forced simply because a property flooded once. Especially not when much of the flooding was caused because the epa stopped the practice of dredging creeks and rivers.

Plus fema assistance is not intended to be a secret trigger for flood insurance. They give a homeowner a one time benefit of $750 for a disaster the government helped create, and in return the homeowner/victim now gets to pay 1500+ every year for flood insurance. How is that helping anyone?

You come across the border illegally....no money, healthcare, educational opportunities, job, phone.................why should the government step in and give you all of these for free?

Better yet....what if a group of illegals have a multi-generational dwelling on the beach and it is wiped out. Will they get assistance to get a new home and food/supplies?
 
Saw the latest Rasmussen poll where almost 2/3rds of likely voters say that cheating affected the 2020 election outcome and they also expect it to affect the 2024 outcome. Those numbers “now include a majority of democrats”.

Our resident commies have lost the plot.

You know your brain is rot when you think 2016 was rigged for Trump and your example is what? Claiming the DNC leaks and Facebook memes of Jesus arm wrestling the devil? 😂 But then arguing 2020 was legit despite the mail-in ballots, the statistical anomalies, the stopping the count in the middle of the night, the Dems pulling buckets out with no supervision, the getting of ballot mules, the FBI burying the Hunter laptop story?

You’re a hack if you claim 2020 was legit but then argue 2016 was rigged which they absolutely did. Then how do you claim this year isn’t interference if you’re claiming Iran is hacking and giving stuff to the Dems (which they admit to) and you’re claiming they’re trying to kill your opponent which the left has tried to do twice already.

The Russia thing was so beyond f’n dumb considering who the opposing candidate was given the pay to play garbage and speaking fees, and the idea that a foreign nation

I think we've seen from recent disasters (particularly, Helene/Ashville), though, that flooding happens in places far away from coastal areas. And I don't think the federal government should have a policy that differentiates between flood aid in my FL community and eastern KY. You would want them to say if my property floods, in order to get aid I have to buy flood insurance, but the same principal does not apply to Eastern Ky or Western NC?

As far as the "trigger" argument, I guess this is intended to be a prudent use of government resources. You wouldn't want the government to repeatedly pay the same person aid for flood damage when they could have purchased insurance. But like with many things, it seems unfair in certain circumstances in actual practice.
 
Well, Trump may be the rare person who feels the need to “pull that off.” That is a meaningless move that may excite the sycophant, but holds no other productive purpose. Being presidential matters. It is a flaw of Trump that he is not. The fact he is not is the main reason why this race is close. He would have never lost to Joe Biden if he was presidential.

Think about that. We would not have suffered through the past four pathetic years if Trump was presidential.
I disagree with that being meaningless.

The government has numerous agencies that map floodplains and tell you what will flood. These suggestions get ignored. They are not convenient. If there's one thing there's a lot of expertise in in the government, it's flooding. USGS, USDA, FEMA, USACE all have top experts in flooding.

Beyond the fact the government is involved in insurance, i have no issue with a flood prone property being included in the program. These are not flood prone.

They arent repeatedly paying the same person. Its a first time ever benefit, for which the person qualifies. These are not properties with a flood history and in fact many never flooded before.

The only qualifying element is they received a one time fema benefit. I guarantee if they were fully informed accepting this pittance would result in a massive negative outcome, they wouldn't do it.

The final piece of the stupid puzzle is the epa needs to stop their insane prevention of dredging. Especially in mountainous areas, run off builds up settlement in creek and river beds and needs dredged every year. Before, every year these communities would dredge early spring and/or late fall. Its along the same stupid lines as the prevention of cutting dead brush in California that leads to disaster.
