POLITICAL THREAD

[cole854]

Such an angry little elf.
Too bad you were too stupid and lazy to get thru school and score a great gig that allowed summers off, lots of vacation time with my kids, full benefits and an early retirement.
It was a very rewarding career.
But you keep working till you're 70. Maybe you'll work your way up to fry cook one day and get a few days off to enjoy life before you stroke out.

Just a few weeks ago, you were moaning and groaning about your salary, which evidently still sucked after 9 years.

Your quote: In my 9th year of teaching my accountant buddy did my taxes. He told me it was too bad I didn't make 500 dollars less in teacher salary or my family would qualify for government assistance.

The transformation from “Awe Shucks Mikey” to “Komrade Mikey” was both swift & comical.

And predictable

Penny should probably steer clear of the Bronx for a while.

if i were him i’d already be gone from the state of ny

 

[Lost In FL]

Now his family wants to sue. Where were these dipshits when he was living on the street.

They're just cashing in on his death.

Too bad Penny cannot countersue them for defamation.

And add Bragg to that as well. 15 years for both of them. I know it will never happen, but it Might stop that shit quick.

We know…hahaha

But he is "cooogent" and "sharp as a tack" from what I heard from shins and scarjoe.

You really don't have to argue with leftists. Just let them talk and they will hang themselves everytime. When you're controlled by emotion and don't employ logic at all, it's inevitable that you will be caught in a lie because reality doesn't matter. Only what they feel at any given moment.

Yep, Penny will be served within a fortnight, with a wrongful death civil suit. Zero doubt about it.

Revealed: Trump to Pardon January 6th Protesters on “Day One”

During his Sunday appearance on Meet the Press, President Donald Trump said he would pardon January 6 protesters on “day one” of his second non-consecutive term in office. “I’m going to be acting v…

My prediction as we enter the new year…

John Thune will get what he wants and push a shitty border, energy and military bill early in 2025 to pay off big donors, then Republicans will lose their House majority during the year through Trump appointments, establishment resignations for payoffs and/or left wing assassinations, and a second budget resolution for tax reform will be dead.

Make no mistake, tax reform is the biggest issue for everyday Americans, i.e. Trump voters, and Thune and the establishment are going to kill it to undermine Trump’s agenda like they did last time.

“I will not waste my final two years in the Florida Legislature being ignored in a caucus whose leadership expects me to ignore the needs of my community,” Valdés posted in a statement to X. “I’m tired of being the party of protesting when I got into politics to be part of the party of progress.”

Well said. Hope she becomes a constitutional Republican.

Probably so. He is going to eventually have to move and change his name. He will be a target from this day forward.

You’re giving the establishment republicans too much credit. They have soft undersides and have a habit of doing whatever it takes to stay in power. I think Trump passes more of his agenda than you think (Hell, Liz Cheney voted in step with him like 97% of the time).

Liberal women talk to voters like they are idiot 4th graders.

I guess some are.

Well last time McConnell torpedoed Trump’s agenda and the establishment played into the Russia collusion hoax. The establishment, backed by the donors they serve, have a habit of staying in power even when they stand opposed to what the voters wanted.

And the post you're responding to is why liberals are so easily conned into things. Beyond their intellectual dishonesty and laziness, they have no ability to be reasonable about anything. They can't be bothered to look at the platforms and voting record of Dems and Rinos to see that their voting record reveals orchestration to prevent better legislation from being proposed and passed.

The media has helped create their blindspot, but it's not like they haven't chosen that selective blindness in the first place.

As is the case with most people on the planet, they will not search for truth until they bottom out in some drastic way. Unfortunately for liberals in the welfare system of thinking, they've been conditioned to stay at the bottom and don't even realize they've bottomed out because of the system they worship. TRULY working people are figuring it out. Govt employees not so much.

I am merely trying to engage in discussion. I assumed he would say certain things would be mentioned, but I am asking for the sake of conversation. It doesn't have to be so bombastic all the time here.

Not for guys like Thune, McConnell, Graham, etc.

I'm kinda mixed on Dr. Kissinger. He had his moments, but was a level head during Nixon admin, unlike many others.

I think the incentive of gaining seats in Georgia and New Hampshire is enough for them to get on the bandwagon.

I think inaction will be deadly this term. Gotta see campaign promises kept for a successful midterm.

I thought Kissinger was great in Dr. Strangelove.

History (at least since 2016) has shown the Republican establishment does not give a shit whether it’s the majority party or minority party, so long as they’re maintaining the grip on the party.

Replacing Ronna McRomney was a good step. But team McConnell still held control of the Senate.

The establishment cares about funding wage MIC and pharma. They don’t give a shit about how much tax is taken out of your paycheck.

Read her body language here. She's not stupid so much as a sociopath.

Looking to her right and away from eye contact she comes up with the following-

She says, "That tells us everything," yet is shaking her head "no," indicating she believes that statement is a lie.

"If we do not want violence on our subways" is a word choice that should coincide with a "no" shaking when she says "not" if she doesn't want that, instead gives us a "yes" head nod.

Some of her next few statements sandwich the appropriate head gestures around another contradictory set which indicates in this case a planned deception.

She starts shaking her head "no" before she even talks about the person committing manslaughter showing remorse, and continues to do so while saying it. She then moves on to the unintentional/innocent killer expressing remorse but shakes her head appropriately to the statement. Two things are going on here. She knows manslaughter is not intentional murder, though she's framing it that way, so she knows the entire premise-to-conclusion is a lie and she's caught herself in it.

People convicted of manslaughter (who kill someone unintentionally, but not entirely innocently, as their actions still caused it indirectly), may in fact show remorse. Yet she shakes her head "no" when talking about it.

The last few statements about "accountability" bring her body language back into agreement with each other, but that is a skillful correction meant to bolster her poor arguments given earlier and to somehow link that conclusion as something valid following directly from her statements.


She indicates she wants violence/lack of safety on the subways, and is trying to say that Penny will kill someone again, because he did it without remorse before. She knows he didn't intentionally kill him, as the jury rightly found, but she is creatively casting him in that light. That is what a sociopath does.

Ignored completely is that the man was not dead when released by Penny to the police, who refused to even attempt to save him.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Therein lies the true beauty of Trump: Republicans hate him more than the Democrats. Proof positive that he essentially stands alone for what matters most; the American people.

Haha. I'll never stop using X.

We will one day know if Kissinger not getting what he wanted led to Nixon leaving office. That's my hunch. We have no idea now what went on behind closed doors, but some of the things he's said over the years make me think Kkssinger was a globalist working on our slow demise.
