1.4 trillion a year would be awesome if we could keep the legislature from pretending it is extra surplus and spending it.

Your thoughts definitely don't do shit, unhinged communist lunatic.
Why do tariffs hurt trade for us but not for other countries? Like Canada for instance. They have a trade surplus with the US yet they tariff the shit out of almost all our products. Many of their tariffs are over 100% and some are over 200%. How come it only works one way?
Did you all hear about this. It's probably been posted but I guess I've been under a rock. Trans vegan genius death cult called Ziz. lol wtf?
H1-b visa holders from Germany shot a border patrol agent in New England. They evidently get around. Their guns were linked to a double homicide in Pennsylvania. They are wanted in California for impaling a man with a sword and repeatedly stabbing him after squatting on his property.

The case of the radical ‘Zizian’ vegan trans cult and the shooting death of a Border Patrol agent
The murder of a US Border Patrol agent near the Canadian border appears to be linked to a radical leftist trans militant cult accused of killings across the country.

A 3 day DEI training. Jesus.
The very big problem is if they prove that the FAA purposely went under staffed just because they couldn't find more DEI hires, while leaving thousands of more-than-qualified candidates on the table.
THAT, is the type of shit most of the US wants stopped
Two questions....
Has anybody seen/read/heard how many people are working in/for DOGE? Seems they're uncovering a lot quickly. Lots of whistleblowers?
and two....
So....did his new agreement not do what he intended? Did Biden trash it like so many other Trump related policies?

In his first term Trump touted his new trade agreements with Canada and Mexico. Talked of how bad NAFTA was. Etc, etc.

I think a couple of people who attacked Rome were foreigners raised in the Roman Empire. Jugurtha and Hannibal I think being the most famous.... Been a while since I read up on that though so ... LOL.

Well long term it does hurt both, and just makes it so that one or both countries look for different trading partners, which ends up a net negative as you’re eliminating sources of trade. Long term. It’s similar to when democrats want to tax corporations more. What happens? The corporations start doing business in other countries that tax less. You might remember all the bad PR Apple got 5 years ago when it was discovered it was doing all its business from an address in Ireland since Ireland only had like a 2% tax or something and not paying any taxes in the US at all
Hate the NBA (wonder why)......and don't watch
I saw someone linked an article but I got the 1000 number from a lawsuit against the FAA.
Trump cuts of funding to South Africa:
"There has been a targeting of white farmers in the country.
TRUMP: "South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY. It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention. A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see."

More proof that the Dems are just a collection of mentally ill and low IQ simpletons who are in a race to destroy themselves. They clearly are doubling down on the stupidity that led to the loss. They end up electing 2 wealthy white males, one heavily soy based, while pushing their craziness.
Says the one that voted for the fascist putting people in the Guantanamo gulag, creating trade wars with allies, threatening to invade Greenland/Panama, purging the FBI of agents and shi**ing on our Constitution.
But I'm a commie for opposing that lunacy. Ok
Then how would you keep sending money to Ukraine without either taxes or tariffs? That would be hard for you to decide on then.
BS. The hit list of FBI agents involved in the investigation of Jan6 criminals has zero to do with job skills.
FBI agents are assigned jobs. They don't pick their assignments.
Dumb as hell policy.
Trump's stupid policies will increase China's influence in the world. He's pushing our 2 biggest trade partners right into China's arms.
Dumbfu** policies that are gonna trash our economy.

Andy Ngo has been on this for a couple weeks. Wild how this isn't getting any national news. Even for liberal MSM you would think this would get a mention.
Not sure.... but Biden sure did away with everything that was working. Wouldn't doubt if he voided it.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk under President Trump's administration, has been focusing on identifying and cutting wasteful government spending through various strategies. Based on available information:
- Reviewing and Canceling Contracts: DOGE has been scrutinizing existing federal contracts, particularly those related to DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) programs. They have canceled contracts amounting to significant savings, with reports indicating around $420 million in contracts and leases were canceled in the first few days of operation.
- Eliminating Unoccupied Buildings: Another strategy involves identifying and disposing of or repurposing government buildings that are not in use. This initiative targets reducing real estate costs associated with maintenance and lease payments for unused federal properties.
- DEI Program Cuts: A significant portion of the savings comes from cutting back on what the DOGE identifies as non-essential or overly expansive DEI programs. For example, there were mentions of cutting $113 billion from federal contracting related to DEI initiatives.
- Reducing Bureaucracy: DOGE aims to streamline government operations, cutting red tape and reducing unnecessary bureaucratic layers. This includes revisiting government employment, potentially reducing positions or reorganizing departments for efficiency.
- Public Transparency Tools: The introduction of a "DOGE CLOCK" on the U.S. Debt Clock website to publicly track savings in real-time indicates an approach to keep the public informed and possibly to maintain pressure on achieving these savings.
- Targeting Fraud, Waste, and Abuse: The initiative also involves a broader look at government spending to identify areas where fraud, waste, or abuse might be occurring, aiming to claw back funds or prevent future misallocation.

No coverage because the Left does not shine a light on their own lunatics. They would be pardoned by Biden if he were still around.
I'm hoping he gets primaried. He also (IIRC) did not endorse Trump.
I asked Grok how much Canada tariffs China. You aren't going to believe this.... but Canada tariffs us more than they do China.. Amazing.

I'm kind of torn on legal immigration. On one hand yes we do need some immigrants who love America to come in... especially ones that are skilled. But I wouldn't hate the idea of maybe banning legal immigration for 15 years or so because the American people have been screwed over for so long. Let us fix ourselves for a while and then let people back in.
Might not be a popular take though and that's fine.

Wiki page says 20 employees in main building with teams embedded in Federal agencies. So who knows.
Crazy thing about traditional government is that they keep a record of literally everything, even their misdeeds. Some of it is SOP, some is CYA, and some of it is just naivety. Point is that they don't need whistleblowers because what they are finding is just right out there in the open.
What's scary is that the things being found are just the tip of the iceberg. Wait until they start to turn the screws on people and they squeal about the hidden stuff. That is going to be mind blowing if they dare to reveal it to the public.
There’s several million people in South Africa who are hard working and culturally similar to us, and who are going to be legitimate refugees in the very near future.
