Google is your friend. Just watched two Asian ladies coming to blows in the Costco parking lot. They were pissed
POLITICAL THREAD
- Thread starter kybobcat
- Start date
"Thousands lost their jobs for refusing an experimental vaccine. The media cheered it on.
Here are some recent mass layoffs that the media is also silent about:
Southwest Airlines: 1,750 employees
Chevron: 8,000 employees
Estée Lauder: 7,000 employees
Meta: 3,600 employees
They didn’t get invited on MSNBC to talk about losing their jobs. Are you paying attention??"

Just as with USAID, our system is overrun with fraud.
Ah yes, the dangerous Asian ladies. Always keep your head on a swivel around them.
Do you truly believe that? Do per capita crime stats not exist in your world?
Seems DEMentia is endemic to that party now. Who'd have guessed it
"The ozone hole is threatening to open up over Kennebunkport...." LMAO!!!
If the real Al Gore didn't invent the internet, we couldn't look up these marvelous SNL gems all these years later. Great comedic license used here, giving an ozone hole human characteristics. Darrell Hammond really sells it. Even if the 10yr timeline he gives is completely ridiculous, it really does mimic the real life threat that still hasn't materialized.
I don't remember Rush Limbaugh hosting SNL, though...
This is great...posted about half of it:
"I'm concerned that many people do not understand the historical and institutional context in which the DOGE labor reforms are unfolding. They look at this as if these are some random, chaotic, arbitrary, strange, and even cruel measures to impose on a devoted civil service....
Get this: no one has ever known what to do about it. Not Coolidge, not Hoover, not Nixon, not Reagan, not Clinton, no one. No president has been able to crack this nut...countless cabinet secretaries have come and gone, always with the intention of making a change but leaving saddened, demoralized, outwitted, outgunned, and ultimately devoured.
No president has seriously taken on this problem because they simply did not know how. The unions are powerful, the intimidation from the deep institutional knowledge is overwhelming, the fear of the media as been powerful, and every single president comes to power vaguely feeling threatened by the intelligence agencies....
Voting never made any difference because the politicians no longer controlled the system. The bureaucracies ruled all.
The Biden years underscored the point. We didn't even need a conscious and present executive. We only needed a figurehead to pretend to be president, just like the Soviet premiers in the old days. The institutions ran everything and the people controlled nothing.
Four years have gone by and Trump is back again, this time with a determination to slay this beast, one that he knows all-to-well. The efforts of DOGE and MAHA and MAGA are epic in scope, breaking a century of pathetic acquiescence toward the deep, middle, and shallow states, at last using moral courage to confront the problem head on, come what may.
They are profoundly aware that they MUST act fast and with some degree of ferocity, even recklessness, else we will default back to the status quo of leaders who pretend to be in charge while the embedded system runs things behind the scenes.
They simply must succeed. There might never be another chance. The way of failure is the path everyone knows the US was on, toward economic stagnation, political sclerosis, and eventual irrelevance in the unfolding of the next stage of social evolution."

What has Massie done to Jewish groups that they want to prevent him from becoming senator? I'm not really up on what such groups have been doing the last 10 years and how Massie has harmed them. Most of the Jewish groups I know are liberal rather than conservative, so they don't really need another reason, but like you I don't get how they have so much influence in our govt affairs.
I understand the Catholic influence, as there are a ton of Catholics in this country and a lot of govt employees that are Catholics, but I thought the Jewish population was still relatively small by comparison.
That story could just be blowing smoke...
Trumph.... DOGE sh**.... MuskRat....77,284,118 say otherwise. But muh feels and eggs!
Home Sales Drop 4.9% in January in Disappointing Start to the New Year
Existing-home sales dropped 4.9% last month from December, to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.08 million.
He doesn’t kiss their ass or take their money. As for the RJC, they aren’t exactly a powerhouse corporation.
Gets Bongino at the top of the FBI easy....Deputy Director does not require Senate confirmation.
We need to know everything about the assassination attempts...this is the guy for the job:

I hate Trump so I’m gonna take it out on our National Hockey Team, is about as immature of a take as I’ve ever seen.

Was kinda hoping Bongino would head up the Secret Service. But this is great too.
Need Kash and Bongino in their personally supervising it.
You've heard of Florida Man. Let me introduce you to "Austin Man". Ya can't make this stuff up.
It appears Germany is coming around. Read incoming chancellor wants to break with USA. Stay tuned.
UPDATE: National sovereignty can only suffer so much BS. Yes, enough is enough.

Make no mistake, Google is not your friend.
I love many aspects of Austin, TX But, reading the room is not a strong point.
This is a kick in the nuts to my daily podcast schedule.
Any recommendations?
Well if Merz wants Europe to become less dependent on the US then I assume that includes increasing their NATO "dues" from 2 percent of their GDP to 5 percent. I mean, just a like an 18 YO that wants independence from his or her parents, paying your own way is requisite.
Best of luck selling THAT Herr Merz.

With China's economic disaster they'd do well to stay the f*** out of our business. Without American consumers they're, you know, F***ED.
It's a mute point anyway. If Barr wants it, the KY GOP is going to expedite him IMO. (and I think he'd crush D - Pamela Stevenson)
I thought Andy Beshear might want it (and he'd be almost unbeatable), but I think he's eyeing the Democrat nomination for POTUS in 2028

I’ve not been following Mike Benz too closely, but was Pussy Riot a USAID op? Or did we know that for a fact years ago?
Pass it and watch Democrats lose their minds.
That's because children (the left) don't have fully formed brains yet, and so they irrationally criticize the grown-ups.
My MIL... Huge lib/fem... retired teacher (go figure). Michelle Obama's book displayed on her coffee table...I've been telling her for over a decade "watch your head, incoming pendulum. You can't paint normal people into the criminal corner forever... "
So, she's pivoted to shaming me in the last 2 weeks...
"Well, J, I guess you were right. Well, I hope you guys get everything you think you voted for, and I hope it doesn't come at a cost to others. Hope your pendulum doesn't swing so far that we all lose our rights, etc, etc... "
She's 82.
🤣
That sounds like my MIL (80)
Yesterday she tried to convince me that the vast majority of Federal government workers vote Republican. LOL

Abso****inglutely I did.Is this what you voted for?? Scumbag felons who now think they are above the law.... Can hang out at the Capitol.... assault women and threaten the Capitol police??
Trump sucks.
Enrique Tarrio follows and insults officers who defended US Capitol on January 6

Yep. Dissenters of the previous regime are always the first up against the wall in the new regime.
Generally, it is the ones who were doing the least that complain the most when getting fired. The left feel that they deserve a work environment that allows them to decide when they want to actually do their jobs.

You couldn't get me on a plane rn even if the damned thing was filled with $100 bills.I can remember when flying was actually an enjoyable venture. People nicely dressed....decent (not great except for Braniff) food....pleasant people (mostly upper middle to upper class). Times have changed. Atlanta airport.......
Beshear might beat Massie, but he'd get crushed by Barr. The senate race will rival the POTUS one in terms of Republican voters.
Joy Reid could fill your spot... 😁 😁 😁
