USAID - Dems in full delusional mode as usual
theblether replied to theblether's topic in Political Soapbox
Do you understand how Congress works? I just read you are not an American. Neither am I, but wow, you've got to get a grip on yourself. You spend all day every day talking about a foreign country's governance? Mental stuff. -

Did he mention in a single year? Nope. He'll do $2 trillion over 4 years easily, are you annoyed? -

You are easily the most gullible and delusional poster on this forum. The link is to the notorious Democrat mouthpiece - NPR. They point out that the cost of the top 25 tier procedures - ie, the expensive ones, dropped by 6.3%. Ah, but you will celebrate the 3.4% rise in the cost of lower tier procedures? Then you'll get annoyed that it was well under inflation for that period. Even Biden joined in the push for transparency, you're actually arguing against a policy that the Dems agreed to promote and legislated to expand Trump's initial push. Once again, just be quiet. https://www.npr.org/2024/12/19/nx-s1-5233326/trump-health-care-price-transparency-employers- 440 replies

Reading that USAID granted $70,000 for a LGBT stage show in Ireland. And $45 million for sexual reproduction and health in Gaza. Dear me. -

Oldest trick in the book, grow the people that depend on the government for their employment, turn them into servants. If Fed gov lays off a hundred thousand that work around DC it will bring Virginia back into play for the GOP at the next election of they and their families relocate. Almost all Fed employees in DC area vote Dem. -

USAID has been hollowed out. The Dems are melting down. The American electorate are spewing at some of the places the money went. Dems say only Congress can shut it down. Go ahead, Dems - defend it and drown under the river of derision heading your way. -
And - Canada folded. This thread now reads like a comedy skit. Our brigade of left wing nutters will be enraged that Trump won again.

USAID - there are six named D.O.G.E. geniuses pouring through this department line by line. Aged 19 to 24, Dems are calling them little boys. Translation - they are cr*pping themselves as these young men are ripping USAID apart. $20,000 to fund a LGBT comic book in Peru among many other ridiculous grants. But here's the real problem - Dems are saying USAID is only 1% of the Federal budget. True. But D.O.G.E has only had access for days, and Trump was inaugurated 2 weeks ago. Give it 18 months and we'll see how much waste and abuse is going around the Fed budgets. The problem for Dems is that they are downplaying these "small amounts" of money. By the midterms the GOP will be able to demonstrate at least half a trillion of savings. So what will the Dems say then? "Oh, it's only half a trillion?" But here's where the party will really start. Wait till D.O.G.E get their hands on the Medicaid and Medicaire contracts. They're going to uncover wild overcharging to the US government and consumers. Good luck trying to win the midterms if Trump crashes the cost of medication. I predict a midterm landslide.

He's just suspended the Mexico tariff for a month in exchange for 10 000 Mex troops being sent to secure the border.

Will DOGE Be Effective In Cutting Wasteful Spending?
theblether replied to Hawaiian's topic in Political Soapbox
US debt clock here - D.O.G.E. is in line to have saved $50 billion a mere two weeks after the inauguration. You can watch it at the link. https://www.usdebtclock.org/index.html -
^^ Dear me. Pathetic.

Put a gun to my head and I'll come up with two theories. 1. He's trolling Trudeau and the Liberals, trying to get Poilievre elected so he can join in the anti-woke agenda. Or: 2. He's going to drag Canada into the Greenland - Northwest Passage issue and get them to support hIS demand for Greenland to come under the control of the USA. But truthfully I don't know what's behind all this?

I've got to be honest, I'm a bit confused about Trump's attitude to Canada. He can't seriously expect them to become the 51st state so there must be something else at play - any guesses? Setting that to the side, I can see why he got annoyed re illegal immigration from Canada - Mexicans worked out they could fly there and enter overland as mentioned on this link. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-tariffs-immigration-canada-b2653974.html

Elon Musk Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize by European Politician
theblether replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The Nobel Peace prize lost all credibility when they gave the award to Obama. To be fair to Obama, even he was embarrassed. He only got it cos it was the only way the committee members could guarantee getting to meet him. -
Utter drivel. You should be ashamed of yourself for posting such garbage on this forum . By the way, do some research on Rebecca Lobach, I'll leave you to drag the forum into that particular gutter. You seem to be comfortable there. Then again, we all know Dems love a good Hoax. Russian collusion anyone?
-
Here we go - and here's the nuance. Lobach was on a training flight. Who was actually at the controls at the point of collision? I don't know. Who is responsible? Lobach, if she was at the controls, or the instructor? There's another report floating about that I can't verify - so it might be a hoax - that Lobach wasn't medically certificated to fly. I've got more info here but I can't be bothered getting into an argument with trolls trying to blame Trump who are that stupid they spread Big Foot type links. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/black-hawk-helicopter-investigation-pilots-flight-path-dc-plane-crash-rcna190031

Utterly absurd comment. You should know better than have a go at me over that stupidity. I know exactly who the online personality Jo Ellis purports to be. This is the equivalent of saying "Oprah has been elected the Queen of England." You should be ashamed of yourself linking to that utter drivel. Next you'll be linking to Big Foot seen shopping in 5th Avenue with Elvis. Just be quiet.

I worked alongside the 11th ACR, Fulda, Germany. I knew many pilots and stay in touch with one. He isn't putting the boot in as he says the investigation will nail down exactly what happened so just wait. He also said the preliminary report expected in a month will be accurate. The full report, expected in a year, is where the fire will be. He ( and I ) remember fatal air accident reports back in the day. If the pilot is at fault, it will be made clear no matter how hurtful it is to the family. The simple reason is that the operative function of Army air units and USAF cannot depend on feelings. He said the CBS report of the helicopter flying at 400 feet is in itself catastrophic. But he also said that has to be verified. He cautions - if it's true, the pilot is going to be crucified by the report. This guy is now a commercial airline pilot. I can tell he's enraged but biting his tongue. Maybe we should all bite our tongues and that includes the partisans indicating that Trump was wrong when live radar readings say he was correct.
