  1. The problem with that is most voters are fed up with gub'ment employees. I can walk into any county office or DMV and point to a goodly percentage that are just stealing oxygen, on the taxpayer dime. Not to mention, rude. So when I hear about embittered ex-employees, I suspect they're bitter because they were actually required to do something, or find the door. Of course, there are great gub'ment employees, too. And they're just as fed-up with carrying the weight for the dead wood.
  2. Which guy is that? There are hundreds of doctors correlating the increase in autism with the increase in the number of childhood vaccines over the past 50 years. It may just be a temporal, and not a causal correlation, but there is a correlation. Autism rate is increasing. The number of childhood vaccines is increasing. Whether they're related is the question. If one guy lost his license, so what? You still haven't provided a source.
  3. Yes, rich people vote for getting richer. What you're seeing there is a concentration of wealth, with the little guys being forced to move away. Harris/Biden has been great for zillionaires. The normal people can't afford to live there any more, so the population is decreasing while the GDP is going up. Is that a good thing?
  4. New Law Allows Buyers to Inspect Online Orders Before Payment Furthermore, logistics companies must promptly collect returned goods from customers within five days without imposing a collection fee. They are tasked with reviewing complaints and thoroughly examining returned items to ascertain their validity. I'm confused by the title. If I get to inspect before paying, why wouldn't I just decline the order and have the driver take it with him on the spot? Seems like a contradiction...
  5. Eric Adams of NYC said the quiet part out loud when he requested $12 Billion federal dollars to help NYC care for the 110,000 "newcomers" in his city, for 3 years. That's $36K a head per year. While I am open to the possibility that he was padding the numbers a little bit, if you multiply $36K times 10 million illegals, you're talking real money. That's $360 billion a year. With the USA already in debt to the tune of $35 Trillion, we simply can't afford it. Some of us suspect that's why he's being punished with accusations of corruption. He was a party hero right up until he exposed the true cost of the Harris/Biden migrant crisis. And it's not like the "corruption" he's accused of is unusual in politics. Personally, I'd like to see them start with the convicted criminals, then move onto the parasites, then (and only then) deport the ones that aren't contributing more than they're costing. But that's not my job to decide.
  6. It would be the equivalent of Trump doing an interview with Andrew Tate. After diligently avoiding the media for most of his campaign.
  7. What does it mean when the slope of that line is steeper during the Harris/Biden term than it was during the Trump term? (Which was about the same as it was during the Obama term up until Covid). Speaking of lines on graphs, here's another one that tells a story:
  8. Meaning? Idiot speak. Maybe. Or maybe he's alluding to Harris's choice of venues to do an interview with a channel that usually focuses on <deleted> coaching... I don't know who on her staff made that decision. But Trump needs to send her a gift basket. I'll let you do your own Googling. Hint: You won't find it on CNN or MSDNC. But it's all over the right wing sources. Edit: I see a word was censored. But the initials are the same as Brian Johnson.
  9. Sounds like you have a good thing going. Good to hear.
  10. I don't know of anyone that's against immigration. Properly vetted, knowing who you're letting in, and making sure they won't be going on the dole for life. But that's yesterday's immigration policy. Most of us are against opening the border and letting Venezuela (and before that, Castro) empty their prisons so they can enjoy a nice decrease in violent crime in the home country. Not to mention thousands from Iran, (et al) and other adversarial regimes that may not have the USA's best interest at heart.
  11. I wonder if any of his parties served pizza? 'Cause, that would 'splain a lot...
  12. Which invasions did Biden fail to prevent? Fixed it for you... "Just don't" is hardly a deterrent. Threatening to kill a terrorist leader if a single US soldier was harmed, showing him a satellite photo of his home, then walking out of the meeting. That's a deterrent.
  13. But they're driving tourism $$$ to Thailand and not taking work away from Thai people. Quite the reverse, in fact. I think Thailand is actually encouraging them. Regardless of the disdain we old farts may have for them. The OP specifically mentions selling online, in pretty much the same breath as foreigners working illegally in jobs reserved for Thai nationals. I just don't recall "selling online" being on the list of jobs reserved for Thai nationals.
  14. Certainly that's a statement of fact that requires a link to back it up. I don't recall anyone 'splaining away the rise in autism rates in just the past 25 years. https://www.cdc.gov/autism/data-research/index.html#:~:text=About 1 in 36 children has been identified,CDC's Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network.
  15. It's hard to imagine myself caring less who you voted for.
  16. Absolutely not. They all lie. That's why you have to look at their history, and not the words coming out of their mouths. Trump had 4 years with no Russkie invasion, no Hamas invasion, no rampant inflation, no border mayhem, and... and... Harris/Biden? 3-1/2 year disaster, all around the world.
  17. Sure. But they're paroling millions into the country, with immigration hearing dates scheduled years and years into the future. That's just mean, unless they have a plan to let them stay... They should be turned at the border, not after they have settled in, at a cost of $$trillions to the taxpayers.
  18. Remember that time when a lefty economist got a forecast right? Neither do I.
  19. Gosh. I wonder if you could characterize this as another conspiracy theory turning into a spoiler alert? Turning into an "I told you so"? Edit: The capper's gonna come when they reveal that pizza was served at some of the parties.
  20. Or maybe it was to say thank you for not attacking Ukraine like he did under Obama and Biden. A few pretty unreliable test kits is a small price to pay for peace and avoiding Armageddon.
  21. So what you're saying is that FEMA is so busy doling out money and managing projects for illegals, and they don't have enough staff and resources to properly manage a hurricane response. It doesn't look good for them, no matter how you spin it. Especially with all the DEI and social justice pandering that's hitting all but the MSM, who sit in their command posts and say the residents aren't pissed off. You have to click on the non-MSM sites for the truth. FEMA's main focus has been on equity and illegals, not hiring based on merit and caring for American in need. (Kinda like the Secret Service, and we've all seen how that's working out)
  22. There was no bipartisan support. They had a token Repub on the committee that wrote the bill. When the bill allowed for 5000 illegals a day before action was required at the border, it was DOA. With or without Trump's input. It was mostly about spending money on bringing newcomers in and processing them into voters faster.
  23. I don't recall online sales being on the list of occupations reserved for Thais. Did I miss an update? Of course, it probably requires a WP, but didn't they recently change the law to allow WP holders to moonlight in other jobs? Tough to keep up... I'd sure hate to be a teacher or other legal foreign employee supplementing my income selling Beanie Babies, and get banged up and booted for that... Does anyone really know? No guessing...
  24. If the FBI and MSM hadn't covered up the laptop, there would be someone else sitting in the White House. And you could all be real happy his last term is almost over.
  25. The only time I object is if there's a queue and it takes awhile. But then, I only object to them not having enough staff. The fact that they check receipts doesn't faze me in the least, understanding that it keeps my prices lower by reducing shrinkage. If it didn't reduce the shrink, they wouldn't waste the wages paying them.
