I doubt they ever shoot IRON SIGHTED Glocks past 25 yards in training.

 

Although they could have had M4s in a Golf cart. Im going to be interested in what scenario went down.

I had to qualify yearly with Baretta 9m and 15 yds was the max.

The Iranian surge in oil exports since President Biden took over has brought Iran an additional $32 billion to $35 billion, according to the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. The calculations are tricky, but the cause of the Iranian windfall is clear: As part of Mr. Biden’s quiet diplomacy with Iran, the U.S. has curtailed sanctions enforcement. Customers and middlemen have concluded the risk is low and the discount on Iran’s oil is too good to pass up.

Define "living wage"

If you're a beach guy I'd look for a place where the water is clear most of the year. Pick a place slightly away from touristy but close enough for the convenience of food and shopping and Medical services. I can make it to Pattaya in 30 min by M 7 but then to the Malls could be another 30 min when traffic is bad.

Ok. And as per the article, she was dealing with the root causes of why people leave their countries. This is a long term strategy and not a   quick fix.  VP Harris initiated investments that would create economic opportunities that would keep people where they were. When people  have a decent job, they are not going to  undertake a high risk journey to a place where they know they will be exploited.  VP Harris also helped initiate the counter crime measures that have seen countries. The containment of  gangs reduces the need of people to flee violent crime. I have repeatedly explained this activity.

If you wish to ignore the explanation and continue to post  idiotic claims of  of a non existent  position and one without any legal standing, do so, but be honest and describe it as your imagining.

She was tasked with curbing the flow of migrants. You can dance around that anyway you want. And, she didn't even go to the border. She's worse than an idiot, she's a lazy idiot.

Was giving my 12 y old 100 baht a day.

No she was not. You cannot show that she was ever given this  "task'. 

 

VP Harris was never the “border czar,” or put in charge of border security or halting illegal border crossings, as former President Donald Trump, Republicans and even the occasional media outlet have claimed. Instead, she was tasked in March 2021 with tackling the “root causes” of migration from the Northern Triangle and pushing its leaders — along with Mexico’s — to enforce immigration laws.

She used  her position as VP to win investments that might curb migration years down the road.  “She felt — and I think she was right — that what she could do the most was help basically lead the effort to draw in investment, using the confidence that a relationship with the White House would give to investors,” said Ricardo Zúniga, a former State Department official who specialized in the Northern Triangle and who traveled with Harris to the region.

 

A senior administration official said Harris' role would focus on "two tracks": both curbing the current flow of migrants and implementing a long-term strategy that addresses the root causes of migration. Cabinet members, including the secretary of state, are expected to work closely with Harris on these issues.

Actually, she had a valid point depending on the audience Harris is blabbering her word salad to or who she is identifying with that day 

 

Curry or collard greens.

That's just funny.

Sounds more like employer exploitation. So may Americans are on low hourly rates. In a sense it's an insult to encourage them to work overtime, you know a thing called work / life balance or isn't that recognised for the low paid in the US for quality of life?

No, it's more like I want a house, nice car, take vacations, provide kid with private school. The American Dream isn't handed to you.

Sure, when you are on a low hourly rate, as are so many American workers who are compelled to work overtime to pay their costs.

I liked to double my salary with min of 30hrs a week OT.

You're clueless of how Americans get ahead. Just because you can pay the bills on 40 hrs doesn't mean you don't want nice extras.

For the hourly employee, OT is how you get ahead.

Reminds me of the Irish bashers in the 19th century.

 

Racism doesn't change, only the victims do.

The immigrants of old had to pass stringent rules. My parents and sibs passed through Ellis Is. So please direct your boring comments elsewhere

Scary brown people 

Put the citizens out of work with lower wages. People evicted to make room for the Haitians who bring in higher gov assistance. Crime. Why don't you go live there and report back.

I believe they'll only give another 2 yr license instead of the 5 yr.
