Eldest has bought 1st home, asked for a basic household item for Xmas. Google tells me I can buy it from the American manufacturer for just under $50. Same page shows evil big boxers offering it 35% cheaper. Big orders mean they can screw the makers just as they screw their employees, while (more)

According to the US Coast Guard, the year prior to Trump changing our policy to summary execution, only 21% of the vessels interdicted by them off the coast of Venezuela suspected of trafficking drugs had drugs on board. The other 79% had nothing. But now we just kill them all.

Exactly. The Dem’s don’t know how to talk about this nightmare. Someday maybe they’ll learn to talk like real people. Until then anyone listening to them will think they’re just disappointed at the other team bending the rules instead of being volcanically angry at this complete sadistic breakdown.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

Thinking about RFKjr’s horror at the chronic diseases modern Americans suffer. All these people who have managed to survive infant death, childhood infections, STDs, & malnutrition now live long enough to develop diabetes, heart disease & cancer. So the solution is to kill more of us as children?

While tearing our hair out over illegal orders, treason, Putin’s wish list for Ukraine, Saudi deals, price of healthcare, price of groceries, tariff ‘war on Christmas’ — the regime is quietly arranging to ‘follow the law’ so slowly that we frogs will be well boiled before the Epstein files are out.

Social Security is not dying. It is being starved. We need it, the rich do not. The cap that shields the wealthy from paying more is a wall made up of greed. Lift it & the system is reborn. Voters keep choosing those who serve the wealthy, then wonder why the table is empty. #ProtectSocialSecurity

Isn’t the whole idea that $$ spent on building a business & paying out salaries gets a more favorable tax rate than $$ in the vault or in the yacht? (NOT buying back stock btw). So why are we taking them off the tax hook for money NOT reinvested? Lose the loopholes.

The President of the United States is calling for sitting Members of Congress to be killed.

Every death threat against them and their families will be on his hands.

Regardless of your party, every American should loudly condemn this.

Instead of protecting Americans from AI abuses, this Executive Order goes after states—even threatening access to rural broadband—for putting in place basic guardrails for consumers, children, and creators.

The Senate already rejected this, and it should be rejected again.
Breaking news: The Trump administration is drafting an executive order that would direct the Justice Department to sue states that pass laws regulating artificial intelligence, according to a copy reviewed by The Post.
White House drafts order directing Justice Department to sue states that pass AI regulations
The draft order comes after Republicans in Congress failed to pass a federal ban on state AI regulation, as more lawmakers raise concerns about the technology.
