  1. This is a common theme among the lefty posters here. It is not true. (but it helps THEM feel better about their unpopular stances) .
  2. It sure does 'escape' you. I will explain. Slowly for you. Pete is not a very bright guy ( a common trait on the Left) While off on his leave, he did not even know what was going on. Just as when he was Transportation Secretary. That was the joke. NOT that he is gay. * I am sorry but I probably won't have time to explain every simple Bee post to you. .
  3. No. I know that you are more intelligent than most here Doc B., you know what that phrase really refers to.
  4. Hahahahahaha You are going to look mighty foolish come tomorrow evening. (Do I mean stocks will recover, no, but this nonsense about him being beholden to 'billionaires, is right out of the lemmings handbook)
  5. TARIFFS: Liberation Day Puts Main Street Ahead of Wall Street: Trump’s tariffs make his commitment to America’s forgotten men and women clear. By Batya Ungar-Sargon Ever since Donald Trump’s first term as president, his detractors in the Democratic Party and their spokespeople in the mainstream liberal media have had a recurring refrain: his single achievement in office was a tax cut for him and his rich buddies. It was always nonsense, erasing the significant tax cuts middle- and working-class Americans got, as well as his achievements controlling the southern border, imposing tariffs on China to force supply chains elsewhere, and, more generally, shrinking the income gap for the first time in 60 years. But let Liberation Day—Trump’s moniker for April 2, the day he imposed across-the-board reciprocal and global tariffs—put to bed the myth that Trump is beholden to the rich. President Trump has outraged the elites of the international global economic order by ending the globalization-promoted fleecing of the American working class with mass tariffs. Lost amid that outrage is one of the more startling aspects of the change: doing so meant dismissing the importance of quarterly earnings reports and dividends of his “rich buddies” to reorder the global trade system toward ordinary Americans instead. For decades, our economy has fostered an upward transfer of wealth from the working class to the asset rich. What Trump is trying to do with his tariffs is simple: reverse that trend. What is so frustrating about the conversation around tariffs is that most people agree on the problem: the deindustrialization of America led to the downward mobility of the American working class, deaths of despair, and an economy where people working multiple jobs still couldn’t afford the American Dream. Yet when a president has the guts to use a tool at his disposal—once a common feature of American policy—to reverse this trend, it’s wall-to-wall criticism from the free trade extremist Right and, well, the now free trade extremist Left. https://commonplace.org/2025/04/04/liberation-day-puts-main-street-ahead-of-wall-street/
  6. Back to the Liberal Protests Topic:
  7. Well, it was about gender inequality in sports, not Frisbee golf, but you knew that. I wonder what the usuals here will say when the economy inevitably rebounds.
  8. IT'S ON. "weaponization of our intelligence community."
  9. Don’t buy into the race war guys. His dad’s right. It’s about culture, not about race
  10. Meanwhile: Professor flees Yale, U.S. for Canada due to ‘rise in fascism’ https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-flees-yale-u-s-for-canada-due-to-rise-in-fascism/ .
  11. You went off the rails, right at the start.
