  1. We did not do this in Afghanistan when that country aided and fostered Al Qaeda. We had every right to invade that country and bring war, as the Israelis have that right in this instance, BUT. What the Israelis are doing to innocent people in Gaza is wrong. It is shameful and wrong.
  2. Good point and I agree…somewhat…Donald is only really “in” on the “sure thing” and coincidentally his hedging on all issues has left him with very few “sure things”…we’re either in for nothing or everything. I feel like he’ll do nothing and the world will move farther to the abyss…TACO
  3. So now, absent US leadership, everyone (Putin, Zelensky, Netanyahu, now Iran) is just doing whatever they want. Either we've "pulled back from the world stage" or nobody respects the Orange TACO truck? Which is it? If Iranian missiles start getting through and US bases and/or US Navy assets start getting attacked and something finds a hole, it's a whole new world. Meanwhile, Chinese chess pieces keep slowly falling into place. When they make a move, it won't be a mistake and it won't be little.
  4. Six times in history...now 7. https://www.military.com/military-life/6-times-military-was-used-suppress-civilian-uprisings-us.html
  5. My crazies, your crazies, their crazies…ahhhh pronoun games. I’m not going to explain the obvious to you. But, try this little exercise and ask yourself…”What possible interest could the world’s richest man have in the US government saving money and being more efficient?” If you come up with an altruistic motive as an answer, try again. If you just can’t get it, be patient and watch the next couple of years. Good luck buddy👍
  6. R u for real with that statement? You actually think Elon Musk cares? He’s a shrewd businessman…he’s playing both sides right now. He got his foot in the door and siphoned all the info he needed to give his business an edge while making himself and his liberal, electric vehicles look appealing to MAGA since they were “soooo unfairly attacked” by the liberal hate machine…blah, blah, blah…now he can re-center himself in the public eye and distance himself from Donald because he has what he wanted and by the time anyone realizes the “access” he has provided himself and confronts it, IT WON’T MATTER. Well played Elon You still have them thinking you care about the US deficit for some f-in reason!
  7. Radio…say it with me now…raaayyyyddeeeeooooo…it’s rural Alaska, islands, remote…cool to get a paper from a couple weeks ago to start a fire with. Is any of this registering with you? Working people in rural America, the elderly… Not everyone watches Fox News at the country club champ.
  8. Welp, yer either too dumb or too arrogant to understand the link that I spoon fed to you. Go back to ktoo and look at the local pieces and find some commensurate reporting. I’ll be waiting. You want to be “shocked” and “maddened” all the time. Try looking at an issue and absorbing information to understand it and quit being so elitist. (I can give you some pointers there but you’ll need to pay attention) F—k, MAGA wins an election and suddenly they’re better than everyone. Rural America counts too bud.
  9. Well, if you read the article linked from Yahoo it clearly states that Germany will allow them back into the country because they are citizens but they apparently will not have free passage to other EU nations. So, the first part of what you said is null and void. There's no mention of the third. As far as the rest of what you said I guess I don't have nearly enough info. to make any clear conclusions since I don't know whether or not these people have committed any crimes or exactly what the intelligence briefings say about these people. I don't generally just take a random X accounts "word for it" that these people are victims. There might be more to this story or there might not be. I will admit, freezing a bank account is a serious sanction. We do it all the time in the country to bad actors who are perpetrating crimes or are under investigation in this country. We even do it to our own citizens when there is a pending case and a judge is convinced that there are grounds to do it. That might be the case here. Apparently, the EU has the ability to freeze assets and funds based on some legal body. I'm not sure if Germany can freeze the assets of its own citizens in their country, but, it looks like the EU can do it although it's tough to find a detailed news piece about this. ...and now you want to talk about Israel...okey dokey
  10. Correct and the standard for free speech is that you're not charged with a crime and thrown in jail because your speech is being held against you. Freedom of speech does not mean "freedom from consequences". It is well within the sovereign rights of a country or a business owner to act upon what is being said.
  11. Aren't you big on sovereign borders? The EU clearly has its reasons, neither you or I are privy to its intelligence briefing on these people. We currently have all sorts of entry standards and some of those area clearly a direct reflection of the politics of the executive branch of our government. Are you saying that we should have the right of denial but other EU countries should not?
  12. Yeah Dan, it's like real work. If you don't do it well, Americans die.
  13. Who? Like the people that ask TACO questions? Who is "they"?
  14. They can be sued for libel and slander for sure.
