  1. facts https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna51639807
  2. i rarely watch Fox but I bet they did. Well isn't that convenient? https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5630177-caribbean-boat-strikes-controversy/
  3. This seems a good plan. The devil is in the details tho. https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-retirement-program-australia-trust-11144894
  4. I'm defending the constitution and the rule of law. It wasn't that long ago that these were republican slogans. As for Obama, the legal questions are similar. I guess less were appalled because it involved known military terrorist groups in Yemen, Pakistan and Somalia. I think most people felt they were a true threat to the country.
  5. hmmm... https://thehill.com/policy/defense/5631738-us-military-strikes-drug-boat/
  6. oil https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/how-a-win-in-venezuela-could-be-great-news-for-trump/ar-AA1Rk8Qa
  7. I had offers from two pharma companies right out of undergrad. Would probably have gone with Lily.
  8. i think no lawyers = no legal justification. You? It's a shocker but trump defied the constitution.
  9. good post. but I don't believe tariffs are going to fix anything. In fact, they may be illegal. SCOTUS still considering.
  10. similar story but a few years earlier. my starter home was 80k in rural MI. my wife loved a mid century modern that was 120k but we couldn't afford it. Those houses are worth multiples of that now. I was about 100k in debt from school. Paid it off as fast as possible. But if I were to do it all over again, in this economy, I'd likely choose a different path. Many are.
  11. no, it's not. even the poverty level numbers aren't 40% and poverty level is determined by family size which is not broken down for this statistic. Foreign born does not equal non citizen. if it did, Melania and her family would not be citizens. And I'm pretty sure W. Va and Mississipi have plenty of first and second gen immigrants. So all 1st gen citizens are not really citizens? Do tell. I'm not against providing gov't support to citizens needing it but it appears the Somalis are economically progressing faster than many citizen groups starting in poverty. Good for them. And I never mentioned race. Mississipi has a large black population many of whom have been here for many generations, starting as slaves.
  12. most of them are citizens, same as you and me and people in West Va or Mississippi. How many in those states make less than 35k? Many more than 40% of the small population of somalis btw, where does the 40% number come from? it's not in the compass data.
  13. knives out. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/ar-AA1REXql The Pentagon, facing questions about its legal basis for attacking civilian vessels, sent no lawyers to the meeting — a move multiple lawmakers in the room considered inexplicable. The Defense Department officials who did attend, those people said, were unable to explain the mission’s strategy and scope — even as President Donald Trump openly mused about expanding the campaign to include land targets inside Venezuela.
  14. from your "link" https://www.mncompass.org/topics/demographics/immigration/somali-immigrants the median household income of somalis in Minn is a bit over $43k. the median household income of the entire state of mississippi is $45k with several red states having similar numbers. Maybe we should deport everyone in those states? btw, meeting the income levels for assistance does not equal assistance.
  15. do your own "research" and get back to me.
