When China invades Taiwan in 4 years all you libertarians are going praising biden as his chips onshoring will save us from ww3. Biden said ukraine is a war of choice because they don't have anything we can't live without. 95% of our chips under 3nm come from Taiwan. We have to go to war with China even if you don't agree with it. What you brainwashed libertarians don't understand is that you need a powerful government to onshore critical industries like raw minerals and chips. Biden passing the chips act and onshoring critical minerals from China is what's going save us from going to war with China. Whether you like biden or not he's saving your ass right now. This whole notion of small government is such utter bs. If you dont have a powerful government you'll have morons like musk and Zuckerberg ruling over us. Either we have a strong government whom we the people have power over or we have monopolies ruling our country which is happening right now. We have more consolidation across the board then ever before which kills consumer choice. Libertarians are so effin clueless. This is why our entire economy is rigged right now. We just saw the railroads refusing to give workers paid sick leave because they knew they could cripple the economy with closing down one day. We HAVE to go to war with monopolies which are destroying America
Having a brother in law and a brother that are both ex military and both work in intelligence and knowing what they tell me when they are drunk… yeah I do trust that they know and track people who are terrorist linked from the Middle East that cross through neighboring countries. I feel pretty confident about that. Do I feel confident that a 40 year old woman and her child from Honduras will be caught that cross the border to go work as a maid for cash scrubbing the sh$t stains from your toilet in the Woodlands??? No. We won’t catch all of those “ILLEGALS”
Allowing corporations to run freely is how our entire economy is rigged. Parents being charged to sit with their kids, folks paying hundreds to cancel their cable bill, phone carriers locking in poor folks long term with high fees, credit card companies charging exuberant late fees. I can give you a million examples how were getting fleeced. The entire economy is rigged towards corporations maxing out their bottom line while locking in workers with bs contracts like non competes and union busting. Corporate America is the true enemy between gop and democrats but we'll never see through it. We'll fight each other while Corporate America laughs all the way. Having a powerful regulatory system to Crack down on corporations is what is needed. Only the government can Crack down on corporate America. Not individuals. The idea that we allow corporate America free reign is such bs which leads to folks like musk and Zuckerberg playing God.
I'm glad you think that having 536 people in charge is better than the free choice of all people to patronize or not whatever business they want. I disagree with you. Also, if we told chip manufacturers that we were not going to defend Taiwan from China, they would move away from Taiwan of their own accord, because they still want to be able to make money and sell chips to the United States and people and businesses therein. You are concerned about corporations having too much power, because they can charge people that choose to do business with them a $50 late fee for services they actually receive if the people don't pay them on time, but see no problem with the government (who you are forced to do "business" with), charging someone 35% of their income every month to pay mostly for benefits for other people. No, the corporations are not the ones screwing me.
Good thing it has already passed. It doesn't matter if he is President in 4 years or not. Reading comprehension is not your strong suit is it?
I can bet you any sum of $$ that 24 will be trump v biden and biden will win with same margins plus NC. Trump is not electable on a national stage. Biden is onshoring manufacturing at record pace and will have a good campaign message. He's doing concrete things to help millions. His non compete ban personally will help bunch of republican doctors I know in Indiana and they're thankful as hell of biden. I've always said this but biden has a big soft disapproval. People may not like him or are excited by him but he's not hostile and people will always vote for the boring trusted candidate. People need to research Regan and how media had written him off but his trustworthy and empathy won over voters. Biden is killing hundreds of thousands of tech jobs while onshoring hundreds of thousands of manufacturering union jobs to red America. He's doing what trump brainwashed you folks into thinking he was doing.
So no willingness to put your money behind that. I took the bet even though I'm not so certain he won't be.
Biden was smart to take a weekend beach trip to Rehoboth before the feds moved in. His lawyers are improving. Nothing classified found.
It's totally not like trump gop puppets are becoming leaders of state wide parties across the nation is it LOL. It's funny how Republicans on this board pretend that their base cares about winning and how they'll see through trump. You folks feed and brainwash your base non stop with lies then expect them to see it. Like I've said I will bet any member on this board thst trump will be the nominee and it won't be close. When trump gets indicted the entire base will corral around him and it'll be him versus the deep state. I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is cuz it's so damn obvious. The gop base doesn't care about governoring or anything real. It's all fake bs culture wars It's hilarious watching them pretend they can contain trump or beat him. Everybody in the party knows he can't win a general election but have no plan on stopping him. He's going on radio bashing DeSantis while nobody is bashing him. They're all scared of him like kids. They won't do **** to trump Trump has a direct line to mccarthy which means he can run any investigation he wants. They're doing a hunter biden election next week which trump can claim the election was stolen from him. He has the base wrapped around his thumb and anyone who can't see it is effin blind Yet the senile buffoon has passed more historic legislation then all the failed Republicans combined in history. You morons do know no matter how much you call biden words the legislation he's passed will effect you forever right? You low iq Maga need to do research on civics.
Another key member of his staff quitting. Nobody wants to be associated with this senile buffoon except trash like Kamala Harris
I don't know anything about their ambassador. But, I'd point out that ambassadors represent their governments to other governments. Duterte was hostile to the US. Bongbong is more pro-US. That'll reflect in the work and messaging of the ambassador. Did he get state charges also for battery? Regardless of federal case, it looks like there isn't any dispute he assaulted someone. When they told me I'd have to pay more to sit next to my toddlers on the plane, I said I'd have a much calmer flight sitting someplace else anyway. Lady changed her tune and I ended up having to sit next to those brats afterall!
I had to sit next to someone else's kid on my flight to NZ and they didn't even charge me extra. That kid has the superpower of knowing when I was just getting ready to fall asleep and then kick or nudge me. 15 hours of sheet fun....
The point is the airlines have rigged the industry by implementing fake fees while profits are through the roof. The DOT has rule making authority to cut excessive fees and promote fair competition. This is happening in every industry throughout our economy. Extra fees from phone bills to cable bills to internet are being rigged to help boost profits for corporations. Bidens regulators are cracking down more than we've ever seen in our lifetime. Corporate America is our common enemy The democratic base likes to win and grades it more important than the candidate. This is why bernie got his ass whopped in 2020 even after 4 years of fundraising and grassroots. He got 30% LESS votes in 2020 because we knew he couldn't win. He's a fraud. Difference is the gop base doesn't care about winning and 70% of Republicans think trump won 2020 election and it was rigged. Why the hell wouldn't trump win its funny watching Republicans cope. Trump will be the nominee and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
Put up some money where your mouth is. I'll bet you 100 bucks to the tipjar or in real life that trump WILL be the nominee and it won't be close. He'll have it locked up by super Tuesday.
