    You don’t even seem to understand basic numbers anymore.

    No, dude - 32% of the voting population is not an overwhelming mandate. It’s lower than the 34% that Biden received in 2020. It’s just typical, like most other presidents. But 20% is very low - that’s where it is now, give or take a few percent.

    “Skinny budget” was just released. 22% cut across all non defense discretionary. But defense including homeland security gets a 13% increase.

    The EPA and National Science Foundation would have 55% cuts. SBA 33% cut. DOI 31% and DOL 35% cuts. DHHS 26% cut.

    Republican wet dream. A $1T annual defense budget and everything else gone.

    Those 3 days for the best jobs and the biggest paychecks, and the brightest economic future have turned into a hundred and it's only going to get worse.

    He must have only been speaking about himself, Musk, and the tech and oil billionaires.

    Went down a rabbit hole to figure this guy out because my first reaction was ‘that’s some solid Boomering’

    That’s Polakis. He’s a doctor and the deputy minister of health. He was also born in 1965 but I’ve never thought that 65 was a legit start date for Gen-X; in my experience talking to thousands of generational cohorts it’s more like 68 or 69 through 82 or 83. So I’m going to stick with my Boomer tag for this guy, because he exudes that ‘**** everything but me’ vibe that most Boomers are known for.

    Greece also has the second highest rate of smoking in the EU at 36%, just behind Bulgaria.

    2 more suckers added to the list

    Two people who voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 election have since said they "feel betrayed" by the president after their son was detained in Georgia.

    Argentine American couple Martin Verdi and Debora Rey told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution they felt let down by the administration after their son, Agustin Gentile, 31, a green card holder, was sent to Stewart Detention Center in South Georgia. With roughly 1,700 detainees, the center is the country's second-largest immigrant jail.

    Gentile, a father of two, was stopped by officials in February after returning from a trip abroad and landing at Los Angeles International Airport. DHS officials confiscated his green card and Argentine passport and directed him to report to a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) office in Raleigh, North Carolina, where he lives. Officials there detained him and sent him to a local county jail. He was then transferred to Stewart Detention Center.

    Gentile was convicted in 2020 of infliction of injury and sentenced to three years' probation, according to court records seen by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The case was closed in 2023.

    He moved with his family from Argentina to the U.S. in the 1990s as a toddler.

    Debora Rey told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: "[Trump] didn't say he was going to do this, that he was going to go after people who have been here for a long time. He said he was going to go after all the criminals who came illegally.

    "We feel betrayed, tricked. This is craziness."

    "This was a massive deception what he did. Because the other side had shown us how indulgent they were (with immigration)."
