  2. Well at least you're on top of things. I think you search out my posts to respond. That's hilarious.
  3. No I just don't go into every hyperlink in an article.
  4. Which I didn't find the need to so I wasn't commenting on or posting the view's article.
  5. Again not comparable. Hillary did it too and it cost her the election in 2016.
  6. There is nothing about the view in the first link.....the one I quoted. Its just what news sites do to get people to more of their content. Jesus the stupid is really strong today. https://www.salon.com/2024/04/22/a-harbinger-of-whats-to-come-new-poll-shows-rfk-jrs-campaign-could-sink/
  7. main·ly /ˈmānlē/ adverb more than anything else. "he is mainly concerned with fiction" for the most part. Not even a comparison who goes after who's supporters more.
  8. The findings do contradict the results of other national polls that show a bigger third-party vote would hurt Biden more than Trump.
  9. Difference is Trump mainly goes after and insults Biden. Biden insults Trumps voters. Big, big difference.
  10. Ah yes you're from the just do something crowd no matter how shitty the bill is. Expulsion authority trigger The key provision of the bill would allow the president to expel immigrants regardless of the viability of their legal rights to remain in the United States if average daily encounters at the southwest border hit 4,000 in a week (about 120,000 in a month) or 8,500 in any single day. This includes people who apply to enter legally at ports of entry. Since March 2021, the daily average for a month has always exceeded 4,000. Expulsions would be mandatory if the daily average for a week exceeded 5,000, or 8,500 in a single day, and expulsions would have to continue until the rate declined for two weeks to a daily average of less than 3,000 (a pace of 90,000 for a month) if the 4,000 threshold was used or 3,750 (112,500 for a month) if the 5,000 threshold was used. Under this provision, expulsions would have been mandatory almost continuously since March 2021.
  11. Dude I fucking listened to him when the bill was introduced. He wasn't being completely honest about the entire bill. The $118 billion (money we don't have) tied to foreign aide was a non-starter for me to begin with. Don't you claim to be the deficit hawk on here.
  12. Because it gave them billions more to grow....every govt agency loves that. I read up on the legislation dude. It was a shit sandwich. Lets not forget it was also tied to $118 billion in foreign aide spending. Money we don't have. https://scalise.house.gov/press-releases/House-Republican-Leadership-Statement-on-Senate-Immigration-Bill#:~:text=“Among its many flaws%2C the,to include critical asylum reforms. “House Republicans oppose the Senate immigration bill because it fails in every policy area needed to secure our border and would actually incentivize more illegal immigration. “Among its many flaws, the bill expands work authorizations for illegal aliens while failing to include critical asylum reforms. Even worse, its language allowing illegals to be ‘released from physical custody’ would effectively endorse the Biden ‘catch and release’ policy. “The so-called ‘shutdown’ authority in the bill is anything but, riddled with loopholes that grant far too much discretionary authority to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas – who has proven he will exploit every measure possible, in defiance of the law, to keep the border open. “The bill also fails to adequately stop the President’s abuse of parole authority and provides for taxpayer funds to fly and house illegal immigrants in hotels through the FEMA Shelter and Services Program. “Because President Biden has refused to utilize his broad executive authority to end the border catastrophe that he has created, the House led nine months ago with the passage of the Secure the Border Act (H.R. 2). That bill contains the necessary components to actually stem the flow of illegals and end the present crisis. The Senate must take it up immediately. “America’s sovereignty is at stake. “Any consideration of this Senate bill in its current form is a waste of time. It is DEAD on arrival in the House. We encourage the U.S. Senate to reject it.”
  13. Because it was an absolute shit piece of legislation and no controls put in place until over 5000 crossed in a single day. You can make whatever claim you want about who stopped it but it doesn't change the fact that it was bad legislation no matter who came up with it. There is plenty of existing laws and executive authority that can solve or tremendously help the border crisis. They just need to be fucking enforced.
  14. His bias blinds him. https://www.newsnationnow.com/us-news/immigration/border-officials-fake-missing-documents-hard-identify-migrants/ “The problem, though, is that we’re basically taking people’s word for it — that they are who they say they are, they’re from whatever country they’re from, when they say they don’t have any criminal history,” Jon Anfinsen, vice president of the Border Patrol Council, said. “Hopefully, they’re telling the truth. But we have no real way of knowing that.”
  15. And plenty ending right back in the pockets of our politicians.
  16. If they know who...... You don't actually believe we know who do you? You can't be that foolish. There are also the get aways. I seen plenty of news stories that show how they dump their id's before crossing. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/may/08/us-mexico-border-agents-belongings You've had quite the flip this..... sad what the liberalism disease has done to your brain.
  17. Sorry but agreeing to 5000 illegals per day is not "getting things done." Sick and tired of politicians and idiots on here thinking something is better than nothing. Fuck that. Bipartisanship has contributed to us being $33+ trillion debt.
  18. With this $60 billion the American taxpayer has basically now given over $4500 to every single person in that country in the past 2 years. Fucking insane and that's just the start of it. As of October 2023, the United States has given Israel more than $318 billion in foreign aid since the end of World War II, including $260 billion in military and economic aid, and over $10 billion in missile defense system contributions. This is the most aid given to any country during that time frame, and around $100 billion more than Egypt, the second-highest recipient.
  19. A GOP congressman was on yesterday pushing for war funding because it would be good for American jobs because the weapons are made here. If borrowed money spent in the US was good for the economy we wouldn't be $33+ trillion in fucking debt because it would have created more tax revenue than it cost. In fact every single country in the world could just deficit spend to prosperity. Absolutely shameful the idea that people dying in war is good for our workers.
  20. Not really accurate and to claim it didn't have any impact on the election is absolutely laughable. CIA approved the letter so they were complicit. Likely any former Intell officer had to have theirs sign off as well. https://nypost.com/2023/05/09/cia-fast-tracked-letter-that-falsely-suggested-hunter-biden-laptop-was-russia-op/ The CIA conspired with former acting director Mike Morell and the Biden campaign to produce a letter falsely claiming that emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop were Russian disinformation — and solicited signatures from at least one former intelligence official, a staff report from the House Judiciary Committee is expected to reveal Wednesday. Morell told the CIA’s Prepublication Classification Review Board (PCRB) that he needed the letter approved as an unusual “rush job” that day, October 19, 2020, in an effort to provide then-candidate Joe Biden ammunition in the final presidential debate to discredit The Post’s report on the Biden emails which had been published five days earlier. That day, a CIA employee working for the PCRB solicited a signature for Morell’s letter from former CIA analyst David Cariens, according to a written statement by Cariens to the Subcommittees on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, and Intelligence. Cariens explained that he had been speaking with the PCRB about the prepublication review of his own memoir and during that phone call the CIA employee “asked” him if he would sign the draft letter.
  21. Come on dude they or people tied to thme was saying "it looks like Russian disinformation" when the absolutely knew it wasn't. One former CIA director admitted this was done to help Biden. He was the one who wrote the letter they all signed.
