  1. Some come into the country and detained then and immigration official not a judicial judge can reject their admittance and immediately deported. Supposedly how Obama was called the deporter in chief. Generally I think this was the process no matter where they are caught in the country as long as it could be proven they've been here less than two years. Now I'm no legal scholar but I really don't see how a location or timeline should matter unless there is actually legislation saying such? If caught entering illegally or even through a port of entry we must have a reasonable and timely method to allow or deport. I'm pretty sure the SC has even agreed with this method but again I think the 2 yr timeframe is bullshit. This is called expedited removal and it was expanded under the Biden admin in a last ditch effort to try and look as if they were doing something on immigration before the election. Basically we have judges now challenging this long implemented rule because Trump is in office. Never did it under Obama or Biden. Expedited removal is a procedure that allows U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials to rapidly deport noncitizens who are undocumented or who have committed misrepresentation or fraud. Under expedited removal processes, certain noncitizens are deported in as little as a single day without an immigration court hearing or other appearance before a judge. https://immigrationforum.org/article/expanded-expedited-removal-what-it-means-and-what-to-do/
  2. Simple proof the left has learned nothing. The only thing we stand for is being against Trump isn't a winning formula.
  3. Well considering what the previous admin did to the country allowing 10 million plus in what choice do we have. Let's keep in mind there already is precedence based on time in the country. Might want to look at how Obama deported so many. An immigration judge or officer is not of the judicial system. They often are treated as a civil violation.
  4. How new of Tahoe? Our Registration taxes are a fucking joke on SUV's all the while farmers drive $75K+ trucks around for about nothing....not to mention the wear and tear on the roads caused by the big Ag equipment. On top of that they pay no state fuel taxes on diesel. All this an most of our roads are gravel. $70K 5500lb Tahoe would be $722 per year in Iowa. FUBAR. Iowa Tax And TagsRegistration Fees by Vehicle Type | Iowa Tax And TagsThe formula is calculated as follows: $0.40 per hundred pounds of vehicle weight, plus Model Years Old Percent of List Price 1 - 7 1.00 8 - 9 0.75 10 - 11 0.50 12 and after $50 Example: Weight: 3,000 pounds, list price: $18,500 3,000/100 X $0.40 = $12 $18,500 X 1% = $185 Annual Fee = $197
  5. Think how much a state or govts collects in taxes on a $500K home before a dime is paid in property taxes. Sales Taxes on materials. Income Taxes on construction company wages. Income Taxes on contractors profits. Income Taxes on the materials companies profits. Income Taxes on the materials companies wages. All the inspections/licenses/permits and what not in some areas.
  6. Unreal.....for what reason would they have? Because the fat bitches on the View called her a Russian agent? https://www.foxnews.com/politics/federal-air-marshals-surveilled-trump-cabinet-member-gabbard-2024-rand-paul-says "These documents confirm our suspicions. Federal air marshals surveilled the now-director of national intelligence during domestic flights in 2024, reporting back information related to her appearance and even how many electronics she was observed using. Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case," he added.
  7. Well considering all the information coming out from even extremely liberal journalists and staffers I'd say where there's smoke there is a bit of fire. Not only that did you watch and listen to the man the past few years? Sorry that debate wasn't because of jet lag or having a cold.
  8. Why did he make adamant denials of the NG EO? Maybe I'm too skeptical but if that's the case you are far too credulous.
  9. Again there is evidence of other actions Joe didn't remember or didn't do. Just because they released a statement doesn't mean he was a part of it. The problem may have been how easy it was to convince mush brain they were doing something.
  10. It wouldn't. In Iowa we pay sales taxes on on construction materials then pay property taxes on the home forever. Imagine bringing home a air fryer and getting a tax bill on it every year. Yes local govts would need to find another revenue source but I don't like it. Double taxation on cars are a joke too. Technically progressive tax rates go against the equal protection clause. Shit I could go on and on.
  11. No doubt.....appraisals in my county are often extremely low made up by the higher per $1000 valuation multiple. Personally I think property taxes should be ruled unconstitutional. Perpetual double taxation on things should not be legal.
  12. The WH released a statement on Hunters Pardon. I got some oceanfront property in Iowa here to sell you if you believe he wrote that. https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/statement-the-presidential-pardon-for-r-hunter-biden
  13. You don't think its possible they did them and convinced him about it after? Not saying that happened but again he denied knowing about other ones. He also went on for a couple years how he wouldn't pardon Hunter. Biden is/was so far gone cognitively anything was possible.
  14. I don't recall personally calling you a liberal because of your viewpoints on Trump. Honestly you are pretty reserved about most topics including political ones. Others may have however. There is a line between being "thin skinned" as you put it and simply defending yourself. Sure there has been some that the media should be critical of Trump but with him it was completely out of hand. The MSM and others took taking things out of context to a new level with him. There are many examples of this including "many fine people on both sides" to protest peacefully and patriotically. As I've stated so many times the level both the Obama admin and others went after him was something unlike anything we've ever seen before. It really was unreal. I mean for years calling him a Russian asset with absolutely zero proof. It doesn't get much worse than that. FFS man they've been comparing him to Hitler for 8 years.
  15. Not really....both can be pertinent. While I'm not sure from a legal standpoint of how to reverse documents or policies signed by a President who had obvious cognitive impairment....I would think there would be something illegal about using the autopen for signing documents they never even discussed with him. For example Biden denied knowing about signing an EO on a natural gas sales ban. https://nypost.com/2025/01/18/us-news/president-biden-insisted-he-didnt-sign-executive-order-just-weeks-after-doing-so-speaker-mike-johnson/
  16. Come on man....we aren't just talking about on here. How Trump was treated was 1000x's worse than anything we've ever seen in American politics. They also used the DOJ against him which is obvious Obama and Biden knew about at the time. They didn't just try and defeat him they tried to ruin him and put him in prison for life.
  17. Yep they didn't say shit when Trump was being treated the way he was. Now he calls for an investigation and the world is coming to an end. Priceless.
  18. With how much vacation homes drives up the cost of real estate it probably evens out some.
  19. Not uncommon. It’s been reported that refineries are in the process of changing from winter to summer blends that’s caused a delay and created lines to get gas. “It’s just a lack of certain types of gas from certain types of pipelines, it’s really what it comes down to,” driver Charles Deford said.
  20. No shit from the lawfare to the bullshit impeachments. For Christ sake Hillary paid for a dossier that claimed Trump had Russian hookers piss on the bed because Obama stayed in the room and our own FBI used it to investigate the campaign when they knew it was bullshit. Nothing will ever compare to that. FFS they tried to put him in prison for the rest of his life over a business document THAT THE BANK AGREED TO AND WAS PAID BACK IN FULL. But...but...but Trump should be bigger than that now. GMAFB. The one symptom of TDS nobody talks about is the ignorance and or disregard of how he was treated for 9 years before now.
  21. Simple you can't pay for endorsements and Beyonce didn't perform yet was supposedly paid.
  22. Not to mention the hundreds of billions of dollars both the Obama and Biden admin's released to Iran.
  23. I can see all "vacation" area's where 2nd homes are popular would have issues. If homes sit vacant for significant portions of the year then communities are without revenue to the business' which then lower state/local tax revenue. Not sure what the solution is as this also drives up housing costs.
  24. The Prostate cancer whether it was there or not when he was President was the least of American's concerns. A President unable to do rudimentary Presidential duties because of known significant cognitive decline was.
  25. Scary part is if the drugs had worked and he performed even decently at the debates they would have put him up again. Imagine without cancer what his mind would have been in a year or two much less the last year in his term. Crooks.....all of them.
