Basically bunch of really rich people wanting to sue a bunch of not so rich people because they wouldn't sell them their property to build their own super city in California. Sued saying they colluded on pricing. How can you collude on pricing if your not organizations.
Just thank liberal Justices for the Kelo v City of New London decision for this bullshit.

Honestly 5% is way too much....especially for the US. Once our economy reaches $30T that means we would need to spend $1.5T.

I think its refreshing when a POTUS calls out both allies and enemies. Especially when it comes without all the political correctness measured bullshit we normally hear. This I definitely voted for.

Head to the boat on the 2nd or 3rd and stay until Sunday morning. The city our marina is in has an airshow and kick ass fireworks show on the riverfront on the 3rd where our docks have a perfect view of both. Last year with my mom passing was the first we missed since 1997. This event is a pretty big deal for us as we have a lot of friends and family around.

2 hours ago, Crnr2Crnr said: well then why not...
you'd think with all the accusations bantered about over the years here and elsewhere that it would make the Dems look bad, right?
One thing people forget is that US law enforcement has no jurisdiction on where most of the crimes likely were committed. Not sure what they really can and can't "release."
DOJ says so and so was at the Island or on the tapes might have serious legal repercussions for them. I'm not defending anyone just saying its not as simple as it would appear.
What we need here is a Snowden or Assange.

4 minutes ago, XCR1250 said: Individuals named in the documents are not necessarily accused of wrongdoing and Trump has not been linked to any offenses committed by Epstein or Maxwell.
Epstein's former pilot, Lawrence Visoski Jr, testified in 2021 that Trump, along with other powerful men, flew aboard Epstein's private plane on various occasions.
Visoski testified that he never saw evidence of sexual activity or sexual acts with underage girls on the flights.
Who Flew on Jeffrey Epstein's 'Lolita Express' Plane?
Donald J. Trump
Bill Clinton
Kevin Spacey
Chris Tucker
Bill Gates
Prince Andrew
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Violinist Itzhak Perlman
U.S. Sen. John Glenn
Former Senate majority leader George Mitchell
All names have been reported in Associated Press and CNN.
In the early 90's long before anything was known about Epstein.
PEOPLE reviewed the flight logs and found Trump's name a total of seven times. He was mentioned on page 24 of the first flight log, dated Oct. 11, 1993. He was also mentioned twice on page 27, along with his then-wife Marla Maples, their daughter Tiffany Trump and a nanny on May 15, 1994. All three of those dates had "JE" (Jeff Epstein) listed on the same flights as Trump. GM, possibly Ghislane Maxwell, was listed as a passenger on the October 1993 flight.

What is most amazing is the idiots on here won't actually pay attention to the evidence we have on here and just bring it back up like its going to make a difference or just to make themselves think they are important.
Trump thru Epstein out of Mar A Lago
Epstein said he had no dirt on Trump
Victim lawyers said Trump even offered to help....literally the only one with any ties to Epstein that did.
If there was dirt on Trump it would have gotten out long ago no matter who else it burned.
Attorney Brad Edwards, who represented 70 victims of Jeffrey Epstein, has said that Donald Trump offered to help him when he was pursuing information about Epstein in 2009. Edwards reported that Trump was the only person who responded to his inquiries, willing to speak and provide information that proved helpful in the investigation.

2 hours ago, Crnr2Crnr said: Trump, who faced no major international crisis in his first term, is now embroiled in one just six months into his second.
Even if he hopes U.S. military involvement can be limited in time and scope, the history of such conflicts often carries unintended consequences for American presidents.
Trump’s slogan of “peace through strength” will certainly be tested as never before, especially with his opening of a new military front after failing to meet his campaign promises to quickly end wars in Ukraine and Gaza.
“Trump is back in the war business,” said Richard Gowan, U.N. director at the International Crisis Group. “I am not sure anyone in Moscow, Tehran or Beijing ever believed his spiel that he is a peacemaker. It always looked more like a campaign phrase than a strategy."
Honestly I think you/they are making this out to be a lot more than it is compared to the military attacks of other Presidents. He hit 3 sites. He didn't go after leadership, or even other military targets. Let's not get carried away here. -
23 minutes ago, Crnr2Crnr said: didn't you see how upset they were in the signal group chat last night about it?
hoping is a real solid strategy...
I really don't think the possibility of it was part of the decision making process at all. Happens fine but not part of the objective an any way shape or form.

1 minute ago, Deephaven said: When 90% of the board does it all that is left is to agree with the sentiment. I did that a ton. Glad to pick on both sides as they both suck at doing what we need.
Sucks that the UN is so fucking impotent. They've been saying for some time Iran cannot have nuclear weapons yet says it should come thru negotiations.
We need to pull out from that failed organization immediately.
Gif for the Bold.

ya know what I watched when I got home from the cottage last night to relax instead of the news?
Charlie Wilson's War
I can't because you never posted anything negative. You were too caught up in hating Trump even when Biden was in office.
Solid flick....especially Emily Blunt in the white bra and panties.

11 minutes ago, Crnr2Crnr said: correct
Again you had no issue with the previous admin doing it.
Honestly I'd consider giving someone weapons to kill our soldiers and act of war as well. More than $100 billion to Ukraine to kill Russians. Different story when you sell them.
We know Iran has done this and even attacked our bases....yes after we killed some of their people but they were not in Iran.

On 6/22/2025 at 9:50 AM, Deephaven said: Just a few promises:
End U.S. involvement in foreign wars.
Stop acting as the “world’s policeman.”
Avoid new military conflicts unless the U.S. was directly attacked.
Stop racing to topple foreign regimes that we know nothing about, that we shouldn’t be involved with.
You know my position on this topic however I don't recall you posting anything on Biden's broken promises like a cure for cancer.

Every single President since FDR took military action without a congressional declaration of war and none has ever to be found unconstitutional. People should STFU about this one being beyond his authority. FFS Obama targeted and killed an American citizen (and his teenage son) abroad with a missile strike.

Just now, Deephaven said: And he has failed miserably on the second one.
So if another country bombs one of our military facilities like LANL or LLNL we wouldn't consider it an act of war.
Exactly. And the war we just started will now go own for multiple decades. We created a ton of enragement. You have to be truly devoted and devoid of any comprehension to see that differently.
Did you think this way when we were sending billions of dollars in weapons to Ukraine to kill Russians? Its really not that different as Russia felt completely justified in their going into Ukraine.

I agree it might be time to close up some of our foreign bases and bring our men home. They have been nothing but targets of Iran and Iranian backed terror groups for decades. And yes , may be even more so now but we have been losing lives for years being there.
8 minutes ago, ViperGTS/Z1 said: Israel has terrific intelligence. I'm sure they know exactly where those trucks went and will be dealing with them accordingly. We will not be involved with that end of it I'm sure.
Bombing someone is an act of war. If any country hit 3 of our most important nuclear sites I'd expect congress to declare war in a matter of hours. It doesn't matter how WE look at it only how they do. This is no different than how Russia seen NATO advancement east. NATO is like we are just a defensive organization who is putting missiles and weapons......all over your border.
Better hope.

no guns, no planes, no bombs...
in Current Events
I don't believe it is yet but would be. I don't really fear the "401K scenario" because there are backup systems in place to show what value is there prior to an attack. Its not like the account had actual cash or stock certificates in in.
The grid is another thing and would really be an act of war. Cut all electricity out of the US or many other countries and more than half the population is dead in 6-12 months.
