The Dem representatives say they're staying in El Salvador till they get to meet with Garcia. Well, schedule votes while they're away.

I live near this event (The April 19th Reenactment of the encounter between Colonials and the British at the Old North Bridge) but had only gone to it once before many years ago, and it was rainy with no visibility of the event due to crowd size. I determined it wasn't worth going to again until this anniversary. I thought this would be something I should go to. In 1976, the 200 Year Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, I had no opportunity to see any of it because I was an E2 Airman Apprentice doing Scullery Duty in the...

New Rule: The Not-Working Class | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)The latest leftist argument against Trump's efforts to bring jobs back are that Americans, especially Gen-Z, don't want the jobs.There are two problems with this.First, not all Gen-Zrs are deadbeats. As Bill Maher himself pointed out, that is painting with a broad brush. Many would take those jobs.Second, it wasn't only manufacturing jobs that were offshored. Tech jobs were offshored, too. I think it's even more important to get those jobs and our technology back.Maybe I'm missing the point, which was that this was meant to be tongue in...

It's always nice returning to North Idaho from the California Bay Area. It only takes a few minutes to spot some great bumper and window stickers in Idaho! The two below were at the Fred Meyer (aka, Kroger) store. I was shopping for Baby Back Ribs and some good rub and sauce. Baby Back Ribs are on sale for $5.49 / pound! Got two 3.5 pound racks.

Has anyone noticed the MSM is now broadcasting store closings, lay offs, recession, etc. to frighten the sheeple. Meanwhile, legitimate job creation (private sector) is on the rise, prices are dropping! Funny they hid all the recession talk during the installed pedo's regime. Even with two quarters of GDP down.

Judge Boasberg has said he will pursue contempt charges for those who did not follow his unconstitutional verbal order to turn around a planeload of deportees en route to El Salvador. He wrote a long rant basically saying that even unlawful orders have to be obeyed until they are ruled to be unlawful. Here is my open letter to him (only published here but if somebody could help me get it to him I would appreciate the help): An appeals court just issued an order forbidding you from eating, drinking, pooping, peeing, farting, burping, or breathing until you have in...

I have been following Matt for a while but lately it seems to be more Gabbish in it's somewhat more Holohoaxish articles, against taking out the Riff Raff in Gaza, against Trumps Tarrifs and US taking on the gulf obstructionists in Yemen. What's up with that? Thought he was anti commie. What say you. I do like some of the articles he posts. I guess I am looking for something better to compliment here. What say you?

Seems like it has been a few yers since we had American Idol thread. This might be a chance to commiserate how bad this show has gotten.

We have some good tax minds here, so I have a question about the HSA last month rule. I can’t seem to get a good answer, elsewhere, so YES, this is a vanity. A relative had an HSA 2023 and most of last year. The relative got a new job last year that had normal health insurance and no HSA. On the tax program being used, the question brings up “2023 contributions eligible due to last-month rule.” How is this determined? What does 2023 have to do with anything, when that tax year was on their taxes last year? Note...

Three hours since a new article was published. Is this thing on?

This just makes my blood really boil. I have family members who gave their lives for this country and this flag. I have not seen the flag of any other country defaced in public in just this way, only America's. Wearing it on your shoes? Who the hell are the makers of these products? And who the hell are these illegal SOB's who break into our country, steal our Social Security benefits, vote in our elections, drive with no insurance, crowd our hospitals and doctors offices and school rooms, criminalize our neighborhoods, with no consequences for their horrific behavior, and...

So since all the Democrats have been doing is having federal judges keep trying to stall and delay Trump, I have q question here: We know at least some Federal judges are on Trump's side, so why not use the tactic of every time an anti-Trump judge says blah blah blah, any one of the pro-Trump judges can simply say "Well, the ruling of that judge is wrong and Trump is actually allowed to do this and that" and then all the White House has to do is just simply side with the Judge on their team. Simply put, you...

So what's up with the "HUGE TESLA ARRESTS" that she spoke about yesterday, stating that we would see them in the next 24 hours. As for me, I am growing weary with her empty bravado and empty promises. She is making herself look bad.

Masks.

In Alice Springs in 1989, an Englishwoman seeing Australian Rules football for the first time on television said to me, “There are no rules.” I said to her “You cannot understand Australia without understanding this game.” But I couldn’t explain why. I still can’t. It’s something to do with freedom. Freepers, I need your thoughts.

"Socialism Beats Fascism" is their slogan

My daughter and I like to travel. We live in Spokane, WA, and are interested in in American history. Thinking about Savanna Georgia, But maybe some other place . I love New Orleans, where my grandmother lived but daughter does not think that's safe now

I am tired of seeing this guy's posts on any subject he can post to smear Jews. His handle is "Jack". Anyone else see his virulent drivel?
