I think we need major, major welfare reform and make these useless critters work the fields , fast food jobs and construction.

d to 30 years of globalist policies that nearly destroyed this country

I have heard stories from Muslims that humanism and democracy have destroyed Islam. This looks like same shit of blaming changing environment and adjustment vs staying in the same status quo. This country needs to adapt like everyone else and not just stand still or else it will be left behind.

It is very tempting to look at the golden period and do the same things over and over and hope that by doing so we can get back to the golden period.

If I understand your point correctly: That we must adapt to changes or risk falling behind....I'm not certain that's the issue. Many things have changed, yet in the manner of governing people there is nothing new under the sun. History is replete with example. The battle is (as has been throughout human history) which form will prevail, and will that form be best for mankind.

Why are we subsidizing low-IQ illegals? Is McD's paying $15/hr + benefits due to a critical national labor shortage?

komputodo says

Learn how to defend themselves.

Hell with that, learn not to punch themselves in the face by importing sheepshagers from the Atlas Mountains would be a good start and then trying to force everybody else to take a few.

Actually, I have several theories. One is Damien is Macron and the Nanny is Merkel. The other is that the Daleks identified Europe as one the most advanced countries And.. HAVE BRAINWASHED SOME HUMANS TO EXTERMINATE OTHER HUMANS!!! EXTERMINATE!!!

What happened to gas tax. Possibly one of the things I can agree with Trump

Want to pay bigger gas tax - move to California.

WTF, they want free housing and free parking for undocumented students-becaus eof racism

Then they want the university to be honest to prospective students about antiblackism, trans phobia, racism and abelism on this campus-wtf is abelism???

Have I slipped down the rabbit hole-is this real-this must be from the onion?

Supremely stupid. Liberals do not even know how to be liberal.

They write, "Latinx (????) students will have the options (option you illiterate) of taking Spanish classes for free to provide reparation for forced assimilation and erasure of our language."

What these stupid fools do not understand is that SPANISH IS NOT 'THEIR' LANGUAGE.

Spanish is a white language, a European language, belonging to the European country of Spain.

Spanish people are WHITE EUROPEANS.

As it has worked its way throughout the world, Spanish is essentially a language of oppression. The only reason brown South and Central Americans speak Spanish is because it was forced upon them by the Spanish colonizers. By the sword.

If they truly wanted to "keep it real", they would be hearkening and promoting their indigenous languages, like Quechua in South America. THAT is your "real" language.

But they are too stupid to understand that.

Liberals are so stupid they don't even know how to be liberal.

Hispanic kids saying Spanish is "their language" is like Haitian kids saying French is "their language."

If one wants services & infrastructure,taxes will be paid.

Someone should make up their mind,tax cuts or tax increases?
We know who did, "Read my lips,no new taxes."
Some of us old codgers remember when LYING was not acceptable.
Times change.
Democratic & Republican voters find it perfectly acceptable today.

One little question,who benefits the most from the gas tax hidden agenda?

HEY YOU says

One little question,who benefits the most from the gas tax hidden agenda?

Electric car drivers? What's the hidden agenda?

Tim Aurora says

President Trump on Monday said he was open to raising the federal tax on gasoline and using the new revenue for his infrastructure package, a potentially major policy change as his top advisers try to assemble a plan to finance $1 trillion in new projects.

This is actually a good thing. Infrastructure investment is very important and a gas tax discourages unnecessary gas consumption. Let's see if he follows through on the infrastructure investment.

APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says

Marxist cunt.

Taxes on gasoline are a crime against shareholders and should be eliminated as unconstitutional confiscation, like seizing and freeing slaves.

Hey, at least he's not taxing ammo.

TwoScoopsMcGee says

We can't rely on Merkel, who is turning Europe into a Caliphate.

Well said.

All those people who were not paying their share for NATO all of a sudden complain that they have to pay... oh yeah I'm going to totally care.

Might as well rephrase it to "Angela Merkel has suggested Germany and Europe can no expect welfare defense from the US under Donald Trump, and have to start paying for their defense themselves".

As a taxpayer I'm not Europes bitch... pay pay pay, and they just take take take.

TwoScoopsMcGee says

Why are we subsidizing low-IQ illegals?

I do not think that happens unless there is something special at that school. As far as I know, there is a provision in Texas that Mexico nationals get in-state tuition (this is historical, and in many schools goes back nearly 100 years - UTEP for example), but I have not heard of similar law in Washington.

Sounds like libbies gone wild...

Or like majority of American kids saying that English is their language.

YAY!

Remember the time Trump was business partners with Russian govt? His company received $35M from Russia? -- Oh no wait, that was JOHN PODESTA!

Booger says

You forgot - transferred his shares to an LLC ostensibly run by his daughter, but voted the shares anyway in his leaked email a longer time after.

They found him in the White House kitchen naked, passed out with a gallon ice cream container on his head, empty bags of corn chips everywhere, and a RealDoll holding a whip. Sad.

APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says

All of that and a turkey baster he was apparently using to inject melty Coffee Heath Bar ice cream into his asshole

Wow, he HAS gone all delusional IHL, trying to inseminate himself to produce an orange, hirsute bundle of joy.

Please, everybody knows the President puts in a brief appearance at the WH, says something distracting and scowls for the cameras, then returns to golf and his harem at Mar-A-Lago. After hearing about Mohamadman and the 72 whores, The Donald is upgrading to 73 eastern European beauties, because the President deserves at least one more than anyone else. Meanwhile, like Cinderalla, Melania can enjoy the views from atop the phallic golden tower that bears President Trump's name.

If Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper wants to compete, he'll need to find the long lost codicil that declares him the rightful owner of half Manhattan and most of the upper Hudson River Valley. If he furnishes his mansion with a bed big enough to fit the entire Men's Olympic Swimming Team, people might take CNN seriously again.

The perfect job in the Trump Administration to drive somebody crazy before getting shitcanned: a job where you have to tell the truth at least part of the time, whether you like it or not.

Rewire the Press Briefing Room like a Skinner box, and put a control keyboard on the podium. Any time somebody messes with you, ZAP 10k Volts from one foot to the other. Pulses too brief to kill, but long enough that the shrieking and collapsing to the floor will send the right message of compassionate conservatism.

Federal law has mandated submission to involuntary contracts since 2014, so the next logical steps in American democracy may include mandatory consent forms. Happily, PatNet has already a thread that you can use.

The GOP needs to remember that their mission is to represent ordinary working Americans and not big business, too big to fail banks, the oil industry, wall street, the military industrial war machine - sigh - the list is too long to keep going.

I'm sorry, didn't Obama bail out the banks, not prosecute Bank Fraud, Lie about the non-existent skills gap, push countless Refugees from War Torn areas as refugees, emplace a Massive Corporate Subsidy for Healthcare Companies making Record Profits post-Obamneycare, etc. etc. etc.?

Eventually, Carter Page will testify, and thanks to the Courts, we know that under Obama the IC abused the fuck out of FISA. Obama prosecuted more Whistleblowers than all previous admins combined. He even tried to imprison journalists. History will not be kind to him.

I remind Democrats that their eventual Candidate, after much Skulldruggery by the DNC that is defending itself in a lawsuit on grounds that "Impartiality" is not an enforceable Clause and saw TWO Chairwomen resign within weeks of each other for rigging the nominations, was opposed to Glass-Steagall and told bankers she had a "Public" (talk tough to fool the sheep) and "Private" (help banksters) Policy.

The old Abortion and Guns Left - Right battle is giving way to the Globalist vs. Nationalist battle. This is the Turning of the System.

The next move is to purge the Republican party. McConnell and Ryan will be just as happy as Democrats.

Tim Aurora says

Get the populist movement out of the way.

The problem is the alternative is the globalist plutocrats bring you feudalism.
Your ass will look like a cauliflower.

Tim Aurora says

White supremacist will be shut down for next 20 years.

In 20yrs, whites will be a tiny minority and in 500 they will be a neanderthal like trace in the human gene pool.
If you disagree with this program, you are a white supremacist btw.
But assuming everything goes as globalists plan it, I wouldn't worry about whites supremacists.

The Christian Rights ravenous thirst for blood is insatiable. They will not sit by idly and watch ISIS out Sharia them, oh, no! They are frothing at the mouth for the opportunity to be used by war profiteers, like the Simple Simon good fee nothin no-goodnicks everyone knows them to be! Because smelly Brown people!

Christian radio host praises Greg Gianforte: We need a more violent Christianity

But I thought Christianity could never be radicalized because Jesus was nicer than Mohammad. I mean, yes, sure Christianity was as violent as Islam for 80% of its existence, and nearly as violent for another 10%, but that was like in the past and history has nothing to do with where we are today.

jazz music says

He then played the clip of President Trump shoving aside Montenegro’s president at the NATO summit this week and praised him for being “large and in charge.”

Wow, Christians praising Trump. So much for Christian morality. Trump is pretty much the anti-thesis of Jesus's teachings which basically said give up all material comforts and wealth to feed and clothe the poor. Evidently there were a lot of naked poor people in the Iron Age.

seems like we are still stuck in this narrow trading range

On the bright side, our lights stay on!

Tim Aurora says

Another side effect is that now China and Germany become the defacto leader of the world. Take that Russians, China is now your problem

Bwahahaha. China and India weren't required to lower CO2 Emissions until 2030. And no 3rd party verification.

No thanks!

We'll just have to tax the hell out of the rich to pay for the effects of climate change.

Evergreen State College has closed for the day because of a “direct threat to campus safety.”

Everyone was asked to leave the Olympia campus or return to residence halls for instructions, the college announced shortly after 11 a.m. Thursday.

In a news conference Thursday afternoon, Evergreen officials had few details about the threat, which came from someone who called local law enforcement.

Spokesperson Sandra Kaiser said she didn’t know the specific nature of the threat, or whether it was made by someone with a connection to the college.

How about we tax the hell out of people who choose to live at sea level by the coast?

socal2 says

How about we tax the hell out of people who choose to live at sea level by the coast?

Because coast lines were stable for literally tens of thousands of years and it was economically wise to build our economic and trade centers along them. Hell, the weird ass shapes of the early states in the U.S. were created that way precisely because access to waterways leading to the oceans were absolutely critical for trade and economics.

Why should we punish people for doing what was wise while not punishing the fools who fucked everything up? The expense of moving our major wealth producing cities hundreds of miles will measure in the quadrillions of dollars, far more wealth than was extracted by polluting. This is why conservatives suck at running businesses and government. They can't do correct cost-benefit analysis.

Tim Aurora says

Mar-a-lago . I hope it drowns

It will, but Trump will abuse his power to ensure that the taxpayers rather than he takes the loss. He'll probably sell the property to the government for twice its value when it comes close to the time the property is going to be swallowed. And republicans will praise him as a good businessman rather then a criminal stealing from the public.

Sea walls, levees, storm pipes, storage tunnels and pumps can work wonders.

Amsterdam and Venice have managed for hundreds of years with primitive technology.

I'm sure Miami can figure some things out without having to move their entire city.
