If they believe, as the CNN host says, they don't want non-citizens, i.e. illegals mostly, voting, then why the crying and gnashing of teeth?
The DOJ is certainly breaking the law once again.
I hope black folks vote Trump by a majority.
He's not calling Democrats the enemy within. They know it. He's referring to the swamp creatures on both sides. It isn't just Democrats, it is Republican operatives and the like of George W. Bush and his bunch that have been in government swaying our policies towards more and more never ending forever neo-con wars.
The enemy within is this large child trafficking operation. The enemy within are the warmongers who go for war first instead of making deals. It is the entrenched special interests that have hijacked the FDA for instance. Or FEMA for instance.
Joe either is lying, or doesn't know what he is talking about.
I don't think so. Not everyone out here is Republican. Lots of Democrats too. Not all the Democrats are 'Asheville liberal' far left lunatics. Lots of Labor Democrats here, lots of middle of the road Democrats. Don't let Asheville fool you into believing all of them are lunatics.
But yes most of the counties are majority republican.
Lots of honest folk just like him all over these mountains. This guy would bring you in and feed you if you were starving. That's how they are in the rural parts.
If its 20k dead I bet I know someone or have met someone in that total. That is so horrible what has happened. FEMA literally tried to stop rescues and supplies.
I've lived here since 1990 except for a small stint in Tennessee in the late 90s, and I can tell you these mountain people are honest folk. They are not lying when they report these things.
The Governor really dropped the ball on the response. Was it his fault 50 trillion gallons of water was dropped by Helene, nope, but the response was tepid at best and I believe on purpose at worst, maybe even worse than that.
I don't want to see a nuclear exchange either. But Taiwan is basically ours, meaning the United States has a very special relationship with Taiwan. China has no business surrounding Taiwan or threatening them. I'd rather tell China the truth than let a war happen. Chances are with the right leadership all this can be averted. But if China were not to listen to reason then the threat of nuclear weapons should be on the table.
That was a very sincere prayer. I felt the Holy Spirit come through the screen. That man's prayer was very selfless and he prayed right by addressing the Father and ending it in Jesus name.
I've paid FICA for a long long time.
I've been going back and forth as to whether I should vote or not. I voted for Trump in 2016 and his speech after descending down the elevator clinched it for me. I went to tell my mothers husband after the speech, directly, I said 'just watch he'll be the next president'. He poo pooed that and laughed at me. I said 'ok but just watch he's going to win'. He came around. When he went after the Bush family in the debates over the Iraq war I literally just about had a stroke because I was so happy someone finally said the truth!
I voted for him in 2020, but was not happy about him encouraging the lockdowns. They did cheat him big. He probably won 40 states with at least a 5 million vote margin nationally.
So here I am in 2024. I know for certain I'd never vote for Kamala or her Weirdo Walz VP pick. He's is an insane person, but so is she.
So I've decided to vote one more time for Trump. I just hope he doesn't listen to either political extreme and stays steady in the center. I like his border policy and trade policies. I appreciate his tax proposals. I just hope he doesn't listen to the likes of PNAC or anyone on the far left. No deals on transing kids. No deals. No deals on gutting Social Security either. People have paid into that. I hope he encourages the big corporations to pay workers better, and hope he supports the labor movement. Labor did build the middle class.
We'll see.
I've studied geopolitics for quite some time and letting China take Taiwan would be the largest geopolitical tragedy since the fall of the USSR.
We fought WWII and secured Japan. We also fought in Korea at least giving the South a chance at economic freedom. We sided with the legitimate government of China which fled to Taiwan. We lost lots of soldiers throughout this whole ordeal to let Taiwan go to the Chinese Communist Party.
If Taiwan falls, so does Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, and maybe others. That whole region will be controlled by the Chinese Navy and good luck with free and open waters for trade in that region.
Proposal. Defend Taiwan yes even with nukes on Mainland China if needed. Take back the Panama Canal from Chinese control. Work with Western Hemispheric nations under OAS to rid Chinese influence from this hemisphere.
Letting Taiwan go would be a disaster for the planet.
Lots of stuff needs to be upgraded in this country. It can be done with American steel and to do that we'd need more steel mills.
I can tell you why they hated Castro so much. He kicked the Roman Catholic church's child trafficking, gambling, and other subversive activities out. He nationalized industries and they didn't like that either. So this policy of the United States cow towing to the rich Cubans that left for Florida for all these decades. It is a stupid policy. We should never do foreign policy on behalf of the Roman Catholic Church under any circumstance.
I agree. But we've literally sent trillions to foreign nations and started foreign wars.
I've been saying this for a long time. Want jobs? Large beautification projects. All sorts of things can be done. Greening roofs in the big cities would help with cooling them down too.
I always love the idea of highspeed rail. We could do that along with these beautification projects and put millions to work. It could be financed through short term (7 year bonds), a mix of investments from government and private sector. And local initiatives too.
Well to be honest, I'm better off than many, but at the same time that $750 could have helped considering I actually paid in in taxes to the Feds.
He certainly deserves it. He should have had 5000 National Guard on standby as soon as the winds calmed down. He should have had them assist in cell towers as we use cell phones as our main source of communication. That should have been done within 48 hours max. Also at the same time with search and rescue immediately. Also he should have helped with electric restoration by transporting supplies, poles, electric wires and helped with logistics on all three mentioned here.
He failed so terribly no way was it just incompetence.
Yep. I agree, locals are doing 99% of everything with FEMA assisting in landgrab for the WEF and goons like Gov. Cooper.
How about decorporatize America and our government. That'd make me happy. To many super rich greedy bass turds running things, when common law government should rule the day. Our Constitution is a common law document. How far we've gone away from the intents and hope of the Founders.
'brave new world' doesn't incite hope and fuzzy feelings in me.
I was under the impression 'Q' was against a police state and was for less government.
Here is just one example out of so many. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ntlvNh6AT4
I agree, but the DNC and the DOJ can find the right judge these days. The courts have been hijacked.
