Unfortunately sometimes concessions have to be made in order to move things along. That is just the reality of how things work in the swamp. Trump learned that his first go around and the lessons learned came the hard way. At times it can be a choice between two not so good options. A deal had to be made but I am sure Trump got something in return that he needed.
The "secret" also lacks sauce and it's anyone's guess as to what it is or if Trump is simply trolling the left and the establishment. I appreciate your opinion. At this point it is all speculation being formed from what we do know. That is what I base my opinion upon - what we do know sitting in front of us.
Trump is pulling several key people out of Congress. Once we actually officially seal the House, we will only have a very slim majority. We cannot afford to lose any seats. Senate seats can be appointed by the governors, but the House is by special election process which can take as long as 6 months. That does not sound good when Trump is trying to move forward quickly with his agenda and the people he is pulling are from the America First coalition. I am sure they have taken that into consideration and have a plan to pick good replacements to campaign for those seats. But, never underestimate the Dems and their bag of dirty tricks.
I am very encouraged that Trump is not pulling from the usual pool of swamp creatures for his picks unlike his first term. So far I like the people he has picked for these important positions. This was one of my issues with the first go around. It proves that he will not make the same mistakes and is doing a better job at keeping his administration free from the traitors and snakes. No wonder the establishment is in meltdown. He means business!
It will cost no more than the money spent by the government to bring them here to begin with and then take care of them after they arrive - all while neglecting to take care of Americans. In fact in the end, we will save money when you factor in all the other costs they drain from society. As far as I am concerned, it is money well spent to save this country.
Move someone in and good luck getting rid of them when they take over. You are the one that ends up being put out of your own home while the illegals get to stay. I know people where this very scenario happened to them. No good deed goes unpunished.
Some of them have realized that their focus on identity politics has been a failed strategy. The majority of resentful Americans are not listening to them anymore and are looking to alternatives rather than to legacy media. The scamdemic helped to fuel that shift.
We will have to wait and see whether they can turn their ships back around to a more balanced style of reporting. Without a complete gutting of their organizations, I doubt they will be able to change. It will take time to regain trust after they have so alienated the majority of Americans who seem unlikely to ever trust them again. As you stated so well, they have made themselves irrelevant with their biased propaganda and many Americans have simply moved on.
Besides all the ridiculous and bogus studies and grants, I am hoping someone clamps down on the billions spent by NGOs - many that are nothing more than money laundering schemes and fund the war against America - like the illegal invasion. The lion's share of those NGOs are run by lefties. They need to finally get real jobs instead of being supported by hard working Americans to destroy our country.
None of this is going to get fixed until these Reps in positions speak out. They are supposed to be representing the party. We have been silent for too long and they are mowing over us - especially here in Nevada.
Sharon is a good friend of mine. Reid was afraid of her. Another thing Reid did was well before the general they went and bought up all the air time for political advertising far in advance basically leaving her with no air time at all. Coming off the primary it took some time to raise the funds to run in the general. By the time Sharon was in a position to put ads out for the general, Reid had sucked all the air time up which basically left her with trying to get her message out on radio and mailers. She was unable to rebuttal the nutjob slurs. Nevada politics at its best.
CA is my home state. I remember how it used to be - a great place. Now it is a sh*t hole, especially the western part closer to the coastal areas. The eastern part of the state has tried to maintain, but the woke commie BS policies coming out of Sacramento are making life more difficult. I still have family in CA and they tell me how bad it keeps getting there. They are not in a position to leave, or they would move elsewhere. They need our prayers because they are stuck living in hell.
Thanks for sharing. Professor Sachs is on the money. All that bull about Putin failing to take Kiev is pure propaganda. He only wanted to retain the ethnic Russian East. Kiev was just to force Ukraine to negotiate. The West lied again giving Putin the impression they had a deal. Like the Minsk agreement, it was a lie. He pulled out of Kiev as an act of good faith and was stabbed in the back again. The front line has not moved from where it has been for 2 years. Why if taking Ukraine was supposedly the goal? Russia is just trying to hold what it has - the East. It does not want the rest of Ukraine. The West can have it.
However, things are not going well for Russia at the moment. This has gone on longer than what he first anticipated. The economy is taking a big hit, the losses are mounting up, and they are forced to use cheap Chinese and older Soviet era weapons. Some of the oligarchs are smelling blood in the water and trouble is breaking out between the Chechens and some of the oligarchs. There have already been some shootouts between the groups. Some of these groups have their own small armies. Russian military corruption and incompetence is taking its toll.
Putin will be open to negotiations to get this thing over. In addition, he aligned himself with China - and that is proving to have been a mistake. China sold Putin a bill of goods and overestimated their position. Putin is not happy about it. China wants them to continue to keep us occupied because they think it will weaken the US so they will be able to move on Taiwan with little to no interference. Putin turned to NK, but their weapons are even worse than the Chinese ones they were sent. Plus a whole bunch of the recently shipped NK weapons in a depot were blown up by Ukrainian drones. Ukraine is causing some problems inside Russia with those drones.
The only ones that will lose at the end of this war are Ukraine and Russia. I just pray Trump can get these guys to the table soon. Besides, Trump has a big score to settle with Zelensky for throwing him under the bus over that phone call.
Exactly. How can the top office go Rep and rest to Dems? Same thing like what happened in 2022 when the only Republican to win was the governor. All the rest of the down ballot went Dem - including Laxalt for Senator. Tell me how that math works? Same thing, in the middle of the night everything flipped - guess where? Washoe and Clark counties. The same as this time. I am sure they will say it was some kind of glitch. I have heard reports from all over the country about glitches. Right...
The people that found the discrepancy in the voting totals reached out to the NV GOP and they have not responded - as usual. Citizens were forced to file a police report and sent the information to the SoS - for all the good that will do - another office that was flipped in 2022. Votes were not added, but they disappeared Thur night to Fri morning.
I texted Sharon Angle to see if she knew anything about it or could give some insight. If you don't remember who she is, she ran against Harry Reid a few years back for NV Senate. She knows all the dirty tricks of the Reid machine here in NV.
There is an article about it on the Gateway Pundit. They have pics of the voter totals from the state showing the discrepancy. I was under the impression that we were supposed to have mechanisms in place for this kind of thing. I am not sure if Sam Brown's camp knows anything about it either.
Great reply. Most of those 4 stars and colonels are nothing more than political hacks anyway and need to be replaced. Besides, we don't need that many 4 stars drawing a paycheck. Anything above a captain is pretty much dead weight and politicized. It has been ever since Obama gutted the top brass. The top brass needs to be gutted again and Hegseth seems like just the man to do the job.
