You opened the door with your comments “ Go hug yourself in the corner and rock” A stereotypical behavior of the mentally ill in Hollywood movies
To try to take the high road in this case, that you’re the defender of those suffering from addiction and/ or mental illness is the level of hypocrisy we’ve come to expect
I hope all our former players are happy and healthy. I don’t recall telling any such jokes, but if I did I apologize.
Needs to include puberty blockers. But good on this administration. The best day for children since Epstein didn't kill himself.
Dude there's been so much winning it's hard to keep up. My favorite part about it is watching the left wing nut jobs lose their mind.
Promises made, Promises Kept!
Yup, if Ice were the Gestapo ( this week’s favorite talking point), I’m guessing you wouldn’t be able to call them the Gestapo on national tv.
Why is the Left so obsessed with diminishing what actually happened in Nazi Germany?
If the left was on the Titanic, they would have complained about the color of the emergency boats they were getting into.
The overall question for me is where was this energy when Barry was deporting $3M+ illegal aliens?
Bless little Selena’s heart, but no one will ever match the sheer lunacy of AOC’s crying at the detention facilities. That was comic gold.
Gomez seemed legit upset, which tells you that she not only follows orders from her overlords but that she has swallowed the lies hook, line, and sinker.
She’s sent a bunch of $ to Gaza to end starvation resulting from Israeli oppression. Oblivious to the fact the money will likely end up in terrorist hands So virtue signaling is her jam
Obama was the Chosen One who simply enforced immigration law. They went to bed every night with a tingle up their leg that this racist to the core nation elected the first half- black President. They had a collective hard on for eight years. Sales of Viagra plummeted
AOC is a political hack that should've never been elected into government. She's a moron. Selena can take a hike too. They're both blinded by their own stupidity.
Regarding Barry, you're are right. He's the first mixed race half black/half white president. Barry is very smart, very eloquent in speech and charming. Ol Bill Clinton was very similar. It's just funny all of these over reactions to criminals being deported when Trump does it but no a peep when Obama did it. Without double standards, libs wouldn't have any standards at all.
Speaking of old Bill, a shallow dive on Wiki informs that during his eight years in office, TWELVE MILLION were deported, but in general I don’t remember it being a major news story.
There was no social media back then, but I don’t remember a peep from celebs or Legacy media.
Indicates the leftward lurch they’ve taken in the past couple of decades. In contrast Bush era only two million deported . Obama 3.1 m
Nope, they didn't b/c they truly don't care, never have. It's only bad b/c Trump is doing it. It's the way the left wing mentally ill faction works.
Personally, I love watching the libs meltdown. It's truly glorious.
Deport them ALL! I don't care where they're from. You got to go!
Shumer’s net worth exceeds 81 million. Due to “lobbying and business ventures”. The rot runs deep
That was a shrill, cringeworthy performance Pocohantas put on today. She was jealous of Bobby’s deep tan. The other kids on the reservation called her ‘Paleface’ growing up and it still stings.
They have to protect their money, bro!
It's unfathomable that our politicians in congress would fight against making sure what's in our food is safe, what's in the vaccines are safe and trying to figure out a way to better our overall healthcare system.
There so many things wrong about the RFK Jr hearing yesterday. It literally makes me sick.
How much money would the medical and pharm industries lose if say, over a five to ten year period the obesity rate in the US went down 20 to 30% ? Heart disease and diabetes would plummet as a result. It’s in their best financial interest to keep us sick
Big Pharma and Big Med have bought and paid for these politicians
If you questioned anything about the vaccine during Covid you were an antivax kook.
Why are they so afraid of open debate?
Too bad 14 can’t chime in Is he banned for life? Like Shoeless Joe?
I'm not saying it's true, but the "expert or doctor" in this video I watched a few weeks ago said we've been lied to about salt.
Exactly KD! The sicker we are, the more profit they get. Looking at the post Smash put out. How people can support the politicians that are getting paid MILLIONS is beyond me. I hope RFK takes down all the Pharma companies and puts liability back on them.
I never took the jabby. Never even considered it. I understand your question is rhetorical. LOL... If they allowed debates among experts, a majority would have not taken them. They also snuffed out and ridiculed drugs like Ivermectin. Basically there would've been no money in it. Everyone associated with it should be in prison.
Funny story, I applied for a job for a large tech company about a month ago. I had internal referrals and was more than qualified. They had the "have you taken the jab" on their application. I knew right then I would be rejected. Sure enough, I got the rejection email 5 mins after submission. Didn't know companies were still allowed to discriminate on that basis.
Mac more and more experts are coming out saying the same thing. I'm sure you heard that the sugar industry paid the Harvard scientist to say Sugar good, Salt bad, right?
This is why I told my wife there will never be a cure for cancer. Look at the organizations that take in huge money in the name of cancer research. To much money to be made on the back of sickness. Again, I'm no expert, but was listening to a podcast with a Dr. He was talking about how bad chemo really is but the kickback that Dr's get by using it is to much to give up so why look for other answers.
Unlike most of what y'all have been posting lately, this actually gets my attention as potentially legitimate.
But instead of just accepting it as truth from the jump, I looked into it...
from PharmaVoice: Points out that Dem and GOP receive big money from big pharm and that it has historically gone much more heavily to GOP candidates... I mention that for context, because y'all never present it like that here. It goes on to say that it swung much more heavily in favor of Democrats recently.
from StatNews: In the 2020 elections, more than 2/3 of Congress accepted pharma money. It skews more to the GOP if we're splitting hairs, but I would hope we all see the 2/3 figure as more important and objectionable than the hair-splitting over which party took more.
also from StatNews: This one has a firewall preventing me from seeing the whole article, but it's about how campaign contributions from big pharm don't stop at the federal level. It's just as bad at the state level. (And while I am well aware of the fact that land doesn't vote. y'all seem to pop stiffies over maps showing color-coded counties across the country, so own the one here.)
So what part of the problem is most important to y'all? That big pharm has too much influence, or that Democrats have indeed taken more money from them recently?
“More money”. Factually true, but a vast understatement. Sen from Ga Warlock alone received 1.7 million.
It’s not splitting hairs. If Republicans were bought and paid for as the Dems are, he wouldn’t have the vast support he does Trump or not.
Correction on MoW funding... The tweet you posted is almost exactly 99% off the actual federal funding for MoW.
The "hard data" cited in the tweet you posted is from a religious blog called "Joe is Done," which is the website connected to that DataRepublican Twitter account, so they are citing "hard data" from their own blog. But then you surely knew from the name on the twitter account that it wasn't trying to be objective, just like Sen Schumer wasn't.
What constitutes "refugee-related services"? I did a search and the closest figure I found was that $424 million goes to the refugee and asylum division of the USCIS. "Refugee-related services" sounds like a broad, catch-all phrase. And y'all do understand that refugees are different from undocumented immigrants, right? "Refugee" isn't a bad word. They deserve compassion.
So... as to my last question there, you care more about nailing Democrats for taking more recently than you do about the overall influence of big pharm. Not a question.
You didn't ask me, but I have a problem with big pharma and ANY politician that have made money off them. They all act like they care, but many don't.
The biggest part of the problem is that pharma has too much influence in politics period. Whether it's Ted Cruz or Elizabeth Warren.
I suspect that contributions to Democrats have gone up dramatically since Nov 5 with the spectre of these specific RFK hearings looming. That has my attention at the moment
the hearings prove that we dont elect the best or brightest to represent us...talking about the ones on the committee already. They just embarrass themselves
And if you're watching this and don't see that, you're intentionally not paying attention.
