Even Trump-appointed judges are disagreeing with your lord and savior about that "invasion" bullshit.

It turns out there was never an "emergency" at the border to justify ultra warmonger Trump declaring War Against Venezuela or any other country.

In fact, that blithering, blathering, fat fuck liar just totally destroyed his entire case for deporting USA Constitutionally-protected persons in America to El Salvador concentration camps in that hilariously pathetic Meet The Press interview when he rhapsodized about how wonderfully safe the border is now, "unlike any safe border anyone has ever seen. ".

Lololol.

[Spidy]

Ok Spidy so we have a member of the party that houses racists under the guise of being conservatives saying Social Security is a hand out. Why do they continue to repeat that lie? You and I know why. It is because they are hopeful individuals will not call them on their misinformation (actually lies). No matter how many times they say it the facts don't change. My fellow Americans have paid into Social Security. Where is the hand out? Those same Americans also pay the taxes that fund the rest of the expenses on your list.

It is the fault of the Article I branch of the USGOV that debt exists.

Who is receiving Social Security that was not a productive citizen before they began to receive it? Are individuals of the party that harbors (you know what) really that incapable of reasoning and rational thought? Or are they just numerically impaired.

Last question: I wonder out loud if the same people calling Social Security a hand out will also collect it when their times comes? They need to say yes.

Don't lie mother fucks!

Oh sure, they would! Bet your ass, just like many of those conservative robber barons, would just love to privatize Social Security (SS).

No doubt in privatized hands, IMHO, it would be, tantamount to an insidious financial ruin of SS and in spectacular fashion. Much like the elder, being short changed, and bamboozled by so called Medicare Advantage and healthcare insurance.

But the idea to privatize SS, under the typical guise that "the private financial industry would better manage SS" has been a long standing "honey pot", they'd love to get their greedy, malicious, pilfering, grifting and inevitable bankruptcy hands on.

The ravenous, greedy robber barons, under their Fuhrer's institution gutting admin, may well get their wish w/r to social security. But like the "too big to fail" banks, the robber barons know, that should they get their ugly mitts on SS, that after the inevitably gutting, raping and pillaging of SS, the gov't would bail them out, in a "too big to fail" bank like fashion.

After every financial intermediary, management and administrative accountant has "pick the pockets" of SS and taken "their cut" or "fees", for so called "managing" Social Security, all that left in the end, is a hallowed husk, on their way out the door.

This is how, for many libertarians or conservatives, privatizing SS is a step toward dismantling "the welfare state" entirely and the so called "handouts"!

That's all there is to the matter. You don't need to thank me, and you certainly don't need to squeal like a piggy, boy.

A guest in my county of the Dis-United States of America like the dumb mother fuck you keep mentioning should have known the law and followed it. If he did not know the law he should have been advised by his immigration attorney that he used to get his permanent residence status in the first place. Oh, he didn't have an attorney, so sorry for him. That is just plan stupid.

I have an attorney in every country where I am engaged in activities of a legal nature. In other words, where I am not JUST a tourist. That number totals 4 different countries at this point in my life.

I'm going to keep things really, really simple for you as I do sympathise with your cerebral challenges

The only cerebral challenge I present to anyone is to those that do not have their facts straight. Remind you of anyone you know?

ROTFLMAO!

Musk has caused problems at Newark Airport for a week now. Decreasing staff and cutting off funding for new equipment that would shore up the technology that the Air Traffic Controllers use to keep planes separated and safe in the air. FAA is putting ground holds on planes leaving from and leaving for Newark. Causing a snarl in the movement of aircraft that was a well oiled machine before Musk took his chainsaw to FAA operations.

Oh, those poor MAGA manufacturers and farmers who are the hardest hit today while their American Working Men and Women Consumer customers will most definitely be hit even harder in the next few weeks and beyond. Well, as long as Trump or any other Trumpian Repub is in the White House, that is.

Trump tariffs slump widens to 'nearly all USA Exports,' supply chain data says.

Dispite what the MAGAs' favorite and most beloved America-hating con man tries to con you into thinking, this isn't just about dolls and pencils, folks.

And he was going to completely destroy the turds, the only thing I wasnt expecting was at the speed and ease he is destroying the pathetic left! (ala Potemkin Village ala CCPland).

Allahu Akbar MOFOS.

On the issue of due process and likely everything else pertinent to the current destruction of America by Trump and his MAGA slaves, the USA Constitution refers to "persons" in the country, not "citizens" in the country.

Oh, and this is why Joe Biden did not close the borders to perfectly USA Constirutionally-protected "persons" crossing the border during his historically successful economic recovery from yet another horrific Repub economic disaster. See report below.

BTW, the NYT also published extensive verified reports on this subject, how and why Biden's brilliant use of immigration contributed mightily to the reason America recovered faster and stronger from Trump's Pandemic than any other country, but our resident NYT subscriber who loves quoting entire articles from that and other media has mysteriously never bothered to post those particular subscriber-restricted reports. Probably just a MAGA oversight. LOL:

How immigrants are helping keep job growth hot while inflation cools.

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/17/immi...ndroidappshare

BTW, the reason the market rose modestly over the past 9 sessions or so is because it has merely been trading within the Sell-Off and Correction level Trump's disastrous trade wars and tariffs blather drove it down into "unlike anything anyone has ever seen" in the first 100 days of a presidential term other than under one other "American nightmare" Repub president. I'll leave the research for which one that was to you.

The market would have fallen much lower by now under Trump's Classic Repub Policies and Stewardship but for the fact that the Envy of the World Economy created by Biden-Harris and handed to Trump on a silver platter was too damn good to be destroyed so quickly and easily by an incoming Repub this time around.

But that Repub will sure as hell keep trying!

Regardless, underestimating the Chinese is something I would strongly advise against. They have shown time and time again the ability to reinvent and to out do the ROW on whatever they set their minds too. Musk literally laughed at them 10 years ago when someone suggested BYD was a threat and yet now he runs to his temp bro Trump pleading for tariffs saying that Tesla would be destroyed if BYD were allowed in.

Actually a point of agreement. Several of my fellow Americans speak of China without knowledge or facts of the situation. I have to admit to ignorance until I spend extensive time on this side of the world. China exports products to the entire world. I have seen BYD vehicles up close and in person as I have been picked up in them when I have had the occasion to use the Bolt ride service. They roll fire equipment off the line faster and for much lower cost than companies in the United States of America. USA Fire Departments cannot buy Chinese Equipment by law. China exports them to the rest of the world. They have a new commercial airliner that will be available for customers on this side of the world.

Lastly, I have taken up motorcycling late in like. Some people like to point to my age as a problem. I consider my an age a badge of honor and say to younger people better hope you live at least as long as I have. Anyway I digress. Chinese motorcycle are hitting the market with high quality, more tech, more power, lest cost. Way less cost than other manufacturers. The USA is a big market. But for China it is not the only market out there.

As for the predicted decline in the USA, it is already happening. But like anything else in life a turn around is possible. Don't know if I will live long enough to see who wins that bet. But is does not matter. I am excising my Constitutional rights and pursuing my happiness.

I give credit where credit is due. I have no need to engage in ad hominem attacks. I got facts on my side.

[SubCmdr]

You don't need to thank me, and you certainly don't need to squeal like a piggy, boy.

Impossible to have a conversation with someone only interested in engaging in ad hominem attacks.

As for Mahmud Khalil, he was and is a US permanent resident, not a guest.

Perment Resident

Another important limitation on lawful permanent residents is that they are subject to the grounds of deportability. If you commit certain crimes or security violations, or even fail to advise USCIS of your changes of address, you can be placed in removal proceedings and deported from the United States

Not a citizen. Got sideways with the law. Currently going through the DUE PROCESS allowed for him to fight the deportation process.

Over simplification and failure to read and understand the law of the land (in this case the Dis-United States of America) causes lack of understanding of the legal processes that occur in that land.

"Don't wrestle with a pig, you both get dirty and the pig enjoys it", urged George Bernard Shaw. On this occasion I'll opt to disregard his wise words. Try reading it slowly.

It does not matter how slowly I read something. If POTUS does not uphold his OATH there is recourse available as laid out in the the Constitution of the United States of America.

I don't need to read that document. Because I as a child I received instruction on it. I carried it around while I was under oath. When I need to refer to it I pull up quotes from it on the internet because I know exactly what it says and the provisions therein.

Impeachment

The United States Constitution provides that the House of Representatives "shall have the sole Power of Impeachment" (Article I, section 2) and "the Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments but no person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present" (Article I, section 3). The president, vice president, and all civil officers of the United States are subject to impeachment.

https://www.senate.gov/about/powers-...mpeachment.htm

If you are a guest and you get sideways with the law you are going to get deported. If you are arguing the fine point of Constitutional Law with a citizen of the Dis-United States of America you are going to have to back up your statements with quotes from the Constitution. Over simplification is your problem HotDog666. Start with the what the Constitution says then the law.

You are entitled to your own opinions but not your own facts

Touched a soft spot there, hey Stephen? Four posts in quick succession, one on another thread with your characteristic inanity more relatable to a 16 year old than a 60+ year old- oh and if you want to know why you're an imbecile, ask on the right thread otherwise you err. Come across as an imbecile.

To add to this- yes, the debt fuelled real estate build is one of the dumbest things the CCP has presided over and it's destroyed trillions of $ in this. It's had and will continue to have a significant drag on their economic performance. However, I don't see their following the Japanese into a deflationary spiral for two reasons: firstly, they have an immense amount of dry powder being the world's biggest debtor and the world's biggest saver. In fact this is their biggest weakness in that they just save way too much and consume too little, but it's also their biggest strength with regards to America being the world's biggest creditor. Who would you rather be given the choice? The second reason is admittedly less objective but still valid: it's their culture. They unlike the Japanese who have succumbed to a westernesque complacency, have still a chip on their shoulder, something to prove, a hunger and a drive and passion that the Japanese abandoned a long time ago. They are still suffering from the humiliation of the opium wars and a burning desire to wash off that humiliation through growth. They do this through both noble and ignoble means in my experience. The latter is how they waste food to indicate their wealth (the trauma of starvation from the 60's still lives in the national psyche) and this is something I've been very unimpressed by.

Regardless, underestimating the Chinese is something I would strongly advise against. They have shown time and time again the ability to reinvent and to out do the ROW on whatever they set their minds too. Musk literally laughed at them 10 years ago when someone suggested BYD was a threat and yet now he runs to his temp bro Trump pleading for tariffs saying that Tesla would be destroyed if BYD were allowed in. Napoleon warned " don't wake the sleeping dragon for when it wakes it will shake the world". Well the dragon is wide awake and the onus is on America now to determine how it deals with this, we all will bear the consequences of your strategy.

The problem with your idea of who the constitution is for, Elvis, is that while it's easy to disregard its breach when it's in your favour it's not so great when the tables turn. The constitution isn't "for" anyone in general. It's literally an articulation of the fundamental principles governing a state.

Actually, I agree, China has stolen a lot of ideas and IP. So what? As if the west hasn't a history of exploitation of the world to advance. America (by your own admission) got it's break on slavery, and the UK and Western Europe expropriated unimaginable wealth from their colonies. My view is it is what it is, we all need to get off our own high horses. As for subsidies, for sure China has done these once again, so what? As if the west hasn't. You really think Boeing hasn't been vastly subsidised? Tesla? Airbus? It is what it is. None of this really negates the point I've made about China rivalling American supremacy.

With reference to the American Navy, there's zero % chance of America successfully compelling the Middle East or other oil producers from importing oil into China, upon which reliance is diminishing anyhow as they are going renewable at a breakneck speed. The only relevance of the American military is on Taiwan. Military strategists admit themselves that within 5-7 years they will no longer have the upper hand here. I do not approve of China's Taiwanese stance- I'm just laying the facts out.

Trump tariffs slump widens to 'nearly all USA Exports,' supply chain data says.

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/06/trum...ndroidappshare

An exports slide that began in early 2025 has reached most ports across the U.S. and nearly all export market products as the trade impact of President Trumps tariffs worsens, with agriculture the hardest hit.

As businesses cancel orders from China, U.S. imports continue to plummet, with a 43% week-over-week drop in containers through April 28.

We havent seen anything like this since the disruptions of summer 2020, said Kyle Henderson, CEO of trade tracker Vizion.
..........
What began as a rapid drop in U.S. imports as shippers cut orders from manufacturing partners around the world has now extended into a nationwide export slump, with the U.S. agricultural sector and top farm products including soybeans, corn, and beef taking the hardest hit.

Dispite what the MAGAs' favorite and most beloved America-hating con man tries to con you into thinking, this isn't just about dolls and pencils, folks.

[HotDog666]

Nope, sorry, the US Constitution is for Americans not people who come to our country illegally and commit crimes, and when we were founded as a nation, we had slaves and only land owners could vote. Before an income tax and women could vote, the USA was the #1 economy in the world.

Everyone knows that the reason Biden opened up the border was to pay immigrants money so they could vote Democrat. That is not saving our country. Our forefathers knew that when citizens could vote themselves money as opposed to work for it, we were doomed.

If the world were able to sue China for damages from Covid, they would be poorer than when they joined the WTO. China is no miracle. They had the largest population and enticed businesses to locate there so they could sell to that market however American businesses had to partner with China. China steals their secrets and goes out on their own and produces things at a much lower cost hurting the original Western businesses. People were enticed by lower prices, and our supply chains were stupidly moved there. Slave wages and theft do not impress me.

China does not care about profits. The CCCP wants power. The reason that China is building so many empty cities is to keep people employed, and China is going into tremendous debt to do so. Demographically speaking, the one child policy will spell doom as their population is already older than America's. China is going the way of the last Asian economic miracle country which was Japan. Their debt will strangle them.

Not even close. China is hugely dependent on Middle East oil and does not have the navy to keep it flowing. That is why the USA is getting out of the world's policeman / super power role. We are no longer dependent on foreign oil. Foreign trade is more of a luxury than a necessity for the USA now. Everyone wants to sell in the USA market and with that comes power that Trump is using.

What is happening now is that Trump wants to bring production back to the USA. A lot of the manufacturing that will be being brought back to the USA will be with automation. The tariffs are put in place to negotiate better deals for the USA and to protect these newly formed manufacturers. You cannot have China and Vietnam dumping goods in at below cost to destroy these nascent industries. And we were bringing back supply chains even before Trump was in office. He is just accelerating the process.

Once we bring much of our production back to the USA, we will produce better goods than anywhere else.

Thing about the Chinese economic miracle is the people touting that do not live in China. It does not take anyone long to figure out China is hell once they are there. The civilized places are crowded as fuck. Twenty miles out of the city, and you are back in the Middle Ages. And the people who return from China are often sick from the food, air, and water.

Once the USA moves away from rewarding the people who do not produce anything like lawyers and hedge fund managers and starts to reward people who provide actual goods and services to the public, we will be fine, and that will happen.

By the way, the reason the market has been up the last 10 sessions or so is not just that Trump is striking deals, it is that the tariffs are not nearly as inflationary as the media is reporting, and the tariffs are needed to protect those investing in that new manufacturing.

I do not approve of China's Taiwanese stance- I'm just laying the facts out.

On tariffs, there is again a zero % chance of America "bringing home production". Firstly, it's not something you can just flip a switch on. A lot of the production capabilities require great skill and expertise, which America simply lacks. Secondly, these kinds of facilities take decades to build and most importantly, even if you could bring back production (you can't and won't) the cost would be massively prohibitive. Your Iphone would double in price. That's why they're shifting to India. It's not going to happen.

The tariffs haven't affected inflation yet because they haven't kicked in. Let's touch base at Christmas. But we know they won't even then because Trump will cave in to China. He's caved in so much already they should call him the Caveman.

Look, the bottom line is on one side you have a multiple bankrupt who wrote "the Art of the Deal", yet displays a total lack of understanding of how to do a deal, having alienated friends and empowered enemies. On the other side you have a 5000 year civilisation which wrote "the Art of War". I know who my money is on.

How immigrants are helping keep job growth hot while inflation cools.
June 17, 2024

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/17/immi...ndroidappshare

Immigration has helped the U.S. job market sustain a fiery run in recent months without reigniting inflation, economists and analysts say.

The U.S. economy added a whopping 272,000 jobs in May, but the consumer price index was unchanged.

This dynamic a hot job market and cooling inflation is in part the result of increased inflows of immigrants.

Recent spikes in immigration at the southern border and elsewhere in the U.S. have helped keep the labor pool full even as job gains kept apace.

BTW, the reason the market rose modestly over the past 9 sessions or so is because it has merely been trading within the Sell-Off and Correction level Trump's disastrous trade wars and tariffs blather drove it down into "unlike anything anyone has ever seen" in the first 100 days of a presidential term other than under one other "American nightmare" Repub president.

How billionaires created the DEI panic.
See the video too.
5/5/2025

https://www.mediamatters.org/critica...ated-dei-panic

Wokeism

Reinventing the PC panic with cancel culture worked so well, why not do it again? A few months later, a new moral panic emerged on the right around wokeism.

The formula was exactly the same: Minorities have taken control, theyre silencing conservatives, you cant tell the truth anymore. And just like with political correctness and cancel culture, the wokeism panic was fueled by minor anecdotes amplified by right-wing media. A Fox News host announced that Lego is going woke, for instance, after the company unveiled a range of characters with disabilities.

(And so much more. See article)
