    Did you ever think you'd see the day...

    Me neither. Everyone who hates that I've known does so for a reason. Sometimes an irrational one, but a reason nonetheless.

    also-Brooks dumps DEMOCRATS

    Sadly - despite that - the R after his name is the way that Republicans can win the Senate and thus, set the agenda. In Maryland, a RINO still gets the Senate.

    Trump lawyer argues at SCOTUS assassinating rivals is covered by Presidential Immunity

    Well I was asking about the concept - not Trump. Can a President be found liable if an official act of their office is deemed a crime? And I did have a problem with Obama because in this environment - "terrorist" now gets used to describe "person I consider a threat" either personally or...

    Trump lawyer argues at SCOTUS assassinating rivals is covered by Presidential Immunity

    So - does Presidential immunity - exist AT ALL? Can a President order a hit on an American (as Obama did) - or say, fire all air traffic controllers - or start a war - and go to jail for it?

    Wonderful. Yet another way of breaking his promise not to raise taxes on those who make less than 400k.

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    Oh exactly. They’re counting on the idea that free stuff and helping an oppressed minority will create loyalty. Hispanics have very conservative values, are very religious and have deep loyalty to FAMILY above all. Some of their cultural norms would bother libs if they played on regular TV.

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    Indeed. We have Americans and businesses relocating there. Can’t be that bad. Plus, SOMEONE is assisting them through the country.

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    If you are escaping tyranny or being killed - you claim asylum in your first country you get to. You do not have the luxury of choosing Tahiti or Monaco as your destination for asylum, since the basic premise is, life in danger. Hence, Ukrainians seeking asylum in Poland or Turkey. They don’t...

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    BUT it's like DJ says and now I am hearing punditry echo it - it's all feelings. I said before, Martha's Vineyard exposed the fake compassion to the nth degree. It was JUST FIFTY PEOPLE. My parents took in four immigrants who lived with them for four months, some of them a little longer. These...

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    Some years back, there WERE mines in the Arizona desert. They're gone now. Also, to HELP illegals to cross the desert there, people set up water stops - which were sabotaged by residents. I think if you want to be kind to those entering this country - you should become a sponsor. It's virtue...

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    The biggest part of the problem is the lack of spine when it comes to enforcing the laws. Everything from social media, TV shows, movies and news programs portray illegal immigrants in the same utterly sympathetic light, and that expelling illegals is somehow cruel and inhumane. I don't know of...

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    You can ALWAYS brag about how charitable you are until you have to put your money where your mouth is. Martha’s Vineyard proved that beyond all doubt, FIFTY illegals that a handful of extremely wealthy persons COULD have helped - and within 24 hours they gave them a sandwich and a boot to the...

    What is the problem with an open southern border?

    Every study or paper I’ve ever read on the benefits of immigration completely conflates legal with illegal immigration. Every city that has taken on the burden of illegal migration has noticed a large net DRAIN on their resources. They do not present a benefit. WORSE, because we have flung the...

    One expert said 'all or nothing' EV push is 'one of the biggest energy policy blunders we've ever made'

    BFHD. Instead of filling up with gas, you spend HOURS for a full recharge. I just don’t see EVs as the green solution. Years ago I saw a concept car that just ran on compressed AIR. Two massive tanks beneath the car and it ran literally on AIR. Granted you would also have a time refilling the...
