I shouldn't post this , because it's downright outrageous and an insult to women.
I propose we have a day of rage.

Question this in the pre Trump era,epithets if transphobic get thrown your way.

Liberalism is pure madness.

This should also outrage you .

https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2025/03/31/uk-school-suspended-a-toddler-for-transphobia-n3801347

Department for Education (DfE) data show the child, aged either three or four, was suspended from a state school in the 2022-23 academic year for “abuse against sexual orientation and gender identity”.
The school and further details of the case were not disclosed.
But statistics show that 94 pupils at state primary schools were suspended or permanently excluded for transphobia and homophobia in 2022-23.

( But we can't forget men of the collar have been caught defiling children ?? ).

Tesla protests. Man blocks 61 year old woman driving a Tesla, he assaulted her . The fool has been arrested

Another leftist firebombed a Tesla dealership. He was arrested. Pam Bondi says DOJ will be asking for 20 years.

What for? Because Elon is uncovering massive govt fraud in govt,media says he has provided no evidence.

This was a legal immigrant who was picked up by ice and deported

The news is full of stories like this.

It is not surprising that Republicans are not concerned. This is what they voted for. This is what they want. For those who are not like them to be silenced and intimidated.
Wasn't referring to such cases ,I meant the whole idea about immigrants. Why are democrats so against deportations.
An example. Joe Biden granted Temporary Protected Status to 350,000 Venezuelans on Oct 2023 for 18 months set to expire Apri 7 next week. DHS announces they won't renew the status. An Obama judge has ruled that the TPS should not expire for it "threatens to: inflict irreparable harm on hundreds of thousands of persons whose lives, families, and livelihoods will be severely disrupted, cost the United States billions in economic activity, and injure public health and safety in communities throughout the United States.".

Biden can giveth, Trump can't taketh away.
Venezuela is actually threatening Guyana demanding to take by force some oil rich territory ,the Trump admin has warned Maduro over that. In other words Venezuela is not at war or under gangs, it has the military might to invade another country.

I have blocked many of them but someone I know on Twitter has said this twice last month about silence from them on this matter. They no longer say that BS of only illegal immigrants anymore according to him. grin

Many people would begin to realize that whatever privileges they enjoyed as non-citizens or non-Whites is actually because of Democrats and Liberals and moderate Justices on the U.S. Supreme Court last century. This is a part of the hard lessons that many people must learn by fire by force and that both parties are not the same.

Tarriffs. Trump use of tariffs and I have indicated here before is leverage.
A lot of companies do business with America and use the dollar.Some of you are not aware that Uncle Sam can come for you if you paid out a bribe using the US dollar. Ask Adani the richest Indian who was indicted for bribing govt officials to secure huge contracts in aviation, transport and energy in India.

Trump placed a 25% tariffs on Venezuela for refusing to accept deported illegal immigrants. Reliance Industries who are one of the worlds largest refiners of crude oil buys 10-15% of all oil exported from Venezuela. Reliance Industries has stopped buying their Crude over the tarriffs.
https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/indias-reliance-stop-buying-venezuelan-oil-over-us-tariffs-sources-say-2025-03-26/

Only a matter of time before Maduro capitulates.

Tariffs are meant to force recalcitrant govts to comply. He who pays the piper calls the tune.
This is not rocket science.Trump has also been talking about America being exploited and taken advantage of by Japan ,from way back in the late eighties and nineties. "Countries send full containers to American ports which then return empty." If I remember.
Now to the liberals that's a bad thing to say, probably racist.

I love when Trump says stuff that’s certifiably bonkers you reduce it to him playing a tactic or strategy. Ugh 😑

Then you also turn around and say well if he does it, then so be it. As if you would ever have the same energy if a democratic president ever attempted this whether by the “proper method” or not.

I can say with my chest that no matter how well a democrat leads, I wouldn’t support them for a 3rd or 7th term because that would be the death of the US. But you’re okay as long as someone from your party does it. That’s the summary of everything we’ve been going back and forth about on this thread.
You are yet to understand trolling Musk gave out a check to people who had voted last week or signed some petition and were willing to go knocking on doors.
Hus reason for the checks. Media goes bonkers, they advertise the event for free

Draw a line from October 7, 2023. That's the false flag event that justifies Israel's ongoing terrorism.

The targeting of American ships did not begin until after the United States, under Biden's leadership, formed a 10-nation coalition against Yemen and started bombing that poor nation to protect Israeli ships. The argument Biden made was some of the vessels hit were only Israeli affiliated. JD Vance has told us it is mostly European ships most of which are controlled by Israel indirectly.

Subsequently, tensions heightened and calls for a ceasefire were pushed. Trump took credit for it even though he was not in office at the time. When this agreement was reached in Gaza, Yemen announced a cessation of military operations.

A week after this, Israel violated the agreement and began blocking the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza. Yemen announced the resumption of military operations in the Red Sea against Israeli ships only. This is despite the fact that for two weeks to date, no ship was targeted because all Israeli ships had stopped passing through the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea.

Then, two days before Israel announced the resumption of bombing Gaza, Trump began carrying out airstrikes on Yemen, even though there was no threat or targeting of American ships. Again, why JD Vance was worried about how the unnecessary war was going to be sold to Americans who knew Trump ran on being pro-peace.

JD Vance said he was tired of America fighting on behalf of Europeans (he meant Israel). Hegseth called them free-loaders. The whole chat just exposed how much of chief hypocrites they all are and it has to be called out.

Trump is bombing women, children, babies, medics, journalists- rather than instruct Satanyahu to comply with the ceasefire terms. Benjamin bragged about it including about getting Trump to deport people he called antisemites. Americans did not vote for this.

That is why I said all the signal leaks were misdirections. Simply put forward to generate public sympathy and endorsement. Aren't you worried that the democrats who never see anything good in Trump are tacitly endorsing this madness?

That should tell you all you need to know.
I'll defer this to later after I look at the timelines. Those mad Mullahs of Iran are the puppeteers. Iranan ships gather Intel on the merchant ships then pass it on to the Houthi.

When we tell terrorists and evil supporters here that hamas hates Palestinians, they think we do not know what we are saying.

This is Fatah advising the terrorists.
Fatah pays Palestinians families jailed for commuting crimes to Israelis. The more the victims caused by Palestinians the more their families get paid Where does Fatah get his money Foreign aid.
Abbas told off Trump that he would continue to pay the families of his terrorists in jail, irrespective of whether aid was cut off.

Hamas and Fatah are no different, one uses violence and the other uses propaganda and lawfare to delegitimize Israel.

You now see why unbridled sycophancy is terrible! Popular presidents like Clinton, Obama and Reagan never mused about a 3rd term, even though they would have handily won the additional term, because they (and others) believed that no one has a monopoly of leadership.

There is a reason why term limits were introduced after the 12-yr presidency of FDR; one of them being that the U.S. shouldn’t have a cult-like presidency
Oh my , you took the third term seriously. It's just a troll to make liberal heads explode.

How did you continue engaging that post after reading the ABC news link that was posted as overwhelming evidence? Incase you skimmed through it, please read it again and confirm for yourself if any one here would believe that story the way it is, if the same claims were made by Russia.

Lavrov asked the UN and it has been 2 years + since then but nobody responded.

- What are the names of the deceased?
- How did they die?
- When did they die?
- What was the motivation for the killings?
- How did NATO sweep through Bucha by April 2nd and not report any massacres, bodies or killings but then report same the very next day?
- How come Ukrainian National Police said they chased out saboteurs and Russian accomplices but never reported the massacres?
- How do we now have videos of Ukrainian forces pulling bodies into position if those were done by Russia?
- How do we have some dead bodies moving hands like the same crisis actors did during COVID?
- Who watched the Video of Ursula supposedly observing the massacre site? She is the poorest actress in the world - far worse than Gal Gadot.


All these, people ignored to conclude Bucha was massacred so they will hold on to the same daft narrative that Zelensky was allowed to back out of a ceasefire.

Take the new position I've settled for this time around. Just post your truth and ignore stupid rebuttals until the same media they still believe in will have to spell out the truth. I always enjoy all the unlooking they have to do.

I saw people post about Bill Maher the other day but nobody brought up the Fauci conversations that were had in that particular episode. Nobody is quoting the same NYT article about all the lies of Fauci and Collins concerning COVID-19. The same NYT they were so quick to quote in 20-21 especially.
