Donald Trump obviously know what he's doing and right on track. With the way he is going with the US, it would create fear, uncertainty, bewilderment, etc in the minds of everyone, especially enemies of the state..

Donald Trump, with less than how many days in office, have by far achieved much more than what the ozuor in aso rock is doing for close to two years now, forcefully making Nigerians acclimatize to unnecessary hardship and gnashing of teeth!!!

Trump calls to "clean out" Gaza and move Palestinians to Egypt and Jordan

He is so much better than Harris on Palestine. <sarcasm>
I can't.
None of them even wanted to acknowledge that she called for a ceasefire several times. Was only one of the few politicians to call it what it was. A genocide.
They wanted her to have authoritarian power and single handedly bypass congress to stop the killings.

I’m watching to see if they’ll have the same energy Vance.

This egg price is all over the news. Democrats don't seem to have any major grievance except eggs. It's all a coordinated plot.
What other topic will they rant about this week?
Google search on eggs and it's all a whine fest amplified by the search engines. I pity someone searching for something like how many mitochondria are in an egg, they will have to wade through this whining before they get relevant info.
When people were complaining about the cost of eggs as the reason why they voted for him, it was okay.

Now that eggs are even more expensive and expected to rise, it’s a whinefest? Pls use what’s remaining of your brain if there’s any left.

People literally voted him for the economy and cost of milk and eggs. You’d be very very incredibly stupid to think that they should turn a blind eye if that problem is not resolved like he promised or if it gets worse.

I know people generally tend to ignore your foolishness as you rant like a bot on this thread. But it gets to a point when it’s ridiculous.

You don’t live in America. If Americans want to complain about the cost of groceries, they can. Without you in your ignorance being a dumbass about it.

Wtf is wrong with you?

Move them out and take their land. Him and his sons and their real estate friends have already divided the land according to how they want to sell it and to whom.

New house republicans tax proposals.
1) lowering corporate taxes for corporations. (Their price gouging over the recent years was apparently not enough money for their fat pockets)
2) Federal taxes for homeowners (different from state property taxes).
3) Special tax on single parents.
4) Tax on scholarships. If you’re an exceptionally bright student or maybe a low income student who receives scholarship (from any source). They want to tax your scholarship
5) Repealing the inflation reduction act that Biden instated. This was helpful in bringing down the prices of things as we’ve seen.
The people who hate taxes but voting for more taxes to be imposed on them out here looking like 🤡🤡

Best Chef in the world is a man
Best makeup artist is a gay man
Best hair stylist in world a man

Trans man compete in women sport and dominate all of them.

Now a yoruba gay man is the most beautiful girl in Yorubaland grin grin

Yoruba CEOs are rushing him
They even gave him "Best Dressed Female Award"

Women are just useless in life
Aside from giving birth. Nothing else
Is it the threat of 14 years in prison that is stopping you from being with your fellow men as you so clearly wish to be?

You know change doesn’t happen overnight. Lend your voice to the dissent against the oppression of your community. You might get a few sympathizers. If your voices are loud enough, something could change. And then you be free to openly be sexual with your buddies. You’d never have to see or touch another useless woman in your space ever again

Naija women, you see yourselves. A man came into your territory, dominating you and you're getting jealous of him living the lifestyle you wish you had and the men you wish you had. Can any lady come into men's territory and do what Bob is doing?, I challenge any naija woman.
Naija women, you think you're wise?, you see a committed or married man yet you want to hook him by all means. Don't come for me, face Bob, he is not only your mummy of Lagos, he is also your godmother.


-Kiss the truth!
Are Nigerian women supposed to be competing with him for the attention of the men who like him? If the average Nigerian woman is straight, why would they be upset that some gay men like Bobrisky?

What woman would be interested in the kind of men who find bobrisky sexually attractive?

I think your post is meant to be addressed to the pretentious men who act like they don’t like what they see when they look at Bob. Don’t make it the women’s problem.

Finally, sanity in the USA grin
Do you live in the US?

I’d love to inform you that nothing has changed for these people. They still live the lives they lived before him.
Most of them you’ll go past on the street and you can’t even tell if they’re a different gender from their birth. So that pretty lady you see on the street might have been born male and you will never know unless they tell you.

The only thing that changed is that people who hate them can rejoice at what they feel is a victory they’ve won over them. At the end of the day, he’s using it to keep anti LGBTQ people on his side while he fvks the country over with polices that enrich billionaires and makes the lives of everyday people more difficult.

In one year‘s time, when housing becomes even more unaffordable because of his stupid tariffs against Canada, he’ll say „but look I took LGBTQ rights away. Isn’t that the solution to the country’s problems“?

Next thing he’ll be saying it’s better to rent and pay cash for your rental than to get a mortgage and “owe the bank”. 🫠

Even their billionaire daddy Trump never paid cash. That’s why he was able to trash his business credit and file for bankruptcy 6 times. Imagine if he only dealt in cash. He would’ve lost everything and gone back to Germany where his father is from.

It’s for the coming summer. I haven’t gone yet. I’m sure it’ll be worth it. A colleague who has similar travel tastes as I do recommended it.

😃
IjeBos:
Trip sounds dope.
Was it a foodie resort?
Interesting in how you find it.

I learned about points when I was 27 and wish I had known earlier. It's was a big life/money hack.
Flights were one of the biggest hacks. I have enough rewards/points spread out over various airlines that I can book flights early, whenever I get invited to an event. I can then make up my mind and cancel even the day of the flight without a penalty.

If you can follow the rules you posted, it's worth more than worth it.

Imagine Elon Musk scavenging for points grin grin
Raumdeuter is not poor, he does not want o follow this model
Points are a marginal benefit. You can’t start a business with bank loan without a good credit history. Even if you have the cash, why wouldn’t you use the banks’ money that’s already insured?

Little things like these show you truly don’t know what you don’t know. Even as “small” a benefit as they are, why would I pay thousands every time I go on a trip if my points can cover it at no cost to me? About 6 countries in the last few months and I only paid for hotels like 3 times. That’s a few extra thousands in my pocket instead of paying it when I didn’t need to. I don’t know what you think is funny but it truly shows you’re out of your depth here.

Anyway I’m not interested in arguing about level of wealth. I’m middle class not wealthy. I’m not Elon or 1/100th of his level of wealth. So I find this to be good financial advice. It’s also for the benefit of anyone who doesn’t know. They can pick up a tip on how not to spend money they don’t have to spend. That’s all it is .

,
Get a credit card, start out with something with 0 or a moderate fee seeing you don't travel often. And when you start traveling more, you can upgrade to something that has more perks on it.
Run all your purchases through it and pay it off at the end of the month. (I'm relatively cashless in the US, and credit cards have better protections as well)
Depending on what card you get you can earn points you can use to buy airfare or upgrade flights. (better redemption than redeeming it for cash).
You’re right about this. Excellent point .
I just booked a Mallorca resort vacation for summer. Worth over $5,000 & paid $0.00 because of points.

Still have hundreds of thousands of points (about 350k) left over in my Hilton account for future trips. And I alternate the same way with my Marriot and Hyatt accounts. What sense does it make pay that $5k for a resort stay when I can get it for 0.00 as long as I’m using my outstanding credit?

The credit system is there to serve the customer. It’s one of the benefits of living in advanced society. No need to pay cash and not get benefits for my cash. I understand that people get excited and overspend more than they earn and get into trouble so that’s why some people avoid credit.

1) Live within your income means
2) Earn cash, Pay with credit and pay off the credit before it’s due.
3)Never accumulate debt.
4)Accumulate and save up your points for future rewards, upgrades, free hotel stays, access to luxury lounges on your trips etc. Rinse and repeat.

I believe the gentleman you’re arguing with knows this too. He’s been in America too long to not know. Hopefully the ones who don’t know can’t get a tip or two. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I agree - they tax us so much in here and then pass the cookies to all while complaining of mismanagement.

Each state should take care of self.

Anyway, hoping rain comes because in as much as moi love this weather, I'm a huge fan of rainfall and can't wait to head to Seattle to enjoy rain.
Especially now that Trump is playing politics with aid to California. You can’t take our huge billions that fund over 30 red broke states and tell us we have to bend to your will before we get aid.

Let California keep her taxes and take care of herself. Let every state take care of themselves. I would agree with him on this except I know he’ll insist all states keep paying taxes (isn’t that what makes us united🙄).

States rights only when they want to further right wing agenda.

Even when they or people they know are impacted negatively by his policies, they’re going to be lying to themselves to save face. Or going out of their ways to defend atrocities they wouldn’t defend on a good day. You know it’s more difficult to fool a man than to convince him he’s been fooled. It’s all about “winning the argument”. Nothing more.

I am here to post about eggs because it is fun watching you all bend like a banana. Be bending but don’t break like the promises.

I pray for Trump’s success in Ukraine though. Truly.

All these years of bitter talk about Nigerian immigrants should have prepared you for these kinds of reactions

The rejoicing over what they perceive to be misfortune falling on “abroadians” due to Trump’s administration shouldn’t surprise you.

No they loan them to billionaires who don’t want to pay fair wages to American workers. They make them produce goods and products for their companies at the rate of single dollar digits or cents per hour (if that). The companies turn around and sell said products at over 1000% profit. They get richer, use their money to buy American politicians. Who then pass more laws to favor them.

Arrested immigrants don’t get deported immediately. They have to have their court date and then ordered to be removed by a judge. What’s happening is that they’ll be detained and used for slave labor for the benefit of Trumps billionaire friends. Because slavery is legal if you’re a prisoner in America
