nateevs:So what Democrats couldn't do in 12yrs of power is what you want Trump to do in 4 weeks Okay we have heard you and will consider it when it's time. For now we are taking it one step after the other. All those who did nothing should shut up and watch those trying to do something https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/02/07/donald-trump-musk-doge-targets-pentagon-education/78338303007/ |

Ibime:Like the mini or range rover? Let's say their cars break down, why do they still slap a 10pc tarriff on them? |

raumdeuter:Trump had drastically increased the military budget to its highest ever in his first term Only makes sense to make sure that money is well spent. Before the audit he has already saved by axing DEI. 2021: The Pentagon requested approximately $66 million for DEI programs. 2022: The budget increased to about $68 million. 2023: The funding rose to $86.5 million, reflecting a growing emphasis on DEI within the military. 2024: The Pentagon has requested over $114 million for DEI initiatives, indicating a continued commitment to these programs |

bemeruca:Mini is BMW now Range Rover is British. We also avoid British cars cos they breakdown a lot. Even when Nissan moved production to UK, we started seeing plenty Nissan broken down by the roadside. Ain't nobody buying American even if they put negative tariff on it. Know this and know peace. |

ijebosb:Na you add white there. It seems like they are restating their asylum systems for people are are victims of the state. Sec. 2. Policy. It is the policy of the United States that, as long as South Africa continues these unjust and immoral practices that harm our Nation: (a) the United States shall not provide aid or assistance to South Africa; and (b) the United States shall promote the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees escaping government-sponsored race-based discrimination, including racially discriminatory property confiscation. Sec. 4. Refugee Resettlement and Other Humanitarian Considerations. The Secretary of State and the Secretary of Homeland Security shall take appropriate steps, consistent with law, to prioritize humanitarian relief, including admission and resettlement through the United States Refugee Admissions Program, for Afrikaners in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination. Such plan [sic] shall be submitted to the President through the Assistant to the President and Homeland Security Advisor. |

Hilarious. Obama created 300 man USDS to work on his Obamacare initial rollout problems and fix govt IT. He deliberately gave it some autonomy within the Executive Office of the President.It hired from silicon valley too. Biden strengthened it and reverted it's chair to a political appointment. Trump renamed it DOGE. Democrat bid to entrench USDS is biting their butts. https://www.dailywire.com/news/a-doge-origin-story-how-barack-obama-laid-the-groundwork-for-elon-musk USDS became a DEI haven ,hiring people from porn industry and lbgtqa++ activists. It sabotaged Trump first term too. bemeruca,ono raumdeuter Another shortsighted epic failure like Senate approval process of SCOTUS judges |

Ibime:BMW and Benz break down a lot. You buy cheap and smaller cars. Slapping tarriff on cars makes it hard to compete. Make all the excuse you want but allow the excuse of tarriff as well. US cars are now good cars. They have fixed their issues and the last was fuel efficiency. The tarriff made it hard for their cars to compete. Even Japanese cars are struggling because of tariffs https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/manufacturer-news/2019/02/01/new-eu-japan-trade-deal-could-reshape-european-car-market |

bemeruca:Japan ain't struggling here despite tariffs. They have been on the same 10% tariff and have been dominating High end is dominated by Germany Mid range is dominated by Japan Low end is dominated by South Korea and Czech (Skoda) Wherever range you purchase in, Europeans generally follow this formula. Know this and know peace. Every now and then French intersperse the Mid and low range depending on the country where you are. Ford also got some market share in this range and are the only Americans competing, although Jeep is doing small bits. Chevrolet has been wiped out by poor reliability. Fiat is also unreliable and disregarded except in Italy. In super low range, Romania have started coming in with Dacia but their cars were rubbish and rickety although their new cars are looking better. Ssanyong from Korea also competes in super low range with as does Opel (Vauxhall). Those are the 3 main players in super low range. These are the parameters of the European car market, but new entrants BYD and Omoda from China are starting to cause chaos such that it won't matter what the Americans do on tariff. |

bemeruca:Stop voltroning for apartheid boy Elon Musk whose grandfather a Nazi supporter literally moved to South Africa because he was attracted by apartheid There is a reason Elon Musk does not associate himself with anything in South Africa, no philanthropy, nothing. He is simply a butt hurt apartheid boy. Britain and Holland are the colonial powers concerned when it comes to South Africa. Unlike Zimbabwe matter, we have not heard any complaint from them like we did during Zimbabwe issue. Apartheid boy should face front. |

ObaIgwe1:This is the real reason the US is taking actions against that wicked country. The only thing you guys see is white Section 1. Purpose. In shocking disregard of its citizens’ rights, the Republic of South Africa (South Africa) recently enacted Expropriation Act 13 of 2024 (Act), to enable the government of South Africa to seize ethnic minority Afrikaners’ agricultural property without compensation. This Act follows countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity in employment, education, and business, and hateful rhetoric and government actions fueling disproportionate violence against racially disfavored landowners. |

happney65:lol, they don't care and they are not pretending anymore. As far as they are concerned; the "minorities - black and other colors" feeling offended can complain as much as they want, kill themselves or get out of the country. na Dayo and co still think they belong to the same WhatsApp group with Musk and the real MAGA, joining them to condemn DEI up and down, not understanding the true intent or pretending not to know. If Trump can re-appoint Darren Beattie who said “Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work,”, and nothing happened, why would Musk care what anyone will say rehiring by a racist staffer. |

Ibime:You haven't heard or we haven't heard? Even people who are from Nigeria and other African countries are complaining. I am sure they are happy the government is taking their lands without compensation. |

bemeruca:You are quick to make claim of facts being propaganda in US, but when the president of SA tells you a story is a propaganda you still run with the lies. Nobody is taking land from Afrikaners (that you are afraid to call Whites) without compensations. And even if SA is doing that, AU and other sane presidents can condemn it... certainly there is no moral right of condemnation from someone who wants Palestinians moved as refugees to other countries in other for his country to build and claim Palestinians land? |

Ibime:They are not complaining about land reform, but they are complaining about South Africans. That's the point. Now why are they complaining? They moved there and started a business, but the lazy ass were envious and wanted to take over that business. Xenophobia and many other things. They won't even recognize a South American pageant winner because of her father is a Nigerian. Miss South Africa 2024: Finalist Chidimma Adetshina faces xenophobic backlash Born in South Africa to a Nigerian father (Igbo) and a Mozambique mother, now naturalised South African, Ms Adetshina's participation in the pageant has been met with criticism. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWlF4lrf1Fg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxVVBWodDr0 |

Ibime:You are saying they are not complaining, they are happy for their land to be taken without compensation. 😂😂 The point is you are not safe in South Africa ones you are successful or doing well. They will come for you. White South Africans and other nationals in that country. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG4wRIRah30 They are complaining and they are also dying as a result of this. |
