For the record, she was interfering with law enforcement officers who were there to arrest a pedophile from Central America. She had no business being there. That is some sort of mental illness isn't it? Normal people don't do that. She'd be alive today if she never injected herself into a law enforcement operation, ignored lawful demands and drove her vehicle into an ICE agent. Spin it all ya want.
We are not the same, Opti. When you see some sort of police action, you rush toward it and immediately insert yourself into the situation. I avoid it—and I don’t think I need to explain why. I certainly never “orgasmed” over her death, as you pretend. You do a lot of pretending.
Speaking of a “straw that broke the camel’s back” moment, remember when you were pretending that Elon Musk did a Nazi salute on stage? That was when we knew you weren’t a serious person anymore. No reasonable, free-thinking person could possibly believe that’s what he was doing. That was the point when I first brought the term “mental illness” into the conversation—not that you are mentally ill, but that something clearly isn’t right. I think we can all agree on that.
There are different levels of this. At the extreme end (10/10), you have people who believe the Earth is flat or that men can get pregnant. Yet many of them still drive cars, hold jobs, and even raise children. Then you have the pronoun people—the they/thems, he/hims, zers, and its. They’re definitely mentally ill, but I’d put them more at a 3 or 4 out of 10. These are the classic bleeding-heart liberals, probably teaching kindergarten in classrooms full of pride flags while making TikTok videos of themselves screaming.
Then there are people who believe things like “Elon did a Nazi salute,” “Biden was cognitively sharp,” or “there was no caravan of illegal aliens coming across the border.” These folks are in denial of observable reality, which is a milder form of mental illness—but one that can often be cured. I’d put them at a 1 or 2 on the scale.
You might not agree with my assessment, and I’m certainly not a psychiatrist or doctor. I just call it like I see it.Comment -

But isn't it good news that the price of gas was 5 dollars? We are the largest producing gas country in the world so the profits for the US Treasury were astronomical. 10 dollar eggs means the farmers did not need bailouts as they were making big profits. Are you admitting that Biden had a great economy making enormous profits in crude oil and gasoline sales to the world?Originally posted by slewfanComment -

For some perspective. Gas is over US$8/gal here and people are less angry at the govt about it than Americans seem to be. Ya'll been sucking the socialist teat with subsidized gas for so long you don't appreciate how good you have had it.Originally posted by pavyracer

I think it all depends on the other costs. So you have to see the whole picture. Yes, gas is cheaper in the US compared to the rest of the world but this is the carrot stick they give to the voters. The average American has no idea how much things cost to the rest of the world. So if medicine, healthcare, insurance are cheaper in the countries where gas is more expensive then you got to see the bottomline. A family of four in the US with a combined income of $150,000 per year is barely surviving after all bills are paid, but in any other country they would be considered upper middle class. In the US, it's lower middle class just one level above poverty.Originally posted by OptionalComment -
Who are you to decide where US citizens can go? If I want to drive my car in a neighborhood and I'm not breaking any law it is my right to do so. If the operation in MN went so good according to your judgement, explain why Taco forced the man running the operations to step down and replaced him and had the DHS lady in charge removed? If they did a good job they would have jobs now. Even Taco figured out ICE fukked up in MN.Originally posted by DwightShruteComment -

I am not telling anyone where they can go; I’m just saying to use common sense. If you see a SWAT team pull up at a bank in your neighborhood, I am not saying you can't get in your car and park right in front of the jewelry store. Heck, bring your kids along. Make sandwiches. Or, maybe don't. It’s just a thought.Originally posted by pavyracer
The fact that she was killed was no one's fault but her own. She didn't need to be there. She had been following them for hours. She could have done a thousand different things that day, but she chose to interject herself into a situation where armed officers were pursuing criminals. Nothing good could possibly come of that. How stupid can someone be? She made a tremendously bad decision, and it cost her her life. I am not happy she's dead; I’m just calling it like I see it.
I haven't spoken to Trump in a while, so I can only speculate as to why he reassigned him. It was probably just an attempt to alleviate some of the tension. The mayor and the governor in Minnesota are morons and their sanctuary state policies protect criminals and empower individuals who attack law enforcement.
Why does this happen in Minnesota and not elsewhere? Perhaps the leadership bears much of the blame. Do you see people storming into churches all across the country, or just in Minnesota? Hmm.Comment -

It’s wild that both Trump and Hegseth sound so much like Bond villains, although with rapier undertones, since we all know Trump’s stance on consent. He loves bragging about how powerless his enemies are, and how overpowering our brute strength is, relishing in the domineering part of what he’s saying.
The worst part is how he somehow comes off looking bored while spewing his supervillain monologue. It’s like he’s transitioning into Jabba the Hutt before our eyesComment -
The Strait of Hormuz is open — but only selectively.
It remains accessible to any commercial vessel willing to pay a fee of roughly $2 million in Bitcoin or Chinese yuan, provided the cargo is traded in yuan and is not destined for the United States, Israel, or countries aligned with them.
For the U.S. Navy, however, the strait is effectively closed. American vessels are unable to approach within roughly 1,500 kilometers due to the threat posed by drones, short‑range missiles, long‑range ballistic missiles, sea mines, naval drones, mini‑submarines, and fast‑attack boats.
Iranian oil tankers, meanwhile, continue to move freely following the lifting of sanctions.
Around the world, countries are beginning to distance themselves from the United States out of economic necessity. Their populations need fuel, LNG for power generation, food, clothing, medicine, and other essentials. As a result, many nations are reassessing their exposure to U.S. debt, the role of the dollar as a reserve currency, the petro‑dollar system, and the United States’ position as a diplomatic partner and military protector — all while a global trade conflict unfolds.
This trajectory aligns with a vision of American isolationism: the U.S. standing alone, facing economic strain, rising inflation, weakened social programs, and market instability, yet still projecting toughness through rhetoric and symbolism.
China, meanwhile, is positioning itself as a rising global superpower, with Iran serving as a key regional partner and strategic foothold in the Middle East. China has openly stated its ambition to reduce the dominance of the U.S. dollar in global reserves.
Saudi Arabia is increasingly exploring alternatives to U.S. security guarantees, including closer cooperation with Ukraine on drone technology, which it views as more adaptable and effective than traditional U.S. military support.
If a nation intends to run a global security network that underpins its currency and military‑industrial complex, it must operate at peak capability.
This raises a central question: Are the current U.S. leadership figures prepared for this moment?
Will they protect American citizens from severe economic shocks?
Will they prevent oil from reaching extreme prices?
Will they avoid policies that could trigger a domestic economic crisis?
Is the situation truly this precarious?
And, ultimately — how high will oil prices climb when markets open Sunday night?Comment -
RUBIO: "Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living in lavishly in the United States.
Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the "Great Satan."
This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter's legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States.
The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes.

You didn’t buy the Bible.
You didn’t mint the coin.
You didn’t sign up for Trump University or bid on the NFTs or book a room at Mar-a-Lago.
You opted out of every scheme, every hustle, every grift and it didn’t matter.
Trump has grifted his entire life. Now he’s simply taking it.
The State Department transferred $1.25 billion in foreign aid to Trump’s Board of Peace, pulling $1 billion from international disaster assistance, $200 million from peacekeeping operations, and $50 million from international organizations.
Money that Congress authorized for hurricanes and refugees, moved without a congressional vote, into a fund that Trump created by executive order and controls personally.
When reporters asked the State Department about it, a spokesperson said they had nothing to announce at this time.
The Board of Peace has one defining characteristic.
Trump controls it forever. He named himself chairman for life.
No audits. No transparency requirements. No conflict of interest rules.
Countries pay $1 billion into a fund he runs to get a seat at the table.
It has transferred nothing to Gaza, disclosed nothing about its spending, and received $1.25 billion of your disaster relief money without a word of explanation.
When he leaves the White House he keeps the fund. That is not a loophole. That is the design.
