re: Trump apparently does not have control of rogue CIA factions in Ukraine.
Posted by trinidadtiger on 3/31/25 at 6:37 pm
How does this put the president in an awkward position?
One, Putin knows all this and sees Trump trying to end it
Two, seems like a beautiful out of us to pull out with no strings.
On another note, we pull that support, ukraine will crumble quickly.

The 4 biggest items in the federal budget are social security, Medicare, defense, and debt servicing. Unless we significantly cut some of that, everything else is just rounding errors for the most part. We can't balance the budget just by cutting discretionary spending.
Ironically, thats EXACTLY where the savings are, with little impact to the actual services. Probably close to a trillion dollars.
Its why politicians on both side use that often mentioned quote.........and the unknowing public screams "dont throw gradma off a cliff".....and they continue to thief as usual.

This is what makes everyone's blood boil. Why are non-working illegals eligible for taxpayer-funded benefits?
Remember the children in cages. That was a publicity stunt to enable the continued importation of kids.
You see they changed the status of the kids to "refugee" that way they got cash payments.
This is how sick they were. By ensuring little illegals got cash, they ensured the cartel got their fee.....by the US govt itself (by giving cash to little refugee kids handlers). The frickin US federal govt, (through a third party) was paying the cartel to traffic kids.

This is EXACTLY what I mean, it was to protest historical monuments, but her enemies twisted it into southern monuments and ran with this story. And low info posters like this ran with it hook line and sinker.
The same one who scream about rinos on here daily......or the ones eating up the false stories the rinos spread about her. Just willing sheep in a man's game. You bess stay on the porch, the men are playing this time.

I saw her in an interview where she mentions how the left has "Positioned" her as some loon to discredit her because they fear her, and its true. And not just the left but the rinos as well. Spoke at length about the money on the take and how uncomfortable she makes them.
Seems some on here have bitten that shiny object hook line and sinker.
Its amazing, they will take clips/quotes of Trump out of context and the board defends him, yet they do the same to her......and you buy the tales.
We need more of her in congress not less.

Here in Trinidad a lot of the public buildings that are a few stories tall have the staircases "open air" next to the elevators, not some staircase "esthetically" hidden down the end of a hallway.
I rarely meet fat people on the steps :cheers:
My neighborhood is also not "suburban zoned". I walk to the local grocer, farmers market, gym, local govt complex for mail, taxes, election enrollment, courts, etc. The local hardware.....about six or seven bars, couple restaurants, etc.
Its just more convenient to walk than to get in the car and drive like I had to do in a gated community in the states.

I agree Grumpy.
The big deal about the director's son "calling her out", what nonsense, he knew what he produced and specifically chose an actress who was not white as well. He thumbed his nose at the core audience and got his arse burned.
If you dont want a dog that bites....dont buy a pitbull. :lol:

We have heard about all the people working from home. Some who worked in DC from home......but actually did not live in DC.
They came across one individual who had a job in DC but had "designated" his workplace as someplace in the West. So for six years he worked in DC but his official workplace was in the West. Sooooo, he was on travel expense for six years while he worked in DC. He charged rent, car, food, laundry, everything to his expense account.

KCT,
I believe they will have a lot of the structure, both human and hardware, in place or plotted, it will be up to the actual agencies to then carry out the remainder of the recommendations.
Then the big battle in the fall when an actual REAL budget, not a CR will have to be passed.
An interesting play will be with Congress and the agencies. Congress approves the budgets, and someone articulated on here better than I, but in the 70s they also passed a law that said the money HAS TO BE SPENT, regardless if its just tossed out the window. Before that the executive branch had a say as to approving the actual programs it was spent on. Now that the executive is refusing to waste it, lets see how congress reacts.
But to your point, they are not just reccomending, a lot of it they are working with the agencies to fix as they go. They cut out 2.3 million federal credit card holders.

A few thoughts:
Some very smart businessmen from different sectors ideal for tackling the various departments they are working on. Genuinely love the country.
The absolute disaster of how to run 535 different departments all in silos, archaic computer systems, fatally flawed in organization with rudundancies throughout.
The internal and external fraud has to be at least a trillion, before you even cut out the nonsense of unnecessary spending.
This is a reflection of our congress work and its horrific.
Lastly, it truly saddens me our govt is this much of a mess and our govt spends all its time trying to screw each other over petty stuff while Rome is burning.

Congress needs to fix this shite anyway. They've created a voter registration system that makes it simple, easy and with zero risk for a non-citizen to register to vote.
In several states they have done the same. In cali you register when you are at the dmv. Then they use this as a mailing list to mail out mail in votes.
If we simply had paper ballots, same day voting, and an ID when voting, millions of illegal votes go out the window. But the govt, both sides have let the states do what they want for so long now....such a waste.
re: Myanmar Quake About 'Trump's Devastating Cuts'
Posted by trinidadtiger on 3/29/25 at 2:09 pm
Their dictatorship wasted billions building a "new capitol" over the past 20 years to build monuments to itself.....instead of saving some money, knowing they are in an earthquake region and have been for centuries.
This new "capitol" is where most of the damage was done. Ironic eh?
Its the same with most of these 3rd world countries, they waste money and steal, KNOWING relief organizations will pay for things they really need. Those days are over, perhaps the people will rise up now and say enough.
Recently myanmar asked the UN to help them against the rebels that are ripping the dictatorship a new one on the battlefield. Imagine that, and of course the UN is saying they will help prop up the despots.

Bunk,
You do realize that a visa has limited rights in the US, and the govt is well within their rights to search all your social media. I highly doubt she just wrote one innocent paper and was picked up.

No hears the problem diego, its all fun and games while foreigners celebrate a fcking terrorist organization that cuts the heads off innocent women and sticks their penis in the mouth of the head for videocameras.
Then an America that believes freedom does not give you the right to celebrate that on our soil takes a fckin stand.
THEY ARE A GUEST, THEY SHOULD BEHAVE LIKE A GUEST NOT TROUBLEMAKERS. They want to protest go back to gaza, plenty of fresh air, hopefully she can keep her head attached.
