Look I know what I said. Seriously though, once Trump leaves office in the future, I do fear things will go back to status quo and people will once again go back into their bubbles minding their own business.
there have been 12 government shutdowns since 1981. normally, it occurs when the opposition party controls either the WH, senate or house. it takes a world class idiot with a jaw dropping, staggering level of sheer incompetence in order to accomplish such a disgraceful achievement, but if anyone is not up to the task of being president. itâs trump. i just moved him to the bottom 5 of WOAT presidents. he knocked warren g. harding out of his spot.
hereâs the WH statement claiming itâs the democrats fault that trump doesnât know what heâs doing and created this clusterfuck.
lolâŚso many falsehoods. the gop is using CHIP as a bargaining tool. in fact, they refused to do anything about CHIP long before they reached this point. after all, gop donors come first.
trump keeps tweeting about this which isnât entirely true
as he noted back during the obama administration shutdown.
which is true. active-duty military personnel are essential and âexceptedâ. the military will still function. which isnât to say there wonât be hardships. interestingly, during the last government shutdown. obama and congress agreed to a bill in the middle of the shutdown that paid all active-duty and many civilian employees and contractors. trump and the gop could do the same during this shutdown, but apparently theyâre against it.
damn! the disrespect! lolâŚshe just snatched trumpâs soul out of his body and set it on fire with napalm.
So my coworker, first time visiting Australia, gets off the airplane, and in his own way, loudly exclaims to his traveling buddies, âWhere can I get a Fosters!â (not a question, more of a fact in his mind)
Everyone kind of stopped and a polite Australian man walked over and quietly explained to him no one drinks Fosters here.
I was at Hawaii for work this week. I talked to them about it.
It was a GUI error. Alarm Test was right next to Real Threat in a regular menu. It was a badly designed GUI, possibly very old with no money for maintenance or to the lowest contractor type of thing.
Oahu would be mostly destroyed if any ICBM hit Pearl Harbor and definitely all of Honolulu. The other islands would be safe from virtually any blast.
The fallout would usually travel South West in the winds, although you never know with wind, it could hit Kauai or Molokai and possibly Maui.
Then after the fallout lands in the ocean, the giant cyclone of currents west of the big island may catch a lot of that radioactive dirt and it would be spread around to the islands near by via normal tides.
Eventually it would be diluted in the Pacific and relatively small amounts would reach the shores of all of the continents and most islands.
The radiation would also be gobbled up the food chain similar to Mercury.
Yea, giving Warren Gs a bad name. Teapot Dome scandal. After the boring ass Gilded age, I was ready for something better and that first 30 years of 1900 were amazing.
Because it illustrates the degree of disconnect between the concerns of the type of people who socially influence the President, and the rest of us who have to live in the real world? Ignore Ryan Adamsâ dumb rant and read the complaint heâs quoting.
Mother of pearl is actually a legit material used for caviar spoons. It is tradition to use mother of pearl as opposed to metal or plastic as they can spoil the taste.
The disconnect is with people like Ryan who react to outlandish things without doing their research.
The guest has a valid point, itâs laziness to serve caviar with plastic.
Thereâs nothing salient about that point at all.
Norway is better than Haiti in most objective measures. Race is irrelevant.
It sucks that Africans, as an example, are stuck in shithole nations, and as a result theres millions of black folks who suffer because of it. But, that has nothing to do with race, and everything to do with government and culture.
Sure, but whatâs unique is that this president is governing from a group of for-profit businesses he runs which constantly surrounds him with these people.
Nothing against mother-of-pearl, just that when your hierarchy of needs is so thoroughly sated that a gauche serving spoon for the caviar is what triggers a moral outcry from you, you may not be the type of person most in need of access to the halls of power. Which is exactly what Mar-a-lago is in this administration.
The conditions that fostered a history of shitty governments in Haiti were predicated on race. Given that those shitty governments have been a follow-on effect of racism, punishing people born under those shitty governments just reinforces the effects of that racism.
Note also, again, that this is the diversity visa program. The entire purpose of the program is to be more inclusive than our merit based visa programs. It isnât exactly like he picked a poor predominantly white country to dump on or tout the virtues of bringing in people from well-to-do predominantly non-white countries. Would have at least been a better look for him if he had.
Long story short, despite holding a green card and already been cleared of the incident in question when he was 17 years old, ICE still nabs em.
Like⌠WHY?
Niiiiiiiiiice, not even white people are safe.
The best that could come from this, is all the illegal polaks in the USA who cheer for Trump get fucken sent back to the motherland.
Holy shit, that would be glorious.
Oh and the answer to your question⌠Because they can. US Gestapo.
In the end, do you want to reward people for their merit, or for their victimhood?
Forced diversity is nothing more than bigotry of low expectations.
If someone wants to move to the US, let them prove their worth. Race is irrelevant. This how it works in the countries Trump wants to model his immigration plan off of.
