That post is all truth.

What purpose did your people serve, when Slavery ended?

Cucking white men.

What I'm about to unleash here will definitely get me labeled a racist, but hell, I'm already slapped with that tag just because I fly an American flag.
This is going to piss off a whole lot of Democrats on this platform, but I don't give a single ----.
I really don't.
Everything that has unfolded over the last couple of days in Minnesota involving the Somalis has pushed me over the edge.
I have a burning hatred boiling inside of me for these people, and I know it's not good, not Christ-like at all.
It'll fade eventually, and I'll get over it, but right now, I have to vent.
So here we go...
I want Tim Walz thrown in jail NOW!
No one is above the law!
I want the entire inbred community of Minneapolis deported.
This means Ilhan Omar too.
I want to watch her screaming and crying as ICE puts her in the back of a van.
I don't want to hear that "lispy over the top" accent ever again.
She doesn't belong in Congress.
She doesn't belong here period.
She was only elected because Obama dumped Mogadishu in Minnesota, and she slithered into a district rigged for her to win.
FACTS.
She shouldn't be making decisions or casting votes on behalf of REAL Americans.
FACTS.
There's nothing racist about wanting these people gone from my country.
FACTS.
They serve no purpose here.
They're frauds, gaming the system while I've played by the rules...
MY ENTIRE ADULT LIFE!
I don't want them walking my streets, breathing my air, or anywhere near my children.
The reason this country is spiraling straight to hell is because of illegal immigrants and people from every -------- corner of the globe.
If we don't act now, if we don't wake the --- up, our nation will be destroyed because we pitied and felt bad for these third-world inbreds.
We will become the UK if we don't start acting like the USA.
And I don't want to hear "What Would Jesus Do?" from bleeding heart libs.
Jesus would want us to protect the innocent and uphold justice, like when he flipped tables in the temple to drive out the corrupt who were exploiting the house of God.
He'd cast out these fraudsters and invaders who are defiling our nation, turning our generosity into a den of thieves, and command us to safeguard our homeland from those who come not in peace but to pillage and pervert.
We've let them flood in, leach off our systems, commit fraud like in Minnesota, and erode everything that has made us great.
I'm sick and tired of biting my tongue while liberals enable this invasion.
These people come here, form enclaves, vote in blocks for radicals like Omar, and then dictate policy that screws over the rest of us.
No more.
I want justice.
Real, swift justice.
Arrest the fraudsters, deport the lot, and lock up the enablers like Walz and for dereliction or worse.
This hatred I feel?
It's fueled by betrayal, by watching my country get handed over to those who hate it.
Liberals cry "diversity" while ignoring the crime, the costs, the cultural erosion.
Enough.
If venting this makes me the villain in your eyes, so be it.
But deep down, millions feel the same way, they're just too scared to say it.
Not me.
Not anymore.
America first, or America gone, PERIOD!!

The Democratic Party has officially gone full asylum. Not the good kind with walls and doctors. The kind where everyone's screaming, nobody's in charge, and the guy with the crayon is writing policy.
Here's what they proudly stand for now.
Open borders
Not "secure but fair." Not "legal immigration." Just vibes and chaos. If you even whisper the word border, they act like you personally pushed a migrant off a cliff. A nation without borders is just a garage sale with a flag.
Men in women's sports
Because nothing says progress like destroying women's achievements in the name of feelings. They spent decades screaming about equality just to let a dude with a beard and a vertical jump erase it in one season. Gold medals now come with an apology letter.
Kids making permanent decisions
You can't rent a car, vote, or take a Tylenol at school, but sure, let a confused child make irreversible medical choices. Parents are villains. Bureaucrats are heroes. And if you question it, you're labeled every word ending in ist.
Defund the police
Until someone steals their laptop. Then suddenly they want the full SWAT team, drones, helicopters, and a therapist on standby. They hate cops in theory and worship them in emergencies.
Free everything
College. Healthcare. Housing. Food. Daycare. Dreams. Self esteem. Nobody pays. Nobody works. The money just appears because math is colonial now. Debt is imaginary and inflation is just a conspiracy invented by grocery stores.
Climate hysteria
The planet is dying every twelve minutes. Give the government total control to fix it. Ignore the private jets, beachfront mansions, and carbon footprints the size of Texas. Rules are for peasants, not prophets.
Speech control
If you disagree, you're dangerous. If you joke, you're violent. If you ask questions, you're hateful. The party of tolerance has the thinnest skin in recorded history.
America bad
Everything wrong on Earth is our fault. We're evil, racist, oppressive, and incompetent. Also please fund the world, protect everyone, and shut up while doing it.
This isn't liberalism. This is a cult powered by outrage, feelings, and a complete rejection of reality. They didn't just abandon common sense. They set it on fire, danced around it, and blamed conservatives for the smoke.
I'm not angry. I'm just exhausted watching grown adults clap for ideas that would've gotten them laughed out of a room twenty years ago.
Call it harsh. Call it offensive. Call it whatever helps you sleep.
I call it accurate.

Taken from Facebook.

that can operate without warrants and deport illegal migrants without an immigration hearing.

There, fixed that for you.

You dont know anything about where I live -------.

go ---- yourself..

Luckily, we have TrumpCare, where we will be spending a lot more, to get a lot less.

Like ObamaCare?

One tax rate for income. Period. For everyone.

If you are poor, no one cares. Go to a charity. That's what they are there for. Not from the treasury.

One tax rate, no death tax. Maybe a separate small tax for universal healthcare.

That's it.

If all of us were equal, there wouldn't be rich folks and poor folks.

Not the same conversation and it shouldn't be.

You are talking from a jealous perspective. It's none of your business if someone is rich or not, that's what you don't understand. You need to stop watching everyone else's pockets and looking for free money from the treasury.

Should the Rich folks be paying more, or should the poor folks be paying less?

Neither. Everyone should be paying the same rate. All of us being equal and such...

"Would you rather have 13% of 60k, or 8.2% of $5M?"

Which of those is the fair one?

The fair one is where everyone is taxed the same percentage.

Good deflection Zed.

Boaz, what are Western values to you these days?

How about we talk about the topic of the thread?

This is to ensure that you pay zero attention to the TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS being stolen by the Trump and his billionaire buddies.

As opposed to the attention you are paying to third world Somalis stealing billions of dollars?

I want to hear one of you bleeding heart liberals say it.

Say "Lets keep the criminal Somali's here in the U.S."..

That's what you really want, right? Say it..

I would repeat some of the things that I heard about African Americans from racists but it would have about as much merit as your strawman about Somalis'.

If it's a truth, does it matter if it comes from a "racist"?

We all know the somali culture isnt compatible with western values. They steal for a living there and stealing isn't seen as that big of a crime in their corrupt system.

Why do we allow them here again?

Thank God for Trump.

Also, it was hard to find information about this scandal on the mainstream news sites, in order to even talk about it on this site.

So many reputable sites are banned here, it's hard to even start a conversation with a thread because most common sense sites you cannot start a thread with here.

Perfect illustration of a censoring of speech by a liberal/progressive site.

Just like a progressive, always looking for more money. I feel bad for any idiot who stays in Cali.

That's why we have a Republic and not a democracy. California can keep their madness there and not affect the other 49 states.

That's nothing. Come to Kryspy Kreme HQ's here in NC.

I was having a discussion with a black friend of mine here in Winston Salem. He was like a lot of you, talking about immigration and what Trump is doing. He then pivoted and started complaining about housing prices. Saying how in the hood you couldnt buy a house cheap anymore. He started whining about gentrification and how poor blacks cant afford rent anymore. I said "Who do you think is replacing blacks in the hood"? I asked him to look at all his new neighbors. He actually realized they were almost all Hispanic. I asked him what he thought the results of all that unfettered immigration that Biden did by letting in the rest of the world unchecked. I said, "Did you really think that was going to have no effect on blacks"?

For the first time, I had a progressive tell me I was right.

Immigration isn't at zero. There is a legal way to come into the nation, that way is open. Walking across the border is not open.

This is what I voted for. This is what a lot of Americans voted for. If you liberals think America is tired of our immigration situation, you will lose every time.

Great observation and great question.

Why is it so "great"? Only because you want to refute what I'm saying or "great" because of it's truth?

Whose are they?

Someone in another group I follow.

A lot of people are reacting emotionally to the idea of oil tankers being seized, but most of the outrage comes from not understanding what is actually being discussed.
So let's slow this down and explain it clearly, legally, and step by step.

This is not war.
This is not piracy.
This is judgment enforcement " the same principle used every day when courts seize bank accounts, property, aircraft, or cargo from someone who lost in court and refuses to pay.

1. What Venezuela did (the part that always gets skipped)

In the 2000s, under Hugo Chvez, Venezuela seized oil projects owned by foreign companies, including major U.S. firms such as ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips.

This wasn't a policy disagreement.
It was expropriation:
Contracts were broken
Assets were taken
Compensation that had been agreed to was not paid

That is not controversial. It is historical fact.

2. What the courts decided

Those U.S. companies didn't complain on social media.
They went to international arbitration and U.S. courts " the proper legal venues.

They won.

The rulings were:
Final
Binding
Enforceable

Venezuela lost and was ordered to pay tens of billions of dollars in damages.

3. The real problem: Venezuela refused to pay

Here is the key point most critics ignore:

Venezuela refused to comply with the court judgments.

In any legal system " domestic or international " when a party:
Loses in court
Owes a judgment
Refuses to pay

... the law allows creditors to seize commercial assets belonging to the debtor outside its borders to satisfy the judgment.

This is called judgment enforcement.

Countries do not get a free pass simply because they are countries.

4. Why oil tankers even enter the conversation

Venezuela's primary commercial asset is oil.

Oil moves on oil tankers.

Those tankers:
Carry state-owned Venezuelan oil
Are commercial property, not military or diplomatic assets
Can be lawfully seized by court order in cooperating jurisdictions

This is no different in principle from seizing:
A bank account
A plane
A shipment of goods

Calling this "piracy" is legally incorrect.
Piracy is theft without lawful authority.
This is court-ordered seizure to collect a debt already ruled on.

5. The math everyone avoids

Let's use conservative, realistic numbers so no one can claim exaggeration.
Estimated unpaid court judgments: ~$35 billion
Oil price used: $62 per barrel
Typical large oil tanker (VLCC): ~2 million barrels

Value of one full tanker:
Gross value: ~$124 million
Net value after realistic court-sale discounts: ~$115 million

Now do the math:

$35,000,000,000 $115,000,000 300 tankers

That's where the number comes from.

Not one tanker.
Not ten.
About three hundred.

One tanker only covers about one-third of one percent of what Venezuela owes.

No, claimed to be fake

No, it's been proven you idiot.

Hans, Shut the ---- up.
