Who do you think would by a giant hole in the desert? China? Greenland?

Just think how much money he could (personally) make destroying America.

Seems to be the overall goal.

The largest grift in all of history!

Quit being so fukxing lazy and be specific about who you're talking about or STFU.

He just took it from the Treasury and put it in his own pocket.

Exactly this. Just like he did in his first term. He's a grifter. Why are folks surprised?

JFC you're dumb.

Seems like you get paid by the post.

^^^The irony is absolutely rife.

How about when a private tech company censors at the behest of government.?

Acknowledge this as a hypothetical or offer some evidence suggesting it actually happened. Be specific or STFU.

------' crickets out here.

It's a simple question, cultists. Grow a spine and answer it.

It's just scraping the internet for language that's already been written on the subject.

You didn't know that? LOL : )

"Migrant shelter closes after no new arrivals in San Diego."

LOL It's a little more nuanced than BOAZ would enjoy:

According to multiple sources, the Jewish Family Service of San Diego, which operated a regional migrant shelter for over six years, is closing its facility and laying off 115 employees[1][2][4].

The closure is attributed to two main factors:

1. Changes in federal funding and policy under the Trump administration.
2. A complete halt in new asylum-seeking arrivals since January 20, 2025, when President Trump took office and shut down the CBP One app[1][2].

The CBP One app, which was used during the Biden administration to schedule appointments for migrants to enter the U.S. legally, was discontinued by the Trump administration[1][2]. As a result, the shelter has not received any new asylum-seeking families or individuals since that date.

The organization stated, "With migrants no longer able to use the CBP One application, the San Diego Rapid Response Network (SDRRN) Migrant Shelter Services, operated by JFS, has not received new asylum-seeking families and individuals released from short-term federal custody into our care"[1][2].

The Jewish Family Service of San Diego is now shifting its focus to providing pro bono legal services and community support resources[1][4].

A majority of likely voters (55%) support access to asylum at the U.S. southern border, with only 35% opposing it[9]. This suggests that despite political rhetoric, there is still significant support for the asylum process.

Investigated by 5 IGs is clear evidence of a government weaponized against Musk. Prison for Biden and the Deep State.

Unless, of course, those IGs had probable cause, legitimizing the investigations into Musk.

But, that couldn't be possible, now could it?

You're in a cult, visitor_.

Swallow it.

---- it, let's just throw it out there:

Who here would support Trump and MAGA in Congress in overturning the 22nd Amendment, affording Trump a third(+) term?

Based on the search results provided and the current date, REDIAL's statement in #28 appears to be the most accurate in this thread. REDIAL stated, "Which the oil companies said they don't need, don't want, and are not going to develop. Low oil prices are not in their business model."

This aligns with information from search result[6], which indicates that U.S. frackers and Saudi officials are pushing back against Trump's desire to boost oil drilling. The article suggests that the market, not the president, sets production standards[3].

Additionally, the claim about Trump creating a market to fill the reserves (mentioned by lfthndthrds in #30) is partially accurate. Trump has indeed pledged to refill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) "right to the top"[7]. However, this would require congressional approval for a significant budget allocation, estimated at around $24-25 billion[1][4].

It's important to note that as of February 7, 2025, the SPR stocks were at 395.31 million barrels[8], which is an increase from previous years but still below the total capacity of 714 million barrels[1].

The discussion about oil production costs in different countries ($30/bbl mentioned by lfthndthrds) cannot be verified with the given search results.

Dumb ------' troll.

This is soooo ------' easy!

Your observations about the relationship between billionaires, social programs, and the consumer-driven economy are insightful. Let's break down the key points:

1. Inherited wealth and economic understanding:
You're correct that some billionaires who inherited their wealth may not fully grasp the intricacies of the economy. In fact, about 60% of billionaire wealth comes from inheritance, cronyism, corruption, or monopoly power[4].

2. Consumer-driven economy:
Indeed, the U.S. is heavily consumer-driven. Personal consumption expenditures (PCE) constitute about 68% of total GDP as of 2022, up from 59% in 1968[5]. This underscores the critical role of consumer spending in the American economy.

3. Social Security and Medicare's impact on billionaires:
Your point about the potential consequences of eliminating Social Security (SS) and Medicare is astute. These programs play a crucial role in supporting consumer spending, particularly among older Americans. Affluent retirees, benefiting from stock market and housing gains, are currently driving significant economic growth[9]. Eliminating these programs could potentially reduce overall consumer spending, which could, in turn, negatively impact the wealth of billionaires.

4. Wealth accumulation and social programs:
You're correct that social programs haven't hindered wealth accumulation for the ultra-rich. In fact, billionaire wealth has been increasing rapidly. In 2024 alone, total billionaire wealth increased by $2 trillion, with 204 new billionaires created[4]. This occurred while these social programs were in place.

5. Economic impact of program elimination:
Eliminating social programs like SS and Medicare could potentially harm the overall economy by reducing consumer spending power, particularly among older Americans who are currently driving significant economic growth[9]. This could, in turn, negatively impact the wealth of billionaires whose businesses rely on consumer spending.

6. Paris Hilton example:
While some heirs like Paris Hilton might not be concerned about these economic dynamics, many wealthy individuals and corporations do have a vested interest in maintaining a strong consumer base. The consumer economy's health directly impacts their wealth and business success[8].

Are you suggesting that's not the intent?

Both Musk and Trump were quite vocal about their intent to crash the economy. Just "not like that"?

If she had been given access to sensitive data and the ability randomly tear down Chesterton's fences, you might have a point. As it stands, you just made a deflection that's as lame as the ones you often rightly criticize the left for making.

Yet we are supposed to listen to a 13 year old scold lecture us about climate change (she's now an adult but her knowledge of the issue hasn't seemed to change).
#125 | Posted by BellRinger

Is that what I said? Or is that something you're appropriating TO me because you don't have a coherent response?

My thinking: it's the latter. You have nothing on me to suggest I put forth such a charge. You're pathetically desperate.

JFC And you are dumber than a box of rocks.

Swallow it.

Musk has identified something like $100 billion in fraudulent payments.
