Just to clarify, this is the system that actually pays people. This is the group that sends out the checks that the federal government issues, SS, grants, medicare and several trillion dollars.

Musk is saying that this system is corrupt, that payments go out willy nilly.

The danger is he unilaterally starts putting stop payments on checks or stops issuing checks. On his whim or --------

This could be unfathomably destructive

Lawful and unlawful are meaningless words now

Just a little perspective by the by

It is HIGHLY likely that one of the primary reasons for going after ------- and his stolen documents was the loss of numerous informants that was reported in October 2021. I have a strong suspicion that the true motivation for pursuing ------- so vigorously was because the intelligence agencies had intel that ------- was sharing intel with out adversaries.

You don't know squat about Catholicism. You cherry pick passages, take them as literally as possible to suit your narrative and ignore the rest. If the Bible was a literal document there would be no need for the Catholic Church.

If you don't understand the core teachings of the catholic church that is on you dumbass.

The one consistent throughline of the jesus myth is loving others, turning the cheek, love your enemies, love your neighbors, helping the outcasts, the poor, the sick. There was no hierarchy in that love, that is, simply put, the exact opposite of what jesus supposedly preached.

But, you DO touch on the one joke of religion. You get that one thing right, that it is not literal (to some that isn't even true), so CONVENIENTLY it is open to the myriad selfish and self serving interpretations of -------- like you and vance.

But, again, to think that jesus said love this person, before this person before that person and if you ever get around to it the person over there, well you didn't pay attention to the nuns.

You've been informed and educated. Be a better person.

Truth Hurts

I

Yet another thing I have as told would not happen but I predicted

---------- falls into the category of evil nihilist ---------.

People like him are so blinded by hatred that owning the libs gives them the jollies while our nation collapses.

Basic human decency is evil to them (that is how boaz characterized treating trans with respect-evil) ---------- is of that mindset.

A troll with no soul, no humanity, full of hate for those around him.

But ---------- and his ilk should be listening to me. I have been right all along. I usually am.

---------- and his ilk will not like where our country goes.

The glee that underscores is ---- social post is very troubling. This is not something a sociopath comes back from.

Apparently June is now patriot pride and veteran recognition month

The United States imports oil to meet its energy needs, even though it produces some oil. This is because the amount of oil produced, refined, and demanded can vary geographically.
Reasons for importing oil
Infrastructure
The majority of the infrastructure for producing, refining, and transporting oil is in the Gulf Coast and mid-continent regions. States with high demand for motor fuel, like Florida, Oregon, and the New England states, lack this infrastructure.
Refinery configuration
Many U.S. refineries are designed to process heavy, sour crude oil, which is less common in the United States. Heavy, sour crude oil is often cheaper to import than light, sweet crude oil.
Transportation costs
The cost of transporting oil can affect whether it's more economical to import or export.
Supply and demand
The supply and demand for oil at a specific location can affect whether it's more economical to import or export.
The United States imports oil from countries like Mexico and Canada.

So, for those simpletons who don't understand why we import oil when we are a net exporter it is about location, location, location of the oil, the type of oil and cost of transportation.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, raising tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, will make oil more expensive (it is unavoidable, since we don't have the capacity to make up the difference).

I already saw a spike in gas prices near me.

Get use to it.

I must say that my predictions have been correct. The only way I was incorrect was in the speed in which the destruction is being wrought.

The magnitude of the destruction completed in less than 2 weeks is staggering.

Magat scum cannot conceive of the damage that is being done, if they did, even THEY might care. ------- won't live forever.

Do they realize that they are being set up to accept the removal of the majority if not all of the social safety net? Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, Veteran's benefits?

What is being done will lead to economic collapse if it is not restrained. Look at the stock market since he took office! At least 2 hits-one for the China announcement of DeepSeek and the other on tariffs.

This chaos is unsustainable and it has barely begun.

Wake the ---- up people. Your future is at stake

I am more concerned about ------- getting a taste for killing.

Apparently all sorts of government websites are going dark. A lot of them are science databases

Do you even understand WHY Obama was focusing on removing newly arrived undocumented immigrants?

Because, once they have established themselves in America they gain additional rights and protections.

BTW this is basic ---- and shows that you are a lying, deceitful, ignorant hateful PoS>

Do you even read what you post?

Oh, yeah, NO.

From your link

Carefully calibrated revisions to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) immigration enforcement priorities and practices achieved two goals: Increasing penalties against unauthorized border crossers by putting far larger shares into formal removal proceedings rather than voluntarily returning them across the border, as had been longstanding practice; and making noncitizens with criminal records the top enforcement target

It literally says the opposite of what you contend.

Here I know that is long, let me cut a bit:

"putting far larger shares into formal removal proceedings rather than voluntarily returning them across the border"

You see that formal proceedings language?

Christ you're an idiot.

Even this won't get you to stop

You're a ------- idiot flailing around trying to find some logic in your lies

Face it jeff, you're scum.

You are not man enough to admit you are wrong.

Just plain scum

Illegal immigrants don't have any rights though.

Magat scum are truly the most uninformed, ignorant -------- on the planet.

Facts are kryptonite to magat scum like jeff

Poof jeff disappears

Oh wait, it is NOT arresting them, as that is a process action. Kidnapping I guess would be the proper term.

Jeff you are disgusting.

Again, only if they are being prosecuted. Deportation is not prosecution.

You are soooooo ------- stupid.

sooooooooooooooooo ------- stupid

SOOOO GOD DAMNED STUPID

This is such an obvious ------- lie it is not even funny.

Just play our YOUR position. That an undocumented immigrant does not have a right to due process.

Then how is an individual identified? How is an individual classified as undocumented? How is an undocumented Indvidual's immigration status established?

YOUR position is that ICE can look at someone, arrest them, put them on a plane to Timbuktu

THAT is exactly what you are saying

That is a lie. It is deceitful.

You ever wonder why I despise you so much?

Because of this. You have been informed. Yet you choose to lie.

You're a despicable piece of filth.

You've been informed and educated. Be a better person.

Truth Hurts

---- you ----, take it up with jesus, Vance is ignoring his plain language teachings you ignorant ----

I told you so.

Then you are not paying attention.

He and his minions have a very clear plan for the future of America-Project 2025.

And that plan just covers the first 6 months.

We are in the beginning stages of a devolution that will transform this country in profound ways rarely seen-and those times always towards liberty and justice-1861-1865, 1935, the 1960s

this is the first successful regressive revolution in our nation's history.

You will not recognize our country before too long.

You have been informed and educated. Be a better person.

Truth Hurts

Christ you're an inchoate turd

Where do I call for loving everyone equally?

I reject the bronze age myths of people so ignorant that they shared brushes to scrub their asses with after defecating.

I am throwing his mythological beliefs back in his face showing him to be the hypocrite he so obviously is.

I have zero responsibility to love people who choose to act reprehensibly.

I am free to hate those who act hateful.

It is very liberating by the way.
