"I think most of the people here oppose the use of masks because they perceive that it does complicate the targeting of ICE officers."

Then why do police, prosecutors, and judges show their faces?

Explain it to me like I'm seven(ty).

"That supports my point, actually."

Not when you use "will be" instead of "has".

"They will if people keep targeting them with violence."

Some judge from Edisto Beach SC on line #1 for you. She s got a "hot take" on your position.

"Infants and young children born to mothers who were in the country illegally."

As adjudicated by a court, or merely alleged?

"Joe Biden honors the Sabbath?"

Joe has regularly gone to church. Trump hasn't.

"Never committed adultery"

Certainly never bragged about doing it repeatedly.

"never lied"

Why pretend there's no difference in magnitude?

" coveted his neighbors wife or goods"

Again...compared to someone who CELEBRATED coveting (both wives and goods) on a daily basis? (Or, as the joke goes, wives, asses, and wives' asses.

"never dishonored his parents?"

Biden pro-actively spoke radiantly about his upbringing. Trump never gave credit where credit was due.

And why did you skip the commandment about stealing? Too much of a slam dunk to defend?

"Maybe you should read up on those better."

Maybe you should recheck your Math, and retract your claim. And don't forget: if you already violate a majority of the other nine, you don't get to claim #1.

"Is that a litmus test for you?"

I'm pointing out it clearly IS NOT for you, not when you wave the Bible while supporting Trump.

"At least half of them are impossible to know."

Only if you use Republican Math.

"I also don't know precisely how pure any career politician is."

I'd say using the Ten Commandments as a barometer is fair...especially to someone pretending to wave a Bible.

And feel free to join the fun, and name two Commandments Trump follows. Bonus points if you can find one he EMBODIES.

"You're a broken record."

Because you've never answered.

All you have to do is answer once.

Why are you afraid of stating something YOU KNOW is true?

"Here's what people without that kind of experience never understand. Solving complex problems isn't just about logic or backtracking data. It's instinct."

What a riot.

BillJohnson's "instinct" told him Trump would've won the 2020 election, had it not been the theft of ballots mailed to voters. Of course, had that occurred, there would've been tens of thousands of victims.

Now, here we are, five years later, and ZERO people have come forward with that claim, despite the fact they'd have every reason to, especiaiiy after a close election.

Tell us, Bill: what does your "instinct" tell you about the fact NO ONE has come forward validating your theory?

" a mockery of people who take scripture serious."

Name three Commandments Trump follows.

I'm just kidding...name two.

If you can't, and you still vote for Trump...aren't you making a mockery of Scripture?

"You mean like the fake Russia collusion story"

Republicans ADMITTED it wasn't for lack of trying: The Republican-led Rubio Report detailed over 100 contacts between Russians and Team Trump, all while Trump was lying to America, claiming ZERO contacts.

REPUBLICANS called Manafort a "grave counterintelligence threat."

"We found irrefutable evidence of Russian meddling," Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., acting chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said in a statement, directly refuting President Donald Trump's repeated assertions that Russian interference was a "hoax" perpetrated by Democrats.

Better deport Marco!

"Unfortunately, there is a lot of fraud in the SSDI program."

Then why do they never find more than 1% when investigating?

"...we HAVE DIRECT REFUTING EVIDENCE that Trump did nothing wrong"

"What in the blue hell are you talking about?"

You moving the goalposts. First, you changed foreigner to illegal, meaning you had no answer to a native-born taking the job of a longtime legal citizen who went through the process 20 years ago. Then, when asked about HIM SPECIFICALLY, you made up another caveat, this time committing illegal immigration fraud when he entered. So that's TWICE you've ignored the specific question, and made up a different one to avoid an answer.

Back to the original question: is it a NET PLUS when a native-born takes the job of a longtime legal US citizen, who came through all the steps you require to become a citizen two decades ago? Net plus or not?

Because you and Trump are currently saying that's a plus.

'If they committed immigration fraud"

That's not a factor in Trump's equation. It INCLUDES jobs where a native born citizen takes the job of a 20-yr legal citizen.

That's a NET PLUS in Trump's numbers.

"An illegal gets fired/deported and an American takes their job?"

No, not an illegal. A longtime US citizen, after going through the line, and passing the test 20 years ago.

A net plus, or not? Because it's a net plus in Trump's equation.

"WE 100% KNOW are horrible insurance risks as they will are 100% certain to use huge amounts of medical procedures."

That's why every time Republicans sat down at The Heritage Foundation to come up with a national plan, they had to include a mandate for it to balance.

"Rather than charging these known medical disasters for the actual expected cost of their care, the Dems thought they could force enough healthy people into the system to subsidize them without complaining. It didn't work."

Give credit where credit is due: Republicans came up with the idea. But that was back when they were using Actual Math. Now, Trump can claim he's brought in $17 Trillion, and every MAGAt slurps it up without question.

And I noticed you skipped over Republicans repealing the mandate. That's when O'care got repealed.

"that is not how insurance works."

Thanks for telling us you don't understand the equation. That is EXACTLY how insurance works.

ALL insurance is sold with the hope you won't be using it. If too many people are using it, or too many non-users aren't signing up, the insurance company goes broke, or refuses to issue (see home flooding in FL and fire in CA). You've ALWAYS got to have more non-users than users.

"Apparently, accurately predicting the future on this site is against the rules."

Not true at all: I predicted the preliminary jobs numbers didn't pass the smell test, and we should wait for the updated numbers.

You excoriated me, and then DISAPPEARED when the updated numbers came out, and proved me right. I never got banned for that. However, the truth-teller got fired by Trump for releasing the REAL numbers.

"I got suspended from this site for stating the guy that killed Charlie Kirk was a ----"

Don't be silly. You call EVERYONE a ----, like A LOT of closet cases.

" The only way the ACA works is getting healthy people to sign up and then not use the care"

Don't look now ... but that's how ALL insurance works.

" Republicans make up a fake issue out of fake evidence and you expect liberals to act like it is real?"

" Will Trumpy be forced to issue mass pardons at the end of his reign of revenge and retribution terror campaign?"

Yes.

And he'll blame Joe Biden.

"an embargo that's not worked...or at least not worked yet and comes with significant consequences."

Thanks for proving my point #2.

"any thinking person would have known would lead to this bailout."

Are you saying that leaves out Republicans?
