1862?

Or are you talking about Mississippi which Democrats passed a law that made it legal for women to own "property" ie slaves?

Make slavery great again!

They seem to be doing just fine with what they have.

Same with meat packers ... restrict the meat packing, and you kill off the meat production.

This is the goal of environmentalism, in the 2000s, you don't need to stop X production, you stop X processing with regulations and government "oversight".

I'd imagine if oil companies needed more refining capacity, they would build more refineries.

If the US was a free market. But no, regulations are the issue.

You can't build them or run them in California, infact they are leaving California.

The Exxon CEO says it used to be a crude problem, but now its a refinery issue. (middle east now refines more as a percentage)

So what has America done in the last 20 years, it produces more and refines a little more, idk if thats a Trump issue or not, certainly not in California.

Imported refined fuels (2005 > 12% of consumption |2026 ~5.5% of consumption)

America is better prepared for Gulf oil disruptions than it was 20 years ago. The US might not even see any changes. But RoW certainly will, but Trump did warn about this to the Eurpoeans. But they don't seem to care.

China's potential vulnerability as a superpower is similar to India's problem.

As I have stated this is the primary purpose of the GulfWar to disrupt oil/gasoline China (major), and India (minor ) (resources). Secondly to take out any nuclear threat Iran might have.

You might not realize it but the US is in a Cold War with my homeland Chyna.

And Roman Catholic Joe Biden commuted the death sentences of every federal convict on death row, except for three prisoners.

Thats stupid. liberal sentencing (10 years for killing your father) let prisoners out of prison early, or because of COVID ... this is what it gets you more mayhem.

The purpose of prison isn't to rehabilitate, its to get those that broke the social contract off the streets so they don't cause more havoc.
This is not something todays Democratic Socialist want, what they want is to abolish the cops, abolish the prisons, abolish all the things that make America, America.

Its funny whenever a J6er breaks the law its a hundred posts complaining about early releases.

I guess I don't completely understand the purpose, this is covered by the Feds.

Earlier today, at the federal courthouse in Brooklyn, two criminal complaints were unsealed charging Cornelius Shannon and Arturo Hernandez with violations of the TAKE IT DOWN Act, which was enacted one year ago and prohibits the nonconsensual publication of AI-generated digital forgeries (deepfake) pornography. Shannon and Hernandez allegedly posted thousands of images and videos that appeared to depict real people nude and/or engaging in sexual acts. The victims included actresses, singers and political figures. Hernandez also posted hundreds of depictions of non-public figures appearing to engage in sexual acts. Hernandez was arrested today in Bedias, Texas, and will be arraigned in the Eastern District of New York at a later date. Shannon was arrested today in New Jersey and will appear this afternoon in Brooklyn before United States Magistrate Judge Peggy Cross-

Birx basically blamed Trump for everything over 100,000 deaths.

Democrats were correct in their criticism of her, she never corrected President Trump's misinformation during live press briefings.
Her presence also lent a "veneer of scientific credibility" to what Democrats thought were dangerous administrative policies.
Finally the for the win she only spoke out after she left the administration, when it was no longer personally or professionally risky, and needed to deflect from any criticism she might face.

Using Brix as evidence isn't actuary science its political hogwash.

You doubt the red state favoritism thing with the PPE? They did it at the very beginning of covid.
#101 | Posted by Chantresse

He spoke about favoritism, but the policy was let the States handle getting their own PPE.

This enabling California and New York and larger blue states to outbid other State do to size orders and personnel, typically Red States.

Red states suffered higher death rate which has been attributed to low PPE supply and usage.

There's "pathetic" and then there's "Trump Pathetic."

The continuing resolution, or "CR," was announced Sunday by Senate Appropriations Committee Chair Susan Collins, R-Maine, and Vice Chair Patty Murray, D-Wash. It would keep funds flowing at existing levels until Dec. 11.

Congress is just too lazy, probably the President as well to produce a new budget every year, so the Us goes through these CR deals, its not a way to run a country.

To say nothing of the vile, onerous ---- that will be funded=arch, ice, war, weaponization of the DoJ.
~ TruthNLies

Do you even read the articles you post?

Murray said the bill fixes issues Democrats had with the House-passed version and "rejects Trump's frivolous war spending wish list." She said it closes "loopholes" for the administration to transfer funds from existing programs to Border Patrol, which she said "desperately needs reform, not more money." And she said it blocks implementation of a proposal by the White House budget office that would "allow Trump officials to cancel grants at any time for any reason."

What a ridiculous statement.

That's what the NYT claimed they found ...

#51 | Posted by lfthndthrds

So what, everyone knows that when the NYT doesn't agree with the Lumper narrative, it must support Trump, at least until it agrees with them.

The NYT has become very pro Trump.

I haven't seen FakeAzure post before, but is this a new kind of Lumper idiot?

It was a year after the pandemic started before he was president.

Yeah but I think they delayed releasing the vaccine so Trump wouldn't get credit.

The move by Pfizer continues the company's push to publicly distance itself from the presidential race.
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/16/pfizer-coronavirus-vaccine-authorization-election-429797

So the vaccine and the politicization of the vaccine didn't start under Trump.

At that point people had made up their minds about Covid.

They made up their minds when they were mandated to take the vaccine, or they couldn't go to work. Also the false narratives about "you won't catch COVID if you take the vaccine". To his credit Fauci, from his diary, was against such statements.

Also this was really stupid

I'm far from an expert on this, but this seems like a 'no s*&^' kind of directive.

Did you run it by our resident expert FrownHack? He seems to think Trump is giving it to CA.

Amazing how even that can trigger some of you.

Not really that "amazing" is it? With these overly sensitive morons?

Come on Ebs just say it, you were trolling and you knew you'd get a few trout!

Trump thought Fauci was a hero.

How was Trump supposed to know how much he was lying?

Why did Trump give that "twerpy little fascist" a Presidential commendation on his last day in office?

Because he was lied to and didn't know it, thats how lies work.

This isn't complicated, its similar to how you lie on your resume Alexa, and then get caught and lose your job.

Why did the company give you the job, Alexa asks ... idiot .

Fauci never lied about a thing.

Fauci publicly stated, "I had nothing to do with closing schools!"
Fauci in his diary stated, "I got NY and CA to close schools".

The two parties are the After Birth of America and were exactly what George Washington warned about at the birthing.

The geographical nature of representation is why there are only two parties.

Again I have stated before if you want more parties you need to change what representatives represent (land or ideas).

Both are to blame.

Although one could reasonably argue FDR, and LBJ were the root cause of todays debt.

The creation of SS and Medicare is why the debt is so large, entitlements are 2/3rd of the US budget.

"Two parties have ruled the US since its birth."

This is true, DonorBot with his inability to see beyond today's party's. This is a mental malfunction of todays Lumper

The Democratic Party is about 198 years old (founded in 1828)

This is true, a bunch of slave owners gathered around and said how can we keep our slaves.

Maybe, but if we circle back to the DSA platform, isn't that way worse? Constitutionally?

DSA loves America so much it has to change it to be unrecognizable.

Do they want to change this?

LOL Lumper logic,

The river is dry,

Trumps trying to kill CA.

Lumpers like HackAShack are idiot, Eberly was onto something.

I enjoy reading Gaslighter think this means anything, any consensus on what the "change" should be?
