The American Enterprise Institute is run by fascists, for fascists.
They're getting exactly what they have always wanted.

"The government choosing not tonpromote nonsense ideas on their websites is not a violation of freedom of speech -------."

Regardless of any legal violations, you asked which sites is the government shutting down for allowing too much free speech.
The answer is still government sites.

One "platform" the GOP is trying to shut down for allowing too much free speech is a thing called "Science":

More than 1,900 scientists and engineers have signed a letter saying they "see real danger in this moment" as the Trump administration slashes federal support for scientific research.

"The quest for truth " the mission of science " requires that scientists freely explore new questions and report their findings honestly, independent of special interests," the letter says. "The administration is engaging in censorship, destroying this independence."

I absolutely agree that it should not be the case that trans women come to dominate all women's sports.

But if it were up to Republicans, Title IX wouldn't even exist, and there wouldn't even be women's sports.

"So, 2,000 new US jobs producing washing machines - given the 4x multiplier due to the propensity to spend, this 100K job produced $400K in economic benefits - and this is just the direct jobs."

So you only incurred a loss of $415,000 for the taxpayers. Not $715,000.

"All told, after 2 years, even the $800K is offset."

Except it's not offsent, because if people still had the $800,000 in their pockets, the 4x multiplier effect would show the "Return on Investment" of NOT imposing the tariffs comes out to $3.2 million.

"So if tariffs = BAD in snoofy math, why does every country place them on our goods?"

Not all tariffs are bad. These tariffs are bad. They're too big and they're too broad, much like your mom. Blanket tariffs are already crippling the global economy, just like the Hawley Smoot Tariff Act did.

Except it's a much more global economy now, and we are also losing the pre-eminent position we built up in the world in the aftermath of the Great Depression and the Smoot Hawley Tariff Act.

Nobody can explain why people like you cheer for America to give up our leadership role. You certainly can't explain why you want that.

"For an illegal suspected of being a gangmember? No, they do not deserve due process."

I'm curious if you have the balls to consider yourself a fascist.

"Which platform is the GOP trying to shut down for allowing too much free speech?"

Every Federal Government web page is being censored directly by the Trump administration.

Men are better at chess too, Yav. There are differences between the sexes.

As I've said many times, I think it's up to each sport to decide how those differences should be considered for transgender athletes.

It shouldn't take an Act of Congress. But then again, the MLB Antitrust Exemption does take an Act of Congress, so maybe that's just how petty we are about Sports. Though I just looked it up and the MLB Antitrust Exemption was actually decided by the Supreme Court, who ruled the Sherman Antitrust Act doesn't apply to Major League Baseball.

Unfortunately, the legitimate concerns surrounding this issue have been utterly co-opted by bigots.

"So you agree that tariffs are needed - you just disagree on the size and scope? Please clarify."

This didn't clarify it?
"To Republicans, this makes sense. Spend $815,000 of taxpayer money, to create one sub-100k job, making washing machines."

That's a stupid idea, because of a thing called Math.

My opinion of the tariffs can be found by looking at how the stock market reacts. And you can pick any stock market you like, in this case.

Why don't you agree with the market?

While the tariffs did lead to the creation of 1,700 to 2,000 new jobs in US washing machine manufacturing, the increased costs borne by consumers meant that the creation of each job cost roughly $815,000.

To Republicans, this makes sense.

Spend $815,000 of taxpayer money, to create one sub-100k job, making washing machines.

"That is why pretty much why every country in the world places tariffs on our goods."

So you're just not going to consider the size and the scope of the tariffs, and how they might impact the domestic and global economy.
Didn't think so, but thanks for confirming.

"It was his only redeeming quality."

Agreed.

He traded that for the Orange Kool-Aid to try to get his wife to put up with him.

It didn't work.

"Due process is for those who have been charged with a crime. It does not apply to deportation."

JeffJ has been saying for decades that he is an armchair Constitutional Scholar.

It is not entirely evident that was a lie.

"you are stating now that tariffs will not protect American jobs?"

Do you think there can be differing things that tariffs accomplish, depending on the size and scope, or is that another thing you can't bring yourself to think about?

"So you supported keeping the status quo until the US slips into bankruptcy?"

We're slipping into bankruptcy faster than ever because of what Trump is doing.
Not that you can understand why.

"It's how you wanted to present yourself, as just one of the guys"

Yep.

He's the kind of guy who whips out his phone and shows you his daughter in a bathing suit.

"Burke had arrived in the US during the Biden administration, only to become one of 32,809 people to be arrested by Ice during the first 50 days of Donald Trump's presidency. Since February, several young foreign nationals have been incarcerated in Ice detention centres for seemingly little reason and held for weeks, including Germans Lucas Sielaff, Fabian Schmidt and Jessica Brsche. (Brsche, 26, spent more than a month in detention, including eight days in solitary confinement.) Unlike these other cases, Burke had been trying to leave the US, rather than enter it, when she was detained for nearly three weeks."

Republicanzs, tell us about the tremendous cost savings to US taxpayers by having these 32,809 people arrested and incarcerated without even being charged with a crime.

Thanks.

"Never seen so many raetards in one place in all my life."

Attend the parade. You'll form a critical mass of Trumper ------- like yourself!

"I don't talk about what my wife and I do in the bedroom."

Not any more.
Not since the failed new persona attempt.

Trump was lying when he said the tariffs are here to stay?

Just like that episode of Gunsmoke where Matt Dillon has to threaten the innocent, wrongly fired lawyer for his Thug boss.

They can't accept that any woman is competent at anything.

Every successful woman slept her way to the top.

No exceptions.

"So when are the men going to start complaining that short men can't compete fairly against big strong men?"

This is actually why Joe Rogan and Andrew Tate exist.

So that all the guys who peaked in high school can still feel like they're important.

Funny how so many of the guys who peaked in high school are woman hating Trumpers.

His wife voted for Trump. You can feel bad for her but she's a wretched harpy.

"At some point you were here posting about that you received head from your wife."

His Dutch Oven posts were even creepier.

Really tells you everything you need to know about the guy.

Probably helps understand why dentists have a 3x higher suicide rate.
