  1. I am surprised, but McConnell did filibuster his own bill when Obama was president so maybe I shouldn't be surprised.
  2. it probably would have helped biden politically but if it's a conservative wishlist then I guess I'm glad it's dead
  3. if you wanted to cross the US border illegally, which option would you choose: 1) go when government officials are saying the borders are open or 2) go when government officials are not saying the borders are open
  4. I don't know.
  5. I think it's real but would be way less if the GOP stopped falsely advertising open borders for the cartels.
  6. In the literal sense they're not open. Even the GOP tweets out the number of border apprehensions and narcotics confiscations which are both antithetical existence proof to the notion that borders are not open.
  7. I think one of the biggest issues in immigration is politicians proclaiming falsely that the border is open. These politicians have voluntarily become the cartel marketing department and have obviously impacted the flow of migration toward the US.
  8. There hasn't been unchecked immigration over the last 3 years.
  9. I think it's not w good intentions though, I think it all stems back to Trump not hating immigrants enough for blonde skeletor
  10. I didn't vote for Biden or against Trump because of tarrifs so I'm not a hypocrite per esweig
  11. Trump didn't enact tariffs for the reasons you typically would hear for enacting them. 84 is right, Trump is an idiot. He did it because he's under the misguided perception that having a trade deficit means you're losing so he was solely trying to change the trade deficit numbers
  12. technically he takes advantage of everyone and everything, the government happens to fit in those categories.
  13. Biden is replacing John Kerry with John Podesta for this Climate envoy position. Trolling QAnon.
  14. I did feel like a lot of it was the senators trying to shame or embarrass the companies into supporting their bills. I guess where I kinda lose it is..... yall are the senate, pass the **** if you want. personally I don't understand why these people who are obviously not supportive matter. One of them even said if it was law they'll comply.
  15. Fair statements on ol' Lindsey, I'm definitely no defender. He was good in this hearing thought. I don't think I've heard any mention of Elon Musk at all yet but I have been multitasking.
  16. There's a hearing on C-SPAN radio right now I'm listening to in the senate regarding child exploitation on social media with CEOs from major companies..... credit where credit is due..... Lindsey Graham is slaying these d bags
  17. the guitar solo in strangle hold sucks
  18. Personally I'm really looking forward to Jack Poso's Ted Nugent Eras (Errors?) tour. My 2 favorite eras for uncle ted are crapping his pants to avoid vietnam and also drinking his own urine in preparation for Y2k all that said Fred Bear is actually a pretty good tune
  19. I learned a lot about Thomas Jefferson by listening to a free series on Audible "Greatest Courses" or something like that about the Greatest Presidents and it was by Alan Lichtman https://www.thegreatcourses.com/courses/great-presidents IDK it Audible still has it free but I think Oblong would love that series, it was really great
  20. Statues aren't supposed to teach history. They're supposed to display reverence to a figure or object that may not even be historical. If the figure or object is no longer revered there's no need to continue revering it
  21. if we're looking to literal statues for history education we got bigger issues my daughter has been learning history from books and teachers and they seem to have a lot more awareness than statues
  22. Lot of rumors about Harbaugh potentially hiring Kapernick as a coach now that he's the Chargers coach. That'll be an awesome something.
  23. I think the constitution has qualifications for being president, not for running for president. My uniformed opinion is she's eligible.
  24. She is definitely turning up the attacks on him. Good stuff. We'll see what the greatest and best counter puncher anybody has ever seen does in response
