My point: it is NOTHING like it was before.

The right wing media seems to be inventing facts solely for political purposes.

As I watch this country tear itself apart I can only be happy I'm financially and emotionally secure and nearing the end of my life: the future of America looks to be a steaming pile of shit and not a place I'd want to welcome a new child of my own creation into.




Don’t be so glum. What Trump doesn’t fix President Vance will have 8 years to get done.
War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength

"Which" Vance are you talking about?

The earlier, "real" guy who disliked Trump and what he stood for, or the opportunistic stooge who glommed on to the oaf and gives lip-service to the MAGA playbook in order to ascend politically?

Vance is a smart guy, and he has potential to be a decent leader...someday...if he gets off the Trump crazy train.

Yeah, as in The Wizard of Oz someday we munchkins will be singing "Ding dong the witch is dead" because Trump will not live forever: gotta hope when he dies the MAGA extremism dies with him and that politics and politicians become more reasonable and moderate.

Mostly led by Trump, though he adopts nonsense by some of them, on top of his own invented nonsense.

Word is some generals and admirals are seeking outside lawyers depending on what this meeting is about vs their own oath to the Constitution.

Heads will roll unless they get on one knee and kiss the oaf's ring...

Effect of change of H-1B visa

Quote:
... other countries do want them: China, Germany and other nations are rolling out new incentives to scoop up the same talent the U.S. is now pushing away.

Economists warn that the U.S. risks a brain drain that could undermine its global competitiveness. We’re losing the engineers, doctors and researchers who drive innovation and keep industries afloat. This isn’t just about tech or factories — it’s about the collapse of vital industries....


MAGA dullard's clap with joy.

To see the likely end result of such policies we need look no further than one of my favorite films, "Hard to be a god."

Watch as we too descend back into the Dark Ages.

Trump just sent emails to many employees of the Federal Government pointing out that Democrats refusal to pass a bill that does nothing other than keep the government open is the sole reason we are presently in the shutdown. As usual, the Dims are digging a deeper hole for themselves. They know it’s true, so they are going after Trump with ‘sending that type of email is unprecedented’. The Dims are trying to use the scraps of leverage they have to force the Repubs to keep some Obamacare handouts which are set to expire. As AZ would say, they are playing right into Trump’s hands. Now Trump will find whatever Democrat/Liberal/Progressive programs that ARE supposed to exist and hamstring them, while of course using the Democrat created shutdown as a shield.

And make no mistake about this one, there is a ‘clean’ bill to keep the government open that Democrat Senators are blocking.

Democrats are right about the fact that the promise to negotiate won't be any better later when the continuation runs out. FACTS.

Of course, I don't think they will hold on either.
