the whole "but drumpf dodged le draft!!" argument is worthless coming from leftoids anyway because when the vietnam war was actually happening, leftoids were up in arms against it, they celebrated 'conscientous objectors', and they spat on US soldiers returning home
These people have no consistent morals, yet they point out every perceived hypocrisy. Its that old meme where the words don't have meanings, they're expected to be used as spells that just sound "correct".
The other day, someone was talking to me about Trump's reaction to that guy dying. We agreed that the same people who grave danced over Charlie's Kirk's death have no right to moralfag about Trump doing the same thing. The hypocrisy eventually gets so tiresome that average people who are lukewarm about Trump at best are more turned off by the same hate hurled his way that's deemed unacceptable to be directed towards anyone else.

California governor Gavin Newsom hates it when Nick Shirley investigates fradulent daycares.
What grinds my gears about this is seeing newspaper articles pearl clutching over day care workers who are grossly underpaid and lack adequate resources for their kids while this blatant corruption takes place with nobody batting an eye over it. Sure, government programs are always going to have waste, corruption, and fraud to an extent. However, the millions to billions being given to fraudsters could instead be given to the day care workers who genuinely care about the children under their care and could do more if they instead received the extra money being used for anything but daycare by these slimy profiteers. In California, though, nothing surprises me because they've always hated anyone pointing out their fraud, corruption, and hypocrisy.

This is so fucking childish and petty, a grown fucking man arguing with a literal teenager and getting ratio'd every time you try to "own" them.
Even if I agree with the governor's premise that minors shouldn't be on video without their faces blurred, there's still the root issue of bogus daycare pocketing money and doing little to nothing for the kids under their care. The governor's social media staff may think the reply is the perfect burn and epic own, but they seem blissfully unaware they simply set themselves up for an even better one-up response.

They've set Newsom up for L after L on Twitter and he's either not paying attention (and nobody's alerting him to it) or nobody in his circles or staff is bright enough to realize how bad they're doing.
Hand in hand with the above, they think an epic own or online outrage is all is takes to discredit someone or their arguments. Years ago, I recall someone who blogged about California's state legislature objecting to being called "girly men" by then Governor Schwarzenegger while completely ignoring the claim they cared more about special interest groups than their constituents. It's easier to show mock outrage than it is to do something more meaningful or address the underlying issue.

Well, I mean, you can't make promises without some way to back them up. They can't be like "Uhhhhh we never said we would stop enriching, um - like, in our, um, underground... power... plant thing... so um, you have to hold your end of the bargain and not pick on us anymore."
They only began enriching their uranium after Trump tore up the JCPOA. Our own inspectors certified they were in compliance up to that point.

Nukes were just the excuse. Israel will not allow an independent, prosperous Islamic state to exist in the region and Iran was about to emerge as that. They still will when this is over except then they will be untouchable.
 
China is begging Iran to open the strait. Turns out losing fuel when you're already in a depression is heading towards a complete motherfucking disaster.
The hilarious part is that China and Russia are at odds with each other with the war in Iran :story:

Russia wants to keep the war in Iran going for as long as possible so they can reap the rewards of increased oil prices, and so that all the pressure currently on them can shift to the Middle East instead. China is desperate to stop the war as soon as possible so their economy doesn't fucking die and they can get the oil they rely on once again.

Did Iran ever think about the fact that the US is an energy exporter?
 
Joe Kent leaked stuff from Turning Point about Charlie to Candace, he must now be branded as a jeet. Oh, the faggot is also willing to testify for the defense for Charlie Kirk's murderer:

Arguments were heard yesterday (26/03/23) on the mail in ballot case brought about by the GoP in Mississippi and...

it did not go well for the defendants. The Mississippi SoG who was defending against the GoP lawsuit about allowing mail in ballots to be received up to a week after the election was grilled by Gorsuch to the extent I think he went home and cried afterwards.


With the exception of the usual suspects it does seem like the SCOTUS is not favourably inclined to allow such election shenanigans as mass mail in ballots, post dated ballots and other typical Democratic strategies for winning elections.

It also doesn't help that the Mississippi Soliciter General seems way out of his depth here, even misquoting his states laws several times which seem to antagonize both the HNIC and Gorsuch who took time to call him out on it and make him look quite the fool.

Over all I think the Dems are going to lose this one and if so it sets a precedent for other states to follow to put massive limits on after election ballots. Not that this will change anything in Blue states, where the Democratic machine is in full power but the swing states may be a lot less "swing" when mail in ballots have several limits placed on them.

The Strait was never closed for China. Well maybe for those first couple days until things were figured out but until they started the $2 million toll yesterday Chinese tankers were the only ones that had passed.

EDIT: Almost forgot - that $2 million toll must be paid in Yuan. RIP petrodollar.

is it just me or is that efficient and short line much less brown than a few days ago, even from Black people who were probably citizens
 
I always find it so funny how lefties respect of the military only applies when it's a guy they like. I remember way back during the bone spurs arc (I was intentionally apolitical at the time because I was so sick of hearing about orange man) a friend of mine who's lefty and Anti-Trump was filling me in against my will and starts ragging on Trump for dodging the draft.

I go, "uh I mean kinda based, I wouldn't want to go to Vietnam either"

He starts telling that actually it's cringe because Trump once said he'd run in a school during a shooting to save kids, but heh that old orange man has bone spurs right?

And I'm like "well stopping a school shooter and going to Vietnam during the war are kinda different things entirely"

I was so confused on what I was supposed to be laughing or annoyed about, the fact he was smart enough to get out of going to a hyper violent warzone or that he got emotional on twitter and said he'd save the day after a shooting. My friend then started saying how he'd have definitely just gone to war no questions asked unlike Drumpf. I remember being so baffled lmao. Here was my big, long time, anti war friend now telling me that he would join one of most brutal American wars without any objections just to say he was better than Orange Man.
It hit me that these people who rags on Trump for dodging the draft, i wanna bet you bottom dollar that they were the same people who treated the vets like shit when they came home from the war. I wonder if your friend even be able to handle all of that had he been drafted. The thing with trump hate being so childish is that it's projection. There's no other way to see it.

that's in response to dems crying about Trump's reaction to Mueller's death. Should he have said it? No, but democrats has set the precedent when they expressed disappointment about the bullet missing trump and cheered when charlie kirk, scott adams, and rush limbaugh died. Even if Trump were to say RIP about mueller's passing, democrats would call it fake or say he didn't write it.

Have you considered that killing the Iranian chief of staff might be a legitimate objective instead of this retarded conspiracy slop?

Fuck this nigger and everyone who defended him.
 
Iran just got off several weeks long bread riots.
So what? They've never been allowed to freely trade and if the JCPOA hadn't been torn up and sanctions reintroduced would that crisis have happened? Doesn't matter now since we've given them the perfect scapegoat to blame all their previous problems on.

Regardless when this is over Iran will quickly emerge as an independent prosperous Islamic state and it will be our fault. It costs Iran $6 to produce a barrel of oil. China and Russia have too much incentive to make fools out of us harder with it.

Fuck this nigger and everyone who defended him.
Trump appointed him.
