That makes sense. I never thought Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk looked very rugged.

Well, I'm not sure. Certainly many people may have had that in mind. I learned this stuff through anecdotes. I wasn't there. There has been plenty of time for people to alter the truth. There is at least some counterexample. People used to take care of their parents and their aunts and...

I'm not sure what you think I meant. You seem to be replying to something else. I will rephrase. I don't think Colombia won anything meaningful. They did not get Trump to treat the deportees with an ounce more respect. They just moved forward the time that Colombia could treat them better...

"birthright citizenship is unconstitutional" is a terrible way to frame it. I hope that's what his lawyers say when they get heard in court. I had previously believed and said that the courts are just going to slap this thing down and Trump was going to be able to say the did his part and it...

I feel virtually certain that the USA is still treating them exactly the same right up until Colombia gets them and Trump doesn't give a tiny, tiny care what Colombia does with them after that.

At least for starters the change made is that Colombia sent two of its own planes to the USA to pick them up. It is hard to see how Trump could see this as anything but a victory. Flying an airplane is more expensive than most people think about it being.

That is a very messy story for a redhat to have to digest. Did the pardoned rioter misbehave with guns? Do police shoot people prematurely because they get scared? Would it be better if this guy was in prison?

You probably answered the question and we can close this one up. Oh, no. The average person could define it. It is taxing me and giving the money to someone who will not work. It definitely isn't highways and libraries and fire fighters and the army.

Someone interacting on a Facebook meme alluded to something that I'm not sure I really pinned all together before. The meme was about free public transportation and they were replying to someone who has trolled that "Well, actually isn't free..." The reply was that this is the way civilization...

Trump says Colombia backed down and will now be treated however he decides to treat them. Edit - Maybe he is running a different strategy that I had imagined and he's trying to make Colombians associate the USA with disgust. So no matter how bad things are in Colombia, the USA is the last...

Maybe it is always darkest before the dawn? Uh....I can't remember how fast he said he would get grocery prices down. He said he would stop the Ukraine War in 1 day and a lot of people are wishing that day would dawn.

I was pretty similar to you at one point. I had seen some of Rocky 4 and 5 as a kid and had some rough understanding of how the series went. I bought 1-5 when 6 was about to come out and watched the whole series with a couple of friends, one who had some them all and one who had seen none...

So I reviewed the list of top Colombian imports and it is funnier than I thought. Fruits and Vegetables as I said. Coffee as others said. But the biggest is petroleum, both crude and refined products. So. To summarize. Colombia wants its deportees to come in a civilian flight and...

Really?

Dude froze all foreign aid for a 90 day review whether we are getting what we want for a money. It would be a good time for someone to remind him that what we used to get for aid to Central America was no caravans.

Not for 3 more days.

I'm glad it wasn't a missile strike. What do we import from Colombia? I would guess fruits and vegetables. Trump is killing two birds with one stone. This will make it harder for Colombians to make a living in Colombia and raise groceries prices in the United States. Unfortunately, we...

https://apnews.com/article/trump-biden-israel-bomb-gaza-hamas-war-023b36984c6116c128b5e47f117bba2a Do I remember right that influential Arab-American groups said to vote for Trump because Kamala was too soft on Israel?

There was a court ruling way back that people point to that says to accept a Presidential pardon you have to admit guilt. I don't know the circumstances. I'll look it up sometime. But that to me feels like a judicial overreach. To me the most sensible understanding of the pardon power is as...

Trump would not have a major disaster in the next 4 years, a Democrat would win the next election and there'd be a freak hurricane in February and they'd be like, "It was never like this when Trump was President"
