Applebee's definitely gives back... in about 4-6 hours.

93% of his claimed savings is false.
They saved just a little over $10.5 Billion and that involved starving children and ending cancer research.

Rubio had the lowest attendance record of any Senator after he was no longer Chair of the Senate Intel Committee. He only showed up in the 6 months prior to any election.

So when will this administration be seeking his return?
He could have flown in with Bukele today.

You do have to use a DL or State ID to purchase a gun.
All states have switched to Real ID.
Oklahoma was the last to comply in 2020.
Please stop misinfo/disinfo. It has no place on this or any platform.

Passing the buck is now in the form of court documents for this administration.
Expect several lawsuits to follow.

It doesn't prevent people from voting, but it does make it harder. That was the intent... to end the Motor Voter Act and reduce registered voters. If Mike Lee cared about security, he'd push for a national ID with citizenship status on it free for all citizens. But that's not what Mike wants.

He meant if your birth certificate doesn't match your current legal name... like if you changed your legal name as many people do when they marry. You should have the court order for the name change, so that's just one more document you need to register to vote.

They just rescinded the tariffs on phones and computers, so if you are just a retail shop selling Chinese made electronics, you're good. But if you're an American computer manufacturer, who uses Chinese computer parts, you still get tariffed.
Explain how that helps American manufacturing again?

That was your takeaway?
Reread what you're challenging like a normal person instead of a contracts lawyer and you'll understand.

The yield curve almost completely inverted on April 4.

Collectively, it all went up.

Yeah. All that does is prove it wasn't made at a Kinkos.

The simple answer to any MAGA pushing this:
I don't have to prove to you that I get to exercise my Constitutional right.
I was born with it, and like 2A, it's up to the government to prove that I no longer deserve it.
If they want ID, then give all citizens federal ID for free.

Well, normally the SEC would be all over that, especially if the buyers were in the administration or large donors, but what can they do now except get fired if anyone even asks about the transactions?

We only have a recession because of one guy's ego. He took almost 3% growth in GDP and it is now pushing a 5% loss... in less than 3 months.

You're upset because the Texas flag was bookended by LGBTQ flags?
That was in Texas. If that offended you, don't go to Dallas or Houston.
Problem solved and it didn't cost retirees their IRAs, ending 4A, 5A, 6A, openly breaking laws, or stripping Congress of their powers.

Trump already did trade wars his first term. The result: we had to issue the largest farm bailout in US history and our trade deficit with China increased by almost 50%.
Anyone who didn't see this coming was willfully ignorant.
Ignorance can be corrected. Willful ignorance is a sin.

EOs are absolutely an Executive power.
They are memos to the Exec branch on how to implement Article 2 duties and procedures.
But they cannot create, change, or break laws.
So far, those that did have been shut down.
Until now, Presidents accepted court decisions about that.

Lee Greenwood created and imported those Bibles.
Trump just got paid to promote them. He didn't spend a single penny. Just made profit off the rubes.

We already suspended the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments arresting people and shipping them to a foreign prison with no charges, permanent residents with no charges or court dates or lawyers, and detaining tattooed citizens.
Did you think 3rd graders would be able to have a lawyer in 1-touch contacts?

Fox is claiming the protestors were paid thousands each.
That would be over $27 Billion in paid actors...
I want to know who to send a bill to, so I can pay my next 3 months rent for my participation.

Decades of Congress delegating their authority to the Exec.
The founders put Congress in control of tariffs and trade and all money, and separated the courts as an equal branch... because they rejected a king and had just lost ~30,000 1% American lives proving it.
For ref: Vietnam was 0.03% loss.

Being honest, that's pretty much the same "help" the US gave the developing world for the past 100+ years, but with far less guns and boots on the ground.

It's insane that they used AI to generate the list -- which is broken up by web domain extensions, not countries... and no one even looked at it and said "this can't be right".
comment in response to

China's been helping third world countries develop since the early 00s, because that gives them new markets to divest of their trade dependence on the US.
The US "tariffs on the whole world" policy now is a huge win for them.

He's flushing US out of the global economy.
This is isolationism.
He applied 10% tariffs on countries we have a trade surplus with.
And the chart was built using AI, which is why the "countries" are all wrong on the list. They're web domain extensions.
No one even checked it.

It makes far more sense if you track Trump's buddies stock market buys and short sells.
Their timing is uncannily accurate, like they have some magical predictions...

And yet they don't understand why they continue to lose.
It might have to do with the party shifting to the right every year since Reagan took office.

One of the questions on citizenship is about whether or not you have ever violated the terms of your visa.
He had to lie about that to have received citizenship.
comment in response to

Charges aren't usually filed unless the visa holder commits a separate crime promoting review.
comment in response to

Not really. You can be immediately denaturalized if you lied on your citizenship or visa applications.

They give the false impression of choice to make you forget it's solely a proprietary monopoly of tech once you go that route.

No jokes and ideas are more polished over there.
It's almost all memes (the laziest form of disinfo) and filled with bots and foreign troll farms with a poor grasp of colloquial English, Spanish, Italian, and French (whatever their translation programs give them).
It's 4chan 2.0

We are the only country on the planet with our level of wealth, no universal healthcare, the most expensive healthcare, and the worst outcomes.
No one paid attention until a CEO was murdered.
I abhor murder, but am surprised it took this long.

I abhor murder.
I also am surprised more CEOs haven't been murdered.
It seems that veil of lack of attention has now been lifted.

out after and then go back to see them trailing their unwashed fingers along a woman's arm and want to say something about "dick hands" but The Flea by Donne is a favorite poem.
Once covid hit, I didn't hesitate to mention the unwashed.
