So, 0.2% of his net worth is enough to buy the republican party…

I’m not sure if you’re using a broken app or something but there is definitely text there. Here are the first three paragraphs.

President Donald Trump has allowec the use of cheaper red-dyed diesel. typically reserved for farm operations, to be used more broadly in an attempt to bring down record-high fuel costs

Trump signed an executive order Monday evening stateside to temporarily allow truckers and farmers to use red-dved diesel - which is exempt from highway fuek taxes - and deferred related taxes on the fuel through the end of this year

The tax-free diesel is typically used by farm equipment, construction machinery, trucks and other off-road vehicles. It is therefore exempt from a 24.4-cent-per-gallon tax applied to dliesel fuel sold for highway transportation.

The most obvious slight of hand here is the suggestion that employer contributions shouldn’t count as part of what employees paid in. That is part of their compensation and shouldn’t be ignored when suggesting that younger generations are paying for baby boomer’s social security.

To me this reads like someone is trying to poison younger people against social security so they won’t complain when it is taken away.

To be clear, they published the rule to the federal register. If the I junctions are lifted, the rule will immediately go into effect. This has no immediate effect and hopefully never will.

So, the Democrats push their member to resign while the Republicans allow theirs to hold on until it won’t hurt their vote margin. If the dems hadn’t lost one, the repubs would have let him keep hanging on.

1. A quick search brings up nothing with ICE and “warheads” so it doesn’t appear to be “widely reported”. Can you give evidence for your claims?
2. I didn’t say that the article is making unsubstantiated claims. I said that you are. The article is substantiated, it just isn’t all that surprising that ICE is spending more on weaponry as they hire more agents.
3. The story says nothing about slush funds or anything beyond ICE spending more on weaponry.
4. You are posting in a public forum. That is explicitly asking for conversation and feedback, even if you didn’t directly ask me for mine. If you don’t want people to respond, don’t post.

Raw Story already stretches the truth for clicks. You’re here just making completely unsubstantiated claims. They are doing more than enough heinous shit without people mudding the waters with lies.

In response to the article itself, which references a 360% increase in weapons spending, ICE more than doubled the number of agents it employs. I wish they wouldn’t, but they seem to think that all of these untrained traitors need weapons. It makes sense that they would have a massive increase in weapons purcheses to outfit the new traitors and the future traitors they’re hoping to hire.

This is a non-story for the most part and you don’t need to add lies to it.

I generally ignore anything from News Week, Raw Story, or the Daily Beast. They all do stuff like this. They twist facts to get a story where there is none.

@[email protected] I just want to say thanks for posting quality links so frequently. You’re one of the few who isn’t posting click bait junk like Raw Story and Daily Beast.

The seat opened up after Republican state Sen. Kelly Hancock was tapped as acting state comptroller.

So, the Republicans felt comfortable enough in this district to intentionally trigger this election. They could have appointed someone from another district or someone who wasn’t holding a seat at all, but they thought they were safe. I think that shows just how badly they are underestimating the level of outrage right now.

My bet is that, even if she is impeached and convicted, she will remain in office E just like Lindsay Halligan. None of these shit stains are going anywhere without being physically removed.

If she is impeached, they’re going to do the same thing as with the court order against Lindsay Halligan. They’re going to ignore the order until forced.

What the fuck? After I heard about the previous court ruling I figured that would be the end of it. They’re just flatly ignoring the judge on this? If I were a jljudge, I’d start tossing all cases brought by the eastern district of VA until she is no longer leading the division.

Ummm, that was the point when they voted him in I tuink. It’s just that, as Trump becomes more unpopular, Johnson is losing his usefulness.

Watch the supreme court disagree.

Everything that comes out of his mouth is beneath the office.

When he says something awful like this, though, I figure there is probably another story that he’s trying to bury with manufactured outrage. I suspect Fox is on board and is with amplifying the non-news item to bury the real news item.

Before I say this, ICE is awful and driving without a license shouldn’t be a deportable offense. Also, military service should give automatic citizenship.

I feel like this article is leaving something out. How did ICE get involved in this? I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised if they got involved simply because they saw a record of a non-citizen getting arrested but I’m wondering if he didn’t renew his green card or something.

I’m not arguing that this guy deserves to be deported (I think he should be a citizen) but I do wish we got the whole story on things.

All I want for Christmas is an obituary, An obituary, yeah an obituary. Gee, if only I could have an obituary Then, I could wish you Merry Christmas!

I think most democrats have been voting for democrats while wishing they were more left. Voting for democrats hasn’t been about liking the candidates. It’s been more about disliking the opposing candidates.

I hope we fall a few votes short of veto-proof. Then Trump vetos. Then we get a veto-proof vote. Maybe that’s asking for too much, though.
