You’re a moron. The ‘crime bill’ is poorly written shyte. Massie most certainly did comment on Charlie Kirk.

"Actually you can't punish young criminals because of Epstein"

Stupid.

Regarding Charlie Kirk, here are all of his tweets that mention Kirk since the one you posted.

Mentioning how Kirk was allegedly against war with Iran

A post highlighting Democrats who participated in a bipartisan vigil for Charlie Kirk.

This is it. No condemning any of the horrible things being said by the left.
 
Fee for the h1b jeets to pay, or fee for the corporations to pay?
I'd guess corpos. This guts the complaint that Americans don't have the high skill level that jeets supposedly do. If you need it, pay for it.
 
I feel like I do this kind of comparing a lot but it really is a recurring mechanic: this has the exact same energy as 90s churches putting Jesus on a skateboard while saying "remember kids, virginity and not swearing is cool!"
Don't feel bad, I sperged about this concept constantly over the last week lol. I feel the same way but what drives me crazy is the complete lack of self-awareness. The people doing this "cringe" stuff now are the ones who back then, when younger, found Jesus on the skateboard to be cringey.

How do you fall into the same traps the older generation did? Very baffling.
 
there's little that makes me work on my posture when speaking as much as seeing some hunchbacked congressghoul hovering over their script

The assassination of Charlie Kirk and the ghoulish leftist responses made me get off my lazy ass and start to do 100 pushups and 100 sit-ups a day
 
Holy shit this Persian guy has invested in fucking everything. From Ferrari, to oil and gas, to Jack in the Box. Who is this man?

He's a son of a genuine refugee from Iran, back when the Shah was deposed and the Mullahs took over. He went into investing and made quite a bit of money, and has chosen to throw his lot in with The Donald.

Human nature never changes, and it doesn't care what you choose to identify as.
 
Holy shit, I didnt believe this at first, but fuck

"The California Legislature gave final approval to Assembly Bill 1127 on a concurrence vote Saturday. Although the measure does not refer to Glock by name, its text would ban licensed gun dealers from selling any “semiautomatic machinegun-convertible pistol,” defined specifically to cover semi-automatic handguns with the potential to be outfitted with illegal “Glock switches” and other conversion devices designed to produce automatic fire."

My firearm knowledge is basic, but doesnt this mean that essentially all of the 9mm full sized glocks are being banned from being sold? You know. Their most popular model?

Literally, I now have a basic bitch ass pistol that would be illegal for me to buy again. This fucking boils my blood, cause some retarded ghetto niggers be modifying their, already illegal guns, to better miss each other with. Because of that, fucking normal ass people arent allowed to have one of the most fucking popular and reliable pistols in the country. Just, fuck, I hope CA seceedes just so the rest of you are saved from this bullshit
Shit, I was under the impression that the vast majority of semi-automatic weapons could be converted to full auto, be it select fire or just nothing but full auto. Hell, there's pistols that fail into full auto.

Their desire too ban guns is almost as great as their desire too insure criminals who use them illegally dont spend a day in prison. It needs to be pointed out constantly that Democrats want to disarm the law abiding so the criminals they release onto our streets have an easier time preying on us.

God, hopefully this goes through the SC and it gets struck down. I think you are more right than not, if you try hard enough, any gun can become automatic.

The jeets in charge of the hiring at these companies are already okay with stealing from the company to bring the jeets in, $100k more isn’t going to both them

Good luck with that. They've been litigating the magazine ban since 2016 and it was overturned twice but CA kept scraping together enough 9th circuit judges to overturn the overturns. It only got filed to the Supreme Court this year and there's no guarantee they'll actually hear it.
 
Not on the American taxpayer’s dime. The US literally gets NOTHING of value from Israel. The relationship between the two countries is absolutely a one-way street.

Israel is #3 (after China & Russia) on the list of countries that do the most spying against America. Israel wouldn’t exist without massive support from the US and yet it brazenly spies on our citizens, steals our technology, and runs blackmail and influence peddling operations. AIPAC should be banned and its minders (each congressman is assigned one) should be booted back to the Middle East.
The ROI on Israel is pretty bad but it definitely didn't start off that way. Israel was given very strong support because it's a democracy in a third world of Islamic dictatorships. In a different era that was more useful strategically then it is now.

It started as a useful proxy for US foreign policy, to kill people we didn't like and we basically handed a kid a gun and said "oh my god UN we can't believe they did this" then vetoed any consequences against them.

It was a fundamental in real world technical integrations for things like missile interception and WW2 wasn't ancient history and it was given a lot of leeway.

However by giving Israel this extreme tech lead, funding, spy training, and access they went from quietly doing things like stealing nuclear secrets and creating political connections to controlling a sizeable amount of US policy through political donations.

The upsides to Israel as an ally are few and far between today and the negatives are much more evident. You couldn't google the US liberty 30 years ago, AIPAC was less powerful but more importantly largely unknown by your average taxpayer.

We created the monster with the best of intentions much like we did with Osama bin Laden. The thing keeping it afloat today is those previously built up tendrils and evangelicals mostly.
