Something major obviously changed with him.  

 

 

Have you heard him say different in the past?  If so could you post those please.   I haven’t heard it.  Thanks in advance

Did you ever get around to reading that report vs just the summaries from other people?

Gee….how about doing the right thing the last three months while thousands of Ukrainians have died because you refused to do this?

 

 

Oh please.   Thousands of Ukrainians would have died with or without more aid and ammo.   Thousands will die in the future most likely after getting aid.

Moscow Mike has all of a sudden turned a corner. 

I mean, you and your twitter peeps assured us the GOP was an arm of Russia now.  How is this possible?  Can’t be! 

Found this and didn’t know which thread to put it in.  But I absolutely agree with this guy and it would behoove MTG AND others to cut out the calling people they don’t like NAZI’s when they clearly aren’t.

What President?  Republicans being idiots and not governing?  That’s been set a long time ago. 

Not having a trial.  What was unconstitutional?

Absolutely. The good thing is that violent crime across the board has been on a downward trajectory since the 1970s. As we distance ourselves from COVID, violent crime seems to be resuming it'd downward trend.

Violent crime rates in the 70’s 80’s and early 90’s was a drug fueled anomaly imo.  I don’t think the 2000’s should be compared to those years.   Not that we still don’t have a drug problem in the US.  
It was more with the introduction of cocaine, crack, etc….gangs, users, small time dealers were all fighting for a piece of this new pie.  Much oh that non-sense is settled and we see less drug fueled gang war killings/violence  now a days.  

Ahhhhh, we’ve hit the….noted liberal reporter for NPR is now a Republican talking head….stage of the story. <insert huge eye roll>

Exactly!!!

In regards to the first point, near every Democrat and even some on the Republican side thought Missile Defense wouldn’t work and didn’t want to spend resources on it.  From Reagan all the way till Obama.

Absolutely bonkers considering the pro crime, anti-police, authority hating domestic policies of the Biden Administration. 

These numbers are interesting.   KC’s number is compared against 2023 when the city experienced its deadliest year on record.  This years number is also recently trending up.  Not sure if this reflects other cities too, but as for KC, it’s not the flex someone is wanting it to be.   
 

That said, reducing the murder rate is ALWAYS a good thing no matter who is in charge.

Mike lists himself as a business man. I’m guessing he needs to rethink that. 
 

 

I’m thinking he didn’t actually do what he claims.   Or he has a miniature portfolio to where it doesn’t matter

It seems like the conservative position on the issue is to pretend college is still just as affordable as it was decades ago and b!^@h loudly at anyone who complains that it isn't. Cue snarky Boomers not understanding why young people don't just work a job to pay for college like they did when they were younger.

Not a boomer, but I paid off my student loans and so did my wife.

My first child graduated with zero student loan debt by a combination of taking on line summer and mid semester community college classes, getting academic scholarships, working and a little help from mom and dad. 
 

My second child graduates in May and will have zero student loan debt by doing the exact same process.  They are not Boomers either.  They worked hard in HS, worked hard in college and as a matter of fact, this past year my son has been working a full time salaries position while taking 18 and 21 hour credit semesters in order to graduate in three years because his summer finance internship hired him full time and asked him to push it and finish early.  
 

Neither of them jacked around or got a worthless degree and both make enough to be able to pay off student loans if they would have has to take them.  For all that effort and sacrifice, they and I get to see others get rewarded for financial incompetence.  Yayyyyy!   
 

College is absolutely too expensive for what they provide.   No doubt about it.  However….Anyone, and I mean anyone can get a two year degree with zero debt easily and get the other two years with minimal debt by working during school……if you are financially smart and go to an in-state public school.

Those people who took out student loans are to blame.

Why?

There's a decent contingent of folks who feel outnumbered and use the laugh emoji as a troll job to feel better. Best to just laugh it off yourself and keep scrolling.

Agree and that’s what I do.

Who TF thinks it’s funny (laughing emoji) that US politicians have sided with Putin and are doing his bidding? Or maybe you’re just stupid and refuse to believe it in the face of overwhelming and unquestionable evidence. There are only two choices here. 1) you are amazingly stupid and don’t deserve an opinion or 2) you are also a traitor to the US and deserve the fate of a traitor. Well and a 3rd option I guess, both.

Not sure but the post came from The Bulwark which by itself is pretty funny.   The Bulwark folks are either 1) amazingly stupid and don’t deserve an opinion or 2) Traitors to their views of conservatism and deserve the fate of mocking.  Or Both.

If Biden handles this perfectly, the GOP can resume its outrage over student debt forgiveness.

Justifiably so!
