Seriously though start deporting them straight to Ukraine. Zelensky needs soldiers. Solves a lot of problems is all I'm saying.

That or Saudi Arabia. And ditto for druggies and criminals. At least we could profit off the dregs of society that way

"They are RAPING CHILDREN and KILLING WOMEN ON THE STREETS."

"But the food..."

"They are SETTING CALIFORNIA ON FIRE."

"The tacos are REALLY good, though!"

It paints a very grim picture, doesn't it?

What do you all think about DOGE trying to stop the circulation of pennies? Since they cost 3 cents to make per penny, apparently.

 

[DickMain]

So wait, are they gonna take the prisoners back, or is he just posturing like a faggot?

It can be both. He will take them back and he can continue to throw a bitch fit about it until the sun stops shining. His criminals, his problem. We could just lynch people if he'd rather.

Oof. You don't like Kung Pao Chicken?

I've never seen it in a Chinese restaurant.

And Trump did the right thing, but imagine being praised for doing something normal like stopping buttsex worship and tranny pandering, as like some major milestone for the nation.

It sadly is when other nations are sinking with it.

chinese ain't any better.

Once you start peeling the onion on Chinese food it gets pretty brutal.

Ever heard of a century egg? I have a Chinese friend who eats these like candy.

Century eggs are a Chinese culinary dish made by preserving eggs in a mixture of clay, ash, salt, quicklime, and rice hulls for several weeks to several months, depending on the processing method. Through the process, the yolk becomes dark greenish grey in color, with a creamy consistency and strong flavor due to the hydrogen sulfide and ammonia present, while the white becomes dark brown in color, with a translucent jelly-like appearance and salty flavor.

Makes fiscal sense and other countries have gone down this path as well. If it costs the taxpayer a net -2 cents per cent in circulation it really doesn't have the right to exist as fiat

I genuinely want to know what he was thinking. All he had to do was greet the deportees on the tarmac and commiserate about their horrible and evil treatment at the hands of the Gringos.

Instead he decided to start a shit flinging contest and made Colombia the global volunteer for Trump to make an example out of. What a fucking idiot.

If you went back just two weeks, and did the exact same thing, it'd take the US a week or two to even vaguely decide on a response to it, and it would almost certainly be a compromise. Trump has been vastly different, not so much in his aggressiveness, but in the speed of it. Within hours of someone trying to stop his plan, he immediately opened the floodgates.

He's not playing games anymore, he's not playing judiciously with his soft or hard power, he's doing what he wants, and if they try to stop him, he'll immediately use anything at his disposal to make it the worst possible decision for them imaginable. And its working, I guarantee the rest of LATAM knows to not tell the repatriation flights to fuck off. AND he's fucking doing this while bullying the danes outta Greenland.

I wonder if this reminds Trump of his early business startup days. Might be where all the energy is coming from.

I remember humanities class in college (hyper woke area, for reference) talking about how buying coffee and bananas was the most primordially nonwoke thing you could do because it's basically heccin modern day slavery. Very funny now watching them heel turn to say the country collapses without it.

If this spat leads to my beloved Rwandan Coffee replacing the shit Colombia produces I will be overjoyed. My niggas, I cannot describe how superior nigga coffee from Africa is to whatever the fuck these incan wannabes call coffee.

"Keep the tariffs on Colombia anyways, Father."

The S&P climbed 300 points in a month, it's just a sell-off imo.

The only NSFL dish I've seen recently is the Altoona style pizza.

Why even give somebody something that could wither away over time? Give a lady something she could use or last. Nourishment, heartfelt creations, money, maybe even a memory.

It stems back to the days when literally everything smelled of shit. The flowers were the only thing that smelled nice, and giving someone flowers was effectively saving their home from
Smelling awful. Even the grungy women back then didn’t want to smell awful, so them carrying a bouquet was the way they smelled sweet, especially before perfumes became affordable to the lower classes.
These days it’s just a very old human tradition that has centuries of heritage keeping it alive

"The tacos are REALLY good, though!"

NO they are not. I lived in SoCal for a few years and that shit was tyranny. Maybe I'm a stupid american but the only things that were good was 1 place where I lived overall, anything with el pastor tacos w/ cilantro and there was one place that had seasoned chips for their chips and salsa which was wonderful. Besides that, hellscape.
