we look back and laugh at the cave men who were pounding holes in each other's skulls for medical purposes.
Slight sperg and maybe you know of instances that I don't but from what I'm aware of, we marvel at such cases since it was a legitimate and advanced medical procedure. The instances I am aware of happened in cultures that heavily used clubs in warfare which in some instances resulted in death from fatal swelling of the brain after being hit in the head. The holes cut in the skull relieved pressure and the proof that these procedures worked is that in many of them the hole that was drilled ended up healing.
 
Did you even watch the clip of Trump announcing it? They'll have to go through the same process anyone else does to get citizenship and will be required to invest money in the US.
This is literally already a program, except the existent program requires you to invest in the economy and prove that you've actually created jobs instead of paying a $5m bribe to the federal government directly.
 
Trump just announced a "Gold Card" A green card you can get for $5 million or so.

Great, now all those actual rocket surgeons that leftists screech about can get in. Surely if all the immigrants are superman with desperately needed skills they can either afford it, have whatever spaceship hospital they work for front it, or get a loan. I don't see a downside.
 
Yes I also love the idea of selling passports, just like other famously successful nations like Turkey, Barbados, Grenada, Dominica, and Antigua.
The EB5 Visa allows foreigners to get permanent residency and puts them on a path for citizenship if they invest $1m and can even go down to 500k depending on the area


The value of the investment — which is to be determined by the fair market value — must meet certain minimums depending on the area of investment. If the petition was filed after March 15, 2022, the investment must be at least $1,050,000. That is, unless the investment is in a targeted employment area (TEA) — which is either a rural area or an area with high unemployment — in which case it must be $800,000 at minimum.

If the applicant filed their petition prior to March 15, 2022, the minimum invested is $1 million. If they are investing in a TEA, the minimum is lowered to $500,000.

I’m for alternatives like a gold card to lower taxes. I would bet per capita wealthy immigrants will commit less crime than 90 percent of legal immigrants.
Yes let's blindly trust the government and let's also honestly believe the kind of people that would bribe their way into a country would be a great fit for our nation. Also foreign nationals starting businesses in other nations and willing to bribe their way in are the best bosses and improve the nation and area.

I addressed this above. While I'm not particularly fond of the EB5 either, I do prefer requiring investment in the actual economy rather than a direct bribe to the feds.
 
This is a really stupid fucking cope take. How about we stop letting them in at all.

I
remember when this meme was used by Trumpniggers to shit on retarded neocons.
It’s retarded to you because you are Down syndrome optimistic. We’re literally never going to have a president stop letting immigrants in. My point is that if we’re going to let them in (and we always will) then at least reduce the burden of the tax payer. Ironically you’re the one coping by imagining the ethnostate that will never happen.
 
Video games are no different. If a character is well written and doesn't come off like a fucking tool or an item on a checklist, then people are going to love them. Part of why DEI is hated by people is because DEI shoves black into things without any real rhyme or reason. What's worse is that they can also REPLACE characters that were well-loved in the first place. Nobody was fucking doing that back then, everything was original and unique and everyone was fucking happy... which is a feeling that DEI hates, because even when the black character has everything they want, it's never enough (like real life with leftists/SJWs in general). It's a poisonous mindset and precedence that destroys all creativity and fun for the sake of meeting a quota and being part of the thinkgroup that's "on the right side of history".
We had none of those concerns during the late 90s/2000s. One of the most popular superhero films at the time was Blade, a black superhero film that was so successful that it saved Marvel. Every Christmas you go shopping, whether it be for gifts or for a tree, and you will hear one of the most beloved Christmas songs sung by Nat King Cole, a black musician. GTA San Andreas was the biggest video game of its time and no one fucking cared that you had to play as a black male because the game was great and CJ was entertaining. One of the most popular shows on television was Chappelle's Show, created by a black comedian that often focused on primarily black only sketches. Pretty much every action film with two male leads was a white male/black male buddy cop film but no one cared. Our country even elected a black man into the highest office in the country.

This country truly did not give a fuck about any of that shit and yet we were subjugated to a decade of browbeating about how every white person has always hated black people and the only reason why people don't like modern media is because there's a black person. If anything, these DEI retards have made people racist towards black people because everyone is so tired of this shit that they immediately associate random black character with DEI low quality dogshit.

The total spending in 2024 was $6.752 trillion, revenue was $4.919 trillion. Let's assume the total bullshit claim that Trump can reduce spending by $2 trillion, which even he and Musk said that if they're lucky they will get half of that. That will put us at $4.752 trillion vs $4.919 trillion revenue with current taxes. Assuming we have a truly balanced budget and we reduce taxes by 20%, we would have to make up a deficit of $817 billion, which means we'd have to sell 163,400 "gold cards" a year.
 
Sorry if someone else already mentioned it. But there's a whistleblower who said the FBI deleted the Epstein files.

Not surprising. Since the CIA did the same with the MK ULTRA docs. The FBI has done the same thing with evidence and docs surrounding the Finders and the Delta Project. Shit that makes them look bad, they get rid of. IIRC, they also got rid of shit like the bullet ridden door that was at Waco.
