Damn is it that easy to scam everify or is the employer lyin?
E-Verify only checks if the SSN is valid, not if it belongs to the person claiming it as their personal one. So yes, unfortunately it is that easy to scam, but its better than nothing.
Literally all hispanics:
I'm friends online with a Tejano and I constantly joke that his love of dark-skinned anime babes is his Spaniard genes asserting their dominance.
Trump ran and won 2016 on criticizing Obama's immigration policy but I'm suppose to believe Obama was somehow more tough on the border than an administration that's raiding home depots? come the fuck on.
I can't wait to see whoever is in charge of Home Depot try to explain away their losses in sales to the shareholders and investors.
There's a group of National Socialists -- yes literally -- that have been pushing the 1830 map for years. They've been intentionally moving fighting aged men and cartels into the southwest under the theory that the US is weak, won't defend it's borders, won't throw them out, so eventually they'll just take back that land and turn it into a Mexican Socialist Ethnostate. I forget the name, it's something starting with M. Razorfist did a video on them a year or two ago. They've even started pushing candidates in the southwest states and I'd be absolutely gobsmacked if they don't start pushing Judges since apparently we let FUCKING NON-AMERICANS be judges in our country for some goddamned reason.

Posted up a Wiki link about them here. They're a lot more influential than people think in the Southwest, with guys like the former Lt. Governor of CA, Cruz Bustamante, being associated with them.
(And aside from that, what the globohomo faggots who push variants of this narrative always leave out, is that labor in many cases is the smallest part of costs. The labor part on an iPhone for example, is 10-30$)
When Argentina was looking for someone to build some battleships for them in the early 1910's they went with the USA because we were the cheapest option. Not because the labor was cheap (quite the opposite) but because the steel was.
Sure, some Muslims. But a nation committing suicide to “own the Jews” is not only such a vain prospect on both sides, but also completely insane.

An entire nation dying to remove one spot of Hebrew and radiating holy land would cause such insane fallout that every single Muslim on earth would be considered a threat and treated as such. A nuclear strike done suddenly without proper cause would doom Islam on earth forever and the Iranian people would be officially gone in just a short moment.

And it’s not like Iran can just hand off a nuke to a third party for them to strike. Everyone, anyone, knows any nuclear strike on Israel would be 10000% Iran and treated as such. They have a responsibility if created to secure them.

Even NK, more insane than Iran, has nukes. They still have not blown up SK or Japan. They effectively cannot use them except in diplomacy and even then, it’s a terrible bluff. Let Iran waste its money, imo.

Remember this and how there was sperging about "muh Israel" and then it turned out it was just an old, poorly-maintained helicopter sent into a bunch of inclement weather in the mountains because Allah would keep everyone safe? Never, ever underestimate Islamic stupidity.
The last administration was pro making peace with Iran though? John Kerry famously illegally met with Iran to negotiate, Biden took the Houthi off the list of terrorist groups, and Obama was in DC directing talks with Iran behind the curtain. The Dems had Ariane Tabatabai in a high ranking position with access to critical data when she had been shown to communicate with IRGC leaders.

the sheer amount of retardation to claim that the democrats were anti Iran is staggering. This also relies on the IAEA and UN to be somehow complicit.

So pro-Iran even Politico of all rags felt the need to run an expose on their shenanigans.

And yeah, I'm 99.99999% certain I'm late as fuck on all of that, but this thread moves way too fast for even me to keep up with.

"My father gave his life, making this country what it is. Murdered by the British with all of his men on the twenty-fifth of July, anno domini, 1814.
Do you think I'm going to help you befoul his legacy, by giving this country over to them what's had no hand in the fighting for it?
Why, because they come off a boat crawling with lice and begging you for soup?"
OH MY HECCIN SCIENCE IT'S JUST LIEK GANGZ OF NEW YORK GUISE.
Neil might be gay but that's no excuse to be gay back.
 
You'll also see this in your place at work, if you ever worked in food (especially with a lot of women) everybody has had that coworker that accuses another of doing something that really wasn't that bad, but the accused starts getting defensive.

I used to be this way and I don't really know what changed, but eventually I figured out that if you just say "hmmm? oh yes I did cut the tomatoes that way. You are correct i did do that" not even in a smug way, just factually, things go much better. Your accuser won't even know what to do, their brain never conceived a reality where that happened and they don't know what to do next.
I have a coworker who loves to blow up about things. Just part of who he is, he's an intense individual, but he easily misjudges things and assigns weird blame for little things.

"WTF why are there a ton of phones in this drawer??"

"Because I put them there since we were responsible for deploying them, they are spares."

He didn't want to get mad at me, he wanted to be mad at a situation that gave him an excuse to complain and go off the rails. My calm owning of his perceived wrong completely defused whatever anger was brewing as a result of something else going on in his life.

Everyone wants to rail against "them" until "them" is a person you wouldn't actually want to argue with or make angry because it's fruitless and just makes the work environment weird. Pretty interesting.
 
Trump says he's going to bring The Kennedy Center "back to the highest level, higher than it ever was before" at the opening for Les Mis.

I'mma be honest, if I were president and in charge of the kennedy center, i'm setting up a fund for writers to make new plays and shit. not no damn shitty hamilton, no. I want Ibsen, Shakespeare level work.
 
So this shit is also international I just discovered, which means if they have the entire globe, then that 6 million+ figure they touted as possible attendees includes the literal rest of the world.

"This is bigger than politics." = "We don't actually have a goal in mind."

Are they retarded?
Yes.
So this will be a bigger nothingburger than 50501.
I hate Nothingburger. Can we get Happenings Fried Chicken instead?
 
Remember this and how there was sperging about "muh Israel" and then it turned out it was just an old, poorly-maintained helicopter sent into a bunch of inclement weather in the mountains because Allah would keep everyone safe? Never, ever underestimate Islamic stupidity.
I recall seeing a tweet that talked about how some Muslim militants deal with failure and loss. They say "Allah will protect them" and in the same vein, if anything goes wrong, they point fingers and say its was just "the will of Allah" and shrug. I see the behavior in Afghanistan and poorer Muslim countries, but to your point, Islamic stupidity represents more deaths than you would think.
 
Are "our great Farmers" willing to adjust their business and operating models (adapting planting patterns, SOPs, adding additional automation, etc) in order to pay even minimum wage for the grueling manual labor they have become accustomed to paying near slave wages for?

If not, they can fuck off.
 
Why is everyone saying Trump bent the knee to the protestors? Isn't he saying that changes will be coming to the Farmers and Hotels because he's getting rid of the illegals and not that changes are coming to his deportation plans? He even said he wants to protect the Farmers but he has to get rid of the criminals.
Trump didn't bend any knees. He lifted the hammer, but never needed to use it. They just stopped on their own with WW3 imminent.
 
The response will be to shove the FBI even deeper up everyone’s ass and it will change nothing
Sticking it to them is its own reward and being scared of death is a powerful motivator.

I admittedly don't know a ton about it, but part of what pushed Japan from Taisho Democracy to the Showa Restoration was the military Rightists constantly assassinating their opponents until they just all gave up. It's the persistence of it that matters. Luigi killed one dude, but if it had spawned copycats (it hasn't), it'd be a different story. So how does an agent make that kind of thing become endemic, like other types of violence?
 
Their social power comes not from the accusation itself, but the squirming their opponent's do when accused of something that's not even wrong. When the crowd sees the accused person acting like they did something wrong, people assume they did. It's how leftists establish something normal as unacceptable, by starting out assertively to force you to agree to their frame of reference.

1: They accuse you of violating a moral norm that nobody agreed was even a moral norm. Intent doesn't matter, only perceived harm.
2: The moral frame is non-negotiable. You're not asked to explain but told you are guilty, any attempt to defend yourself is framed as further guilt.
3: You're required to confess, overexplain, and beg. Groveling is seen as a virtue and forgiveness is not guaranteed.

The answer when accused of something you actually did or believe is to say "yes, and?" like the serpent did. Not because the serpent was good, it wasn't good, but it did understand this concept of owning your intent as power as did many righteous people later in the bible. Including Jesus.
This is valuable teaching right here.
Own your actions, and don't bother explaining yourself.
If you simply must explain, do it with as few words possible.
Become the gray rock.
Those who thrive on hysteria will falter.
 
REPORTER: "How imminent is an Israeli strike on Iran?
"Trump: "I don't want to say imminent, but it looks like it's something that could very well happen. Look, it's very simple, not complicated. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon."

I bet you that if Israel and the US is going to do anything soon to Iran, they're going to do it on the weekend when the markets are closed to prevent shit hitting the fan. Bookmark this

I think it can be read both ways. Initially I read it in the interpretation that he is backing down. But now I have read your reading, I think yours is most likely the correct one.

Perhaps it is people having PTSD from so many political betrayals that the tendency is when there is ambiguity, to assume the worst of the political class. cos that is what one usually gets.

not this weekend. Trump would never willingly let the world's attention be redirected from his Parade.
