I don't mind the realpolitik pro Israel standpoint but I can fucking stand the "God will bless those who bless Israel" faux piety.
As much as CTR and I disagree and shitfling, I sure respect his views and positions a lot more than some boomer telling me he supports Israel because he read it in Genesis.

Tucker rightly asks if Cruz believes the Israel of the old testament is the same as the modern nation state, to which Cruz says he does. Fucking insanity.
This is insanity, Israel REJECTED God's Son the one and true Jesus Christ, how can he say with a strait face "God will bless those who bless Israel".

Everything I voted for in November was specifically to not get us in another stupid middle east war. Now here we go.
 
Still, I don't buy into the hysteria around Trump invading Iran. I remember back in 2017 a very similar situation happened and he actually ordered strikes on Iranian assets in Syria and killed one of their top generals in Iraq. It didn't end up escalating to an invasion and that was with John Bolton in his admin.

The problem isn’t just that the neocons set a trap for him. Trump was fucking dumb enough to help them dig it.

He started sperging about total surrender and “Our action”. Well the mullahs are still there, the regime didn’t crumble, they’re still firing rockets and their main nuclear sites are fine since it’s underneath a fucking mountain.

So Trump can either walk it back and appear ineffectual (there was NO reason to take ownership) or he’ll need to double down.
 
Nothing has happened, nothing is likely to happen, aside from maybe airstrikes. We spend something like almost two months blowing up Houthis and no one seriously cared. As long as there's no boots on the ground, no one is going to give a fuck. If you abandon Trump over airstrikes you're a short sighted moron who, I guess, would rather allow the people who will flood America with the third world into power. And no, DeSantis wouldn't be able to get elected, much less get shit done, he's a charisma black hole.

The worst thing, is that when nothing does happen, the whiners won't acknowledge being wrong, they won't apologize to the plan-trooosters, they'll just move on to bitching about the next perceived slight, like emotionally unstable spiritual women.. They're just here to demoralize you. It's one thing to make a reasonable criticism, it's another to ree about it endlessly and ineffectually.
This is why I'm being a bull right now on Trump's side. It's not because I'm a Jewish shill, fuck no. Trump is MY PRESIDENT. And frankly there is no one that can replace him. If there is to be a "war" it will be thunder and lightning for a week, unleashing the full might of the MIC- then silence. Iran will be fucking gone because Trump did it right the first time. He is the God Emperor. He fights to win, not for trivial losing battles.
 
Meanwhile the National Association of Realtors outspends every PAC. When will Congress stop supporting the Realtor Jews and start supporting America?
legitimate question tbh

Unfortunately plays extremely well in Texas.

As he is getting raped in a federal prison for the rest of his life, I wonder if he will ever be like "You know, maybe this wasn't worth the approval from Reddit." And as his ass is getting filled with semen, he will hear the Mexican janitor outside his cell sweeping and talking on his blue tooth saying "Me alegro de que los estén deportando a todos."

even ignoring how Biblically illiterate the statement is, it really irritates me that some Evangelicals will screech about the "evils" of Christian Nationalism wanting a return to laws that reflect Christian values then turn around and say shit like this.

apparently domestically we're suppose to be an agnostic liberal democracy, but when it comes to foreign policy suddenly we're a theocracy.

That's the dream for most Dems, but I highly doubt it. The isolationists among Trump's base are a loud, but small minority
Polls among Trump voters consistently show a very small appetite for foreign interventions.

(And as for the evangelicals, they’re going to vote GOP no matter what. And even among the evangelicals, support for Israel among the younger generation is far smaller than what it used to be.)

The problem is all the disaffected voters that Trump attracted. They’re strongly MAGA and opposed to foreign adventures.

Let’s just assume that you’re correct in saying that isolationists are a minority. The problem is that Trump didn’t win by huge margins. 2-3 million at most.

Now what do you think will happen in the midterms when that minority stays home, and fired up Dem voters hit the polls?

On top of that consider what higher energy prices will do to the economy because Trump decided to help Israel set the region on fire.

I hate that instead of vicious realpolitik Machiavellians or hyper theocratic Christian nationalists, we get the gayest parts of both as our government
 
Maybe stop standing in the middle of an active road you fucking retards. If this was a permitted street closure that is one thing but odds are it was just a bunch of fucktards pressing their luck.
People blocking traffic at the very least deserve the same Obstructing/Impeding Traffic tickets cops write when they want to ticket someone for a moving violation after a pull over and find out the driver has a mostly-clean driving record.

Otherwise, I will agree with the Joker and say anyone blocking moving traffic gets what they deserve.

It's funny because I've been in fast food joints when this happens and they all are suited up in gear that almost looks like hazmat suits.
With the way people have treated public restrooms over the past 2-3 decades, andnot just in fast food joints, I'd refuse to clean one without Hazmat-tier gear.

Everybody who yelled in that video had a foreign accent.
I always marvel that the same people who live in the US and claim to speak little to no English somehow manage to know all the insults and profanity quite fluently. :story:

The people who need affordable housing don’t fit in in rich white neighborhoods. They don’t belong there. People (white) moved there for a quiet peaceful town and (this is probably the most important part) good schools.
Affordable housing seems to be another of those concepts that sounds like a good idea in theory and has been corrupted to destroy strong neighborhoods. In my part of KiwiLand, certain local governments require a minimum allocation of "affordable" housing. Supposedly, it's to help low income seniors afford a place if they can't otherwise afford the upkeep and taxes on a traditional house. Unfortunately, DEI policies often get tied into the affordable provisions and the units go to minorities who either ruin them beyond repair or cause trouble in their new neighborhoods. Meanwhile, the senior and other low income citizens who would benefit from such places don't get them and continue to struggle to pay their bills and keep a roof over their heads.

Happy to hear the news, but I dislike the fact it's going to take 18-24 months to do this. It's as if the food companies and their lobby groups are hoping for something to happen during midterms that gives them reason to not have to follow through with this promise.

What makes the African American situation worse is people who try to do the right thing are called "white" and bullied. Some of them rise above it, get the fuck out, and do something proper with their lives, but those people are now few and far between because now college subsidies go to the niggiest, noggiest black women instead of enterprising and intelligent individuals.
It's a shame after seeing the big push for black people to educate themselves as a way for self-betterment. Kiwis old enough may remember all the historically black colleges whose mission was just that and the United Negro College Fund whose purpose was to help those who wanted to attend college but couldn't afford it. Now, black people are told education is a bad thing and those taking advantage today was further persuaded to embrace the oppression narrative instead of bettering themselves to be self-sufficient.

I always find it amusing whenever a music artist tells supporters of Trump to not come to their shows. Like... okay? I mean, I'm pretty sure they weren't listening to your bullshit in the first place, but yeah, sure, if it makes you feel better, go ahead and vent to your echo chamber. The latest one seems to be Red Jumpsuit Apparatus who was last relevant maybe during the 2000s Alternative scene.
I saw the post making its way across social media today. Many people seeing it had a "Literally who?" moment. I'd love to see some turnabout and see concert venues tell the guy he and his band can't perform there because he supported Harris. The salt would be amazing because of all the "Hey, you can't do that!" responses it would evoke.
 
When I voted for this fucking rapist orange retard it was to prevent forever wars that the niggeress and her ilk would get us into. If this diabetic obese motherfucker gets us into another war i will root for jihad on him and his family
Not gonna lie, former Trump voter here. This is fucking hilarious watching Trump crash and burn. But in all seriousness we can't let this guy get the nuclear codes.
That flagpole prevented hundreds of thousands of Neocons and Israelis from cooming at the Trump announcement of US war with Iran. :semperfidelis:
Stephen Miller doesn't only hate immigrants. He also hates troons:
He's shaping up to be my number one favorite member of Trump's presidency so far... Imagine how much shit would get done if every cabinet member was just Stephen Miller clones

All I really ask for is some realpolitik, though at this point I also wouldn't mind an actual fascist who puts Whites first. Yes part of it is just to own the libs.
 
I gota wonder, what if that last 'new' missile launch did have a nuke warhead, the one that was intercepted by THAAD. Would we ever even know about it? I'm pretty sure they're going over every downed one and impact to scour for isotopes. If one did fizzle or was intercepted by THAAD/Sling, would there be a nuke retaliation or only if one actually reached TA or Haifa and went off.
