How far away from a detention facility does it have to be before someone can install a network of trail cams livestreaming to a channel called Gator Gourmet?

Hell, if the facility's up for it, they can install those cameras right there on the buildings and charge for livestreaming broadcast rights! Help recoup the minimal costs of camera maintenance and operation.

Circumcision was so the Jewish mother halved her punishment period for bringing another sinner (boy) into the world.

Not quite. It was an oath of loyalty to the Great I AM, one that was replaced by Baptism once Saint Paul started preaching to the masses. Bringing another soul into the world was God's command to the early humans; it was not considered a sin, but rather a Divine command.

This is why your dick hardens once you hit puberty, and you start seeing the fairer sex in a different way. It's God telling you to touch grass and give Him more souls to bless.

Does it even matter that the USA has infinite debt that will never be paid? What are the other countries going to do? Stop trading with the US?

We also own a lot of their debt. Debt is being traded around between nations in the same way Pokémon cards are traded around by kids.

heard tell from further up-thread that ICE had its budget increased by an order of magnitude

That’s because the swamp knows it can take care of that through administrative means.

It doesn’t matter how much you increase ICE budgets, if a handful of judges can gum up the works.

But not paying for healthcare for illegals? Now that can actually make a difference. Shit, they may even self deport!

First of all because it’s none of our business.

Secondly, because it invariably leads to: “How can we make people in Uzbekistan more open minded and gay?!”

It’s really simple: Academia is chock full of communist Globohomo types who want to “make the world a better place”.

(See also: The long march through the institutions.)

If you set up an influence peddling operation, sooner or later it’ll attract these faggots, who’ll hire more of their own, colonize it and take it over for their own purposes.

A more practical answer is that power vacuums created when the enemy you undermine suddenly collapses can lead to unforseen problems like an even stronger enemy stepping in to fill the void left behind

This is also by and large the reason the powers that be dont want Russia totally defeated. A collapsed Russian Federation means war for the fate of Siberia and the Arctic
 
"Partial verdict" is in for the Diddy Trial.

Jury is currently deadlock on something that every American hates with it's broad reach... RICO FUCKIN' CHARGES.

Why did they need to get him medical attention? Dumping his corpse in Whocaresistan would have the same effect on Americans as dropping him off alive. I suppose the bleeding on the flight would be a bit messy, but there have been worse messes in airplanes before.

Just give his ass a muzzle next time and some kevlar mittens, he won't be able to bite anything then.

Right, okay. Because it totes sounds believable a cannibal was arrested and started eating his own arms

Dude didn't want to be deported so badly he'd tear his own flesh to not have to go. I don't see how that's hard to believe with the animals ICE has been capturing. A fox will do the same thing when caught in a trap.

Well yes it does.

First of all, because eventually someone will say: “You know, I don’t think they’ll ever pay up!” And the whole stack of debt certificates becomes virtually worthless.

Secondly, and more importantly: WE PAY INTEREST ON THAT DEBT.

The cost of servicing US debt are already as much as the pentagon budget. Every year. And it only gets worse. Welcome to the near future where most of your tax dollars will go towards paying interest for the debt they created 5, 10 years previously.

I swear, some of you going: “BIG BRAIN MOMENT! DEBT DOESNT MATTER!!” Is like watching some nigger suddenly decide that he’s not going to pay his credit cards, because what can they do?

The nigger doesn't control the global economy and have the power to turn the Earth into a fireball.

The swamp is the moat. A great big grouchy alligator-filled entertainment moat that goes on for miles and miles...

I'm thinking of it being on an old one lane road in Monroe County. They'd have to dig that out, add tons of water, let the swamp do the rest. There could be a boat station to and from the facility and the road.

Addendum: @inetsone - Meanwhile, in Haiti:

This is true. However, as the reserve currency of the world, we're able to do 2 things which make this slightly irrelevant.

1) Create artificial scarcity and bottlenecks of our currency. Basically, impoverishing other countries in a push pull game. This leaves them indebted to us.

2) Use #1 to power play control of their resources in a way where, the entire globe basically pays tribute to the US, sending us their... well, everything.

It's not a perfect arrangement. Not by any means. There is a lot wrong with it and you could even say unethical. However, our wealth as a country (contra interest) has been on the backs of this system and the rest of the world.

A lot of what you see happening tho (middle class disappearing) is partly a result of more people wanting a cut into that system but it's questionable whether that's possible. Also the ruling class at the top requires ever more money to keep their game going... which can't continue forever.

It would take Biden a month or more to do that, and he'd call AT&T Bell phones, you know the thing with the rotary dial. Anyway we would be playing outside with the white kids and poor kids when the one phone the city had rang to tell us the hindenburg was coming by. And that's when I realized corn pop was on it and it burned like the MAGA republicans want to do with our democracy.

If the bolded is true then everything you said before these sentences is irrelevant.

What I said is merely descriptive. It is how the system works. Bankers have told me not to explain it to reg people. They want to keep this stuff in the shadows. But it's important to know because as you note, the elite class can't keeping sucking up every dime forever... hopefully. So, you're 100% correct.

A similar, old example is how stocks used to be listed and traded in fractions. Wall Street bigly resisted changing over to decimalization because they didn't want it to be clear or easy for reg people to buy stocks. This only changed around 2000. So think about that... we were still trading stocks in the US using denominations based on the Spanish Real like it was 1784.

I have mixed feelings on the thing itself but the left's response to shit like this is a perfect example of their hypocrisy.

Vietnamese, native americans, etc. use very simple nature based solutions instead of complex technological ones? Stunning, brave, so smart, they're so connected to mother nature, white man dumb.

Trump does it? What an idiot he doesn't understand how the world works we live in the age of technology idiot! Walls don't work moats don't work reeeee!

In general the left seems to not understand that the business of violence hasn't fundamentally changed all that much in thousands of years. Rockets, tanks, and jets are all kind of a war of their own but man to man things still get dirty.

You see it in the way they talk about policing, they imagine there must be some more effecient way to deal with a cracked out nigger waving a machete, they're so used to online interactions where you can just change a value to make something not allowed or bannable, they can't comprehend that in the real world you have to physically make people do shit.
