Well you might want to start firing off those emails to the editor. Or the angry BlueSkys.


I am a little mad about this unbelievable power grab, yes

You mean unconstitutional like forgiving student loan debt?


Biden attempted to exploit a legal loophole. Trump is straight-up ignoring the limits to the executive office. Do you see the difference?

We aren’t animals, we are human beings. No developed nation on this planet is an ethnostate. Even the empires of old, from Alexander to Mansa Musa, were multicultural. 

 

That's why they were empires, not nations

 

There are several ethnostates currently in existence. Israel, Turkey, Belgium (bi-ethnic) are some such. Japan is arguably a de facto ethnostate as well.

 

That you're this deeply committed to maintaining only the most ridiculous of the Libertarians' ideas is puzzling, to be honest. No borders, no nation. Ask any failed society.

You should go to a twitter account called oilfieldrando. He loves researching these grants and I’ll tell ya they’re hilarious. When we’re sending millions of dollars to open trans community centers in Somalia you you might agree these grants should be shut down

And how are those countries doing? Israel can’t survive without slurping up our money, Turkey is a malaise country that is only just now turning around, Japan’s birth rate is falling off a cliff, and Belgium is struggling to stay together amid conflict between Fleming and Wallonia. The U.S. has been the strongest nation in the world because of our commitment to multiculturalism and immigration. 
 

I’m not an anarchist. I don’t agree with the “no borders” people. Even Robert Nozick was against that. But I am for the simple and free immigration of people to nations as they see fit. Immigration should take six months or less, at most. It’s illiberal to say one man is not allowed to live in the same place as his neighbor.

The US was 90% White Christian inside of living memory.

The U.S. is a nation of immigrants. This has never changed. I said “multicultural” for a reason. Or are you equating a white man from Russia to a white man from Ireland?

Even if you repeat this lie one million times, it will never be true.

“the U.S. is a nation of 100 or so odd pilgrims on the Mayflower and no one else” isn’t much of a motto

There were more settlers than the Mayflower.

 

Even if the US were a "nation of immigrants," that doesn't necessitate that we allow the third world to use my country as a landfill for their worst and dumbest, which in every practical sense is what's happening. Just look how they kick and scream about deportations. If it were actually true that these people made America better, certainly they could make the hellholes that they came from better, no?

 

"I want to live here." "No." ⬅️ If you can't have that exact conversation in your country you don't have a country.

So, Trump’s executive office decided last night to pause ALL Federal grants and “obligations.” His goal was to sniff out “DEI” and vague Marxist nonsense. Naturally, Medicare and social security are left alone, but the order says nothing about Medicaid. 

This is going to be catastrophic for nonprofits and schools across the country that receive grant funding. It’s also unclear whether or not this affects educational grants like Pell Grants. 
 

Here’s the thing. This is unconstitutional! The President does NOT have the authority to override spending bills passed by Congress.

 

This will almost certainly get shut down by an emergency injunction. However, it’s baffling that Trump thinks he can do this.

Oh boy, they are messing with the 4-way-stop-to-roundabout and stacked housing money.  They've done it now!!

is Meals on Wheels woke now? You are also avoiding the main point that Trump’s action is illegal.

What is your cutoff for what is a REAL American?

 

We are taking anyone who wants to take the Pledge of Allegiance and become an American. That’s it for me. Some become doctors and engineers, some restaurant owners, some drive uber. That is their choice. The nation is stronger for it. 
 

No one has the right to tell the average person “you can’t live here.”

And this, right here, is proof positive that you don't believe in nationhood at all. You want an economic zone that's unlivable for anyone with a sense of smell.

On what authority do you have to make this decision? Do some people have this authority and others do not? Why? What gives them this authority? Man? God?

Leftists are wrong 100% of the time because they worship lies and ugliness instead of God and somehow believe it makes them better people.

 

Good talking to you roundy, hope the house is all good. Flush that water heater every once in a while!

Im a Catholic, big dog, which is why I get so angry at these policies designed to hurt people. I’ve also got Holst’s Planets Suite playing at the moment, for what it’s worth. 
 

Hope you come around someday.

People love Jupiter but I've always been partial to Saturn, the fifth movement.
