NYTimes: Finish Wall

Posted By Mel Maki

And therefore the wall is a fantasy. Ok!

NYTimes: Finish Wall

Posted By Mel Maki

You are sure "he thought about it." Of course the General said it because the Germans could simply drive around the Maginot Line. A wall is effective for illegals because Border Patrol can be waiting where they will be. But do you really believe the same number of illegals will go around the wall as have been going through the wall? Really?

They will close the gaps in the wall but some will still try to go around.

Buy Your Handgun In This State Without A Permit/Background Check From An Unlicensed Dealer

Posted By Mel Maki

Something I have not researched but is making the rounds against Biden. Chipman is Biden's man at ATF (Biden called it AFT)) and Chipman wants people that fail the gun background check to go to jail. But it is claimed that Hunter lied on the background check about drug usage. Photos on his computer show him using drugs. Will they put Hunter in jail? This is more ammo for people against Chipman as head of ATF.

Another charge against Chipman is that he claimed the cult people at Waco shot down two helicopters with fifty cal rifles. None were shot down. It is crazy if a man that worked for years at ATF said that.

I gotta comment on your "(no surprises there)"
You are so driven by your politics that you are unable to discern fact from fiction. You have to find a link.

I don't know the truth of the claims. You are saying they are BS.
And when I said you have to find a link, I wasn't telling you to find a link. I'm saying that is the only way you have to know if anything is truth or fiction.

Matt Gaetz says he's under federal investigation for sexual misconduct

So much shit could have been avoided if he was even half of a human being.

Yeah, I don't like the guy, never have, never will, and it'll never change. 
It is a known fact some Dems think Dems have a better sense of humor.
A lot of younger Dems get political humor and political news from late night tv and Hollywood is liberal.
Conservatives are likely to poke fun at stereotypes and be criticized for it.
Some of this depends on who is the president.
Reagan had some humor and Anti-Clinton jokes were common.
The good NY Governor Cuomo might have followed Trump's lead taking advantage of the vaccine.
If a person watched only CNN he would be a step slow learning about news that doesn't help Dems.

This is a good example. To liberals it is politics first. Late night, everybody shrieks like trained seals to some jokes that are not close to being that funny. You won't even admit Miller was a good comedian. Politics first.

Just being snarky isn't funny. Most really good humor is rooted in truth.
And liberal politics is truth! Got it
