Y’all literally did this to us. Canceled pensions, ran up debts, etc… Baby Boomers were self entitled jerks who took full advantage of the American Dream and made sure that no one else coming behind them will have a shot at the same thing. And there’s never been a more “Nero” president than the boomer that’s in office right now… tearing down the East Wing of the White House to build a gilded ballroom during the last shutdown. The fact that you would bring up Nero and not recognize the resemblance of DJT to Nero is just more proof of the disconnect between boomers and everybody else.

Judges interpret the laws passed by Congress. If the cuts were originated in the House of Reps as the constitution intended, there would be no need for the President to make cuts that could be turned over by judges because those cuts were in violation of the legislation passed by Congress. Say what you want about Texas, but we’re obligated to spend no more than we take in… a balanced budget is a part of our constitution. We don’t even try to pass a budget at the federal level anymore-hence the shutdown that we’re in again, pending another increase in the debt limit. And our conservative president wants to just do away with the debt limit so the government can just borrow us back into servitude to the rest of the planet.

I don’t know your age, but you either hate your parents or grandparents, or in the least, don’t respect them. The generation that made the world safe is mostly gone (WWII). They produced the boomers…..myself. Me and my generation will be gone soon enough and there will be absolutely no respect, morality, honesty, or justice. Hello, it’s already happening. Look at NYC and California. I never hear any libs complain about either of those…..why? With all its problems, this is the greatest civilization in the history of the world. Don’t be a Nero.

OLD SCHOOL Playoff Warm Up Games

I honestly don’t think Bridge City would gain anything from playing East Chambers… Nothing against EC but they aren’t that great this year. Now Bridge City vs Orangefield would be better -
When we talk about bloated spending at the federal level, it’s important to remember where that money goes. It’s salaries for government employees, grants to local governments, payments to contractors and suppliers who rely on government contracts for their existence. Heck, then those payments to employees and contractors create economic gains are then taxed. Cutting spending reduces tax revenues, too. It’s a vicious spiral. The debt is money that we borrowed to maintain a lifestyle that we can’t afford. Our very standard of living is a lie… we haven’t produced enough to pay for it. When we tighten our belts, it’s not just government that’s going to feel it… we all are going to feel it.

I support this, regardless of who’s in office. I’m concerned that the cuts have often appeared to be politically based, as in punishing groups/agencies we don’t support, while ignoring bloat in agencies that we do support. I’d like to see a blanket, 10% reduction in spending in every department mandated, with the stipulation that IF cuts result in a loss of services to the American people (closing national parks during a shutdown, for instance), the head of that agency will be removed from his/her/their post.

As of early 2026, the Trump administration has significantly reduced the federal workforce, with reports indicating a decline of approximately 220,000 to over 300,000 federal positions since the start of his second term There’s some of your cut spending, how many presidents have talked about shrinking the government, and look here but of course….no credit given

I wish they would channel that same energy toward addressing the Epstein predators who are truly out there. -

Dude killed daughter over alleged Trump argument
tvc184 replied to Big girl's topic in Political Forum
It certainly not funny that the woman was killed but kind of humorous in the story is that the coroner in the United Kingdom ruled it unlawful. On a Texas law note and we certainly don’t know the facts, they should likely have been charges filed. Killing someone in Texas with criminal negligence, which is basically having your head up your butt, is a felony of Criminal Negligent Homicide. If the father was holding the handgun and shot his daughter, at the very least I don’t see how they did not indict him for at least the criminally negligent homicide. -

The point is that Trump’s name was in the article. The father was drunk and they could’ve just as well been arguing whether beans go in Texas chili. -

The problem that we’re in now is that with 39 Trillion in debt, we can’t stand anymore tax cuts. “Trickle Down” is a proven long-term failure. Yes, it gives the economy a short term bump, like when Reagan cut taxes and primed the economy in the early 80s… but it lead to the tax increases under HW Bush that had to happen. We’re about 10 years too late on increasing taxes to slow the growth of the debt, and it’s gonna look like the austerity period in Greece around here if it ever happens. Unfortunately, we’ve got the Bankrupter-in-Chief calling the shots and everybody on both sides of the aisle in Congress knows that the only way to keep their job is by promising gifts to the voters who are largely selfish and stupid. Tariffs aren’t the answer, tax cuts aren’t the answer…. We’ve got to cut our spending and that’s harder than ever now that the interest in our debt is the second largest component of our federal spending. At this point more tax cuts are like getting a payday loan to buy a steak when you’ve already got them all over town. Cut spending, but not just on the other guys’ projects… cut something you love.

There used to be a day when playoff warm up games were hyped up and a thing. Can anyone remember some good ones from the 80s and 90s? I’m sure this doesn’t happen anymore with 4 teams and two separate divisions per district. But could you imagine this: All games played at Montagne Center: Game 1 - Bridge City v East Chambers Game 2 - WB v Atascocita Game 3 - BU v Katy Seven Lakes
