The greatest country in the history of the world is celebrating her birthday. Have a good time and be safe.

Celebrating another 4th down here on the beach. One thing about being down here, don't have to buy fireworks. Plenty being shot for us to watch on the beach.

Inflation at a 4 year low. Earnings up 3.8% Wages see biggest jump in 60 years. Airfare prices down 7.4% Gas prices down 38% Egg prices down 60% Child poverty rate down. Household wealth increasing. 1000 new millionaires every day. $14 Trillion new investments commitments coming into the USA. $80 Billion in tariffs already collect from foreign countries. Military recruitment skyrocketing. Zero border crossing in May. 160,000 of Bidens illegal immigrants deported, (75% were convicted criminals) Chinas economy collapsing. Iran's nuclear threat decimated. Wokeism collapsed, patriotism is booming.

I hear you, and I think that my opinion might change if I were closer to retirement. But the sad truth is that the money that you paid in was wasted. It’s not there anymore. The boomer mentality of “as long as I get mine, I couldn’t care less about what happens to those behind me” is appalling. It’s like those people who are like “but if I got a job, I’d lose my Medicaid.” The Social contract with America has destroyed the American ideas.

And also Brock King committed to TCU today.

Tank commits to Texas A&M

8725 according to CBP. 93% drop. [Hidden Content]

"Zero border crossing in May" I find that very very hard to believe. I would agree on it being much lower than before, but not zero.

Depends on if you’re Airborne or Space Force. By the way, we had the grunts, the squids, and the pukes. What are the Space Force people? Space Pukes?

Not sure how much Texas will be affected by Medicaid & ACA cuts at this time. Texas wasn’t one of the 40 states that expanded coverage & took the Fed bribe money for Medicaid expansion. So, the hit will be a lot less than other states. The ACA looks like it will roll back the extra money for premiums that were added during COVID unless addressed before end of year in a separate measure. So, costs will go up by a decent amount. Also, the original requirement of income verification every year is coming back. (This was the original requirement anyway. You had to prequalify for a plan every year.) The sign up period has also been shortened. For ACA coverage, my recommendation is to use a broker. A good broker won’t charge you anything as they’re paid by the insurance companies via a ‘headhunter’ type fee. We’ve always used TXInsurance.com LLC. Husband & wife team. Been around a long time & provide a great service. They handle everything for you. No cost and you never even have to fight with Healthcare.gov. They do it all.

[Hidden Content] Rather than just say this is misinformation from the White House, point out specific examples, I’m not a fan of some of the spending either but there’s a lot of nonsensical talking points being floated that folks are simply repeating. Personally, I wish they would start making cuts to Medicaid until it could be handed off to the states that chose to continue it. No need at the federal level and will always be easy to commit fraud.

I am perplexed; as well.

Is the military recruitment skyrocketing, or jumping, because apparently, there’s a difference. 😉

Happy 4th [Hidden Content]

….and I’ll hold you to your concerns with but-buts.

The tax cuts start immediately. The spending cuts are scheduled to begin after Trump leaves office.

Not thumping my chest, simply pointing out hypocrisy by folks like yourself that are now concerned with spending simply because Trump is in office when you had no concerns before. It’s called TDS, it’s real, and it’s entertaining sometimes.

SMH! Midterms can't get here quick enough... our founding fathers knew to much power with one side can cause major chaos.. we're witnessing it

This is good AND legit news, for those that can’t see it.

Thank you for your posts.

Anything good it's legit! Anything bad it's fake news! You can't make this stuff up

Hypocrits everywhere in politics! Not even worth arguing, reason I don't waste time responding to majority of folks on here who quote me... I'll say this site politics is waayyy better than smoaky. Moderators over there edit the posts they don't like or agree with. Constantly delete ppls posts even if within rules, they make up rules as they go.. I got politically banned over there a couple years ago for a meme I posted SMH... I can't post ova there, I can still read the comments tho.. clown @RETIREDFAN1is worst moderator ova there.. dude let that mod power on being able to delete and edit anything he doesn't like get to his head... mods ova here let things handle themselves within rules. I applaud em for that!

My 30 year old autistic son is on Medicaid due to his disability. Are you suggesting he get a job to support himself? I understand there is some abuse going on with these benefits but there are some people that need these benefits desperately.

It was everything he campaigned on......I know it's going to be an adjustment for you having a President pushing hard to do what he campaigned on.....heck, it's going to be an adjustment for you having the man nominated President actually running the country and signing his own bills...you'll be ok tho....take it slow
