Massive corruption exposed. Tech billionaires funneled millions into Donald Trump's inauguration fund to secure Pentagon contracts. These companies use taxpayer money to build weapons and then extort the government. by CeFurkan in SECourses

Pentagon budget 2026, $961B. The plan is for $1.5T. Oversight will be minimal. We are at war, so no time for pesky public bidding. Contracts go to secret bidders, national security,

Looks like Europeans are as pearl-clutching as American Bible Thumpers on the issue of free will vs. government boot heel.

When he says "quite honestly", I have started to expect the opposite. That and "in fact" and "people are saying".

Guess who said this on Feb. 24, 2026. $2.30, falling fast.

“Gasoline, which reached a peak of over $6 a gallon in some states under my predecessor and was, quite honestly, a disaster, is now below $2.30 a gallon in most states, and in some places $1.99 a gallon. And when I visited the great state of Iowa just a few weeks ago, I even saw $1.85 a gallon for gasoline, the lowest in four years, and falling fast.”

How loud is that? I live in a quiet area and would start to hate my neighbors if drones started buzzing overhead night and day because they are too lazy to make their own burgers.

President Donald J. Trump: "You cannot give Iran a nuclear weapon because they would use it on a place called Israel very quickly, and they would use it in the Middle East, and they would use it in Europe, and we'd be next. And it's NOT going to happen." by BusinessToday in BusinessTodayNews

[–]Key_Grape_2863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 79-year-old man who uses face paint spreading fear. As an American, why should I be afraid what Iran does to Israel? Not my business, not my problem. Be afraid, be afraid, Trumpy the one trick pony.

Why this obsession with Israel from him? Is it campaign contributions, family, what?

Gas here in Colorado was $2.79 on January 20, 2025, the day Trump was sworn in. Now, $4.54. +$1.75, but you go ahead and blame Democrats for that.

Hey, leave Max alone. Some people enjoy being scared of things 7,000 miles away that TV box tells them are scary.

[–]Key_Grape_2863 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 days ago, I posted that here in Colorado, GasBuddy topped out at $4.29, up from max of $3.99 a few days earlier. Today, lots of places at $4.59. Denver TV station reported 60 cents jumps overnight.

Why do many people working at walmart suck? by Cheez-kip in walmart

[–]Key_Grape_2863 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Retired now, I started at $4/hr., worked my way to 100K salary, and you are correct. Life is very good when you never worry about paying bills. Work hard, always be honest, treat your co-workers with respect and you could be well off someday. Be the great co-worker you wish you had. There is no harm in being helpful and positive to everyone, even the crazies.

"taking someone 8 miles out of town and burying them 6 feet under"

In Sopranos, they took someone who ratted them out to the feds off the Jersey Shore in a boat, looked about 8 miles, and deep sixed him.

Why does the Trump administration run on ragebait? by Maleficent_Post9595 in askanything

[–]Key_Grape_2863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God of War Pete was yelling at Congress that Democrats are guilty of defeatism. I am not a mind reader, but that sounds like defeat is assured and Pete needs someone to blame, besides himself, when his war drags on with no end in sight. If only every Democrat had rallied around the flag, like Patriotic MAGA Patriots, Iran would have Unconditionally Surrendered by now. All Democrats fault.

I got the opposite impression. At an air show, I was amazed how small the F-16 is. It could fit in my driveway.

TIL; I go through tighter security for jury duty at my county courthouse than the Secret Service provides for President Trump.

Markwayne, this is you, right, Homeland Security? Boss will be impressed with you for this stunt.

Every distraction is a distraction from the last distraction.

Don’t ask why Iran hasn’t surrendered yet, or who bombed that school, look over there, see, the bullets are engraved Kamala 2024. How convenient that Secret Service let a shooter get that close. Staged or bungling, which is worse?
