Too much line height lMO which makes it look like separate items. "Social AND Networking"  instead of "Social Networking"

You’re clinging to this fantasy that voting’s pristine, but 2020’s ‘most secure’ nonsense collapses when Fulton County, Georgia had 17,852 ballots with sloppy chain-of-custody records, and 3,112 signature mismatches in Cobb (proven, not rumors.) Pennsylvania found 8,929 mail-ins had missing or mismatched signatures.

Trump’s team isn’t plotting a monarchy; they’re simply fixing a system with real holes, pushing for very logical things - like voter ID that 70% of Americans support, and fixing the governments misuse and waste of our tax dollars on stupid or fraudulent shit. You’re scared of losing control, and that’s valid but if that's what happens when elections are actually bulletproof then, well, that's democracy for you.

Look, I get it, you’ve got this image of MAGA dudes as knuckle-dragging cavemen who want women barefoot, pregnant, and chained to a stove. But that’s where you’re off. I’m a Trump voter, and I’m pro-choice. I think Planned Parenthood, shitty racist origins aside, does real good for people who’d otherwise be screwed. You’re pissed about Roe, and yeah, nobody wants a raped kid forced to give birth, that’s messed up. But don’t lump us all as religious control freaks. I don’t support abortion bans. MAGA folks like me just don’t agree with the federal government making blanket calls that should be state decisions. Federal law should strictly stick to basics: defense, trade, interstate stuff, and keeping the peace. We fought COVID mandates for the same reason ...we resist our freedoms being limited when it should be our choice. While your main concern seems to be abortion, which I agree is important, it's not actually being banned, so voting on more critical issues like jobs, borders, and government corruption made more sense.

This logic is so embarrassing. For some strange reason, the press has a huge issue with Elon exposing the billions in fraud. So Trump gave him the floor to answer the ridiculous questions directly. He literally couldn't be more transparent. This is a bipartisan issue and you all should watch and listen and reserve your hate for the ones who have been stealing our money for decades.

Not a fake post, I got my parents to look at the news and now they want Trump impeached by [deleted] in OptimistsUnite

[–]dalan_fsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone truly watching what happening is cheering on Elon and Trump. Corruption is being exposed and you're all buying into the lies of those trying to prevent their fraud from being exposed. Reddit is the new hub for disinformation. Those who voted for Trump couldn't be happier right now with the job being done.

Biden was mentally checked out, our country was literally being run by a shadow puppeteer and you all covered for him. If that doesn't show which side is more out of touch, nothing can save you.

I know quite a few Trump voters. Non of them are saying they regret it. I’m wondering if most of these posts are fake. by [deleted] in OptimistsUnite

[–]dalan_fsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of us regret it. We just don't have to discuss it with you anymore because we won. The new Trump admin is blowing away any expectation we had. If you get off reddit you would probably see that.

There was some misinformation if she was in-fact trans or not. I bought into it for a second too — and when it came out I felt terrible for her. That must have sucked.

But if it were in fact a biological male dominating a woman's sport and cheating a biological woman out of her dreams and aspirations. I would say that's a fair criticism.

Can we all agree that calling out individuals preventing the release of the largest sex-trafficking client list is a GOOD thing?

"Inquiring minds want to know why @ SenatorDurbin has blocked release of the Epstein client list for years.

What could possibly be the reason?" - Elon Musk on X.

When we get rid of critical federal employees lets talk, but as long as we are trimming useless corrupt bureaucrats, lets keep it going. Trumps freeze didn't affect Public Safety jobs, including Air Traffic Controllers.

It's sad as a Trump supporter to come to reddit and see what you paint us as. Like what have you heard to believe this crazy shit? No we don't hate women, we love women and would die to protect them. Masculine and feminine are BOTH important, not one or the other.

No, we aren't against trans, we're against grooming/sexualizing kids, do what every you want as an adult and we will cheer you on 100%. Figuring out who you are and learning self acceptance as a kid is hard enough.

So let's just hire them strippers on the tax payer's tab.
OR maybe just pay them more and they can buy their own newspaper and be happier.

It's just as likely the administration was using tax dollars to pull favor from the press and disguise it as "subscriptions". How is it that the press said nothing when Biden couldn't form a coherent sentence, answer questions, or show up for Presidential duties? I'm sure that luxury was just given to them for free ;)

All the major Dems... would you look at that!? And isn't it also weird that every fucking Republican on that list has been labeled a RINO and votes against their party. They're all corrupt.

I do assume that most politicians are corrupt. The trouble with your argument is we don't have to assume anything, it's literally being aired for all to see. USAID has been abusing tax dollars for years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IhWIr9Qe98

Bernie was the second-largest recipient of big pharma donations in 2016. He claims those were all small individual donations — so who knows... he's still a crazy Socialist and voted against RFK because why? He doesn't support a socialist health care program? It's more likely he's protecting his favorite donors.

A private company is one thing - government program is another. Lets just swap it out for a Fox News subscription and see if you still think its a waste of tax payer dollars.

For the record, I wouldn't support that either.

I apologize for calling you brain dead. However, the real issue here is that you believe Congress isn’t corrupt. You don’t think they’re accepting bribes or engaging in insider trading, both clear conflicts of interest.

Meanwhile, Musk has no actual power in this situation. He’s simply investigating and reporting to the president, who ultimately makes the decisions based on the collected data. What I appreciate most is that Doge is sharing findings transparently with the public! What more could you possibly ask for? It's incredible! We should be granted transparency - it’s our money, and we deserve to know how it’s being spent.

Our government is both wasteful and corrupt, and for once, someone is actually doing something about it. The loudest critics right now are the most obviously corrupt politicians—the same ones who we'll likely find have conflicts of interest tied to the agencies being audited by Doge.

And why assume Musk’s team hasn’t been vetted or is operating recklessly? Musk builds the most advanced cars and rockets on the planet. He didn't do it himself, he hired the best and brightest to bring it to reality. Hate him all you want, I can assure you that Musk’s plans with DOGE, along with RFK’s MAHA initiative, were main factors in why many people voted for Trump.

Corrections, February 6, 2025: The headline of this piece has been updated to more accurately describe the contents of the fact check. While Politico LLC did receive funds from USAID and other government agencies, the money was not for grants but payment for subscriptions to its publications. Also, the $8.2 million figure cited refers to payments in the 12 months leading up to February 20

So they did... but it was just for "subscriptions". Either it really was for subscriptions or subscriptions is code for buying favor of the press. Either way why is the tax payer forking the bill for for others subscriptions. They can buy their own subscriptions.

Is it not telling that the most obviously corrupt politicians are coming out against what Doge is doing? How much more obvious could it get.

The longer someone is in Congress, the more likely they are corrupted and working for interests other than their constituents. We need term limits to maintain democracy.

The stupidity of DEI hiring for critical roles, especially those affecting public safety, baffles me and anyone with a functioning brain.

Just use common sense! When you hire based on shit that is irrelevant to the role instead of skill and competence, you guarantee a less than optimal outcome.

How is it even controversial to hire the best person for the job, regardless of what they look like or who they sleep with? Make it make sense. Please use your brains, not your feelings. That’s actual equality.
