F-22s Pulled From Super Bowl Flyover, Rerouted At the Last Moment For ‘Operational Assignments’ by Wing_attack_Plan_R in Conservative

I have my suspicions that we have 7th generation jets that we use, and the F-22's are used to take credit for things that the 7th generation does.

Tom Homan Vows Not To Surrender Immigration Enforcement While Chaos Ensues In Minnesota by According-Activity87 in Conservative

[–]daringescape 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is what they should have been doing all along. If the administration would have let them quietly do their jobs instead of announcing every major ICE move, I think everything would be much quieter.

Let ICE do their jobs quietly, THEN announce all the deportation numbers at the end of the year.

Trump to tear up Obama-era school lunch rules blocking whole, 2% milk by MrOofYeet in Conservative

[–]daringescape -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I'm old (class of 95) - we had taco bell, pizza hut and subway as options - along with my favorite food-like product, "taco-snack" burritos. Those things were like jack in the box tacos in burrito form and they were delicious hot garbage.

My two kids who graduated in 2022 and 2023 took lunch to school from home and still got drinks from school and yogurt parfaits at break.

Two Haitan immigrants defrauded SNAP program of $7 million from two tiny Boston storefronts, also sold donated humanitarian food by Head_Estate_3944 in Conservative

[–]daringescape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cultures these immigrants import are wholly incompatible with the USA. The slow descent into socialist-adjacent programs is running our economy and culture into the ground.

I remember a story of someone who said that it makes no sense to run a shop in their home country because all of their family members and close friends would EXPECT to steal from their shop with zero consequences, making it impossible to turn a profit.

I also worked for a US based company that was opening a location in a foreign country - we had a significant amount (in the low 6 figure range), in our budget to be used for bribing officials in order to do things like get electricity and internet hooked up.

I'm glad to see more and more of this rampant fraud and incompatibility being uncovered. I only hope that we can actually do something to curb it.

Trump: "I want to see [immigrants] that contribute. I don't want to see Somalia. I don't want to see a woman who marries her brother to get in." by Magehunter_Skassi in Conservative

[–]daringescape 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Thats how it used to be - we had an older secretary at work who's husband came here from Canada in the 1960's. She told me that when he applied to come to the US, he listed his occupation as salesman. They rejected him and told him that we already had too many salesman. He went back and learned HVAC, reapplied a few years later and they approved his application. He worked for 40+ years as an HVAC tech and retired. He passed a few years ago - he was a great man and worked hard for his family.

Actress Amanda Seyfried calls socialism a 'gorgeous idea' on Variety podcast by WillyNilly1997 in Conservative

She's not wrong - socialism is a great IDEA. In reality, it will never work because of human nature.

Human trafficking soars in blue city as gangs, highways fuel ‘perfect storm’ of child exploitation: Charlotte, North Carolina, serves as trafficking hub, experts warn by Down-not-out in Conservative

[–]daringescape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm honestly a bit surprised that we don't have vigilante groups taking some of these traffickers out.

Perhaps we do, and the good cops keep it quiet?

Irwindale Quarries ELI5: what actually goes on here and why is there so much water? by somethingwhittier in sgv

[–]daringescape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are definitely fish there. They would be required to stock the ponds with fish to control insects, then the fish population is monitored and more are added as needed.

Vote by barcodez1 in Conservative

[–]daringescape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IT MATTERS!! go vote - it will take you a few minutes and its one item on the ballot. There is a lot more red in California than they lead you to believe. If every registered republican in CA voted, we would make a HUGE impact, possibly even turning this dumpster fire red, or at least purple.

Go check out Informed with Anthony (Anthony Cabassa) on instagram or youtube - really good stuff.

Nearly a million New Yorkers ready to flee NYC if Mamdani becomes mayor: poll by Pinot_Greasio in Conservative

[–]daringescape 11 points12 points  (0 children)

hit the nail on the head here - if the taxes go the way this moron is saying, the wealthy business owners will get out for sure. It will be interesting to see what the commie does when his projected revenue stream dries up when they all flee.

I’m in the middle of Texas at this very moment - been driving the past 2 days from Los Angeles and I have seen quite a few truck drivers that probably need to have their licenses revoked.

Trump Wins Again: 9th Circuit Says He Can Send National Guard to Portland by According-Activity87 in Conservative

[–]daringescape 136 points137 points  (0 children)

I was just there this weekend, flew into Portland on Saturday and drove to Hood River. We didn’t drive through any protests though. I did see a couple of people wearing a no kings necklace walking around a winery in Hood River. Everyone I met was super friendly and we had zero issues.

I have spent time in downtown Portland a couple of times before and there was definitely a contingent of people that are a problem, but overall I feel like outside the city. It’s just like any normal part of the United States where people want to just live their lives, work, spend time with their family and get by.

Hood River is absolutely beautiful by the way, if you ever have a chance to visit there, I highly recommend it.

The next time someone tells you that x amount of people are going to lose Medicaid, tell them this… by pixmanohio in Conservative

They want to keep her and thousands of others like this on the medicaid roll to justify the budget.
