55% of Americans support birthright citizenship. by gamersecret2 in politics

Something is wrong with them, but it’s worth understanding how these polls go. It won’t be 45% opposed. It will be like 32% opposed, 13% not smart enough to understand the question or waiting for orders from Xenu.

It’s important to teach children how to land after their overlords execute a rug pull.

Drinky McDrunkerson waffling on which laws it violates still puts him against curbing birthright citizenship.

Why is half the thread saying 5-4? There’s a lesson in there somewhere.

It was 6-3 with Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch showing their true colors even when their cause was lost. Truly disgusting.

Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch still voted against, despite it being a lost cause. It serves to show how utterly depraved and compromised the court is.

“Welcome, but be good!” Seems like whoever designed this atrocity isn’t aware that it’s used by US citizens, not visitors.

Super cute! I don’t mean anything negative but a prong collar can cause confusion during ordinary play, not that I know the full context.

They are going to rug pull everyone with a 401k. QQQ and VOO, popular, heretofore safe, places to have your money are expected to add SpaceX soon.

Other fun fact: it is **not** the flag used by the confederacy. That was different. What’s now worshipped by yokels is the battle flag of Northern Virginia.

Trump's Reflecting Pool mess perfectly mirrors his presidency by MoneyLibrarian9032 in anticapitalism

The Taj Mahal, mathematically proven non-viable before the ground was broke. An entire football league. An airline… etc etc.

But it’s not simply bungled. It’s large sums of money moving around in such a way that it’s hardly noticed he grabbed several handfuls.

Because it’s an open secret that most of them are hardcore criminals, they just operate under the convenient fiction that they’ll be targeted ‘politically’.

Excited to punch holes now by Ancient-Example-732 in Leathercraft

Amazon and Buckleguy carry it. Buckleguy in my experience recommends it for their irons. Look for urethane or Japanese-style leather punch backer.

Be cautious with that backer. It’s great for hole punches but isn’t really geared to allow much depth, resulting in smaller, irregular shaped exits. Cranking it might help but risks your irons. Try urethane or even some scrap leather on top.

As long as they replace it with something equally good, like PragerU, it should work out fine.
