    US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

    I think it's pretty simple honestly. Trump was convinced by Netanyahu to attack Iran selling the recent protests against the regime as evidence that the regime was teetering on the edge and a few well placed cruise missiles would finish them off. What he didn't say is that there is no party or...

    Look on the bright side. Do you really want a soon to be extremist Muslim state to a large navy that can project power?

    NYC council proposes $30/hour minimum wage

    I just throw quarters at the dancers. Maybe I'll have to up it to half dollars? Probably fitting that JFK is on that coin.

    Agreed. Companies like Blackrock are what's wrong with this country.

    Primary season is upon us.....

    I'm just happy that "Eyepatch McCain" won't be in Congress anymore. I had such high hopes for that guy. Turned out to only care about enriching himself through insider trading.

    If Churchill saw modern England today he'd let the Germans win WWII.

    We need a new doom and gloom thread. It has been a while.

    Filled up the truck and car yesterday. No lines. Just the price was easily 30 cents higher than it was just a few days ago.

    It's gotten to the point where I believe almost nothing I see online (or in print/tv for that matter) anymore. Even stuff I see in person makes me question thing occasionally.

    NYS Want To Block You From Asking AI Agents Questions.

    There's a difference in a trained educated professional using AI to do research and a completely different thing for someone with no training or experience in a particular field using AI to actually do the job/make the diagnosis. I do some work in the legal field. I'm seeing more and more...

    Isn't it amazing what a little planning could accomplish? That's too much to ask in NYS apparently.

    NYS Lawmakers Aren’t Compensated Enough

    ICE Barbie ( Kristi Noem) fired from DHS Secretary

    I'm certain she did everything Trump told her to do during her tenure as Homeland Security Secretary. But, now that it's unpopular somebody has to be the fall guy (fall gal in this case) and she's the sacrificial lamb. This new job is a low-profile golden parachute for her to take the fall.

    I see it all the time. Government pet projects (either run by .gov or their buddies in the private sector) get all sorts of passes on things like permits and SEQRA and what not. Folks like you and I would be held up for years in litigation if we tried to bypass any of the months long review...

    US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

    I mean, if I was in Iran (of any nationality) I would want to get out of dodge post haste. Though I wouldn't put it past the Chinese to be helping with the crack down on protestors, surveillance, and the Iranian nuclear program. Don't trust China. China is asshole.

    Technically it's the consulate (embassies are only located in national capitals). Still not good. At least 22 people killed in Pakistan as protesters try to storm US Consulate

    My hope and prayer is that the Islamist regime is relegated to the dustbin of history and the Iranian people can know true freedom. My expectation is that nothing good will come of this.

    Violence in Mexico after the death of cartel leader

    Would not want to be a gringo south of the border these days that's for sure. The cartels have far too much money and far too much power. I think it's pretty clear they're the ones who really are running the country. If it stays on Mexico's side of the border it's their problem as far as I'm...

    US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

    I almost am for regime change in Iran. The mullahs took what was once an advanced, westernized country and turned it into a third world theocratic shithole in short order. The economy is collapsing. Food is expensive and hard to come by. Jobs and investment are nonexistent. The young people that...

    AND...... Another mass shooting at a school. Far too many are dead.

    I've known a few Trans people (one fairly well). All and I mean ALL of them are mentally ill. No doubt in my mind. When you talk with them it's almost always the case that they have abuse (physical or sexual) in their background and this is their way to deal with it. More recently, it's been...

    Another Chinese biolab discovered in US

    Probably on all that farmland that they've bought over the past few years. Honestly, it'd be easier to unleash a disease that targets specific crops (cereals) that we need for ourselves and our livestock than it would be to target just plain 'ol white folks. They'd just starve us out. Or drive...

    Governor Hochul Signs ‘Medical Aid in Dying Act’, Bringing Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide to Troubled New York State

    The reason the government is doing this is a money thing, plain and simple. They pay for Medicare/Medicaid and this gets heavy users of that off their rolls. It has nothing to do with compassion in my opinion. I have mixed feelings on this. At the end my dad needed hospice. They use drugs to...

    A new Mega-Reservoir in California ?

    Democrats love environmental impact studies. They love to weaponize them against a lot of different projects. Yet, when they potentially stand in the way of some of their pet projects magically they seem to disappear or get hand waved away.

    Rochester basic universal income program deemed a success

    Legalization of marijuana has been a giant scam from the get go. The government got its paws on it and turned what should have been a money printing industry into a disaster. It's obvious that a feel-good bleeding heart leftist decided that businesses licenses should be first granted to those...

    SCOTUS affirms right to Gay Marriage

    I'm a bit old fashioned in the sense that I believe marriage is between one man and one woman. But ultimately that's between the couple and God (insert whatever higher power you want). I've officiated one Lesbian wedding and would do more homosexual weddings too. I like money more than I like...

    Upstate NY city elected full blown Communist. Guess the city.

    Trump says tariffs are so successful Americans will get $2,000 dividend checks

    The government learned a long time ago (like other governments before it) that you can raid the public treasury to buy yourself votes. It has been the downfall of every government in the past and I expect it to be the ultimate downfall of this one.

    Analysis: Mass Immigration Pushes U.S. Housing Market to ‘Breaking Point’

    Law of supply and demand. Anyone with a brain could have seen this coming. The solution? Well, according to the Mayor-Elect of NYC is to use taxpayer dollars to build more housing to complement the other free stuff he's giving away. That, I can tell you, will not end well.

    Here's Why Asian Americans Shifted Right

    Both of my S&W revolvers have the Hillary hole. Never used it and never had a problem with it. S&W probably should have had a bigger set of balls when they were pressured to include it but I don't see it as being overly restrictive. Glad to see that they discontinuing it though.
