I have talked to my counterparts in the US, they don't work with gang kids because it's too dangerous

It's the GUNS!!!
There a huge difference in racial demographics. And the US has a younger population too.

Anyhow, the Fed governor the president is attempting to illegally fire so he can end the Fed's independence and put his toadies in place has a 10am hearing tomorrow as she's sued him to stop this farce. I expect the court will side with her and then the administration will keep making up things to try and remove her much like they've done with Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Not sure why this is even a debate. A country that has easier access to guns has more gun related deaths. What a mindblowing concept.

I bet if you didn't require a license to drive, there would probably be more traffic accidents too. Crazy, I know.

It's okay guys....we don't have a gun violence problem because most of the "Violence" is just people killing themselves.

So the Biden crime family and their hand picked liberal Air Force generals had refused to let patriot Ashli Babbitt have military honours at her funeral due to her alleged insurrectionist activities that led to her murder at the hands of radical progressive Capitol police.

The Trump administration and the true American generals now at the Air Force gave her family five million dollars for the wrong done to them and have pivoted from the previous stance that giving her military honours would "bring discredit to the Air Force". See? Good things can happen for good people.

Looking forward to MLK Day being cancelled and replaced with Ashli Babbitt Remembrance Day.

It's literally a given, I'll say no later than 2027. More than likely they'll keep MLK day but downgrade it to a non-holiday and Ashli day will obviously be Jan 6 and it'll coincide with a full day of college football.

If you were to eliminate certain groups of people, the violence would end.

Stop.

Posting.

Tweets.

They should remove the function from the board entirely.

Yeah. And it didn't matter in 2016 and it doesn't matter now.

Trump is a pedophile. People knew this since the 90s and he still became president twice and is the leader of a cult.

Not sure this represents the point you might be trying to make in any positive light...

It matters to Trump and much of the MAGA world which is why he is doing everything he can think to distract from it including a lot of the stuff being discussed here. I'm not suggesting that these issues aren't worth discussing but alot of them only exist because he's an alleged pedo and on the Epstein list.

OK so the list comes out tomorrow. Trump's name is everywhere on it.

What changes? Serious question. What could possibly change?

Everyone already knows he's on it. Releasing the files won't make one iota of difference.

What changes is consent laws are eliminated and some MAGA cultists start raping children I would guess.

I don't know what the future holds but it seems to make Trump uncomfortable, which is a good thing.
