    How far into the rabbit hole are we?  Have we discussed how the US is going to have to pay Brazil to stop cutting down the Amazon yet?  Thats right fellas.  Agriculture contributes to larges quantities of greenhouse gasses.  Always found this interesting.  If we replaced cattle with bison it would benefit the environment due to hooves.  Bison aerate the soil helping with seed dispersal 

    Are bison hooves that different from cattle?

    P.S. You can pronounce it "Zach Braunagel" all you want, but you must spell it "Zac Braunagel." I'm serious about this. 

    How is his name spelled on his birth certificate?

  3. I’m more convinced the H1b visa is a scam.  Most of the H1b jobs don’t require a college degree, which is why half of our STEM graduates won’t take those jobs, and the companies that hire them have a bad habit of laying off American workers to fill those jobs with foreign workers who don’t have the right to negotiate their wages or change employers.

  4. Millions of Christians Are Under Islamist Assault, so Pope Francis Targets the Jews

    Perhaps he believes that pointing a finger at the Jews will divert Muslim rage from the Vatican.

    The Jews are not committing genocide against Muslims in Gaza, whose population grew almost 3% last year. Muslims, however, are committing mass murder via jihad against Christians in Africa. Yet the Pope cowers from defending his own flock.

    • The number of Christians intentionally murdered, let alone tortured, raped, kidnapped and forcibly converted to Islam far exceeds the number of Gazans killed unintentionally as Israel directs its fire at terrorists who hide behind civilians. Indeed, Israel is defending its population from the very same jihadist assaults faced by African Christians.

    • Ahsan Raja Masih, a young Pakistani Christian, has been sentenced to hang for his faith over false "blasphemy" charges. The Catholic Bishops of Pakistan have recently joined the Christian community's outcry against the death sentence. Where is the Pope?

    • By turning reality on its head, the Pope's shameful defamation of the Jews complements his passivity in the face of Islamic jihad against Christians. Perhaps he believes that pointing a finger at the Jews will divert Muslim rage from the Vatican. Surely, it distracts the world from his own cowardice and failure to protect Christians.

    I’m sure that these two will meet again at some point later in the year. So I think it will just add to the intrigue 

    Not likely before NCAA finals, where Hamiti will be in the mix. 

  6. It’s not a bad idea.  It’s not a waste of money.  It would be a strategic positive for us to have greater influence on Greenland, and the Panama Canal.  The statements you’re hearing are negotiations.  The Art of the Deal.  In both cases China is trying to insert itself into control which could jeopardize international shipping for the western hemisphere.  Where the Monroe Doctrine should be in effect.

    Would it have been wrong to put him in a choke hold before he set her on fire? 

    No.  It would have saved a life.

    You going to ignore there was a cop on scene watching her burn to death instead of trying to help? Looked like he couldn’t care less.

    The flaw with Hochul’s subway safety plan is she’s paying worthless cops billions in overtime to play games on their phone and arrest a fare jumper every couple hours.

    The problem boils down to Soros funded prosecutors and judges.  Taking criminals to Alvin’s jail is a waste of time, he is more into prosecuting political foes and common sense civic minded folks, like the one who might have put the woman-burner in a chokehold.

    Statutory rape. 

    Now, we know why Trump was so quick to nominate him for AG. Gaetz reminds him of a very dear friend he lost only a few years ago…..

    Yeah, except the DoJ did an exhaustive investigation and declined to charge him.  I will say it’s a shame there’s no laptop left unclaimed, ‘cause you, @Le duke, and this ethics committee have all the earmarks of a Russian misinformation operation.

    Does Trump do no background checking before nominating?

    Or is Trump so bad at background checks that this was missed?

    Or is Trump OK with this background?

    https://ethics.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Committee-Report.pdf

    Based on the above, the Committee determined there is substantial evidence that Representative Gaetz violated House Rules and other standards of conduct prohibiting prostitution, statutory rape, illicit drug use, impermissible gifts, special favors or privileges, and obstruction of Congress.
