Libs are only concerned about the debt ceiling when they aren’t in power.
And RINOs like Trump only care about it during campaign season.

Now tell me about Government receipts…
Congress will spend every dime of new revenue and rack up the additional $4Tr in debt. How naive are you?

SO you would rather have the endless government "shutdown" Kabuki every 6 months?
Exactly. We should make Congress even less accountable, that’ll surely focus voter attention on the issue.

Didn't hear a word when we printed the equivalent of 1/5th of the currency in the U.S. treasury over the last 4 years.
Justifying irresponsible spending because “the other guy” spend irresponsibly is silly. Not an argument of merit.

letting in +11 million people into our country illegally isn’t a smoke screen. get the frick out of here.


How old are you?


Look at this graph (US population was 1/3 of 2025 population)



A real Republican (Ike) did not beef up border labor costs or waste US taxpayers money on an overpriced wall. Instead he acted like a real POTUS and solved the problem with diplomacy and policy with nations south of the US border.

The large and growing agricultural industry in the United States created a demand for labor. From the 1920s onward, with the exception of the depression era, Mexicans served as the primary labor source for much of the agricultural industry in the United States, especially in the Southwest. Every year during the 1920s, some 62,000 workers entered the United States legally, and over 100,000 illegally. American agriculture, which was also transitioning to large-scale farms and agribusinesses, continued to recruit illegal Mexican laborers to fulfill its expanding labor requirements.

In correspondence with assistants to President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Harlon Carter, head of the Border Patrol, planned Operation Cloud Burst, which requested an executive order to mobilize the military to round up illegal entrants at the southwestern border and to raid migrant camps and businesses in the interior of the United States. In deference to the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, Eisenhower declined to authorize the use of federal troops, instead appointing Army General Joseph May Swing as the commissioner of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. Eisenhower gave Swing the power to resolve border control issues in order to stabilize labor negotiations with Mexico.

The number of wartime braceros peaked at 62,000 in 1944, but the number began to rise again in the late 1940s, and reached its peak in 1956, when the program gave temporary work permits to 445,000 Mexican workers.

The USA has jobs the citizens in the USA will not work, no matter the pay. Folks south of the border need jobs where they can make USA wages half the year then live comfortably in their own country on this wages the other 6 months.

Fear peddling is counter productive
Building walls is wasting taxpayer money
Hiring more patrols is costly
Using US Armed Forces on US soil is wrong on so many levels

To solve the problem in the most most practical and efficient way Congress needs to work with each other instead of blaming each other on the correct laws and policies (with computers would be much easier to track labor than it was in the 1950's).

POTUS needs to get off his golf cart and visit foreign leaders south of the US border to work the diplomacy angle. "I don't know" is words that should never come out o\f ANY POTUS mouth.

SCOTUS needs to rule accordingly to make sure the Executive and Legislative branches get it right to diffuse the issue and save the actual US citizens who vote and pay taxes the money instead of pissing it in the winds.

That is how the US government actually works for the citizens who elect them instead of against them.

Not caring about our culture will only lead to disastrous results. It's how the left dominates the right. It's how our children are told trannies should be revered. It's how the media convinces half the country that Trump is an agent of Putin.

It's short-sighted to think that shows don't influence millions of people simply because you don't watch them.

Amazingly, I totally ignored this “culture”, raised all three of my children in Church and added three hardcore conservative republicans to our ranks.

If parents will actually parent, culture has zero effect on their children.

Stop blaming idiots like Colbert

Wait, because you vote for a candidate, you can’t disagree or criticize them?

You people are idiots and responsible for the brand identity crisis we have in this country.

Lol you say this but probably have a closeted kid.


Do they not go on the internet or watch anything? Do you homeschool them?

Because even watching an educational video at school is full of propaganda.


Your kids can't watch any programing and get away from climate change.

Neil Cavuto is gone.

In October 2021, Cavuto tested positive for CV19. He had been vaccinated. He said, "Had I not been vaccinated, and with all my medical issues, this would be a far more dire situation. It's not, because I did and I'm surviving this because I did."

OK fine.

But then he GOT CV19 AGAIN!
He got VERY sick.
He was hospitalized with it.
After recovering, he once again praised the efficacy of vaccines and advocated their use.

Sorry, but what a cuck!

Keep trying, Sparky.

All three married with children of their own. All three employed. All three attend Church.

Quit making excuses for not doing a better job of parenting your children. You sound like a leftist loon, blaming others for your problems. Which I know you’re not

Really?

Both my Grandfather and Grandpa were alcoholics. Believe me when I tell you the tendency was to become extremely violent. So much so that after one beating, men in the small town they lived in got together and threatened to kill my Grandfather after he’d beaten his wife within an inch of her life.

Can’t really comment on meth heads though.
