re: Mex pres Claudia Sheinbuam threatening to sue ELON...said she's controlled by the cartels

Posted by Tridentds on 2/24/26 at 5:51 pm to Ailsa

Well she probably is. Corruption combined with the insane amount of money cartels have at their disposal… As a country, Mexico is institutionally corrupted. They can’t fix this alone. They need US intelligence and unlimited firepower.

re: Who pays the tariffs?

Posted by Tridentds on 2/24/26 at 5:44 pm to Taxing Authority

Who pays for rampant and systematic fraud by Somalis in Minnesota? The benefits given to illegals? The hundreds of billions given overseas for condoms, drag shows, promotion of LGBTQ? The costly restrictions on emissions in the US while China continues to build coal fired plants with very little ftreatment of the pollution? Ohh… and don’t forget the interest accumulating adding to our national debt as we borrow more money to spend overseas..,

Yep, we taxpayers do.

Tariffs??? A drop in a fricking barrel.

re: Which finished Britain as a world power: WW2 or Suez Crisis?

WW2 hurt them bad. Joining the EU with the immigration that came with it is finishing them off.

re: Does MAGA remember Trump’s handling of COVID-19?

LOL.

Yep... Trump definitely stood in the way of a well coordinated and highly effective government response based entirely on science. Yes, the democrats were very cooperative and supportive.

:lol:

People won’t admit/realize this but Kamala had a similar plan to counter cartels.

Kamala couldn't find the border if she headed south on 59 out of Houston. She was never going to do shite. Good god.

re: Questions about coverage during the entire Games

Everything was available through USAHD during the overnight hours. Channel 242 at our house. We set DVR to record everything overnight from 11pm until 5 or 6am and most other stuff was on there during the day. Pretty certain all events and all heats were shown. Much of it condensed in 1 - 2 hours. Just about all medal ceremonies as well.

She is actually correct if it doesn’t say you can’t share. I agree that it is intuitive but that doesn’t matter.

I have driven/walked across the US/MX border into MX hundreds of times, more often than not with a car with Louisiana plates, and not once did I need to show a passport or have my car inspected to go into MX. That would be extremely easy to do if they wanted to.

Interesting. I have been hunting about 2 1/2 hours into Mexico since early 2000s and have crossed at Laredo, Eagle Pass, but mostly the Columbia International Bridge about 15 miles West of Laredo and I can tell you that just about every time we go in... 4-5 times a year... we get a red light 98% of the time. They almost always take a cursory look at your passport.

You didn't say how far you travel into Mexico but I can also tell you if you drive more than 15 minutes or so into the country from the border they are going to be looking for U.S. license plates without a car permit. You absolutely cannot get a car permit without your passport and without making copies of your passport.

re: What is it going to take for you personally to stop watching college football?

Posted by Tridentds on 2/14/26 at 10:09 am to Uga Alum

I already watch a lot less. Top be perfectly honest I often dvr any game I am interested in so I can speed through them in an hour or so. Used to plan the day around them.. Not anymore. Pretty selective about the games we go to at home and on the road.

The almighty chase to squeeze every last dollar out of something has totally changed the sport I loved the most. That's just me. The younger guys may love it. :cheers:
