"@puddytat, if you disagree with me please feel free to enlighten me. In all seriousness." I actually don't think we're far apart, except like I said homelessness is a problem of untreated mental illness. Lack of cheap housing is a problem of NIMBYism and regulations, primarily local. Homeowners vote, and they want cheap housing (depressing their own housing values) as much as they want gonorrhea. It's why New England NIMBYs (who are horrible) are all for green energy until wind turbines spoil their ocean view. I'm aware that most overstay their visas, which is a reason why to tackle it from the employer end. I think Skibum said make e-Verify a condition of doing business with the government, I'd say fine the shit out of any business employing illegals with half of it going to the informant. And if they keep doing it, prosecute them. This isn't a difficult problem if we don't want it to, it's that the left wants to show how pure and non-racist they are by flooding the country with illegals, and corporations (who are highly disproportionately Harris donors) want cheap labor. Harris' housing subsidy plan is an invitation to increase housing prices. If you want cheap housing, take away all the onerous permitting and regulations. That's local, not federal. I agree that Congress is fucked, but that's a larger problem of OUR polarization. MTG, Gaetz, AOC, Tlaib, Omar are a reflection of their constituents. We vote them in because we want to stick it to the other side. We want them to never give an inch. Another problem is that Congress has given away a shitload of its power, or at least looked the other way as it's been taken. They gave it to the executive to enact by fiat, or to SCOTUS to "find" rights that they couldn't pass. Barack Obama had 60 senators in Jan 2009, why didn't he pass a national abortion law then? He wasn't pro-life then, everyone knew Roe v Wade was a poorly-reasoned decision, shit, RBG said so. They need to nut up and take the power of the purse back. An alarming proposition I'm hearing is to get rid of the filibuster, or at least carve it out. We'll whipsaw between two diametrically opposed ideas every few years and nothing will get done. It's like paying one side to dig holes and the other side to fill them. Ditto for packing the SCOTUS. Progressives want 4 to give themselves the majority? (and that's the only reason they would choose exactly 4?) Don't complain when the GOP appoints 8 to restore their old ratio. It's a vicious cycle.

"Seems pretty clear that homelessness and lack of affordable housing are much bigger problems than any associated with immigration." Homeless is a problem of untreated mental illness, usually schizophrenia or substance addiction. "So, perhaps hyping the border problem is more about giving the Presidency rule-by-decree powers like a fuhrer." LOL, whatever. Trump wasn't a Fuhrer in his first term. He didn't need a wall, just Remain in Mexico. Now if he just cracks down on employers of illegals, we won't need a wall. The border and illegal immigration are a real problem especially for strained social services like we're seeing in many cities. "who blocked Congressional action to legally reduce illegal border crossing and admission of asylum seekers." LOL, you mean the bill that would have codified and legitimized high levels of illegal immigration? It was a political stunt for a bill they knew wouldn't pass, and you're just playing along. The acceptable level of illegal immigration is zero.

Vivide (possibly not anymore), Blaze in Atlanta.

Think I've banged one chick who weighs more than me. Fun in the dark but that cottage cheese ass killed it if I ever saw it in the light. What's that they say about fat chick's being like mopeds, fun to ride but you wouldn't want your friends to see you on one?

Mind translating that from disingenuous liberal propaganda and conspiracy theories to English?

From RuPaul's drag race? Is that really a man?

"BREAKING: Acting ICE Director Patrick Lechleitner says 13,000 known illegal immigrants who were convicted of homicide and 15,000 convicted of sexual assault have been released into the country." https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-biden-harris-admin-releases-13000-convicted-murderers-across-border-into-us But this is OK because The Lion King or something. Lulz.

It's the blatant lie. Plan to fix it? They broke it in the first place, then had the gall to say Trump was the bad guy for not codifying illegal immigration at unacceptable levels. I hope the American people are smart enough to see through this lie.

^^ Yeah, because a few Broadway shows in one small area are great for the people in AOC's district. Lulz

^ Yeah. It's 0.00000000001% of what happened until it happens to you. Now a lot of them are not even reporting crime stats to the feds anymore. People are fleeing the Bay Area hand over fist, for one. Of course that's "white flight" and it's "racist," but I don't fault anyone who prioritizes their physical health and property over looking good to a bunch of people who get offended as a hobby. Harris also wants to give $25,000 of money we don't have to throw around, to homebuyers whom sellers know have an extra $25,000 to spend. Anyone who's spent five minutes in an economics classroom knows Harris' economic plans are pure dogshit. The question is whether or not they care; they quickly go to some nonsense appeal to emotion. Good feelings won't stop you from getting carjacked!

"Finding isolated negative stories and photos from Democrat-governed cities" Yeah, we all know that Chicago, Minneapolis, Detroit, New York, Baltimore, and Oakland are paradise, especially for black people. Perhaps you should be asking yourself why stories about urban blight in Democrat-run cities are so easy to find?

I'd smash those AI-generated bytes into bits.

^ It's always Trump’s fault. Not like these centers of urban blight keep electing the same party and expecting things to get better. Chicago, Baltimore, Oakland, Detroit, New York City...Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

She, like a lot of congressfuckers, is too busy trying to build a national profile while her district goes to shit. Some hard left Dem friends are talking about running her for president. I'd take two terms of Kamala Harris over one month of her. Just imagine her playing the victim like she loves to do around Xi or Putin.

^ Lincoln project are a bunch of pedophiles. Fuck them. A rally got out of control.

Was that Maya, the stacked Asian there? She's a knockout and gives some of the best non-extras dances I've ever had. Too bad the place is a rip now.

"We'll have a lot of fun" = "you'll have a lot of fun with someone else." I don't know exactly what I'm getting and what I'm paying, I won't go back. Might take away the thrill of getting more than I expected, but I'd rather that than the frustration of getting ripped off.

^ I'd hit that. Arms a little chubby but I love that lower half of her.

6.5. I think in my mid 40s I get more female attention (and certainly have better style and "game") than I did in my 20s. In better shape now, too.

Obesity rates in this country have been jumping for quite some time, in both men and women. But only women have been infected with this "body positivity" nonsense--it's OK to call a morbidly obese male a fatass, but if you say Lizzo is a cow, you're some kind of -ist and -phobic. Some women should be LESS confident in their bodies. You know what doesn't care if you're "body positive"? Type 2 diabetes. Obstructive sleep apnea. Osteoarthritis. Fatty liver. Polycystic ovarian syndrome. A lot of cancers.

Cut your losses, get out. If someone tries to rush me to the back, that's a red flag. Best was when I was getting a few tableside dances at Vivide--she was utterly fucking smoking hot but dances were mid--and out of nowhere she comes with "wanna fuck?" Bad vibes.

^ I don't disagree (and you're definitely one of the most reasonable liberals here), but it's just not on people's radar. The economy is #1, immigration is up there, and the most Dem-friendly issue is abortion (people don't like having rights taken away, whether it's abortion or guns). Jan 6 is a partisan Democrat concern.

@ilbbaicnl - wow, you're on a straw man torching spree. Trump rebuffed Epstein; he was a Clinton darling. There's no "blood out" for Epstein save for some cockamamie conspiracy theories. Calling MAGA/Tea Party "white supremacist" is also an unsubstantiated slur. Trump did better among blacks in 2020 than he did in 2016. If he was such a white supremacist and spent 4 years enacting white supremacist policies, why did this happen? The "racist" slur is like an old antibiotic; it's been overused to the point that it has no effect. Not to mention I just showed it's bullshit. Demographic changes are what the left brags about, going back to The Emerging Democratic Majority and Obama's Coalition of the Ascendant. Me, I'm part of the "browning of America" with half a family of Latin immigrants who came here legally and treasure American values. Hardly "threatened" by it. My family--even on my "white" side--faced their share of racism and exclusion. But they saw something special in American values. It's the Democrats who are dividing America, along race, gender, and sexual orientation. Race relations were BETTER BEFORE BLM and the way some people saw opportunity in division. Give me the party that doesn't shit on the notion of a unified America. "There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs." - Booker T. Washington

Why are you using his slave name, you racist?

^ Yes we will. But this will be a tiny, tiny part of the equation.
