Regarding DOGE and cost cuts....deploying 4000 NG and 700 Marines..and now Texas deploy its NG must be pretty expensive..

On top of that, Trump ordered a huge military parade, 250th year jubilee of the US Army..on his own birthday.. Seems cost does not matter when Trump has the opportunity to shine..?

What do you think is more expensive... deploying troops? or allowing the 2nd largest city in the US burn, allowing thousands of businesses to be looted, and hundreds of vehicles to be destroyed? Which do you think will be more impactful on both a national and a local economy?

Surely you arent nearly as stupid as you come across. Basic math is taught in school in your country isn't it? perhaps its a language barrier?


regarding the military parade.. you might want to stop relying on propaganda for your "news"... that lie has been getting spread for months and has been debunked more times than Ru Paul has won a drag race..

The US Armys 250th birthday is in fact the same day as Trumps birthday.. Im pretty sure neither he nor his parents planned it that way.. it just happens to be true..

The 250th birthday of the US Army happens to be a pretty big deal.. celebrations of things like this are common all over the western world...

Considering the US Army currently has 954,875 members (including the reserve component and national guard).. do you really think a parade involving 6500 soldiers is big or excessive?

And, considering the US Army has held similar celebrations on all of its significant birthdays (200th, 150th, etc).. is it Trumps fault that they had a parade in 1975 on his 29th birthday too?

In 1991 the parade to celebrate the end of the Gulf War involved more than 8000 service members.. that was a war that lasted a few months and less than 150 service members died as a result of hostile actions...

The 250th Birthday of the US Army celebration is not only smaller and less expensive.. its also been getting planned for more than 2 years (well before Trump took office).. the budget for it was approved in 2023 by the prior administration...

Youre stretching... and essentially looking like a baffoon... you and Munnik should get together and have a study session.. perhaps try to actually learn something or know what you're talking about prior to posting.. you'd get a good bit more respect if you put something up meaningful rather than unsubstantiated drivel..

looks like a trade off we get rare earth they get spies implanted, not a good deal. What was Ukraine's rare earth about ?

In this world humans are either sheep, wolves, or sheepdogs.

Sheep are soft and almost never hurt others.

Wolves are few but they prey on the peaceful sheep. Sometimes sheep being soft of heart and often mind, follow wolves because as sheep, they are followers, not leaders.

Then there are many of us who were born and/or raised to protect others, we are sheepdogs.
"Then there are sheepdogs," he went on, "and I'm a sheepdog. I live to protect the
flock and confront the wolf."
Sheepdogs tend to pursue public service professions such as first responders, medical, and military.

The attached .pdf file by LtCol Dave Grossman, US Army, retired, explains this for those who fail to comprehend the subject.

The big question for this forum is, "Which are you? A sheep, a wolf, or a sheepdog?"

Matt 10:16

"Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves".

You are lucky to have troops to deploy

I suspect that we in the UK are a knat’s testicle away from civil unrest

There are not many of us sheep dogs between the sheep and the ‘rude boys’

We have a government that should really be charged with treason as they are deliberately working against our national interests

Real trouble will come when these parasites are voted out and the next lot are prevented from effecting meaningful change

That is when democracy will be truly under pressure

It will be too late by then of course- with five to ten million fighting age males of alien culture that have no love for us, our history or way of life

 

[cwpayton]

I am quite sure he is in fact Norwegian and not swedish, neighboring countries but not quite the same.

And it does seem like pro-migration parties are losing power all over europe, and those that once were pro-migration are in most cases not that anymore. I guess it finally dawned on most of the politicians here that we have been taking in more people that we can integrate in a good way.

so if that is the case my apologies to you ,thanks for an intelligent reply, sorry for Norway.

 

[steve white]

So your take on this is that rich leftists have payed to stage an insurrection..?

You must be buried in delusional conspiracy theories..

Oh of course communists never stage insurrections--never have, in all their history....don't plan to destabilize any governments now! In fact, did not invade Ukraine--just went too far on a training mission or something. And the Muslims in your country are completely innocuous and would never establish sharia law and place you forcibly under it if given the opportunity. The brick pallets just appear by themselves, without a construction project going on in L.A.--nobody pays for them. Nobody has ever paid for everyone to wear the same protest shirts, especially across widely separated states. The same slogans, methods and timing of riots just bubble up without prior planning. Rioters have never been bussed in--nobody paid them or provided transportation. Neville Singham is just a conscientious Chinese resident--the money he provides only accidentally makes its way to hotspots. Did you not read a prior post about "Taxpayer funded riots" published by RedState?

Are you really from Norway--seems like you live in Las-Laa Land.

 

[Rocked and Loaded]

Well at least you are consistent… reliably and predictably defending the wrong side. I suppose money and support passing through at least two hands is a definition of plausible deniability for some.

In Tanks defense, I think he means legal plausible deniability. Evidence has to meet a certain threshold in order to prosecute someone.

That’s been used by organized crime for over a century to avoid prosecution for various illegal activities they fund.

You’d probably have to find evidence that Soros knew his money was going towards violence or intentionally directed it to that in order to prosecute him for it.

That's why some truly powerful, truly evil people should be assassinated? Would you have assassinated Hitler, given the opportunity? A lot of lives could be saved in the long run.

Maybe there should be bee-keepers...

My favorite video so far..... 3:30-6:20 demonstrates the effectiveness of horses and 40mm baton rounds

 

[cwpayton]

I’ve spent the last hour or so reading over the last several pages of this thread and it reminded me of a scene in the 1966 movie the professionals staring Lee Marvin and Burt Lancaster.

“ maybe there is only one revolution sense the beginning , the good guys against the bad guys the question is are we the good guys”

Most of you gentleman advocate for the use of force to put down the riots going on currently in L.A. ( And rightly so in my opinion ) the problem as I see it is that the actions taken to suppress the riots will only be used by the left to justify more riots.
There needs to be a fundamental change in society where we can get away from this tit for tat justification of actions and find some common ground to turn the temperature down or we may well end up fighting a civil war across the entire North American continent.

probably not that simple, probably goes back to Cain killing Able, or Moses killing the Egyptian, we have laws for the protection of society in general as well as individuals well being, What is going on in LA is more like insurrection , I think the proper solution would be to declare marshall law , arrest NANCY POLOSI's Nephew ( newsom} and proceed with setting up a legitimate government in the left coast by appointing a general as governor for 1 year , till the voting registry can be purged and a free and certified election can be held with no dead, or non citizens voting. and all illegals removed that dont have a green card. this is the USA not a globalist cabal . heck theres already 700 marines there send in 700 more and retake California as a state and prevent civil war setting up a provisional government. And denying the socialist the opportunity to have the advantage of a narrative for insurrection.
the so called riots are supposedly based on the rights of illegal infiltrators to come into a sovereign country and stay and do what ever they think is ok. try doing that in Mexico and see how it works out. This all is being orchestrated by powerful outside influences that installed obama and biden and planned on kamala ,but were interrupted by the people installing Trump to stop it. and that is what must be done.

 

[cwpayton]

No, Soros should be jailed and massively fined for funding it. There I said it--he is indirectly paying for the brick pallets.

I have seen a map of major cities across the us that are preplanned for riots on the 14 of June.If that happens maybe the time has come to correct the problem.

mdwest has posted the link [NO KINGS PROTEST]​

 

[BJH65]

As much as I disagree with Soros’ worldview, one can’t fine and jail him for political speech. Laws should apply equally to all.

Unless one can tie him directly to illegal actions nothing can be done. Plausible deniability applies to both sides. There are probably multiple organizations between him and the guy throwing bricks.

Perhaps true but he has clearly helped to destabilize our country with his funding of extreme anti American political candidates, making a farce of our criminal justice system and the rule of law in our country. I do not wish death upon anyone but I will not mourn his passing that can’t happen soon enough, of course his son is already carrying the torch of his twisted world view. His organization and his son’s actions bear scrutiny and any legal mechanism to stop him is worth exploring. Hard to believe he’s actually a U.S. resident.

 

[deewayne2003]

Remember the Minneapolis federal search warrant that turned into an immigration "protest".... Turns out the FBI was raiding locations linked to 900lbs(409kg) of meth that was discovered.

The only illegal immigrants that were arrested were the ones who turned up to assault federal agents.

I wonder who made how much over this planned soap opera

LOLOL!..... The national guard response is expected to cost $100mil by the time this is over, however California spends $8.4Bil annually on healthcare for illegal immigrants.

Also, as I mentioned in earlier posts about Molotov cocktails - their possession is a federal felony and throwing one at someone constitutes attempted murder.

FAFO = This previously deported illegal immigrant was caught on video throwing a Molotov cocktail at police and has been arrested and charged with attempted murder!

He was also arrested for driving drunk and grand larceny last year, but wasn't deported because of LA's sanctuary city laws.

 

[cwpayton]

now Pondoro said: what should we do with this protester, speak ! what should we bargain , he has rights huh. rights to murder ? rights to riot and burn down , what should we do.
