The USA Political Thread

Pretty soon California will fuck themselves from the freedom to move freely within their state. Why the people never fight their State government officials there is beyond me, Since the 1970's Californians have either voted in or allowed their state to break their bank accounts with very foolish laws. They have migrated out of their state to Texas, Arizona and New Mexico, This in huge striking numbers. It appears if they are running away from the life's they actually made themselves. The big question is, did they learn anything from what has happened to them, or will they completely fuck up other states.

California is a beautiful state, the people are friendly, but it has a large dark cloud over it.

Just like the Japanese and Koreans... they clean up all their trash!

Really way past the time to end the useless UN....

President Trump’s Citizenship Question Isn’t Controversial.

Obama Deleting It Should’ve Been. Obama was the first to not include a question on citizenship, naturalization, or nativity in almost 200 years.

The Trump administration is simply undoing Obama’s 8-year effort to distort the status quo.

Did you know: The FBI, under Robert Mueller, let child predator Jeffrey Epstein off with a weak plea deal Dozens of young girls accused him of assaulting them Maybe Mueller should have gone after Epstein as hard as he went after our President

Did you know: This is literally not true. The FBI doesn't prosecute people. It just investigates. Conversely, the guy who did actually give Epstein a sweetheart plea deal is currently a member of Trump's cabinet.

The fact that this guy just logs on to own himself publicly all the time would be a lot more fun if he ever paid any consequences for broadcasting his stupidity. Yet, he's got 1.1M followers despite clearly being an ignoramus, which is why this website is garbage.

This is one of my favorites. Since the end of NN, Spectrum has begun offering mobile service. Cell companies are upgrading their infrastructure for 5G.

You can get a mobile plan from mint ( t-mobile ) for $15/month. Verizon is offering unlimited everything for $40 / month.

Spectrum / Comcast sells unlimited Internet for $25 /month to anyone who qualifies for an Obama phone.

Frontier lowered their price to $35/month for DSL.

Democrats claimed people would actually die because of NN. Local democrat run Gov passed laws that are meaningless but made headlines.

Internet access is becoming a commodity service and prices are starting to decrease as predicted.

Oh-yeah... Sprint is giving cell tower extenders away free to businesses. Have poor reception? Call sprint they'll send you a yellow box that is an actual cellular receiver that can extend 4G LTE service 100 yards.

Children are going to die!!! SMH.
