Many people have been hit and killed by Republican drivers. Statistically, far more than have been killed by “Biden immigrants”. Guess we should smear all Republicans as criminals and deport them, by your logic.

If those immigrants hadn't been let in and if a Dem state hadn't let them drive trucks when it's been proven they should not be based on language gaps etc., the people they killed (and will continue to kill) would be alive. Your stupid comparison is just that .... stupid

You know what? I've come to realize that Democrats are just as unbearable and holier-than-thou, if not more so, than Republicans. Especially progressives, a group of which I thankfully no longer am part. I'll take a sane conversation with a Republican over a scolding lecture by someone on the left.

You're a pick-me girl, we get it.

Private donations are not a legitimate funding source for federal buildings/activities. Lawsuits we’ll tell if it is considered a legal source. Because as can be seen by current donations - the money coming in is thinly veiled bribes. Don’t want a tariff on your company….donate to the ballroom.

But I would expect private donations will be determined to unlawful for federal activities.

Federal spending is determined by Congress - you know that constitutional thing - power of the purse. And just because current speaker of the house and senate majority leader are not exercising congressional oversight - doesn’t mean that will always be the case.

Not only do these private donations constitute bribes, they are also tax-deductible. Which means they are bribes that the taxpayers are subsidizing. Were there no ballroom, these donors would instead be giving the money to legitimate charities.

The plane from Qatar is a bribe too. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see the US give Qatar preferential treatment because of it. Trump isn't the only president to engage in quid pro quo with other countries, but Trump is unique in that the arrangements benefit him personally instead of the nation. Trump bragged about how the plane was "free" but we're going to spend hundreds of millions fixing it up - just in time for him to leave office and take the plane with him. We also saw this with the withholding of funds to Ukraine that led to his first impeachment - finding "dirt" on Joe Biden certainly doesn't benefit the nation.

So you're ok with the killings in Minneapolis, the measles outbreaks, and building a $300M ballroom while the national debt is spiraling out of control and Americans are struggling to pay for groceries and health insurance?

There is a reason that interfering with a federal operation is a felony; it’s a dangerous practice. FAFO in play.

Measle outbreaks are happening generally around large illegal immigrant populations. Which is why the NIH recommends doing outreach in a “culturally sensitive manner “

The ballroom is being financed through private donors.

Biden allowed millions of people to flood the border, I’m more horrified by that, than what is happening now.

NP but I don’t believe you hold a master’s in STEM. If you did the illegal immigrants would not threaten you. For me, they might be my house cleaners and landscapers. (Probably, I employ the companies but don’t interrogate the employees). Are they somehow your competitors?

I gotta say, of all of the people I know, who have HHIs in upper 6 and lower 7 digits, none are threatened by illegal immigants.

DP, but you appear to be under the impression that people against illegal immigration feel “threatened” by immigrants.
That might be the narrative you’ve been fed, but it isn’t reality. There are valid reasons to oppose illegal and/or mass immigration that don’t involve feeling personally threatened.
And your argument that UMC people shouldn’t care because illegal immigrants are providing housekeeping and landscaping service? Wow.
You know, maybe you’re right. I have enough money and skills that I don’t have to compete with those people for jobs, housing, healthcare, or education, so why should I personally care?

Don’t worry. We understand that some of you are against illegal immigration because Fox News told you to be.

Thanks for admitting that you vote for fascist grifting sex trafficking rapist pigs because of your narcissism.

Those mean dems hurt your fee fees, so you’re happy to burn it all down.

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night and wonder at what point you became such a pathetic tool?

Exactly! No women, no minorities, amirite! Who the heck do these liberals think they are, anyway?

After watching the left's behavior after Charlie Kirk was assassinated and their continued attacks on Erika Kirk, it was clear to me that I could never vote Democrat.

NP. What makes you say this? If both sides have unbearable, obnxious, know it all loudmouths who are unreasonably passionate about their positions, why have you decided that the Republicans are now better. Genuinely curious as a Dem who has a lot of issues with the party, but can't reconcile the inhumanity and bad policies of the Republicans.

I do think he’s a dirty old man who likely abused women and kids. I also think he’s going a little crazy with attacking other countries, naming things after himself, and bypassing Congress when he can. I hope there are better candidates on both sides next time. I actually voted 3rd party in the last election, but do lean conservative and would like to see a proper Republican candidate next time. Of course, I have little hope of seeing a good, moral candidate.

You don't even have to say kinder, you can just say more lawful.

You're actually the problem with America, friend. The fact that the Republicans are still a viable political party after all this and that you would vote for them again is so, so pathetic.
