The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Your examples did not satisfy the criteria

LOL. The media lies to you through omission and through repeating obviously bogus "facts". I don't need to kick a field goal through your 6 inch wide goal posts.

How many media outlets immediately dismissed the Hunter Laptop story as RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION? Lots.

They nailed people for FARA violations. That's hardly the stuff of treason and collusion. If this is your criteria, then most of the Biden family should be in leg irons right now.

Is the US southern border secure? No. And I don't know anyone that says it is.

Really? You want to go with this, do you?

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told lawmakers Wednesday that the US-Mexico border is secure and repeated that it is “not open,” as the administration faces an ongoing influx of migrants.

Say, was this claim repeated by anyone?

nypost.com - White house doubles down on kamala harris claim that border is secure

The Biden administration doubled down Thursday on Veep Kamala Harris’ claim that the US border with Mexico is “secure” despite a surge of illegal crossings and overwhelmed migrant processing centers.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre backed up Harris — who was skewered for insisting earlier this week that “the border is secure” despite a broken immigration system that “needs to be fixed” — at a press briefing.


Heh. ean-Pierre said. “We agree that the border is secure, but there is still more work to be done.”

Still don't know anyone who says the border is secure?

Ask yourself. Why don't you know that? These are obvious, laughable lies from the administration and you don't know anything about them. Why?

Are you trying to tell me that there are migrant caravans rolling over the northern border? That'd be a neat trick considering the terrain: It's pretty much rugged wilderness from just east of Lynden, WA all the way into 1 gap in Oroville, then wilderness again way into Montana.

Kinda rugged country. I highly recommend a visit:
