The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

Based on the posts visible here, very few of the right-leaning folks seem to realize it. Maybe one or two. The rest seem to think Biden (or any POTUS) can fix it with the wave of a pen. That's simply not reality. Congress has to do it.

--------------------

I understand that legislation is needed. However, that is no excuse for ignoring the issue or suing states for using state resources to interdict illegal crossing.

Why were many in early on caravans wearing t-shirts thanking Biden? Why isn't Biden jawboning for legislation with equal enthusiasm as he does for green energy. Biden actually prefers to mask the problem by trotting out Mayorkas to lie to our faces about how the border is secure.

A lot changed for the worse when Biden took over and it was not all or even mostly due to the expiration Title 42. The would be illegals correctly deduced they could get a better deal under Biden that Trump. Why is that?
