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.

Even more maddening, besides the utter waste of taxpayer money, some of our NGO largess is actually used against us when the USAID recipient uses it to fund other downstream charities and activist groups who operate the overland railroad shuttling immigrants North. Have you ever wondered why so many of them show up clean, well fed, well dressed, white sneakers looking brand new. Not what you would expect if the would be immigrant just walked 1,000 miles thru jingles and deserts. I am sure they all miss the good old days when Biden would fly them in to the city of their choice, no vetting required.

Oh, he flew them in, also.
Basically this is the funding mechanism that allowed the left to get their policies in place and keep them there no matter what the voters said: Elect the most ardent border hawk ever, it doesn't matter - the Deep State will route buckets of cash out to whatever group to subvert the President's policies.

All that stops right now. I can't describe how much I'm enjoying seeing all these people scream on television because they KNOW the game is up.

The democrats aren't quite finished. If we've learned anything from horror movies it's that you have to keep after the serial killer until you've thrown it down an active volcano or it'll come back (and yes libs, I'm saying your party is the political equivalent of Michael Myers).
