Here we go, House blocks Trump's National Emergency

It amazes me just how much people trust the system when their party is the one "in power". 😂

They've really got you guys suckered into believing that a politician is actually fighting for anything but their own bank account. 😂

You'd think people would learn by now that the two sides have ALWAYS been used to back us into our ideological corners. THIS time is different though, THIS time they're fighting for ME! But only if they belong to one of the two camps that have always been used to divide us. And this division that has been happening constantly for 3+ years, it's totally different than all those other times before where they used partisanship to divide us! 😂

The hilarity is almost too much. People are so gullible! 😂

It's entertaining to watch from the sidelines. It's like the KKK and Black Panthers fighting over who is more prejudiced. Both are prejudiced! 😂

Missing the forest for the trees, as always.

You should start a thread on this.
You won't.

As to the actual topic, as this is the legal remedy the bs lawsuits should be thrown out.
And we get a record of who is against border security.

What's the point? I'll just be mocked and shouted down by the usuals. That and it'll fizzle out within an hour because it doesn't fit the narrative being pushed on here and in the media 24/7. 😂

Exactly
2 posts and nothing about the topic.
Not surprising.

LOUD NOISES

a reply to: shooterbrody

My post is definitely about the OP. Just another round in the endless back and forth those in power have you guys stuck in. 😂

When will you wise up to the manipulation? How many of the big players have been punished or thrown in jail?

*crickets*

AOC said something and Trump had two scoops of ice cream though! That's what's important, right? 😂

I wonder what the media will distract you from next? Maybe Trump farts and you guys get all outraged about them talking about it? Wouldn't surprise me at this point. Divide and distract. You guys are clueless. 😂

a reply to: 3NL1GHT3N3D1

No it's not
Its It's another you are smarter than everyone else post.
Only you can see through the deception.
Pffft
One trick pony.

Go make your own thread about it.

a reply to: shooterbrody

Again, what's the point? I'll just be mocked and shouted down by the usuals. There's no actual discussion to be found on here anymore, just bickering, name calling and circle jerking. 😂

Seriously though, you guys are always the ones claiming that I'm somehow smarter than you. There's nothing "smart" about stepping back from the media-supplied narrative and looking at it as a whole. I'm not the only person that sees through the charade. Not sure why you think I am. 😂

But again, the media will jingle those keys in your face next week and you'll hone in on it like a heat seeking missile. The media knows exactly how to distract you, as do the politicians who are paid to do what they do and say what they say.

Like I said, clueless to the bigger picture. 😂

More self service.
Yawn
Your repetition is getting tedious .
I don't think your smarter you do.
You add nothing.
You have become the definition of thread drift.

It would take a basic understanding of civics to actually participate.

a reply to: shooterbrody

If I was self-serving I would fall in line with the usual crowd around here in search of self-gratification for my opinion. But I don't, I come here to be mocked and ridiculed for having an opinion that goes against the ATS hivemind. Look at the front page right now and any other day, it is the definition of an echo chamber and circle jerk. I don't take part in it, obviously (other than to observe and point it out). 😂

a reply to: 3NL1GHT3N3D1

Yeah just that same self service....

For someone pontificating about accepting that others may have differing opinions you seem awfully single minded.
And still no discussion of the op.
You must be special.

Don't you need a "National Emergency" to declare one? unless you are just using political power for political ego and political gain with your base

a reply to: XAnarchistX

Yep
And the potus gets to make that decision,
Congress doesn't agree and is doing their part,
Potus can then veto
Congress can override if they have the votes

More importantly Congress can change the emergency act to suit their will

Otherwise don't cry when outmaneuvered

a reply to: shooterbrody

I've already commented on the OP. It's just another case of politicians using divisive rhetoric to push their donors' agenda of dividing us down party lines, just like politicians have always done. They don't believe a single thing they say or do, they just follow their marching orders to secure funding of their next house or sports car.

Like I asked before, after all this bickering and back and forth over the past 3+ years what big players have been punished or thrown in jail? I'll wait. 😂

a reply to: 3NL1GHT3N3D1

No
Just your tired bloviating.

Perhaps your comprehension is compromised?
Or you skipped civics?

Executive vs Legislative

Or you could start your own thread instead of hijacking this one via drift?

a reply to: shooterbrody

You're the one who turned the discussion toward me. Blame yourself. 😂

But seriously, these two idiots in the OP will do anything for money including selling their actual opinions and morals down ther river. I have no love for them and see through their rhetoric. I'm sorry that you take them more seriously than I do. 😂

Now again, what major players have been punished and/or thrown in jail over the past 3+ years? Trump is still in office, Obama is still making his rounds wherever he is and so is Hillary. Where is this swamp that's being drained? Because I see a swamp that's even fuller than it was before. 😂

Please humor me an answer, who has gone to jail? Anyone?

No offense, but I think I'll pass. I've come to realize that any thread that doesn't toe the party line will be ignored and/or devolve into a pissing contest.

a reply to: 3NL1GHT3N3D1

Can you just stop the broken record again? It was nice to have one less ignorant poster on these forums for the month or so break you took.

You look at politics superficially, and have absolutely ZERO input to add to political discussions other than "TPTB control you and you are all sheep and I am not", that #zz gets old really fast, as you have noticed by the responses you receive on this forum.

When you finally grow up, you might be able to look past the drama you claim to be no part of, and actually look at the laws and policies that are written instead of having some feelsies about a subject because of what you heard. Maybe then you will take the time to do your own research and be properly informed rather than relying on an opinion, or in your case opposing an opinion based on personal bias without direct knowledge of the subject.

Your posts and rebuttals on this forum are what we call ignorant. They are not well thought out, they are not informative, and they tend to repeat a narrative that you yourself cannot substantiate. When you are faced in such situations, you turn to trolling, or go the silent route, because it doesn't fit your narrative. Guess what, the real world doesn't revolve around you, and normal life hasn't changed much.

But please do carry on your narrative of being 'woke', the rest of us here will continue to deny ignorance...

There's a part of me that hopes this goes to the senate and passes and forces Trump to stop.

So America can see that our elected leaders do not want border security.

First, Mitch McConnell is scheduling a vote on the GREEN NEW DEAL. The costs came in last night from the former CBO chairman. Every man/woman/child U.S. citizen will have to pay $80,000 additional taxes per year, for the next 10 years.

McConnell wants all Senators on record as being FOR, or AGAINST, turning America into a Shi'thole nation.
