Are you ready? I think this is gonna be a rough couple years.

The "guy" has been in office for 18 days, but these outrageous food prices are all his fault?

To me, it is more about TDS than food costs.

I agree. All I hear is the whining sound of the sugar-teat being yanked from liberal lips.

 

[poltiregist]

And those that employ them.

At last here is something that I can agree with " Slade " on . Seeing as how's the quoted words seem meaningless without fuller context will try to fill , Slade is saying that those that hire and work illegal aliens should be deported along with their slave labor back to a country from which the slave labor came .

 

[Magus]

BUT, sending US citizens to foreign prisons is clearly unconstitutional.

I thought we owned Gitmo.

 

[Supervisor42]

I thought we owned Gitmo.

We do.
...And it works damgood too!
There are currently 15 residents there. Most are 9/11 terrorists, (what year was that? )

Today, 15 detainees remain at Guantanamo Bay: 3 are eligible for transfer; 3 are eligible for a Periodic Review Board; 7 are involved in the military commissions process; and 2 detainees have been convicted and sentenced by military commissions.

Trump wants to send them to El Salvador.
It has been reported on almost every news outlet, from the conservative NY Post, to AP News, every where.

One more time (this is the 5th or 6th time now)
NOT GIMO.
EL SALVADOR!
EL SALVADOR!

 

[montanabill]

So you are ok with food stamps for Americans?
Food stamps 112.8 billion

that's how wall mart stays in business and their employees get to eat as well. Have you got a solution or do you just want to one line argue?

 

[Mountain trapper]

As long as their gone I don't care where they go.

currently it is a misdemeanor just to walk across the border illegally, it is a felony to aid and abet, transport or harbor said people... Fine and jail a few labor contractors or business owners... There are systems to come into this country and work but it does take some paperwork.. How about a picture ID card....COSTCO box store has them and it flashes my photo up on a screen when I hold it in front of the scanner as I walk in.. The card also has my photo on it......they make them while you wait.
Might be the mark of the beast but it sure would track some of the folks who want to work here and work their way towards citizenship.

 

[Haertig]

USaid bought 2.1 billion in American grain.

Who'd they buy it from? Iran?

 

[montanabill]

in 2022 montana produced 1.3 billion dollars worth of wheat and 80% of it sold to asia and the middle east.

 

[Neb]

We do.

Technically we lease it as a refueling (coaling) station in a treaty going back ro 1903 or so. Weird lease says it stays in effect until both parties dissolve it.

My state produced approximately 90 million bushels of wheat, or 613 million dollars. Much of it also went to Asia. Production was down some, but crops are always up and down.

Newly sworn in Attorney General " Pam Bondi " has now stopped " all " federal funding to Sancturary cities . I don't know whether we have any members living in a Sancturary city , but if we do expect " sh--ty things to happen in your area . -- Fun times indeed for those that prepared which of course includes positioning your family in a prepper friendly area .

Right. I missed something. you'd think after the 80's we'd own them too, but naaaaaa...

Mostly Montana.

I think you'ill find it was bought by USaid.

Some lower-level reddit-worthy analysis going on by the left. Things happening quite fast right now that has them looking for suitable justification for their bad policies.

News: “USAID caught giving a lot of money to LGBTQ initiatives in far away countries…” the left, “bought they help some too” or even better, “it’s such a small budget…” or my favorite new one, “it helps Americans by giving them money, but it’s nothing like socialism, it’s just good governance to help those businesses that can’t compete in the open market”.

News: “USAID is being audited by third party source who how’s that funds were never turned down or rejected.” The left, “OMG my government issued numbers can’t be found by government officials and sold on the black market to non-government entities.” Those of us who’ve worked for the federal government, “that has happened so many times we’ve lost count and accept our SSNs, MIDs are all public domain. Hell, even ended up on a terrorist groups hit list.” The left, “it’s different this time!”

News: “Trump threatens tarries on countries who exports over 80% of their total exports to America and who combined only import less than %5 of America’s exports”. The left: “this will collapse the US economy for no reason, better get ready for another recession or even a depression.” (Anybody see that the EU just lowered import tariffs on American vehicles from10% to 2.5%)

News: Trump is deporting criminal illegal aliens at a rapid pace and will use Gitmo to house some of the worse cases.” The left: went from, “it would be impossible to deport such a high number” to, “I’m worried that many families will be separated” then onto, “many innocent people will be detained along with the criminals” and my second personal favorite “those immigrants only do the jobs Americans won’t do” (of course this ignores the latest jobs report shows approximately 1 million legal immigrants and illegal aliens got new jobs last month compared to only 8,000 natural citizens”.

And my personal favorite left response to USAID and deportation news, “Jesus/Christians shouldn’t be outraged at the lack of compassion” sure, now they’re the experts on Christianity.

The best part of this, I guess climate change is cured, I haven’t seen much of a response after hearing it was going to kill us all for the last few years…

Trespassing is a felony in Texas. Our governor did that because of illegals!

 

[Doreena]

Everything will work out just fine. Nobody's going to starve. I'm about as self sufficient as I chose to be. We could grow a lot more of our food, but don't want to.

I sure hope you are right.

Evidence of climate change is all around us. Hottest years ever recorded. Floods in North Carolina. Fires in California, all off the norm.

that's stupid! So you want American farmers to grow grain and then basically give it away to terrorist countries. Wow

If they have too much grain to sell IN the US, or paying countries ( like China or Europe) then maybe they need to grow something else!!
If I don't sell enough Kohlrabi or something at the farmers market because I planted a huge field of them ( and not too many people eat them or know what it even is) , I am going to plant MORE broccolie the next time because I sell all of them

 

[sonya123]

So you are ok with food stamps for Americans?
Food stamps 112.8 billion

no I am not ok with that. There should maybe be food stores for poor people, but they should only have basics, rice, beans, cabbage, carrots, stuff to keep them from starving, not stuff to get 100 lbs overweight on and have no incentive to ever work

 

[sonya123]

If grain and other crops were not sold overseas it would create a glut of product on the market, and drive many farmers right out of business.

If farmers cannot sell what they produce, maybe they need to stop growing monoculture and diversify. It would be better for the soil too. I am against factory farming to begin with. It is what destroyed local family farms all over the place. Just look at the egg situation now. All those chickens destroyed over bird flu when they stuff a million of them in some factory farm chicken house. GMO corn sprayed with roundup . Beef herds shrinking because they are too expensive to raise ( maybe they need to grow more hay and feed some of that extra grain to the cows)
USDA does not do a good job in many ways , another .gov that needs to be fixed

[sonya123]

And you hate poor people.

hahahaha!! We are poor enough to qualify for Medicaid, and we could get food stamps ( but of course don't , we would suck as farmers if we did)
So I hate us...hmmm....will have to tell husband "hey I hate you because you are poor"

You know WHY we are poor? Because I got sick and tired of working a stressful job only to see more income than we now make in 3 years going down the tubes in taxes to pay for the ghetto trash, third world countries that can't fix their own issues and just plain lazy people that don't want to work. It made me so mad that I decided I will not pay taxes anymore. The only way to do that is to have income below the limit of where you have to pay. If you can't beat them , join them. Only problem LOL we are really poor now....
I don;t care it was worth it, been doing what I want for almost 10 years now

You know what happens when you are poor? You get free healthcare, you get almost free college education, you get free food, surprised they don't give you a free vehicle

oh and we really ARE legit farmers, filing schedule F every year , just sent off our tax stuff to the accountant
Everything we do is 100% legal

 

[sonya123]

So you now hate farmers.

are you even a real person, or an AI put here by some liberal organization?

 

[Amish Heart]

Agree with you 100 percent, Sonya. But of course you have an opinion about it since you raise animals for meat and to sell, and raise produce to sell, so you are a farmer. Unlike the other two commenting on here.
I don't believe they farm anything, homestead anything, and wonder if they are even real people. Probably not. I'm waiting for someone to be called a nazi, because that's usually next.

I guess I know what the word "Troll" means now.
