Trump is back…the “Now What” thread

[stanley_white]

What say you on the House’s bill for funding the government?

I feel like one can address the national debt or lower individual taxes and it seems like the latter is the priority.

If you could choose only one, which would it be?

the tax cuts from the first trump term were going to expire, so i think everyone's taxes would have gone up.

The two are interconnected. It’s a catch 22. If the taxes are reduced it adds to the debt, there simply hasn’t been enough reductions through DOGE to be meaningful and the taxes are required to pay on the increasing debt. Its just where we are.

I get it.

I also think it is hypocritical.

If you want to lessen national debt, bring the pain.

If you don’t want to bring the pain, then stop complaining about the national debt.

The ugly truth is that we are so far in the hole the only way out is some form of default on the debt. It may come in any number of names but it’s all the same with respect to the outcome.

Are there really thousands of transgenders in the military???

 

[Malum Prohibitum]

Google says yes, almost all of them are women taking male hormones - I guess it would fit their delusion to think they are men and serve and a masculine soldier warrior dude . . .

 

[Malum Prohibitum]

Here's How Much the Pentagon Has Spent So Far to Treat Transgender Troops

The Pentagon has spent $15 million in the past five years to treat 1,892 transgender troops, Defense Department data provided to Military.com shows.

the internet says there are more that 14k in the military.
i don't know if that is an actual count or an estimate based on the total number of troops.
according to active duty people, very few if any are actually deployed to combat regions.

I saw that, but those are estimates from an LGBTQ+ activist group, Palm Center, so they have an incentive to lie in order to swing American opinion with false propaganda. The military has not released any such figure, and it is very unclear where Palm Center got those numbers, but everybody in the media seems happy to run with them.

Seems way, way too high to me.

If you read the 2021 link in post # 1775, they mention about 1800, and that comes directly from the military. It may not be all, however, as this is the number on which the military spent money for transgender "medical" services. Also, the vast majority of those are female to male, which mainly consists of very cheap vials of testosterone and syringes. They get their haircuts the same as anybody else. Testosterone, a butch haircut, and in the military, and they think they are dudes.

Only 243 "surgeries," and I am not familiar enough with the process to know whether one person gets multiple surgeries, but I would guess that is true, meaning very, very few military personnel getting transgender surgery. Certainly not 14,000 or 15,000.

Also, if the surgery is expensive, and these folks see a way to get it "for free," that may be a big incentive for them to go into the military to finally "truly be me" or whatever. And even with that incentive, we have so very few out of 2 million service members.

I think the Palm Center numbers are BS propaganda and wishful thinking by LBGTQ+ activists. The more they can pump up those numbers, the more they hope Americans will perceive this as "normal." The Military Times numbers are much closer to revealing the correct numbers.

Note that most of the money spent was for "psychotherapy." That tells me most of what I need to know.

For a minute, I thought Trump was going to bitch slap him all the way back to Kiev. Putin has to be laughing his ass off right now!

 

[748rpilot]

So let me just check to make sure I have this right: Tom Satterly, a career Delta operator with 2 decades in The Unit, had to separate from the Army because of a failed drug test for exogenous male hormones, but now the .mil is paying to give those same hormones to women that think they are men?

How the fuck is that ok??

Maybe this is a bit personal for me, but: when I was bed-ridden in the hospital, unable even turn onto my side or hold a cup of water due to (high speed) trauma and a spinal cord injury, I was denied access to steroids to prevent muscle wasting, even though that is a legitimate, on-label use of certain steroids.

But all these child and adult females that think they are men, are able to get prescribed steroids for OFF-LABEL uses related to a mental disorder? And if they join .mil, our taxes pay for it?

I'm well fucked off about this.

 

[Snuby642]

After seeing this maybe instead of just turning off the cash flow to the Ukraine he should tell them to go ahead and negotiate with Putin directly .

The dancing faggot is under the illusion that the US will continue to supply money and weapons. Even worse, as he demonstrated in the oval office, he can appeal directly to the American people. Then, in turn, the people will put pressure on Trump and the Republicans to turn on the money faucet again. He is truly delusional.

Yep only Netanyahu can do that...

 

[JoshPutman]

That sawed off little runt sure does act entitled to our money, doesn't he?

Fuck him.

All monetary support should be cut off immediately, as well as any negotiations on his behalf.

President Trump should have grabbed the little fuckers earlobe like a pissed off mother and marched his ass right out the fucking door, putting a foot in his ass to provide propulsion.

 

[Snuby642]

Don't know how many noticed President Trump's face and body language before he decided to talk.

It had the distinct look of " I'm done with this shit".

Seen it and also used it all my life.

There are consequences and this is just the beginning.

I watched this, and I guess my take is different from everybody else.

Here we have the Presidents of two countries present, with the news cameras rolling, and JD Vance, the Vice President, starts to give Zelensky a dressing down and does not even give him a chance to respond. Then Trump piles in on top.

I saw nothing in that video that the Ukrainian President did that was "disrespectful" as others have claimed.

What I saw was theater to put Zelensky on the spot and then make a big show of claiming he was disrespectful, when, frankly, he barely got two utter two complete sentences without being talked over and shouted at and had fingers pointed at him for emphasis like a child. My guess is Trump thinks this is a good negotiating strategy to extract what he wants from Ukraine in natural resources.

To all who are claiming that it was Zelensky who was disrespectful, I can't help but wonder if you even watched the video.

 

[Malum Prohibitum]

But out of the main camera shot was another sight in the room. Zelensky's ambassador to Washington, Oksana Markarova, who was spotted with her head in her hands as the arguments escalated.

Little Z has been disrespectful to the US from the time he assumed is position. He's looked at us like he was Uncle Sam's trust fund baby. He's talked tough as long as the US and Western Europe had his back.

Recall that Trump, in his first term, wanted $14 Billion for a border wall. The democrats and RINOs said that was too much for protecting the US. Yet, the glorious grifters in our capital haven't hesitated to give Little Z $350 Billion!

He went in the backrooms and sucked off the turds willing to give him our money. Lefty Graham and his Boyfriend, John McStain were two of the biggest war mongers that got blow jobs from Little Z. Then came Biden & Company.

Vance was right; Little Z campaigned for the Brown Kackler last year. Oh and don't forget about Little Z's concubine going on a spending spree in New York and Paris for the latest fashions, baubles and cars for about a million of OUR dollars.

He's acting like our money is his God-given right to do with in any way he wishes without accountability.

Little Z has shut down churches, silenced opposition speech and closed down opposition news outlets in the Ukraine.

He has a callous disregard for life as his press-gangs roam the streets and villages kidnapping young men to be used for cannon fodder. As long as people are available; he will continue to fight.

PS: If it hadn't been for Trump, Ukraine would have been rolled up by Putin in no time and Little Z would have been eliminated. This is the thanks we get from the little prick.

He's like a drunk girl I once saved from getting raped. She was passed out at the time and didn't know what was going on. So I stopped the creep. I didn't get any thanks from her and didn't expect any.

Yet, by getting drunk, she allowed herself to get in that situation in the first place. Little Z is too drunk on power in his little kingdom to face reality and thinks we should kiss his ass. Fuck that little POS.
