    Call it whatever you want and I don't mind being on the record. All of that is still tin foil hat material

    LOL....wow, you are far out on that limb aren't you? It's funny how you lump me in with the 10% of wackos on the left when that's simply not true. I am not even sure what "woke" means and I have no intention of destroying America. I fought for her.

    Remember that when you're being deported to Mexico. But don't worry, you can hire coyotes to smuggle you back in.

    Beat them to the punch - hide your money in Swiss or Cayman banks, some in crypto....then just move to the Mexican Riviera.

    That's exactly what you and your clueless ilk have done. First few days in office Biden eliminated thousands of good paying career jobs by killing the pipeline and opened the door for thousands of unvetted illegal aliens to flood the country and be released into the country with Covid19. Appointments for key positions are now based on the color of skin and gender of the appointee.

    If I had to apply for a job now I would have to identify as a gay black-hispanic person of unspecified gender.

    they are not career jobs. the pipeline is a temporary project that was estimated to take 2-3 years to build. so while those jobs were lost, it's not like they were permanent jobs. personally i have nothing against the pipeline as we will need fossil fuels for a while until technology allows us to move away from them, either partially or altogether. that said, killing the project isn't the end of the world as you imply.

    I have heard this repeated from other Trumpers but the truth is that Biden has allowed for 25,000 asylum seekers to enter the country over a period of time. Another of your talking points is that there is no way to vet these people but that isn't true either. US customs and border patrol have every means necessary to do background checks, see if these individuals were criminals in their own country, etc. If you think that we are going to totally halt all immigration into the country you are crazy.

    It is true that Biden wanted his administration to look more representative of the American population. What is wrong with that as long as they are qualified to do the job?

    how you identify is up to you, dude. I personally identify as a straight honkey man.

    You are a moron. You have absolutely no clue how a pipeline welder makes money. Its always based on projects. The career is projects. When you eliminate projects, you eliminate careers.

    You shouldn't speak on things you don't know anything about.

    Its like saying saying being a home builder is a temporary job. Yea, no shit. You build one BUT THEN GO BUILD ANOTHER. That is, unless the government tells you "no"....

    My designation was 1C4. Back then we were called TACP's but today they call them JTAC's I believe. I was in the Air Force but lived and worked with the Army my whole career. After basic and tech training I went to Kuwait after Operation Desert Storm and did mostly training during my deployment. I went back to Kuwait in 1994 to assist with Operation Vigilante Warrior and returned to Kuwait two years later in 1996 for Operation Desert Strike. Are you a veteran too?

    hmmm.... i think the mexican government disagrees with you:

    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...tent&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter

    Detentions on the U.S border have surged since Biden took office on Jan. 20. Mexico has urged Washington to help stem the flow by providing development aid to Central America, from where most migrants come, driven by a humanitarian crisis.

    “They see him as the migrant president, and so many feel they’re going to reach the United States,” Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said of Biden the morning after a virtual meeting with his U.S. counterpart on March 1.

    “We need to work together to regulate the flow, because this business can’t be tackled from one day to the next.”

    Previously unreported details in the internal assessments, based on testimonies and intelligence gathering, state that gangs are diversifying methods of smuggling and winning clients as they eye U.S. measures that will “incentivize migration.”

    Apprehensions on the U.S.-Mexico border in February hit levels unseen since mid-2019, and were the highest for that month in 15 years, data reported by Reuters showed.

    Among U.S. steps Mexico worries are encouraging migration are improved support for victims of gangs and violence, streamlining of the legalization process, and suspension of Trump-era accords that deported people to Central America.

    Recent Mexican policies are also encouraging migration, according to one assessment. It saw potential fillips in measures such as offering COVID-19 vaccines to migrants, as well as better protections for undocumented children.

    One Mexican official familiar with migration developments, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said organized crime began changing its modus operandi “from the day Biden took office” and now exhibited “unprecedented” levels of sophistication.

    That includes briefing clients on the latest immigration rules, using technology to outfox authorities, and disguising smuggling operations as travel agencies, assessments showed.

    “Migrants have become a commodity,” the official said, arguing they were now as valuable as drugs for the gangs. “But if a packet of drugs is lost in the sea, it’s gone. If migrants are lost, it’s human beings we’re talking about.”

    Mexico’s security ministry, foreign ministry and national migration institute did not reply to requests for comment for this story. The White House and the Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

    Higher concentrations of migrants in border areas have encouraged gangs to recruit some as drug mules, and kidnap others for money, said Cesar Peniche, attorney general of Chihuahua, the state with the longest stretch of U.S. frontier.

    Both Mexican and U.S. policy should be more clear-cut so as not to spur illegal immigration, he told Reuters.

    Mexico has praised Biden for offering a pathway to citizenship to millions of U.S. residents of Mexican origin, and for rolling back Trump-era policies that sent U.S. asylum seekers back into Mexico to await their court hearings.
