Haven't posted in about a week. I had to get away from the inane stupidity that permeates this thread.

Here is a 15 minute video. This will show you how Trump is strangling Iran from every economic vantage point. The IRGC is fighting amongst themselves. So why we are not firing many weapons, the Iranian Islamic Republic is dying from the inside.

Trump is not losing as a few on this board want to shout about. It's not over, but it will be over in the not too distant future. The new sanctions imposed by Bessent are going to squeeze their gonads even tighter.

There is a commercial during the video

This may have been posted, but the U. S. Navy is helping tankers get through the Straits of Hormuz in a stealth corridor near Oman. About 10 million barrels per day.

The #blindmice prefer we-Trump lose the war to Iran as opposed to succeed. Mind you this war has dragged on for many years....11/04/1979.....with the death of many American service men in Iraq primarily...these people have American blood dripping from their hands yet the #blindmice cheer for them because the mainstream media gaslighted them to.

I told you a few weeks ago that act blue funding issues were going to rear it's ugly nasty head soon.. Act Blue will be tied to Fraud and foreign actress funding. This is not going to be pretty experience for our resident #blindmice.

Remember Shawn Taylor the MillersvilleTn Asst chief of police? if you recall, he was threatened by various high-ranking officials in the state of Tennessee and had gunshots fired into his home. This is going to link Al Gore, the head of the state police, numerous judges and prosecutors, and also the former Republican US senators Coaker and Lamar Alexander. Child trafficking will eventually be tied into this. what I say, child trafficking I don't mean this simply child prostitutes, I mean, children put in shipping crates

Obama will be linked to Lamar relationship, business relationship

Turley is a sharp dude. I enjoy his perspective on foreign policy matters.

I ask, who are the puppets for Corporate America and the billionaire class? International corporations cost of goods from slave, labor, or peasant, labor overseas is minuscule, and the middleman and or Corporate America, Marc up these goods for windfall profits.

🚨🔥 SCOTT BESSENT JUST WENT FULL SCORCHED EARTH 🔥🚨
Treasury Secretary Bessent COMPLETELY LOST IT after Target pocketed a $1 BILLION tariff refund.
He EXPLODED:
“DEMOCRAT Attorneys General filed a RIDICULOUS lawsuit so the money goes BACK to the corporations. That is CORPORATE… pic.twitter.com/eWgEFiwbja

Please explain to me how this is a conservative principle:

"The American people HAD that money in the Treasury… and were FORCED to GIVE IT BACK!"

you and I talk in different languages. I speak of sovereignty of the American people. You speak of conservative....u can define that for me . does conservative mean to you that the middleman and international corporations should be pocketing the money in lieu of the tariffs that are going towards the cost of providing services to the American sovereign?

pretty amazing statement here. Basically it boils down to this - you are a socialist, you believe in the collective, or at least that's what you're promoting.

I am a capitalist and believe in the individual.

#dave, I don't see any reference to a Capitalist or any reference to a Conservative in the Declaration of Independence or the US Constitution...........however, sovereignty is. Here's an AI review for you.


American sovereignty in the Declaration of Independence is the idea that political authority comes from the people of the United States themselves not from the British Crown, Parliament, or any external power. The Declaration asserts that once the colonies dissolved their political ties with Britain, they became a "free and independent" nation possessing all the powers that sovereign states normally exercise.

Core meaning of sovereignty in the Declaration
The Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776) makes several foundational claims about sovereignty:

• Legitimate government authority comes from the consent of the governed.
  This principle rejects monarchy and hereditary rule, asserting that the American people are the ultimate source of political power.
• The colonies have the right to alter or abolish a government that violates their rights.
  By declaring independence, Americans exercised this right, claiming full authority to establish a new political order.
• The United States is now a sovereign nation equal to other nations.
  The Declaration explicitly states that the "United States of America" has the powers of any sovereign statesuch as making war, forming alliances, and conducting trade.

How the Declaration declares sovereignty
The key operative clause reads that the colonies "are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states." This phrase is the legal and philosophical heart of American sovereignty. It means:

• They are no longer subject to British laws or authority.
• They possess full international standing.
• They can govern themselves without external interference.

This was not merely symbolic. It was the final step in a long process of political separation driven by increasing British oppression and colonial resistance.

Jefferson's explanation of the Declaration's purpose
Thomas Jefferson later wrote that the Declaration was meant to express the "American mind"the shared political philosophy of the colonistsand to justify independence to the world. It was not intended to be novel, but to articulate widely held principles about rights and self-government.

Sovereignty in the international sense
By declaring independence, the United States claimed:

• Domestic sovereignty authority over its own internal affairs.
• External sovereignty recognition as a nation capable of diplomacy, war, and treaties.

This claim was essential for securing foreign alliances (especially with France) and for functioning as a nation on the world stage.


The Declaration of Independence establishes American sovereignty by asserting that the people, not a king, are the ultimate source of political authority, and by declaring the United States a fully independent nation with all the powers of a sovereign state.
.
The U.S. Constitution deepens and operationalizes the sovereignty first claimed in the Declaration of Independence by placing all political authority in "We the People" and building a government that can only act through powers derived from that popular sovereignty.

Pay attention to these, among others, over the coming weeks and months.

- They can govern themselves without external interference.

- We the people

- Americans exercised this right, claiming full authority to establish a new political order.

You're under 30, or over 30? Essentially every word you post shows you're barely 30, if you are.

Spoon feeding #dave in his high chair, and he still needs a bib.

Does the Declaration of Independence or the US Constitution discuss Capitalism or Conservativism?

Short answer:
No. Neither the Declaration of Independence (1776) nor the U.S. Constitution (1787) mentions capitalism or conservatism, either explicitly or implicitly.
You should confirm details with a trusted source.

Wow.

So his military campaign failed, and now he's horny to escalate our tariff trade war with China which will drive up prices (more, again) so he can tell us all to buy less meat, and how he doesn't care that gas is at historic highs.

All to keep Iran from having nukes that he'd allegedly already eliminated with his bunker buster attack last year.

All for a war he never should have gotten in, which he got in to try to fellate Bibi or because he was bored, or it made him look more alpha than Obama, or something.

True 4D chess.

Nice stats. Appreciate the quantification instead of hyperbole or ad hominem.

And not saying they're wrong.

But of August 20, 2026, regular gasoline is averaging roughly $4.10/gallon nationally. AAA reports this is the highest price ever recorded for the month of August.

Gas prices have never previously remained above $4 nationally this late in the summer; the previous major price shocks had subsided below $4 by August.

It doesn't mention socialism either but you seem smitten with it.

Tariffs and excise taxes funded much of our govt prior to the 21st century and they have generated a great deal of revenue for our federal govt today with very little inflation observed. Rid ourselves of the massive fraud and we might return to a balanced federal budget.

Political claims aside, this is to be expected, not merely because of the Persian Gulf situation but because Ukrainian targeting of the Russian petroleum sector is becoming so effective that Russia is buying gasoline from India. The world energy supply is under immense strain. Hell, world equity and credit markets are, too.

My question is why would she be targeting the New York State Legislature? Those leftists in Albany are pretty much on the same page as the radical Islamists with their crazy ideas.

Glad the FBI stopped it, but there are going to be copycats and other planned attacks. Law enforcement has to be right every time. The terrorists just have to be right once for a real tragedy.
