@BloonsIsTheKing@HeadOfTVDept Well if leftists stopped being so violent then we wouldn't be posting this stuff. Maybe stop trying to murder people ? 🤷♂️
@CoyoteBrown@9mmsmg Honestly, even if he gets that amount that's still an entire lifetime to him, being 18, and that's a major IF he doesn't catch additional charges in prison or worse.
@rocko_ca@visegrad24 Oh come on, beheading over a robbery? No...
And we all know whats going on here. This is 100% because backward migrants are being dumped into civilized countries.
@RealChrisLangan@Garnet_2203 Lol dont mind me I was just shitposting. In all seriousness though both Merkel and Leyen are symptoms of a much larger problem. The educated class think they're all knowing. C.S. Lewis had a great quote about that.the laborer was generally immune to the insanity of the "educated"
@RealChrisLangan@Garnet_2203 There were a lot of high IQ people in all the leadership positions in Germany in the 1930s and 1940s too. I wonder what they decided to do and how that played out? 🤷♂️
UPDATE: Here is the deal signed by Gov. Walz and legislative leaders. Highlights include: $200 million to HCMC from general fund. The ballpark tax of .15 in Hennepin County will end rather than turn into “health care tax.” $250 million to reduce license tab fees for 1 year. 1/2
Finally something we agree on, South Africans are not Americans.
The moment I set foot on American soil I denounced my South African citizenship and I became a proud Amerikaner. 🫡
Take note of the flag I fly, it is not a South African flag, nor a Palestinian flag or a Somali flag.
🚨 America is my country now.
Many Republicans will privately admit they're fairly libertarian.
They just don't want to be associated with the progressive freak show that is the Libertarian Party.
Most libertarians are right-wing. Libertarian nationalism lets us take our label back.
Better yet, the criminals venture outside minneapolis to commit more crime. If they steal anything they retreat back to minneapolis where the police won't put any effort into arresting them, even if you know where they are.
Minneapolis' troubles are just getting started.
The city has been one of the loudest advocates of defunding and abolishing the police, dismantling the justice department and normalizing crime.
After the 2020 riots, the force collapsed. You called them evil. They listened. They walked.
MPD authorized: 731 officers
MPD actual: ~570
Missing: 22% of the force
They didn't "officially" defund but got the job done through other means.
You elected Mary Moriarty. Pleas property crime down. Declines juvenile cases. Cops arrest, her office lets them walk.
Then your legislature raised the felony threshold on property crime. Expanded expungement.
This is what you marched for. This is what you wanted.
How does it look so far?
Homicide rate: TRIPLE the national average
Overall crime: up 13% since 2019
Vehicle theft: up 120-235%
Aggravated assault: up 100%
Robbery: up 20%
911 response times: up nearly 50%
Violent crime: 1,155 per 100K, 316% above the Minnesota average
Minneapolis is now a top 100 most dangerous city in America.
Congrats, I hope it was worth it.
The petrodollar is the foundation of American power. Since the 1970s, oil has only been sold in dollars, forcing every nation on earth to hold dollars, fund our debt, and keep us dominant.
Iran just systematically dismantled that. They closed Hormuz, cutting 25% of global oil supply. Spiked oil to $118 a barrel. Then forced ships to pay in Chinese yuan for passage. Now Gulf states are dumping US treasuries, bond markets are selling off, inflation is surging, Deutsche Bank is warning of a petroyuan era.
Every link in the petrodollar chain is snapping at once. When it's gone, your borrowing costs explode, your savings erode, and America loses the financial weapon that has kept us dominant for 50 years. China wins without ever pulling a trigger.
Friendly reminder as we approach the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere’s ride, that there was no fifth rider named Sybil Luddington. This teenager existed, she later collected a pension, but saying she rode that night was all a filthy lie her scumbag nephew made up to impress a women’s group decades later and since women are desperate to believe heroic tales of feminism, they built statues to her, instead of vetting Sybil’s hoeass nephew’s claims, when in fact, the ride her dirtbag nephew claims she made, was actually made by a man handpicked by The great Son of Liberty, Dr. Joseph Warren, named Isaac Bissell and I’m mad about her skankass nephew again.
🚨Alex Jones: “His team needs to grab him and 25th his ass and commit him.”
🚨Candace Owens: “He sacrificed Charlie Kirk. Trump is a madman and other countries need to move to have him removed.”
🚨Megyn Kelly: “Just shut the F—k up. He is a disgusting. He can’t behave like a normal person.”
🚨Tucker Carlson: “Vile on every level. Who do you think you are?” Then went on to insinuate he’s the Antichrist.
His post was more than warranted for you sick, grifting charlatans. He gave you your fame and money and you sold him out greed. Good riddance. We’re sick of it.
I love Minnesota, it's beautiful and I don't want to leave. My family is here, my memories are here.
I was driving into town this evening as the sun was setting over the cathedral - a stunning image.
If you look beyond the trash that covers the ground, the peeling paint and rust on the bridges, the graffiti, the homeless, the vacant buildings, the grass and weeds that haven't been cut in ages and the general decline caused by poor management and budgeting - you can still see the beauty of this state.
It's there, it can come back, but I don't know if it will in my lifetime.
I think I just have to accept Minnesota as it is. There are too many liberal/progressives/people who vote blue no matter who in this state. And they don't seem to mind the decline.
The Republicans don't have what's necessary to turn this thing around. A fed up Democrat is probably our only hope.
"I voted for mass deportations... but... not if anyone has to get hurt.
I voted for peace through strength... but not if anyone has to get hurt.
I posted about bringing back the crusades... but... not if anyone has to get hurt.
I wanted Trump to be a dictator... but like... not if anyone has to get hurt."
@9mmsmg Trump is pretty well known for the "look over here" approach. Only rational thing I can think of is he intends to do something else while everyone panics about nuclear war or total infrastructure destruction.
I’m noticing a lot of foreigners who seem to not understand why we’d risk hundreds of lives, spend millions of dollars, and sacrifice several aircraft to rescue one guy. And the reason they don’t understand is also the reason people can’t be made American by a piece of paper.
