Probably didn't have any discussions on how it is nearly impossible to keep food on the table while keeping these farms operating when having to comply with crushing taxes and regulatory fees. Unless, you periodically sell off parcels of land or the entire farm before becoming homeless.
@DDub529@ClownWorld While Ford's seem to be plagued by endless recalls, one thing is certain... They sure know how to make them more visually appealing than anything Tesla produces. Tesla's are simply ugly, especially their "truck".
@RepJohnMcGuire So another act of not really doing anything to reduce government intrusion in Americans lives or working to reduce government waste and spending. To be expected from a weak empty suit politician with a weaker effeminate handshake.
@RepJohnMcGuire You support this because Israel purchased you through AIPAC. The only thing weaker than your support of America is your effeminate hand shake.
What the #Founders Said About Section 224 / 219 / 1217
My fellow Citizens read history:
George Washington — Farewell Address, 1796
"It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world; so far, I mean, as we are now at liberty to do it; for let me not be understood as capable of patronizing infidelity to existing engagements."
"The nation which indulges toward another an habitual hatred or an habitual fondness is in some degree a slave."
"Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humor or caprice?"
Thomas Jefferson — First Inaugural Address, 1801
"Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none."
Thomas Jefferson — to James Monroe, 1823
"Our first and fundamental maxim should be, never to entangle ourselves in the broils of Europe. Our second, never to suffer Europe to intermeddle with cis-Atlantic affairs."
John Adams — to the Grand Jury, 1798
"We are friends of all nations, but we are the enemies of none. We wish the prosperity and happiness of all, but we will not be the instruments of any foreign power."
James Madison — to Congress, 1792
"The Constitution supposes what the history of all governments demonstrates, that the executive is the branch of power most interested in war and most prone to it. It has accordingly with studied care vested the question of war in the legislature."
Alexander Hamilton — Federalist No. 8
"The military state becomes elevated above the civil. The inhabitants of territories, frequently the theatre of war, are liable to the oppressions of military officers."
Benjamin Franklin — to the Constitutional Convention, 1787
"The system of America is commerce with all and war with none."
The Common Thread
Every founder warned against exactly what Section 224 creates: permanent structural entanglement that removes the people's ability to choose peace, subordinates American military decisions to foreign interests, and makes war the default setting of the republic.
They didn't name Israel — they described the trap. Call it Section 224, 219, or 1217 — it's the same permanent alliance, the same foreign entanglement, the same grave the founders warned us about. The number changes. The betrayal doesn't.
Burn the NDAA. Vote it down. Every page, every provision, every dollar.
Let the whole bill die.
Section 219? Dead. Section 1217? Dead. The military merger with Israel? Buried.
Nothing passes. Nothing moves. Lock the chamber. Kill the session.
Vote no on everything. Let the NDAA rot.
