Gorsuch dissented, as did Alito. I expected Amy to be a RINO, but what really shocked me is Kavanaugh. While I did expect him to be a RINO, after what they put him through, I thought he'd be Thomas 2.0. Sad!

Yeah Pfizer basically told India, look, you don't need to test shit, all these other countries have approved us and its working great! India was like, we trust you, but we're gonna verify real quick kapish? Pfizer FUMED.

India was clear: you're gonna have to hand over vaccines to us, and then WE will run the trial and make sure there's nothing wrong here. They might have even run some animal trials finally, who knows. That would be way too dangerous for Pfizer, if India ends up finding something abnormal, they're all fucked. Moderna didn't even bother trying.

Governor Kristi Noem. The only governor not to implement a ridiculous mask mandate or lockdowns. Leading by example.

Just because a mob of women supported disastrous policies, does not mean women shouldn't be allowed to... what the hell am I even having this discussion for, are you out of your mind?

There are no good subsidies. There are plenty of cheap electric sources such as clean coal. Let the free market work itself out. Without subsidies, we would have precisely 0 renewables because they are cost prohibitive and we would've never been in this dire a situation in the first place.

For a long time, wind turbines getting more popular because of subsidies. But NEVER is it ok to join back the federal grid. Fuck that. Whenever some dingus brings this up, I just have a very simple answer: the texas government failed, and your solution is more government? Pass.

Because it's a tax cut for the rich, and somehow, they've managed to convince, or perhaps the word is dupe, the poor, who there's a lot of, to make the poor and the middle pay it. What do you think a 7k tax credit for a Tesla is, that they're tryna reintroduce? That's literally the middle class subsidizing a tax break for people earning 200k+. I can't afford a 75k car, but the dude that can is gonna get a 10% discount paid for by, you guessed it, you and me.

It's insane. We had no power or running water today. Power is restored now, it's been on for over an hour, and Abott claims many hundreds of thousands have been restored, so I'm hoping we're one of them. Water's still out, hopefully none of the pipes froze and they're able to fill up the tanks again and begin filtration and roll it out.

Whats worse is since the water ran out, we went to the store, albeit slowly as the road conditions were abysmal, but all the shelves were bare. They had put drapes on the freezer shelves essentially meaning that there was nothing available in terms of dairy or meats, but people were going behind it and just grabbing things just in case, hoping it hadn't gone bad. There was no water.

I was there with my father, and we just decided to buy a dozen 2 litter bottles of soda to be able to flush the toilets. What the fuck is this, Venezuela?

It can't completely be blamed on wind turbines indeed, there is gross incompetence at play here, but certainly if we're on that subject, I will say that I want absolutely 0 subsidies in renewables or oil. Eliminate all the subsidies and taxes on energy, and let the free market play out. Stop with all the absurd restrictions in the name of climate, if you actually believe in that, invest in those companies that are dealing with it with your own money, and heck, you may even make a few bucks. But don't force me into paying for what you believe: that's called slavery, and it's been abolished.

I knew about Thomas Sowell, but not him. What a great find, a brilliant visionary. One of my goals is to read every book written by Sowell, and I'm gonna add Williams to the list as well now. Listening to Dr. Peterson and his recommendations as well. It's so liberating to be able to hear these points that I've never thought about before and realize how little I know and how little education I actually received. But its OK. I'm going to read, and try to match even 1% of these guys' intellect, and I'll think that'll be a success.

It's a valid question, but you are dooming. The explanations are on point, and a small patriotic bunch of mods, nearly 30 or so, are single handedly propping up the largest and freest center of speech on the internet. This site is more popular than Gab, Parler, Minds, and pretty much anything and everything else that's out there which doesn't instantly suppress conservative views. There has not been any monetizing of .wins so far, and the mods are working tirelessly to grow the community beyond just that of politics. Of course, you're probably a troll, given the fact that you're a new account, so I don't even know why I'm bothering explaining this.

Anyways, the parallels here between what's happening to these brave patriots and what happened to President Trump are uncanny. They're trying to drain the swamp, and people are getting uneasy because the status quo is shifting.

Where's that tweet? The closest thing I see is https://twitter.com/LLinWood/status/1345065245497323523

Link (archive is fine too) or LARP and you will be deported.
