End to KCM due to morons in our ranks? But seriously why do government employees have unions? It’s like having our military unionized…

The adults are back in charge.
Waste has been prominent.
The children are whining because they can’t spend (as much of) other people’s money so much, any longer.
my f.o. last month was a Marxist.
God was he miserable.

Spoken like a petulant child. Guess you think playing golf on the taxpayers dime is efficient. Fourteen times since inauguration - trumpgolftrack.com. Can’t wait for summertime when all the chaos at the FAA and TSA comes home to roost.

Yep, and the one before him spent 500+ days of his presidency on vacation.

You must have missed this part of the article:

Basically, we use the standard of all or part of any day spent at a Biden-style vacation destination (e.g., Wilmington/Rehoboth/Camp David/etc) as a vacation day — which is the exact same standard The Washington Post assigned to President Trump during his first term.

Seems fair to me.

TDS is running wild with you guys.

Which is it, is he doing too much or playing too much golf. Both can’t be true.

Maybe there is an option three, you’ll get mad at anything he does.

‘he wasnt in charge anyway… did you not read today’s headline on how all his signed orders were done via auto pen and he didn’t personally sign anything since 2021.

Nevermind the fact that at the end of the Biden term GDP was 3.1%, unemployment was at a 54 year low of 3.4%, 48 consecutive months of job growth, inflation down to 3% and handled better than any other major economy in the world from the highs of the pandemic.

It takes some special skills to turn a 3.1 GDP into a recession inside of a year. I guess one who views tariffs as an all encompassing and non inflationary economic policy possess such acumen.

Did Russian invade Ukraine? Is Russia the aggressor?

If your answers mimic your dear leaders then you should burn your military ID.

I don’t care if Trump plays golf. When he’s doing that he isn’t tanking our retirement accounts. Sure hope he doesn’t whack your Mil retirement, healthcare and other benefits. That would be terrible if his policies affected you personally.

Wow. You cite a direct quote from the RNC author of the allegation, who didn’t answer follow on questions. Conveniently ignored the rest of the story too. Gonna have to cite a more credible source if you want me to not roll my eyes, preferably one not paid from DJT’s coffers.

The government shouldn't be running airports, or airport security.

One president allowed 12,000 illegal immigrants a day into the country and had the audacitity to tell the American people , "The border is secure" and , "There is nothing more I can do".

Another president has stopped illegal immigration to the point that only 214 illegals a day came across the border.

Which president had the secure border and did it in 40 days?

I'll take facts over emotions and "OMG, like the sky is falling, or it will fall or it might fall". The only thing I saw falling was Biden, falling going up the stairs, down the stairs and across the stage (on the occasions he could find his way to exit the stage). But he was "running circles around" KJP, "nobody could keep up with him". YGBFSM

how so?

if anything didn’t this just prove TSA was even more pointless?

Hopefully he can lay most all of them off and we can unwind as much of the 9/11 nonsense as possible

I do understand that giving up his modest salary has a value to the man well beyond the dollar amount. His supporters stare at it like a shiny object in the hands of an amateur magician. Nevermind what’s going on with his other hand where the big money is - DJT, cryptocurrency, NFTs, political contributions which support his lifestyle, and of course Trump merchandise. Wonder why he keeps going back and forth with tariffs? (Hint - he knows how the market will react and can profit from each swing).

Race Bannon 03-10-2025 01:32 AM

If anybody cares for a big picture of the economy in 9 graphs as opposed to hyperventilating.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/04/busin...irc_end_recirc

But "eggs"! Look at the graph and input your commodity du jour. If not for bird flu their wouldn't be much of a talking point on either side.


Does it sound like the Fed is losing their ever lovin' shizz?

https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/07/econo...omy/index.html

Let's stop fear mongering and give it a minute. We got thru the "transitory inflation" of the past 4 years. Until inflation it goes above 9% like it hit in the last 4 years, I'll take it in stride.

Interesting how a candidate who places so much value on border control torpedoes comprehensive, bipartisan border reform solely on political election purposes.

currently selling access to the president at 5 million a plate, plus selling other crap, not to mention billions from his pump and dump schemes. Not taking a salary is laughable. He is selling access publicly

The bill that was completed last year that the orange one didn’t want because it would have killed his talking point.

anyone ate a dog or cat lately? Which Trump supporter is going to volunteer their underage daughter to spend a weekend with Andrew Tate. Importing criminals was what the Trumpers accused Biden of doing yet Trump does it loud and proud and the group applauds.

They are also rather meek and ineffective. I wouldn’t use them as the poster child for what a professional
military is, relative to the US. Maybe use the UK, they’re at least closer. I have no idea if they have a union though.

SoFloFlyer 03-10-2025 06:42 AM

Right… So back on topic. Government employees shouldn’t be unionized. They’re not getting fired, relax people

Government is unilaterally canceling union contracts & our union brothers are applauding it. File that under “this is why we can’t have nice things”. I certainly have my opinions about the size & scope of TSA but the administration’s (dis)regard for organized labor is discouraging.
Remember we’ll be at the negotiating table again in a few years & possibly trying to claw back some purchasing power from the tariff economy. Question: do you think this move creates an environment that empowers labor or management?

Congressional stock trading is a scam, but I fail to see what it has to do with the TSA. Pretty sure the blue shirts are not making millions off insider trading.

Andrew Tate the American born influencer and legal dual citizen? Compared to this https://www.foxnews.com/us/la-murder-suspects-good-samaritan-who-tried-stop-catalytic-converter-theft-were-country-illegally

Two "alleged" illegal killers with more than 25 arrests between the two of them, all over a $50 catalytic converter.

Would you volunteer your underage daughter to Hunter Biden for the weekend? What a stoopid question. This is about as ridiculous as, "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?".

Trump's meme coin is down 99.4% from the peak. Talk about scams, TDS and teaching pigs to sing (sad songs).
