1) Provide the lie told by Tucker, the first word of the sentence, the middle words, and last word of the sentence. (Suzianne)
2) Re the question on the Lia monster swimming with girls: Sonhouse approves of it. However. He was non-responsive to my query…”Would you be in favor of it if he was swimming against your daughter?” (Question was asked 12 times over 4 months)
...[text shortened]... be answered by either conservatives or by liberals . ( The ones above are lib-toxic, as an example)
Okay. A Tucker Carlson lie: ?si=PyuYU2Z9lqEL8u3d

He said, and it is in the clip, that police gave insurrectionists a tour on January 6th. The video also debunks the claim, proving it a lie.
And seriously. This “give us one lie by Tucker” seems to be your go-to, but it’s been answered so often, you sound like a nut-job stuck in a loop.
You just don’t like the answers.

I’ve answered your question about trans people in sports many times before as well: it is actually a fascinating point. The only point which is interesting in all of your doubts about other folks’ genders. And there is no clear cut answer to it yet.
My personal view is: sports is a game. Lighten up. Who the hell really cares who swims fastest. Just watch porn instead.

There are many welfare states. Or states which have various degrees of welfare systems. It’s long been proven they work; less unemployment, less poverty, better health care in general and lower infant death rates.
No borders has not existed yet. But open borders do. Look at the EU as an example. Open borders (within the union) and it has not negatively affected the welfare systems of the countries involved.

If you look at the planet as a whole, there is no reason to worry about open borders / no borders affecting welfare systems in the long run. And also, when taking the span of control into account, there is no reason to expect there won’t be regional differences.

What you, my cuddly little cracker, need to do is chill. Stop worrying about all these non-issues. You get your knickers in a twist about things which don’t matter one way or another and won’t effect you in any meaningful way.

Relax and have a happy 2024!

If they ‘guided’ them for one second, then they did, so my take is…he did not lie. It erupted thereafter. Oh, an inconvenient point?

On your empty trans answer….if you take your 11-yr old daughter to her swim meet at 2pm today, and the moderators allow a 6’2” man with hairy chest and arm pits, muscular legs and large male-size hands, huge thighs and lats, him being a man, to enter the competition against Your Daughter, would you find that natural, acceptable, a sign of the times, cool, and be really into the match?

If you did not have children but your neighbor was father of the male swimmer, would you attend the event and cheer on the male swimmer to win?
I don’t get what you mean about watching porn?

This aberrant Shav says open borders do not affect the ‘system’ of an organized governed society. He says, for some inane reason, to ‘look at the EU.” He uses phrases like ‘various degrees’ and ‘has not negatively affected the welfare Systems”. Shav insults the intelligence of all of you. You will not let a communist insult your intelligence, surely?

Edit: Wow, we learn he thinks sports is a game. I think it is an art. Could this porn hustler excel on a golf course? He is no artist. And consider that he has, more than once, said free housing is a human right. You should have that nugget in the back of your mind when you read his posts.
He is a weak debater, as he will not answer the 2 swim meet questions. Oh, he will write in the style of Sonhouse, but he will not answer. Let us just say we ‘just won’t like his answers’.

Any cost will be made up many times over when these people become integrated into our economy and become productive, working citizens which is what they fervently desire.

You apparently don't understand the concept of "investment".
Marauder says in effect that they will come here and we will be fine. So if my bum brother in law moves in with us, and 3 months later his wife moves in, too, he says that I can alter my budget and make do. Everything will be fine. That will do it, it will all work out.
But what if people NEVER NEVER stop coming? They just keep coming.? The budget dwindles, life as we know it ends.
Your answer will probably be omnipotent, they will become self-supporting!!! There are people in this Forum who are dependent on government. What makes you think they will be any different?
Yes, Marauder predicts all will be ok, but he speaks from the experience of his Marx teachings. He would be correct if, in fact, he prevails with wealth redistribution. Does that mean that I will have to pay for a foreigner’s abortion, etc? AvJoe sound mean? Wait till you have to pay for it. But then , in Marauder’s world, you will be promised enough to eat.

Actually I speak from the experience of the United States, a country built and enriched by immigrants.


In the last year I can quickly find stats for, 2018, 63.4% of foreign born adults in the US were employed, compared to 59.8% of native born adults. https://www.cbpp.org/research/immigrants-contribute-greatly-to-us-economy-despite-administrations-public-charge-rule

Rave on. All of this is to bless an open border. We get it.
Everyone get your cheeseburgers stocked up. But you will never have enough.

You really don't have any idea how to debate, do you? You just rely on lies and propaganda not facts.

There is, of course, no "open border" as the fact that 1.2 million persons were removed from the US in the first six months of 2023 makes abundantly clear. But our immigration system does need reform to more quickly resolve asylum cases and also return to the idea that we should want people to immigrate to this country and thus the presumption should be they are allowed to unless there is a very good reason not to accept them. Right now, perversely, even though the economic benefits of immigration are beyond dispute (if one is reasonable, which you are not), we discourage immigration.

This double talk is so much crap. How about your little diversionary tactic with your first sentence, that 1.2 million have been removed. You would think if you were being genuine that you would first cite how many came here, from which a certain number were sent back. This is so much double talk.
Anyway, we are looking at maybe 6 million people in three years. That averages 2 million a year, but of course they will be over 3 million this final year due to the wider opening. You know, the idea opening. Yeah, more people.
Marauder is saying that the country will flourish with these people who walk into this country with their hands in their pockets. And no money. Next he will wax on about the Statue of Liberty, and about the people that came in at Ellis Island, and the way it was back, then…. it was normal discussion, he will not mention that when they stepped off at Ellis Island , they had to fend for themselves, they were no welfare handouts to those people. So sad? Not necessarily. It made them self -reliant.
Your posts are about the most flowerdy ruminations, and quasi philosophy that I have ever seen on the Forum.. Tied in with the links, and I get dizzy.
Note that, in all these years, marauder has never typed the words self reliant. ‘Nuff said.

The immigrants did it without welfare, off of the scratch of the land. I say let these immigrants have at it themselves and leave us all the hell alone.
Oh, but first we need to know who they are, and get all their fingerprints and have Mexico send us all the records on each and everyone, and limit the number of them. Can you believe there are people on this forum that want all that want to come in come in? Oh, I think you are one of those people.

Why don't you leave them "the hell alone"?

What you can't seem to get through your thick skull is that immigration is good for a country and that acting on your ignorant bigotry would amount to cutting off the US' nose to spite its face.

We can easily handle 2-3 million immigrants a year; the country has a population of almost 340 million. No one would be overly concerned that we had 3.7 million more people in this country after 2022 because of births and those newborns are not going to meaningfully contribute to the economy for decades, unlike immigrants. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/databriefs/db477.pdf

Then, what is the limit per year. And need we vet them? Because, we are not. But you care not, nor would socialist leaders, which we have now. They just want bodies, to dilute our society, become dependent, and thus live under socialism, dictated over by socialists.
Dictated. Arrest you getting this Sonhouse! Socialists are dictators. I know I know, I don’t like it either.

Oh, what is the limit per year? Why not? Should there be?

Why take exception to my ‘leave us alone’? You think we should leave THEM alone? How so? Please tell us.

Don't know; it depends on the economic situation and the number seeking asylum.

I know current law allows those who reach this country to apply for asylum but we don't have enough administrative judges to process the claims in a timely manner. We should hire a lot more ALJs like Biden proposed. And personally I'd make it so those seeking asylum didn't have to jump hoops to get it but that applications are granted unless there is a good reason not to.

Most of what you say is BS and the ranting about "socialism! socialism!" is boring idiocy.

No, I think you and other ill-informed, ignorant MAGA bigots should "leave them alone".

If they qualify for asylum, they should get it; if they don't, they shouldn't. There's simply no reason for the level of hate you spew at these people, calling those who want to come to the US and work and provide better lives for themselves and their families as "parasites" as an obvious example.

AOC is quite influential and is a socialist. She is not the only one. The whole squad is. But let us just ignore them, is that what you’re saying? Obama is definitely still in the fight, and his whole mantra has been to transform America and redistribute wealth. So your not-socialism mantra, falls on deaf ears. Y’all are rabid as hell. And you are disingenuous as usual,
In short, you ain’t kidding nobody.
And man , you are quite,m casual about how easy it could be to moderate migrants aliens to our personal satisfaction. Ha ha ha ….if it were feasible, it would be underway right now. What’s stopping you little soldiers?
