The Resistance Begins

“The Qatari royal family bankrolls Hamas. This is Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, relative of the man who the US Defense Department has identified as the funder of the mastermind of the September 11 attacks and helped Khalid Sheikh Mohammed evade capture for many years.

Now they just bought their way into Trump’s inner circle.

This is the same regime that:

• Finances Hamas
• Was found guilty of bribing hundreds of European Union officials to sway policy in its favor
• Financed 9/11 attacks

And it’s not just Trump with his snout in the trough:

• Pam Bondi – Qatar’s registered lobbyist $115,000 per month
• Kash Patel – Security consulting for Qatar
• Eric Trump – Building Qatari-funded golf resorts
• Jared Kushner – Took $1.5B from Qatari and Emirati funds
• Lee Zeldin – His firm was paid by a Qatari-linked company
• Steve Witkoff – Business ties with Qatari interests
• Barry Bennett & Doug Watts – Secretly lobbied for Qatar
• Joey Allaham – Arranged Qatari meetings with Trump insiders

Qatar doesn’t spend billions for friendship. They don’t give ‘gifts’.
They invest to control. They’ve been cited as one of the most corrupt countries on earth, specifically for bribing targets and people it deems necessary to cultivate.”

Can anybody blow holes in this meme? Trump dumps on European allies and gets bought by the same folks who brought us 911 and bankrolled the October 7 attack on Israel. I’ll be happy to entertain push back. Say it isn’t so.

No. Sex transitions are not a luxury but a medical procedure.
You avoided “intrinsic”.

In matters of Statecraft a president should always accept gifts from those who finance anti-american terrorist organizations if these conditions are met:

  1. The president’s wealth and wellbeing is in no way tied to the fate of the country under attack by the terrorists (his own, in this case) he’s getting more free stuff from.

  2. You get a chance to mingle with other bourgeoisie and be seen on TV shaking hands with em.

  3. You are actually able to be flown to the Middle East without dying of a heartattack before they get you there.

And I’m not even calling The Don a traitor because there is no America to betray. It’s just a free-for-all of unruly individuals scrambling around trying to survive on a chunk of partitioned land owned and controlled by some rich guys. That’s not a civilization. That’s an open mic night at a comedy club.

During a Senate hearing Friday, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stated that there are “many really gold star rehabs that do it for a tiny fraction, like $20,000 to $40,000 a month”. This remark was made in response to Rep. Josh Harder, who claimed that the average American would have to pay over $286,000 out of pocket to receive similar addiction treatment that Kennedy had. Kennedy’s statement demonstrated how"out of touch" this wealthy scion of the Kennedy dynasty is with the reality of the average American, as the median U.S. income is under $40,000 per year.

…like plastic surgery is not covered by insurance except to restore natural function, and should definitely not be covered by taxpayer funds.

I don’t know if it’s true. However, for him to say before his first term that he can’t be bought just because he’d never run for office before is ridiculous. It’s the business people having undue influence in government that corrupts the entire thing. Usually they do that behind closed doors and avoid running for office if it’s going to be a too-obvious conflict of interests. Now they do it by executive order and just move faster than the courts. which is refreshing for people who will profit and have wanted to cut the red tape of bureaucracy for a long time.

If only it was someone who was dead set on increasing income-based housing until the inventory emergency is over, and sees it ain’t about profit until homelessness is as resolved as it can be on the side of those who balance powers to ensure social justice—without working harder than (but definitely as hard as) the ones seeking housing.

You were right about President Trump’s bluffing. In the infamous meeting with Zelinsky, Trump claimed that he’s the one holding the cards. But in the tariff deal with Xi Jinping, Trump was the one who blinked and backed down. The power of the American presidency has diminished since Trump took office. Now it looks like Xi Jinping is holding the highest cards. Trump has pushed away or deliberately threatened American allies, and trade partners leaving the United States more isolated on the world stage. His foreign policy or lack thereof has left America weak and Americans are paying the price. His tariffs are expected to cost the average American family $4600 annually with the greatest impact felt by low and middle income households. (americanprogress.org) Worse, the Trump administration has caused long lasting damage to US stability which was one of the foundation pillars of its economic strength.

…how so? …really explain this one to me.

But trans are naturally in the wrong body. That’s the point.
Your ignorance does not change that.
Why don’t you look into the topic in the spirit of enquiry, rather than just regurgitate white supremacist nationalist christianity?

Does that mean they admit they are mind, and not just (alive/functioning) body? Does that mean they admit to binary (complementary, not opposite) sexes?

Or are they, perhaps, confused about both?

The non-binary thinkers have co-opted the non-dualism (good being primary, evil being privation, rather than opposite, of primary) thinking…

But there’re two different dualisms going on here, which are good and evil, and mind and body, and somehow body/physical got linked with evil (in the case of the early gnostics).

And keep in mind there are only two sexes, and all else is disorder… a kind reframed as a blessing by Jesus (some who are tired of the game can understand this)… and they aren’t opposites.

Allow me to digress in an on-topic way…? waits for permission Thank you…

The cooperation of twos, rather than being dualistic opposites, are necessary for threes (families). But for the original family, think of it like dividing a line into three equal parts with two interruptions into (but now) one, then joining the end points to make an equilateral triangle, and repeating this infinitely with every segment of each new triangle. It is one, and it is never not three, but in order for that to be the case, it had to allow for (incorporate as part of its being/unity) the “two” interruption(s) as part of the iterations. The interruptions (the iterations) are always subsumed/one. And we (every one) are made in the image of the original iteration, which does not mean chronologically first. And this sort of iteration doesn’t even need to require sex. But it’s fun if you play it right. If you try to denature the rules, or the body—to cheat—away from its original function (ultimately self=other), rather than back to it—it is an indication of brokenness/loss of function (a kind of death).

When are you going to admit to your own confusion?

Binary thinkers are animals.
You need to evolve to see the nuance.
If Galileo, Newton, Einstein and Feynman were binary thinkers you would never have heard about them.

Your brain is stuck

GBNews??

Fucking Hell.
How low have you sunk?

The trouble with the US system of health is the deep corruption within the government.
insurance acts like a parasite which takes out about 20% before any prescription is written or treatment given.
There is a massive culture of overtreatment, where the hospitals and GPs are busnesses with captive customers who are vulnerable and little able to employ competition which would make business costs reduce.
Then there is the absurd runaway rates fo drugs and Big Pharma who has bought the Senate and Congress are free to charge what they like. Not only do they receive massive grants for research, but when they develop the drug they then hold onto the patent.
Pharma ,and Food are also in an evil alliance. Food corporations and Pharma control the government advice which validates dangerous addictive, sugar and other processed foods.

In SHORT. US health care gives piss poor value for money.

PS. Trump’s latest rantings about lowering drug costs is empty rhetoric. He does not have the power since the government do not control the system..

If he said that in Canada, or the UK it would means something.

What I am saying is not an argument for less government but MORE. In the UK, the NHS control drug prices through negoriation and economoes of scale, setting the prices on a national level.
You need an independant National Government agency with BALLS of the sort that DOGE is now in the habit of closing down.

Have a nice day

I dont think so.

The cost of living in Australia is not among the lowest in the Western world, but it’s also not the most expensive.

While Australia ranks as one of the more expensive countries to live in globally, it’s often positioned outside the top 10, and its cost of living is generally higher than some other Western nations like the UK and the US.

  • Global Ranking:

GQ Australia lists Australia as 13th most expensive in the world. Wise also places it at 12th in terms of global cost of living.

Trump proposed a 145% tariff on all Chinese goods. He claimed that the Chinese would come begging for a deal. They didn’t. They slapped. I think it was 125% tariff on all American goods. They showed no inclination toward backing down and waited for the Trump people to come to them. When they finally agreed to negotiate, Trump was promising to lower the tariffs before they even met. And immediately he agreed to lower the tariff to 30%. It was nothing but a big bluff. And Xi called him on it.
Still with Trump‘s tariffs where they are, Walmart is threatening that they have to raise their prices which is going to impact working class people all over America. Trump‘s been saying from the beginning, the tariffs impact other countries, not consumers or American businesses. Now they’re saying that Walmart has agreed to eat the tariffs and not charge people. The fact that a major retailer has to eat the tariffs proves that Trump was wrong about tariffs all along for anybody who doubted that.

Your ‘opinion’ doesn’t change the content or overall message contained in that video, in that those migrants were Albanian drug-dealers who had broken out of an immigration detention centre - keep attacking me and not the argument/ad-homming, and you’ll be talking to the hand.

You ain’t gonna see that video in any of the Leftist outlets, are ya?

Everybody knows thisv but you, troll!

OK, this is the part that I’m not too sure about. When someone is bluffing and you call them on it, you don’t back down from your previous raises. If he truly called him on it, you’d be dealing with pretty high tariffs right now. They both were playing chicken, and they both survived because they both swerved.

The bluffing I’m talking about is giving the appearance that he wouldn’t swerve from increasing on every increase China made. At least regarding tariffs.

But there are other things having to do with Russia and the Ukraine. But I ain’t saying anything because it’s go time.
