This doesn’t make sense to me. Business is Business, and no matter who controls the wealth, one side will not be happy.
It makes no sense to me how anyone can be happy with the current direction of the country, but clearly many do and continue to vote for the status quo, and will villainize anyone proposing any real change, like RFK jr

I was talking business and wealth
Yes, America needs real change, but the president has little control over that if congress is not willing to approve his proposals
Just what proposals are you talking about, the current president was elected to protect the status quo
He is essentially this guy from Hunger Games

It’s what every president does, they can only do what congress allows, just ask Trump.
Dennis, the status quo is congress, you should already know that.
That is not the case this time
Nixon, Carter, Reagan, Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Trump were all elected on a Washington/Congress is broken and I can fix it platform. In 2020 biden was brought in to restore the status quo.

Those presidents didn’t do anything congress didn’t approve, it is impossible for a president to break the status quo, which is Congress, they need Congress for approval for anything they do.
once again Dennis, the status quo is congress, you should already know that.
You are acting as if the president has power. Congress has to approve it first and the Supreme Court can still overturn it. Ask Joe Biden about that with his loan forgiveness plan.
As a matter of fact, Abortion was overturned solely by the supreme court.
The essence of democracy.

The Supreme Court sides with the Biden administration in a fight over immigration
The U.S. Supreme Court handed President Biden’s administration a victory in a long-running fight about how to enforce the nation’s immigration laws.
The case concerned the Biden administration’s attempt to set guidelines for whom immigration authorities can target for arrest and deportation. Texas and Louisiana sued to block the guidelines, arguing that they were preventing immigration authorities from doing their jobs.
The Supreme Court held by a vote of 8-1 that the states lacked standing to challenge the guidelines in the first place.

As a result of Joe Biden’s actions, this crisis has gotten worse, and now he wants cities to deal with it, some of the crisis can also be attributed to Democratic Sanctity City policies.
I would suggest using those 100’s of millions of dollars to send these migrants back to their home countries, and give them a step-by-step guide on how to apply for whatever it is they seek from America.
Federal officials tell New York City to improve its handling of migrant crisis, raise questions about local response
The Biden administration this week urged New York to provide better information to migrants about the immigration process and to expedite their departure from city shelters, issuing recommendations that seemed to question the effectiveness of a local effort to house tens of thousands of newcomers.
Erin Heeter, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security, said the recommendations were issued by a team DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas had assigned to examine New York City’s network of over 200 hotels and other makeshift shelters that are currently housing nearly 60,000 migrants.

How Jordan Peterson became a Professional VICTIM and the BIGGEST Conservative HYPOCRITE
Jordan Peterson has constantly railed against the left’s ‘victim mentality’ believing it to be one of the main scourges on society which can have disastrous consequences.
However, JP LOVES to paint himself as a victim. Recently, he was told to undergo a social media training class from the Ontario College of Psychologists because of his embarrassing use of social media, only for him to tell everyone he was being persecuted and his freedom of speech was being taken away because he had criticised the Canadian Government.
This is nothing new to Petey boy, who actually became famous for playing the victim in mischaracterising Canadian bill C-16 believing it would destroy free speech and land him in jail - where he said he would go on hunger strike. Obviously none of these things happened. and it was Peterson once again playing the victim.
Ontario court rules against Jordan Peterson, upholds social media training order
Court released decision Wednesday, Peterson says he will take the training and broadcast it
CBC News · Posted: Aug 23, 2023 5:00 AM EDT
An Ontario court ruled against psychologist and media personality Jordan Peterson Wednesday, and upheld a regulatory body’s order that he take social media training in the wake of complaints about his controversial online posts and statements.
Last November, Peterson, a professor emeritus with the University of Toronto psychology department who is also an author and media commentator, was ordered by the College of Psychologists of Ontario to undergo a coaching program on professionalism in public statements.
That followed numerous complaints to the governing body of Ontario psychologists, of which Peterson is a member, regarding his online commentary directed at politicians, a plus-sized model, and transgender actor Elliot Page, among other issues. You can read more about those social media posts here.
The college’s complaints committee concluded his controversial public statements could amount to professional misconduct and ordered Peterson to pay for a media coaching program — noting failure to comply could mean the loss of his licence to practice psychology in the province.
Peterson filed for a judicial review, arguing his political commentary is not under the college’s purview.
Three Ontario Divisional Court judges unanimously dismissed Peterson’s application, ruling that the college’s decision falls within its mandate to regulate the profession in the public interest and does not affect his freedom of expression.
"The order is not disciplinary and does not prevent Dr. Peterson from expressing himself on controversial topics; it has a minimal impact on his right to freedom of expression," the decision written by Justice Paul Schabas reads, in part. You can read the entire decision at the bottom of this story.
Peterson had said his statements were not made in his capacity as a clinical psychologist, but instead were “off-duty opinions” — an argument the court rejected.
"Dr. Peterson sees himself functioning as a clinical psychologist ‘in the broad public space’ where he claims to be helping ‘millions of people,"’ Schabas wrote.
"Peterson cannot have it both ways: he cannot speak as a member of a regulated profession without taking responsibility for the risk of harm that flows from him speaking in that trusted capacity."

Elon Musk bans several prominent journalists from Twitter, calling into question his commitment to free speech.
Twitter on Thursday evening banned the accounts of several high-profile journalists from the nation’s top news organizations, marking a significant attempt by new owner and self-described free speech absolutist Elon Musk to wield his unilateral authority over the platform to censor the press.
The accounts belonging to CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, The New York Times’ Ryan Mac, The Washington Post’s Drew Harwell and other journalists who have covered Musk aggressively in recent weeks were all abruptly permanently suspended. The account of progressive independent journalist Aaron Rupar was also banned.
Neither Musk nor Twitter responded to CNN’s request for comment and the platform did not formally state why the journalists were exiled from the platform.

If he is guilty and the sentence in your opinion is just, then why riot leader Ray Epps is not facing a 22 year jail sentence?
We are ( or at least were) a free country, we have the right ( or did) to protest our government
The US does not ( or did not ) have political prisoners
All this has changed
You are 100% right, but also anyone who breaks the law in doing so should face criminal charges and that goes for any protest.
The proud boys are not a political organization
Millennials are often called the “lost” generation. So it is refreshing to find one who gets it and calls out the bullsh-t
