    I don't know why you think most of those 5% are on government assistance. Most people have health insurance.

    The Trump Card...

    Of course you can blame China for it. This isn't a case of pharmaceutical companies shifting production of prescription Fentanyl to China to save money. It's a case of fentanyl being produced with ever-so slight molecular variations to make it technically not fentanyl, and then exporting it like...

    The Trump Card...

    THe US can soooo get along just fine without China as a trade partner. We did for decades. If Trump were to cut China off like a switch, yeah, it would be difficult for a lot of Americans, but only in the short term. WIthin months or a handful of years, manufacturing would be reestablished or...

    The Fake News Depot

    FAKE NEWS reporte many many times is still FAKE NEWS. According to the US Department of the Treasury, who I personally believe has a firmer grasp of the facts than the MSM, individual income tax collections for FY 2018 totaled $1.7 trillion. That's up $14 billion from fiscal 2017, and an...

    China is killing tens of thousands of Americans every year, intentionally. What would you have the Commander In Chief do about it?

    Wayne was released from the hospital yesterday afternoon, and is home and doing well. I managed to catch him with a text yesterday just half an hour after he got home. And this morning he reports all is going according to plan. ❤️

    (language warning) This is how FAKE NEWS starts <giggle> When you see all the Memes, so many Memes, you know how they started. But as Don Jr said, "No, Chris is not the N-word to Italians. It just means you're the dumb brother."

    Advice on footwear for ladies?

    They're pretty comfortable. Totally impractical during the winter, but I wear 'em anyway. They're usually leather, but sometimes canvas. They have non-marking rubber soles that are designed to be very grippy on a wet boat deck. Indispensable on a sailboat, because you really don't want to slip...

    Advice on footwear for ladies?

    I wear boat shoes year round, but I do carry steel toed boots for those rare occasions when required.

    Deportee dies....

    So illegal aliens with two separate deportation orders should be imprisoned instead of deported? Do we just keep them in prison for life, then?

    Not yet. I don't want to call or text him just yet. Figured I'd give him a few days. I don't have the numbers for his wife or kids.

    Of course there is. I know that because I have an Assault #2 Pencil. I also have an Assault Milkshake, an Assault Shoe, and an Assault Sense of Humor.

    Yeah, it's the same silly green turtle as the avatar I use here on EO. When I'm there I don't pay that much attention to the other Sprinters that are there.

    I'm surprised the front turtle license plate and satellite dish didn't give me away. I spent several days at the beautiful and luxurious Knights Inn, where the TV is from the 80s and I think the Wi-Fi is, too, likely running off a 300 baud modem. Every time someone in the complex used a...

    Wayne is one of the good ones. And I don't mean just as a mechanic, but as a person, husband, and father. Wayne (and his son, Tyler, who obviously did most of the work) replaced the rear end on my Sprinter over the weekend, finishing it up yesterday (a Sunday). Had it towed down from Michigan...

    That's just one article. There's a bunch of them out there, plus Twitter comments from those who lost their accounts. Having an account removed for "violating the terms of service" is a breathtakingly large blanket. Thaaaat's convenient. Notice how no one is ever told specifically, exactly...
