Is that an article about the red states finally thanking the blue states for the financial subsidies they constantly receive?

no, nor is it one where blue states should be thanking red states for the big federal income tax subsidy that blue state residents get ( deduction for state and local taxes) that red state residents don’t get.
i keep telling you that’s part of the math, you keep hiding under your bed when i bring it up.
have a good day sir.

It is a snarky response. If you think my post are "dead horses", then don't comment. Or do you have such little self control you can't help yourself. Unless of course you are just trying to be a dic k.

Another one of Jim’s outrage emails
Imagine that..
But you’ll never see Jim outraged when
SAN ANTONIO PD
COP OPENS FIRE ON TEEN AT MICKEY D'S
Or when a state trooper 1st on the sight in Uvalde who didn’t go in.
, she can be heard on body camera footage talking to fellow officers when someone asks if she had children at the school that day.
"If my son had been in there, I would not have been outside," she said. "I promise you that.
Iam guess Jim doesn’t get those stories in his outrage inbox

investigate it. if the cops did anything wrong, punish them.
is that going too fast for you? Let me know if that’s going too fast for you.
The cops i was referring to, charged towards gunfire to save other people’s children. thats who that flag was obviously intended for, and if you’re too stupid to see that, that’s your problem. And if honoring them is offensive to you, well, you picked the right political party. stay there.
It’s offensive to honor heroes, as long a slandering them helps democrats win elections. Great message to kids wayne, all cops are responsible for what the bad ones do, and we can’t celebrate what the heroes do. Why do democrats despise common sense?
Time for two countries.

The country you want is one where police officers stand together, with strong unions and qualified immunity so they can protect the lawbreakers among them?
It’s nothing new and has been accepted for years.
Ask the police chief in your locale about his management issues with bad apples. You complain about teachers unions, they pale in comparison to the power of police.

Was just going to respond with that, thank you sir.
Pete, the question stands, is that going too fast for you?
The country I'd like (but I'm not so naive to think it's realistic) is one where bad cops get investigated, but also one where heroic cops who display stupefying bravery, are celebrated.
You take issue with that vision?
You're having a very, very rough couple of days here Pete. Not presenting yourself well at all, you're coming totally un-glued. It's not necessary, the left is positioned to do a lot better than what I was expecting...

I can see how you’re confused
Jim’s more outraged over a stoping a police flag as are you?
Then police kill kid in McDonald’s
Or another saving her own skin by not going in cuz here child wasn’t there
But already know jims thinks these outrages he post are equal
To my examples
He and you use investigators as excuses so you don’t take a position

Another cult member response
Jim your upset a parent exercised their rights to be informed and involved in their childrens school
You just can man up and accept what they did because you don’t like it..
Go ban some more books. That didn’t bother you but stoping a police flag running across a field get your patriot anger flowing

Yea, you’re feeding on what they’re putting in your brain
https://www.facebook.com/PennLive/vi...3241297802694/
Senators Ben Ray Luján & Chris Van Hollen both had strokes in the past year
Chuck Grassley will be 95 YEARS OLD by the end of his next term
Herschel Walker has unmistakable signs of CTE
Has anyone asked them for their medical records yet or we exclusively #^&#^&#^&#^&ting on Fetterman?
John Fetterman answered questions from voters live for almost an hour at an event that Mehmet Oz skipped.
When Mehmet was confronted about not showing up, he literally said "I don't give a #^&#^&#^&#^&."
What do you want, he’s from Joisey….

I think Grassley needs to go, but he (and Walker) can converse without relying on a computer telling them what to say. Fetterman can't engage in small talk, without staring at a computer. Why would we trust that he's saying his words, and not simply repeating what some staffer types onto his laptop?
You guys will say ANYTHING when it comes to protecting your side.

So once they get elected , if they have a stroke they are all set?
Jim no one picks when they get a stroke .
But it’s telling you’d support Trump who clearly tried to steal the election and sat on his hands for what 3 hrs on Jan 6th is more fit for office then a guy who had a mild stroke and is recovering

wayne i am glad “he is recovering.”. and i agree he “is recovering.”
but until he is recovered ( past tense), he has no business in the US Senate.
He can’t engage in small talk. How can he understand super complicated problems?

You’re wrong
Listen to the other interviews
We have 2 sitting members or Congress that had strokes in this past year- both are back working without issue . This whole concern and the trumped up stories are a GOP attempt to cause concern that it not real. I will vote for an American anyday over someone w/ ties to Turkey

this guy, right now, shouldn’t be running. if small
talk is a stretch. he needs to wait until he’s more recovered.
i dont like walker either. but i don’t see an impairment there, he’s just a terrible candidate
lots of accusations. when democrats accuse every republican of every crime, at some point you lose credibility
like the boy who cried wolf. After kavanaugh im not interested in accusations
im not accusing fettarmen of being impaired. that cannot be debated anymore.

Jim walker pulled out a fake police badge claiming he’s tough on crime
Crimes just another red herring like Biden’s responsible for the price of Gas .
Honesty isn’t a GOP strong suit
And what’s funny all those riots you and Republicans always complain about and love to compare them with Jan 6th Yet they happened while Republicans held office.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...es-tuberville/
Republicans will try to scare you with paranoia about crime — specifically, violent crime committed by dark-skinned people.
Right on schedule comes Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), a former football coach, declaring at a Donald Trump rally in Nevada over the weekend that Democrats want reparations for descendants of enslaved people “because they think the people who do the crime are owed that.” To this false epiphany he added an epithet: “Bulls---!”
Though the MAGA crowd is not one to let facts get in the way of a good attack, let’s pause the fearmongering for a moment to consider a few relevant truths:
Violent crime is not soaring. In fact, it might be declining.
Most violent crime is committed by White people.
Violent crime is generally worse in Republican-run states.

2020, per capita murder rates were 40 percent higher in states won by Trump than in those won by Joe Biden, and that eight of the 10 states with the highest murder rates in 2020 voted for the Republican presidential nominee in every election in this century.

Louisiana has the highest murder rate. Trump won Louisiana.
But the murders are driven by New Orleans. Guess who won New Orleans in 2020?
I think Alabama had the second highest murder rates. Driven by Birmingham. Guess who won Birmingham?
give us a break wayne. everyone knows crime is a winning issue for the gop. No politician would be dumb enough to blame the gop for the murder rate in Louisiana.

I see a pattern here…. 7 states with highest murder rates are pro life. 7 of 8 states with lowest murder rates are wait for it ….. pro choice.
