The Trump Presidency : Year V
Trump and Marco Rubio threw South African Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool out of the U.S., declaring him persona non grata after he gave a lecture claiming Trump is a white supremacist leader, and is a supporter for Hamas. And of course Trump has taken action against South Africa in regards to their genocidal behavior towards white farmers in that country.

Well that's handy, because I didn't fucking ask you. I worked in shipping for years and have boxed up more packages than your average person will in a lifetime, so you can jam your commentary. It was one of those "I'm running out the door" and my wife decided to tack on a favor while I was grabbing my keys and I told her they wouldn't take it like that, as I said in the first place. If you can't read, I don't know what to tell you. I have pretty thick skin, but if you're gonna take swings at my wife, I'm gonna swing back.

I hate to see incivility to members in SIGforum.

Incivility breeds incivility.

There is an old adage about, “If you can’t say something nice, …,” that if followed would eliminate a lot of the … tensions we see among members here.

I believe that most of us are like me and even if we see something that makes us scratch our heads in wonderment about something that’s said, we don’t say anything. I’ve been guilty of failing to follow that advice on occasion, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know better and usually do the right thing which is to ignore the things that have no effect on me personally.

The point is that you blamed your fuck up on the Post Office. You need to do a better job of reading because nowhere did I insult your wife. And you can fuck off as well.

So we both agree it was unreasonable on her part to expect them to tape it up, then. Glad we're on the same page there. You're being far more insistent on the matter than I was. I didn't blame anyone for shit, I merely commented on the attitude of the guy behind the counter.

Do you feel better now? Can we move on from shitting up the thread? Razz

Yes, the tiff was initiated by Ogie, and he knows I know this, and he also knows that he should cool it, but it takes two to tango. The forum provides a tool for reporting posts. The proper way to handle this, if one is truly concerned about avoiding cluttering a thread, is with that tool.

Now, that's the end of it.

All members who choose to participate in this thread should take a moment and review the title of it, and they should make an effort to avoid straying too far or too long from the subject. The Trump threads are monsters, ending up in hundreds and hundreds of pages. Keep this in mind when you post in this thread.

Dem Strategist James Carville’s Theory that President Trump’s Support Would “Crater” in 30 Days Blows Up in His Face As Support is Now Even Higher

I cannot see how anyone would expect PDJT's support to "crater" when he's about to cause peace to break out in the Ukraine, and is taking steps that will fix our economy long-term.

I think Carville doesn't really believe the sewage that spews out of his own mouth; he just compulsively needs to be the center of attention, and gets that be trolling.

Carville's not wrong "again"... "again" would imply that he was correct at some point.

I would like to apologize to anyone I have *not* offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.

Carville reminds me of a high school buddy who got lucky on Prom night with a mutually-drunk cheerleader. He walked around for the next few weeks with a Hugh Hefner look and attitude.

I finally told him to save up for a bottle of Jack Daniels to take on his honeymoon and he might get lucky for the second time in his life!

He's like Karl Rove, but more obnoxious. They helped their candidates win 33 and 25 years ago and think everybody should hang with bated breath on their every word since. And they think it justified, since the propaganda news channels do just that.

This auto pen thing may blow up, I hope.

FTA:
The Biden Autopen scandal is growing by the day.

A second Biden Autopen has been discovered by the Oversight Project.

The Oversight Project discovered there was a second frequently used autopen signature for Joe Biden’s pardons and commutations.

Autopen A and Autopen B have slight differences in the signatures.

WATCH:

SECOND AUTOPEN DISCOVERED

We have found that there was a second frequently used autopen signature for President Biden on pardons and commutations. https://t.co/ociYTfdTkp pic.twitter.com/EeT4Tz9Gb0

— Oversight Project (@OversightPR) March 13, 2025

Analysis by the Oversight Project reveals out of 51 clemency warrants issued by Biden: 16 were signed with Autopen A, 16 were signed with Autopen B and 19 appear to be wet signatures.

Per the Oversight Project:

The Biden White House issued 51 clemency warrants in 4 years. 4,245 people received clemency during the Biden Administration.

This includes 37 of the most brutal murderers on federal death row, a person who murdered two FBI agents, people who provided military support to Iran, Dr. Fauci, General Milley, the J6 Committee, members of the Biden family, and hundreds of drug dealers. Every warrant in this group was signed with an autopen...

Terror is now on the other foot!

“Workers at the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) are said to be completely 'paralyzed' in the middle of tax season as chaos reigns supreme following the arrival of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

The tax-collecting agency that has long been a target for Republicans, is planning to eliminate 20% to 25% of its workforce by May 15, according to a person briefed on the agency's plans.

The agency has been thrown into turmoil with inside sources saying the future of America's tax collection itself is teetering on the edge of collapse.

The IRS had about 100,000 workers when Trump took office, meaning up to 25,000 are set to lose their jobs.

The 20% to 25% target includes the roughly 5,000 IRS employees who took a buyout last month and potentially 7,000 probationary workers who were fired, though court rulings could lead to the reinstatement of probationary staff, the person said. …”
