cops rather weak there.

Cruz will bash Beto on the one tiny semi-insider trading he did for $7100. Cruz will be here until 2030 if he wins, since 2024 is POTUS straight ticket. Hell, he's only 47 so we might have him until 2042 (age 71) if he wins 2030, 2036 is POTUS again but TX might be light blue by then.

Jones criticizes Q and boom! he's gone. Witness the power of Q.

you know a super longshot, whom most of you never heard of, is Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings (D). The man talks and looks Presidential, he's not far left and won't scare away the moderates or independents. The man is righteous.

a Youtube search for Alex Jones turns up a lot of material. Maybe his channel is gone but lots of interviews remain.

me neither https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KpPKxTMmrY

ever watch the old Jay walking segment with Jay Leno? People can't name anything - current vp, who the US colonies fought for independence. Anything really, but know the American Idol judges. This is a stupid ignorant country, very easily exploited. People are lazy and getting worse.

the Obamas need to make an appearance on this, best in Houston and Dallas to energize the black vote since it appears Beto is only down 100k-200k votes at the moment.

Q is competition for Jones/Infowars so naturally he's going to downplay it.

HRC #2 . I'd rather run Lebron James, take OH and FL easy and CA is in the bag.

how does he monetize Infowars? Will losing FB and others hurt the $?

showing money isn't everything

QAnon, Roseanne, Diamond & Silk, Alex Jones, Hannity, Tucker Carlson -- these are the new intellectuals of the country. btw, Tigerdroppings is a very low level read, although better than TexAgs. Both are using 1998 BBS software. second btw -- It's not about the Boomers anymore, all age crazy bat shit. .Laziness and social media converge to form the new hellhole. I think Q is the same as Ice Bucket Challenge, will disappear in 12 months

good post. Stupid people think the powerless starving people will somehow acquire weapons and overthrow the secret police and government thugs. No, we need to bomb the asshole leaders, kill them in their sleep and the regime will crumble from the top down.

i believe you are a conservative/Trumper so that's fine, your opinion matches your profile. When there is social turmoil, the bottom 99% are suffering, the 1% become even more dictatorial as social unrest grows. They become more assholish with sanctions. I think we will see the Iranian regime become even more brutal in the next 12 months, more hangings, more imprisonment, more police shooting people in the streets.

here is your chance to condemn yet another Trump policy. The sanctions are causing quite a lot of suffering on the Iranian people while the regime leaders are barely touched. I personally don't support sanctions in a general sense because of the inhumanity and ineffectiveness. What says Surly? I am sure no one will oppose Trump on this. I really like Persian rugs but they will be prohibited. A few articles as background: https://www.politico.com/story/2018/07/02/trump-iran-sanctions-689933 Hook said an initial round of U.S. sanctions against Iran would come back into effect on Aug. 4, targeting the Iranian automotive sector as well as trade in gold and other key metals. On Nov. 4, further sanctions will snap back, including those hammering Iran’s energy sector and the Iranian central bank. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/08/here-are-iran-sanctions-returning-after-trump-leaves-nuclear-deal.html The deal between Iran and a handful of world powers, brokered in 2015 during the Obama administration, lifted a bevy of sanctions and embargoes on Iran in exchange for the country significantly shrinking the scope of its nuclear capabilities. Iran also gave international inspectors access to its facilities as part of the deal. The memo Trump signed on Tuesday triggers a 180-day countdown timer for Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to re-impose all of the sanctions on Iran that were relaxed under the deal. After passing a 90-day mark on Aug. 6, the following sanctions will snap back on Iran, according to the Treasury Department: Sanctions on Iran buying or acquiring U.S. dollars Sanctions on Iran trading gold and other precious metals Sanctions on Iran's sale, supply or trade of metals such as aluminum and steel, as well as graphite, coal and certain software for "integrating industrial processes" Sanctions on "significant" sales or purchases of Iranian rials, or the maintenance of significant funds or accounts outside the country using Iranian rials Sanctions on issuing Iranian debt Iranian auto sanctions The U.S. will also revoke certain permissions, granted to Iran under the deal, on Aug. 6. These include halting Iran's ability to export its carpets and foods into the U.S., as well as ending certain licensing-related transactions. At the end of the 180-day interval on Nov. 4, another set of sanctions will once again be clamped down on Iran: Sanctions on Iran's ports, as well as the country's shipping and shipping sectors Sanctions on buying petroleum and petrochemical products with a number of Iranian oil companies Sanctions on foreign financial institutions transacting with the Central Bank of Iran and other Iranian financial institutions Sanctions on the provision of certain financial messaging services to Iran's central bank and other Iranian financial institutions Sanctions on the provision of underwriting services, insurance, or reinsurance Sanctions on Iran's energy sector The following day, on Nov. 5, the Trump administration will disallow U.S.-owned foreign entities from being allowed to engage in certain transactions with Iran. Sanctions on certain Iranian individuals will also be re-imposed on Nov. 5.

will Trump visit Texas for an endorsement? Will the Trumpers support Cruz? Is Ted on an island?

debate it, instead of this useless fluff. 1. do you support Trump's Iran sanctions? 2. Sanctions are inhumane and ineffective. Don't be so ignorant to ignore the suffering of the Iraqi people under the sanctions regime. let's see how you respond.

most Trump haters, if not all, will favor his sanctions on Iran. I don't think there is a single person on Surly who will oppose that Trump policy, meaning they support it as a "good"

didn't work for the Iraqi people. Sanctions are always bad for the general population and is a terribly obtuse and inhumane method to conduct foreign policy.

so these phony liberals, who champion human rights, are in favor of making completely innocent powerless suffering people living under a dictatorship suffer even more in the hopes that they will magically acquire power to overthrow the powerful dictatorship? Makes sense!

what does this answer have to do with the questions of sanctions?

so 60% of the budget goes to Military and Veterans Affairs, ostensibly to fight an enemy that lives in caves and mud huts. Just to clarify, this $1.1 trillion does not include the SS system right?

do you instead favor sanctions, which historically do nothing but badly hurt ordinary people? Years of sanctions on Iraq killed babies, starved people, made thinkgs like clothes, books and everyday supplies hard to get - while Saddam enjoyed his 43 palaces. I'd rather have killed off Saddam in 2 seconds than hurt the Iraqi people for 12 years.
