I have no idea what an XCOM is. Is it something the kids are into these days?

You are missing out!

I occasionally wonder if my preconceived notions about crypto bros are accurate. But this guy is really putting my mind at ease on that point.

Look, you would compromise your principles on some things for some % of your net worth, as would most people. That means that there is no such thing as principles and that you're a hypocrite. I am very smart.

The main people in charge were Trump and Jared Kushner. It worked about as well as you’d expect.

This isn't true. The Abraham Accords went very well, and were progressing to expand to most of the rest of Middle East not under Iran's influence until they got derailed by the Hamas 10/7 pogrom.

it's endless, but here's one. just did a quick search for ya

the Act is clearly aimed at financial institutions. it would extend the same KYC and BSA rules as every other institution that denominates their accounts in traditional currencies would have to abide by.

crypto enthusiasts want it both ways with the blessing of legitimized currency/asset status for ETFs and other financial products, but zero accountability or traceability that standard currencies bear. per usual the industry cries wolf and swears they're being criminalized when any form of regulation comes down.

how much would BTC price decline if its use for money laundering and black market activities were stamped out?

You’re gonna get worked by the regulations

Would you vote for a different GOP candidate over Biden?

why do people ask this stupid question. is it because maga is a cult and they all bootlick for trump and only trump? so they think everyone thinks this way? the president is head of an administration.

republican policies are awful, i wouldn't vote for any of them ever.

Presidents almost always look better in hindsight, after people forget how bad they were. That was true even for Richard Nixon, who became a "respected elder statesman" 10 years or so after he resigned in shame. Unless Biden is reelected and then screws up in some incredibly major way, I'm sure he will be retroactively more popular than he is now as well.

I'm not a Biden supporter or even a Democrat, but I would choose a random native-born

biden has probably had the best presidential term in most of our lifetimes. the current dems are just the absolute WOAT at marketing/messaging.


Back to back planes you board with 2% chance of losing an engine do, in fact, lose an engine. You miraculously survive the first but die in the second.

"That's XCOM, baby!"


Biden is done here. He's not going to be the candidate in November.

I had zero idea of what an XCOM was before reading this post, and I think I have even less of an idea after.

Does it involve crypto and lols? Those are really the things I'm looking for here.

Well that’s Kushner your telling me Hunter hasn’t received a dime from China and what was that for ? His expertise on coke and hookers

Kushner's only important expertise was bagging a woman who the President would love to f---, er date, if he could get away with it.

No marketing or messaging can fix Biden’s decline

Tom Brady was the GOAT but at some point you realize you can’t do the job anymore one of the most demanding jobs

The only person that f…ed a family member was Hunter a week after her husband died .

We're special and we're the future. Please let us do whatever we want.

Didace here arguing for Levi's needing to file transaction reports, including name, address and SIN of sender and recipient any time someone spends cash out of their jean pocket. If Levi's fails to do so, it's a felony.

yup, when i think of biden i'm instantly reminded of tom brady...

I don't think its fair to say that Democrats have encouraged political violence. Not sure what riots you are talking about that Dems supported. George Floyd? Mass majority of the protests were peaceful and there is evidence that many instances of violence were instigated by right wingers intending to incite violence. Supreme court intimidation? Thats a new one to me, but I personally think this current group of justices is incredibly c

What deluded fantasy clown world do you live in? You literally sound like a CNN AI generated talking point. This is the most extreme case of projection I've ever seen. Your party (and all the globalist NGO think tanks funding them) are literally DOING ALL THESE THINGS. MAGA is doing none of these things and is the only thing standing in the way of a complete communist technocratic tyranny.
The Supreme Court is corrupt and trying to erode freedom??!! Only the liberal ones!!!!

They should rename this forum 2+2=5
Orwell and Huxley were spot on.


Explain how everyone in center/right media knew Biden was in the midst of a complete cognitive melt down 2 years ago, but then it took the debate a couple weeks ago for libtards to see it? Many in center/right media also knew that Biden would never be the 2024 nominee due to his incompetence and mental decline. We've been talking about Newsom stepping in since 2021.

If you really haven’t heard about the Supreme Court justices intimidation or dem politicians encouraging their voters to confront repub politicians in public you need to expand where you get your news from.

Yes, I was talking about the blm riots. I agree most of their get together were peaceful but that shouldn’t mean we should dismiss the violent ones. That would be like saying you think Ted kacynski is a nice guy because most of the time he was peacefully living in the forest by himself and we shouldn’t judge him because he occasionally murdered and maimed people.

In these riots people died, got hurt, had their livelihood taken, had their sense of safety taken and a lot of downtowns still haven’t recovered from the devastation. The whole time there were dem politicians advocating for the violence by saying they’d pitch in for bail money and they would say things in the media that incited that violence.

Republicans care for freedom that they like , not freedom for the stuff they don’t like .
But strangely many thinks republicans care for real freedom shrug.
I guess it’s the same thing about law and order and yet look who they have as representative .
Trump is obviously the best representative for integrity right ?

Who are the "Republicans" you're referring to? The politicians? And if so, Rinos or MAGA?
I'm not a Republican but I'm Christian so I vote strictly on moral grounds. It's safe to say most Repub voters also vote based on morality. Freedom to a Christian is not the same as it is to a secular humanist/atheist.


by housenuts P

Both parties did

I don't believe any Democrats have gone to jail for voting fraud since 2020. I could have missed something. We are up to like 10 Republicans though.


I truly wonder if Trump indefinitely imprisons hundreds of violent ANTIFA and liberal journalists without trial like the DOJ did Jan 6thers, the libtards might scream foul but I doubt it.

You do realize these extremist right wing sects have web pages and manifestos and are very public, right? This isn't a conspiracy, they are happy to tell you exactly what they think and what they are doing.

I highly recommend getting some help, because your perception of reality is fundamentally broken

Quick search. Here's one. I'm sure there's many on both sides.

An argument could be made that transparency is better than secrecy.

Not saying I agree with their extreme right views, mostly terrible, but I prefer to know what people are thinking rather than them working in the shadows.
