Trump: If we don't get what we want, one way or the other... I will shut down the government ... So I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down. I'm not going to blame you for it. Verified account @realdonaldtrump The Democrats now own the shutdown! I was reading that Trump's staff cannot get him to pay attention to security breifings but he absolutely will not miss Fox News or talk radio. I don't know if thats true but its a scary thought that he governs by listening to Rush Limbaugh then going and doing whatever bullshit Limbaugh is droning on about.

No one wants to hear the nonsensical ravings of a loud-mouthed malcontent!

Cutting benefits and services would be bad. i.e. Don't lower quality of care. Cutting Social Security is a big no-no. What is Trump thinking? That alone could cost him re-election. However, I think it's important to maintain that costs should be cut (regardless of who you support politically). And the net effect of cutting costs would be, you guessed it, a lower Medicare budget. As the article mentioned, Obama tried pretty much the same cost cutting plan with Medicare (and failed, no doubt thanks to Congress). Canada negotiates lower drug prices with big pharma. Obviously, cutting cost is good in places where there's national healthcare, so why not here... don't allow big pharma to charge whatever the hell they want and over-inflate prices. I've gone over why cost controls are needed in healthcare (due to inelastic demand and peoples' lives > $'s) in the past and it's a topic all on its own, so I won't rehash it. Bernie Sanders has a sneaky idea... instead of cutting drug prices in the U.S. (which can't be done apparently... again, probably Congress having sold out to big pharma), allow Americans to buy their prescription drugs directly from Canada. www.thenation.com/article/why-are-canadas-prescription-drugs-so-much-cheaper-than-ours/

Conservative anti-feminist Journalist and Youtuber Sydney Watson (and friend/colleague) detained & questioned by the FBI, because Comedy Central afraid for their safety. Her friend/colleague is former IDF (now a Journalist also). There's a photo online of him holding a gun! So naturally Comedy Central people were frightened out of their minds, after doing an interview and redacting the shit out of it to misrepresent him. It sounds as though our border protection sent the guy back to Australia, so maybe he was some sort of legitimate threat (even though Sydney says not at all). idk

Oh no I don't think the government should be doing that. However you mentioned Civil War. My point is Civil War over .6% of the population is silly but if you live in Wisconsin and you voted Democrat the Republicans there are permanently changing what two political offices can do since they lost control. You voted us out? Fine, we will destroy the office we lost. Fuck your vote. I think that is a far more valid reason to go to war then fucking pronouns. Personally, I think both parties are corrupt and backstabbing. Just look at what the DNC and Hillary did, conspired behind closed doors to shut out Bernie. I don't think Civil war is a good idea. I'm not condoning it all. What I'm saying is, in the current political climate, people are seething with hate and division in the country has never been worse. It wouldn't take as much as you think. Many people would be much more opposed to compelled speech or revocation of the freedom of speech than you think, and might even use that as justification for war. Of course, that's just one example. I don't think I said or meant to imply that it's the one and only reason people would go to war. But people are more likely to fight over issues that affect their daily lives, things that affect their personal freedoms or economic well-being. If there was a major economic collapse, i could see the country easily plunging into Civil war, with all of the hate already present.

On the subject of China, I think the great firewall is awful in that it censors their citizens. However can you blame china for wanting their own companies and not having to rely on Google/Facebook/etc? There Chinese companies rule and the money stays in their country instead of flowing here.

The great firewall isn't even the half of it. China also has a social credit system. It's similar to our credit scoring system in the U.S., except that it's based on pretty much everything a person does (not limited to financial decisions), including seemingly trivial habits and routines. It's very much like the movie 1984. If a person's social credit score is too low, their ability to travel (even within China) can be restricted. Crazy sh!t.

Remember because a staff member ate pizza once at a pizza shop in DC this proves that Hilary and Bill were molesting children in the basement of the pizza shop even tho it has no basement.
Also no chance Trump was banging girls with Epstein, no chance at all:

Think back to your late teens/early twenties and recall how many (probably) 16-17 year old girls were flirtatious with you. I worked at the Best Buy return counter in the early 90's and that was the case there, with several of the female employees being under 18. Thankfully, I've always been a nerd and I knew it was illegal, so my fears countered any temptations.
Anyway, one could imagine how much worse it is for younger rich & powerful men who are alpha male - fearless and cocky, so to speak. Of course, the law is the law. Let the cards fall where they may, even if some of your favorite politicians get taken out.
Another unusual aspect of this story is that Epstein isn't being held in maximum security prison. I forget which Youtuber it was who mentioned this, but he pointed out how this makes no sense. Because Epstein could potentially take down many rich & powerful men, who might target him for assassination (and that would be much easier when he's not being held in a max security facility).

Yawn. He mentions mental health over and over. Since I worked in that industry for 10 years I can speak to what its like. Services were constantly being cut. When the state budget came out we always had to do more with less, the jobs themselves were all very low pay besides 2 or 3 head honchos. Hes talking about of both sides of his head. The downward trend of mental health funding is going to continue because the "small government" people always aim their sites on the mental health industry because those are people who exist on the very fringe of society and have no voice.

I subbed to that guy forever ago but haven't watched one of his videos in a while. One thing he mentioned is Antifa, a few years ago I never heard of these people. I see they are primarily in Portland and I remember people dressed exactly like them in the 1990s but the media just called them anarchists.
Its rather bizarre how the media talks about them all the sudden now. Like they appeared out of nowhere.
Its funny to me that since I am left of center and was a Sanders supporter in 2016 somehow Antifa is "my people". I have never read any Antifa literature. I don't know a single member. If you broke into my house and put a shotgun to my head I couldn't tell you a single fact about them but somehow I "support Antifa". Really strange.

Yeah, I've watched several of his vids recently. Tim mentioned in a couple of recent vids that he is left of center, but he calls out BS regardless if it's coming from the left or right.
Antifa are radical leftists, openly/in broad daylight commit violent acts against the elderly, etc. I'm not sure why you'd think that Tim would place you in that camp.
Edit: In the "Civil War 2" video I linked earlier, it explains how not everyone has to join in or be radicalized for another Civil War to occur. It could be something like 10% of population or less. So, the typical/average person, like you or I could be against a Civil War. But even if a small % of population became polarized enough and the situation were dire (like an economic collapse), there's not much we could do to stop a Civil War.

I don't mean Tim specifically I mean mostly right leaning youtubers and media. Like I said I never even heard of Antifa till a couple of years ago. Someone posted some videos of "antifa riots" and it was people in France rioting over low wages and had nothing to do with American politics lol. Its weird how they seem to come out of nowhere into the national conversation. There are a lot of people out there with all different kinds of idea but the "left wing" stuff I have looked at I don't see anyone being like yeah guys lets go put some skimasks on and go support antifa. However the right wingers talk about them constantly.

However the right wingers talk about them constantly. Yeah, it's a problem. Although, it's a problem on both sides. It's similar to how left wingers talk about radical right lone wolf mass shooters constantly. Fear mongering (in the media and social media) is good for ratings/viewer counts. Media coverage of the radicals (both left and right) is overblown. Obviously, I agree that these incidents are horrible as any sane person would. However, statistically, death by mass shooting or radical terrorism is at or near the bottom the list of leading causes of death, well below 1% of total deaths... far less than even deaths by drug overdose or drug related accidents, which the left media would rather sweep under the rug. Of course, gun control is a hot button issue for the left leaning media, so they have strong political incentive to cover shooting deaths more than other more impactful things (more impactful in terms of number people actually effected). I don't think that the fear mongering is limited to mass shootings, that's just been the biggest one lately. One conspiracy theory I think could have some credence is that fear mongering is used by media & govt to distract the masses from issues that affect them more directly and/or in much greater frequency (such as, the massive wealth transfer from middle class to upper class that's been going on since the 70's).

Here's an informative video about China (from DW, a German news source). This just goes to show that the Communist Chinese govt hasn't changed a bit since their invasion and takeover of Tibet.
