Alright I call BS on this one.

I see that shite daily on I-10!! A caravan of Mexicans driving home to Mexico with one small 1985 Toyota pick up towing 3 other old pick ups loaded down with bicycles, and various junk. Lol

This 100%. It’s been going on for at least 50 years. I would like to see the size of the pile of junk those crews have drug across the border.

Pool puddy. Two part mixture that will cure under water.

Gov. Jeff Landry told state lawmakers Monday in his speech to open the 2025 legislative session, is that one wants to skin you from the ankle up and the other wants to skin you from the ear down.

Huey P Long used this exact quote.

We think that between 2027 and 2030 it's likely that the U.S. will see peak production, and after that some decline," Occidental CEO Vicki Hollub said earlier this month at an industry conference in Houston.

As someone that grew up in the late 60’s and thru the 70’s and 80’s I have seriously lost count of the number of so called experts that have spouted this exact line and yet here we are 50 years later still figuring out how to just keep finding it and pulling it from the ground. In the early 2000’s there was a website something like “life after the oil crash” devoted entirely what was supposed to have happened by now to the world when we reached peak oil supply. And again here we are 25 years after the genesis point of that apocalyptic web site still moving along. Point is you just can’t trust these experts and whatever ulterior motives or underlying politics they are beholden to. Case in point and look it up…in the 70’s the climate “experts” were espousing that we were entering another ice age and 30 years later nope global warming is the enemy now. In the end it is nothing more than fear mongering for more political power and wealth accumulation.

If you have ever been to that area of Houston you understand that this part of society does not have far to travel (at all) to be part of the ThunderDome scene you see playing out in this video. That stadium and the associated rodeo complex should have been built in far west Houston when they had the chance. I watch this and continue to understand the Degradation of society has no lower bounds.

Barron is in the background….interesting

Or you could just do your civic duty and try and get on the jury.

This. I sat on a harris county jury for over week one time and yes it was a pain and I was glad that I did it. Trust me that if the roles were reversed and anyone was the accused you would want a qualified jury pool deciding your fate. I came away from that experience fully convinced that in the US there may be hundreds if not thousands in prison that are fully innocent. The legal and justice system doesn’t work for everyone and especially if the jury pool has the intelligence of a bag of rocks.

The grift is just too easy to abandon it now
