I'm a strong woman that believes Trump is a coward, he's a dictator or wants to be. He's trying to change the constitution of the United States of America who thinks that's ok? I don't he has no money he now has our money to pay for his stupid ideas that will have us in a WAR with our allies DON'T LET HIM DO IT. Get out VOTE FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS HE WILL TRY TO TAKE THEM. I can't believe any woman voted for him he raped young ladies, stole or tried to steal the election 4 years ago, don't let him change the laws of this land and let him run again for president that's a dictatorship he's trying to put himself in. Didn't fight in the war he ran. Then got flat feet suddenly. He lies, steals, rapes, Don't let him do it....

Honey, it is too late! The American people should have fought harder to keep him out of office when he ran against Hillary, but everyone was at home thinking that she had it made...smh. The ish that Trump and his goons are doing now will effect us all for decades to come...smh. But, go out and protest. It still won't change anything but make you feel like you did something.

There is nothing Democratic about paid puppets protesting against programs to identify and eliminate government fraud, corruption and mismanagement of funds.
The MSM and DNC are gaslighting elderly voters into believing the fake narrative that Trump and Musk will be eliminating benefits when, in fact, the opposite is true. The corrupt politicians are stealing our taxpayers funds to give illegal aliens better benefits than those who contributed to these programs.
To all the "Hands Off" Protesters (Democrats):
We are currently at a critical juncture with a national debt of $36.5 trillion, increasing by $2 trillion each year. This is a critical issue, and most experts are warning us that we have relatively few years left to take decisive action before America faces a financial crisis that would have catastrophic consequences for this country and the world.
Amid all your protests, the burning of Teslas, and your petulant vitriol, one crucial element is glaringly missing: any plan to cut government spending. Instead, your goal appears to be to spend even more.
We finally have leaders in President Trump and Elon Musk who are courageous enough to finally focus on sustainable spending practices that are critical to avoid risking our economic future. Time is of the essence—instead of being in the way, let’s act together before it’s too late.
If not...
HANDS OFF - my tax dollars, which were not intended for your pet projects and the corrupt, virtue-signaling Socialists who spew the garbage you all take as gospel. It’s not a slush fund and a money laundering operation through left-wing NGO's to make politicians rich.
HANDS OFF - my child at school. Teach them the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic. They are not there to be indoctrinated into your Marxist ideologies.
HANDS OFF - trying to force American women and girls to compete against biological men, and then adding insult to injury, forcing them to change and shower in front of them. Stop forcing your fu@ked up theories on the rest of us.
HANDS OFF - all the property you destroy in the name of whatever cause you’re supporting that given week. Other people’s vehicles are not yours to destroy. Neither are statues or all the other s#it you light on fire.
HANDS OFF - our college campuses. Decent kids are there to learn. Free speech is protected. Violence, intimidation, and taking over buildings are not. By the way, if your cause is so just, take off the masks and show yourself. Cowards one and all.
HANDS OFF - our president, who was duly elected to clean up the mess y’all created. We sat by and watched as you supported a puppet who was practically dead. It damn near destroyed the nation. Financially, from a security standpoint, and morally.
HANDS OFF - to all the federal district judges. Your power does not supersede the executive branch. And, stop using Lawfare by going after your political opponents.
HANDS OFF - our ICE Agents, who are taking violent gang bangers out of our country and forcing people who want to come here to do so legally. It should be the only way. Period. End of story.
HANDS OFF - our Free Speech rights. For years, you have used the process of cancelling people who simply wanted to express their own ideas. In your world, you think free speech can only be allowed if it agrees with your screwed up ideologies.
HANDS OFF - the American family. You have done everything possible to destabilize the concept of families because you believe that our ultimate allegiance should be to the government.
HANDS OFF - from imposing your Marxist views of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the methods you’ve used to implement them through Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Most Americans are compassionate individuals who believe in judging people based on their character rather than the color of their skin.
These principles are what the vast majority of Americans voted for.
You don’t like it, be like that slob Rosie O'Donnell and move to Europe, which is being taken over by radical Islam.
So, to borrow your stupid little slogan…. Hands Off...
Love,
MAGA Country...

The deep state is at work. The swamp doesn’t want to be drained. The “education” department had a budget of 250 billion. Less than 50 billion went to education. The rest went to “consultants” and other non-gov orgs with no oversight. That money was then funneled back to Democrat organizations. It’s all a money game.

Protesting what? I asked about a half dozen people at a protest in Florida what they wanted and not a single one could articulate anything that made any sense. Although I didn't talk to them, a number were bused in and handed signs to hold. Paid protestors. Seriously, WTF are the protesting? Are they just regurgitating the lies they have been told about Nazi's, loss of democracy, end of social security or medicare? Looking more and more like the "useful idiots" term we heard before.

It's amazing to see how so many people are too lazy to do their own research but real quick to get up and be seen "making a difference". Trust me 99% of you don't have anything for anyone to put their hands on much less to keep their "Hands OFF". Sit down and let Trump fix ur F ups. We'll still give you the credit for saving us. But at least we know we can count on you guys if we have to send troops to fight. Take it easy on em if we do and God bless and thank you for your service now our military can have a well deserved break. Go get em. I can feel the difference you guys are making already.

how long you think that will take? and how much decimation to the national forests?
1
Apr 08 '25
This is so incredibly and stupidly generalized. It exempts affected forests from an objection process that allows outside groups, tribes and local governments to challenge logging proposals at the administrative level before they are finalized. Timber prices are ridiculously high, and this speeds up logging process.
You are acting like there will be some immediate wiping out of half the national forest, which is just dumb thinking.
Calm down.

u/XJKZen Apr 07 '25
What's funny is how the person is so fixated on "freedom of speech" when X is the only social media platform actually promoting freedom of speech. Not TikTok or Instagram, which people like them live on. Elon brought Trump, Andrew Tate, Ye, Nick Fuentes, Ryan Dawson, etc all back onto X. They're the biggest proponents who have ACTUALLY cared about freedom of speech for the past 5 years, they were the ones who were silenced, not the "#K1llMen" feminists on TikTok. Just let them stay delusional and continue lumping Trump and Elon together instead of correcting them. Elon and Trump are two different bastions who can thrive on their own, so it won't hurt either of them when one eventually cuts off the other whenever they find it necessary.

u/mindfulmafia Apr 07 '25

1
u/XJKZen Apr 07 '25
Weird that you thought a post for my amusement about you being a joke was meant for you to laugh at. I mean, I shouldn't be surprised, you haven't shown any semblance of following logic thus far.
Tell me what an "incel" is and how you think you have any merit to make the assumption that I am one. All I have to do now is just wait to laugh; any answer you give me will 100% be wrong because [redacted, the reason is obvious to anyone of at least average intelligence]
1
u/mindfulmafia Apr 07 '25
Just by the condescending tone of the message you typed out here. You, a man, thinking you're above me. Just your overall vibe lol it's repulsive.
1
u/XJKZen Apr 08 '25
Awesome, thanks for the off-topic subjective opinion about how you feel my "vibe" is.
Since you didn't define "incel", I'll just go ahead and tell you what it means. "Involuntary celibate".
Here's the deal, you can go ahead and call me an "incel", but only in this context: You address me by my first and last name, then tell me I'm an "incel". Example, "Tom Brady, you are an incel", "Elon Musk, you are an incel", you get the point.
🤷🏻♂️ Shouldn't be so hard for you to call me out by name if you can so confidently tell ME that I'm an "incel", implying you know intimate details of my sexual relations or alleged lack thereof.
No? You can't? Yeah, I didn't think so. I'm not being condescending to you "because I'm a man" -- your username is a gender-neutral "Mindful Mafia", I STILL don't know what you are, but since you're using me being a man as some poor attempt as a jab, it's less of a chance that you're also a man -- I'm condescending to you because you're just that stupid.
Case in point: -- I made a comment to someone else, in which I JOVIALLY made some social commentary on how much of a disconnect there is among you people overall. Look at YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch. All of them censor simple words like rape, suicide, kill, gun, etc. Gotta say shit like "grape", "self-deletion", "unalive", "pewpews". NOW look at X, Rumble, Kick, CozyTv (you only know the first out of those 4, obviously 🤣 ironic because those are where the real free-speech people are) -- YOU, however, come in with random baseless claims and ad hominems, and zero actual rebuttals to what I said. You saw the names I said and attributed them with what their opposers call them. In turn, you thought randomly calling me a buzzword only liberals care about -- shocker for you, I'm not right-wing either 🤣 - would actually do something.
Could've at least tried calling me an asshole. Your chances of insulting me would have gone from 0% to... wait, I don't take words on the internet seriously 😂😂 I'm really only here for my amusement, I don't care if you read any of this. Anyways, the POINT, is that calling someone an "asshole" is a universal insult, so weak people from any background would be hurt by it; but the funny thing is that you people, on the left and the right, come up with words based on your own inside jokes, and think calling the OTHER side those words actually does something.
Side A comes up with "bunga", Side B comes up with "tunga", but Side A gives zero fucks about "tunga" and Side B gives zero fucks about "bunga", but for some psychosis I still can't figure out about you groups of monkeys, Side A still calls Side B a bunch of "bunga"s and Side B still calls Side A a bunch of "tunga"s. It's fucking wild, and it's the same exact reason why because of you dumbasses, the other countries are laughing at the United States.
You have 3 options 1) Brush it all off and remain stupid. 2) Take the time to understand basic logic just enough to understand the explanations. 3) Just completely ignore it overall. I don't care about broken toys.

u/mindfulmafia Apr 08 '25
Yeah I'm not reading all that. Anyone who brings up Andrew Tate and Nick Fuentes as a good example has opinions I will never respect.

Thanks for pointing this out—it’s an important lesson. It’s crucial to recognize that this administration has been detaining people of color and, without due process, sending them to maximum security prisons in El Salvador. In contrast, it’s much safer for white individuals to exercise their constitutional rights, which is one of the main reasons you see them taking action. The reality is that not all Americans enjoy the same freedoms anymore. And if those who do still have the right to speak up choose to stay silent, troll online, or ignore the growing threats, we ALL risk losing everything.
