A Trump supporter was seated next to an older woman on an airplane and he turned to her and said, “Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.” The old woman, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger: “What would you want to talk about?” “Oh, I don’t know,” said the man. “How about how they stole the election in 2020 and Donald Trump should be president.” “Okay,” she said. “Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff – grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?” The man, visibly surprised by the old woman’s question, thinks about it and says, “Hmmm, I have no idea.” To which the old woman replies, “Do you really feel qualified to discuss politics, when you don’t know shit?"

I know. It’s because you’re stupid & the fact I do not lie asshole. You post some more memes mikey & I’ll stick with the facts. Here’s more for you to crap your depends over James Biden Confirms Chinese Origin of $40K Check He Wrote To His Brother, President Joe Biden. James Biden, the brother of President Joe Biden, acknowledged during his recent impeachment inquiry testimony that he had written a $40,000 check to former Vice President Joe Biden in 2017 using funds obtained from a company with alleged links to the Chinese government. During the February 21st interview with Members of Congress, James Biden admitted that the funds originated from Beijing-controlled CEFC China Energy. Bank records subpoenaed for the investigation showed just $46.88 remaining in James Biden’s bank account before he received a $50,000 payment, days before the $40,000 checkwent to his brother Joe. The source of the $50,000 was traced back to Lion Hall Group, an entity owned by James Biden. His lawyer, Paul Fishman, argued that tracing the exact origin of the money was complicated due to its fungible nature. Evidence was presented that, between November 2022 and July 2023, James Biden received $840,000 in four separate transfers from Argentinian businessman Jose Luis Manzano. According to Biden, the amount was paid for half of his stake in Manzano’s holdings in Argentinian natural gas company Metrogas. Manzano had tasked James Biden with managing an effort to attract Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim to invest in Argentina’s 4G network. Slim ultimately declined Biden’s investment offer. The impeachment inquiry testimony also shed light on additional international business schemes by James Biden. He disclosed that in 2018, he made a $200,000 loan repayment to Joe Biden using funds obtained from financially distressed rural hospital company Americore. James Biden said he used the loan from his brother to secure investment from Qatar for infrastructure projects, including hotel construction in Miami.
