Guns FROM the US is what supplies drug cartels and gangs such as MS-13. https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-21-322 What GAO Found Trafficking of U.S.-sourced firearms into Mexico is a national security threat, as it facilitates the illegal drug trade and has been linked to organized crime. The Department of Justice's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) found that 70 percent of firearms reported to have been recovered in Mexico from 2014 through 2018 and submitted for tracing were U.S. sourced. The U.S. Southwest Border Counternarcotics Strategy: 2020 identified the trafficking of firearms from the U.S. into Mexico as a threat to the safety and security of both countries. The Mexican government has estimated that 200,000 firearms are smuggled from the United States each year. Normally a dancing police gif would be called for here, but I don’t think the police, border patrol, ATF, etc are too fond of this fact.

He appointed a member of the KKK to the Court in 1937 and an additional 7 others, so he didn't have to expand it afterall. https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/how-fdr-lost-his-brief-war-on-the-supreme-court-2 Did he junk the constitution and declare a dictatorship?

Im at 5 weeks + The last company I worked for, I had 2 weeks to start, 3 weeks at 5yr, 4 weeks at 10 years and 5 weeks at 15 years. When I started with the new company, I got 5 upfront + The (+) is, I can work my own schedule, can work from home, and take off without using PTO anytime I need to. Honestly, I never use all 5 weeks.

True story, I interviewed for a teaching job a few weeks ago and the Head of School of course asked me about CRT. I gave her an answer and thought she’d move on, but instead she pressed me for more on it. We’re in the dumbest timeline possible.

Honestly, I'd be all about home schooling except for the fact that developing social skills are just as important. I'm weird enough and baby girl deserves a fighting chance.
June 6, 20224 yr yeah I know the narrative is that a President has no control over oil pricing, (wich would have to ignore how he can impact the supply from the US, both current and future, and the how the cost of extraction and production can be impacted by regulations) and there are those that still believe that everything Biden did in his first week in office with reversing the deregulations, stopping the drilling leasing on Federal Lands, and stopping the XL pipeline expansion had zero impact on all of it.
June 6, 20224 yr Sadly, evil is universal. Past week has disproven TWO lies from gun-control Left: (1) "gun control works!”Then mass murder in Philadelphia—w/ strict laws. (2) "this only happens in America!” Then a mass murder in Nigeria. We need to (1) STOP criminals & (2) PROTECT innocent.

And when you change the ability & cost to supply from one of the Major suppliers (THE US) it affects the global market as well. You can keep digging your head into the sand. What Biden did, absoluetly had an impact. Was it the only thing that has impacted it ? NO, but it did have an impact.
