Show me where is states that " the U.S. military was involved on the ground (not just providing intel.)" or is this just another example of gandler's misinformation and disinformation bullcrap.


It doesn’t. But notice Gandler posting an article FROM OVER A MONTH AGO! to defend his outright lie. Gandler has proven REPEATEDLY he will just make stuff up if it is anti -Trump.

This one is easily summarized. ‘US intelligence aids Mexico in its war against terrorist drug cartels’.

I’ve been to Mexico 3 times. Won’t ever again.


So we have a President that has been pushing for U.S. troops in Mexico for a year a year now, and has been really ramping up the rhetoric the last month, and troops have even been staged over the last 1-3months. And, out of nowhere, a huge military strike on a Cartel leader. And, you think there is zero possibility of U.S. troops being present?

Mexico is a place I really want to go again soon. Especially Chichén Itzá (my goal is to eventually see all of the wonders.)


No, I don’t think there is a zero chance we would help Mexico with boots on the ground. But I wouldn’t post it as a fact just kinda hoping it was true like you did.

I’ve been to Chichen Itza with my kids. 25 years ago ish? We were allowed to climb to the top back then. Extremely narrow steps. Definitely dangerous. They literally had an ambulance stationed at the bottom. I’m glad I did it. Wouldn’t do it again! (It’s been illegal since 2008)


The preponderance of evidence indicates it's true. And, if it's not true, the President wishes that is were, so based strictly on intent, it really doesn't actually matter.



I really want to go one day even if you can't climb it. Mexico has a lot of cool places I want to get to, I have been very limited places in Mexico (basically near the U.S. the border.)


Once again, you writing ‘the preponderance of evidence indicates it’s true’ actually translates to ‘there is NO evidence that indicates it’s true’. So your were close…. Mexico is saying it was done solely by Mexican boots on the ground. The USA has said the same thing. (But Gandler says the opposite!)

Anyway, look into Tulum. Sort of a ‘poor man’s Chichin Itza’. Also a famous butterfly trek. If you are a snorkler /SCUBA guy there’s Cozumel.


I know what Mexico and U.S. said. I respectfully don't agree. And, I think more info will come out in the coming years. I mean we are still getting new info on raids from 2011, for obvious reasons they usually lie for at least many years right after. That being said, I don't want to fight with you over this, I stand by my assessment of the evidence and operations, if you don't agree that is fair, this is actually a view I hold which I can't defend.

I wouldn't mind Tulum, but wife has been there many times when younger, so she really doesn't want to see it again. I want to broadly go to the Yucatan, that part of Mexico, Belize, and some of Guatamala seems like a fun trip.


You can have a ‘theory’ that will be proven true in the future for which there is no evidence now. Sound’s eerily similar to those who say Biden’s win was a stolen election…!

Tulum is in the Yucatán.

Seems like you would be interested in a Peru trip. Machu Pichu, and the Nazca Lines are once in a lifetime experiences. If you are interested in hiking, there is the Inca trail.


And you woulod be one of those "Biden stole the election" people, Scott.

Not at all. I’m sure there is more election fraud than we will ever find out about. As I’ve stated ad nauseum, people committing fraud/crimes/murder do their best not to be caught. But no way do I think there was enough fraud to change the electoral results of a single state.

Anyway, back to AOC. She is being skewered for not knowing Venezuela is in the northern hemisphere. I’d bet at least 2/3 of Americans would make that same mistake. It’s not as big a mistake as thinking Denmark hands out the Nobel Prize…..

Former Norway PM Attempts Suicide After Epstein-Linked Raid, Corruption Charges

emphasis below mine

Quote:
Norway’s former Prime Minister Thorbjørn Jagland was hospitalized a week ago after a failed suicide attempt, days after he was charged with “gross corruption” after a police probe into his ties with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, local outlet iNyheter reports.

Jagland, 75, who gave Barack Obama a Nobel peace price less than nine months into his presidency,
was charged on February 12 after police carried out an extensive search of his properties – including apartments in Oslo and in Risør.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

There you go again. n one sentence you state there isn't enough voter fraud. But htne in the next sentence you imply there could be, because there is more voter fraud than we know of. I call BS on your whisper campaign.

Either produce evidence of significant voter fraud or shut the fuck up about it.

Trump thinks of himself as "the real McCoy." Perhaps he is. Visualize Trump as Walter Brennan in "The Real McCoys." He's a sheep herder overseeing a worthless flock. They've no vim or vigor, no sense of true direction: on autopilot they've surrendered all power to their benefactor, Donald Trump. The real McCoy sneers disdainfully at the sheep, secure in the knowledge that he alone wields the whip.

I'm increasing the highest fraud total I've read so far by the Somali Pirates in MN to $19 billion:


Previously, the highest amount I read was $12 billion.

The total Pirates' incarcerated are less than 100, last I read.


It's averaging no more than $190 million stolen per Pirate.

I'd expect one of two things, government officials to be incarcerated or government officials being suicided all of the sudden.


More likely the second, to prevent the truth from getting out.

I don't think the big guy got 10% of this take, because he wasn't in his right mind.

First of all, I don’t STFU about ANYTHING because you want me to. Define significant for me?

In my world, I put safeguards in place to PREVENT such fraud. As long as they are reasonable. And to me, nothing is more reasonable than requiring ID to vote.
