what states get in federal money is all inclusive on the chart I showed and tell the complete story to what each state receives to what they give.


Your chart takes a lot of things in consideration that is outside this topic. Since the thread is about Trump going low by "dumping" immigrants on the sanctuary cities, lets just look at welfare.
Topping the list is...

#1 California receives a whopping 103 BILLION DOLLARS in welfare. That's more than the next 2 put together.

#2 New York ...61.4 BILLION DOLLARS

#3 Texas at 35.4 BILLION DOLLARS Texas gets a lot of border crossings, so I don't hold them responsible.

The other 7 are;


4. Florida $27 billion

5. Pennsylvania $27 billion

6. Illinois $21 billion

7. Ohio $20 billion

8. Massachusetts $19 billion

9. New Jersey $17 billion

10. Michigan $16 billion

Here's what I don't find on your chart but I believe it is more to the point of this thread. 7 of the 10 biggest welfare states are either strong democratic, or leaning democratic. Only Texas, Florida, and Ohio are evenly matched between the 2 parties. None are republican leaning or strong republican.
Republican states get more federal money, but not just for welfare. I*****l i*********n costs California 30.3 BILLION DOLLARS per year, a staggering 17% of their total budget.
The point is, democratic states don't look so hot when all you look at is welfare. I didn't check all 50 states...maybe California and New York are exceptions, I don't know. This is just what I found.

"Today's Republican Party is a radical insurgency – ideologically extreme, scornful of facts and compromise, dismissive of its political opposition."

Today's democratic party has taken leave of reality and has delved into the world of make believe. If Ornstein said that, he is NOT a conservative. You said you don't bulls$@t people but you just did, because he is LIBERAL. You and him can call his bile wh**ever you want, heck! I'm a rocket scientist...I'm a jet pilot...
t***h is...I'm not and he's not. Only in your mind is he a conservative.
You spread lies like Pelosi, Shumer, and the 20 to 35 democratic p**********l candidates and I just proved it. We are the party of compassion and love, but we'll impeach that mother f*^$ing Trump.... We will fight for the rights of every American right after we sign this bill allowing birth day a******ns We need those i*****l i*******ts...err..just......not in our cities They are valuable to us, but don't dump em' here! (don't we dump...garbage???) Yes, but they're valuable garbage.


Unbelievable...just unbelievable.

Do the Jews believe that God has a Son?


Hey! my friend, Kyle,

From what I have seen, when asked what is Jesus to the Jews, they say he is nothing. The Jews don't believe that God would ever take the lowly form of a man. I'm not able to figure out how they view their religion. If they are not under grace from our Lord, Jesus Christ, then they MUST still be under the law. I do know that they are bringing back the red heifer herd for sacrifice, but they are are not following the law as in the days of old. They also don't believe in the trinity. Muslims don't believe in the trinity also, yet they say nothing is impossible for Alla.
The red heifer was k**led and burnt and the ashes used for the purification of one who has come into contact with a corpse, which was forbidden by the law.

Hi friend David...

Sorry to hear that your only contact with Muslims were those d********g examples...

The hijab is not a true requirement of Islam... The Koran urges women to be humble and cover themselves as a sign of this..
Many Christian sects used to/still do the same...
It has Nothing to do with rape.. Although there are some men who have claimed that a woman who doesn't dress conservatively and is raped was asking for it... Truly sickening...

There are many Muslim women who choose not to wear the hijab... And many who prefer it... Personally I have found that when my friends wear their hijabs I tend to pay more attention to their eyes and face... I strongly disagree with the nations/sects who have instituted it as law....

I recall a friend of mine from highschool who joined a church on the coast that required women to only wear dresses and keep their heads covered... And of course there are the Amish...

FYI: the Church of Canuckistania requires all individuals named Kevyn wirh a 'Y' to wear leopard spotted leotards and cover their heads with pinata shaped hats..

My goodness...you had me laughing there at the end. We have Mennonites about a hundred miles to the north. The men walk side by side, have on black suits and hats with white shirts and beards. The women walk behind and are dressed in dresses that go to the ground with stove pipe bonnets. You have to be directly in front of them to see their faces. They make great saddles and even better cheeses. I saw somewhere about the hijab and rape, and I assumed( yeah, I know) it to be true because of the increase in rape reported when Somali's and other refugees go into a country where women show legs and cleavage.

My bad. I looked it up but I was very tired having been up all night. I try to check myself before I post so as not to look ignorant. You got me on another post today too. I bow to your powers of observation and will try to do better.

In order for a country to be strong, it has to make money. Trump is seeing to that. Strong means military. Trump is seeing to that. Strong means security. Trump is working hard against almost all democrats on that. Strong means family. Trump is working on that. Strong is taking care of your own. Trump is taking care of that. If fact, Trump is working hard on making the USA not only strong, but the strongest. Russia is nothing compared to what it used to be. China has a lot of people. They are just now getting cars. In the mid 90's a lady gave a slide presentation on a trip to China. She said the question most often asked was,"Is it true that every American owns a car?" She and we were cavers and she said the warmest place to be was in a cave.
There are 3 big boys in da' hood right now, and the USDA is one of them. If we stick together and get out to v**e, we'll have Trump and Pence for the next 12 years. We won't have a thing to worry about.

Just one more thing Max, there are many belivers out there not truely commited to Christ YET, thinking that there is plenty of time to do so. I belive that we are in the last days. There is nothing that must happen before the Rapture from happening today, tomorrow, or the day after. When that happens it will be like a twinkle of the eye, and those waiting will be left behind.

That's because you'd have to be fantasizing to believe that I've been blasted. It's more likely you just iked what you read and took that I had been blaste. I have never been blasted by a conservative. I've been debating them for 25-30 years and have gained a good education in the process. We liberals know that the vast majority of conservatives are good people caught up in an old and bad ideology. Every human being has both good and bad impulses; it is our beliefs and mindset that channel our actions one way or the other. All of us have the capacity to be both selfish and selfless. Conservatives are very caring and kind within their in-group, and sometimes they choose to extend that kindness to outsiders. But not often or consistently enough. This is one of the key differences between conservatives and liberals. All we liberals are asking is that conservatives step into the better side of their own selves in their relationship with the wider world of humans - and nature - rather than toward those too often negative and selfish ways of being.

I don't see any kindness on your part or of any one on your side of things. You say you have never been blasted, but I have seen it myself. You just rely on that relative t***h that even though you got mentally and morally shamed into anger, you think you won the debate. You're a bitter California liberal and nothing else.

Considering how many investigations still going on I'm betting trumps in trouble.


There are no more investigations...just vindictive blind grasping for straws, hoping beyond hope to find....something....to get rid of this man. Turn that same investigative power on the investigators and within 1 month, every seat in DC would be empty. We all know it, and so do you.

If I may ask you this, if Congress( the House and the Senate) who is appointed to have the power to impeach according to our constitution then they must be delivered all the information possible in order to come to a clear and Just decision, and have our faith in our elected officials to do so, if not, then where do we go from there? Should we simply call it a day and hand our country over to whomever would like to run it, or do we reorganize, take the time to find good honorable people and rebuild and become even stronger.

We're going through a time where people from within and without are trying to have us implode as Rome did, we need strong leadership to bring us together and (s)he can't do it alone, we have to get in the game and not by flinging mud, I know you agree with that.

Trump is NOT "whomever would like to run it". Trump was elected in a free and f**r e******n as proven by your boy, Mueller. Read this slowly....N-O C-O-L-L-U-S-I-O-N !-!-!. N-O F-U-T-H-E-R I-N-D-I-C-T-M-E-N-T-S !-!-!. You reduce your statements to babble with such a ridiculous description of the president. That's like me saying that Hillary was just some old woman who couldn't fit the britches she was shooting for.
Liberals always show their true side when the inevitable slur comes out. Thee is NO discourse with such insolence. Make no mistake, your party members are the ones doing the imploding. You people h**e Trump so bad, you'd be willing to lose the nation just to get him out of office.
