But as of now, there are no plans to bring this legislation to a vote in the Senate right now and many Republican Senators made it clear it was also not on the top of their agendas.

"You know I’m really not conversing on that issue at this point," said Sen. Jim Risch, R-Idaho

If the Senate does not take the bill up by the end of this legislative session, it would have to be re-introduced in the next Congress with almost no shot to pass in the House, which will be controlled by Democrats.

TPUSA is supposed to be geared towards the young hip campus conservative, is it not?

Does it actually have any appreciable following or attendance of its events by people who are actually young? Or is it just a grift money dump from Mercer/Koch types to Charlie Kirk for no apparent reason?

Depends on the event, but they pretty consistently book venues that fill up to maybe 1/5th of capacity.

Bear in mind that they are often college lecture halls that they rent out so an 8am on English philosophy pulls more people than them lol

Not really, sure there are channer types but they are a minority. This is a big “ look how cool we are fellow young people type poo poo” with the young ones being dead eyed moron puppets. It’s a mix of a grift and the right being out of touch as usual.

A very warming fact - the back taxes and fines owed to NY state from the tax frauds exposed by The NY Times would roughly equal the appraised value of Trump Tower.

Seize it under asset forfeiture laws and force them to prove they didn't commit any election crimes to get it back. Then take the rest of their poo poo for the back taxes.

Why it's almost like they're in some sort of collusion with Russia or something. Why the gently caress do journalists still post poo poo like that as if it's some epic mystery of amazement that Russia is doing poo poo the Trump admin is trying to cover? Are they really this loving clueless or are they still strumming the decorum cord?

Yeah, I've had people say that before. Their point is that you should sell now and don't wait for the sea level to rise.
"If you think the sea levels will rise, just sell it now and get out while you can!"

They say it so smugly with a poo poo-eating grin on their face. "I owned this lib so hard."

I brought this up with a Ben fan once. "Because the liberals keep trying to cut him off". Strange that I see the opposite in all his videos

It's like arguing with 9/11 truthers
"Well see the smoke the way it arches as the building collapses, clearly explosive"
Why would someone put explosives on the top floor. And if you watch the video the smoke cloud is drug down with the floor as it collapses
"Yeah, smoke, clearly and explosion, it couldn't be anything else"
The building was on fire, dumbass
"From the explosions!"

Is ben shapiro even speaking right now or are all these insecure white male superstar personalities talking later at this TPUSA thing?

I tried watching a couple Jordan Peterson videos one time to see what the deal was and honestly he took so goddamn long to get to the point of fbe question just babbling about stuff that seemed inconsequential i never finished either one. Ben Schapiro seems almost like a comedian or troll personality from what I've overheard of him from a guy at work that sometimes listens to his show. I wouldnt want to hear either speak at length to be honest.
