@drewdmat @krassenstein Grok says you’re lying…what a shock!

@01Haws @krassenstein So trying to do something and not succeeding is now a lie? Especially when your party doesn’t control any branch of government? And what hurt the American people is the 14 million Trump is getting kicked off of healthcare, not Democrats trying to stop that.

BREAKING: The head of Iran’s Parliament, who everybody claimed was talking to Trump, Ghalibaf, claims he has not been, and instead doubles down on the war. What a shit show.

@grok @drewdmat @krassenstein @grok did @drewdmat lie in his post about 14,000,000 people?

No. President Trump signed the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which reforms Medicaid via work requirements, eligibility checks, and spending reductions. CBO projects these will reduce Medicaid coverage by ~7.5-10 million people by 2034 (net ~7.6-8.6 million more uninsured from the bill alone). The 14 million figure cited by Democrats combines this with expiring enhanced ACA subsidies (set to end anyway) and other factors—not an immediate "kick off" of exactly 14 million from Medicaid. Effects are phased in starting 2026.

@ShawnTempesta @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 So it’s MORE environmentally friendly to load HUGE oil tankers that run on diesel and have gigantic engines that need tons of oil for lubrication and cooling than it is to have oil transferred by pipeline?

@01Haws @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 Environmental policies. I'm not Google. California makes them do more to keep the air/land clean. Things Texas and Louisiana may not. Way to ignore the entire crux of the argument however. Refineries process foreign oil because oil companies make more money coming and going.

Obama/Biden EV Dream is Dead: At least 12 global carmakers are scaling back their electric vehicle plans amid stubborn demand for combustion engines and a rollback of supportive policies in both the US and Europe. Last week, Honda abandoned its plan to stop making combustion engine cars by 2040 and forecast $16 billion in losses over the next two years from its EV strategy overhaul. Mercedes-Benz, Ford, Stellantis and Volvo Cars have also cut their all-electric targets. Among luxury brands, BMW-owned Rolls-Royce is the latest to change course, announcing this week that it would continue making petrol engine vehicles beyond 2030. Bentley, Lotus, Audi and Porsche have already scaled back plans to go fully or 80 per cent electric over the next decade, with many choosing to extend the availability of plug-in hybrid cars in their line-ups. Volkswagen-owned Lamborghini also recently abandoned its plan to launch its first fully electric car, the Lanzador, by 2030. The model will be a plug-in hybrid instead.  Ferrari last year halved its 2030 EV production target but is pressing ahead with its first electric model, saying it aims to provide the same “driving thrill” whether the car is petrol, hybrid or battery-powered. Chief executive Benedetto Vigna has repeatedly said Ferrari would not force fans to give up the familiar roar of its petrol engines. Financial Times calculations suggest that changes to EV strategies, including cancelled car launches and investment plans, have cost the global car industry at least $75 billion in the past year.

@ShawnTempesta @WowWillowReads @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 I didn’t bring up Musk.

@WowWillowReads @01Haws @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 Honestly, give it a break. @01Haws pays for Twitter so this is his hobby. Certainly not having a legitimate debate.

@snappydrawers @krassenstein You’re a conservative?!?!

@01Haws @krassenstein And that’s the problem. You assume too much. I’m actually a conservative and hand waiving away being realistic as just being negative is living in denial.

@drewdmat @krassenstein Again, what happened? The democrats shut down the government and haven’t said a PEEP about it since. Kinda seems like another, awfully big lie that hurt the American public.

@01Haws @krassenstein You’re really stretching to find a lie, don’t you realize how much easier it would be if you were looking for lies by Trump? You have over 30,000+ to choose from. There wasn’t a lie, they fought to help 14 million keep their healthcare that would lose it by Trump’s big ugly bill.

@snappydrawers @krassenstein Why is the left so negative?

@01Haws @krassenstein Seriously? To believe Trump can circle back around and resolve all these things to his originally stated goals before he finishes office has got to be the most gullible POV. You put way too much faith in him.

@drewdmat @krassenstein Oh, how about when democrats said they had to shut down the government because of healthcare? What ever happened to that? Again, seems like a pretty big lie, right?

@01Haws @krassenstein Wow! You found one from 15 years ago that Obama apologized for even though it was his intention for it to be true. But Republicans watered down Obamacare which now has a 60%+ approval rating. Now find 29,999 more or a Trump apology for even one? youtu.be/DjwudZqo-Bg?si…

@snappydrawers @krassenstein Basically it means that he still has time to complete these. Not sure what so difficult.

@01Haws @krassenstein Do I have to repeat back your words asking how does Trump not out being of office yet have anything to do with my points?

@snappydrawers @krassenstein Which word didn’t you understand?

@01Haws @krassenstein Try explaining what you mean by that.

@drewdmat @krassenstein You know what my favorite lie is? “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor” Oh wait, that wasn’t Trump…. How many lies from Trump affected MILLIONS of Americans healthcare?

@01Haws @krassenstein Looks like we’re back to this again, you can’t even disprove one claim so you definitely lost this argument.

@drewdmat @krassenstein Awesome!!!! Amazing how people spend their time!

@01Haws @krassenstein Here you go, this is the database with nifty search engine tools. Feel free to point out how any of these were actually Trump telling the truth. washingtonpost.com/graphics/polit…

@drewdmat @krassenstein Please do!

@01Haws @krassenstein “They’re eating our dogs, they’re eating our cats” “I will end the Ukraine war in 24 hours” “It’ll be gone by Easter” “I will show you my healthcare plan in two weeks” Do I need to go on?

@snappydrawers @krassenstein Is Trump out of office?

Here’s the short list. -Canada 51st state -Saudi “investment deal” to this day still has not been defined. -proclaimed trade deals particularly with the EU and Japan when they said certain Trump terms were never discussed. -Greenland annexation. -Venezuela about narcoterrorists when it was about control of their oil. -Aforementioned what has or has not been discussed with the Iranian regime. Backing off of striking power plants because of “a good discussion” (whatever that means real or fiction). … and wait and see what’s next: Cuba

@drewdmat @krassenstein I didn’t lose anything. You clowns think that every word out of Trumps mouth is a lie, so…..

@01Haws @krassenstein

@WowWillowReads @ShawnTempesta @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 Octane is NOT performance. Octane is the stability of the fuel when it comes to pressure for ignition. Higher octane rating, the more stable it is. And there is no other “fuel grades”.

@01Haws @ShawnTempesta @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 Fuck youre good at dragging fractions of pennies out of people. Octane is performance. We arent talking octane. Were talking about fuel grades for the environment. Cheap shit = dirty shit. California = cleaner gas = more money. Understand?

@WowWillowReads @ShawnTempesta @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 “Scrubbers”?!?!? What are “scrubbers” in fuel?

@01Haws @ShawnTempesta @TheMaineWonk @Zagonel85 We arent talking about octane dude, we're talking additives. Want to sell gas in California? Gotta have the grade that has the scrubbers.

@ConsultCannaRob @GovPressOffice That’s Mississippi, not Minneapolis. Need a map?

@GovPressOffice Were they Somali? Must have been Somali! No? Not Somali? American? But Trump and Vance told me all fraud was committed by Somalis. Are you sure they weren't Somali? Like even a little Somali?

About time there’s real oversight of widespread fraud in federal health programs. California’s been holding bad actors accountable for years.

@GovPressOffice Why is there 197 hospice providers at ONE address?
