Mike

@kbriancox @LeaderJohnThune Nope. They’ll grandstand and then nothing will happen. Sad when your own side has ZERO faith in your leaders. I actually like Mike Johnson more and more everyday

@LeaderJohnThune We’ve read about bombshells, concerns, threats to democracy, and all types of other cute phrases for almost 9 months. Are you guys gonna do something…?

I have grave concerns about a new report showing that the Biden-era FBI spied on Republican senators – and I fully support Senate committees getting to the bottom of this outrageous abuse of power and weaponization of the government.

@mikefriess @petenakos lol. Ahmad Hardy is way better.

@mikefriess @petenakos

Tennessee QB Joey Aguilar 8. Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza 9. Texas A&M QB Marcel Reed 10. Ohio State QB Julian Sayin

@TNFaithful @housell10 So he shouldn’t try?

@housell10 I completely agree, there isn't. My issue is just how consistent it happens and how he keeps getting them to pick the flag up. Don't get me wrong, I respect him for his skill and how good of a player he is. His antics just really get on my bad side.

Mahomes is so unlikeable as a player Bro literally just walks up to those refs on a call he doesn't like and always gets the benefit of doubt This is why 99% of the country can't stand the Chiefs

@nnncurtis @C_3C_3 Quit mooching off our conversations. You know absolute shit about St Louis. They don’t even have a Republican county executive you idiot. Dont you have maple syrup to make?

@C_3C_3 St Louis, Memphis, Jacksonville, and Bessemer are Republican

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: “Diversity is not your strength. Your strength is your unity of purpose, your shared mission, your love of country”

@KyleGovier @Huberton Republicans

@Huberton Who won last time?

🚨WTF! Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "The Right-Wing in this country wants a REMATCH of the CIVIL WAR!" MAYOR JOHNSON is a liar and a traitor.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Tell me about how easy it is to get places in New Zealand? What career opportunities are there? How much does it cost to fly to and from?

The American Dream offers great earning potential—median household income hit ~$78k in 2024 (Census), with top earners at $200k+ possible. However, per 2025 data (Worlddata.info), USA's average effective tax is ~11%, vs. New Zealand's 18%—yet NZ ranks higher in quality of life (Numbeo) due to strong social services. Success depends on personal goals; many thrive abroad too.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 lol. I’ll live here where you can live the American dream and make $200k+ a year and live like a king. All of those other economies and governments will tax you to the bread line.

According to the 2025 Global Peace Index, the USA ranks 128th out of 163 countries (score 2.443), behind Iceland (1st, 1.095), Ireland, and New Zealand. Factors include higher rates of violent crime and militarization compared to top nations. Media can amplify events, but stats from sources like Vision of Humanity and Numbeo confirm it's not the safest globally. Safety varies by location—always check local data.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 @fkngkzz still waiting for you to admit I’m right. USA is safest country in the world. The media loves to make it look like a war movie. Have you ever even been here?

De fato, os EUA enfrentam tiroteios em massa frequentes: em 2025, o Gun Violence Archive registra centenas de incidentes (4+ vítimas), com dezenas em escolas, igrejas e eventos públicos, resultando em ~500 mortes até out/25 (dados parciais). No entanto, a taxa de homicídios geral é menor nos EUA (5,8/100.000 em 2023, UNODC) que no Brasil (19,3/100.000). A violência varia por local; pesquise alertas de viagem.

@fkngkzz @grok @CataPaul2 We have something called bad neighborhoods where gangs fight and crimes happen. It is less than 1% of the population and less than 5% of the areas are dangerous. We like to keep our crime located in certain neighborhoods. lol.

@mi36548 @grok @CataPaul2 Seguro pra quem ? Todo dia tem um maluco matando pessoas do nada , é nas escolas , nas igrejas , em eventos públicos @grok fala sobre

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 @fkngkzz ouch, that hurts. You’ve got nothing. Waiting for you to block me.

@mi36548 @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Latest UNODC data (2023): Homicide rates per 100,000 - USA: 5.8, Brazil: 19.3, Mexico: 24.9. Ranking: USA lowest, Brazil middle, Mexico highest. 2024 estimates show Mexico dropping to ~19-25 (sources vary on methodology), Brazil ~21.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Actually @grok let’s do murders per capita rankings between Mexico, USA and Brazil too. I think I want to annoy @fkngkzz even more.

@mi36548 @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Got it—sticking to safety. If more specifics are needed, like regional breakdowns, let me know. Data consistently points to US having lower overall crime rates per GPI and Numbeo.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Nope, just safety for now. @fkngkzz was about to apologize

@mi36548 @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Based on the stats we've reviewed (GPI, Numbeo), US ranks safer overall than Brazil/Mexico in peace and crime indices. If you need comparisons on more scenarios like healthcare access or road safety, let me know—I'll pull the latest data.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Are you ready to say I was right @fkngkzz? Need more examples?

Understood—focusing solely on safety metrics. Global Peace Index 2025 ranks US 128th (score 2.443), safer than Brazil (130th, 2.472) and Mexico (135th, 2.636; lower score = more peaceful). Numbeo Crime Index (mid-2025) shows US ~55, Mexico ~53, Brazil ~66 (higher = riskier). Traveler advisories (e.g., US State Dept) rate Mexico/Brazil with more high-risk areas than US averages. Safety varies by location.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 Not applicable @grok. We were arguing over what is safe, not more scenic.

While specific US scenarios like trains and urban walks show lower crime stats per sources like BTS and CPD, broader solo travel rankings (US News) place the US at —behind Brazil () and Mexico ()—due to factors like cultural accessibility and scenery. Safety always depends on location; research advisories for any trip.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 @fkngkzz Your losing on every one of these. Ready to concede?

Michigan Avenue's Magnificent Mile benefits from heavy policing and tourist crowds, with 2025 CPD data showing low assault/robbery rates (under 5 incidents per 1,000 visitors in the district). Downtown Rio's Centro faces high violent crime, per Numbeo (88/100 index) and ISP reports of frequent muggings. Walking Michigan Ave statistically poses lower risk than Centro.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 What about walking on Michigan Ave vs walking in downtown Rio?

Based on 2025 stats, Chicago's Red Line sees ~1.7 crimes per 100,000 rides (Illinois Policy Institute), with YTD crimes down 3% to 350 line-wide (CBS Chicago). The Addison-Chicago Ave segment reports occasional thefts but low violence. Rio buses had 712 public transport thefts in Aug 2025 (ISP), with robberies up 7% YOY and hijackings rising (Interlira Reports). Statistically, the Rio bus ride has higher theft/robbery risk.

@grok @fkngkzz @CataPaul2 How about riding the red line from Addison to Chicago Ave in Chicago vs a bus in Rio?

Based on nationwide stats, the US has lower train crime rates (e.g., <1 major crime per million riders per BTS/FRA data) and accident rates (down 33% since 2005). Brazil's public transit sees higher theft/robbery incidents, but passenger trains are limited—no direct Rio-Brasília route exists as of 2025. Thus, the LA-NYC Amtrak trip is statistically safer.

@fkngkzz @CataPaul2 lol. And that’s why all of those illegals were risking their lives to get here. Give me a fucking break. You take a train ride from Rio to Brasilia and LA to NYC. @grok which train ride would be safer based on nationwide statistics from both countries?

@mi36548 @CataPaul2 Pra que? Pra EUA está mais perigoso que o Brasil e México
