NebDoc 🇺🇸

@JimRogers_Nebr @janekleeb @NebraskaDems I think I’m probably going to wrap up this conversation as well. I appreciate your respectable arguments. I think we will shake hands and say agree to disagree. Happy to buy you a beer at a husker game if our paths cross, however.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Great reasoned responses, btw. Thanks for taking the time. I'm retired, you're working! So, your time is valuable. Again, if you're waiting on a resp from me, just remind me what I missed. Happy to respond to any issues you have with my "Dems are better cons" theory!

I was specifically responding to Fox stupid article saying lots of groups like Indivisible, ACLU, HRC are coordinating about the rallies as if that's news. Our Dem party doesn't coordinate with socialist groups and the ones you highlight in your article I've never even heard of. Do better if you are an actual "news" site or you keep proving you're just a site Republicans will use in negative mail pieces agains Dems. You should correct your article.

I’m old 🤣. Reagan and conservatives in the 80s wanted nothing at all similar to what the ACA turned into. He did not want federal involvement. He wanted fair market capitalism to control health care rates. He expanded Medicare a little bit, but I challenge your statement that Reagan wanted something similar to what Obama character turned into.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Don't know your age, but ACA was the cons answer to Hillarycare in 93, and I was part of the conserv movmnt pushing ACA like hell. Gingrich, Buckley, Gramm, even Reagan! ACA was consrv canon. But when a Dem passed exactly that ACA? Commie heresy!! It was a stunnning reversal.

@JimRogers_Nebr @janekleeb @NebraskaDems I believe in school choice as it pertains to charter and private schools. I do not support schools allowing opposite sex students into the other locker rooms.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Per my earlier post to you: American Ideals (Conservs used to support): -Immigr. as big net positive (Reagan amnesty) -Locker policy as local decision (Small govt) -4th Am. rights vs. ICE overreach (FedSoc core) MAGA rejects this conserv legacy. Dems are now defending it.

@JimRogers_Nebr @janekleeb @NebraskaDems I agree with you and that I am not a fan of Soros or his influence on this country. I will concede the point and I think he is a threat to our country.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems I explained "Strawmen" right after the word! Explained the Dems support 4thA, not cons. Cited Caplan on +'s of all immigr. You say Dems demonze; I show you demonize Soros. Proved cons bad on spending, local choice; you agreed. So, there's 5 where Dems closer, you agreed on 2!

I’m more of a Sowell immigration supporter. Limited specific immigration from a need perspective rather than free and open borders. If you support that approach why even have separate countries and borders at all? This has shown already to place a huge financial burden on our society and support networks just over past ten years. My own experience in healthcare supports this with a significant increase in unfunded and underfunded care.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Sorry! Can you repeat any question I missed? Swear I thought I responded to all! Caplan is a top cons economist, and makes a strong cons case for full immigrn.-- even open borders. You may not be convinced in the end, but there is a real cons argument! amazon.com/Open-Borders-S…

@JimRogers_Nebr @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Live it every day…. Not love it.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Also interested in what medicine you practice. My PhD is in mathematical biochem and I'm a cancer researcher. I'm not a clinician, though (my wife is), so would be interested in your take on Obamacare. To me, ACA is a conserv crowning achievemnt that the 'Pubs just threw away!

We will have to agree to disagree on if legal immigration as per the 70’s-80’s equals what we saw in the last decade. In trying my best to respond to your queries but would love answers to the questions I posed to you also. Lively debate without name calling and slander is missing in current politics which is why I enjoy these type of debates. We can agree on GBR and disagree on others.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems I like your posts as you are a doc (so smart) and I like challenge (and do change my mind). But seems you're not reading my responses. I'm Dem, but we have some common grnd. I'll have NU budget analyses you'll love! My opponents? Never a detailed critical review of spending.

Would you like to comment on my reply or just come back with “Strawman” and the same arguments. What have you said that shows Dems are closer to conservatives than MAGA? I am aware of the two Santa Claus theory from the 1970s. I will concede the point that BOTH sides have contributed to our expanding and unsustainable federal debt. I do think that tax cuts and controlling federal spending is a better option than uncontrolled spending on social programs. Would you like to comment on the rampant fraud in blue states on these programs? I think the facts are out there that there has been massive fraud in states like California and Minnesota. Do you disagree that the list I put out has been the predominant focus of the Democratic Party of the last 5 to 8 years? Do you not feel that the socialist arm of the Democrats has become the leading voice nationally? When you come at me with facts, but honestly tell me three things that the Democratic Party supports nationally? Their entire platform (likely to scare people and generate political funding) has been arguing against anything that the Republicans have accomplished over that time. Lastly, I immediately disagree that uncontrolled the legal immigration is the same as strategic legal immigration. The financial burden that has put on our country as well as local county and state budgets is enormous. I see it regularly in the hospitals, where the amount of unfunded and underfunded care for illegal immigrants has skyrocketed in the last decade.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems -What do I support that socists hold dear? -Give 3 Trump imperfection -Con theory clear immgra = net pos, even illegal -Glad agree on local school choice; I'm told you now must be rad pro-trans? -I provided ton of support Dems (and I) are closer than MAGA to (real) con prncpls.

You tell me you are a conservative, but stand with the Democratic Party. The Democratic platform over the last eight years has been open borders, illegal immigration, expansive, entitlement, program funding, coupled with expensive fraud and waste, burning down our cities during riots, torching and defunding our police and law-enforcement, pushing for men in women’s sports, and advancing a DEI agenda over merit based opportunities. More recently the socialist arm of the Democratic Party seems to be taking the lead with recent elections and are being funded by known socialist Soros and his groups. That is not my idea of being a conservative. When you say that you are a democrat, that is what you stand for. That is the party banner you’ve chosen to lineup behind. I will go back to my initial statement and echo what I said yesterday, which is I hope you never get within an inch of being a Regent over our students in our state college.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems 'Pubs clean on that? They are the biggest spenders of all! Jude Wanniski came up with "Two Santa Clauses Theory" in the '70s. So, conserv's fiscally irresponsible by design and on purpose. Yet, you dump on Dems. Once again, Dems closer to (real) conserv principles.

@JimRogers_Nebr @janekleeb @NebraskaDems And to say you’re a fiscal conservative and a democrat in the current state of your party is an oxymoron.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems Strawmen. I am vehemently anti-socialist, and you know nothing about my thoughts on trans in sports. I am a fiscal conservative, running on platform of NU reform on budgets-- far stronger than any other candidate. Your point on demonize Trump diminished by demonizing Soros.

@JimRogers_Nebr @janekleeb @NebraskaDems No, you want them to see it your way. Socialism and open borders, men in women’s sports, social handouts laden with fraud, and supporting a Soros funded takeover attempt of our country.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems As regent, I want students to see debate without destroying our shared American foundations. I prioritize Rational Principles over "Radical Success." Now Dems are closer to this ideal; conservs used to be. American ideals core to me, so I'm a Dem now.

Legal immigration is good. Illegal invasion is bad. Small govt is good. Radically overfunded and fraud-laden social handouts are bad. ICE is pursing illegal immigrants that have chosen to remain in our country illegally. MAGA supports America First and doing everything to protect and take care of our CITIZENS over those here illegally. The only thing we hear from the left is how Trump is bad, evil, racist, a Nazi, and nothing he does has benefited this country. Your bias has made you blind.

@NebDoc69720 @janekleeb @NebraskaDems American Ideals (Conservs used to support): -Immigration as big net positive (Reagan amnesty) -Locker policy as local decision (Small govt) -4th Am. rights vs. ICE overreach (FedSoc core) MAGA rejects this conserv legacy. Dems are now the ones defending it.

@janet_chung Wouldn’t you agree if you attended the NoKings march on any day other than July 4th then the Libtard things kinda hits the mark…

National polling indicates Jim Pillen is one of the nation’s least popular incumbent governors. Concerns include a $2.5 million no-bid state contract (being investigated by Lincoln Police Department) and he called critics “libtards” during a telephone town hall.

@kenmartin73 Maybe you should focus on the rampant fraud and waste in Minnesota and leave managing our country to the adults in the room. How any liberal from your state has the gall to speak on any issue is amazing given what’s happening in your state.

Donald Trump promised America lower costs and no new wars. But today, gas is $4 a gallon because of a war he and JD Vance started. Trump, Vance, and Republicans sold millions of voters a false bill of goods—let’s vote them the hell out.

@janekleeb @maddow I’m glad we agree that we have NoKings in the USA. I’m proud to call @realDonaldTrump my president and happy to get to call him YOURS! 🇺🇸

Hastings, Grand Island, Lincoln and Omaha made the @maddow show coverage of the #NoKing rally!! We made LA Times too :) Let's go Nebraska!

Seriously? If you think fighting against illegal immigration, deporting those who have committed crimes and working to remove those who skirted our laws to enter illegally, fighting against boys in girls sports and locker rooms, and supporting ALL of our law enforcement including ICE, DHS, and border control is anti-American then I guess I’m at fault. You all have demonized MAGA supporters and anything associated with Trump to the tune of arguing against all of his even radical successes. I hope you get nowhere near our college kids as a Regent.

@janekleeb Jane on solid ground here. I'm NOT socialist but had no problem standing with them to fight Trumpism. I even distributed the @NebraskaDems materials. Conservative and tired of Trump? Look at today's Dems. Closer to *real* conserv principle than Trumpism!

@AVGirl4Life @SamLedger161453 @Thejerk3333 @BillZotti @AmericasBadger @homer_homerp @73Nwo @lewhiteva Got them all. LFG! 🇺🇸

Let's boost these MAGA patriots. They all engage and reconnect. @Thejerk3333 @BillZotti @AmericasBadger @homer_homerp @73Nwo @lewhiteva Comment to gain followers.

@AngieLauritsen Yep. That’s exactly what we voted for. That is because @realDonaldTrump is YOUR president.

Fun Fact: ICE and CBP have a larger budget than our US Marine Corps. 🇺🇸 They received an additional $85 billion last year and all of the Nebraska Federal delegation voted for it. Let that sink in. #TMYKYK #NE02 #NE01 #NESen #PayTSA
