    Yes I do. And jihadists do come in all shades. Those morons who attacked the US Capitol last January were jihadists. Are they mentioned in your website or is it racist?

    I don't follow any pantheons.

    I haven't seen any stats in the articles. Not saying they're incorrect, but I'm not taking someone from RAND at their word.

    It's irrelevant, anyway. I'm talking about Spencer, not Afghanis.

    The attack on the Capital on 1/6 was not carried out by Jihadists. That is unless you want to torture both the Arabic and English language.

    It seems unlikely that a "religious bigot" would be conducting training for the FBI, US Military, Intelligence Community, etc.

    Spencer has led seminars on Islam and jihad for the FBI, the United States Central Command, United States Army Command and General Staff College, the U.S. Army’s Asymmetric Warfare Group, the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), the Justice Department’s Anti-Terrorism Advisory Council and the U.S. intelligence community. He has discussed jihad, Islam, and terrorism at a workshop sponsored by the U.S. State Department and the German Foreign Ministry. He is a senior fellow with the Center for Security Policy.

    Are you happy with the direction that Biden is taking this country?

    At this point even his DieHard supporters can't point their finger at any successes.

    Come to midterms in 2024 the pendulum will swing as it always does.

    The midterms are in 2022. I hope we can get rid of as much gutless Trump ass kissing rabble as possible so that Biden and his team can get some huge infrastructure/jobs plans in the works, restructure the ACA and get the economy roaring, then 2024 will take care of itself. Now it’s all about ridding the government of scumbag Trump loyalists by convincing the independents that they are a cancer on the country. If last night in California was any indicator, it looks like they are moving in the right direction.

    I noticed you failed to answer the question but that's okay I kind of expected as much.

    So let's try again are you happy with the direction that Biden is taking this country? According to poll numbers many are not.

    Name his top three successes since becoming president.

    A few weeks ago, every trumpublican was criticizing Biden for failing to get Afghans out. Now they don’t want them.

    I like the direction he and his team are heading. I realize that he has had a rather rough start and after Afghanistan I expected his poll numbers to go down. However he seems to be steadily and calmly executing his plan without getting flustered. As an American, of course I wish him and his team all the best. He came into office after the Trump clusterfuck with absolutely no cooperation from the previous administration and has still managed to move forward.

    I don’t think anything about California can be used to show movement in the right direction. Wait, actually I can...for next Congress California loses a Congressional seat and Texas gains two. I call that movement in the right direction.

    there is often overlap... some think you have to look a certain way to be part of a religion

    fanatical Christians attack fellow Christians for "looking" Muslim

    How ironic. The Coptic church is possibly the oldest Christian sect, tracing its beginning to the apostles. Dumb, dumb American Christians.

    I dont get a cent of welfare but i DO work 40 hours a week and pay taxes so others can buy steaks and junk food, while I buy ramen noodles and steak every few months.

    Biden just increased food stamps by 25%.
    Are you saying none of my taxes are used there?

    I am saying look at which states are net contributors to the federal budget and which states are net takers.
