who wins in a wrestling match between Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chris Christie?
sometime in '24 tweet from Trump
"Sloppy JB Pritzker, the Rotund Governor from the once great State of Illinois, who makes Chris Christie look like a male model"
even people who get offended easily have to find this dig a good one
Nearly 1,600 people charged in the January 6, 2021 protest on the US Capitol....and 180 charged with carrying deadly weapons..thats less than 12%..the rest were barefisted..doesn't sound like much of an attempt to overthrow the government equipped like that ...
Bush #1 starting using Guantanamo as a detention center which was continued by Slick Willie but I can't verify your 45k figure. Can you?
Any internet search will give you all of the details.
Sure, common knowledge during the time Castro told them they could leave Cuba. Clinton said they would be detained at Gitmo during whatever processing was to be done. There were some Haitians as well. But it was similar to many other refugee camps around the world, where it was mostly tents, etc.
November 1991
The Pentagon builds housing for the flood of refugees arriving at the base from Haiti. In 1994, thousands of Cubans join them. Eventually, more than 45,000 Cubans and Haitians are held in tent cities covering much of the base. Most Cubans are admitted into the United States, but most Haitians are sent back home. The last of the Cubans depart in 1996.
and:
After campaigning against the policy of repatriation, Clinton reversed course and maintained it. By 1994 tens of thousands of Haitians and Cubans were held in a refugee camp at Guantanamo Bay.
Well, well, well. 
If one does a media search on "Clinton used Gauntanamo Bay" you get from;
PBS; "The little known history of Gauntanamo Bay". The move, first made by the George H. W. Bush administration, would lay the groundwork for the U.S. government in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks to claim it could hold people at Guantanamo Bay beyond the reach of American law.
They skipped right past Clinton.
USA TODAY; The center occupies a small portion of the base, with limited capacity, and cannot house the 30,000 people Trump suggested could be sent there, according to a report by the The Associated Press.
No mention of Clinton there!
Reuters; The detention facility at Guantanamo Bay was set up in 2002 by then-U.S. President George W. Bush to detain foreign militant suspects following the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. There are 15 detainees left in the prison.
NBC NEWS; (my favorite) "CLINTON SLAMS GAUNTANAMO PRISION"
So where did I find 45,000??
STARS & STRIPES MAGAZINE; https://www.stripes.com/branches/navy/2025-01-30/guantanamo-bay-immigrants-16650045.html
In 1994, for instance, President Bill Clinton resumed the previous administration’s use of the Guantánamo base for processing Haitian refugees and later ordered Cuban asylum seekers caught at sea to be held on the base. Later that same year, the facility’s migrant population totaled 45,000, according to a government report.

All those media outlets and not one mentions Clinton years. And the fact the population totaled 45,000. All at one time or maybe a yearly total? Could be. Don't blame ya for questioning me, media doing their Trump era selective reporting......again.
I was here for the Mariel boatlift in the 80's when Castro emptied his jails & allowed thousands more to leave the island & it was wild with boasts arriving at all hours of the day. Many of them ended up in our jails & soon we had the influx of coke with the Cocaine Cowboys & eventually they were also put in jail. For those who were stopped before they reached our shores, Guantanamo was the logical place to secure them. As far as the Haitians, they have been coming here for decades. There are pros & cons as to how the Clinton administration dealt with the unrest, poverty & Haitians fleeing their country in fear of their lives.
However, the 45k number kept in Guantanamo surprises me.
Trump is a moron and convicted criminal leader of the GOP
NO ONE WINS: Compared with any other major country, the United States has been extremely fortunate in its two immediate neighbors, Canada and Mexico. Now, incredibly, it is declaring economic war on both of them. This is a war no one can win, and from which tens of millions will lose.
Does anyone know why The Donald is doing this? It's a self inflicted gunshot wound to our economy.
His first foreign policy initiative is to attack our neighbors & our own citizens? Where's the logic?
Are you on the right taking The Donald literally yet?
This is insanity.
STUPIDITY:
MAGA: What I like best about Trump is no wars!
The Donald Day 13: “I’ve ordered military air strikes in Somalia.”
MAGA: Who's Somalia?
MAGA: Our lord and master will bring down food prices.
The Donald: I’m placing tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China.
And tonight at an NHL game in Ottawa, Canadians booed the US National Anthem.
Can you believe that?
I was surprised that DJT put the 10% on Canadian energy. if you audit both sides then 100%, we have a trade deficit with Canada but take away oil then its splitting hairs. He should've left oil alone but that's why people hate on the guy. He has a very unique way of negotiating business, always has been this way. I've had bosses like him and met numerous people both men and women just like DJT in my lifetime. There are more people in this world that are narcissistic than you realize, its only when you leave that bubble that you grew up in and try to live life in another part of the world do you realize how bipolar the left and the right are to each other in the US. we are not free in the US if someone on the right wins, but that person used to be a left voter. Trump was a democrat, till Obama put him on blast. It's what the left are doing to RFKjr and Tulsi now, the party cannot stand someone leaves. kind of reminds you of the church that tom cruise belongs to, you know the one that king of queen's wife was in and the 70s show Hyde belonged to.
