Give billions in funding for healthcare for illegal aliens or we'll shut down the government, warns AOC.
Less than one week ago, it seemd the world had pivoted back on course after it was revealed the left-leaning, sexy-as-hell senator Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez aka AOC had been hittin’ the surf at New York’s famous Rockaway Beach.
Very good news in a strife-torn world.
As all surfers know, the more world leaders who surf the less likely the chance of wars.
The Duke famously promoted surfing as a path to global unity and peace saying, “The spirit of the sport is the same all over the world… It brings people together.”
Gerry Lopez said, “Surfing teaches humility and patience—imagine world leaders sharing a lineup.
Kelly Slater has often spoken about how surfing’s “shared stoke could solve half the world’s problems.”
What to make of, then, the position of Hillbilly Hammer JD Vance’s posit earlier today that a surfer, AOC, was contributing to a shutdown of the US government, a costly performative act, he says, that achieves little.
“To the American people who are watching, the reason your government is shut down at this very minute is because, despite the fact that the overwhelming majority of congressional Republicans and even a few moderate Democrats supported opening the government, the Chuck Schumer–AOC wing of the Democratic Party shut down the government because they said to us, we will open the government, but only if you give billions of funding for healthcare for illegal aliens.
“That’s a RIDICULOUS proposition.”
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), nonpartisan federal agency, estimates it gonna cost 200 billion to cover health costs for illegal aliens over the next decade.
Money well spent or squandered?
Team Hillbilly or Team surf?

It’s the way he talks, not so much what he has to say, that’s enjoyable.

This thread might offer some of the most entertaining posts in recent memory! I do love the disciples of BG!

Once again more lies for the gullible/ignorant. Truth – Undocumented immigrants (often referred to as “illegal aliens”) are not eligible for most federal healthcare programs in the United States, including full Medicaid, Medicare, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplace coverage. This restriction stems from the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), which limits federal benefits to “qualified” immigrants (e.g., lawful permanent residents after a waiting period) and U.S. citizens. Undocumented immigrants are classified as “not qualified” and thus ineligible for comprehensive federal health coverage.However, they can access limited federal support for emergency medical services, as required by law to prevent denial of life-saving care. Some states offer additional coverage using their own funds, but this is not federal healthcare.
They aren’t allowed to work, vote, or be in the country either so healthcare really is a non issue right?
Healthcare is an issue, but they are using this to deflect from the BS system that WE AMERICANS have to put up with. Healthcare is the biggest cause of bankruptcy for AMERICANS. One way to fix this easily – make every single member of congress to use the system that us plebes all have to use. All this other bs about illegals is smoke/mirrors, a fucking dog and pony show.
Great point. The corporatist have ruined medicine and the overall health world wide. And they have the politicians lobbied up to vote for dollars.
Nice to see that personal responsibility/accountability is still a key pillar of conservatism, held up by everyone from leadership to punditry to everyone else.
I started watching this Red Bull show on Lucas Chianca a few minute sago… Chumbo: Made for Big Wave surfing. First thing these mother fuckers do is show him and his wife having an anchor baby in what looks like Oxnard CA(recognize the apartments). And you wonder why there is a MAGA? Red Bull paying those Dr bills or am I?
Anchor babies are all the rage.
Plenty of that happening in these parts.
I’d probably do it too if I wasn’t old and shriveled.
Doesn’t Australia get sunlight like 350 days of the year, and all sorts of tide shifts and waves, for ocean-based energy? Plus wind whipping through everywhere? Wonder how much this dude stands to make on mineral rights for coal under his property.
If we could just extract team sexy out of team squanderer.
(too deep for the clones.)
Dems just keep kookin
EExtra Thumbs up
How so? Illegals are not eligible for federal dollars. Are you gullible or ignorant?
Cause they all got a thumb up their ass
Republican president, Republican controlled Senate and Congress. Biggest deficit in US history, government shutdown. All these guys know how to do is whinge
details lol
Projection.
Three Dems voted to pass the clean CR. (The exact CR bill voted on the last two times, just a different date). The other 43 insist on restoring the cuts to bring down the deficit you mention, with zero leverage. It seems they would rather give the keys to The Donald and Russ Vought so they can reshape the government without them.
In March, Schumer said a shutdown would be a “gift” to the White House. Indeed.

I’m calling Higgins, TC, and Rick.
Seems like a ridiculous proposition. Can it be fiscally sustainable to charge tax paying citizens for the health insurance for noncitizens? More over can a country that is in enormous debt afford any social programs at all? Will AOC wait her turn in the line up or will she become the back paddler I imagine her to be? If JD surfed it would be on a SUP, correct? I would take Schumer surfing never. Can’t wait for him to retire. But damn he is sexy when he wears his covid mask.
Illegals do not qualify for federal funding. Never have. They can get emergency treatment but they get zero in fed dollars. Once again you are being fed lies to stoke your anger.
Anger? At best I’m frustrated with government waste and life long politicians milking the system for their benefit. No anger to stoke. But Fed $$$ does end up in states that use it on social programs for noncitizens if they are homeless. I’m not necessarily against that. Feeding and housing the needy is generally a win. It’s just how long can we do these things with an unbalanced budget? Credit shouldn’t be used as free cash in my opinion, but that’s just me. Also I may have seen JD SUPing the point in Hanalei this morning.
But which states get the Fed money? It ain’t CA. They send way more than they get back. It’s all deflection from the real issue – our healthcare system sucks and we get screwed every fucking day. But it’s easy to just blame illegals.
If we play in their corrupt system they win. I have never paid for health insurance and I have a few on going health issues that take some care. The system sucks so I do what is best for me and my situation. I go to doctors that are interested in me getting well and I pay them. Like any other good service I count on. It has made me very thoughtful about my daily health and how I spend money. When I needed cancer treatment I paid cash. By doing that I received a 50% discount up front and I was able to ask to not be billed for anything I didn’t want or need like $40 toothpaste or $60 bed pans. The surgery and treatment ended up costing me $18k which was less than if I had paid 3 years of insurance plus the deductible. It is up to us all as individuals to save our hard earned to take care of our selfs and our neighbors. There has never been a place or time when the government has done that well. I give 10% of my income to help my community with their needs so my personal finances are very tight as far as spending on any thing unnecessary. I’m happy to do that. And yes CA does get fed funds that get used for social programs and yes it’s totally backwards because they do send more than they receive back to the fed. I say you can’t blame the illegals, we have to blame the people not willing to prosecute the law when it their job. I know that I can’t go into the EU, Australia, or New Zealand illegally with out paying the consequence. Why should the US be any different?
Derek is Rupert Murdoch and Nicole Kidmans love child
Why Nicole?
because he couldn’t afford Kate Fischer
Kate Fischer has better tiddies.

Yeah, she looks just like Dez

Just watch the South Park episode with him in it. Sums him up well. Guys not a Trump supporter, he’s a Vance supporter, nothing more, nothing less. Take away the beard and he’s the pudgy kid that got bullied in grade school.
and he will steal your bike

https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
speaking of South Park, that new episode where satans pregnant !!
“relax guy!”
Oh that’s right–he said it was Trump, who is America’s Hitler. Which I guess, though, makes Vance a Nazi, too.
You sound like you have Nazi Derangment Syndrome
You’ll be able to dob him in soon on “National Nark on your Neighbour” day.
You do realize the following are quotes from Vance himself?
-“I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole like Nixon who wouldn’t be that bad (and might even prove useful) or that he’s America’s Hitler”
-“never Trump guy”
-“never liked him
-“Mr. Trump is unfit for our nation’s highest office.”
-“This is sort of he said/she said, right? And at the end of the day, do you believe Donald Trump who always tells the truth? Just kidding, or do you believe that woman on the tape?”
Real stand up guy.
Dems make fascism seem cool.
Just sexy–you see AOC’s cleavage in that pic? Or is she too brown skinned for your tastes?
There are many AOC AI pics out there.

Stuck in the middle with an upvote for the flowers, and a downvote for the AI one.
Upvote the rack?
Dangerously sexy, tbh.
damn is she….”grab em by the fat butt?
Shes fully european, dude
Fuck this wannabe Nazi. And more importantly, RIP Jane Goodall.
JD is Trumps goo gobbler.
Went only lightly touched in the media, surprisingly.
Lot more coverage here in the States, thankfully. And of course all over Britain.
stay out of it then.
And why’s JD a Nazi? The Hillbilly Hamme movie so impressive. From the dirt of Middletown to the filth of Yale!
have it on good authority that Yale full of self important douchebags
Someone told me JD was mentored by this guy Peter Theil. Peter seems very chill and does not give off super villain vibes.
Theil is a quiet, undercover super villain. Think of a version of Elon Musk that isn’t totally full of himself.
Vance, on the other hand, is the dorky, fat kid that somehow found a way into a presidential administration. That way is fealty and full compliance with anything he is told to do. If he doesn’t, he will have to go back to being the fat kid that gets his lunch money taken from him daily.
Trace the lines from Peter Thiel to Palantir to JD Vance.
I find this article offensive without detailed pictures of AOC dancing like Mika Dora on her surfboard or lounging on the beach sunning herself. As for JD, let’s hope he never commits to a surfing photo op!
She’s Americas’ hottest cop.
I asked Grok to create a pic of AOC surfing. Here is the result https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
Instant classic.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Used with entire force of what it means, on behalf of many ancestors I never met because of Nazi fucks. History sadly appears to be repeating–or at least, certain people running the Federal Government right now and those advising these people, want it to repeat.
You’re joking, right?
you really think the Trump administration is equivelent to Hiter and the Nazi’s?
It’s you who buy into all this media propaganda and spread hatred and disinformation that is causing division, violence and murder.
ideological propaganda and political violence is at its core, fascism.
yeah the Nazi’s/Hitler were concerned with power and eradicating the Jews….the trump administration is about making money for the rich elite magas…c’mon get real….the hatred/disinformation /political violence…..donny said it well at kirky’s funeral….”I hate my opponents and do not with them well!”….
release the epstein files
$17 trillion in investment,LOL
300m people die from drug overdoses in the USA annually,LOL
ICE , has arrested 1/2 the amount of illegal immigrants that Obama did in 2012, for $16b…all were crims…..hardly any ICE deportees have records…with a $350B budget….etc…..lies more lies…..and division in the USA never seen before because of the cult maga

I fully believe Miller, Trump, Vance, et al would take us there if allowed. Yes. But way to project onto me and not being in the brainwashed cult.
Vance called Trump…the new hitler…..
We all know. Just like the snowflakes all know what Kirk said. They don’t care.
He’s such a fucking idiot.

let’s catch up.
you staying NS or Town?
FYI:
Many German cities and industrial regions had strong left-wing traditions, with workers’ councils, unions, and large SPD (Social Democratic Party) or KPD (Communist Party) followings.
Areas like Berlin’s working-class districts (e.g., Wedding, Neukölln), the Ruhr industrial region, Hamburg, and parts of Saxony were “red” bastions.
Nazi Strategy
The NSDAP deliberately organized rallies and marches in these left-wing areas during the late 1920s and early 1930s.
Goals included:
Provocation: forcing confrontations with Socialists and Communists.
Publicity: violence drew media attention, portraying Nazis as bold fighters against “Marxism.”
Territorial contestation: attempting to “break into” working-class neighborhoods and erode left dominance.
Notable Episodes
Berlin “Red” Districts (late 1920s–1932): Nazis repeatedly marched into Wedding and Neukölln, sparking violent street battles with the Communist Red Front Fighters’ League (RFB).
Altona Bloody Sunday (July 17, 1932): A major Nazi parade in the working-class district of Altona (near Hamburg), dominated by Communists. It led to shootings and 18 deaths, later exploited by the Nazis to justify emergency decrees.
Ruhr and Saxony: Industrial regions where rallies provoked clashes with leftist workers’ militias, reinforcing the Nazi image of battling for Germany’s future against “Bolshevism.”
Consequences
These confrontations escalated street violence during Weimar’s final years, contributing to the atmosphere of civil war.
Nazis leveraged the chaos to paint themselves as Germany’s only defense against Communist revolution.
The state often cracked down harder on the Communists than on the Nazis, indirectly helping Hitler’s movement.
—
⚡ In short: Nazi rallies in left-wing areas of Weimar Germany were not accidental—they were deliberate provocations to generate conflict, gain propaganda victories, and weaken Socialist/Communist control of urban working-class strongholds.
TLDR.
Sum it up Fins.
I already did.
Idiot.
powerful retort
be careful. you’re showing your IQ.
A total fucking idiot.
Whos she?
She probably helped raise your parents.
She sounds like a legend!!
🤣
outta nowhere!
Dude fuck haha.

Politics is funny
It’s the best! So much sexy! JD or AOC is a win win.
It’s just oozing !
Flying into DC this weekend for a wedding … will report on sightings of National Guardsmen and/or JD + AOC + DJT + Hegseth et al … although overlap with limited release T Swift film is causing Ms Rocks major heartburn, her minions scrambling to find open late night theater seats in the greater Georgetown area lol
do you get unsolicited Taylor Swift news from Ms Rocks? this is an absolute thing in many households as I understand
It’s like living with a Fox News reporter , except replace trump with Taylor s
ergo the handy stash of fireball, ha ha
pick your favorite bands that she either abhors and/or is supremely ambivalent about that still tour and/or release albums. every time she shares a piece of T. Swift news, just respond with something to the effect of, “that’s great, and did you also know that Strung Out is releasing a remix/remaster of Exile in Oblivion later this month!? A seminal album for the progression of their sound that is turning 20 this year!”
Do this at least 5 times and the unsolicited Taylor Swift news will cease.
ha, I’ll be on the couch in a week! She’s like a Jehovah’s Witness – no amount of deflection will distract her from her mission!
Washing Machine turning 30!
Xox
Circle jerk. Who’s the pivot man in that group??
Oh you’ll ache with pleasure.
will send pics !! Although more likely they’re all holed up with each other in hidden locations ‘negotiating’
Pack your quiver, and hand her the plastic card when you land and join “Team AL” in the Caribbean.. You can look back once tell her you are sorry, love… Don’t look back a second time. I’m catching a flight at 5pm. Mrs AL head is spinning. We have had two back to back CAT 4 storms right up the alley with uber onshore winds for days. I’m done had enough going surfing.. Only a wife of a surfer knows “Not STOKED for his SToKe!”
Nice!! Hope it’s good … PR?? Soup Bowls??
PR!!! Just got home, tons of swell and holding! Paid more in board bag fees than I did for my ticket. Frontier stuck it to me!
awesome, glad you scored!!
Thank god for the wave pool. Saved me from going over da edge
Have not surfed it yet. If I do I will be honored to kick out of my first wave in salutation to Chas’s first wave at Ke11y’s tub..
That would be a power move! The pool is actually amazing
