@RarelyTolerated He's on a loser with that one, I think.

@WalterRothbard @realmattcarr Hi David, how many days to Christmas?

@HolyPostPodcast @philvischer I think Phil is making the valid point that you can't argue that foreign aid is bad because "the money should be spent here" when you really believe the government shouldn't be spending that money at all. Or did I misunderstand him?

@DefiyantlyFree @hakeemjeffries There are people in the UK who say you can't blame the Labor Party for anything because they've only been in power since July of last year. Trump has had 3 weeks.

@Jenny_1884 @elonmusk Oh dear, I think that saying about sledgehammers cracking nuts comes to mind.

@CWadeBaker @shanevanderhart @boxwinebabies @realmattcarr I made the point to Shane that while it may not be a crime (I don't know), it is a violation of the law which grants the government the right to certain sanctions. As I mentioned to Matt, I'm not sure how far government should go in those sanctions.

@seamuscmacaoidh @realmattcarr @Brent_Kilman True. I was allowed a longer H-1B than the allowable 6 years while my green card was being processed.

@shanevanderhart @realmattcarr @brentepling My point was that shoplifting and overstaying a visa are violations of a law, so in that respect they are similar, even if the enforcement mechanism and punishment are different.

When the Labour Party had style.

@DouglasCarswell Hate to dent the enthusiasm of y'all but do your homework, particularly about the medical care.

@DouglasCarswell To the enthusiastic Brits out there, check out the medical care. One big operation can bankrupt you without decent insurance.

@cassisnouveau @DouglasCarswell That's a good point. I'm on the hook for about $1500 for cataract surgery. And I have good insurance.

@ThePhilRivers1 @DouglasCarswell I went back to the UK in January in 2020. I was wet and cold and I loved it.

@DouglasCarswell What was that percentage of the UK that would have voted for Harris?

@TheNorfolkLion NC is good. We're red (just).

@cenkuygur Now that should be something liberals and conservatives agree on.

@realmattcarr @brentepling And no, I wouldn't advocate for 19 years for stealing a loaf of bread. Punishment should fit crime.

@Matt_VickersMP Does that smirk on her face come naturally or did she have to practice?

@jmhorp Is USAID established by an act of Congress or by presidential executive order?
