The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Dope1: The reason why? Drones from Mexican cartels.

This is hilarious: it was a f*cking party balloon.

C.B.P. officials thought they were firing on a cartel drone, the people said, but it turned out to be a party balloon.

The entire operation was carried out without proper coordination with the F.A.A. And when they were caught being complete morons, the first thing they did was LIE ABOUT IT.

But sure, hire a Fox News guy to be your secretary of defense because he looks good on television.

The stupidest president in American history leading the stupidest administration in American history.
