This were reports from the ZDF. I mean you will have for shure own possibilities in the states to view how people react to Mr Trump. f.e. the election meetings.

You know ... i don't know what you were doing when you posted this, but keep doing it again, because in this post i understand you perfectly and you don't come across as confusing at all.

I guess the question here is why do you even live there if this is what you have to deal with?
I mean, i live in a blue state (Massachusetts) and in no way anyone deals with this type of ridiculnessnes.
I did my patio about 5 years ago, there was a crew of workers there with heavy machinery and jackhammers for about 2 months.
Did anyone pull a permit? No! I even asked them "Do we need a permit for this work?".
Nah - they said.
I even put a fence which my neighbour thanked me for it because he was planning on doing it himself.
Did we pull a permit for the fence?
Nope!

So why do you even want to deal with bureaucracy? Avoid it!
I mean this is the point of the government right? So it's small and it's not nosy.
Sounds like your Marshall there has a major chip on his shoulder so turn your town into population zero by leaving so the Marshall can talk to himself.

Not sure it it works to reply to both of you at once but here goes the try.

I thought it would be different moving from Austin out into the woods myself and it use to be but here is where they directed me when they explained these are Texas laws and apply to the entire state and so they apply to every county in Texas. Other than that my family also lives in Texas so moving is not an option because of where they also live and work. Other than this I don't know how else to explain it other that it wasn't this way when I was thirty but now it is. So yes even things like changing out my hot water heater to a tank-less one requires a permit. They did tell me that if a tree was dead or a sweetgum I could cut it down with out a permit as long as the tree service was bonded and insured if that make it better but if it's a native tree like a red oak they ask if it's close to the house and how many inches it is around because they don't want us removing them . Here's one of the links they gave me explaining some of it from Texas.gov itself. https://www.tdlr.texas.gov/ihb/042ihb.htm

This is crazy. These types of annoying restrictions are only in rich towns in Mass where the neighbors are also looking to pick a fight with you for any reason such as they don't like the tree that you put in the front yard because it "ruins the look of the neighborhood".

Many Europeans and others from outside the USA base their thoughts on the propaganda that fills their lives, just as a minority portion of Americans do.

@wolfwint, the USA is not a democracy, it is a Constitutional Republic, and Americans are probably the most free of everyone on the planet. That freedom was being lost. Trump is trying to restore it. It's a huge job. Those of us who want to remain free appreciate Trump's efforts.

Well, thank you for explanation.
I dont see me filled from propaganda.
But is this freedom for all citizens, or is it depend from the skincolour/religion/sex/political view?
According your constitution this should be for all citizens, right?

In the U.S. people of all skin colors have had equal rights under the law for a very long time.

Anything you've heard to the contrary is not true.

Republican or democrat. Doesn't matter. Regulations are put in place by un-elected bureaucrats(EPA,OSHA,.......) They are not law. And are worse than the law. And 99% of these un-elected bureaucrats are WOKE, liberal , freedom hating individuals.

Law~~Innocent until proven guilty.

Regulations~~GUILTY, pay up.

As far as I'm concerned, the Donald is free to do whatever he wants as long as it's legal and Constitutional. But he's not very bright, so what does he do? Right out of the gate he starts doing things by executive order that are neither legal nor Constitutional. He's got a majority of Republicans behind him in both the House and Senate. All he had to do was steadily introduce legislation and get it passed the right way. But, like I said, he's not very bright. Now he's shown his hand and is stirring up a hornet's nest of opposition from the public and from lawyers.

Most of the orders are simply undoing orders that Biden put in place. Why weren't you this concerned when Biden signed all his orders?

Pshaw. That's not what I see going on. How about the hostages being released just about the very moment Trump steps into the picture? That's just one thing and no sense in bringing up anything else if you can't digest that.

Maybe check out Poland, Hungary and other European countries that have had enough of Muslims entering their sovereign territory and are keeping them out with guns and barriers? Germany is also pretty fed up with having places where actual Germans will not go because it has turned into a Muslim ghetto.

I think you have an opinion that for some reason, you think carries more weight if you try to make it seem that all of Europe is in on it with you. :cautious:

People everywhere who don't relish the idea of a US under the thumb of Trump and Musk should pray that God will stop their efforts. God raised up Pharaoh in Egypt to show His power. Pharaoh got away with a lot of despicable things before God stepped in a put a stop to it. He can do the same thing today.

I can think of another well-known dictator a little closer to our own time. God allowed him to flourish for a season then put an end to him too.

Your analogy is ridiculous. Using facts from scripture to try and make it seem of value, just illustrates the stretch some people are willing to employ because they personally hate Trump.

I certainly have not and will not jump on the Trump is the be all and end all band wagon, but THANK GOD the Biden fiasco is over.

God is merciful. This country now recognizes only the 2 sexes that God Himself created and not the bizarre and evil alternatives allowed to flourish under whatever and whoever was actually running this country for the last 4 years. This country now has a border to the south and the north and the demonic rapists, murderers, thieves, child abusers and traffickers, sex deviants etc are being kicked out. To the point, ANYONE who has crossed over into this country and attempted to establish a life here, without the proper channels, even without being a criminal is, in fact, actually a criminal.

And that barely scratches the surface of how things are turning for the better. How is it that Americans, who supposedly actually have any regard to living here, can for one moment dismiss the changes for the better, may perhaps need to go and try living in one of the countries that all these illegals have come from.

God is still actually SOVEREIGN and he actually still does answer prayers. So so many suffered under the illegal covid mandates which is another thing that should not be forgotten.

One day all you ungrateful individuals may well get what it is you think you want. Remember this time and regret your choice(s)

No for shure this is not the case. As Christian in europe you are quit in minority.
And I also not saying that Trump is doing everything wrong. I see he is a Tool in Gods hand for His purpose. This world will not doing better, except during the Millennium.
Yes I agree, we have Muslim Ghetto, russian Ghetto and so on. My son is in the police service. It is Frustrating to catch the bad Ones and then let them go, because the law is not used according what the law says.
Thank you for your respond.
