right after taking oath there was a short video they had on the home page. It was badass. I don't see it up now.

Sure...hand over your heart and nothing like a Nazi salute...was this supposed to be funny? I am really hoping you aren't being serious?
It is all on CNN he threw his heart out to the crowd and it is being called a Nazi salute. They haven't given up that one yet.

Pretty sure @MPHSystems is referring to what Musk did after he put his hand over his heart when he put his arm straight out like Hitler did.

Well this is America, and English is the official language.
I get that 100%. But, it’s not like the main page is in English and Spanish. You have to go to another webpage to click a Spanish translation or another translation. Lots of sites have that. Some people are fluent in many languages, but read and comprehend better in the first language they learned. And, if it’s a staff position to run a translation page, you can replace that with AI if need be. I think the effort to remove that isn’t worth the energy.

Most sites can be translated using any web browser, if built correctly.
No need to keep an entirely separate site, which was occurring.

The longer we make it so people don't have to learn English the more we become divided . One Flag, One Language, one Country.

What part of assimilate do they not understand. They come here and refuse to learn the language, wave the flags of their mother country and chant "Fuck the USA". I have no problems with sending them all back. Back in the 1900's people came from Europe and they became American's. They worked their collective asses off and became contributing members of society. Not now. Where's the free shit??? is the standard question and our own stupid government is all too willing to give them everything instead of a free boot in the ass back across the border. Well that looks like it's finally going to change.

The late Dick Lamm illustrating point number one in his famous “8 steps to destroy America” speech.

"Here is how they do it," Lamm said: (First) ;"Turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bi-cultural country. History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. "The historical scholar Seymour Lipset put it this way: 'The histories of bilingual and bi-cultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy.' Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, and Corsicans."


Here’s the entire speech.
It’s quite famous and applicable even now more than way back then.
Every American should read the entire speech.

Actually, it's not. Unfortunately. Difficult to believe, I know.
While you are correct in that there is officially no official language here....

In what language was the Constitution, BoR, and other founding documents written? One can surmise, based on the fact that it wasn't fucking spanish, german, or french, that English is the official language to be spoken in the USA.

^^^ this 💯

I work with a guy who came here legally from Acapulco Mexico. When Trump ran against Hillary, I asked him who he was voting for, and he obviously said Hillary. I asked him, “ why are you voting for her?” he tells me the usual response, Trump is racist and doesn’t want to help the Mexicans. That I ask him, “ why did you come to this country?” he tells me well to live a better life. So then I try to explain to him Bernie, you are the textbook definition of what an immigrant should be. You came here, legally, you’ve got a good job and pay taxes, you bought a house, and now you’re putting your son through a Cal State university. It doesn’t get any better than that. So why would you show allegiance to a country that didn’t provide you with any of that, or want to bring more people here who don’t do what you’ve done and only to make it the same as where they came from?

He couldn‘t give me a real answer

I was looking at CNN Facebook page yesterday for a laugh. Everything was a Trump bash but the difference in 2025 is the majority of America doesn't give a F. Its the same small minority of libtards and media whining that will always have their heads buried in the sand. Can't fix stupid!

Keep this # handy at all times. I post it to every liberal anti-Trump post. They seem to love it.

To report undocumented immigrants, please call the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at 1-866-DHS-2-ICE to report suspicious activity.
