fair enough, I misread that as him arguing that it wasn't different and people were always crazy. That's the problem with text sometimes. I often think of Bushes letter to Clinton he left in the Oval office, classy and a sign of much different times. I agree. But in hindsight, it is apparent that t...

Like I said, on this issue (like most others), I would strongly prefer legislation to executive action.

that was nothing like this, not even comparable. I think twocoach was pointing to that time as the peak (in a good way) of things, not comparing the (bad) behaviors. fair enough, I misread that as him arguing that it wasn't different and people were always crazy.

just wonderful. Time machine? northern Canada? It's actually a little concerning. I certainly try not to talk about any politics around here, I do not think like most of this county. Could be an interesting year. pretty sure we peaked in the late 80s to late 90s. AKA when Democrats took the White H...

I guess since they have a rookie QB contract now they can do that. For me? I'd rather wait to see if my rookie showed signs of top 10 potential before that investment...bc if not, in todays NFL, you already have to start thinking about tear down with the Vikings pieces and the teams around them. I ...

I am trying to be positive that Biden is going to defeat Trump in November and that this orange shit stain on America's history will fade into our past but it is hard not to worry. We have problems that are being illuminated by Trump that weren't caused by Trump. They will remain once he is gone. M...

Biden poised to do more Trump things about immigration https://www.politico.com/news/2024/06/02/biden-executive-action-border-tuesday-00161176 Dunno what this gains him, especially when “it’s unclear how successful the proposed executive order will be, operationally or politically” It's only "...

Donald Trump in 2016, just three days before the election, while talking about Hillary Clinton said a 'sitting president under felony indictment' would create a constitutional crisis and that it would 'grind government to a halt'. Pfft, calling out rank hypocrisy is so 2020. They're not bothering t...

I suppose. I still don’t understand why Biden would pander to a stark raving mad right when it’s not like he’s gonna pick up any votes from them He's not pandering to a stark raving mad right. The issue is that a stark raving mad right is pulling all of our politics, including the middle two quarti...

This is an example of the consequences of the Overton window shifting to the right because the right side of our politics has gone stark raving mad.

June 1 New polling taken after the guilty verdict in former President Donald Trump’s Manhattan criminal trial shows that a majority of voters approve of the jury’s decision. One in ten GOP voters and one in four independent voters indicated they are less likely to vote for him. Majority of voters i...

I’m torn bc I do think the premise behind the NCAA was correct…they just clown show oil baron’d it. Once they are done we all know what kind of organization takes its place—one that’s purely about sports and money. It will be what some predicted in this thread—pro sports for younger adults borrowin...

people have lost their goddamn minds https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jun/02/far-right-mobilizing-biden-presidency I’d say thanks for posting, but that isn’t ringing right. Anyway. Again, the fact that these loons have the time, money, and freedom of expression to say and do these t...

it’s almost like they coulda afforded to offer these lower prices all along

Nope, Biden simply adjusted that giant “consumer prices” knob that we all know exists.

Sounds like ELECTION INTERFERENCE to me.

“Donald Trump is now a felon…His campaign chairman was a felon. So is his deputy campaign manager, his personal lawyer, his chief strategist, his national security adviser, his trade advisor, his foreign policy advisor…they’re all felons.”  That from Cowherd’s take? The whole thing was spot on.

…Commonly prohibited industries are banking, insurance, health care and real estate. Lawyers, teachers, psychologists and other professions that require a license are also off limits if you were convicted of a felony. Convictions on the federal and state level can be pardoned by the president or go...

On the plus side, at least he finally found an election he DID win overwhelmingly. Unanimously, even.

The stuff upper lip bravado - the notion that somehow Trump gained more votes than he lost yesterday - is really something. A felony conviction removes you from consideration for getting most basic entry level positions. I watched restaurant managers throw any application that denoted a felony conv...
