She had her role due to identity politics and served as a fairly unmemorable VP. Thanks to Biden's political suicide attempt to run in 2020, we ended up with Harris representing more of the same, when the voters were asking for change. Due to Biden's bungling, a proper vetting at a convention for the best candidate wasn't possible. Like I said, it was shit show, perhaps the worst run campaign in my lengthy lifetime. Obama was the right person at the right time. She was not.

I was watching one of the docs that are out on the Oklahoma City bombing, and they mentioned all the 3 letter government agencies with offices in the Murrah building. The ATF, FBI, SSA, HUD, DEA, and more. It struck me how much more effective Trump is at damaging/destroying/changing the "deep state" and the Federal government than Timothy McVeigh was. And then I realized, the Republican Party, as it stands today, is not the party of Lincoln. It's not the party of Reagan. It's the party of Timothy McVeigh. No one is being directly murdered in a dramatic fashion on TV with the bombing of a building, but there certainly are/will be human casualties (and likely a greater number) that result from the dismantling of things like USAID, NOAA and so on. Then it struck me how the 30th anniversary of the event just slid on by without anyone drawing those parallels let alone leading an audience to them. And this is just one opportunity of many. For all the opposition "leaders" willing to accept your donations pledging to "fight for democracy", none of them are willing to really put their ass on the line and take any risks for democracy. So that leads me to three possible conclusions. Either A) it's not that bad and democracy is not at stake, B) the Democratic Party is mostly full of cowards and/or accomplices in some ratio or C) that the Democratic Party in its current form is simply unequipped to be anything other than an ineffectual token opposition in this new political landscape. I think C is most likely correct, but whichever it is, Democrats have lost me. I'll keep my energy and resources in reserve until there's something more meaningful to get behind.

Yeah, that phrase is probably the most insulting phrase in our culture when WE say it to one another. For it to be effective the person saying it needs to meet certain qualifications. You must've clutched your pearls. Not everything is the N-word.

No it's not. It is: 1) the new normal 2) acceptable - even exciting - to the MAGAs (the crushing of all civil liberties tells you the Regime is truly making America Great Again) 3) acceptable - even exciting - for every single person who used to claim to be "libertarian" and was worried about an "overreaching federal government." This is exactly what we wanted, exactly what we voted for, and it's going exactly as promised. If you don't like it, you are an enemy of the Regime, and you best watch yourself. And don't even think of hiring an attorney....the Regime will go after him, too.

Texas Baseball 2025 - The Schwining tradition starts here...
Hookem2147 replied to petscii's topic in Baseball
I would sure hope we don’t have Galvan behind the plate tonight and I wouldn’t be opposed to a full day off. Also may not be a bad idea to give Mendoza and Rodriguez full days off to rest what they are dealing with/playing through. -

The Worst Trade in NBA History: Luka traded for AD
Eskimohorn replied to Derka's topic in Basketball
Back up the Brinks truck, these cowards didnt put Luka on the trading block because they had no way to explain it. No contract dispute or player dissatisfaction. No rebuild. I think Barkley got traded without his knowledge for Jeff Hornacek and some spares. But that was offseason. -
The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
Tuco replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
Slow response on this... I probably should have clarified: I don't think Elon is their biggest problem moving forward. There is a perception that Elon becoming toxic in the world of public opinion is why they are struggling. I think both of us are agreeing that the issues are much more fundamental, and more difficult to fix, than Elon's bad press. -
it's all disgusting

Just finished the 2nd season of Solo Leveling the other day. It's incredible. Blows season 1 out of the water.

HtownHorn replied to Macklemore's topic in Basketball
Brooks, VanVleet, and Green need to be gone after the season. Adams needs to be resigned. -
Alright democrats, here we go. This is something called an “opportunity”. Blast that shit everywhere. “Amazon was going to tell you how much extra taxes you’re paying because of Trump, before Trump begged Bezos to not do it.”

I have not selected and as far as I know you don't actually have to complete this process. Doing nothing just auto renews your current seats. It's only if you want to select parking.

So excited to go to the SEC with these Tennessee assholes
Not a Sock replied to TexasEd's topic in Football
Do you think we may see NIL get as lopsided as the peak days of the SEC bag game during the 2010’s? I imagine there will be a compounding effect with well run NIL organizations raising the quality and success of their teams which will then raise the NIL value of its players. -
