  1. I'm not a religious man but I'm starting to see that God is unhappy with Florida. Seriously I see that CNN is warning of potential growth to a 4 of 5. Scary stuff. and back to unserious. the X morons are discussing this as engineered storms by the deep state. They believe that but the concept of climate change is impossible to them.
  2. I assume that some folks are non-political and unaware of Elon’s antics. Hell I would bet a few percentage of Tesla buyers don’t even know Elon’s name. After all, how many Ford or GM buyers know the CEO or board chair name today? With those few people excluded, I agree with your assessment.
  3. @RDCanecutter Is keytruda an infusion service received at a clinic? If so, they could be why there isn’t a drug copay since your copay is actually an copay to your doctor for services. Are you paying high amounts to the doctor each year? This could be what SmartRx assist will assist with. Might be worth following through on this. Of course if you hit your overall out-of-pocket max regardless, it might not matter other than delaying the max threshold until later in the year. The only 0.001% chance that I would worry is could the process lead to the keytruda infusion being rejected by your insurance as not necessary based on new information. I’m not saying this could happen but I would ask the doctors business manager about their experience with smart Rx. Warning. I’m just some guy on the internet and don’t work in health insurance or with doctor offices so don’t take my thoughts as gospel. good luck on your health.
  4. DeSantis and Florida must be running scared about the abortion amendment. Perhaps polls showing they’re going to lose. However states legislatures often find methods to ignore public referendums especially if they feel voters have short memory.
  5. In fairness to this congressman, he saw a comment on a X post that stated that the Biden Admin is pumping up EV sales with taxpayers dollars. Perfectly reasonable to use that as evidence against the secretary of transportation in a hearing.
  6. The kamala podcast strategy is intriguing and even the Trump team dipped their toe in with an interview with Dave Ramsey. Couple thoughts. if this helps Kamala, it could be the death of Sunday morning and cable interviews. Or at least they will be deprioritized. these podcasts give the ability to show your human side with a long form format, if you can handle it. I have to wonder if Mark Cubans recent podcast interviews isn’t a coincidence. Call her daddy and Stern can both be sex filled talk but the hosts would stay away from that. Call her daddy can gotv with young, college aged women. Maybe stern can break down a few open minded non-college blue collar workers. Hes clear on his support of Dems so his loyal listeners at least tolerate that. Or change the channel
  7. How disgusting that an ex-military member gives a Purple Heart to a draft dodger. Even if Trump can’t stop the offer, a decent would refuse to take that from a vet.
  8. His crowds have admitted to reporters that they don’t care if he lies.
  9. Elons jumping display is perfect evidence that he doesn’t have a PR rep. Maybe he’s not used to a crowd cheering him, but any decent pr rep would have told him to just wave and shake trumps hand.
  10. Why isn’t Tillis calling out individuals who are lying about the situation and creating chaos? Hmmm. The only brave republicans are the ones who are retiring. There have been exceptions but they realize that it’s the end of their gop career.
  11. Exactly. We don’t need to seek out intellectual conferences here when gun/nazi paraphernalia shows just travel non-stop across Texas cities.
  12. I recall that around 2000 many GenX sports fan used Jim Rome terms and sayings. Dome, fish wrap, moellered, crack wagon, grill, jack, etc. Those ultimately ended when the next group up wanted to be unique.
  13. Recently went with a covid vaccine for the first time in over 2 years. Hearing about too many people getting covid and that this was the worst infection they’ve had.
  14. Right. my favorite is when the woman is yelling that they're hurting her as she violently twists her body back and forth. I doubt the cops go out of their way to hurt an older woman and the cuffs may be relatively loose if you let them do their job.
  15. years ago worked with this very conservative/libertarian type. He complained to no end about the inspection and smog check being unconstitutional. Of course, his pos car spewed smoke and I guessed he added a pint of oil per week. One day he shared a story that he spent a Saturday afternoon finding a state inspection station that didn't really check his car. I always wanted to add that he was the reason that we had these inspections not the rest of us but my goal was to avoid any unnecessary conversations with the guy.
  16. Story emphasizing your point and what a POS Ryan Walter is. Oklahoma legislature authorizes funds for the OK Education Dept to buy albuterol inhalers for every school. $250K. Only one company has the ability to fulfill the order and train teachers. Walters has been dragging his feet on the purchase. He has a history of not distributing the funds for the legislature purpose. But he somehow found millions to buy Bibles. The source of that money has been a mystery https://www.oklahoman.com/story/news/politics/government/2024/10/03/chuck-hall-ryan-walters-oklahoma-asthma-inhaler-funding/75498239007/
  17. from social media videos that I've seen, there are too many white women, especially older, who seem to believe that it's acceptable to struggle against being arrested. When a cop starts to put on the handcuffs, the handcuffs are going on with or without a struggle. There are plenty of other arrestees who would have accidentally fallen down a stairway in the aftermath of this arrest.
  18. Bidenomics looks to be working well. 16.6m jobs created under his watch, whereas Trump had a -2.9m. Note: Trump had 3 more months at this point.
  19. I for one can’t wait to see how much further Kyle falls. I don’t want to personally see it but I mean see it on this thread. signing autograph and posing for pics at a slip knot cover band festival seems low. Is that low?
  20. Polls show Tester behind when polls at roughly the same time in 2018 had him up by a few points. Tester ultimately won a close election. my bet is that most Montanans see/hear Tester and pretty much agree with him. But there’s the (D) after his name, so no.
  21. ‘88 grad here with the same experience and probably same textbook. We spent more time on the teapot dome scandal than anything after 1945. If the same logic applied today students probably get up to Watergate. You probably need to be 25+ years behind so that some parents don’t have strong aversion to the history being taught.
  22. Facts are not welcome with Trump World
  23. There was probably sketchy things during JFKs victory but there is zero consensus that the ‘60 election was stolen from Nixon. There are allegations of more votes than voters in Texas counties but those same counties had the same number of voters in ‘56 and ‘64. Or they point to stories of Chicago corpses voting for jfk but jfk won by 2 states. Illinois by itself didn’t matter.
