  1. Interesting conversation from The Bulwark podcast I just listened to. This is regarding Trump's failing health and at what point the cabinet should consider the 25th Amendment. Their conclusion was that they were more likely to "Weekend at Bernie's" the situation rather than replace him, but the REASON was surprising. About half of the cabinet cannot stand JD Vance and actually want to position themselves to be the heir apparent to lead the GOP and run for the White House. So they have no interest in elevating the competition to the post in any scenario. They mentioned people like Rubio and I think Noem (might have been someone else) who are in this group. I think that fear of MAGA is still part of the calculus, but I think a lot of us felt that Trump picked these people because they wouldn't 25th him out of loyalty when in reality they just want to cock block Vance. What a dysfunctional mess.
  2. https://www.thebulwark.com/p/special-election-tennesee-7th-democrats-aftyn-behn Good article on the state of that race and what lessons should be taken from it. Van Epps still likely to win but Democrats are hoping for a single digit loss.
  3. Additionally this is an R +10 district that also voted for Blackburn for Senate and the previous incumbent (Green) by more than 20 points. If by some miracle Behn wins the GOP is going to absolutely implode.
  4. They're going to lose to Michigan again.
  5. Yeah after learning more it's possible she even called in the hit.
  6. She just got thrown under the bus. Who gets fired first - her or Kash?
  7. Oh this is delicious: Nom nom nom
  8. Miami lost to Louisville at home and is ranked ahead of us. We are being punished for having 3 losses. It doesn’t matter who we lost to.
  9. We're about to go to war with Venezuela as a distraction from all the other shit. Keep in mind that the vast majority of Americans oppose this.
  10. He's gonna be the fall guy for the Epstein files not being released.
  11. I wonder if they are doubling down or if the one they chose to replace her told them to fuck off. Maybe both?
  12. anyway things are just going peachy at DOJ:
  13. I just noticed she's not wearing the cross again. Guess it was burning her skin.
  14. Is this the post you're referring to?
  15. Watching the replay the DB was just a bit late and the reason it wasn't picked (which would have been an incredible INT regardless) is because of the heat Arch put on that ball. He ripped it while on the move. It's an elite throw that most NFL QBs cannot make.
  16. Welcome to cap hell 49ers.
  17. I can't remember where I heard it (maybe The Bulwark) but they said that this was the cleanest outcome for Halligan - now they don't have to have any more hearings on the botched indictment. It's also an off-ramp where they could just blame the "deep state" and move on, but these are idiots so I expect them to keep digging the hole until it comes out in China.
