  1. It'll probably involve giving Putin documents trump stole from the WH and took to Mar a Lago.
  2. Maybe we'll find out his plan in two weeks.
  3. NSIAP
  4. This board is much better with Ana on ignore. He seems very smart and maybe has something to say worth listening to. But instead he shitposts nonsense that he thinks makes him loo smart and above it all. While responding to every. single. post. Usually with a pithy few words of bullshit. And then y'all quote his shitposts.
  5. NSIAP
  6. Saw this driving today. The American flags are chefs kiss.
  7. Yeah, but the father daughter team had already been eliminated. They probably didn't know they were coming back until the last minute, after other, non-eliminated teams dropped out.
  8. In no particular order: Chicago NYC Burlington, VT Boulder, CO Not sure on the fifth. Maybe Moab, UT or San Francisco. But loved visiting both places, and wouldn't want to live in either one.
  9. Also the reason behind the civil disobedience matters. The truckers are engaging in civil disobedience over mask mandates and vaccines against a disease that's killed millions in the last two years during a pandemic, taking the position that a shot or a face mask are huge impositions on their freedumbs. And then whining like babies over there being consequences to civil disobedience. It's civil disobedience protesting police murdering citizens that the right believes should result in running people over and state sanctioned murder.
  10. Except she had the same coach as the gold and silver medalists. They knew if she won there would be no medal ceremony, and her medal would almost certainly be stripped anyway. So they told her to throw her performance so that her teammates could take gold and silver. The "winner's" reactions to winning Olympic gold make this clear. That said, I don't blame Valeiva. She's a kid. Who was abused by the adults in her life for some fake glory.
  11. Did she buckle under the pressure, though? It wouldn't surprise me at all if she was told to purposefully blow it so that her teammates could take gold and silver and they could have the medal ceremony go forward, and that's why her teammates were so upset after winning.
  12. Second Amendment is the only one that counts. Fourth Amendment is dead letter.
  13. Her parents and coaches are the bigger assholes. What they did is child abuse--giving heart medication to a 15 year old for competitive advantage, torpedoing her career and maybe her health long term. But the IOC absolutely shouldn't let Valieva compete in the figure skating. Just disgusting all around.
  14. She. And yeah. I was being conservative in my estimate. From the same WaPo article: Fourteen days after she arrived at the hospital, the group concluded it was time to move Diana to another machine called ECMO, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, in which the blood is pumped outside the body to give the lungs and heart a chance to rest. The decision to put a patient on ECMO is not taken lightly. The therapy, developed in the 1970s, is lifesaving in the right circumstances. But it can also lead to bleeding, stroke, seizure, blood clots and infection. Moreover, the equipment is scarce, the staffing intensive, and the treatment can run up hospital bills in the millions. Diana Crouch spent 139 days in the hospital with covid. (Family photo) At the beginning of the pandemic, many people were worried about rationing ventilators, but instead it’s been ECMO that has been in limited supply nationwide. “That is the tough part nobody wants to talk about,” Dezfulian said. “There are a limited number of pumps, and you make some decisions on the likelihood they will have a long life and a good life.”
  15. Never mind the health care costs for all the people she gave Covid to. According to the article, she was in Vegas, had symptoms there, still went to Cirque de Soleil, and then was admitted to a hospital after they returned to Texas, so presumably also got on a plane with Covid.
  16. Sure. So it's groovy to needlessly pay for well over $100k of healthcare for someone who could have avoided it with a shot that costs around $35. Never mind the health care workers in the ICU, who were already exhausted, but had to clean up her shit for weeks. I am completely out of sympathy.
  17. This. They went around Vegas, staying at a hotel, going to at least one show, presumably going to casinos and restaurants, and also presumably getting on a plane to get back to Houston. All while unvaccinated and she was sick, just not sick enough to be in the hospital yet. Fuck knows how many people's lives she put at risk. The rest of us presumably paid for her extremely expensive medical care which involved an ECMO. We'll presumably continue to pay for her medical care and disability since she suffered from a bunch of strokes as a result. I'm all out of sympathy. I hope those assholes continue to suffer for the rest of their lives.
  18. Or that MLK was arrested many, many times.
  19. Not that it matters, because the goal was always to get this to SCOTUS.
  20. Steal the 2024 election, and lock her up.
