    Yeesh.

    I consistently underestimate the malevolence of these people, but I still have to think they're too cowardly/larpy to actually execute someone.

    There is probably the odd psychopath in there that would, but I think for the majority of them, actually killing someone is a bit too real for them.

    They showed up armed, with zip ties, and seized the floors of Congress. How much more real does it need to get?

    I strolled over to the ag site. It's about like you would expect. Going from memory the general takes are that the Washington Post is garbage; the audio is not complete/has been edited to paint Trump in a bad light; the Democratic Party cheated, therefore, he is trying to 'find' illegal votes; the word 'find' is not the same as 'manufacture;' at least Trump is not a pedo/dementia sufferer/in bed with China; speaking of China, the Georgia SoS is bought and paid for by the CCP.

    Another day in ag alternate reality. Also, saw bt is contributing over there. He's giving them some hell.

    Join in on the fun lol

    While articles like this are fun, I am naturally skeptical of their sourcing. While I have no doubt that Trump would stoop to this, I can't imagine that he'd have the call with a bunch of people in the room. And I doubt the leak would be from the SoS's office because, you know, he doesn't want to die.

    Why would you doubt that he would have that call? He constantly says the quiet part out loud

    I can’t compare him to Nixon.  Cruz isn’t even a real person.  Much like how Trump is more a basket of negative traits than a human, Cruz is just Trump with more intelligence and way less charisma.  He’s like a real life version of the most over the top chickenshit weaselly movie or pro wrestling character you can imagine.  

    Watching him do and say anything to try to be President is like watching Gollum scheme to get back the ring.  It’s gross and pathetic and not fooling anyone in the slightest, yet he just keeps on doubling down.  I abhor political contributions, but I think I’m going to donate the max to his next Senate opponent.   It’s a disgrace that he holds public office.

    After watching Notre Dame look like a peewee team against Bama, I'm fully convince the schools who don't cheat are never going to win again. Notre Dame, even Texas, is not going to be able to regularly compete against $EC schools who perfected cheating from paying players, to pretend school, to steroids galore. If Texas is serious about competing it's going to have to play the game. Here's to hoping that the Sark hire and the assist coaches names are an indication that Texas is finally serious about playing the game on equal footing.

    We definitely do all of that and we still lose.

    Agreed overall. But Canelo possesses a very stellar defensive style when he needs to use it, and also has a rock-solid chin. GGG had the power to match, but essentially they were at a stalemate with both of them having strong-ass chins. Berlanga's would be getting tested for the first time, I assume. 

    Yea I think Canelo would just wear him out throughout the fight ultimately

    The ref missed a clear penalty on the Mane leg grab that denied us a goal. Once again this team gets completely fucked over by the officials.

    Everytime I hear a complaint about players going down easily this is the kinda stuff I think about. Unless you are English or hit the grass you are not winning a penalty

    Possibly.  I don't know if you followed it, but PA enacted Act 77 to broaden mail-in voting, it passed both houses with bipartisan majorities.  The PA Constitution, however, appears not to permit mail-in voting except for the truly absent.  So, contemporaneously, they initiated an amendment to the constitution commensurate with Act 77.    The problem is that the PA amendment process requires two votes in separate sessions of their lege, followed by a popular vote.  Only the first vote took place.

    So, it would seem that everyone in PA government concerned with the Election Code there should have known that it was on shaky constitutional footing.  Granted, neither Act 77 nor the constitutional amendment were seriously contested, but still.

    Question I’ve always had about mail in. If mail in voting is allowed for certain groups (elderly, disabled, etc.) is that not an equal protection violation? I’m obviously not a lawyer

    I mean what? Mike McCarthy may have had a bad falling out his last few years, but the dude won a SB, made the playoffs alot and won a lot of playoff games.  It's wasn't JUST Rodgers, just like it wasn't JUST Brees in NO or Brady in Baltimore.  Putting him as a "never-weres" is wrong as shit.

    But otherwise, spot on.

    No he fits. It was just Rodgers.
