  1. Imagine the alternative universe where Matt Gaetz is AG and he's the one running point on all this Epstein stuff. I bet he would have said some interesting stuff about it. He would be constantly attacked for his underage trafficking investigation too, which would make this even more entertaining.
  2. I'll root for the team that's not actively protecting child rapists, thanks. The Dems don't care who is included in the potential friendly fire, and I'm happy to see that. Bill Clinton is definitely in there, and I would have no problem seeing him locked away for life. I would imagine other Dems in office are also going to be caught up in it, and quite a few Republicans too, many actively serving in this administration. I would expect the party of "morals" and "law and order" would want to see justice for the Epstein sex trafficking and rape victims, but as you can see above, 220 of them couldn't even bother to vote for a ceremonial nudge to make the criminals names public. We can't even get this administration to say there is an active investigation that would be impacted by the release. Instead it's all misdirection and pretending it doesn't exist, or it's a "hoax." It all just screams "I'm guilty" for Trump, and he should go down for it. Probably won't happen, but we can all dream.
  3. Odd, it would appear that 210 Dems 'in power' in the House want it released. Not that this resolution would be binding or anything anyways, but it is funny that the R's were able to find just 1 more vote than the Dems had present to shut this down, and then let some of their people not vote on it to save face or something. It's interesting who didn't vote for the R's, since every one of these people won their district easily. I wonder why they don't vote to release the files? What are they scared of? Trump/Bondi/Patel would ignore this resolution if it passed anyways. During a recent House vote on a procedural measure related to the release of Jeffrey Epstein files (Roll Call 195 on H. Res. 580), Nine Republicans abstained from voting: Andy Ogles (TN) Michael McCaul (TX) Thomas Massie (KY) Barry Loudermilk (GA) Wesley Hunt (TX) Morgan Lutrell (TX) Mark Green (TN) Monica De La Cruz (TX) Buddy Carter (GA)
  4. Didn't he call the pee tape a hoax?
  5. Could do Western vs Eastern hemisphere. That way you move the Canadians over to make it more balanced, and in case another Manu Ginobli shows up in the future.
  6. So then what was in the files that were on Bondi's desk a few months ago? Why make all these claims about the files only to have some of the most vocal critics appointed to the FBI then backtrack on those claims? Why did the Trump administration doctor the footage of Epstein's jail cell and try to present it as evidence? I would think a semi-normal person, such as yourself, would have the same questions and many more. It would appear to me, a normal guy who is not a fan of a child rapists, that this is a cover up. It seems that Trump himself does not want the files about all the child rapes and sex slavery released either. Why he doesn't want to release it is just a mystery we may never solve...
  7. Asked Google AI: No, the President cannot fire the Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair. The Fed Chair serves a fixed four-year term and is not removable by the president except "for cause," similar to other members of the Board of Governors. This "for cause" provision is meant to protect the Fed's independence from political interference. I guess they could drum up some sort of issue to create cause. I expect to see a release of the Epstein files in the near future, but with a Find&Replace done to swap Trump's name for Powell. Then fire him for being a kiddie diddler and kill 2 birds with 1 stone!
  8. I'm really surprised that Trump hasn't floated the idea of arresting Bill Clinton yet. Seems like that's where this is going. Or maybe he will attack Russia as a distraction. Either way, he's going to need a big story to make people forget that Epstein didn't kill himself, and that his DoJ releasing doctored footage of his jail cell only confirms it.
  9. oh look, another troglodyte is changing his tune...
  10. That was my first thought too. Also, why did it take this long to release this footage?
  11. Jessie's friends were top tier comedy on this show. There were so many hilarious interactions between them that I didn't quite appreciate on my first watch through. When Jessie gets his new house and is showing his friends where he's going to put everything, Combo says something like "Yeah! Girls cream up real nice for like, candles and shit." It's so weird and funny how someone like that thinks.
  12. He already hates the Yankees too!
  13. Yeah, we need him to be Mark Price or Steve Kerr on this championship team. Also need some injury luck, and hope KD is 100% in May/June for a deep playoff run. I also hope the MPJ for Cam swap for the Nuggets isn't as helpful as they think. Their defense and rebounding may drop off significantly with that change. The Nuggs and Thunder will be tough opponents, and if there's a way this team can get the #1 seed and let them play each other as the 2/3, that would be ideal.
  14. Did they ever get Phase 2?
  15. They won a World Series with Dusty as the skipper, but that does not make him a good manager.
  16. RFA is pretty much dead now, since there is little to no cap space. Players are now stuck with their team for that 5th year. They don't have much leverage to negotiate either. Probably best to do a 1 year deal and then hit free agency the next year.
  17. Oh yeah? With what team?
  18. Short comes up big!!!
  19. I think about it every day
  20. Lebron has to be traded for the Lakers to get anything out of him, but he has a NTC, and the amount of teams willing to take on his salary for 1 year is pretty limited. I don't think the Lakers will be better off without him next year, because they don't have the assets to trade him for someone transformational like Giannis. They are stuck with him for the foreseeable future. The best thing they could do is placate him, and have him go recruit cheap vets that want to play in LA. Chris Paul, Beal, Horford, Westbrook, Taj Gibson, etc. Lots of guys out there that could help this team make it through the regular season, while enjoying the lifestyle of being in LA.
  21. It still counts! We're number 1! We're number 1!
  22. Well if you want to feel good about something, here's a graph of all MLB teams WAR from players they drafted since 2012. Astros are doing pretty, pretty, prett-ay good!
  23. If it makes you feel better, the Dodgers were just swept by the Brewers.
