What three rosters were better? Just curious

Bump

You said “be willing to pay Americans and legal immigrants a living wage.” The left has run on this for years. It has been decreed to be communism.

Explaining Russiagate: Why the December 9th, 2016 Meeting Mattered: It’s not just what the Intelligence Community planned to say about Russian interference, it’s who would have seen the text. MATT TAIBBI In between all this, an important detail is being lost. Democrats are hammering an “apples and oranges” argument, saying documents showing intelligence officials planned a Presidential Daily Briefing on December 9th, 2016 that would say “Foreign adversaries did not use cyberattacks on election infrastructure to alter the US Presidential election outcome” and “We have no evidence of cyber manipulation of election infrastructure intended to alter results” were meaningless. As Himes put it, the fact that “Russians could not use cyber tools to mess with the voting infrastructure, the machines that tally our votes” was “true then, and it is true now.” Two things about this statement, disingenuous in multiple ways: One is a crucial fact left out of Saturday’s Racket article on the DNI releases. Had the intelligence community gone forward with a Presidential Daily Briefing that said Russia had not attacked infrastructure in a way “intended to alter results,” it would have been seen by a key audience: Donald Trump. Presidents-elect are entitled to read Presidential Daily Briefings. During the transition, Trump’s National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was already being read in, and would have seen the planned December 9th text downplaying Russian interference. “I would have seen it,” Flynn says now. “I was reading the PDBs at that point.” Asked yesterday if he thought that might have been a reason for holding the planned draft, Flynn said, “Very likely.” Second, the notion that Russia interfered with actual vote tallies was no fringe conspiracy theory then. It was widely believed by Democratic voters. This was almost certainly a consequence of a two stage process that began with the flood of news stories based on leaks from intelligence sources beginning on December 9th, 2016. These not only alleged Russia interfered to help Donald Trump in an abrupt about-face from pre-election stories, but focused heavily on Russian hacking. Within a week — by December 16th, 2016 — Hillary Clinton was publicly calling the election “unfair, not free, illegitimate,” adding, “Vladimir Putin himself directed the covert cyberattacks against our electoral system, against our democracy, apparently because he has a personal beef against me.” . . . Notwithstanding either the Himes comments (“This is Epstein all over again”) or Trump’s apocalyptic Guy Fawkes-themed Truth Social post, the meeting on December 9th that switched out a tepid PDB for a dramatic narrative about Russian interference to help Trump was hugely meaningful. It positioned Steele Dossier conclusions as mainstream news, set up Trump to be investigated by his own incoming FBI Director, and made sure the incoming administration did not see dissenting intelligence about Russian meddling. https://www.racket.news/p/explaining-russiagate-why-the-december? It was all bull####, and all the key figures knew it was from the beginning. .

I think there is a key difference between Levis and Josh. If anything, Josh's flaw early on was hyper correction. He would never make the same mistake twice. If he got called for grounding when he threw the ball out of bounds down field, he would then avoid throwing out of bounds (even when it would be legal) and throw a pick. He was constantly learning and working to improve. Levis, frustratingly, makes the same mistakes over and over.

Why throwback to an era where no one alive has seen them?

Oh, this is too good. 😂

It's Biden. First he destroyed gasoline prices now this. There is a big difference between an immigrant coming here to work his ass off doing jobs we wont do for lot less pay vs deporting them to another country for prison or enslavement. Your argument is beyond simplistic.

Man the Chiefs do a good job of paying everyone somehow. With Mahomes and Kelce, they are still able to give big deals to Smith, Taylor, Jones, Humphrey and now Karlaftis. They have top 10 value contracts at QB, TE, T, G, C, DE, DT...a few of them top 3.

Trubisky is so undervalued here. Hes a former top draft pick who needs no reps to be ready to play in a pinch. Hes played a ton and has seen lots of things in the NFL. He is going to be here for 10 years because he's the perfect backup to Josh Also Mike White is awful. Dude is tough as nails but he had 2 good games in 2021. He's right where he should be on the depth chart I love watching Levis play. He's sugar high Josh will none of the brilliance

First, you dodge my questions. I don't care if Republicans, or Democrats for that matter, won't do it. WIll my recommendations work or not? Second, I'm not a Republican. Third, there are already such work programs in place. And I'm confused. One one hand I'm hearing complaints about abusing illegals, aka deportation, and on the other advocating for employers to exploit illegals by paying below market wages to keep American industries running with illegals at below market wages. Which should we do? You're critiquing policy. I really don't care what politicians will or won't do. Their unwillingness to do something doesn't invalid my options. I care about what will or won't work. Will what I say work or not? Yes or No?

Oh so now we believe in supply and demand? Can we apply this to tariffs too? MAGA is staunchly against raising the minimum wage.

It’s wild how these MAGA loyalists won’t even stick to the approved talking points. Instead, they keep pushing narratives that end up implicating Trump and making his MAGA-aligned pedo defenders sad.

🤔🤢🤮 That’s disgusting… I hope he drinks sh!t coffee, then.

Your republican party would defeat any candidate that sought to increase legal immigration or sought to give legal status to workers already here. That's just a fact

So your theory is without illegal immigration basic industries can't function? Maybe consider the concept of using legal immigrants? Or be willing to pay Americans and legal immigrants a living wage rather than low-ball wages paid to exploited illegals. Options available here.

Ok, we are mediocre at best. Thanks for clearing that up.

The pants are tan because they probably wore burlap sacks back then. And the helmet should also be brown.

First time I was at Lincoln Financial for an Eagles game with the brother in laws, they were going to take the escalator up to their seats. I’m looking at the long as line just to get on it, and the empty ramp next to it, and just said I was going to take the ramp. It was an easy.

Meh, a lot of those same experts “recognized” the Bills were gonna take a significant step back last year and maybe even lose the division. Outside of a few select folks, most of the media is complete superficial analysis.
