I often wonder what the response would be if the Trump Administration actually reported to the American people the gross tariff and other trade disadvantages the American worker lived under prior to this ill presented tariff policy. We were abused. Getting to somewhere near a fair trade situation is desirable. I've spent a lot of time in Argentina, and I can't be more happy about their trajectory. But......There will be trouble ahead. That's almost a sure thing when you have decades of corruption and institutionalized cheating. Good luck to them.

And this administration made all these cuts before system upgrades were even in place. Classic Trump - gut it first, then pretend you're modernizing.

Deek, you're trying make a one-size-fits-all, definitive judgement. That's not the world we live in. Firstly, every situation is different... what if as a result of the incident, your daughter suffered PTSD, went sliding down that slope and struggled with trauma, shame, and depression every morning she woke up? What if she couldn't function and struggled to remain employed because she was driving an undependable junker because of her sporadic employment caused by her mental condition? How does your new car sound now? And of course that question disregards the myriad of related factors that make your question unanswerable including but not restricted to what kind of new car we're talking about... would you agree that your daughter buying a Nissan Versa would be different than her buying a Cadillac Celestique? While you're pondering your response, remember that the alleged victim in the Hairston case had to transfer from the University of Kentucky... Hairston remained at UK. BTW do you think she's enjoying the reprisal of this story? Secondly on a broad scale, in cases where an individual did in fact cause damage and harm to another, then I think it's appropriate for that person to pay a price to the victim... whatever that price is. From the standpoint of justice we would all hope that the punishment fits the crime but we would never know that, even in cases where we're directly involved. Only an omnipresent, omniscient, all-knowing, all-wise entity could answer the question(s) you're asking. I'm moving on...

"allowed their people"? vs what?

AP had great #'s in Minny, then mediocre on 6 subsequent teams (barring 1 season over 1000 in WAS). He became Frank Gore. Vikings were 1-4 in the playoffs in his time with them. 4 winning seasons out of 10 there. Not a game changer. Josh Allen is a far more valuable and therefore a much better pick than AP. It's not even debatable really....

There are countless physically gifted players just like him who wash out of the league for one reason or another. They are always given a bunch of chances and almost never actually turn it around and perform on the field.

So either the NWS was unprepared or red state leaders allowed their people to get flooded out is your bottom line. Makes sense.

The critical difference between Milei and Trump: Milei is a free trader, actively working to remove - not increase - tariffs.

Exactly. You'd think they'd remember COVID. Maybe they're too busy not smoking and vaping and whacking down a fifth of jack and working out in the fields now that all of the Mexicans are in hiding. But I doubt it.

When a maga is diagnosed with cancer and can’t afford treatment, he can die knowing that he owned the libs…

The 1998 NFC Championship game, was karma served up cold, for Gary Anderson! He was 1.000 for field goals, and PAT's in the regular season. -Kicks a clunker in the conference title game, and the Vikes folded. Think about Superbowl XXV, and imagine Anderson lining up, for that 47 yarder, with a few seconds left. Enough. You'll have to excuse me, as I have to go watch Buffalo '66, again....... 😅

Winner winner chicken dinner. We all pay more. Meanwhile, what happened to the 39.6% tax bracket? Evaporated. Well done, MAGA. And they won't get a thing done. Other than line the wallets of the oligarchs. Because they function only on outrage. Now that Riley Thomas or whatever that inconsequential swimmer is has tied for fourth instead of tied for fifth maybe they could get to some real work. Like finding ways not to close hospitals and screw up medical care for all of us.

There's a ton of hoax there. Inflation? Duh. That's what happens when someone (Trump) mismanages a pandemic, precipitates pent up demand, and then (still Trump, FYI), decides it's a good idea to give away free money. They're both complicit in the inflation mess, but the reality is that Trump caused a lot of the problem, Biden had it coming down, and not it's starting to perk up again because Trump decided it would be a good plan to evict gardeners and roofers while at the same time raising taxes on low income earners. Authoritarian? Might be the stupidest thing written on the internet today. And that's saying something. Coming from the guy who supported "lock her up," and now supports stripping due process, yanking American citizens off of streets by "law enforcement" in masks (last I checked, there's no reason to wear a mask if you're not doing anything wrong), and then opening a concentration camp in a swamp. Let's not forget the threats to deport the NYC mayoral nominee and Musk based on disagreements over politics. Historic implosion? That's rich. It's almost like it was a Great Depression, or a Great Recession. Hoax. Republicans make economic messes that Democrats clean up. RMBS. The COVID idiocy. And now we'll have to clean up this stupidity with immigration and tariffs. But you stick to your autopen conspiracies while you think that the guy who believes that George Washington used an airport has all of his marbles.

Bryan Cranston in Seinfeld or is he in too many episodes? The soup nazi is a great one as well

Brooke Shields was great in That 70s Show in the few episodes she was in

Talk about not understanding your own customer base.

he can go back to this though...

He's great there, but not really a "scene stealer"--he's a lead/primary character in that show. Has to be someone who has an arc in the life of a show or a season of it and is gone--but makes th absolute most of his/her appearances.

You don’t need to say “uninformed.” Doesn't sound like NOAA is fuming they were short staffed.

Why should "society at large" benefit from a victim of assault's suffering? That doesn't make any sense at all. How many civil payouts ever have been given away by the victim or their families? It's righteous compensation. "Society at large", which includes all the jock sniffers, hero worshippers, boosters, dirty universities and look the other way college town cops, clearly deserve nothing. The purpose of suing for money is to punish and inflict financial pain on the perp, obviously. If the victim can't take the perp's freon, they will seek to take the second most precious thing--his livelihood.....which, if allegations are true, he was allowed to earn because he was never charged by a pliant local police force (anyone remember the James Winston "investigation" at Florida State, or the serial sexual assault of the Ohio State wrestlers?) and University. The monetary award and the shame it piles on the perp (who would lose his status as well) is the best a victim could hope for.

Jesus, guns, babies and fake floods. This is maga https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/ar-AA1I2tzC

Danny Devito as Frank Reynolds in Sunny in Philadelphia I remember being locked down with Covid during the pandemic and still lost it laughing at this

Yea it’s called AI. And as the great Kristi Noem said, that’s exactly what they’re doing. Updating all the tech. Sucks. But they tell the private sector to learn to code all the time. I’m sure those temp jobs and early retirees will be fine. President District Court doesn’t decide the size of the tax payer expenses.

Apologies to those triggered by Fox News. It’s never my intention to be divisive.
