  1. I get all that but why is the FBI involved? I'll wager my life savings if my daughter's diary was lost or stolen, Federal law enforcement wouldn't have put any priority or assets on the case. Ashley is not a public official with security clearance in possession of national security secrets. What's the concern? Its another example of political privilege and protecting a powerful political figure from potentially harmful scrutiny. The concern isn't for her, its for her father.
  2. What I found telling and smart for both the team and the players was the Texans and Diggs re-worked his contract into a 1 year deal. Which effectively gets both parties what they want out of 2024. The Texans get a player motivated to not cause trouble or make a scene and play his best football because he's on a one year deal and auditioning for free agency in 2025 and Diggs, perhaps having another 1,000 yard season, gets his choice of destinations and one more big pay day after the 2024 season is over and free agency begins. If he stays with the Bills, assuming they draft a potential WR1 in the first round Diggs might have seen an even lesser role in the 2024 which would have lowered his value if the Bills cut him loose after the 2024 season.
  3. What we need is legal immigration of highly skilled people. Not illegal immigration of 10 million unskilled people dependent on public assistance from day one. One is a net positive to the economy the other is a drain of finite resource and funding.
  4. The Israeli's should be thankful they don't have Biden.
  5. I'm listening to comments by SC women's NCAA BB coach Dawn Staley on whether transgengers identifying as women should be allowed. She slowly and carefully responds "if you consider yourself a women you should be able to play". Riley Gaines called her a sellout. My question is what happened to feminism and the women's rights movement? What happened to fighting the patriarchy? What could be more toxic to women then men stealing their identities and opportunities? Sellouts? Yes. To their fellow women because they lack the guts to stand for each other. I might want to ask Ms. Staley and others with her view is if I consider myself to be a brain surgeon are you comfortable with me operating on you and replacing your real doctor?
  6. What's wild is a candidate like Haley crushed Biden (because he's highly unpopulsr and she isn't) in polls of the general election but she got stomped by Trump in the primaries who beats Biden by just a couple points. This election is about voters that hate one guy or the other or hate both.
  7. The epicenter was in Hunterdon county about 15 miles from me. At about 10:25 AM the house.shook like a helicopter was landing on the roof but no damage. An aftershock rolled through at 6 PM. As the shock was centered in a mostly white upper middle class area we can rule out racism. My theory is Trump has an earthquake device hidden at his Bedminster golf course. When they raided his Florida estate they were looking for the remote control to it. Or if no other cause can be identied, the Rusians did it. The fact the continents move and drift over time along major and minor fault lines that occasionally release energy and pressure in the form of earth tremors can be dismissed by those that "trust the science".
  8. I'm not sure what to make of this but it sounds like you punched me in the face and if I dare hit you back then you're making it sound like I started it.
  9. What raises my suspicions more than anything is the statistics of the numbers. This year so far, three statistically significant "beats" of consensus by what statisticians characterize as 5, 3, and 4 sigma. Two beats of such magnitude would be incredible but three in a row seems impossible. Has every professional job market expect that for decades nailed the jobs number every month lost their mojo? That would seem to be one logical conclusion unless you beleive the numbers are fake.
  10. I agree that CEO pay is way too high. Because, more or less, they get to decide how much they pay themselves. The corporate business structure is something the professional executive management class has been exploiting for a long time. But I disagree the economy is strong. I think its built on a house of cards. This economy is like a patient on life support. All their vital signs are in good shape but unplug them from the machines and well... you know. In the case of the economy that life support is trillions in debt being accumulated. Take away all that debt funding lots of unproductive activities and off the cliff we go.
  11. A lot of it is government jobs, 71K. And health care jobs are most likely funded by Medicare and Medicaid. Which is more government spending. Even for private insurers like UnitedHealth or WellPoint government programs like Medicare Advantage and Medicaid comprise the majority of their insurance business. Meanwhile, this administration is on track to run a 2024 fiscal deficit of around $4 trillion. Unless the prevailing wisdom no longer applies, the general rule is government deficits shrink or turn into surpluses in good economic times because tax receipts boom and social assistance and other support programs become less necessary. But all that's going in the other direction. I can't explain why that's happening in what many say are "good times" for the peasants.
  12. If NATO was dissolved when the Soviet Union was dissolved Russia would have done nothing. But you idiots lacking logical thinking skills won't be able to comprehend that alternative set of circumstances.
  13. I do too but most Americans take a cavalier attitude toward war because the two oceans have to this point isolated them from directly experiencing any harm short of shipping off on some overseas military adventure. But when China lands 200k troops in Mexico or the power station that supplies you in your comfort and safety gets taken out by some Russian or Chinese missile or a terror cell attack and you don't have any electricity for 6 months and your life is sent into total chaos you might at that point start thinking Ukraine joining NATO or unconditional military assistance to Isreal wern't such great ideas.
  14. Thing may be going from bad to worse as a regional conflict will also send oil prices to near $200 and open up a 2nd front for WW3.
  15. Don't worry. Everybody had a job in the former Soviet Union too. How'd that turn out? The key is what are they doing? Pretty much low skill, low productivity jobs which generates around $1 of GDP for every $3 of public and private additional debt. What business is sound that spends $3 to make $1? Only the magical thinking libs believe that's possible.
  16. You demonstrate expert ability at answering a question without providing an answer. You'd make an excellent white house press secretary.
  17. If you accept the premise of all these reports you can only conclude the Russian military is incapable of hitting any targets except apartment buildings, schools, hospitals, shopping districts, and other civilian assets while completely missing all military targets of any value. Which begs the question why the war isn't over?
  18. Panicked? Hardly. What are you going to do? Shout incorrect pronouns at me. I'm trembling with fear. Go back to your cult of inclusion where you and your fellow cult members take turns talking about how bad people hurt your feelings and made you cry. Once again this proves fences and walls work.
  19. To distract their audience from the truth about how much Biden sucks. Disagree with my assessment? List Joe's top 10 accomplishments.
  20. It's going to be interesting for CJ. He missed a couple games so his durability needs to be watched. And everyone's assuming no sophomore jinx and 1 year of film for defensive coordinators to work with won't lead to figuring out his tendencies and possible weakneses. But the set up for success looks to be in place
  21. Everything seems to point to a major distraction being removed. Addition by subtraction. You can't have a ball hog ragging on your QB during a game. I can see Allen forcing the ball Diggs way just to shut him up while the other receivers go through the motions on plays because they know the cry baby is going to get passified. Playing hockey we had a puck hog that never passed the puck and the coaches ignored the problem. Other players open for a shot or in better position to make a play began to understand the situation and just stopped skating. Why waste your energy. When he got moved down the bench our team became competitive. We'll see what happens with the Bills but I'm seeing this as a positive and I bet Josh has a sound full night of sleep tonight knowing the stress and strain of dealing with a diva of over.
  22. Off topic but sadly, there are lots of former Sabres that plain sucked here, got traded, released, or signed with another team that are playing good hockey elsewhere. Guys actually playing hard instead of floating and coasting like they did here
  23. Agree. The Bills went 6-1 to finish the regular season without getting much production from Diggs. So when I'm watching and listening to the experts issue dire warnings that after the trade the Bills have no clear #1 WR I"ll argue they didn't have one the last 1/2 of the regular season either. Either with or without Diggs they need a legit WR1.
  24. On ESPN NFL Live they're addressing the question why if Diggs developed a reputation for sideline disagreements in Buffalo would the Texans take a flyer on Diggs? And the answer was because strong leadership from HC Ryan's and QB CJ Stroud can keep Diggs in line. My take is why should anyone, coaches, management, other players have to devote valuable time and energy to keeping somebody in line? They'll professionals. Not children. But sadly some can't always maintain that level of behavior. Is the potential to upgrade their offense at the cost of creating potential distractions on and off the field? The results will say.
