Exactly , I use to answer election polling calls in the past . Now I have NOMOROBO (VOIP) and let the call go to voicemail if I don't recognize the caller ID info. Too much fraud and telemarketers today.

Due to the US national debt I can agree with getting out of the Paris Accord. We should error on the side of caution and do what we can afford for cleaner air and water.

Tulsi Gabbard makes fans of Trump supporters in New Hampshire Gabbard sprinkles her stump speech with nods to unity and talks about how she wants to build a bridge between the parties. She regularly attacks both Democratic and Republican orthodoxy, particularly on foreign policy, and casts herself as someone who understands the system but wants to disrupt it, an argument that drew voters to Trump four years ago. The congresswoman decries the tenor of politics -- "hyper partisan divisiveness getting in the way of progress," she said this week -- and, when asked about impeaching Trump, Gabbard expressed skepticism. https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/13/politics/tulsi-gabbard-new-hampshire/index.html As a Independent who likes to see bipartisan compromise , I like her views. Her poll numbers are so low now , so maybe a VP candidate.

Dawson Knox at his pro day for Ole Miss he ran a reported 4.57. Apr 26, 2019 At the NFL Combine, Duke Williams ran a 4.72 in the 40-yard dash Not sure which one is better at contested passes or who is sure handed. It would be nice to have both tall targets on the field.

If they claim executive privilege it will look like they have something to hide in this specific case.

I'm not talking about Russia , just Ukraine and John Bolton . Trump was legally elected and should not be attempted overthrow. I would welcome any truth, honestly.

D.R. Honest question, have you absorbed at all the massive lie that's been revealed re Trump/Russia yet? A lie pushed by the very same people who are pushing impeachment? If so, does that give you any pause to consider the possibility that they're full of Schiff? ALF Bolton Objected to Ukraine Pressure Campaign, Calling Giuliani ‘a Hand Grenade' The effort to pressure Ukraine for political help provoked a heated confrontation inside the White House last summer that so alarmed John R. Bolton, then the national security adviser, that he told an aide to alert White House lawyers, House investigators were told on Monday. Mr. Bolton got into a tense exchange on July 10 with Gordon D. Sondland, the Trump donor turned ambassador to the European Union, who was working with Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, to press Ukraine to investigate Democrats, according to three people who heard the testimony. The aide, Fiona Hill, testified that Mr. Bolton told her to notify the chief lawyer for the National Security Council about a rogue effort by Mr. Sondland, Mr. Giuliani and Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, according to the people familiar with the testimony. “I am not part of whatever drug deal Sondland and Mulvaney are cooking up,” Mr. Bolton, a Yale-trained lawyer, told Ms. Hill to tell White House lawyers, according to two people at the deposition. (Another person in the room initially said Mr. Bolton referred to Mr. Giuliani and Mr. Mulvaney, but two others said he cited Mr. Sondland. It was not the first time Mr. Bolton expressed grave concerns to Ms. Hill about the campaign being run by Mr. Giuliani. “Giuliani’s a hand grenade who’s going to blow everybody up,” Ms. Hill quoted Mr. Bolton as saying during an earlier conversation. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/14/us/politics/bolton-giuliani-fiona-hill-testimony.html

Fair enough as long as John Bolton , Mick Mulvaney and Rudy Giuliani testify

I hope they can protect Allen better then against the Ravens. I would put Bates in as a blocking TE. A big body as a FB next to Allen to pass protect. Yep the Steeler D has me concerned.

Friday the 13th is more fitting

That settles it , Brexit it is . Not sure how Scotland and Ireland will work out though.

I have to admit that really sums up why Trump is so popular with his base, well done ?

Many American Jews are worried Trump's decision to define Judaism as a nationality and not just a religion will do far more harm than good Halie Soifer, Executive Director at the Jewish Democratic Council of America, said Tuesday that Trump's executive order represented the "height of hypocrisy." "If President Trump truly wanted to address the scourge of anti-Semitism he helped to create, he would accept responsibility for his role emboldening white nationalism, perpetuating anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, and repeating stereotypes that have led to violence targeting Jews," she said in a statement. "Instead, President Trump continues to view Israel and anti-Semitism solely through a political lens, which he attempts to use to his political advantage." https://www.businessinsider.com/american-jews-response-trump-executive-order-judaism-as-nationality-2019-12

OK so why can't MBS allow protected humanitarian aid to Yemen for the starving and disaster medical crisis ?

I don't like what KSA is doing to Yemen with US military equipment. I know it's against Iran but the people there it's a major disaster .
