Well. I didn’t see this coming. But the man is standing up for Hollywood. Hollywood! I wish he could tweet - “Hollywood is making tremendous must see movies. In theaters and on streams. They feature the best actors and scripts. In no way are they concerned with DEI first and checking off this box and that box for this group of people or that. Only the best!” Sadly, he cannot tweet that.

Keon is our best blocking WR now. I have no idea what that means for what they’re thinking regarding how to use him and where he’ll primarily line up.

I see these all the time. You know what meme is over the top sacrilegious: Not one lib here said anything.

Bump Absolutely knew who I would NOT find in here.

There’s no outrage. It’s fake.

Love the sinner……and sin no more. Your LGTNIRRAWEPLUS and abortion supporting self wouldn’t understand. Ask Ted Lieu how he models true Catholicism everyday. And yes, I’m well aware of the anti Catholic strand of loser that exists in this country. They hate that part of the 1st amendment. Bake that cake brah. Don't ever call these people Catholics. That’s what’s insulting.

This is what happened to the Chiefs first pick Josh Simmons. People are saying they had a great draft. I just disagree. If the Bills needed a OT to protect Allen I’d be furious if we spent a 1st round pick on one with this injury. I feel terrible for the guy. And Casas. I’m a Yankee fan still hate injuries I don’t want to see anyone get hurt. If you want to draft him in the 3rd or 4th. Sure.

We are not their friends. Slap a 200% tariff on them. AfD classified as extreme-right by German intelligence Germany's Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party has been designated as right-wing extremist by the country's federal office for the protection of the constitution. "The ethnicity- and ancestry-based understanding of the people prevailing within the party is incompatible with the free democratic order," the domestic intelligence agency said in a statement. The German foreign ministry defended the decision after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the move "tyranny in disguise" and Vice-President JD Vance said the Berlin Wall was being rebuilt. The AfD came second in federal elections in February, winning a record 152 seats in the 630-seat parliament with 20.8% of the vote. Earlier this year Alice Weidel embraced the term "remigration", widely seen as meaning the mass deportation of people with a migrant background, although she rejected that definition. The AfD also attracted the support of leading figures in the Trump administration. Nine days before the election, US Vice-President JD Vance met Weidel in Munich and said there was no place for "firewalls", alleging that free speech was in retreat in Europe. Tech billionaire Elon Musk gave Weidel a long audience in a livestreamed chat on X and called on Germans to vote for the AfD. He then repeatedly posted his support for Weidel's party in the run-up to the election. On Friday JD Vance posted on X that "the AfD is the most popular party in Germany, and by far the most representative of East Germany. Now the bureaucrats try to destroy it." He also accused the "German establishment" of rebuilding the Berlin Wall - a reference to the barrier built in 1961 to separate East and West Berlin during the Cold War. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the decision taken by the German intelligence agency meant it had been given "new powers to surveil the opposition. That's not democracy - it's tyranny in disguise". This prompted a rare retort from the German Foreign Office. "This is democracy," it posted on X. "We have learnt from our history that rightwing extremism needs to be stopped." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwy6zk9wkrdo But Putin!

All the commies Obama and Biden hired - gone…. Trump plans major downsizing at U.S. spy agencies The CIA plans to cut 1,200 positions, along with thousands more from other parts of the U.S. intelligence The Trump administration is planning significant personnel cuts at the Central Intelligence Agency and other major U.S. spy units, downsizing the government’s most sensitive national security agencies, according to people familiar with the plans. The administration recently informed lawmakers on Capitol Hill that it intends to reduce the CIA’s workforce by about 1,200 personnel over several years and cut thousands more from other parts of the U.S. intelligence community, including at the National Security Agency, a highly secretive service that specializes in cryptology and global electronic espionage, a person familiar with the matter said. The person, like others interviewed, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive matters. The specifics of the planned cuts have not been previously reported. The CIA does not publicly disclose the size of its workforce, but it is believed to be about 22,000. It is unclear which parts of the spy agency would be most affected. The downsizing is happening even as CIA Director John Ratcliffe has pledged to target more agency resources on China and on cartels smuggling fentanyl and other synthetic drugs into the United States. https://archive.is/7T5r2

We have nothing in common with half the West. Unsustainable

Hahaha

And? Is it our fault the EU for example puts what - a 20 percent VAT on all our good sold there - they can argue all they want that it’s a tax that’s applied to their domestic goods equally. But those aren’t the free trade rules we play by. Why are they collecting the same percentage on US produced goods - the VAT is designed to help their own domestic producers due to the rebates they get along the supply chain. Our imported goods - hit their consumers directly with their 20 percent VAT. Our sales tax by state is on average 3-5 percent? Now you’ve been doing a lot of math today. How much of a percentage increase is that on our finished good in the EU vs their finished goods in America? And that’s why Team Trump used that “insane” formula they did. I get it. And we all have to remember - there is no rule that can apply with what they’re doing because it’s 2025 and the global economy is not the same as 1935. This is all theory. I don’t think it’s a magic fix. I don’t think it’s going to lead to the ridiculous price increases the “experts” claim they will lead to either. The costs we would like to increase are American real wages.

Baltimore and it isn’t close. Personally I think they’re the AFC favorite and I blame the Packers for passing on Starks.
