    The Schumer Shutdown

    in Politics, Polls, and Pundits

    Posted

    I have to question the Democrats' strategy here, since they've put themselves in a very difficult position.

     

    If they'd signed off on a QR, I think it's obvious that the Republicans would have to 100% own the end of the supplemental Obamacare subsidies. Now? Well, it's kind of a muddle in the eyes of the average low-information voter.

     

    I think that's where we're headed, and I still think we'll see very significant blowback from some of the red state members of the House and Senate.

    Is it free market to take a $20B U.S. taxpayer bailout?

    At least they got the China soybean contract while our farmers got…..

    So much winning

    Milei's "dollarization" plan has gone nowhere.

    I'm glad his party won, because the alternative was worse.

    But at best it's Two Cheers for Javier.

    We're about 160 years into the experiment to breed a criminal population to dispossess Americans

    Hmm, 1865 ... I wonder what happened then.

     

    Perhaps more accurate to say we're about 406 years into the experiment to forcibly import African workers for the enrichment of your so-called "Americans?"

    If Olave can’t be had then get Shaheed

     

    at the very least he has legit top speed to concern defenses. One would hope he can generate more separation than Keon Coleman

    Don't sleep on Devaughn Vele. Maybe the Saints want to move one of the starters and give Vele a chance, but right now it looks like they don't value him. He's the one I'd want.

    Haha! I give the prize of worst of all time to Marangi. Marangi had the benefit of handing the ball off to arguably the greatest RB of all time (he's certainly in top five) and an excellent line. Indeed, the whole electric company played pretty much every game that season (Joe D, Reggie McKenzie, Mike Montler, Dave Foley, Paul Seymour, and Donnie Green) and OJ led the league in rushing (1,503 yards in 14 games). And Bobby Chandler was a great player at that moment in time.

     

    Considering the relative contexts, I think you gotta give the prize to Marangi: a 35.3 percent completion rate, 7 TDs, 16 INTs, an 8.7 percent sack rate, and a 30.8 rating.  Peterman's two ratings were 38.4 and 30.7, but he was on low-talent squads (especially 2018).   

    Too bad there wasn't anything like TBD back then. I was a kid, but I remember some Bills fans saying things like "I think Marangi could be a good one." 

    He really was that bad. The QBR for "good" QBs in that era was much lower, but Fergy had his best (injury-shortened) QBR that same season: 90.0. And Marangi put up a 30.8 with the same offense. Just horrible.

    I watched it! I was 9 at the time. It was a thanksgiving day game and while he was unstoppable, the Bills lost because they were rolling with the worst QB in franchise history, Gary Marangi. Marangi was 4 for 21 for 29 yards, a pick and 1-2 lost fumbles. Greg Landry had a Joe Montana-like day in comparison: 8 of 20 for 143 yards, 2 TDs, and a pick. That Bills team was TERRIBLE, mostly because Fergy missed the entire second half of the season. 

    It somehow is a weird source of pride for me that my Bills have had both Nathan Peterman and Gary Marangi under center. #1 and #2 worst NFL QBs of all time (although Peterman getting garbage starts is ruining that)

    Right.

    Trump said as much when asked about Comey. Something like "if he's guilty, he's guilty, if not, then he's not." 

    Which is of course not the standard the Department of Justice uses. Under DOJ guidelines, you don't bring a prosecution on a coin flip chance of winning. You bring it only if you are confident that a jury will find guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

    Just. Imagine. If. This. Was. Hunter. Biden.

    Despite being a lawyer who went to a top law school, Hunter Biden went about this whole thing in a clumsy way.

    Here's my unsolicited legal advice, from an ordinary country lawyer:

     

    1. Set up the Biden Company, LLC, with Joseph R. Biden getting 10% of all revenues.

    2. Publicly state that although Joseph R. Biden, 46th President of the United States, will play no role in the affairs of the Biden Company, LLC.

    3. Have Hunter Biden, on behalf of Biden Company, LLC, enter into various contracts with foreign companies, foreign nationals, and other companies that have official business with the Government of the United States. Set aside 10% of the contract revenues for the Big Guy.

     

    Legal! Ethical!!

    When I built my house as the GC, yes, zero illegal labor was used...

     

    I don't use hotels for a number of reasons, illegal labor being one of them...

     

    I don't use a mechanic that is here illegally...

     

    I don't go to diners or restaurants, same reasons, plus I am a superior cook...

     

    Diners and restaurants are a waste of money...

     

    The fact that you could not care less who is here illegally seems to be your stance as long as you benefit from it...

     

    Admirable...

     

    Like I said, slavery would be right up your alley...

     

     

    You sound like a fun guy.

    Arguing about the meaning of religion is as old as time. Your view on immigration is not the message I read in The Evangelist or hear from the Pope. 

    Maybe we should ask that Calvinist Minister who isn't ruling out stoning of adulterers.

     

    https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/09/opinion/doug-wilson-america-religion-theocracy.html

     

    Would Trump be subject to stoning, or just his various mistresses? I'll need to ask him.

    Profiles in Cowardice.

    When she's sworn in, and when Mike Johnson sees fit to bring the House back to Washington, there will be a vote. 

    A simple one: a nonbinding resolution calling on the President to release the Epstein files. She will be the vote that causes the resolution to pass. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) resolution.

    That's all. A largely symbolic move. But an important one: get your Republican House Rep go on the record. Release the Epstein files, Yes or No. 

    And Mike Johnson is terrified. Yes means crossing Trump. No means you've got a lot of explaining to do to your district.

    Yes or No.

    Are you pro-Trump and pro-pedophile? Or are you pro-transparency and anti-pedophile. What a horrific choice you have to make to serve under Trump's rule.
