The Frankish Reich

Hmm, fight back against what? Against ... TRIMMING STATE SUBSIDIES TO FARMERS! Fight the good fight for CONTINUED SOCIALISM. Way to tell 'em, Comrade B-Man.

I read the WSJ story. They use normal rigorous journalistic standards, requiring corroboration and an editor's approval. They'd be sued if they didn't. No one's suing. I also read Musk's reply. First of all, I don't care if he's used illegal substances. But he does hold government contracts and associated security clearances, so at least in theory Uncle Sam is supposed to care. Musk's response: - I've been drug tested for three years and haven't failed But do drug screens test for ketamine for recreational use (he's prescribed it, so he'd test positive anyway)? For LSD? No. For shrooms? No. I don't even believe the latter two can be tested for. In other words, no "I have not used LSD, shrooms, or ketamine (for recreational use) since my college days" denial. Read between the lines. An admission.

I actually listened to the oral argument. The judges did what appellate judges do - they ask questions aimed at poking holes in an argument, and it's fair to say that Trump's attorney had no good answer to some of their questions.

I'm listening to the oral argument in the federal appeals court in DC "presidential immunity" claim. Trump is going to lose. At least 2 judges have Trump's attorney - a good attorney - twisted into a knot.

Who is the Egg Man? "I am the egg man" has been interpreted as referring to Humpty Dumpty (who appears in John's beloved "Alice in Wonderland" books). Eric Burden, a popular singer/musician and a close friend of John, has claimed that he was "the egg man," and that the lyric refers to a certain sexual act Eric used to perform with women. (Eric says he would crack eggs over naked women's bodies and that John witnessed him doing it one night.)

Then why is Trump not running on his greatest success, Operation Warp Speed?

More like Semolina Pilchard if you ask me.

Exactly. And in our summer home in Orchard Park, we held them to 20. That's 34 points in 2 games against the newest Offense of the Future, a team that averaged over 29 points per game.

Cite? Medical expenses was Elizabeth Warren's theory, which was subsequently shown to be wrong.

I'm not saying Biden "deserves a free pass." I'm saying that this form of argument is not persuasive to any rational person. In other words, urging the Administration to cut off the flow of public benefits, and then decrying the resulting rise in bankruptcies.

Last year: Isn't it about time we stopped all those special COVID payments, eviction moratoriums, student loan forbearance, etc? This year: Hey, look, bankruptcy filings are up! It must be Biden's fault!!

Is this the right thread for one of those idiotic Trump History memes?

And they look pretty low class too. - Donald J. Trump

True. He has his own gravitational force that is unlikely to be impacted by a silly thing like wind.

If I'm a special teams coach, I'm listening to the analytics guys and telling Harty "if it's gonna bounce behind the 10, just let it roll or you'll never return a punt again for us." But sometimes a player with special skills knows that he needs to try to make a play to change the way the game is headed. That's what Harty did!

We did dominate the Dolphins in both games this year. Just check the total yardage/TOP.

Did the 9/11 hijackers give up when Zacarias Moussaoui was arrested by INS before the big day? - Sean McDermott

Agreed. Dungy on the Peacock post-game called out Eli Apple for giving up on the play. Thankfully Sherfield didn't!

Me: LET IT BOUNCE, YOU IDIOT!! Me 3 seconds later: I LOVE YOU, HARTY!!!

Ouch. Depends what the trend line is starting next season.

Total yards - Bills 364, Phins 242

You can still go next weekend.

Funny how a bunch of guys go down on a natural turf field and nobody says "it's the turf"

We will definitely win the 2nd half today and all 4 quarters next weekend
