  1. I did a quick search - use the search function! - and couldn't find any mention of him other than by those you mention.
  2. Maybe Nancy Mace would take the job? Seems like the kind of sober-minded leader America needs. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14152809/Nancy-Mace-caught-gross-video-two-women-man.html Ahh, the New Conservative Libertines. Do as I say, not as I do.
  3. I agree. I thought the Kavanaugh thing was ridiculous. You can't ask a 50-something man to refute allegations about something an accuser said happened when he was 17. But this is different. Guy's own mother said he was out of control just about 7 years ago, when he was well into his 30s.
  4. My problem is I'm not immediately recognizing that as the same guy in the hostel photo. But ... I guess? Valedictorian of posh school. Ivy League student. There will be an interesting backstory here ...
  5. Appears likely they got the right guy. Excellent police work. Just superb. By the way, don't believe for a second that he just happened to be in a McDonald's in Altoona PA and that a McDonald's customer just happened to recognize him. I suspect he was on the radar for a day or two before he was actually nabbed.
  6. What "purity test?" I've mentioned before that we screen/background check people before appointing them to important jobs. What's different here?
  7. For about the tenth time now: Vanguard and Blackrock manage mutual funds and ETFs. There are probably tens of millions of investors in those funds. Saying that any of the underlying holdings of those funds/ETFs are "owned" by Vanguard or Blackrock is silly.
  8. Fair verdict. Ill-advised prosecution. Glad to see it.
  9. Right. And that one Super Bowl was with the legendary Stan Humphries at QB.
  10. Nearly every play ... either lineup off the line or false start. Or both on the same play.
  11. They showed it. Mahomes got him (Bosa)
  12. When the Broncos cut Perine I couldn't believe the Chiefs of all teams signed him. Valuable back on a good team.
  13. Borederline HOF QB, MVP receiver, best current receiver in the NFL.
  14. In other words: he was wrong.
  15. Congratulations again. I will add the phrase "CBS radio Trump's violent rally" so that you can amplify the power of your pet project. We may be up to 5 TBD search results now!
  16. Something very cynical about this. I think a review of history will reflect that the Venn diagrams for "ambitious" and "leader of men" intersect. And it is in that intersecting part that we should be looking for our cabinet heads. I did that because it is ancient history. But go ahead, throw it in there. He was in his 40s, so no, not excusable. The difference is he was elected (like Trump) despite the electorate's full awareness of his moral failings. Here we are talking about appointing someone from a vast universe of possible appointees.
  17. By the way, when you google "CBS radio Trump's violent rally" you get exactly two results. Both are for Two Bills Drive content posted by some character calling himself "Biden is Mentally Fit." Congrats. You are creating your own personal echosphere!
  18. Umm, maybe that your vaunted Alt Media isn't so wonderful after all?
  19. Thank you! I am smugly proud of belonging to this group. Not that there's anything wrong with belonging to the stupid, ugly, poorly educated group that constantly deals with self shame.
  20. Got that, all you alt media is more fair types? "Unarmed protester." Funny, because the mainstream media probably would have found room to note something like, "who shot Babbit as she was trying to crash through a locked door leading to the Speaker's chambers."
  21. It's a state prosecution. No presidential pardon power. Another ill-informed comment. What did you expect?
  22. So apparently we elected Ron Paul after all. It's the Triumph of the Loony Libertarians!
  23. I don't know what to think about this. Bad news: an Islamic rebel force threatens to take over a country. Good news: Iran's control over Syria is slipping, fast. Probably good news: Russia is preoccupied with Ukraine and can't do as much damage as it would like to do in other parts of the world. Probably Bad news: stability under a dictator beholden to Iran may be preferable to chaos in the region.
  24. "I have never had a drinking problem or have never abused women, but just in case I did I assure you I am now a changed man." So what's the age cut-off for "youthful indiscretion?" Gaetz and Hegseth in their mid-30s? RFK Jr. in his 50s? Trump in his 60s? I agree with you about drinking and military culture, but if you're an officer with career ambitions, you learn how to control yourself.
  25. He will be caught. They have a pretty good face shot of him. I would imagine that right now a combination of facial recognition software and tips from people who say they recognize him has given investigators a few good leads.
