Just more proof Biden was smart to say we need to increase police funding before the election.

Yeah. The whole messy ordeal makes me think maybe they should think about speeding up the transition time between the election date and inauguration. They pry could speed up the process to the beginning of January. I'm not sure if whether trying a former president for crimes committed in office is "constitutional" but I've heard convincing cases on both sides. I personally don't think the framers believed that a public officer shouldn't be held accountable for any actions during their lame duck period. Calling it being unconstitutional as a "likely potentially correct" interpretation is stretching it. I'm sure Trump will be tried in either criminal or civil court as more information comes out. McConnell basically invited those lawsuits yesterday. Intent is difficult to prove but there might be enough evidence there. I agree that the House managers waited to deliver the articles until the new Senate was convened to avoid having to deal with McConnell and maybe unwillingly gave Republicans who acquitted their needed "out" by doing so. I still think that the whole impeachment trial was necessary though to prevent future behavior by politicians in similar positions. Having seven defectors from your own party should be enough of a deterrent.

I'm not surprised with that poster. I'm not really worried though because the headline "Republicans refuse to work on bill that will prevent cuts in medicare and farm aid" won't play well even with Republican voters.

I thought the House managers made a pretty good case through past comments, past tweets, showing him encouraging people to march on the Capitol building to stop the steal right before the incident, and comments made during the attack about fighting for Trump that he could be directly blamed for the insurrection on the capital building. All the senators knew it too. The case against him was MUCH stronger than the quid pro quo impeachment case. That's why you saw seven Republicans break rank which is unprecedented in modern times. Zero from Clinton's party voted to convict and only one did (Romney) on one count in Trump's first impeachment trial. I get that McConnell doesn't want to anger Trump's fervent base so him and other Senators used the convenient rationale (unconstitutional to convict a president who is out of office which is in itself a stretch considering he was in office when this happened). That way they didn't have to defend Trump's conduct. As far as Democrats not calling witnesses, they made the right move in not dragging this out another few months when it was clear Republican Senators weren't going to change their minds. They have an agenda they need to get to and an aid package is needed to keep the economy afloat during this pandemic. It will be more difficult now that the Republicans can scream deficit again.

The second most "bipartisan" impeachment in our country's history I believe behind Andrew Johnson. The technical reason of he's no longer a president had to be used by McConnell as a yes vote on acquittal for crying out loud. The usual political witch hunt argument couldn't even be used like it was in his first impeachment and Clinton's impeachment. Trump did manage to be the first president in four years to lose reelection and go from having the majority in the two houses to the minority since Hoover in '32. So Dems can thank him for that.

It's a pipe dream. He's a scout for the Panthers now so he has a job to get way from the wife and kids. I doubt he'd ever play for someone else if he did come back. Given his instincts and coverage skills he'll pry be a pretty good scout.

From the same article. This has me scared a tad.... I have faith there's at least 10 Republicans who would do the right thing if it came to that.... “Although Democrats swooped in to protect Medicare and other programs from significant cuts after Republicans used reconciliation to pass tax cuts for the wealthy, we need to be realistic that Republicans are less likely to do the same for us,” said one House Democratic aide, who asked to remain on background in order to candidly discuss the concerns. “Are we really going to find 10 Senate Republicans to prevent these cuts after they’ve found Jesus again on the national debt? Let’s be real,” the aide said in a statement. “There’s a good chance they will allow these cuts to happen and paint Democrats as the ones who are responsible since we have total power in Congress and the White House.”

He was the second gunman on the Grassy Knoll.

Hopefully enough Senate votes to make sure no lame duck president ever attempts this bs again. Most votes to convict a president ever I believe.

Right now since he was released. Start the Pegula jet watch.

Will they let him keep his Emmy in jail?

Both are top five franchise QB's so I'm fine with either. Both are winners (made the playoffs two of their first three seasons) who play with moxie and their team loves playing for them. I'll take Allen just because he seems to embody Buffalo more than Watson. Plus, Watson has taken more of a beating than Allen with 174 sacks in four seasons (Allen had 92 in three). It's just nice having the most vital part of a franchise secured.

If the salary cap is higher than expected then I would put the franchise tag on him and create cap space through cutting or restructuring contracts of less vital players. Gives us one more season to evaluate Edmunds and Milano. Hopefully the salary cap will jump significantly next year.

Reading more about how dysfunctional that organization has been since the Super Bowl victory I don't blame him. I could see the Colts with Frank Reich and that offensive line resurrecting his career.

Here's another crazy Brady stat. He lost two Super Bowls to this guy.

The "Karen's" you cite are about 5% of the population at most. You'll always have societal leaches but most people want to work. The stimulus checks are generous (and necessary to keep our economy afloat) but not permanent. How am I nearly positive at the very latest a year from now life will be back to as close as normal as pre pandemic? Schools and businesses fully open. No masks. People won't stand for it and politicians bend to the will of the people. It's that simple. People hate wearing masks. Younger people hate not being to be going out to the wee hours of the morning on the weekend. Religious people get a lot more out of in person worship than telewhatever. People miss being able to go to large parties and see their extended family. Post pandemic habits will be slower to change. It sucks right now but it will eventually get better.

It’s more they want Trump out of their hair for good but go on with your incoherent rant.

Because he keeps posting gifs that this thing is going to last forever. I figured any time before that would be good news to him.

Bingo. Most GOP senators would convict if there weren't personal political consequences if they did.

It's been more useful in keeping me warmer outside during this February deep freeze. Maybe because it's good news.

We had about 40 people at my aunt's house because she had a huge satellite dish and the game was blacked out locally. The memory of that 2nd half will last a lifetime.

It also paints Republican Senators who vote to acquit him as condoning the riots. The more video and images they show the worse it's going to look.

If Watson goes to any of the visiting teams then that's who they'll play. I'd go Saints, Cowboys, and Bills in that order of most likely as it stands right now.

We'll see next year when life will hopefully get back to normal. It's hard to draw any conclusions though as I'm guessing a lot of people who usually don't watch football but will attend Super Bowl parties that didn't this year didn't tune in to the game. Having said that, improve your damn halftime show. It was awful.

Two things are pry both true... -The team would've never made it to the Super Bowl without Brady coming to Tampa. The three players who scored a TD were recruited by Brady. -A game manager who doesn't make mistakes easily wins that Super Bowl and that's what Brady was. He was smart enough to go to a team that was just a few ingredients away (both on and off the field) and he went and provided those missing pieces. I can't minimize his accomplishment because the defense played really well.
