Joe Ferguson forever

Your cynicism and coldness certainly aren’t

Ah, once again the arbiter of morality. Nope, pro life also means anti death penalty. Thou shalt not kill is quite clear

The guy is the ultimate shyster. The real billionaires in the NFL had him right. And the big tree boys seem like nice, loyal MAGAs; bragging about stealing tools from the team they supposedly love.

yeah, he probably doesn't go to barbershop frequented by D's if he goes to a barber at all. KD? I actually go to a barber shop that is MAGA heavy.

I don't know any D wackos. As I said, the Ds I see at events like fundraisers or the picnic are hard working, reasonable and many are respected community leaders. Yes, they'll be a few ex hippies and free spirits present. There could be one or two people present who you might consider extremist based on their views but certainly not in a violent manner. I probably wouldn't know them.. As section c mentioned. It's a big tent. My wife is at a "Women for Kamala" dinner tonight driving with with a woman who owns several businesses in town. It's at a nice restaurant. There are some leftist extremists to be sure, mostly in the cities. But I would argue they are a much smaller percentage of our party than of yours.

you mean extremist parties? you think that's good. ugh.

While much of this is cultural, as much or more is socioeconomic. Poor whites are also often unmotivated. I think it’s less about race and more about multigenerational poverty.

you play bridge? Me too.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/trump-likens-doj-s-jan-6-filing-to-pre-election-special-counsel-report/ar-AA1r4MYf bad stuff in that report I'm guessing...

It's also a very wimpy statement from Mueller.

this? A Bill to Make provision about public service television; about the sustainability of, and programme-making by, C4C; about the name, remit, powers, governance and audit of S4C; about the regulation of television selection services; about the regulation of on-demand programme services; about the regulation of radio services; about the regulation of radio selection services; for the repeal of section 40 of the Crime and Courts Act 2013; for addressing deficiencies in broadcasting legislation arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union; and for connected purposes. I found another bill stopping foreign ownership in newspapers. https://www.engage.hoganlovells.com/knowledgeservices/news/uk-passes-media-act-2024-with-major-changes-to-uk-media-regulation none of this refers to print media.

what cultures may not? Any in particular?

met more than my share. over 70% R in 2022 congressional race.

win prob 99.5%. not changing channel

Avalanche. Stampede. What was the word they used in the Replacements?

Fabulous. This may be my first game in years where I turn off the Bills to watch another game because they're winning.

link?

cool. Another R with a conscience. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4894622-nebraska-republican-opposes-electoral-vote/

"get around British law". There are many scandalous British rags including those once owned by Maxwell and the Murdochs that get away with lying daily.

It's open invitation. Contributions encouraged.

Still too close for comfort. Today’s NYT poll shows us behind a couple points in Ga, Arizona and NC. This however, is encouraging. https://www.predictit.org/markets/detail/7456/Who-will-win-the-2024-US-presidential-election

The deep division is bad for business. We have a guy coming to fix our dryer. He’s made hisMAGA views clear. I’ve never engaged him but we have prez, senate and house signs in front of our driveway. Might pull them up rather than quarrel ( and get charged too much). Could also choose a different repairman. Never remembered it like this before trump

This is a very good point. The parties have changed so much that prior impressions are not valid. When I go to the annual D picnic it's a majority professionals. I'd say 80% are college educated. Basically, the "establishment" for the area. Just what the R party was when I grew up in Niagara County.

The evidence was overwhelming. The R's closed ranks. The proceedings were done in an official, democratic (small d) and public forum. Nothing was hidden or secret.

you can't put yourself in a D's mind anymore than I can understand a MAGA's. We are fundamentally and vastly different. If a D leader suggested an insurrection or fake elector scheme, he would be dead to me and every D I know.
