Recession is upon us - disastrous economic data
Tommy Callahan replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
LMAO. Did you mean that. Equity is you sharing your moms house with homeless, no matter if your couch surfing the basement or not. Cause the dems are running on Supply side, not demand side. Huge stimuluses to control and create sectors. picking and choosing. Almost all for the fortune 500 and PACS that get them in power. Demand side is lower taxes and lower regulation. putting the power of the economy in people's hands. you kinda proved my point. -
Democrat Convention 2024 (Chicago)
Starr-Bills replied to B-Man's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Back in the 80’s in high school we had a guest speaker from the USSR, come speak to us. He said the same thing, almost word for word. (Is it fair money controls politics) money is the problem. it’s a valid criticism of the current system. Which has been made millions of times worse since Reagan (huge tax cuts to the wealthy & elimination of the freedom doctrine) and especially citizens united and the huge unchecked growth in PAC’s) note they use a portion of these tax cuts to fund these pacs and own their politicians so they get huge returns on the investments. so you should support candidates who want to fix citizens united and tax the wealth more instead of whining about it. It’s good that you care, but you seem to be on the wrong side, no shame the propaganda is tremendous. (Note I voted for Bernie in the primary) -
You raise a great point about the SDPD and the SDSU police. I believe they withheld vital information from the Bills and the league when the Bills and league were doing their usual due diligence prior to the draft and your explanation about the PAC-12 and the potential revenue infusion makes a ton of sense now.
-
If anything, folks like @dorquemada should be mad at San Diego St University and the local SD Police. This "story" had been out there for MONTHS before the ***** hit the fan with the Bills. SDSU was on the verge of being asked to join the PAC-12 and didnt want any bad publicity about their football team. Had SDSU/SDPD not tried so hard to squelch the investigation/story, then more likely, the police would have completed their investigation and everything would have been wrapped by draft time, let alone training camp. Instead, they tried to ignore it to make it go away in the pursuit of more TV money, which only dragged it out longer for both the girl and Araiza. Could have cleared his name much sooner, but they were afraid to investigate just in case it was true. Disgusting on all levels there.

Coach Prime and mini Prime are nuts
That's No Moon replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in College Football
Is he though? He beat up on the SWAC East and lost 2 straight bowl games to MEAC schools. He was able to outrecruit that level of program and then he brought several of those players to Colorado including his kids. Last year they were more competitive against the bottom echelon of the PAC-12 but they got stomped by Washington and Oregon and needing to beat a bad Washington St. to keep bowl eligibility alive they no-showed and got stomped again. He's doing a better job of recruiting than his predecessor certainly, but IDK if that constitutes doing a "great" job. Particularly when you consider how many of the old players he got rid of and how many of his new recruits came in during the hype of year one. It wasn't a typical year one where he recruited freshmen and you're waiting for them to grow with this year's recruits etc. He straight up poached whoever he could get his hands on and that got him 4 wins. Will they be better this year? Maybe. They certainly have a weaker schedule which will help them. -
Harris misinformation campaign on Google
The Frankish Reich replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Answer: there isn't any. Harris campaign and Harris supporting PACs paid for those sponsored links. Did I like Google better before the proliferation of sponsored links? Yes. Is this the new world of search? Yes. -
Harris misinformation campaign on Google
The Frankish Reich replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Proof that campaigns and affiliated PACs raise more money than they know what to do with, planting silly altered headline sponsored links on Google. -
Democrat Convention 2024 (Chicago)
Tommy Callahan replied to B-Man's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
What. She was already chosen over the phone. The convention is just for show. How much you think is being spent on her AstroTurf campaign? 5b. 50b? 2020 was 15 billion. Not counting duel PACs that drive wedge topics https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2021/02/2020-cycle-cost-14p4-billion-doubling-16/ -
It's odd as they are on the receiving end of insane/record amount of fortune 500 monetary and PR support. And directly benefit them with state spending to the same companies and PACs..
-
So a super pac paid an 'influencer' I thought you guys supported citizens united? What about Elmo using his $44Billion dollar social media platform or his super pac running a voter data mining operation? What's the big deal again? Pot meet kettle

No *****. Massive stimulus that ends up at the fortune 500 and shady PACs.. that then turn around 100% the paycheck.

Looks like Musk created a PAC that targets Trump voters in swing states and tricks them into thinking they registered to vote when they actually had not. How an Elon Musk PAC is using voter data to help Trump beat Harris in 2024 election “The website says it will help the viewer register to vote. But once a user clicks “Register to Vote,” the experience he or she will have can be very different, depending on where they live. If a user lives in a state that is not considered competitive in the presidential election, like California or Wyoming for example, they’ll be prompted to enter their email addresses and zip code and then directed quickly to a voter registration page for their state, or back to the original sign up section. But for users who enter a zip code that indicates they live in a battleground state, like Pennsylvania or Georgia, the process is very different. Rather than be directed to their state’s voter registration page, they instead are directed to a highly detailed personal information form, prompted to enter their address, cell phone number, and age. If they agree to submit all that, the system still does not steer them to a voter registration page. Instead, it shows them a “thank you” page. So that person who wanted help registering to vote? In the end, they got no help at all registering. But they did hand over priceless personal data to a political operation.”

The rich can fund PACs that push wedge topics. But time and time again. It's the economy, silly. And it's sucking for a lot of people -
Tax and spend (to fortune 500 and PACs isn't working for the majority of people ..... One of the reasons blue states lead the nation in net migration out of them.

Welp. If all the PAC puppets, team blue cultist, people that enjoyed the Olympics opening ceremony hate him. That alone is telling. -
I'm old enough to remember when Harris received about $100 million *after* Biden dropped about. For those who are fewer than a couple of days old, like apparently Big Blitz here, had it been someone else, the Biden-Harris money could have been converted into a Super PAC and everything earned for the non-Harris candidate would be in their new campaign coiffeurs. As far as Republican scandals go, after 34 felony convictions, being found guilty of sexual assault, huge judgements for defamations, having to shut down a charity due to stealing from kids with cancer, allegations of raping a 13-year old who looked like his daughter, being buddy-buddy with Epstein, serious allegations of money laundering, self-evident violations of the emoluments clause, and the lyingest liar who ever lied as the three-time GOP nominee... I'm not sure *any* allegation against a Republican would actually do anything.
