Well written but I call bulls!t. I think we're past this. It's interesting idea. Lots of good points. The problem is the group that's always making the plans isn't diverse at all. The plan to create this diverse group to call me up with these ideas is kinda what the house is. Problem is they are bought and paid for and lack any thought diversity.

A contractor friend (healthy, strong dude) called me yesterday to apologize for not getting back to me with a solar quote (significant state and fed tax breaks available) because he was in bed with Covid for 13 days. 3 weeks later says he's at 75%. I've never had an infection linger so long but at least I'm out of bed and doing limited exercise.

boater Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 ANTIFA aligned groups have the city of Atlanta under siege, mostly trying to stop construction of a police training center (isn't better police training what these type wanted?). Face the Nation is currently on and all they can refer to the agitators is "organized groups" ..they can't dare name who it is. It destroys the narrative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 SARASOTA, Fla. — A U.S. congressman from Florida who was seriously injured in a tree-trimming accident in Sarasota said Saturday he has been discharged from the hospital and is recovering at home. Rep. Greg Steube said in an evening tweet that he remains “endlessly blessed by the prayers and support from our friends, family, and community.” He added that his office “will provide updates next week on how my recovery will impact my return to Washington.” On Thursday a tweet posted to the congressman’s official profile said Steube had been “knocked approximately 25 feet down off a ladder while cutting tree limbs on his Sarasota property” the previous day. A separate tweet said then that he had spent the night in the ICU after sustaining several injuries that were serious but not life-threatening. An individual witnessed the fall and called 911, the account said. Steube also thanked staffers at Sarasota Memorial Hospital on Saturday “for the excellent care” he received. Steube, a Republican, was first elected to the House of Representatives in 2018 and just began his third term. He represents all of Sarasota and Charlotte counties and part of Lee County. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/florida-rep-steube-out-of-hospital-after-accident-at-home/2023/01/21/5983301a-99ff-11ed-a173-61e055ec24ef_story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if he gave his actual scratch golfer players a month with no dues. ummm, no. cheating is rampant in charity golf tournaments and is expected. Hell, "garbage" shots are sold to raise money but it's amazing that the group that actually wins these rarely wins objective measures like longest drive and closest to the hole. This was a club championship!! Cheating definitely not supposed to be a part. Wonder when he'll take Rick Reilly on his $100000 bet for a round with no handicap? this pos lessens every institution he touches.

B-Man Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 In the annals of the United States Congress, I doubt there has ever been a more appropriately named bill for a more appropriate and necessary reason than the bill proposed by Missouri Republican Senator Josh Hawley on Tuesday. The name of the bill, which seeks to prevent lawmakers and their spouses from trading stocks and other securities on which they have privileged information? The PELOSI Act. Priceless. Even more brilliant, the acronym “PELOSI” stands for the “Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act.” Is that top-shelf stuff, or what? And comedy gold to boot. Here’s Hawley: Members of Congress and their spouses shouldn’t be using their position to get rich on the stock market – today l’m introducing legislation to BAN stock trading & ownership by members of Congress. I call it the PELOSI Act. https://redstate.com/mike_miller/2023/01/25/the-pelosi-act-josh-hawley-introduces-bill-named-after-former-speaker-and-its-just-priceless-n693547 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you’re confusing Hamlin with Paul. That’s why he’s in bare feet when crossing Abbey Road. 😉 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
