  1. Thomas Sowell gave us a 13 minute commentary with multiple explanations including as I recall, the importance of family structure, education, culture, support structures, and personal responsibility.

    Florida's First Congressional Seat

    This is less an election than a Social Science experiment and feels exactly like the third quarter of the Lions / Redskins game felt. I'm pretty much resigned to the idea that Gay Voldemort is going to win. One of my solid Republican colleagues at work is voting for he and none of us have any enthusiasm for Petronas. The real shock would be Petronas actually winning. Voldemort is everywhere and Petronas is invisible. And congrats to her if she pulls it off. She totally deserves it. I mean, I did my part for Petronas during early voting on Monday but in living here, I'm getting a front row seat to the sh*ttiest candidate ever running, running the worst campaign in US electoral politics history. Rooting for Jimmy Petronas to represent you in Congress is like rooting for Matt Millen to run your football team.

    Oh no! We can’t fit everything on your screen. Please rotate your device. ------- This is what I have instead of posting what I picked. Hopefully this is a one-time thing that fixes itself. I got a four today after starting with 4 yellows. Blew a 50/50 at the third guess.
  4. You can do worse than stealing dresses from Hillary. She has the top fashion designers in the world lining up to make stuff for her for free.
  5. Also, to avoid the paywall... here's what Goldberg wrote : https://archive.ph/2NUKC
  6. Why are we blaming Goldberg for this? He didn't hack his way in, he didn't share the information with the Houthis (or anyone else) until after the attack succeeded, he identified himself and removed himself from the chat. He did report on it but that's his job while self-censoring potentially the most secret data he claims he had access to. The Trump team needs to tighten up, looks like this was Michael Waltz's screw up. I'm not sure I'm seeing any government secrets here. The operation succeeded and everybody in the chat is saying privately the same stuff they say publicly.

    Big 10 is 8-0 in NCAA Tourney!

    Michigan and Michigan State are 1A and A1 and there's a 100-way tie for last place. Oregon, Wisconsin and Illinois didn't make it either. The dissolution of the PAC Ten is a sad situation. UCLA is a quality program with good tradition, except that time that their players went shopping in China expecting the same five finger discounts available to them in California. It turns out that teens growing up in California have no knowledge of how human beings behave in communities not run by leftoid retards.

    Big 10 is 8-0 in NCAA Tourney!

    The only two Big Ten teams that truly matter to me are Michigan and Michigan State. MSU just finished off New Mexico. It'd be cool if they could run into each other in the Elite Eight... although what happened last time they played...

  11. You're right. This plan sucks. What's your plan? Ideally, Ukraine kicks Russia out and regains all territorial integrity from before the war started. Unfortunately, the Ukraine counter-offensive to accomplish this stalled. After five + three years of hoping for this outcome, it doesn't look like its going to happen and each side is pretty much dug in at this point. ....thus the plan that sucks looks less sucky. i think though if Putin can only accomplish carving off 20% of Ukraine before getting so bogged down, invading an actual NATO ally would be off the table.

    Big 10 is 8-0 in NCAA Tourney!

    My mafic eight nall says they'll have seven or eight losses before this tourney is over. Looks like Wiscinsin will be the first to fall. They can occasionally get within four, but then the wheels come off again and its back to double digits again.

    This is really great for the Big Ten, obviously. We'll see how many of these teams can get into the Sweet 16.

    The democrat 2028 lineup

    It's been the biggest generator of Dem motivation and since Republicans aren't touching it at the national level, hopefully it'll fade, and they'll lose their one popular talking point.

    The democrat 2028 lineup

    Democrats don’t notice, nor care, about that sort of thing. She just has to point out to them that it’s racist, misogynistic, and sexist to vote for some else and they’ll fall in line.
