The Godfather, Goodfellows...real live mob ties

Mike Johnson and the "Christian Republicans" are fundraising big time from this trial.

More evidence he's Putin's stooge. Connect the dots. Also why he said if he lost the 2016 election, Melania didn't matter per Cohen.

Says the guy who has never spent any time at all as a potential jury member.

The "love child" story is starting to come out...

Pitcher Spencer Strider went to Atlanta in the 4th round. None of the top 10 picks in the 2020 draft have really panned out. Top batters Kjerstad, Austin Martin, Nick Gonzalez, Robert Hassell III, Zac Veen, Patrick Bailey looks like he's having a decent start this season with a 1.1 WAR..675 OPS

There are a couple of former members of the old forum I'd love to see try to defend this. <caugh> (OMF)

We kind of went thru a similar phase when trying to plan family get togethers or reunions. We'd mention locations and dates and got crickets in return. Now it's we planning to be at X location on Y dates. If you want to join let us know by Z so we can make extra arrangements. If not, you're on your own

In this particular county the schools were renamed for Confederate "heroes" in 1959, it was part of the massive resistance movement over desegregation. It was done by racist assholes the (See the Byrd Machine) and is being done by a bunch of assholes now.

This is solid red, 90% white SW Va. they might as well be Kentucky or Tennessee A Virginia school board voted early Friday to reinstate the original Confederate names of two public schools. Why it matters: The Shenandoah County School Board's 5-1 vote in favor of the move appears to be the first such action since authorities began removing Confederate symbols from U.S. institutions and public spaces in 2020 following racial justice protests that erupted after the murder of George Floyd. State of play: The vote reverses the board's decision in 2020 to remove the local elementary and high schools' association with Civil War-era Confederate leaders Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee and Turner Ashby. Consequently, Mountain View High School will revert to being called Stonewall Jackson High School and Honey Run Elementary School will again be called Ashby-Lee Elementary School. https://www.axios.com/2024/05/10/virginia-school-board-vote-restore-confederate-names?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiospm&stream=top

Trump has already promised absolute immunity for police https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2024/trump-legal-argument-protection-president/ It's what he's wanted all along an absolute police state Along with a tax haven for billionaires

Stinky Don’s team is not very good at this

I want someone to propose a bill that any candidate for public office pass the standard citizenship test required of foreign residents to become citizens. State and local offices should also include a current events test

Once again Jaime Raskin schools a Republican who fell asleep during seventh grade government class.

Shouldn’t this open him up to another contempt charge since he lobbied hard for the previously unscheduled day off.

Trump fans aren't happy unless they're enraged about something

I actually took that test, did fairly well on it but not perfect. Surprisingly I had problems with finding words that began with F under a bit of a time constraint. No names, no animals no profanity. I had to chuckle and did ask the psychologist if that was the Trump Test

But can he stand in the background and stare adoringly at Trump ala Mike Pence (I think it's the same look he gives Mother)

We have a Marriott Vacation Club membership. The sales meetings are a pain, but we've learned how to endure them over the years. Just stick to your budget. They'll keep bring other offers, one time weekend deals and such, it's just a matter of saying no unless you find something you really enjoy. I'm not sure it's much cheaper than a motel for vacation but a one or two bedroom apt for several days is a significant upgrade especially if you use it off season. Hilton Head Nov-February is a great getaway. We've also done Spring Training in AZ that way as well as Park City, Ledson, UK (Hadrian's Wall), Paris and next week Vegas with a helicopter trip to the Grand Canyon. I haven't done the math, but I figure it's about the cost of buying an RV, without the upkeep and noisy neighbors right next to you They also check for ID

The resort companies probably team up with other companies all the time. Marriott offers all sorts of "experiences" from sporting events to concerts and even gourmet dinner events. I know Marriott is offering a couple of game events at Fenway. There is also some golf related PGA events being offered. It's all part of their marketing plan. I'm sure the UFL or some corporation would offer up a luxury box or suite in exchange for online promotion. Throw in a dinner and pre game sideline passes, not a big deal.

If it's Rubio who will be forced to move? Will Trump head back to NY or Rubio give up his Senate seat and force an interim election? That whole scenario could open up a whole new set of issues.

Recommend viewing. They do a good job exploring the roots of the Militia Movement and parallels of what is happening today
