I deeply regret that 4 week period where I was rooting for Ted Cruz against Trump in the 2016 cycle. The ideal candidate: a person who is worried about how his grandkids (i.e., the future) will think about his legacy. You don't get too many of those.

Good. I'm glad this is a wedge issue. Trump's corruption, imperial excesses and vanity boiled down to the term: billion-dollar ballroom.

I want to level set this topic. Is Fetterman the way he is because he "took a journey" because of his illness or as a reaction to Oct7? Or is he this way because he was always this way? Connor Lamb would have been my preferred Senator there in every way.

Listening to that audiobook from Thomas Ricks about Churchill and Orwell. Orwell was downright despondent for having been an ardent socialist, gone off to Spain to fight to see that Stalin's totalitarian secret police had taken over all the goodwill of the "Revolution" and hunted him and his fellows in the Left harder than the fought the Franco regime. He then returns to Britain and endures the idiocy of appeasement and folly of the Colonel Blimpish failures of the first 2 years of the war. He knew that Stalin was not to be trusted at all...he came to appreciate Churchill for being willing to throw away the British class system in favor of national survival. Now I bring that up because Orwell was cursed with knowledge and among those whose curse was ignorance.

Baseball is a horrible Bitch goddess again.

I mean... time to rally again and get back on the barricades.

I think the map just had spaces for 9 boxes. Delhaize is prob in that second tier. The bulk of the stores are in the low countries with others in the Balkans and then these big Virginia stores apparently.

Netherlands Delhaize is the owner of a bunch of grocery chains around the world including Virginia local ones Giant Food and Food Lion. I shopped at a Food Lion in belgium so not sure why that isn't mapped.

Its all a joke to these clowns.

BURN THIS MUTHA DOWN

He hates America and thinks African Americans are not real citizens

If he returns and shoves...I'll be happiest. I'm just concerned this is designed to secure ticket sales for the rest of the year or some other financial reason.

Guess things are going great in the war w/Europe over Ukraine.

Guess our nat security team has its eye on the ball. By which I mean they definitely do not.

I want to believe he comes back and Willis Reed's the season but... the money involved means we should be looking at some shenanigans on the truth.
