  1. Past hour
  2. What the fuck are you yammering about?
  3. So you're telling me that, after all the Soros talk, it's MAGA that has been bussing in folks to their rallies????
  4. Ali Alexander delivered that testimony - I linked the source in the DT thread when I initially made the claim https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/ali-alexander-charlie-kirk-capitol-riot-transcript-b2252572.html (Here's the Independent's reporting)
  5. sound at scoot inn is consistently terrible.
  6. Damn. Christian author Frank Turek, who was with Charlie Kirk when he was assassinated, shared a heartbreaking testimony of what happened in those final moments: "Now, here's what Erika wants me to relate on Sunday. This is going to be the hard part, but maybe also the comforting part. Charlie Kirk was literally like a son to me. I have three sons. He was like my fourth son. My three sons are a little bit older than Charlie; he was like my fourth son. So when he was hit… if your son got hit, what would you do? What would you do? I got in the car… because if there was any way I could save him, I had to do something. I couldn’t just… “Okay, just take him, you guys got it.” So, they got him into the side of the car. It was an SUV. It was an SUV we took over, and I’m on one side—and there’s actually video of this, somebody was taking video of this—I’m on one side of the car, the right side, and they’re getting Charlie in. So, I run over to the other side, but the guy who was dragging him in is now blocking that entrance. So at that point, I run around to the back. I pop the top—the back gate open—and I jump in the back. The car lurches forward. Apparently, somebody jumped in the car, so the car lurches forward. So I almost fall out of the car or the SUV. Then I grab the thing and close it. And there’s five of us in the car now. Justin is driving, Dan is up front with the GPS, Rick has got him… Rick is on my left and Brian is there, and I’m coming over the back seat. And Charlie’s laid out in front… just right in front of me. And Charlie is so tall we can’t… we can’t close the door. We drove four miles… I don’t know, four-something miles… all the way to the hospital with the door open. To this day, I don’t know how Brian stayed in the car. Because we’re just… “Go, go, go, go, go!” We’re… you know, we’re trying to stop the bleeding. You saw it. And I’m yelling, “Come on, Charlie, come on, come on!” Meanwhile, my phone is still on. My son and daughter-in-law are hearing this whole thing. And his security team, again: Justin, Dan, Brian, and Rick. They loved Charlie. But they were much cooler than I— I mean, they’re just carrying out—they’re calmly, but they’re swiftly doing exactly what they were trained to do. Rick starts praying out loud. I’m praying out loud. We’re yelling, “Come on! Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!” My son’s hearing all this. And we’re doing the best we can to navigate traffic. This is not a highway—we’re on surface streets. And suddenly, there’s an ambulance coming toward us. And there was a conversation in the car—should we stop? We’re like, “No, no, just keep going, just keep going.” The doctor later said that was the right thing to do. Ambulance goes by us. We’re still heading to the hospital, trying to get there. At one point, somebody says, “Let’s get there in one piece!” because we’re just—we’re cutting through intersections, you know, we’re just beeping the horn. This is not an emergency vehicle. There’s no… there’s no lights, there’s none of this. And I go, “We’ve got to start CPR.” So I try and start that. Now… Charlie wasn’t there. His eyes were fixed. He wasn’t looking at me. He was looking past me, right into eternity. He was with Jesus already. He was killed instantly and felt absolutely no pain—that’s what I was told later. But of course, we had to try. And by the way, there was just nothing… nothing any of us could do about it. We were giving him CPR, but nothing was happening. It wasn’t like if we had better first aid or we had better medical facilities or we were faster to the hospital, we could have saved him. We couldn’t. So if that’s any comfort at all, Charlie didn’t suffer. He was gone. He was with Jesus. “Absent from the body, present with the Lord.” That’s where he was. Now it is true, when we got to the hospital, and they started working on him right away, they did get a pulse back. And so, Rick and I were just—everyone’s praying—we’re just praying for a miracle. We had a small sliver of hope. And the doctor later said that we got a pulse because Charlie was a very healthy man. But the shot was catastrophic. So 20 or 30 minutes later, the surgeon came out and said he was dead."
  7. I have a real simple question for the MAGAs. And show you have some balls and actually answer it now. If Trump suspends all or part of the 2026 midterm elections, and/or the 2028 presidential election, will you (a) be fine with it, (b) say you're not fine with it, but still support the admin, or (c) conclude that's out-of-bounds, and fully oppose the move, including no longer supporting the administration that ended elections in America? It's actually important that you go on the record, and you know it is.....because we're rapidly moving to the point where that action is more likely than not to take place.
  8. New turf next year means no grass for the foreseeable future...
  9. I think we aren't the people that we (non-MAGA) think that we are and there will be no large sit-ins or strikes. TikTok, Twitch, The Voice, MNF, and FoxNews will continue to be up and running and so there will be relatively few with a will to suffer pain for reasons that they view to be relatively abstract. They aren't undocumented immigrants, they aren't public figures speaking out against Trump, they aren't college professors being told that they can't teach the truth. In fact, it was time those eggheads learned that nothing is better than the good ole USofA. And now that I think about it, I liked the Redskins logo and I'm tired of pressing English on the ATM. I don't think a few entertainers taking different jobs would make any difference whatsoever.
  10. I don't know how you missed watching Simon. He was very clearly the best back after Baxter went out. Clark was marginal and didn't seem game ready. Not surprising given his injury and the time off.
  11. What just happened on that Mariners challenge with the second baseman being on the grass?
  12. That just goes to a generic voice mail.
  13. Blah blah blah South Austin's mom... blah blah blah.

  15. and then there's this which I just saw: https://edsource.org/2025/young-men-loneliness-crisis/741081
  16. Since I've seen this cited multiple times on this site, I wanted to verify it in some way. Thanks ChatGPT. Also: “I understand that Turning Point helped to coordinate bus transportation to the January 6th event. Who from Turning Point was responsible at a leadership level for coordinating that bus transportation to Washington, D.C., for that day?” “I am invoking my Fifth Amendment right.” GovInfo 🧾 Summary In the transcript, the committee shows emails and budget items that reference $250,000 for Turning Point Action for busing and promotion. GovInfo Kirk is asked a series of questions about how many buses his organization paid for, who organized them, etc. In all those questions, he invokes his Fifth Amendment protection. GovInfo One of the key pieces of evidence is a tweet (later deleted) in which Kirk said TPUSA and Students for Trump were “sending 80+ buses full of patriots to D.C. to fight for this President.”
  17. my wife grew up in the bay area and her experience with weather related phenomena is all fucked up as a result. Clouds in the sky? Must be a cold day. Going to rain? Must be a cold day. This morning, after raining overnight in LA for the first time in like 6 months, the sky was dark. Occasional sprinkles. Temp was like 82 degrees and it was as humid as I've ever felt it. As in, nice sticky layer of sweat from just getting into the car. Daughter comes downstairs for school with pants on, heavy rain coat, and rain boots. Wife is wearing a thick turtleneck sweater. Forecast called for .03 inches today. "Uhhh, its gonna be a miserably warm and humid day today." "Is it? Have you looked outside yet?" "Yes. I've also already walked the dog and she's in the corner over there panting" I say, as I wipe sweat from my brow with a kitchen towel.
  18. Yeah, I want to take our chances with loose cannon Neto and mean as a snake Connor Robertson. The staff praised the hell out of Robertson after his one start v OU. Give me some The Longest Yard attitude.
  19. Worth it. They put on a great show. Research Chemicals was particularly great.
