  1. A judge denies the Justice Department’s request to unseal Epstein grand jury transcripts in Florida. Image Jeffrey Epstein appeared in court in West Palm Beach, Fla., in 2008.Credit...Uma Sanghvi/Palm Beach Post, via Associated Press A federal judge in Florida on Wednesday denied a request from the Trump administration to release grand jury transcripts from an investigation into the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, stymying efforts by President Trump to dispel a storm of criticism from many of his supporters. The quick denial came in response to a request by the government last week asking the court to unseal those documents and to transfer the case to New York, where Mr. Epstein was indicted after a grand jury investigation in 2019. In its request, the Justice Department cited “extensive public interest” and “transparency to the American public.” Mr. Trump and his subordinates, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, have come under enormous pressure to release further details about Mr. Epstein. Ms. Bondi had promised to do so but reversed course after a joint memo issued by the F.B.I. and the Justice Department on July 6 indicated that no more disclosures about Mr. Epstein’s conviction would be forthcoming. The memo concluded that after an exhaustive review of evidence in the cases against Mr. Epstein, the government had uncovered no new evidence “that could predicate an investigation into uncharged third parties.” Judge Robin L. Rosenberg wrote that the court’s “hands are tied.” The government had not requested the grand jury’s findings for use in a judicial proceeding, she wrote, adding that district courts are generally prohibited from unsealing grand jury testimony except in narrow circumstances. She ordered that a new case be created “in the public interest” that provided access to the government’s requests and the denial order, as the Epstein grand jury docket is still sealed. But she ordered closed the case where the government filed its request, which started with the investigation into Mr. Epstein in Florida in 2005.
  2. Is the Dude of WV still peddling realignment BS to the masses?
  3. Pretty stupid meme that purposefully leaves off Texas traveling to Ohio State, aggy traveling to Notre Dame, Tennessee playing an ACC team in Syracuse, Mizzou picking back up their rivalry with Kansas. LSU plays Clemson, OU plays Michigan, Vandy travels to Virgina Tech, Arkansas plays Notre Dame, Miss State plays Arizona State.
  4. UCLA is in the Big 10?
  5. BUT HER EMAILS!!!! https://www.newsweek.com/pam-bondi-jeffrey-epstein-files-hillary-clinton-emails-2101893
  6. Preorder is up https://bn.lnk.to/BN2025
  7. We live in a world without Ozzy Osbourne and that fat fuck is still breathing.
  8. His office already responded that this was bullshit.
  9. That's because Gordo didn't write it, no one on the show played bass guitars, and Jerry Reed nor Joyce Dewitt were guest stars.
  10. Flooding the zone. That's all Trump is doing. Say stupid outlandish shit that the idiots in the media will immediate seize on. Force Obama to respond. That then becomes the story. Trump does not think that far ahead because he can't ever stay on message.
  11. We live in a world without Ozzy Osbourne but Jerry just keeps on living.
  12. Brad Sham is such a joyless dildo. I enjoy he has to call the games for this terrible team every year.
  13. Oh I don't watch this crap at all. I see the screenshots or a small clip of "look what this moron is saying" and I wonder why people will actively sit to watch this shit. I don't need confirmation that we have awful people out there but I enjoy when these people get lampooned online.
  14. Did the dipshit in the hat lose his position at the Legion of Doom?
  15. This popped up today. Sept 19th is a Friday so looks like an album reissue.
  16. Absolutely no one will support Hunter Biden being anything other than a punchline.
  17. All of that may be true but it doesn't underdo that Hunter's actions and issues with dependency were an easy distraction for the right to always bring up. If he wasn't such a fuck up, maybe things go better for Uncle Joe. Maybe he should just shut the fuck up and go away.
  18. Yeah why would a red faced Indian chief be an offensive logo?
  19. Why would this happen when leagues pool their TV rights and then pay each team equally from it? Teams already get their own revenue from things like selling preseason matches or charity events. Liverpool has its own streaming option called LFCTV Go for pre and post game breakdowns, preseason matches, and other featurettes. MLB has been the only one so far that doesn't have centralized deals for all teams. I just don't get this angst over a $3 price increase. England gets I believe only 3 matches any match day. We get all of them. I don't subscribe to USA Network but I can watch that match on OTA with Telemundo or Exitos. If it's not on there, I can find a stream.
  20. Georgia just scheduled a 4th OOC team for 2026 which seems to indicate the SEC is staying with 8 conference games. They scheduled Tennessee State. They already have Western Kentucky, @Louisville, and Georgia Tech. I supposed they can always drop Western Kentucky or Louisville if 9 games is agree to but Louisville is their only home OOC game in 2027 so far so I doubt they'd cancel that.
  21. State of the Team address is the same shit year after year. At least there's a new head coach.
  22. They have always played trailers before the film actually starts. The film is scheduled to being at 2:30, they start playing their monthly promo and then trailers. The movie has never started at 2:30. There have always been trailers, spots for Alamo merch, or the monthly theme/upcoming Alamo programming. I have tickets to Fantastic Four on Sunday. The time the previews start is 4:15, the time I bought the movie for. I really don't get what you're getting at. Do you expect that the 2:40 showing of Superman starts exactly at 2:40? You think they show trailers before 2:40? The preshow ends when the published start time begins.
