  1. Always wonder how much of a living someone has when they annually appear in a couple of TV episodes, 1-2 low budget film, and infrequently in a large budget film.
  2. UM will pay for this to go away. They don’t want this in court or in the press every day. It will be a distraction even if ESPN or Barstool fail to cover it. not to mention that she could very well know about more UM secrets including other coaches who cheat on their wives.
  3. Bunch of victims here.
  4. In terms of her violating any HR policy, I’ve read that the UM employee handbook says that reporting of any relationship is the sole responsibility of the senior employee/supervisor. There’s also the story that UM was investigating this situation for a couple of months and that she denied the relationship. I do agree that puts her in a bad light but any decent lawyer could successfully argue that she had to lie to keep her job given the athletic dept culture. Therefore it’s unreasonable to expect to tell the truth. Put me on a jury and I would have zero qualms about making UM pay out.
  5. fair maps? These fair maps were completely cracking Indianapolis and NW Indiana which just so happened to most likely move the 7-2 congressional map to 9-0. Indiana is definitely a red state but even they had 40% vote for Harris. You could easily argue that 6-3 GOP would be the fair split.
  6. Winner. They will justify going back to the same people because "this election is just too important to not unify on foundation principles."
  7. @bobcat1995 Would Dad and Stepmom have problems with selling their house now and moving into a rental? I get that people want to remain in their "home" but there's something to be said about downsizing and having a landlord to take care of all houston maintenance and problems. Having $500K in the bank + monthly SS is not a bad financial step. It gives you many options.
  8. Yes. An amendment would be necessary.
  9. Presumably Moore had some idea that an investigation was underway. Is there any chance an investigation wouldn't at least give him a chance to explain his side, even as a last step before completing the investigation? Is it possible that the side chick cooperated with the investigation and Moore only found out as he was shown the door?
  10. We need to require a Congressional approval for pardons. Pardons and commutations are good in principle in allowing a President to right a wrong but the abuses are growing too much. An amendment is needed that should require the House to vote on the pardon/commutation at the beginning of its next quorum. First vote of the day. And not just a voice vote but require an actual vote. Force them to put their name on it. And no pardons allowed in the period between 1 week prior to election day and the new congress, including new President is inaugurated.
  11. Imagine the conflicts if the President gets to override a state's (governor's) right to pardon. I assume it could also mean that a President could veto a governor's pardon if the President disagrees with the pardon.
  12. Unspecified but I assume that at some point the dangers of the COVID vaccine will be read to you and you will need to sign off that you accept taking your life into danger.
  13. The best part of this failure in Indiana is that while the state senators do want GOP control in Congress, they have pointed to the bullying and harassment from Trump & Co., as well as his behavior for their rejection of Trump's wishes. One state GOP senator, with a Down's syndrome child, called out Trump's insensitivity towards people like his child. Sadly, these politicians will will most likely face consequences in future elections or be required to resign to avoid them.
  14. Wish that had been followed up with inquiring about why the FBI is unable to discover more information about the #1 threat to American safety.
  15. CNN reporting that the FDA is going to issue a black label warning on COVID vaccines packaging. The label is reserved for the most dangerous drugs that carry a high risk like opioids.
