  1. We've learned that a SCOTUS ruling can be overturned. I don't think there is any reason to believe that a President is immune from a bribery charge. Perhaps not while in office but definitely afterwards. Now perhaps the Supreme Court could say otherwise. Did they specifically say that a ex-President couldn't be held accountable via a criminal prosecution after they leave office?
  2. All of his pardons and commutations should be reviewed by the next Dem admin, and decide if there were any illegal activity behind the pardon. If so, the pardon should be considered invalid. And I would argue that any questionable pardon should include jailing the person while it’s quickly adjudicated. overall we need laws defining that a pardon cannot involved any financial benefit for the president or anyone in the administration, either directly or indirectly. Or honesty, I think a judge could rule on this as well.
  3. And the sovereign citizen says this from behind a closed window, refusing to lower it.
  4. Williams had a drop off in production this year (as of now) so he might be discontented at Bama. Only 4 TDs vs 8 last year. He could be promised more targets and $$$ but it could also lead to playing for a 8-4 team and no playoff.
  5. who would have guessed that a country that can build a city overnight can also have questionable safety standards.
  6. Does anyone not believe that Hegseth ordered the military to kill everyone on the Venezuelan boats, including a second strike to take out any survivors? I would actually be surprised if someone demonstrated that Hegseth was told there were survivors and didn't order a second strike.
  7. I don't know if the student reporter was the first to throw "you can't turn a hoe into a housewife" onto Kiffin, but that is going to follow Kiffin at every turn. The best part is that he's now shown that it bothers him so the rest of the SEC is turn it up to an 11. And forget it just being signs at Gameday, he will hear it personally from strangers.
  8. Everyone in the GOP is refusing to comment on the Honduran president pardon (has it actually happened?) They all recognize how preposterous it is that we're killing smugglers but willing to free someone from the top of the drug orgs.
  9. Alina's case to stay as the NJ US Attorney has been rejected by an appeals court. Now it will be up to the Supreme Court to allow her to stay or every case that she touched or authorized is at risk.
  10. Tangentially related: my social media algorithm has locked in that I love watching videos of people arguing their rights to police. The worst (best) are the sovereign citizens who break out printed supreme court cases to educate the police officer on the side of the road why they don't have to produce an ID.
  11. Guarantee that Kash has googled, "How to stand like a man."
  12. top 3? come on man. you can't really say that with a straight face. I will give you top 10. Do you even watch college football? And talent per capita means nothing like I wrote. Hawaii and DC are high up on the per capita lists but it's just playing with stats. Yes, I agree LA produces a lot of talent but there's zero barrier to someone leaving the state. I imagine that many of the NFL players from Louisiana attended LSU or Louisiana Tech but I bet the majority attended school elsewhere.
  13. I struggle to accept the idea that LSU has this mythical edge because they’re the only large program in a state that has talent. I’ve seen a chart floating around that shows NFL players per state capita with LA at the top. Wtf does that even mean. The same chart shows DC is a hotbed of talent but should Georgetown be a top team in D1? yes, I bet that some mommas and daddies want their son to be nearby in BR and all of their relatives can see them play, But this isn’t 1950 where parents and relatives can’t easily travel. Boosters can effectively hand money to parents now to cover the costs. And it’s not like the other SEC school are far away to begin with. finally every coach will remind recruits that Kiffin has a history of walking away from players while he demands loyalty. kiffin will be gone within 5.
  14. Looks like they understood the election consequences but their neighbors didn’t. Thanks for researching.
  15. Small (200 people) Virginia town loses its only health clinic due to Trump budget cuts. CNN link I can’t quickly find the town election results totals but the wider county of 77k went 75-25 Trump. They also recently voted in a Republican for their state rep over a Democrat physician. The Dem lost by 40 points.
