Things Not Going Well in Venezuela, 2.0
Hey, at least we can dispense with "exporting democracy" and go straight to the right-wing dictatorship!

A shit show, that's what's coming. An expensive humanitarian shit show. We'll get some oil and a lot of Chevron and Conoco workers are gonna get dead. And then we're gonna have boots on the ground.

Things not going well in Venezuela
Well, I had this same question. There are some laws that make a drug conspiracy that ships into the US but is otherwise extraterritorial, a US crime. We knew this. It's how we got El Chapo and los chapitos, etc. 18 USC 924 makes it an enhancement to an offense to possess (or brandish, more of an enhancement, or fire, even more of an enhancement) a firearm during commission of a drug offense. So, as long as the crime is "chargeable" in the US, the gun actitivy doesn't have to take place here, apparently. It's a pretty standard international drug conspiracy charging tactic. So, I had wondered if this was more Trumpian incompetence, but it seems not. Not sure about the conspiracy to possess a machine gun, though. That looks like it has to be done on US soil.

NIL Recruiting News Megathread
Just kind of of passing interest. Here is what an NIL lawsuit looks like, in the general context. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.1000315/gov.uscourts.cacd.1000315.1.0.pdf Note that the causes of action (grounds), are the federal Trademark Act (Section 43(a) false destination of origin/unfair competition) a California state law claim, and a "common law" non-statutory claim. California being one of a handful of states with specific NIL laws outside of college sports.

They probably will, but this seems like a tough one for them to actually have to prosecute. I'm really interested how they prosecute a gun possession crime that occurred outside the United States.

TIL there’s something called fraud tourism. Congrats, Minnesota.
One post, quite obviously tongue-in-cheek and contexted by the rampant fraud the fraudster in chief is pardoning.

No one said otherwise, dipshit. This is nothing special. Just another example of fraud. It's only special because bleks, immigrants, and Minnesota. Get mad about this one instead. $15B in Houston. https://www.thecentersquare.com/texas/article_20d61ee7-12d6-4a7b-b9df-3a1444152e52.html Talk about Abbott and Paxton letting fraud run rampant.

TIL there’s something called fraud tourism. Congrats, Minnesota.
First off, fraud is pretty rampant, everywhere. Every state in the union, including a healthy dose right here in Texas. Feeding our Future was apparently a bit of a special case. Made possible by the privatization of social services and stripping of funding of governmental oversight, as well as the predilections of Somali immigrants in Minnesota. The ONLY reason this is a big story is, number one, darkie immigrants, and number two, Minnesota is librul and its governor challenged the authority of dear leader. Chris Rufo is behind this and he is a known fabulist and propagandist. https://minnesotareformer.com/2025/11/25/right-wing-reporting-on-somali-money-going-to-al-shabaab-is-sloppy/

Much better presidents and administrations (I.e. all of them), have failed at these endeavors before. Also, how you you charge weapons offenses that occur outside the US. I'm sure Bondi's DOJ has this sewed up.

He's extremely conservative when it comes to law enforcement issues, both immigration and criminal.

There is a theory that developing the muscle memory to be extra-adept at some form of sports is inconsistent with intelligence and higher-order thinking.

Yeah Clark seemed to be a different dude in the Citrus Bowl. Made me question UM D. But there are other explanations also. Quite a few of the younger players kind of showed out. Doesn't necessarily mean they would have done so earlier in the season, but it was quite gruntling. Special shout out to Warren Roberson. That boy kinda aggro and I don't think he accounted for any penalties for once.

Well, they are contract negotiations. That doesn't mean that anyone has to compromise. As in many sports contract negotiations, the player's value is a matter of some speculation and, likely due to agents, players seem to often overplay their hand. Then again, there always seems to be some greater fool willing to come close to their price.

Tell me about Texas Tech
Just a simple clarification. For the first time ever, schools can spend their own revenue, up to $21M, on payments to athletes. The NIL model of compensation is not so limited. But it is ostensibly to be coupled to a NIL consideration and is not ostensibly directed by the university or team. The NIL collective, which I think Campbell primarily employs, does kind of skirt the intent of NIL. But err'one uses em.

Regardless of the specific two games, his targets did seem to drop off a bit as the season progressed. And he evidenced a few more drops.

Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Hell Is Empty, and All the Devils Are Here
You'd kinda have to think as roomies and ostensible bffs they talked about it. If Arch had thoughts about it, I'd imagine the staff heard them. But that's about it.
