  1. Some Augie remembrance there.
  2. Opening the straight pipes and blipping the throttle continuously while cruising through the hood.
  3. Woo pig sooie.
  4. Unfortunately, due to the political question doctrine, it's not completely insane. Either that or SCOTUS will find that Congress delegated all authority to declare emergencies to the President, despite the major question and non-delegation doctrines that they love elsewhere. This is a specter in the tariff cases and everywhere Trump has declared an emergency. There is some hope that SCOTUS will not derogate its own power that greatly.
  5. Make that 6. Holy shit. Go Cleers
  6. We see, therefore, that War is not merely a political act, but also a real political instrument, a continuation of political commerce, a carrying out of the same by other means. -Carl von Clausewitz, On War, 1918.
  7. Israel, dammit. Iz Rah El. Not is real.
  8. AP and maybe Reuters are the only journalistic entities with any balls anymore.
  9. Gee, will ya look at that. Somehow or other, enrichment accelerated when someone tore up this agreement we had. Or maybe that whole thing is an elaborate construct of the MSM.
  10. Can usually count on fuckin tigah to turn it up in the post-season. Go cleers.
  11. I don't remember particular players, but going 20-15 after Witt went out after starting 11-0 was pretty huge.
  12. We did, but those were slightly flukey/lucky wins emblematic of our whole season. We were definitely starting on a peak that was over by Arkansas and stayed over. I wouldn't give late-season us a chance against LSU or probably any of the teams in the CWS.
  13. Sayonara Kuma. Never really thought they had a chance.
  14. Well you kinda do need evidence besides the "I seen it in my head" that seems to go round here. Which is ultimately no better than Sidney Powell.
  15. The number of GQP fucks that have absolutely debased themselves, and the degree to which they have done it, is astonishing. Should be "Debased Mike Lee."
  16. Even so, there aren't really rules for anyone else in this arena. A competitor, or possibly even a consumer, could sue their collective asses off for false advertising and deceptive trade practices.
  17. He's been a Senator for a good long time (since 2011), 2019 is recent history for him. I noticed him as a sponsor of a version of the First Step Act quite some time ago, and a more charitable version of what actually got passed. I'm sure he's always been some kind of reactionary, but he used to not be "based."
  18. Other than a common-law type false advertising claim, which could be quite viable, the law requires country of origin labeling on the product itself. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/19/1304 and provides penalties for failure to mark or marking falsely. So, conversely, lying your ass off, without mismarking the product itself, doesn't seem to be actionable. I also assume this is 100% a Patriot Mobile/Trump deal.
  19. Vague and anonymous. Although it seems plausible, maybe even likely, I'm not seeing enough evidence.
  20. At one time, Mike Lee appeared to be a semi-sane and serious Senator, if a Mormon reactionary.
  21. Here's the affidavit for the Complaint, which does not allege charges in quite the same way as an indictment, but the charges are stalking, using a firearm in a crime of violence, and using a firearm to commit/attempt murder, both under 18 USC 924. https://www.msnbc.com/top-stories/latest/read-minnesota-shooting-vance-boelter-charges-full-text-pdf-rcna213316 For the firearm-to-commit/attempt murder charge, it would seem that the murder/attempt would have to be of the federal variety, which means "Within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States," which this ain't.
  22. Even the most gung-ho MAGAt US Attorney might flinch a little at an entire prosecution for the purpose of giving Trump an opportunity to pardon. And federal prosecution, in most cases, does not preclude state. So it's all a giant waste of time.
