  1. My thinking on her candidacy is evolving. The pragmatist in me is dueling the hope monger within. I now see this as an experiment that needs to happen. Democrats must stop trying to convert voters whose concerns have very little to do with policy and much more to do with identity politics.. The minority-majority state of Texas had the second lowest voter participation rate in the entire county in 2024. Arkansas was last. If Jasmine can authentically speak to the concerns of 40% of Texans who routinely do not vote while energizing historically underserved communities to vote and to do so in their own interests, it could get interesting.
  2. Texas really did not need Sec money’ but yet here we are.
  3. The Dirty 6 is on a roll.
  4. That’s an Sec path, aggy.
  5. So, the Insurrection pipe bomber has turned out to be a maga butter biscuit? Accused pipe bomb planter Brian Cole Jr. confessed his crimes to the FBI, MS NOW reported. Cole also told agents that he supported President Donald Trump and held anarchist views, according to MS NOW. Cole was arrested nearly five years after allegedly placing explosive devices outside Republican and Democratic party offices in Washington, D.C., on the eve of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
  6. Perhaps, but Tech is well positioned to be in the mix going forward.
  7. Wouldn’t surprise me to see them run the table and be right back in the CFP next year.
  8. I just don’t know… https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-fighting-institute-peace-court-010117027.html WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration has renamed the U.S. Institute of Peace after President Donald Trump and has planted the president's name on the organization's headquarters despite an ongoing fight over the institute's control. It’s the latest twist in a seesaw court battle over who controls the U.S. Institute of Peace, a nonprofit think tank that focuses on peace initiatives. It was an early target of the Department of Government Efficiency this year. On Wednesday, the State Department said it renamed the organization to the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace to “reflect the greatest dealmaker in our nation’s history.” The new name could be seen on its building, which is near the State Department.
  9. Trump Calls Ilhan Omar “Garbage” as His Team Breaks Out in Applause Donald Trump went on a particularly racist tirade about the Democratic representative. And his entire Cabinet enjoyed it. She’s a real terrible person … I hear [Somalians] ripped off that state for billions of dollars … I don’t want ’em in our country, I’ll be honest with you. Somebody’ll say ‘Ooh that’s not politically correct.’ I don’t care. I don’t want ’em in our country. Their country’s no good for a reason. Their country stinks, and we don’t want ’em in our country. “We’re gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. Her friends are garbage.… When they come from hell, and they complain, and do nothing but bitch? We don’t want ’em in our country. Let ’em go back to where they came from and fix it.” Trump’s Cabinet members started banging on the table, clapping, and cheering as the meeting concluded on that note. https://newrepublic.com/post/203870/trump-calls-ilhan-omar-garbage-cabinet-applauds
  10. It might be time for the schools who spend all of their time pining away for membership in the B1G or Sec to reassess the prudence of doing so. This would be especially true of B12 schools like Tech. Should Tech continue on its current trajectory, it’s possible they could represent the B12 in the CPF every year for the foreseeable future. At the same time, it’s hard to ignore the allure of playing in conferences which were largely crafted by media conglomerates that can promote their brands and make life miserable for those outside their orbit. Arkansas proves the earlier point. By virtue of their fidelity to the Sec, including the money and visibility it provides, it appears wouldn’t change a thing, despite 20+ years of losing football. Why would a school like Tech even want to flirt with the idea of becoming another Arkansas? Sometimes, comparison really is the thief of joy, especially if it’s possible to grow and flourish where you are planted.
  11. Mace will respond by saying he left because she spurned his amorous advances, because everybody wants her crazy ass.
  12. Since the Tech coach and his AD have this incredible synchronicity, I think it qualifies as a reach out.
