  1. I find it beyond stupefying that millions of Texas actually like such a loathsome prick.
  2. The bill requires that all brown people arrested under its provisions must be dumped into Mexico, even if they are not Mexican and have never been to Mexico. Texas voters are the stupidest sons a bitches on the planet.
  3. I’m betting it will be mere days before they arrest and mistreat a Latino born in Navasota.
  4. Lend Trump money? Hilarious.
  5. Very few members of Trump's former cabinet have endorsed his 2024 re-election campaign. NBC News reached out to over 40 former cabinet members, finding just 4 publicly endorsed Trump. Other former cabinet members burned by Trump are advocating against him. https://www.businessinsider.com/members-trumps-cabinet-just-4-endorsed-him-2024-nbc-2023-7
  6. Is this the thread we use to congratulate Republicans on Putin’s re-election?
  7. Not many would have guessed with the Sec getting 8 bids that a Beard coached Ole Miss would not be one of them.
  8. The Israel-Hamas story is one with a lot of moving parts: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/10/world/middleeast/israel-qatar-money-prop-up-hamas.html
  9. Nice article in the Sunday DMN about the B12 being the best and getting better. Some excerpts: https://www.dallasnews.com/... “ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla doesn’t buy into any of the arguments against the Big 12 not having been the best league in the country for the last decade. Kansas and Baylor won titles and Texas Tech played in overtime of a championship game just in the last five years. Fraschilla expanded on that theme.” They’ve been ranked No. 1 conference nine of the last 11 years and were No. 2 when they weren’t. And they’ve had five different teams go to the Elite Eight in the last five years,’’ he said. That’s five teams in four tournaments since the 2020 affair was canceled at the outset of the pandemic. Texas and Kansas State traveled to the Elite Eight last year and, naturally, Baylor, Kansas and Tech made it on those championship game trips. Won’t surprise anyone if two new names — Houston and Iowa State — make it this year, and guess what? It’s a shame that basketball suffers in comparison to football because of the massive amount of conference-based revenues football generates (not saying the hoopsters don’t get a nice check from CBS). Instead of folks clutching their pearls over the loss of Texas and Oklahoma from the football landscape, there would be a much louder discussion about who’s coming to the Big 12 to play roundball. Start with Arizona, the last regular season champion of the Pac-12 and a likely No. 2 seed tomorrow. Then there’s Colorado, which played Oregon for the Pac-12 tournament title Saturday night in Las Vegas. Utah and Arizona State have been known to put together some decent basketball teams, and I would suspect this is the last year that Kansas departs the Big 12 tournament so quickly and quietly. The Big 12 is likely to place nine teams in the March Madness field Sunday night, and who’s to say the league won’t make double figures in 2025
  10. Hell, I remember when A&E used to program actual arts and entertainment.
  11. I hope ISU is not banking on that. People can adapt and grow where’re they’re planted. Throw all the money at him you possibly can.
  12. I’m really hoping ISU will be able to beat back all of the suitors who are sure to come for Otzelberger. The Big 12 needs to be more than a green room for B1G and Sec schools looking to improve their fortunes.
  13. Which one is functional, in your view?
  14. Let’s see how long Pence stays off the crazy train: https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/15/politics/pence-will-not-endorse-trump/index.html Former Vice President Mike Pence on Friday said he “cannot in good conscience” endorse presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump, a stunning repudiation of his former running mate and the president he served with. “Donald Trump is pursuing and articulating an agenda that is at odds with the conservative agenda that we governed on during our four years. That’s why I cannot in good conscience endorse Donald Trump in this campaign,” Pence said on Fox News.
  15. The meat of the matter in the classified docs case and Judge Cannon can be found at the 3:15 mark in this clip:
  16. What the NBC clip doesn’t cover is the predictable actions of the local butter biscuit politician, who got up in a public session and advocated on behalf of this racist. Disgusting:
  17. Couldn’t find an appropriate thread in which to post this: https://news.yahoo.com/mitch-mcconnell-urges-courts-ignore-214428726.html Let’s end judge shopping: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., on Thursday criticized a move made by the federal judiciary to restrict the practice of "judge-shopping," an approach conservative lawyers have recently used in high-profile cases in an effort to find a sympathetic jurist. McConnell said on the Senate floor that the U.S. Judicial Conference, the policymaking body of the judiciary, was effectively siding with Democrats, who have complained about conservative groups and Republican attorneys general filing contentious lawsuits in single-judge divisions. "This was an unforced error by the Judicial Conference," McConnell said. "I hope they will reconsider." He suggested that district courts could resist applying the new policy. "I hope district courts throughout the country will instead weigh what is best for their jurisdictions, not half-baked 'guidance' that just does Washington Democrats’ bidding," he said. McConnell, joined by two fellow Republicans, Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., have also sent letters to judges around the country making that point. Recent examples of judge-shopping include several cases filed in Texas, including the conservative bid to overturn federal approval of the abortion pill mifepristone. That was filed in Amarillo, where it was guaranteed the judge would be Matthew Kacsmaryk, a former conservative legal activist appointed by then-President Donald Trump. The new policy, announced this week, would ensure that any cases seeking to block state or federal policies in federal district courts would be assigned randomly from larger pools of judges. Some conservative judges have already criticized the move. It was described as a "good idea" by Judge Jeffrey Sutton, a conservative judge on the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals who chairs the Judicial Conference's executive committee.
  18. Still the most Atlanta shit ever. Now, go get him Fani.
  19. Schumer is dragging Bibi to hell and back. Things are about to be on and poppin! https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/03/14/congress/schumer-takes-on-netanyahu-government-00146991 Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is calling for new elections in Israel, describing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government as an "obstacle to peace" amid his country's ongoing war in Gaza. Schumer, the highest-ranking Jewish official in U.S. history, urged Israel to "do better," citing the estimated tens of thousands of Palestinian civilian casualties caused by the Netanyahu government's military offensive aimed at neutralizing the terrorist group Hamas.
  20. The benefit of hindsight notwithstanding, I wonder if Tech fans would prefer Beard over McCasland today.
  21. He even went so far as to claim he was a member of one of the Divine Nine (Kappa Alpha Psi) He is not.
  22. I was responding to the quote and tweet.
  23. This is so much bullshit. Ain’t no 20% of black people voting for that ignoramus.
