    I have no faith left in Texas voters.

    This here. Too many far right transplants moving in, and the state gop has had control too long. Those things combining with other factors and Texas is losing its uniqueness/independent spirit

    This is how numb we have become to the shitstain. Accused of raping a 13 year old and not a single comment about it. Instead we are discussing how a 3rd party Qanon candidate will affect the election. Is the MSM talking about the rape suit?

    That is a lot of troops to support and equip. How are they going to arm them?

    Since they have almost used up the T-55 tanks, ancient field guns, Mosin-Nagants, next up is potato guns. The only problem with that is since they can't feed their troops either, they would eat up all the ammo.

    The other fucking guy is nearly as old, and far less healthy. It's like complaining that he's a white man, or an east coast elite. If the only other opponent is the exact same thing, how is that an argument?

    Its the only thing they have to try to attack Biden

  5. Have you forgotten the Mueller Report?

    the report states that Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election was illegal and occurred "in sweeping and systematic fashion"[10][11][12] but was welcomed by the Trump campaign as it expected to benefit from such efforts.[13][14][15] It also identifies myriad links between Trump associates and Russian officials and spies,[16] about which several persons connected to the campaign made false statements and obstructed investigations.[

    pretty sure we're well past that point

    I expect the defense contractor lobby to pull through at some point pretty soon, and R's need some cover to flip flop

  7. As a Dem leader, wouldn't you want to keep that quiet? To give Johnson some cover in case he wants to pass the aid? He can't be seen as having given into pressure from Dems.

    THEN she'll reject it to prevent any appeal from happening because at this point anything that goes to the 11th circuit runs the risk of her being removed.

    Que? Now judges can be removed if an appellate court finds reversible error?

    Anything has to be better than the embarrassment these last three years have been. We’re the laughing stock of the world. Whoever is elected, hope they can bring some respect and law and order back to this country. If not, it’s going to be ugly. 

    Please tell me this is irony or you're doing a bit

  10. NPR did a story a little while back on turf, interviewed a former turf industry insider and he pretty much said grass is better in every way and turf is basically a big scam. Ends up way more expensive, even considering ongoing maintenance, and leads to mountains of scrap turf that can't be recycled so it is just dumped in landfills

    Reading the tea leaves I think we are tossing Ukraine overboard.  There won’t be another big package until MAYBE after the general and then only if Trump loses.  This is nearly all the fault of the GOP but the Sullivan approach for the 1.5 years we had was frankly uninspired. 

    American foreign policy has gone the way of the nation. Neurotic and timid on the left, insane and hateful from the right.

    Are we out of workarounds like lend/lease, presidential drawdown authority, creative accounting, etc.?

    I looked into setting up a monthly donation to NAFO a couple weeks ago when I couldn’t sleep, but didn’t love using my PayPal account (an email address I use for other accounts too). It may be paranoia but I assume these Ukrainian donation sites are prime targets for Russian hackers. I was thinking of creating a PayPal account purely to donate to Ukraine that I seed from my normal PayPal address to create a layer of separation. It’s been like 20 years since I created my PayPal account so I’m really not sure this would be effective at all. Did you think about this? If so, how’d you mitigate the risk? 

    I didn't really think about it. Donated with a credit card and just assumed if I got hacked, the financial institution(s) involved would fix it. There have been these kind of fundraisers going since soon after the '22 full scale invasion and I haven't heard about any fuckery going on through any of the NAFO approved/associated fundraisers.

  13. Saw it with the kids the other day and really really liked it. It gives a few homages to the original, but I liked how overall its basically its own movie. Which was the right call, since the original has a heavy Clockwork Orange vibe and some aspects that are otherwise pretty fuckin weird for a kids movie. In that context, I thought Chalamet was great. Super fun family movie, as mentioned there are some legit laugh out loud moments, and just really well done.

    can you post the link where you donated?

    It was a fundraiser through WarTranslated, that one is closed but whenever they finish one it doesn't take long to start another one. I don't see one right now, but here's one from another dude that is legit:

    I've also donated to https://www.libertyukraine.org/

    But you won't get a NAFO patch with either of those. It looks like the NAFO website has other fundraisers and I imagine you can get some swag donating there: https://nafo-ofan.org/
