  1. What area?
  2. It was pretty tough the last few days on the redfish flats/lakes, but they were spanking some nice trout in the surf
  3. What, are y’all mad that Kyrie won’t say he’s a great take?
  4. Work together in a united effort doing what? That isn't happening or would happen anyway?
  5. You must be a hit with judges
  6. Our first acquaintance has it -- one of my wife's good friends got her positive test yesterday. She lives here in Austin. Doing fine so far.
  7. Their business model is to rile people up and the ad plays into that
  8. online crossfit gonna make a comeback during the pandemic
  9. Just canceled a family trip to CO, we were scheduled to fly up tomorrow. Still have an international trip on the books in two weeks but at the rate all this is going it probably won't happen either.
  10. Because its just bottled tap water but creates plastic trash
  11. They can impeach for anything that he does while in office. I think the assumption is the financials will show crimes he committed before he was elected
  12. Financial crimes may not fit as neatly into "high crimes" while POTUS has been in office, but they may be very useful for moving public opinion toward overwhelming support for removal. If it becomes clear that he has been defrauding everyone he can, including the American people, that is a lot easier for gullible olds to understand than the Ukraine thing.
  13. I think Warren stepped in it by coming out with a health care plan along with how to fund it, putting a target on her back. Obviously, congress -- not the president -- passes legislation. POTUS can be a strong advocate for a health care system, but ultimately there will be compromises. She should have pointed that out and basically said "I will support any plans that lower health care costs and expand coverage at the same time. If thats a version of M4A, great. But there may be other plans, short of M4A, that I would also support. Anything would be better than what republicans are currently offering."
  14. You got the first part right. But when he loses he will secretly flee to a country without extradition to the U.S. i.e. Russia
  15. At least he would teach them how to wrap up
  16. I am going with resignation due to a medical issue and an insanity defense in the subsequent prosecutions
  17. I had the same question. The other photos were lol worthy but this one looked ok
  18. This is the same thing I mentioned with Mulvaney. I think one part of the "throw shit against wall, see what sticks" strategy is to portray the quid pro quo as related to the 2016 election interference instead of an investigation into Hunter Biden. The Biden angle was blatantly using the office and military aid to attack a political opponent. Investigation of the 2016 election interference -- which benefitted Trump -- is 180 degrees different. Its obviously bogus but if the strategy was successful it would do several things 1) shift focus away from Trump looking for dirt on an opponent 2) shift focus away from Russia and onto Ukraine w.r.t. election interference, and 3) makes his meddling in Ukraine not nearly as "impeachable."
  19. I don't know if it has been discussed yet, but it dawned on me that Mulvaney talking about a quid pro quo might have actually been calculated and pretty subtle. The whistleblower described a quid pro quo where military aid was conditioned on dirt/investigation of a political rival -- obviously a huge no-no and counter to the most basic principles of democracy. What Mulvaney "admitted" to was much different -- conditioning Ukraine aid on investigation of interference into the 2016 election. If true (which I don't believe for a second) that would make the entire Ukraine thing a nothing berder. So I think it was intentional, part of the administration's strategy of lying about everything and throwing everything they can think of against the wall to see what sticks. Fuckers
  20. Yes, a server that’s supposed to be only used for top secret matters of national security
  21. Don’t forget that Trump got played in Venezuela too giving Putin a footprint in the Americas
  22. Ken Starr was just on, defending/discussing Mulvaney's press conference. He kept making the point that Mulvaney should have been more careful and "guarded" with his messaging, in other words that Mulvaney's mistake was telling the truth. I guess this is how we end up with a massive coverup of Baylor athletes' free license to rape students
