  1. I have never heard of this website before - but it was posted on another site I infrequent, so here it is. Glancing at it looks like an onion+chive site, but who am I to judge Jim Harbaugh Announces Resignation As Michigan Head Coach (triond.net)
  2. We all started with between $15,000 and Harrison Stafford money - and we all have about $50 left in our stonks. Honesty - I had about 2.5% of my investment in stonks, and then ALPP hit and that almost quadrupled the amount (sale of ALPP, and stupidly buying other non-RCR recommended stuff), and now it is probably back to between the 2-3% range.
  3. Too bad we can't have in thread polls: a) Emmer gets elected Speaker b) Emmer gets between 201 and 1 less than 50% c) Emmer gets fewer than 200 votes d) Emmer's name is never up for a vote e) As if
  4. You are a comedian right. Not a chance in hell, at least at this point.
  5. I've been in meetings all morning - can someone tell who the new Speaker is? or who is being targeted by Keep the House Stalemated caucus and is going to finish 2nd to Jeffries in the next vote
  6. fuck with the bull; get the horns
  7. that little bitch AMY looks to be crossing into teen territory, heading into true penny stock status.
  8. LOL - those were bad back in the day; if you liked the area 5401 Chimney Rock was the place to be. (raise your hand if you are a former 5401 resident, jump up an yell if you live there currently) 🙋‍♂️
  9. I'm am thinking this is hanging, with pride, in the offices of Gaetz and his buddies
  10. I think the majority party controls the nomination process....well in theory they control it; not sure they control shit right now. Bad news is there are some that like being the shiny turd in the shit show.
  11. That seems like it should work, but in the political reality we are currently living in - the Dems have been given the gift of letting the Repubs show that they cannot rule/legislate when in the majority. This process, when it works, allows the majority party, through their conference, to elect leaders of the house and of committees, but it is a crappy system if there is a coalition. And that is what the Repubs are in actuality, seems like this could fracture the party, and it may cause moderate (some might say reasonable) Repubs to actually reach out to the Dems; the problem is that they might want a few to reach over and support Jeffries. In reality, if there was a split it would take a great deal of compromise to get anything passed. But it would be a huge defeat for the current majority to have to make a coalition; not sure how much worse that could be (or be perceived to be) that the shitstorm the R conference has right now (quick question bigger mess - the 2024 PAC 12 conference, or the Republican conference/) footnote; Zero democrats voted no in the Republican conference last week that pushed Gym (was Gym one of the lolllipop kids?) out of contention for the speaker.
  12. I am hoping to go Wed or Friday - I've read that you can get tickets for under $200, if you wait until after the 8:00 start time. I've read they are available on some apps, but not on all.
  13. The Aristocrats! Seriously these are great questions - one of you should as Fitlump, during a break in a City Council meeting
  14. .
  15. Haven't you read up on this, if Trump was in office or would have been the best military withdrawal ever, it would have been beautiful. And it was all those Democrats who voted no that caused McCarthy to lose the speakers seat. I should know, I read all about it in the Internet
  16. If I thought they were reasonable or intelligent, then I would say that they fucked around and found out. But I really doubt that they can change their game, so it will continue until someone has to introduce he bill to empower Patrick McHenry to do the work of the Speaker. Though honestly I don't see how that really ever passes. reminder - Zero democrats voted no on the Republican caucus secret ballot if Gym Jordan should be the candidate for the 4th try. Which means they will have to order their own pizza this weekend.
  17. I am certain that 0% of the no votes in the Republican Caucas were cast by Democrats; yet some mouth breather will twist statement blaming them.
  18. They should be told to grow up
  19. please define the term "survive"
  20. Matt Gaetz - representative from Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz | Representing the 1st District of Florida (house.gov) Matt Gertz - Sr. Fellow at Media Matters Matt Gertz | Media Matters for America the first one initiated the revolution, the second one is just reporting on it
  21. I wonder how much it bothers the UAW (and specifically Shaun Fain) that the news of the past 2 weeks has pretty much kept the strike out of the news. It barely makes the local news, and I am just over an hour from the GM & Ford HQ and there are 2 plants in our community that are on strike. I do see there is another weekly update today at 4pm, which I'd guess means no new strike targets, as they have announced those in that past at a 10am presser for noon walkouts. Sidenote: it is fun to drive past the pickets and honk, then watch them get all excited for the "support".
  22. Carnival barker is back on the stage and the side show monkeys will start griding their music boxes because the show must go on. These fuckers are really committed to locking down the legislative branch and stalemating the process. They should trade the elephant for the donkey, as they are making assess of themselves and the party. Crash and burn baby, crash and burn.
  23. whoa - S&P is up about 450 (11% YTD, 600/15% 12 months) and down about 300 off the mid- summer high psycho split personality market is a crazy bitch
  24. Spoilered for those who haven't watched a 30 year old movie. I think Patriot Games might have been my favorite Jack Ryan book.
