  1. it is out there. He has been nominated. Then we're out and the door is closed. It's decision time. And looming large over the whole affair is one figure: Donald Trump. The world's most powerful man wants the world's most prestigious award. It seems as if he's become fixated on it. In speeches and press conferences, he has repeatedly reeled off a list of the seven wars he says he has solved. He's boasted that he deserves the award and that "everyone says I should get it", but told troops in Virginia last month: "They'll give it to some guy that didn't do a damn thing; they'll give it to the guy who wrote a book about the mind of Donald Trump… it will be a big insult to our country." World leaders appear to have realised Nobel flattery is a way to his heart. Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu publicly whipped out a nomination letter at the White House; Azerbaijan's president told Trump in a news conference that he deserved the prize; Pakistan's government announced it had nominated him, winning plaudits from the president. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg5ejm4qrzyo
  2. Sorry Bruin, but more baseball is not a bad thing.
  3. Damn.....
  4. I thought that gone.
  5. Maybe. But the last thing Maduro wants is to give Trump a reason.
  6. Just dusted this off for a quick read.
  7. Blonde, blue eyed Jesus? Or the real one from the Levant? Ya know, brown people.
  8. Burn him. He looks like a witch. we know we can count on you.
  9. Watch better movies. Also, in the field shit is allowed to grow out. But there was a concept mainly in Afghanistan of "blending in" that never worked. I know a lot of SF dudes. Father, brother, #1 client were all group or more. All are clean shaven.
  10. Now we need Imma coming out of a swamp. Anyone got those skills?
  11. Add Sudan and South Sudan. We just don't hear about it in our news.
  12. No. From Bolivia to Guatemala there is a move towards the old ways. Exceptions. Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. Shit the Dominicans are building a wall on their border. Trust me. I stayed in a hotel in Cancun once.
  13. They stopped at Buccees. Also love the weapon carry. Um.....
  14. No it won't. There is a move against BRIC in the Hemisphere. How long that lasts? Well if we would do it right for a long time.
  15. Nah, there will be boots. Maracaibo and reopening the Embassy in Caracas.
  16. Yes, and smaller microgrids to augment specific sections of bases. Army is doing it as well.
  17. It will be a military operation without any humanitarian support, which is always needed.
  18. I bet we could find one. I would look in Malta or Athens. Maybe Dubai. Name it the BevoSki. Can someone make the UT BEVO flag into a Pirate emblem?
  19. Damn what a nice play.
  20. Fuck it, went with Laughing.
  21. I don't know if to use the Rage or Laughing emoji for your rep on this one. JFC.
  22. Yeah, we tried to kill him in Sudan when Clinton was in Office. He was known to be behind the Kobar Tower bombing. He was on our list for sure. Those that matter knew who he was.
  23. Deport the illegals, but not illegal activity. Trump’s Immigration Push Diverts U.S. Agents From Drug, Money and Sex-Crime Cases A federal team in El Paso that once pursued child traffickers has been disbanded. A Kansas task force focused on stemming the flow of fentanyl has been redirected. Highway checkpoints near the southwest border—some on roads long identified as major drug-trafficking routes—have gone unstaffed. The shift reflects a broader realignment in federal law enforcement. Thousands of federal agents once tasked with investigating drug smuggling, sexual exploitation and organized crime have been redirected to immigration enforcement under President Trump’s second-term push to accelerate deportations, according to current and former officials. The administration has set a goal of removing 3,000 migrants a day who are in the country illegally. To help meet that number, officials say, Homeland Security Investigations agents, Customs and Border Protection officers, Federal Bureau of Investigation officials and even the Postal Service have been pulled from their traditional duties to help track, detain and deport undocumented immigrants. https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trumps-immigration-push-diverts-u-s-agents-from-drug-money-and-sex-crime-cases-90b37cc9
