I don't know about that. It's a big universe out there. It can't all be empty besides us.
I hope everyone here has someone who loves them as much as Tim Burchett loves talking about UFOs.
Well if anyone is super connected to the thoughts of NFL execs, it's surely Nick fricking Adams

Secondly, will not watch given his recent ICE comments. I support enforcing US immigration laws.

A homosexual Latin rapper mumbling gibberish is not entertaining for Americans like myself.


I thought this board boycotted the NFL altogether years ago.
Of course they did. They can't ok Texas's plan and not ok California's without looking massively biased.

Ehhh....his legislative habits lately are very suspect


Really? Can you give us an example?
Should be a lot of fun if this suit gets to discovery.
All of the colleges there can't be that liberal. I assume the majority of Oklahoma's politicians got their degrees somewhere in the state. How did they not get indoctrinated?

It is impossible for a county to flip that much in one election cycle without cheating. How can people forget so quickly how bad things were just a year ago and not realize how much better their lives are today


How did they cheat? I thought Texas had pretty robust voter id laws?

never thought I’d see the day where Trump gets shot, wins the popular vote, has house senate and USSC and we have cheese dicks like Massie thinking he’s in a battle with the president.


Is he in a battle with the President or just his Department of Justice over the contents of the Epstein list?
quote:

I’m fully convinced that you know exactly what you’re talking about and that your point is solid and clear; however, I believe you’re probably the only person that feels that way.


Massie espouses every conservative ideal that this board claims to believe in and has for as long as I can remember. The only reason he's found his way on everyone's shite list here is due to his lack of loyalty to the President, which is apparently the new bedrock of belief for Conservatives.
quote:

The thing is, he believes this will get him reelected.

"I'm the only one fighting this fight".

His internal polling must be horrible.


I never thought I'd see the day that so many on this board would turn on Massie. Like it's been brewing for a little while, but he's so ideologically in step with this place that it's still a little shocking.
quote:


bullshite. They advocate for themselves and lobbyists. The state government has zero representation in the federal system under the 17th amendment. Before the 17th the senators were selected to represent the state government, the house of representatives were supposed to represent the people of the state.


What makes you think having the legislature appointing the Senate would change that?
quote:

The 19th is the one that needs to go for sure. Women lack the logic needed to make sound political decisions.



I don't know if you've noticed, but a lack of logic hasn't been just a woman thing these days.
quote:

You are exactly right. Now imagine how your state legislator, that you voted for, feels when his voice gets blunted? A state legislature can certainly put much more pressure on a US Senator than the state citizens.


I'll choose supporting the rights of the voters over the rights of politicians every time.
quote:

When senators are selected by the legislature, that senator is going to do what the state legislature wants them to do. Today senators do what their party tells them to do.


You know that they're going to do what their party tells them to do whether we put them into office or the state legislatures do, right?
quote:

The Senate was intended to represent the state governments in Congress. We the people are represented by the House of Representatives. That’s why the Founders structured the Senate to be selected by the state legislatures. We elect our state legislators, they in turn elect our state’s two senators. Or at least that’s how it was originally done until 1913


And that made sense when states were more independent entities from the federal government. That's not really the case now. What is the state legislature going to advocate for that the people wouldn't already do for themselves?

Blunting your voice and mine isn't something that should be done lightly.
Senators already advocate for their state under the current system. What's the benefit of returning their selection to state legislatures?

You people are legit retarded.

Fixing a crisis that he created with the same agreement the US already had is some real Art of the Deal shite.

Personally I can’t see the purpose of a battleship in today’s warfare but then I guess it depends what they decide to outfit onto it and if they’ve got good ideas for that then sure


I'm convinced these are a new generation of frigate or cruiser and someone told Trump they were battleships because that's what he'd understand.

I'll believe that part when I see it.
quote:

I often find myself casually scrolling past a TV at the gym or a newspaper heading at grocery, or opening up a web browser at work and see the headlines or some chyron stating “Federal Judge blocks Trump on X, Y, Z”

It’s almost constant. Yet I don’t recall one single federal judge so much as slowing Biden’s administration down one bit.

So how do these left wing judges in random jurisdictions always end up getting to make an injunction on a policy from the Trump administration. Could another random judge somewhere simply over rule that judge’s ruling?

This process seems incredibly confusing and quite frankly, an actual attack on democracy if I’ve ever seen one.


The Trump administration is a big believer in the Unitary Executive Theory which places a bigger emphasis on governing via the Office of the President than previous administration. As a natural result, Trump is going to assert authority in areas that the President typically had not previously. And in response courts are going to check some of those actions if there's no precedence for them and let it get appealed to the Supreme Court to get a ruling.

I am curious why you feel like this is an attack on Democracy?
The Congressional battle to try and pass this is going to be hilarious.
It's wild how we can find (borrow) an extra half trillion dollars out of the blue and the debt hawks on this board be ok with it.

Exactly. We took Afghanistan and Iraq with virtually no losses. Both affairs went flawlessly.

He's from that Libertarian school that sticks foreign affairs in a back closet somewhere to be forgotten about. He's consistent if nothing else.

The speed that about half this board stopped caring about the Epstein files is honestly impressive.
