re: U.S. creates $1.7B ‘lawfare’ fund in exchange for Trump dropping $10B IRS suit

Same country, a-hole. It's not sports. Take off your blinders. This is good for very few folks, and it certainly won't make the Republican Party "rich."
That party will be left with so much contingent liability out of its relatively recent loss of moral center, that it will continue to spend so much just to stay in power that it would make a Democrat blush.

Yep, the bulls are one of the best run organizations of the last 10 years.
It's really longer than that. Other than their run and the one or two years before Derrick Rose started leaking hydraulic fluid everywhere, they're historical dog shite.
Great illustration is that Jerry Reinsdorf has owned them and White Sox for 40 years and is only worth $2B.

OP should update to mention the list is unranked. It's still crap.
List needs Fogerty and Petty as well as the others y'all have mentioned.

Sorry, but the episode of Dark matter where she's blonde is her best.

And basketball would’ve been even worse.
I’m not saying it’s close, just saying it’s the one that is least far away from the male counterpart. It’s the same dimensions, and there’s not something like dunking that exists in one, but not the other. It’s fundamentally the same game, they’re just weaker and worse. The two forms of basketball are practically different sports.

Women's soccer is the sport that gets closest to its men's counterpart, so this theoretically could work. That said, I think there are probably fewer female actresses that can pull off athletic competency than men. If they don't cast well, it'll be hard for a lot of people to get past that.

The problem with a high basketball IQ guy is their patience and ability to communicate. A whiny guy like Chris Paul looks like he would have trouble communicating to someone with a lower IQ. I don't remember Rondo's body language being poor in a whiny way.
Lasting change comes from leaders, temporary change comes from bosses. This team needs to be led, not bossed.

I understand what you're trying to say, but your wording sucks and your argument is immediately diluted for it.
"Freedom from speech" would be people seeking refuge from the hurtful words, in this case the Trumps and their supporters.

Because they assume people will tolerate woke progressive boogeymen for the sake of more stability than we're currently experiencing.
