Hope they have good good dirt on some of them and they get tossed in jail

Pedo Trump already admitted he'd weaponize DOJ so none of this should be a surprise.

That's how they do it in the dirty and corrupt south. You think the Clinton's were the only Arkansas governors to do that? Bs.

Cool link in the comments. https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2017/06/the-clintons-had-slaves the Clinton’s had slaves: Hillary Clinton was, however, generous enough to allow inmates from Arkansas prisons to work as unpaid servants in the Governor’s Mansion. In It Takes a Village, Hillary Clinton writes that the residence was staffed with “African-American men in their thirties,” since “using prison labor at the governor’s mansion was a longstanding tradition, which kept down costs.” It is unclear just how longstanding the tradition of having chained black laborers brought to work as maids and gardeners had been. But one has no doubt that as the white residents of a mansion staffed with unpaid blacks, the Clintons were continuing a certain historic Southern practice. (Hillary Clinton did note, however, that she and Bill were sure not to show undue lenience to the sla…servants, writing that “[w]e enforced rules strictly and sent back to prison any inmate who broke a rule.”

Yeah you're right. Bad take on my part, letting my disdain for pyles style of pontification develop into unfair criticisms. i'm not backing my off characterization of Pyles as void of insight and in a constant state of universal pandering, though that was a stupid time to crowbar it in.

Reddit is only good for p0rn and hearsay. also as noted above. Every president since the beginning of time has separated parents from kids when caught doing illegal stuff. Stuff ranging from dui to assault or illegal immigration or anything in between. All babies cry every night. Noting that this particular baby cries every night ads no value to the opinion piece.

You bet. I don’t know who started this nonsense lol. Let me know if you remember who.

"I'll show you what weaponizaton of the justice department looks like!"

Reported by dozens of news outlets: I don’t know who dc draino is. I don’t think they clean pipes though I don’t know who Johnny Midnight is either : The United States Department of Justice has subpoenaed New York Attorney General Letitia James, who had successfully filed a civil lawsuit against US President Donald Trump for alleged fraud in his business dealings. Friday’s subpoenas come as the department convenes a grand jury to investigate whether James, a Democrat, violated the civil rights of President Donald Trump and other Republican-affiliated entities.

Appeals Court Tosses Judge Boasberg’s Contempt Ruling Against Trump Over El Salvador Deportations This tweet is in the article before 1032045&383858 asks if I follow this dude https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/appeals-court-tosses-judge-boasbergs-contempt-ruling-against-trump-over-el-salvador-deportations/amp/

I’m surprised Iowa hasn’t scooped him up. He’d fit right in.

First step: Find the baddest dude in that room and get close to him.

I honestly wonder how much self sabotage was part of Howard’s last few years? He is a legit career broadcaster. His life was centered around ratings for all 40+ years of his career. It is the life blood of tv/radio. In his middle - late years. Let’s say 1995/2000-2012 ish he constantly bragged about his syndication as well as his industry leading ratings. It’s a form of him selling himself to other markets. It was what pushed him into the satellite radio market. He is beyond well aware that he is a slave to ratings. To consciously denigrate half your audience is beyond stupid. Imo there is a 3000% chance idea in he knew this. He knew what he was doing. He started this super liberal behavior around Covid when he was around 66 years old. He is 71 now. He is likely in that phase of his career where he doesn’t care to play the game any more. He is also wealthy so the money is irrelevant. How much of this was conscious and fire me I don’t care?? he used to be friends with Trump. Trump was on his show a ton. For those of you non fans the change was beyond visible. He hated Rosie o’donnell. He hated Ellen. He hated Leno. Larry King. He hated tons of these celebrities he is now buddies with.

As a spectator it's hard to agree with him. Rules: Folkstyle makes sense to people who like fighting. Wrestling definitely is a combat sport. Folkstyle wrestlers transfer to MMA and submission grappling more successfully. Folkstyle rules are less reliant on the officials' judgement. Not having to release a hold before getting more back points is something Freestyle could learn from. Can we limit subsequent rolls to only 1 point each? People fly around the world starving to make weight just to have a 90 second match that could have been competitive. League: The Olympics had 6 weights with 16 wrestlers in each and a repechage which isn't as many matches as consolation bracket. NCAA championships has 33 in 10 weights. A consolation bracket. 7 minute matches. Less passivity/stalling points. Less referee stoppages. More accurate calls about who is doing the stalling/passivity. No grounded out of bounds stoppages. We want more wrestling. Freestyle matches have shorter time limits. They more frequently end before the time limit. There are many times fewer events to watch. It's hard to even find results of national championships held in the major countries like Japan, India, Iran, let alone the minor ones. Google and AI engines can't find them even in those languages. Way easier to find NCAA division 2, 3, and high school. With so little wrestling going on, the freestyle seeds are always way off. They only seed the top 8 which doesn't make sense in a 32 person world championship tournament where unseeded people regularly win. Difficulty: Being a folkstyle wrestler is excruciating - more conditioning, more weigh ins. More rematches mean you both have to adjust. Plus with the skills to be an a NCAA champion, you usually make team USA as long as there isn't another NCAA champ knocking you out. You can wrestle freestyle against similar talent in Japan or the Caucasus region get world level accolades. Or just the Americas and Europe -- You dominate really poor programs and get world level accolades. You don't have to wrestle 25 matches in 4 months. You make weight 3 times in a year on average. Then knock off these guys who are "champions of entire continents". Africa doesn't have any countries trying. The truth is there are hardly any countries developing wrestlers at all let alone talent that wouldn't get teched by the top 5 countries. So that's why wrestlers like freestyle but fans like folkstyle. Some fans get hooked in by the glamour of the Olympics and the mystique of the best foreign wrestlers. With the USA training Freestyle more than in the past, much of that mystique is going away. The competition level is actually lower internationally than in the US in college Jore Volk won u20 gold.

Joey's not really laying out pros and cons. He has an opinion.

i don't think that's true. how about you? is it binary? are you picking Ruiz or would you react with shock and awe if he won? you're saying those are the only choices?

Maestro. You are a very talented man. Captured beautifully. Though my wife was a little freaked out.

Sure ... the more outrage whether original or outrage about outrage the more fun.

What pants?

We can also agree on the fact he hasn't lowered the cost of living

Example of cancel culture: Stating "All lives matter" then losing job of 20+ years the next day. Not examples of cancel culture: Not having your tens of millions of dollars contract renewed because your show loses tens of millions of dollars every year due to your antics alienating 50+% of the population.
