Have you never heard the term: accomplice?

I have an Honorable Discharge, but I don’t remember considering the Constitution much while I was earning it and I don’t understand why you bring it up. You don’t seem to be strong on communication skills, you certainly have misconstrued this subject. NBC and it’s ’gotcha’ headline works for a minute, but disintegrates quickly upon honest review. Sorry, but TDS only works on the fellow afflicted.

“Don’t you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?” This is the question he was asked. The context of the question is irrelevant. Why? Because one of the things that is in the oath of office, very similar to the same oath I took when I joined the military, is that I will protect and uphold the constitution. You either uphold it or you don't. You don't get to pick and choose which parts you don't want to follow. Which is why I believe Trump answered the way he did. Because he doesn't feel like he should have to, even though he took an oath saying he would. That's not how this works. Either you do it or you don't. And if you don't then he shouldn't be president. Just like if I didn't do what I was supposed to or did only what I felt like, I'd have been kicked out of the military.

Looking at his wrestle stat, and looking at the current rules for red shirt/med shirt and covid year, I don’t see this happening. 2020- Freshman 2021 - Sophomore 2022- Still a sophomore because of free covid year in 2021. 2023- Still a sophomore because of a medical shirt taken in 2022. 2024- Junior 2025- Senior * He never took a red shirt but you can’t use red shirts retroactively. Even if you could, he would not qualify for a red shirt in 2020, 2023, 2024, or 2025 due to the fact that he wrestled in duals each of those years. * Some said that he was trying to retroactively get approved for a medical shirt. The rules say that it needs to be done in a timely manner although that is quite vague. What is not too vague, is the rules that state it needs to be a season ending injury in the first half of the season. You also cannot have wrestled in more than 30% of teams matches. The only seasons that he could be trying to get a med shirt for would be 2023, or 2024. In 2023 he wrestled in much more than 30% of his teams matches, having wrestled in 8 of their duals plus Midlands. In 2024, he went way past the half way point of the season having wrestled in a dual meet every week of January with his last one coming on January 27, just 5 weeks prior to conferences. 2020 he wrestled at Big Tens…2021 was the free covid year so you can’t be awarded an extra year that never counted, 2022 he used a medical shirt, and 2025 he AA’d. So unless they completely disregard the rules for 2023 or 2024, he does not qualify for a medical shirt. * I argued with this knuckle head on facebook for far too long in regards to this last point He argued that he could get a red shirt year for 2021. No he can’t. 1- It was the covid year. The covid year was just the year 2021 not counting against ones eligibility. It was not a free year that you use whenever you please 2- He was not a first semester freshman in 2021 and he wrested in duals so no soup for you So does anyone have a clue on how in the world they think he is going to have another year?? Another way to visualize it is he wrestled 6 years and never did he use a red shirt in this time He had 1 medical shirt year 2022 (1/6) He had 1 free covid year 2021 (2/6) He had 4 seasons of wrestling 2020-2023-2024-2025 (6/6)

Great examples! I like the Mean Gene one. The boycott really crushed guys.

Ain’t it amazing?

Doesn't matter. Orange man bad. Orange man wrong. Orange man lies all the time. But wait a minute ... that means he does know.

This is wrong. That is not what he said. He wasn’t answering the question of supporting the Constitution. He answered that when he said he’d do what the Supreme Court said.

For Evan Bates, I have a couple of ideas: 1) Lehigh: Bates is an engineering major and this is Lehigh's specialty. They also have a relative opening at 197 2) Purdue: Another good engineering school - this time in Bates' homestate of Indiana. He would be an upgrade to Vanadia

Good to know Marco was thinking of me.

Like presidents from every era didn’t consult their lawyers as to what was or was not constitutional. Him saying he had to consult his id a big fat nothing burger y’all are trying to blow into something they are not.

Supporting terrorists. I figure falls under #10. So. Bye.

Two wrestler stand out to me. Ivan Yarygin. It's not just the name of a tournament. A great siberian wrestler, extremely strong, and built like a greek god. Pinned everyone at runs at the Europeans, Worlds, and Olympics. He doesn't have the medal haul of other wrestlers, but he was so special. The other one is Tomov. Best wrestler to never win an Olympic Gold. Three times silver medalist and was number one in the world for 15 years. He was so talented that he beat a giant like Rostorotsky, after a 5 year lay off at his first tourney back. Choked terribly at the Olympics each time. If it wasn't for politics, I think he would have finally won at the 84 games.

Which survey says......is part of the Constitution. Which he swore to uphold, in public. And now he "doesn't know" if he's supposed to do that?

In regards to 10, it's so nebulous that it can be applied to anything. The administration is arguing that verbal critique of Israel constitutes material support for Hamas. That's insane. lhan Omar might consider white, gun-owning conservatives to be part of or have ties to domestic terror organizations. That doesn't mean she should try to deport every white, gun owning conservative on that fact alone. They need to break an actual rule, as @mspart correctly pointed out complaining about Biden (who didn't even actually do anything, but set that aside). For example, if the Biden administration tried to deport a white, conservative international student from Hungary simply because he joined the Proud Boys (or insert any far-right group), that would be wrong. Having principles isn't actually that hard.

at the time when the Moscow Olympics were boycotted, I thought mean Gene could beat anyone and perhaps by fall But it was not a studied understanding - just my impression and way before there was so much data to review

Yet, the students being deported are not being accused of that. Rubio throws that in there to get people like you to associate every student deported for political reasons with the students who did break the law at Columbia. If they broke the law or school rules, that could be a reason to revoke Visa status. But again, they have not been accused of doing that.

It certainly doesn’t blow anyone’s mind that you’re ignoring the ones that did.

Fine upstanding citizens right ? That’s peaceful fire right ?

This may blow your mind, but not every pro-Palestine protestor participated in those events.

I KNOW

It is disingenuous to say that his remark is in response to following the Constitution. It is obviously directed toward the question of what level of due process is required.

As a side note, Lamer isn't in the portal - he signed with Oregon State.

Happy to see Horwath again.
