Can you substantiate that he is a rapist? George Stephanopoulous got sued for saying that and lost. The felony conviction was a crazy charge and no one can say what he actually did that was a felony. Not even the judge. I am sure it will be removed when it gets appealed. But as for now, yes, he is a convicted felon. The first article says he lost a lawsuit regarding veterans. But all money raised went to veterans. Doesn't mention children. So how did he steal from veterans and children. So on the whole, you fail the substantiation claim for your allegations. mspart

Please substantiate the allegations. mspart

Other than what you did to get your masters degree, how have you enlarged the understanding in science? I'm assuming you did research for your Masters, it is possible you went the academic route and got it by taking a bunch of classes. mspart

That is very interesting. mspart

Point taken. mspart

Oh, so the Ds are not trying to protect the children. Good of you to acknowledge that by changing your tune. I could go with "The Republicans are protecting the most notorious pedophile ring in the world". But the Ds didn't do much to shine sunlight on this either, they are doing so now only for politics. And my guess is they think it will hurt the Rs worse than the Ds for the upcoming election. That is the only reason this effort is happening now. Where was this righteous anger years ago? Free the files!!! Let them be free! mspart

Ukraine wanted to be part of NATO and there was some consideration for that. Putin didn't like that and started this war to prevent it and gain a buffer. But I think that has been acknowledged and Russia could back out and not have a NATO'd Ukraine as a neighbor. I don't think Ukraine is demanding to be part of NATO anymore. If they are, I think NATO recognizes this would incite more war. This is really a war of conquest. Russia wants control of Ukraine. Ukraine doesn't want that. Left to themselves Russia would have taken them over easily. What would the next target be? Ukraine may be lost as a result or they may be partitioned, but the war has been disastrous for both countries and it would be crazy for Putin to try this again on some other former Soviet satellite. mspart

Is this a bill they are working on or is this a publicity stunt? The files need to be provided as they were advertised to be. That is the right thing to do. Congress really has no say in this, other than to craft a bill and force the President to veto it and then try to override the veto. But just the act of a veto would not be a good look for Trump. Release the Epstein files!!!! mspart

Just like the Ds are protecting the children removed from the pot farm in CA where they were made to work. That's all ok as long as they are illegal aliens. Leave them alone, nothing to see here. Yeah, the Ds are really interested in protecting children. As well as the 300 undocumented adult workers that were there. Leave them alone, we need our pot the Ds cry. Or the 100,00s + undocumented children that crossed the border and are now lost to the federal government because the Biden admin gave them to people without vetting them. Who allowed that to happen and who stopped it? Don't even go there UB. It is not an argument you can win. mspart

This shows that Trump is truly in the puppet master Putin's pocket. Trump tries to negotiate end to war. Putin effectively gives Trump the finger. Trump says now 100% tariffs on all Russian goods coming to US. In addition tariffs on countries that buy Russian oil or gas. That's right where Putin wanted to be I have no doubt. mspart

Futbol in spanish. Maybe it should be called pelota de pie instead. mspart

He may not be aging well, but I htink he has not recovered from what ever injuries he has suffered. It is really tough to get injured and then have enough energy to come back and perform at top level. mspart

Yes, Vito has so much potential, but it appears Jax does as well. What an incredible performance. mspart

It will end up in the National Archives. Anyone with common sense would ask why FIFA president would give it to Trump in the first place. This was done in March. Why did you not raise a stink then? mspart

What have you done in the last 4+ years? mspart

I've never been to than all day concert like that. It sounds like a great show. I saw Pink Floyd in 87 during their first water's-less tour. I felt the bass was way too amped up. I guess that is just the live Floyd sound. Before the ones I mentioned I've seen BOC, UFO, Nugent, Heart, AC/DC with Nugent as their first big tour of the US I think, Kansas. In college Doobie Bros, Heart, Elton John with original members, Journey were shows that came to the university. We got in most of those for free. You just wait outside for 30 minutes and a couple would come out and we'd grab their tickets. Never failed. mspart

You don't read very well. It has since been revealed that the intricate prize hoisted aloft by the London club’s captain, Reece James, was a replica because the president of football’s governing body, FIFA, has let Trump use the original as an ornament in the Oval Office. The trophy, crafted in collaboration with Tiffany & Co, features a central disc with three rotating outer rings. It has a 24-carat gold-plated finish and is thought to have cost around $230,000 to make. If FIFA lets Trump keep the orbital award for good, it is likely to end up in the National Archives. The trophy was given to Trump by the FIFA President. And this was done in March. Perhaps you should take this up with him. mspart

Agreed. I have said here many times to release the Epstein files. I don't feel the need to respond each time this comes up in some thread. I also say deport Abrego as he is here illegally. Period. mspart

My son is Hawaiian as he was born there, so he should get special benefits as an islander, right? Our other kids were young enough to ask if he would look hawaiian with darker skin or look white? A very innocent question really. mspart

I love going to concerts. The Lynyrd Skynrd/ZZtop concert was good. What I didn't know was the Outlaws was the opening act and they were playing while we were on our way to the arena. We got there just as they were halfway through Green grass and High tides encore. I love that song. That got me in the mood for the concert. ZZTOP was ok, not energetic, Billy's vocals were not very clear, his voice is giving out. But his playing was top notch as always. LS came out like they owned the place and gave a really good concert for having no originals left. I saw them in UT with the survivors in 1987. Allen Collins was in a wheelchair due to his accident and subsequent health issues and did not play. That was a good concert. I saw the Rossington Collins band in Seattle somewhere around 1981 or 1983. That was a good concert! mspart

I dragged my wife to hte BB King show in Honolulu after I saw him in Seattle. Fantastic show in Seattle, it was great. So I took her when we lived in HI. He sat down for the show because of his diabetes, but the show was almost as good, again a great show. She is not one for Blues, and I cannot call a BB King concert a blues concert, more of a jazz/blues concert. Anyway, she enjoyed it and noted that she felt like she was seeing history. His band was great to watch and listen to. mspart

Lynyrd Skynyrd/ZZ Top Auburn, WA 2025 Billy Joel Seattle, WA 2025 Now I'm guessing BB King, Honolulu 2004 Journey, Honolulu 2003 BB King Seattle, or Yes Seattle, or Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe Seattle, 1988-1994 mspart

I have been following this thread but I don't remember seeing why Arnold is no longer with Iowa. Has that been established? mspart

That was tough. He says he is gaining strength everyday and I hope that continues. Died 4 times! Wow. Keep on keepin' on Ben! mspart

Ding ding ding ding. I'm the winner. I predicted the response. Or at least what the response would not say. Beyond pathetic. After multiple chances, I can only conclude that RV wants ICE agents dead same as this candidate. UB's turn!! mspart
