Given this country’s proximity to war in Eastern Europe and the Pacific, when the reason for supplying cluster bombs is because we’re out of everything else, and Weimar level inflation at the loss of Global Reserve Currency status, I cannot fathom the envy or jealousy that would require to vote for the man who single-handedly put us in this position because he is beholden to both China and Ukraine.

Quick check in on Tucker Carlson's "video views"
Offthemat replied to VakAttack's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
The ever sequestered moderate democrat. He appeared a while back when the House voted to pass a law that required normal protective care to an infant born alive after an attempted abortion. “Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas was the only Democrat voting with Republicans in support of the bill.” https://abcnews.go.com/US/born-alive-bill-passed-house-republicans-require-care/story?id=96389440 Not to start an argument over abortion, but if there’s only one democrat in the House that will vote to protect a baby, how many extremists are there? -
Some of the unrest is over non-citizens.

Here’s a snippet from an article on the subject: ”The munitions typically release large numbers of smaller bomblets that can kill indiscriminately over a wide area, threatening civilians. Bomblets that fail to explode pose a danger for years after a conflict ends.” It uses the term “munitions” and then introduces a new term “bomblets.” Do we know from where bomblets come from?

Lawyers don’t decide, they just present offers, and it works the same for both sides. If Dominion was so confident, why’d they settle for so much less? -
Good question. There are different grades of shelters and different sizes and types of explosives. Best to only have to use them for weather protection.

You’ve got a lot of nerve. Munitions my ass. It’s an explosion whether it was dropped from the sky, fired out of a cannon, a car bomb, a pipe bomb, or whatever. The complaint about these is the unexploded parts (your UXO, o is for ordinance) that can be accidentally detonated by innocent civilians and it doesn’t matter if russia is using them, two wrongs don’t make a right.

Lots of people wanted to see the Dominion case tried because they thought it was frivolous, and that a trial would show the liabilities of the Dominion machines. Tucker didn’t say much, if anything, about the machines, some of his guests did, and some of those statements, like their ability to be remotely changed, have been shown to be true. I don’t know why they settled, but I don’t think they did it to protect Tucker. -
If you consider objects that are propelled through the air and explode upon landing or contacting something to be a bomb, then they are bombs. When reports say the artillery bombed so and so, it means the same thing as if they say they shelled so and so.

I don’t know how that all works. I watched a couple of his episodes on different sites and noticed there was no count number and no place to like it either. I don’t know if that counted as a view for Tucker or the other site. But I think Tucker will be alright. He’s nothing like some of the descriptions spouted here. Tucker did well in O’Reilly’s spot because he was better than O’Reilly. -
Don’t we all remember the Titan sub. They knew as soon as it happened but didn’t report it for a week.

Should the court order a drug test for hunter? Could a positive result invalidate his plea? oh, there’s other things I’m watching too. Like china, the southern border, inflation, manufacturing output, the cdc, etc.

Will it involve diplomatic immunity?

In high school we went to a tournament every year that the Oklahoma School for the Blind wrestled. I never wrestled a blind guy, but some of them did well in the tournament. Our coach who never wrestled in his life, but knew you had to be in good condition to wrestle, was so impressed by them that he had us practice with our eyes closed, (he made some guys wear blindfolds). It was interesting and I think it helped me, but I never wrestled a match with my eyes closed.

It was a threat. They complied, therefore no action taken. Ain’t that the way it works? -
I keep hearing Wittlake isn’t coming back.

Your thoughts on SCOTUS decision on student loan denial
Offthemat replied to Paul158's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Yes, he did, but I want to clear something up here. Everything on my list may not be entirely exactly tied to a biden EO canceling a Trump EO, but then again, it might. Some definitely did. Biden’s EO canceling the pipeline and ‘pausing’ production on federal lands did. Go to the chart you linked and check the 5, 10, or 25 year chart from the bar above and you’ll see what I mean. After trying to get oil from Saudi Arabia, Russia, and venezuela, and selling half our Strategic Petroleum Reserve he succumbed to public pressure and has opened up some areas, but is only recently approaching pre-pandemic levels. His early actions and words destroyed the ability to plan operations. Oil companies don’t operate by getting a permit and drilling a well or two, they do exploration and plan fields of production. Financing, critical to the endeavor, can make or break on a percent of perceived profit that take years to come. Biden killed that and then the congress passed legislation that included increasing the royalties the gov’t retains. Domestic oil producers are to be commended for their efforts to maintain production as they have dealt with this. Cutting production as biden did, caused a shortage worldwide which drove fuel prices up, which, in turn, caused prices to go up, which caused workers to demand pay raises, which is inflation. 81 million votes, my ass. -

As I suspected, your arguments are disingenuous. -
