People without lots of money really don't count with these moronic sociopaths.

Sir, nobody knows better than you the difference between wanting to win and being desperate to win.

But very desperate to turn a profit, based on their loyal fanbase, tobwhich I also belong.

The best thing Virginia can do to protect itself from Trump is to elect the Statewide ticket and increase our majority in the HOD. A Republican AG can do a lot to make us more vulnerable to Trump.

I don't mind a team that loses, I was a Yankee fan starting in 1966. I do mind a team that doesn't care. I think the players care, but management does not.

George was too quick to fire managers, but Boone is a team spokesperson and ritual apologist who likes to argue balls and strikes. He, Cashman, and Hal are not desperate to win, which George was. And it's Gene Michael, not Cashman, that built the team that won 4 WSs.

They worked hard on his dosing today, but didn't quite get it right. Well, tomorrow is another day.

So Dear Leader can bend the time space continum, and within hours grow back an ear that was shot off. May he live a thousand years.

Basic fundamentals cost them two games in the WS last year. They don't care about playing people out if their best position, have a DH who can't run, and have made poor fundamentals a part of their culture. And I'm a Yankee fan, not a hater.

Did he say that at a time in the past the Navy buried wolf packs at the bottom of Manila Bay with techniques discovered by the descendants of people in the audience he's speaking to today?

Who knew Harry Truman and George Marshall were woke. Maybe woke means smart.

Hitchens and Andrew Sullivan were/are awful people.

If you were really doung this without fear or favor you'd not bother sides this with it's not clear. Its prohibited bybstature. Just say that.

Is it hard to say Federal law prohibits.? Up until 1866 it was a tradition, now it's a legally binding statue.

He loves cats, so there is a lot of good in him.

The intent is clear -- can't blame him -- but capacity is another matter. "Likely" carries a lot of weight here. But, as usual ICE decided to escalate.

Likely to escape is not an easy standard when the person in question has a broken leg.

He won't lose votes from the MAGA base, but that is not enogh to win. Very few low-engagement voters waiting for the Nazi-porn candidate to emerge, but there are probably a few. He certainly has the Nazi porn lane to himself.

This will be very popular with the troops.

Aside from the statement not being accurate, is his contention that undocumented migrants should die so I can have shorter waiting times?

Open and honest about his dementia. If it was so open, why was it deleted.

It will, however, give them time to make adjustments to their investment portfolios

The one thing they won't do is negotiate on good faith. The ACA subsidies and Medicaid cuts translate into peoples' lives. What we should expect is that Republicans agree. If they don't, they can abolish the filibuster and take, forva second time, responsibility for killing their own voters.

Maybe allowing food, water, and medicine in, not killing people and destroying their homes and hospitals and aid stations, and rebuilding Gaza would be a more effective deradicalization strategy. No doubt many other things as well, but this would be a start.

It's even worse when Trump is talking about deploying our military in major American cities governed by Democrats. Having an unhinged unstable Secretary of "War" unleashing troops with killing and breaking things and disregard for rules of engagement on US soil will not end well.

Medicare and Social Security are mandatory appropriations and not subject to or dependent upon annual appropriations.

You can barely count on Republicans to donwhatvis enacted into law or a court order, informal commitments are worthless.
