“The Trump admin says.” Never have words had less meaning.

If the plan is to eventually get Gabe back on the 53, I think there’s a better chance that either Samuel or Moore would be let go before Shavers at this point.

The presumption was that justice was served with the conviction of and 20 year sentence given to Ghislaine Maxwell along with the death of Epstein. It wasn’t until Trump and Co. made it a campaign issue that the subject was re-opened, his constituents demanded the files be made public, and Bondi decided to lie about them that new cries for justice were heard. Given that new focus and the victims’ public outcries over a convicted sex trafficker and abuser being given preferential treatment with a transfer to a country club prison, it’s no wonder that so many are calling for justice to be served again. Everyone wanted justice for those victims when the case was adjudicated in 2021. Who new that Trump would make a travesty of that justice. This is all on him and him alone.

Goebbles would be so proud of this effort: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/04/03/2025-05838/restoring-truth-and-sanity-to-american-history

In this case yes, because it’s a legitimate use of the NY NG in response to a sudden increase of crimes in the NY subway system in coordination with mayor Adams and the NYPD. If you’re attempting to make the same false equivalency to her and mayor Adams’s decision with Trump’s, I don’t accept that in the least and it’s a complete waste of both our time debate the issue further.

The difference is that BOTH the city mayor and the governor, in a COORDINATED effort, are deploying additional police force in response to A REAL EMERGENCY SPIKE IN SUBWAY CRIME as opposed to Trump’s made up crap about crime rates in BLUE CITIES IN BLUE STATES ONLY. If the fascist in chief really cared, he would be deploying additional police in red states where crime rates are REALLY higher. The Washington Examiner: just another right wing rag making yet another false equivalency.

The Epstein files aren’t just about Trump, although that’s the biggest reason why Bondi & Co. lied about them. The Epstein files are about exposing and bringing to justice every pedophile sexual abuser involved. Have you read any of what the victims had to say? I thought Republicans were all about victim rights.

I understand workplace politics and who knows what specific DOJ workplace policies are in effect. I was merely pointing out that the employee was exercising protected speech and that Bondi overreacted by firing the employee. But speaking of free speech, how about that Cheeto in Chief seeking to make flag burning a felony punishable by a year in prison? He loves him some fascism, doesn’t he?

While perhaps repulsive, giving somebody the finger is free speech. Just as burning the flag is. Another overreach by the clueless Attorney General.

Perhaps a little reminder is in order. Nope, no smoke here: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/assault-allegations-donald-trump-recapped

You shouldn’t hang me on a hook, Johnny. My grandmother hung me on a hook once. Once!

Trump and Vance are not even the head of the snake. This entire rotten, anti-American, fascist movement needs to be wiped out in its entirety.

This is most likely part of Peter Thiel’s Palantir system designed to centralize a data base on Americans comprised of systems across a myriad federal agencies with the SSA and IRS among them. Peter Thiel is a fascist who favors a dictatorship as opposed to a democracy as he freely admits and is good friends with Vance. This is all public record.

Media spin or not, routine crossings or not, extra questions or not, Sabre fans or not, the fact remains that Canadian visits dropped by 37% in July compared to 2024. This has hurt businesses on the border that have long depended on those Canadian customers.

Getting minutes in games is only part of the equation in terms of development as practicing with major leaguers lends a certain level of development as well. Not to mention the other ancillary aspects of being in the show.

I don’t disagree in general and as you say, it depends on the player. Benson has more hockey sense and skill than half of the older players on the team. He certainly has more heart and hustle as well. Instead of his development being stunted by not returning to juniors, his development has been accelerated by having to acclimate to the NHL early on. He will be that much more developed when he reaches the age he would have been by waiting. Perhaps a season or two in the A would have been beneficial but imo, additional time in juniors would have been of little to no benefit to his development. He had already surpassed that level of play.

This notion that an 18 year old right out of juniors can’t develop in the NHL is absurd.

Fascism 101: use the military to police the citizenry: check; defy the judiciary: check; seek to control financial institutions: check; use armed, masked police force to arrest and detain people in “concentration camps”: check; target & harass political enemies: check Need I go on? What will it take for his supporters to say he’s gone too far?

“A lot of people” means his big donor and Vance best friend, Peter Thiel, who flat out says we need to get over our fear of dictators. A lot of other billionaire donors feel the same way. Curtis Yarvin is another right wing nut job advocating for the end of democracy as well.

It isn’t so much the who as it is the what, but Putin and the Russian army and their entire propaganda campaign for starters. That’s our flag for our military to fly and it has no business being flown by another military; especially by a dictator-led, corrupt, adversarial country like Russia.

This is beyond disgusting: https://www.nbcnews.com/video/russian-state-media-shares-video-of-vehicle-flying-u-s-and-russian-flags-in-ukraine-245202501997

Ironic coming from the party always pissing and moaning about how the left always wants to change history by removing statues. Never mind that those statues honor traitors to our country which is another irony in itself.

My original OP was a reference to the increase in the wholesale price of vegetables specifically. The article I linked discussed other aspects of the PPI. I wasn’t trying to mislead anyone. Regardless, the rise in wholesale prices is a cause for concern by those who monitor these matrices as my second linked article indicated.

Yep. Trump got owned in another propaganda win for Putin as evidenced by the news today that Trump has moved off his calls for a ceasefire. Summits like this are measured by an important metric: what did our president gain for the American people? Nothing.

Only the most dangerous my a$$. The lack of humanity and common decency is astounding. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-08-14/an-l-a-area-high-school-senior-was-walking-his-dog-then-ice-agents-grabbed-him
