This guy is best known for his geopolitical analyses a la STRATFOR, and isn't what you'd call a liberal, but here he tears into Trump's Ag and HHS appointments on the topics of bird flu and the new hemorrhagic fever in Africa. Worth paying attention to what he says.

Trump goes on a rant about Canada during the interview

In his speech to the joint session of Congress, Bonespurs finally admitted to Americans he lied about prices. As we all know he promised they would go down immediately. That was one of his biggest campaign promises. He now admits that we will have to suffer "a little pain", which everybody knows means a lot of pain. So do all the lemmings in the cult care that they have been lied to again? How many times is this in a row that he has lied to you? The lemmings must either be really embarrassed by now. Or fantastically ignorant.

I wanted to start a new thread on the topic of fan engagement activities, which has popped up across several threads.

More specifically, I'm hoping posters can refresh my memory on why some fan engagement activities ended, and whether or not they could be resurrected. I'm thinking of things like the shirts-and-skins games before home football games, as well as the PTL. Or, in more distant history, things like team tours around the state -- kind of "barn-storming" events.

These are the kinds of things that brought players closer to fans, and I believe could be a strong building block toward building back fan support. That, and making deep NCAA Tourney runs, of course.

During the annual Easter Egg Roll anyway.


CNN — The White House, through an outside event production company called Harbinger, is soliciting corporate sponsors for this year’s Easter Egg Roll, which is prompting major concerns from ethics experts and shock from former White House officials from both parties.

The sponsorship offers range from $75,000 to $200,000, with the promise of logo and branding opportunities, according to a nine-page document sent to potential sponsors and obtained by CNN.

With the clear ignoring of judicial rulings and a Congress that seems rather quiet on those matters, do we still have a Constitutional system of checks and balances?

The UAW and the democrats are the same thing. All the UAW dues goes to democrats all of it. How can this clown now pretend he supports our great president Trump. Guy is a liar like every democrat. He won't be around much longer as the head of UAW.

Just saw this X.

That person seems to have a nose for coaching talent.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A House Republican pushing the Trump administration's government efficiency efforts called for dismantling and defunding the nation's public broadcasting system following a contentious hearing Wednesday featuring the heads of PBS and NPR.

"We believe that you all can hate us on your own dime," said Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Coupled with President Donald Trump's declaration on Tuesday that he would "love to" see federal funding cut off, the nation's public broadcasting system is facing perhaps the biggest threat to its existence since it was first established in 1967. The broadcasters get roughly half a billion dollars in public money through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Republicans have frequently grumbled that PBS and NPR news programming leans left, but efforts to cut or eliminate funding usually fade because legislators want to protect their local stations — 336 of them for PBS alone, with those in rural areas most heavily dependent on taxpayer money.

The pilot took it to 11 pretty quickly. The pilot thought a man was spending too long in the crapper on a flight from Tulum back to the US, and after his friend tried to explain his friend had a little gastrointestinal discomfort, the pilot broke the lock and pulled the man out. The two men were then detained by CPB when the plane landed in Houston.
Love the comments from the CPB officer. "This isn't county or state. This is Homeland. You have no rights here".

It is great to be an Iowa Wrestling fan.

Go Hawks!

How the eff is this helping, Rs?

"Johns Hopkins University announced Thursday that it will be cutting more than 2,000 jobs after it lost $800 million in funding from the US Agency for International Development amid the Trump administration’s effort to significantly downsize the federal government."

In 1830, the Portuguese were starving in Brazil. It was a bad fishing year, and the Indigenous people they had enslaved weren’t providing enough food.

The Portuguese only lived along the coast , even though the country was extremely rich in land and resources.

Brilliant idea, “let’s offer land to the Germans and Italians to come and farm”. Word was sent out and there was massive immigration from Italy, Germany, Scandinavia and smaller countries.

From Rio to the south, these immigrants settled and farmed the land. The state of Santa Catarina had the most Germans.

Some of the southern states spoke German until WW2, when the government outlawed the German schools. My former in-laws spoke German as well as Portuguese.

The NAZIs that escaped to Brazil went to the state of Santa Carolina because they were the most German. They easily dominated the locals and forced them to pay “protection “ money, while living there under the radar. Until Simon Wiesenthal and his Nazi hunters discovered Mengele was living there.

That was the 1970’s. Santa Catarina borders Paraguay and the president was Stroessner, a Nazi sympathizer. So once the chase was on, Mengele hopped to Paraguay. There were literally gun battles on the river.

It made for incredible nightly news and good reels.
