My solution was documented here, early on. We should have given Ukraine everything they needed instead of pussyfooting around.. I'd have taken it right to Putiin's front lawn and carpet bombed Red Square but I'm not a military expert.. I think that the Russian military is so outdated and depleted that they wouldn't even know if their missiles would work.. Plus after all these years we know where all their silos are and could hit them before a launch was even instructed..
It's disingenuous to say that Obama handed Crimea over. 10-20 years ago Ukraine was ripe with corruption and was not to be trusted. Things change and so did its leadership in that time.. People are still making up stuff about Zelensky and guess who those people are? Remember the "perfect phone call"?
It's not weakness to keep your troops out of harm's way and watch from afar. NATO countries are all at the ready and have all beefed up their borders.
It's better to slow play than to go all in but again I'm not a military strategist..
We have China boxed in like a turtle's pecker and they have never fought a foreign war. Sure, all the posturing makes it look fancy but real time action is a whole different story.

I'm really sad that you underestimate ours and our ally's military by calling them "weak". That's fucking nonsense and you know that.

So what's your solution? Instead of sanctions should we just mobilize our military and go blow the shit out of them? Should we just turn our backs and let them run roughshod over our allies?
Like most normal GOP'ers, you offer a ton of criticism but you have no solutions. Division is all you're interested in. Around here wee call them poo flingers.
he might have been, but he certainly dropped the ball. I'm sorry, I don't want to make this into a Comey roast. I'll stop but I blame him for as much as I blame Wray now....
and don't even get me started on Garland. I hope Mitch the turtle dies a slow death..
just google 'predatory loans US' and see what they do to our less fortunate every time we try to reach out and help. I'm not saying I'm part of any party but if human decency was a choice I'll join that team in a second.. (hint, hint)

I'm an odd person too but I never was head of the FBI and got duped by a con man. Send me all his books, sometimes I can use extra toilet paper or a little kindling for my fire pit.
That will never happen. They are just as bad as the Ayatollah's. One passes, another one steps up, even if they have to kill their family members to get into power. It will go on for the rest of both of our lives.
I give him no pass. He completely blew FBI protocol and singlehandedly gave the 2016 election to that guy. I'm sure he feels bad about it now, but it seems they all do. Funny how your tune changes after you get screwed over by the guy you helped due to nothing but partisan leaning idiocy.
At least he's got the guts to say he's voting for Joe again, unlike those other tools.
Yes, you are right. I should have went Jason Day or Adam Scott.... what a damn shame that LIV tour is.
that's why they have built in pouches.. 😁 The dudes just throw their wallet and phones to their lady friends.
OK my bad. But my point still stands. Detroit is far from a rust belt. Kind of like your old coal towns.. Is that the dems fault too?
It's on its way back.. slowly but surely.. it's been some time since I was there and now you make me want to go back and check it out again.

It's a more nuanced situation I guess but we can't just take the price of eggs and call it inflation..
https://hbr.org/2022/12/what-causes-inflation
The fast food chains are all adjusting now too. Of course it will never be good enough for people who miss the good old days of the threat of catching a deadly virus but I'd say we've recovered fairly well and are moving in the right direction.
do you understand what inflation is? Maybe if the GOP didn't crush our tax revenues giving money away to the top 1%, we might have not been in the spot we were. Corporate greed has zero to do with inflation.
That isn't the only pandemic we've experieced in the last 15 years.. Do Ebola or H1-N1 ring a bell? You don't remember because the Obama admin got out ahead of it and another's admin cut all the funding and wanted to get rid of the FDA and CDC.
Guess who that was?
yep, because you're such an educated bunch that has all the answers.

Those are just the Fangaroos. Greg Norman is probably up on the green going for the course record and they don't want to miss any of the action. 😏

If you stop the video before it starts, you can see that the place is all piece mealed together in the first place. The beams should be continuous and protected by outer ribbons, none of it looks close to level at all.. not to mention, no other structure around it seemed the least bit harmed except for the port o potty. It wasn't a tornado, it was just a solid straight line wind which really shouldn't effect a structure that is completely wide open like that.
The wind would just blow right through it if it was built properly, maybe the roof could have been compromised but it shouldn't have taken the whole structure with it and if you look, there were cross braces in the interior... I suspect the video might not be all that real because any residential construction crew in their right mind sheets the walls before they stand them. To come back and wrap a house after the sticks are up is a huge waste of time and money.
It could have been some kind of half assed attempt by a team of people who really didn't know what the hell they were doing, but that's hard to say..
I'm glad to see the fish coming back to the river. A lot of people worked very hard to clean that cesspool up.. White bass aren't really the cleanest sign but wrapping up those smallies is. I hope it keeps on going.
Man, I told you cutting costs by not using nails would amount to no good, but you just didn't want to listen.

Yep, it was a tough go for Xander there at the end with the mud balls but he kept his composure and worked his way through it. Congrats to him and his Wanamaker trophy. He deserved it all.
Janice made a good point too that really didn't cross my mind.. I was thinking more of big board traders and not penny stock people. A lot of that is also a drag on those large firms because they have to produce actual money for the clearing houses, regardless of the inexperience of their customers or what tier they like to deal with.
There's a lot of problems with OTC stocks that they can easily be put on the hook for until trades clear, so taking the platform away reduces their own risk. It hurts actual experienced traders that only deal in blue chips but nobody is using algorithms for those garbage penny stocks. In fact most of these places would probably rather see the OTC shut down for good.

PGA star Bryson DeChambeau stopped a man who intercepted a golf ball DeChambeau tossed to a little kid and made him give the ball back to the young fan.

Well done, @b_dechambeau. You’ve made a fan for life. pic.twitter.com/41E7cOQYov
I saw the tournament. I love me some good golf. If I was in those situations today, my knees would be knocking. LOL I'd be lucky to hold my putter steady without passing out.
The toilet bowl putt he made was fantastic stuff..
Just my 2 cents as I don't have a dog in this fight but I think that the large brokerage firms are trying to push out the accomplished day traders from home like Zab.. He sits at home, sets his orders and screws up the larger firm's algorithms that they use to move the market..
If they make it harder for folks like him, it most likely helps them in the long run because it's easier for them to control the flow of market activity without outside influence of good traders that don't use algorithms to get through the day.
Now, that's just pure speculation on my part and I could be way off the mark but in my mind it makes sense.. The large firms discourage day trading and just want everyone to be "investors", in other words, "just park all your money with us and we'll take care of you" .. It's not fair but I think that trend has been happening for awhile now.
Yes, there are both sides to every debate. OMFG.

he must have gotten stuck.. I'm surprised he just didn't start babbling like he normally does. Mr. big brain can't even keep track of what he said three seconds ago.. He's really going to wow everyone at the debates. That's if he even shows up.

devon archer is in jail, so why not? (Nothing to do with Hunter) Everyone around trump goes to the can, so it must be a coming of age type of thing for these folks.
https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/devon-archer-sentenced-year-and-day-prison-fraudulent-issuance-and-sale-more-60-million
again, Hunter Biden had absolutely nothing to do with public policy. He never ran for any type of office.. You piss and moan about presidential kids being off limits but you sure like to attack them at your convenience when it suits your agenda.
Devon Archer didn't prove a damn thing, except for the fact that he worked with Hunter. Fuck, if my father was the vice president I'd have tried to get a little clout for that too. The only difference is that Hunter is an accomplished, well educated, well spoken corporate attorney and I'm just a jackass.
You don't pay any attention to that shit though. You just blame, blame, blame because you got fucked somewhere down the line and your father was not the vice president either.
of course I have a little kid still in me. 😇
my church... Happy Sunday.
yeah, I'd like to see some real chopped steak in there myself too and make them more like the tacos I'm used to.. Of course I'd just go in for a whole giant burrito and spare the mess.. jalapeños, avocado, carrots, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, beans and something other than american cheese.
Like he said, just make a burger.
I said I'm probably a bit naive but I never stop trying.
LOL did you see chef's latest? Hamburger cones.
Seems like a lot of work and a mess to eat but I might give one a try if we can get a little mustard and ketchup in there..

Jared worked in the White House shaping foreign policy.. do you see the difference?
I know people from all sides of the spectrum and I really think we are all good inside. I might be a little naive about that but it's just who I am. LOL I'm getting reminded of the story that I think I shared here on the day they called the election for Biden.
I was working downtown with a guy who has since moved to GA but he was an awesome carpenter. Also an awesome racist and a huge Trump fan. He is about 6'6, big gun guy and wasn't afraid to throw his weight around..
On that day, we were coming out of work and he put his Trump facemask on. We didn't know the outcome of the election yet but there were a bunch of people in the streets partying.. LOL a couple of little cute black girls came up and grabbed him. I thought he was going to lose it, but he went along with them. I stayed on the sidewalk because we had over a thousand dollars of tools on our carts and I wasn't leaving those behind..
I lost him in the crowd for a bit but he came back a few minutes later without his trump mask, just wearing a plain N-95, beet red in the face and a weird look in his eyes. He grabbed me and said thanks for watching his tools then told me if I ever told anyone what had just happened, he'd beat me to a pulp.. I believed him so I never said a word.
He was out there getting his groove on. Probably something he never experienced like that in his life. We all can be reformed, it just takes the right type of "therapy".
I agree with you there.. He is quite the pathetic character and it's not like I haven't gone rounds with him in multiple years for that reason. If your life sucks, there are ways to make it better. I had to learn the hard way myself but I never blamed anyone else for my shortcomings. I try to rise above them and hopefully carry a few others with me too.
