Former NFL MVP Roman Gabriel Dies at Age 83
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/roman-gabriel-nfl-mvp/2024/04/21/id/1161873/
Roman Gabriel, who had a 16-year quarterback career in the NFL with numerous accolades, including winning league MVP in 1969, has died at the age of 83, the Los Angeles Rams organization and his son confirmed via social media.
Gabriel had his greatest success playing for his first team, the Rams, from 1962-72. His 1969 season, in which he led the league with 24 touchdowns passes, resulted in several MVP and player of the year awards, by such organizations as the Associated Press, the UPI, the NEA and the Sporting News.
"We mourn the loss of Rams legend and football pioneer, Roman Gabriel," the Rams announced. "We extend condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time."
His fourth and final Pro Bowl appearance came in 1973, his first in Philadelphia playing for the Eagles. That season marked the second season he led the league in touchdown passes with 23. He went on to play four more seasons in Philadelphia.
After a stellar collegiate career at North Carolina State, Gabriel became the top overall selection of the 1962 AFL Draft (Oakland Raiders), but he elected to go play for the Rams instead, who chose him second overall in the NFL Draft.
That choice eventually enabled him to become the Rams' all-time touchdown passes leader with 154, a distinction he impressively still holds today.
He was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1989, but has yet to earn that same honor in the pros, despite holding better career numbers than several other inductees, including Bart Starr, who denied Gabriel's Rams a chance at a Super Bowl championship in 1967.
Gabriel finished with 29,444 yards, 201 touchdowns and 149 interceptions in 183 games (157 starts).
Something good still happening in America!!!
I can't stop laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Add:
Does that come in adult sizes?
That looks like a penis, only smaller!
Exactly! Thinking is something the liberal, brain dead minions, that fall prey to the democrat controlled media, are not accustom to to doing.

Biden annoys Papua New Guinea's locals with his 'cannibal' claims about them
By Monica Showalter
There he goes again.
Joe Biden, once billed as a foreign policy genius, has gone and alienated another country, upsetting the Papua New Guinea residents with his phony claim that his Uncle Bosie, who died in World War II, was eaten by cannibals on one of their islands, which he wasn't.
The mainstream media isn't saying anything, but the British press is paying attention:
According to the Daily Mail:
Outraged Papua New Guinea academics have slammed President Joe Biden for his 'unacceptable' suggestion that his uncle was eaten by cannibals in the country after his plane was shot down during World War II.
Biden implied on two occasions Wednesday that his maternal uncle 2nd Lieutenant Ambrose J. Finnegan had met a grisly end at the hands of cannibals after his plane was shot down by the enemy over New Guinea in 1944.
But the White House and official defense records confirmed that Finnegan died when the military plane he was in experienced engine failure and crashed into the Pacific Ocean, not over land.
Historically, cannibalism has been reported Papua New Guinea, the Pacific nation that occupies the eastern half of the island of New Guinea, but local academics say Biden's categorization of the act is 'very offensive'.
According to The Guardian:
“The Melanesian group of people, who Papua New Guinea is part of, are a very proud people,” said Michael Kabuni, a lecturer in political science at the University of Papua New Guinea. “And they would find this kind of categorisation very offensive. Not because someone says ‘oh there used to be cannibalism in PNG’ – yes, we know that, that’s a fact.
“But taking it out of context, and implying that your [uncle] jumps out of the plane and somehow we think it’s a good meal is unacceptable.”
Cannibalism was practised by some communities in the past in specific contexts, said Kabuni, such as eating a deceased relative out of respect, to prevent their body from decomposing. “There was context. They wouldn’t just eat any white men that fell from the sky,” said Kabuni.
Something like this matters because Papua New Guinea is a nation the U.S. has been trying very hard to strengthen bonds with, given China's expansion into the Pacific. The Los Negros section of Manus island off the coast of New Guinea, where 2nd Lt. Finnegan's plane went down based on engine trouble, is viewed today as a linchpin linking our Australia and New Zealand allies to what strategists call "sea lines of communication" up and down the Pacific, according to this research paper from the U.S. Naval Institute. And with China making advances in the region, in Papua New Guinea as well as the adjacent Solomon Islands through its One Belt, One Road initiative, the U.S. needs to do all it can to keep Papua New Guinea in its 'friends' column.
Aside from that, the Biden statement also insults his uncle, making him a punchline for tales of cannibal pots, quicksand, and natives in grass skirts with bones through their noses.
What a way to honor his uncle, who made the ultimate sacrifice.
But of course, that's Joe Biden, the man who looked at his wristwatch when fallen troops were brought back in coffins to America and made jackass ethnic jokes about hard-working Indian-American gas station owners.
It also isn't the reality at all on Papua New Guinea.
Instead of affirming them for who they are, Biden went and insulted them for cheap peanut-gallery laughs and managed to perpetuate colossally ignorant stereotypes because he just doesn't care. Why he would do this, pointlessly alienating an important nation that America needs as a friend and one that has never done anything bad to us at all, is really disgusting.
It shows what a hash Joe Biden has made of foreign policy and just how cartoonish his knowledge of foreign affairs really is.
So now he's dishonored his uncle and insulted a nation that has never done anything wrong to us.
What a guy. So much for 'experienced statesman.'
He ought to apologize to them personally. But of course, he won't. That weakens the U.S. as China continues its march through the Pacific.
Sounds like he wanted this all along.

Bobby one way, Kennedys for Biden
By Silvio Canto, Jr.
The Kennedy clan came out to support President Biden with a video.
One of them said something about Biden reminding them of their father, Sen. Robert Kennedy who was assassinated in 1968.
Another one brought up "reproductive rights," the other spoke about women making their own health decisions and yet another warned of the dictatorship around the corner if Trump returns to the White House.
Anything new? Not really. This election will be about abortion and dictatorships.
Up in Michigan, their brother Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is on another ballot and they are worried in the White House.
This is the story:
Robert F. Kennedy's campaign announced Thursday that the independent presidential candidate will appear on the ballot in Michigan - which could have masssive repercussions for President Joe Biden's reelection prospects.
In the most recent poll in the state, Biden has fallen behind former President Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee.
Kennedy and his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, were able to skip the arduous process of gathering signatures to appear on the ballot, as they were chosen to represent the little-known Natural Law Party in the fall instead.
The Natural Law Party already has a spot secured on Michigan's general election ballot - one of five minor parties that are represented.
The Biden team has reasons to be worried. On a national basis, Kennedy is at 8% and I'm guessing most of that is coming from Biden. In other words, he will force the Biden campaign to fight for votes in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
To be fair, we don't know if Kennedy turns into Ross Perot who arguably kept George H.W. Bush from winning reelection or Ralph Nader who impacted the very close race in Florida in 2000. My guess is that Kennedy will end up in the teens and deny Biden his reelection.

Ben Carson to Newsmax: Trump Acts Younger, Biden Much Older
Dr. Ben Carson, former secretary of Housing and Urban Development in the Trump administration, told Newsmax on Friday the contrast between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump on the campaign trail is striking.
Biden, 81, the oldest serving U.S. president, has appeared lethargic, especially in his most recent campaign stop Thursday at a Wawa convenience store in Philadelphia. Trump, 77, was full of vigor when he visited a Harlem bodega on Wednesday following a full day in court for jury selection in his trial regarding an alleged hush-money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
"There is such a thing as the chronological age, but there's also the physiological age," Carson told "Eric Bolling The Balance." "And that's the age that you act. Joe Biden acts way older than 81, and Donald Trump acts way younger than 77.
"This is how you make a determination as to how long someone is likely to be around and how active they're going to be. We have a very big contrast between the two and it's dangerous for our country because there are so many issues going on that are critical right now."

Dem's Bill Would Seek Removal of Trump's Secret Service Detail
Highly anticipated ..... Everyone should have seen this coming!!!!
Should Donald Trump be found guilty in any of his four criminal cases, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-S.C., would like to see the former president no longer eligible for Secret Service protection.
House Homeland Security Committee Democrats on Friday posted to X the comments of Thompson: “Unfortunately, current law doesn’t anticipate how Secret Service protection would impact the felony prison sentence of a protectee — even a former President. It is regrettable that it has come to this, but this previously unthought-of scenario could become our reality.”
Jury selection concluded on Friday in the Trump business records case, which is the first of his indictments to go to trial. Twelve jurors and six alternates are set to hear opening arguments on Monday for the first criminal trial of a former U.S. president.
The farcically named bill, called the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable Former Protectees Act (DISGRACED), aims to “deny infinite security and government resources” to those convicted of a federal or state offense.
Thompson, who oversaw the January 6 Select Committee, notes in his fact sheet that Congress occasionally needs to update the Secret Service's mission in “response to exigent circumstances.”
“Therefore, it is necessary for us to be prepared and update the law so the American people can be assured that protective status does not translate into special treatment — and that those who are sentenced to prison will indeed serve the time required of them,” Thompson’s remarks continued.
Thompson made sure to mention in his notes that the bill would apply to Trump.
The Trump hush money case centers on allegations that Trump had his then-lawyer Michael Cohen make payments to adult entertainer Stormy Daniels, aka Stephanie Clifford, and former Playboy model Karen McDougal, on the condition they refrain from discussing affairs which Trump has denied. Trump has been accused of falsifying business records to conceal the payments.

If they jail Trump, what’s next?
By Clark Wren
The insiders, the elites, the establishment, whatever you want to call them, are hoping our Soviet-styled Department of Justice (“show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime”) will keep rolling forward and steam-roll Donald Trump. Although the Trump base is solidly with him and has stopped listening to anything the legacy press tries to manipulate us to believe, the Department of Justice has the power to incarcerate Trump if that is the will of the court.
What then? The elephant in the room is precisely what the talking heads won’t say. We have a constitutional crisis right now. Refusal to acknowledge the elephant doesn’t make it go away. A constitutional crisis, though, is not necessarily a bad thing. It does, however, require people to think outside of the box, which makes most people uneasy. Nevertheless, when there is a great distance between what you are being told and what you are actually thinking, then change becomes inevitable and necessary. But it is not the change for which the insiders, the elites, the establishment, whatever you want to call them, are aiming.
The institutions, which are now firmly controlled by the elites, are not supposed to run this country. We are supposed to run this country. Again, the message we get bombarded with almost daily from the media has little effect on Trump’s base, but everyone is not in Trump’s base. There are many who are undecided, and an election can be determined by razor thin margins.
What Trump is claiming while he stands trial in New York is exactly what is happening, “election interference.” To put it another way, anything that can be done to rig the 2024 presidential election is being done. The insiders, the elites, the establishment, whatever you want to call them, also want to send a powerful message here: If you ever defy us, we will do to you what we are doing to Trump.
But when the institutions run this country and the people don’t, we become subjects — not citizens. What’s more, when institutions take their ideology to its ultimate extreme and will use force—the FBI—to back it up, there is nothing about human beings that cannot be perverted or destroyed by the political process: In their world, men and women no longer even exist.
Some of the greatest authors of the twentieth century, Franz Kafka, George Orwell, and Yevgeny Zamyatin, warned about what we are seeing right now. Institutions becoming all-powerful, overcoming the will of the people, and creating corrupt elites that cannot be opposed.
If all ways of being heard and being represented are blocked, what’s next?

Hi Al. Maybe Presidementia Biden is hoping that some of the cannibal's ancestors will make it across Joe's wide open southern border so he can meet with them.
The cannibals should sue Biden for defamation
By Silvio Canto, Jr.
the same media that beats up Trump over minute details sits back and writes off Biden's stuff as just another day in the presidency of the old man with a bad memory. Again, it must be nice to have the media carry your water, your bags, your telepromoter, and everything else.
It's the story that keeps on giving -- the one about President Biden saying that his Uncle Ambrose was on the menu when the cannibals of the Pacific had dinner circa 1944.
It didn't take long for the Pentagon to correct the story. It turns out that Uncle Ambrose died in a crash and the cannibals had nothing to do with his disappearance. Anyone smell a class-action lawsuit here?
As Rick Moran points out, the appalling thing here is that the media went mute on the outrageous story:
It must be nice to be president. Every time you open your mouth, the world hangs on every word you utter.
"Ev'ry word that I speak goes in the headlines; When?I?speak,?all the papers?hold their deadlines," penned Richard Rodgers and Moss Hart in their musical about FDR, 'I'd Rather Be Right." It must be a heady experience for a president.
Indeed, we sit back and listen to every word because it's likely another story that he made up. Of course, the real problem here is not the storyteller-in-chief but rather the media that lets him get away with it.
In other words, the same media that beats up Trump over minute details sits back and writes off Biden's stuff as just another day in the presidency of the old man with a bad memory. Again, it must be nice to have the media carry your water, your bags, your telepromoter, and everything else.
In the name of social justice defending people of color from White supremacy, I believe that the world's cannibal community should sue President Biden for defamation. Yes, the cannibals' lawyers should pronounce Biden's remarks as further manifestation that the colonists are at it again. The cannibals never killed nor ate Uncle Ambrose and they are tired of White supremacists hurting their brand. It turns out that the cannibals are victims and traumatized by the White man’s indecent accusation.

The cannibals should sue Biden for defamation
By Silvio Canto, Jr.
the same media that beats up Trump over minute details sits back and writes off Biden's stuff as just another day in the presidency of the old man with a bad memory. Again, it must be nice to have the media carry your water, your bags, your telepromoter, and everything else.
It's the story that keeps on giving -- the one about President Biden saying that his Uncle Ambrose was on the menu when the cannibals of the Pacific had dinner circa 1944.
It didn't take long for the Pentagon to correct the story. It turns out that Uncle Ambrose died in a crash and the cannibals had nothing to do with his disappearance. Anyone smell a class-action lawsuit here?
As Rick Moran points out, the appalling thing here is that the media went mute on the outrageous story:
It must be nice to be president. Every time you open your mouth, the world hangs on every word you utter.
"Ev'ry word that I speak goes in the headlines; When?I?speak,?all the papers?hold their deadlines," penned Richard Rodgers and Moss Hart in their musical about FDR, 'I'd Rather Be Right." It must be a heady experience for a president.
Indeed, we sit back and listen to every word because it's likely another story that he made up. Of course, the real problem here is not the storyteller-in-chief but rather the media that lets him get away with it.
In other words, the same media that beats up Trump over minute details sits back and writes off Biden's stuff as just another day in the presidency of the old man with a bad memory. Again, it must be nice to have the media carry your water, your bags, your telepromoter, and everything else.

Biden Says When It Comes To College Women’s Sports, 'May The Best Man Win'
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a move that experts predicted would alter the course of history in women's athletics, President Joe Biden announced that when it comes to college women's sports, "May the best man win."
With the changes made to Title IX, Biden officially ruled that men are now eligible to compete in — and dominate — women's sports, leaving female college athletes to fend for themselves in a landscape that will now be every man for himself.
"Here's the deal, folks," Biden said in a statement announcing the new policy change. "When a gal really is a lady, she is eligible to play with other ladies. When a fellah identifies as a broad, he should be just as eligible to compete with other… with other… with the… the… gals. No one should be allowed to discriminate against these athletes and bar them from women's sports simply because they have… they have the… in between their legs, they've got the… they have… you know, the things. Prefarginbarner."
While critics said the new changes would mark the end of competitive women's college sports, proponents of the announcement hailed it as a historic milestone. "It's a new era," said Phil Sanderson, who hopes to make the Georgetown University women's softball team next year. "Gone are the days of women just getting their sporting events to themselves. I'm going to be out on that field next year, and I'm going to straight up manhandle some chicks. Because I'm a lady now."
At publishing time, the Biden administration was also preparing to announce that the NCAA would now be required to provide free testicular cancer screenings for all women's collegiate athletes.

The Energy Absurdity of the Week: Declaring a Climate Emergency is a Crazy Idea
David Blackmon
Apr 20, 2024
I recorded a podcast this week in which the host told me I am an “outlier” for being willing to write the truth about the destructive nature of the Biden administration’s energy policies. It was one of the kindest things anyone has ever said to me, frankly.
So, I guess I will be an outlier again when I write that the idea again being considered by White House officials of having President Biden declare a climate emergency so he can implement a draconian crackdown on the domestic oil and gas industry is frankly crazy. That’s the truth.
Bloomberg reported Thursday that unnamed officials inside the White House said the idea of declaring a climate emergency, first considered in 2021 and again in 2022, is once again under consideration. The only “emergency,” of course, is one of the President’s flagging approval ratings among impressionable young voters that threaten to derail his re-election chances. Doing so would arm the President with dictatorial powers to hamstring the domestic industry more than his regulators and hundreds of executive orders have already managed to do.
According to Bloomberg’s sources, actions being considered would include suspending offshore drilling, restricting exports of oil and LNG, and “throttling” the industry’s ability to transport its production via pipelines and rail. Given the industry’s crucial nature, it all sounds like a recipe for massive economic disaster.
"The average American is certainly not demanding a climate emergency declaration. It's the losing team of left-wing Democrat activists and the shrinking base of elites who are,” U.S. Oil and Gas Association President Tim Stewart told me in an interview. “It's not about climate, it's about control: Control over the entire US economy, control of production, manufacturing, distribution, and consumption. If you control energy, you control all these things. Which means you have control of the people.”
Stewart notes that the use of emergency powers in this instance would represent the same playbook used by federal, state, and local governments to restrict citizens’ freedoms and choices during COVID pandemic. But for the President, it would also be a means of shoring up support among the billionaire class that funds both the climate alarmist movement and so many Democrat party campaigns, including his own campaign for re-election.
That angle was echoed by Tom Pyle, President of the DC-based think tank, the Institute for Energy Research. “By now, we have gotten used to incredibly damaging and stupid decisions from the Biden administration, but the idea of declaring a “climate emergency” is in a class by itself,” Pyle told me. “Like the freeze on new LNG permits, the only emergency President Biden is seeking to address with this latest threat is his slippage in the polls among young voters.”
Others with whom I spoke on the matter were skeptical that the White House would really take such an extreme step in the middle of a re-election effort, but that outlook seems naïve, really. After all, who would have predicted last December that the administration would halt all permitting of new LNG export facilities purely for political reasons? Who would have predicted in late 2021 that the President would order the draining of 40% of the nation’s wartime Strategic Petroleum Reserve for no reason other than a pure political calculation designed to try to influence the 2022 midterm election?
Anyone thinking such a move would be made out of a real, good faith effort to somehow impact climate change needs to consider this: Demand for oil and natural gas is a global phenomenon that will not be reduced just because Biden cracks down on the US domestic industry. Such a crackdown would inevitably create the flight of billions of dollars in capital to other parts of the world where environmental regulations are far less stringent than in the United States.
The climate alarmists advocating for this crazy policy action like to ignore the reality that the earth has only one atmosphere which everyone shares. The US oil and gas industry has dramatically cut emissions of both methane and CO2 even as it has achieved new records in production. No other nation on earth can make a similar claim.
This is indeed a crazy idea, but it would be a mistake to assume it is not being seriously considered, and for all the wrong reasons.

I like your squatters rights idea!! See if the local justice officials would have the squatters removed!
Howdy K². Maybe have the local politicians take several of them into their homes and take care of them.
No sunshine here today, cool and cloudy with a chance of showers. The yards are still a bit squishy from all the rain. Looks like Saturday thru Tuesday is going to improve. I hope.
