Anyone else notice Glenn was wearing a Late Night with Seth Meyers shirt?

Your take is bad. Here is a example using my county in WI So it is not about you, or the majority of Americans who will get this and be fine, it is about protecting the most vunerable amongst us.

How old are you?

I was wrong, he won American Samoa. At least we no that billionaires can’t buy elections

You misunderstood. My progressive friends are willing to watch the whole thing burn if Sanders is NOT the nominee. Which I agree is a pretty shitty thing to do. Bloomberg will not win one primary.

I have heard from my progressive friends that it appears that if Bernie is not the nominee (especially due to some "Super-delegate" trickery), they are willing to sit home again in an effort to have the Democratic Party burn to the ground. Also there will be no way you will have two far left politicians on a ticket. Bernie is going to be saddled with the Socialist tag. He will need someone to even him out. Pete Buttiege is really angling himself for a VP slot.

I know there are some fans here and Echo Mine, Califone's first new album in 7 years comes out tomorrow. Stereogum has a an article and preview https://www.stereogum.com/2069877/califone-echo-mine/music/album-stream/?fbclid=IwAR0cUjfjk6JBrL13tkOdxFThrRspHdrIRtiFrt5CfSQHZ8PWihASQIWxNTI Like what I hear so far. Califone albums, at least to me, take several listens to realize their brilliance.

I'll take losing "2020 Democratic tickets for $400, Alex."

If he were a Republican he might be a nominee for the 2024 election. Also Iowa, way to show the Democrats have a strong handle on the election and showing there will be no problems with the general. What a shit show.

When there are potentially billions of dollars involved people will try to do whatever. Look at the players who use steroids. It is illegal, it damages their health, and can get them banned from the game. Yet every year there is a person who gets busted for it. It all comes down to dollars. The culture that encourages cheating is capitalism. Simple as that. And there is nothing MLB can do to stop it. If it is not stealing signs, it will be something else. This is the society we live in. It also appears that Carlos Beltran is now out as manager of the Mets because of this.

Can a President be impeached multiple times? Asking for a friend.

My dad has always said it is easier to fire the manager then it is to fire the whole team. Which I think is the case here. If you were to punish the players, it would have to be in the way of fines or suspensions, but trying to figure out who knew what and at what time I think would be extremely difficult. A world series championship likely brings in 100s of millions of dollars (billions maybe) to a club. Not only during that season, but merchandise, increase ticket sales in the future, new TV contracts, etc. So when we start talking money that large you will see people trying to get e

Remember when misspelling potato pretty much derailed not only the political career of one man, but an entire administration?

Has there ever been a moment in history that has felt so mundane. We all know how this will play out. My fear is that POTUS 45 will be emboldened to do more audacious things. Regardless of what you think about POTUS 45 the one thing he has done is eschewed the norms of politics. He has done and said things that have completely torpedoed other politicians. Is this just a blip on the radar or will this outlast him as a president? 10, 25, 50, 100 years historians will look back and see this very moment as a turning point in our country, and yet for a majority of Americans it is the battl

I was at that game. It was deeply sad.

And Rizzo exits early with an ankle injury that does not look good. The Cubs at this point are held together with gum, duct tape and the tears of Chicago faithful.

The NL has now gotten to the point were it is tough to tell how it is going to shake out. I read this and man if anyone these happen it would be a crazy time in the MLB https://www.mlb.com/dbacks/news/crazy-2019-mlb-playoff-tiebreakers

Shortly after the election in 2016 I was talking to co-worker. He said, "It won't be that bad. Trump is known for hiring good people. So there will be good people around him to help him make decisions." Every time someone is fired or does something extremely stupid in the Trump administration I remind him of this.

Some dude, I know.

But Joe Biden is. He is Democratic Establishment's choice, basically the same roll that Hillary was in 2020. I have already heard talk (non Russian trolls btw) that Millennials (aka Bernie Bros) will sit out if Joe gets the nod. So yeah, the Bernie Bros would rather burn it all down if they don't get their way.

It is funny, when Hillary Clinton said she was under fire when she landed in Bosnia it nearly (and to some extent did) torpedo her political life. Now Trump when claims he was down helping first responders after 9/11, it gets little mention, maybe a few memes, but again nothing comes of it. We live in a post truth world. I know that politicians lie and stretch the truth, but I don't think there has ever been one that has done it so blatantly and with such frequency as Trump. And the thing is, no one really cares anymore.

Oh ok, so we should let them go ahead and continue and fight between ourselves pointing fingers? Every post about the Muller report here is who it was good for Trump or the Dems. My contention is, sure the Russians may have meddled in the past, but in 2016 and 2018 we have verified proof This is a thing that happened, we know it happened. This is a big f ing deal. We have an election in about 15 months. We have zero plan on how to stop this or preventing it. Russia has received no consequences for doing this. But hey, lets all Monday morning QB this bullshit and see whose side it was b

So the Mueller Testimony. I don't think we learned much, but it was interesting to understand some the reasoning and thoughts. What worries me through this whole thing is this. It has been proven by Mueller and many others that the Russians tried and successfully interfered with our election in 2016. Whether there was a coordinated effort or collusion and by whom is a matter of interpretation and opinion. While congress, the media and the American public seemingly want to point fingers and blame each other. But the long and short of it a foreign entity meddled in our election. This i

Out curiosity what was the straw that broke the camel's back?

I normally don't like to stack posts, but I think this is important to the discussion Pelosi calls Trump a Racist on the House Floor And props to NanPel.
