Iran 551 Israel 612 Fairly even numbers. Given the stated air dominance by Israel do we know what Iran have? Are they hiding their biplanes from the Israeli F35's or whatever?

I agree with her stance against yelling racist stuff.

Wearing a hat. And that move putting his kid from his back to his board was smooth.

Zero chance they are made in America. Also, this just seems like Boost Mobile but with a new branded name. So gross.

Whatever happened to Elon's solar roof? Seemed like a cool idea, on paper at least.

I got my MBA from Syracuse, good school, but as I graduated I noticed there were more and more foreign students walking around campus. Personally I think the issue is the phrase "orange man bad" has hurt the feelings of the mascot, Otto the Orange. [image: 1750074230144-a9754127-33ff-4fb2-adf3-c6708ff7de27-image.png]

I’ve read five, including 1 and 2. Lots of people have difficulty getting through Blood Meridian. But I grew up on the streets and very little phases me.

As far as I know that's it. It has to do with guaranteed money and gives them an out on some of it if he doesn't play for whatever reason. In a year where it's put up or shut up, it's a bad look for team and player.

@LuFins-Dad said in Minnesota state reps shot in their homes: The suspect is a Tim Walz appointee, and was apparently carrying No King flyers. So it seems likely the guy is probably an extreme left whacko or an extreme right whacko. Crazy world we're living if it's all the same.

@Axtremus said in The gift for the one who has everything: https://www.burntimpressions.com/ https://www.hammacher.com/product/selfie-toaster?srsltid=AfmBOorJuxHtgeZlSjA4iDRwgoJwAus8TupZV0LwUBXLuRMbZJe_JgPq Disappointed that I cannot find anything like this on Amazon, and the reviews on the Hammacher site are many years old. Leads me to believe that the product is not actually available today. I think Ax wanted one real bad.

Let’s say it really is a “one way street,” and will remain so for another 5 to 10 years. Is that really a problem? They produce stuff that we don’t want to produce ourselves, they give us stuff, we give them papers or numbers that end up in a bunch of electronic ledgers. Is that really a problem for us? Another bone to pick — it seems the article talks only about trade imbalances concerning goods, and overlooked services.

I do not approve of coddling those who disrupt the comings and goings of law abiding citizens.

@Tom-K said in USAid: @89th said in USAid: JFK knew... USAID was first a defense strategy, and second a humanitarian effort. Either way this is F***ed up. Why can't indigenous people in a region they have been living for thousands of years sustain themselves without the aid of Multi National relief agencies? Africa is the most handout receiving continent of the world. Not really. Throughout the Cold War the USSR was aggressively pursuing targets of opportunity for influence throughout the Third World and southern hemisphere. The Marshall Plan had successfully checked Soviet expansion in Europe. Communist success in China and North Korea had attained immediate political objectives in Asia. That left African and South America ripe for Soviet mischief making. USAID and similar foreign aid and technical assistance agencies in other Western states were essentially capacity building programs to contain global Soviet influence. Sort of a collective Marshall Plan Phase II.

The questions about precedent are interesting. But then again, the question of whether this was a "show me the man and I'll find you a crime" have long been answered to any reasonable person's satisfaction.
