Not what I said, but expected. You said politics played no role in rescue efforts and I proved that it does, so “on topic” was my response to your statement. How sickening that a government agency will pick and choose whom to assist after a national emergency. Nor’easter about to wipe NJ off the map. Watch the cries for assistance from Trump’s government….a government they hate. I bet the house Trump will give aide. BTW, I know you live in S.C. I did say your “region”.

Close to your region…… Hurricane Helene flooded N. Carolina and FEMA refused aide to Trump supporters. Entire communities were lost. That tells me all I need to know.

Astros botched a double play which was the start of the 6 run inning that was our demise.

Should the Astros win tonight, they only have to win one more game no matter what happens to the Rangers. This game isn’t over but we are winning by 1.

Well, my Longhorns play the brunch game this week @ Tennessee. UT vs. UT. Should get interesting with Trump visiting and half prices concessions (including alcohol) starting @ 9:00 a.m. [Hidden Content]

You won’t get a like from the left on that one, Mat. Muslims killed around 3,000 civilians on 9/11. They’re not good at face to face confrontations unless they outnumber you. They have to be the most cowardly race/religion/ideology on the face of the planet. We do need to watch our step with the invaders. However, this war was inevitable and needed to happen. Heck, we had people who were against WWII, so it’s nothing new. If we had listened to them, we’d be speaking German or Japanese, or we would have been executed. Millions of us wouldn’t have even happened.

It was late when I posted last night and I was ready to turn in. I failed to mention that all the Astro’s runs were via HR. Spence hit a 3 run shot and 2 solos, while Paredes and Walker also hit solos. It’s gonna come down to the last 3 games. Who wants it more????

I wish they would keep walking and never come back. The UN is a useless bunch of suits who mostly represent impoverished countries. They meet and live in our beautiful country while stabbing the U.S. in the back. They can hold their little gatherings in another country of their choice, then maybe Mamdani can convert the building into a free grocery store.

Double play to end it. Astros win 7-5 and remain tied for division lead.

Spence hits his 1st career HR. He now has 3 in the game. His swing reminds me of Terry Puhl.

I thought about that but didn’t do the math. If it makes any difference, it was closer to ‘07-‘08. I still thought there was quite a disparity.

Well, who wants it?

When Bush has the high gas prices, gas in this area was almost $4.00 per gal. and crude oil price was $140. So there’s that. My work was such that we kept an eye on crude oil prices.

I have a video about Obama that I can’t post here due to language. I can send it to you if you like.

Has Trump’s ban been enforced? Then it’s an attempt too. I see no difference.The article is on page 1 of this thread. It’s not difficult to find. I also had a post about Trump being dissatisfied with military leaks.

I didn’t realize Google had a lean. What’s an alternative truth?

It’s my Google search on page 1.

Why did he do the same thing?

Aggie, correct me if I’m wrong, but the political forum was created because politics was ruining the sports (and other) forums…….and that was way before Trump came along.

Just because you don’t like the story, doesn’t make it weak. I think it shows your weakness not to call out Obama for attempting the same thing. Whatabouts are great ammo to show hypocrisy. I will always call attention to people’s inconsistencies.

I had read somewhere that Trump was fed up with military leaks, like missile depletions and the like. To me, that’s so treasonous it stinks. First of all, the media shouldn’t be privy to that information and then they certainly shouldn’t announce it to the world. If they would simply report the news instead of being guilty of libel, Trump wouldn’t have problems with MSM.

These didn’t even get an honorable mention. Funny how that works. Google search: Other U.S. presidents have restricted or limited news media access, but physically barring and revoking hard press passes for specific news organizations from the White House complex is an extreme action. [1, 2] Historical Precedents and Restrictions Richard Nixon: Banned Washington Post reporters from social events and press briefings following their coverage of the Watergate scandal. [1] Barack Obama: Briefly tried to exclude Fox News from a 2009 pooled interview with an administration official (backed down after pushback from other networks) and excluded three conservative newspapers from his campaign plane in 2008 while keeping other outlets. [1, 2] Past White House Access: Historically, hard press passes granting physical access to the White House complex were rarely revoked except for explicit security threats, with no major record of credential revocations penalizing outlets for political coverage prior to modern administrations.

Posted at same time.

That’s a play where, if it works, they call you a genius. If it doesn’t, they wonder why you called it.

Abreu likes them bases loaded.
