Even if Trump admitted under oath he held the aid up to force the Biden investigation the GOP still wouldn’t remove. He could admit he ordered the Code Red on Santiago. They don’t care.

Re: NFL Playoffs - Second Round

The Titans have been a boring franchise practically their entire existence in Tennessee. Except for maybe that three-week stretch 15 or so years ago when Billy Volek and Drew Bennett were setting the league on fire. Maybe they didn't win anything of note when they were in Houston, but at least thos...

I have often had that same thought when she tells me about some of the more 'large' women that she has to scan. Because they deal with high-risk pregnancies, it's a fairly common thing.

One thing I've noticed in the various news reports...in the timeline for all this, it started with killing of a US 'contractor'.

That 'contractor' was a mercenary, right? Most likely from Blackwater, right? Has anyone seen Erik Prince hanging around Mar-A-Lago lately?

CosmicCrisps are some delicious fucking apples. Just got some of those at the local grocery store myself. I agree. They are quite good. I guess there's an ongoing lawsuit between Washington State Univ (where it was developed) and their private partner about the patent and distribution of them.
