Others can give a better answer than me, but I heard Trump is threatening to use something called a recess appointment if he has to. That would bypass the senate. The last time it was used was by Obama in 2012, but the court said it was a no no.I have a question for anyone that knows politics , does all these nominee's for President Trump, have to be confirmed or do they just start working day one?
In 2012, Congress was not in full recess, but having a few members show up each day w/o conducting business. Full recess appointments are constitutional and have been done many times. Both Houses have to recess for 10 days simultaneously & then recess appointments can begin. Those appointees can be confirmed later. I forget if the recess appts last till the end of the year, 2025, or the end of the new Congress - end of 2026.Others can give a better answer than me, but I heard Trump is threatening to use something called a recess appointment if he has to.

Wow, just watched espn, they hate Kentucky, all they talked about was Puke!!! Very little credit for Ky!!!!
Good morning everyone
Wow, what a great game for UK. It sure didn't look good for us during the first half. Where was our great D and great shooting? But, what a gritty performance in the second half. I cringed at some of the near half court heaves (that's what they are no matter how good you are). The calmness during the madness towards the end of the game is what stands out to me the most. I think we have a team.
Hunting report....I got a decent buck Saturday and my wife got one yesterday. We have given one to our niece/nephew and will be teaching her how to cut one up tomorrow. It's not too hard but this kind of work kills my lower back. It sure beats paying more money to get it done. We already have a small fortune in our hunting and fishing.
I hope everyone has a great day. It will be a long week until next Tuesday....Lipscomb.
We won. Why does what ESPN says matter? Trump won. Why does it matter what the MSM says? Just enjoy.Wow, just watched espn, they hate Kentucky, all they talked about was Puke!!! Very little credit for Ky!!!!

Bert, ESPN is biased - no different than MSNBC/CNN/CBS/etc MSM news. Saying they should be neutral is no different than saying the others listed should be. You think most of their on air personalities aren't libs? Me, it's not worth listening to them - and I don't. I don't engage with any sports talk shows. Just watch the games.What ESPN says matters a lot.
They are supposed to be neutral. They are not. They are pro-ACC and they fall over their asses being pro-Puke.
That is not the way it is supposed to be.
I watched the game again today and it was a damned Duke commercial. Jay Bilas is as biased and any color guy can be. All the bad calls against UK were fine. Calls against Duke were pointed out.
I am glad we have ESPN; however, they are biased out the ass.
You are a better man than me. My 42% Scott and 25% Irish will not let me be causual.Bert, ESPN is biased - no different than MSNBC/CNN/CBS/etc MSM news.

I'm sure that's not true.You are a better man than me.
Hey, we have a winnable football game tomorrow. 🥹 I think. I believe it will be our last win this year.Good morning D League. Happy Friday.
Cold and cloudy in the East. Heading out for a run, then lots of work.
With the Duke game behind us, and no Kentucky game for a few days, I’ve been watching some of my discs for a hoops fix —The 1978 championship, the 1998 Elite Eight game, the 2015 Champions Classic…From Goose Givens to Padgett, Sheppard and Mills to Jamal Murray. What a remarkably rich hoops legacy we’ve been able to enjoy, as evidenced just by a glimpse at past Duke games.
Heading out. You all have a great day…
I was looking at an article about "dumb" dogs today. I think you said you have a chow. They are on the list I saw. Is it true? Sometimes a dog can be mislabeled. For instance a beagle is often listed as dumb, but that is because of their powerful sense of smell. It often overpowers them in training sessions. They may simply be more interested in a scent than what a trainer wants them to do. I was just wondering about chows. I have never been around one.Hey, we have a winnable football game tomorrow. 🥹 I think. I believe it will be our last win this year.
My Chow/Shar Pei mix died a couple of years ago and he was dumber than a box of rocks. However, before him we had a Chow mix named Jake who was very intelligent. He was a rescue dog, (most of ours are) so we did not know what he was mixed with, but he was a sharp dog.I was looking at an article about "dumb" dogs today. I think you said you have a chow.
