Friday around here is usually grocery shopping day. Can't wait. Been up since 5 in anticipation.
Will be buying EGGS! Maybe more than a dozen. Maybe two or three.
Thank you President Trump. I knew you could do it!!!!

That spending looks almost like a perfect slope of 1*, which just points out the ridiculousness of education spending.

*meaning that for each increment of time (x axis) spending (y axis) increased in kind. Even by government standards, that level of funding increase is absurd. Even more so when you consider that what it was supposed to AID maintained a slope of ZERO. LOL

Only in the public sector can budget increases be so ridiculously "unbound" by the results. 🤣 🤣 🤣

Think of it this way: It's as if the Federal government was the Ford Motor Company, and it decided to build the Edsel (GOVERNMENT EDUCATION SPENDING) , but even after realizing it was a flop, it just decided, to never STOP building Edsel's. It just kept building MORE of them; BECAUSE...

Everything below the math was fine....👀

Texas is winning big this morning. Where is the famous Texas justice at? Guess they are to busy banning hemp.



Look at that teamwork. I guess thieves can work when they want to.

Thank you Dear Leader for my economic beating!!! 🤡

Consumers cut spending by most in four years last month

Ongoing tariff threats from Washington and potentially sweeping government job cuts have darkened consumers’ mood and may be weighing on an otherwise mostly healthy economy.

It's all by design. Keep the masses dumb so they blindly obey the state/government.

lol are all your bullet points as retarded as the one claiming he’s not a corrupt leftist judge because he gave Ray Epps a lighter sentence than prosecutors asked for?

Jasmine Crockett used taxpayer dollars to lease a vehicle for $999/month for the last year.

Democrats in Congress Drive Luxury Cars on Taxpayer Dime

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., Texas) declared in February that the government is "not in the business of giving out money" to taxpayers. But when it comes to the simple luxuries in her own life, the firebrand lawmaker is happy to let the public foot the bill. That includes her taxpayer-funded car...

It was the old "xxx,99" trick. She thought she was getting a steal. Well, it WAS a steal in the sense that we had to pay for it, but you get the dgrift..

Entirely wiped out with nary a radar signature registered... LOL

19 Fishbeds? really? Those radar systems won't even get "warmed UP" before all 19 are falling to the ground in pieces.

Much the same for the Fulcrums and Fitters, LOL

Fish in a barrell, and that is putting it mildly.

IOW, don't even BOTHER sending up the Raptors. It would be superfluous/showy...

This wasn't completely fair. Those 29's probably have the speed to run away. (unless we use F-15's then, not so much.

And I'm still not sure that Canada is an actual country TO THIS DAY. LOL Aren't they still "technically" part of the British Commonwealth?

1. Historical Ties​

• Colonial Past: Canada was a British colony until it became a self-governing dominion in 1867 through Confederation. It remained under British legislative authority until 1982.
• Monarchy: Canada still recognizes the British monarch (currently King Charles III) as its official head of state. However, the monarchy is now entirely symbolic and operates independently in Canada.

2. Political Relationship​

• Independent Country: Canada is fully sovereign and governs itself. It gained full legislative independence from the UK with the Canada Act 1982.
• Parliamentary System: Canada’s government is modeled after the British parliamentary system.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Bottom line: Canada is weird...

Newsom is going to spend the next three years telling you he hasn't been in the cabal implementing the culture war, forcing the 20/80 dem platform down your throat or eventually knowing any democrats.

the algorithm tossed me a good one. Hilarious Letterman interview with the incomparable G Gordon Liddy. 🤣

Eggs are so cheap now that I bought two dozen, and when I got home this morning, I just threw them immediately into the garbage, JUST BECAUSE I COULD.

If Rick Pitino had never left, and was finishing out his career, still at Kentucky, how many more titles do you realistically think we'd have now?

I'd put it at +2 conservatively and +4 at the other end. So probably 11. If he had never left, I think we'd have 11 championships.

I've wondered this recently as well, however, I've also wondered if some of those personal problems he had at UofL would have happened here as well. Primarily the Karen Sypher type incident and not having knowledge of what his staff was doing (i.e. strippergate) Would he have exercised a bit more self-discipline that he seemed to lack at UofL?

 

[HymanKaplan]

I can't speak to the philandering, but I think the immense pressure that still prime Calipari at UK was putting on him, might have led to him to cut corners he otherwise might not have. In addition to the overall scummy atmosphere that his AD at Louisville fostered.

 

[AshWilliams]

Impeachment and conviction is the only recourse. I was only arguing that, IMO, defying a district judge probably is not Unconstitutional, but defying SCOTUS is.

My response to that is, TRUMP didn't break the Constitution. This is the fault of DISTRICT JUDGES and a LAZY, IRRESPONSIBLE SCOTUS.

Trump can easily stand on his soapbox and say, "YOU PEOPLE wrecked the Constitution, not ME." And just go on about his business.

There was reason we never found evidence of cheating.... standing. It's wild who has standing and who doesn't.

I guess if a judge rules they have to be released and their firearms returned then that's just how our legal system works. Funny thing is... they won't allow Trump to deport these people even though they hate guns. L O L.

I can't wait until all the white people leave SA. Don't send a single dollar there to help them later either. They have begged for this.

The pure hate and vile attitude from the left is starting to get a tad frightening.

Pretty quick with the deletion of this Fb post sent to me this morning...

Let's try another link from a different site

CNN fired a bunch of people over lawsuits and they hired people even dumber who make worse comments. Elon is going to end up owning cnn.

The UK stole their pensions to pay for migrants. Now they are kicking them out of their homes to give to migrants. 90% of the world don't know and don't care.

Disney keeps saying they only spent about $200M on this movie but tons of people are saying it's closer to $400M. LOL. Disney just throws money out the window now.

I love how the friend tries to take her picture afterwards at the end. 😂

 

[hmt5000]

This is the insanity on the left. Muslims conquered Spain so they should bring in muslims because it was wrong to take it back from them. Legit mental cases.
