When you threaten, threaten again, start, restart, delay, then ultralong delay your tariffs...

What makes you think there will be another reaction to your tactics. You are a shiiiiiiiiiiteeee deal maker. The other countries aren't going to come running to you begging, no matter how many times u pull this crap.

How many times is he going to get his friends rich on the stock market going way up and way down. They should stop him from doing this just to get his family and friends rich. Its a personal scam just like everything he does. He knows his party and his core supporters will ignore it, whether willfully or ignorantly.

Coney Barrett sides with Trump Deranged SCOTUS minority. I prove Democrats need emergency removal orders & be deported alongside their illegals


Liberals are at war with Trump voters. They are more at war with Trump & his voters than they ever could be at war with a foreign state.

The SCOTUS ruling was actually a win for Democrats’ coup de judicia as it affirms that anyone with an ERO under Alien Enemies Act can be deported by Trump admin BUT not before giving them a court hearing date (& notice to appear with a lawyer I assume) in other words expanding due process.

The liberals win on this.

But hold on. Alien Enemies Act isn’t older than murder that’s just standard democrat gaslighting when they call it “200 some odd year old law” believing you’re a fuccn idiot. Do you all remember what they were saying when Trump first announced he would remove & deport illegals under this law?

They said he couldn’t do it bc we aren’t at war. Of course, they were wrong & once again they were just gaslighting you because they believe you’re a fuccn retard incapable of understanding the law even after reading it. But they weren’t wrong in stating that the law does address illegal Alien Enemies in the event that we are at war with the country of said alien enemies in USA illegally.

This makes no sense! WHAT IF WE ARE AT WAR WITH THE NATION OF THE FOREIGNER HERE ILLEGALLY?! (CHINA IRAN N.KOREA?) EACH SOLDIER OF THEIR 6 or 7 figure FORCE in our country CAN GET A LAWYER?! WE WOULD PUT OUT OWN LAWYERS IN DANGER TO HELP OUR ENEMY!

WE WOULD PUT OUT OWN LAWYERS IN DANGER TO HELP OUR ENEMY! AND WHY? TO DUNK WITH AN UNENFORCEABLE TECHNICALITY ON US TRUMP VOTERS?! THEY ARE MORE AT WAR WITH US THAN THEY COULD EVER BE WITH ANY FOREIGN ENEMY!

March Madness Thread

Figured we can keep track of some of the other conference tournaments here. DePaul has Creighton in OT in the Big East tournament.

Kansas escaped last night vs UCF. This may be Bill Self's worst defensive team ever. The 7' for KU is sort of worthless on the defensive end. Just awful. They were lazy hedging on screens and too frequently the KU defender just handed the ball handler over to someone else on screens, except the new defender didn't actually know that. I can understand why KU fans are frustrated. They play Arizona tonight.

In the SEC, Arkansas lost on a buzzer beater to Ole Miss. OU plays Kentucky tonight's. Right now Missouri and Miss St are in a tight game. Former Union standout Trent Pierce is a starter and key player for Mizzou. I remember Haith was in on him early but quickly fell out of that hunt.

Immigration and national security

WSJ: The US Navy is falling far behind China and its own goals for building ships. One of the major hurdles is not enough skilled workers. Current immigration policies will only make it worse. Many ship construction sub contractors have been using undocumented immigrants who are now leaving.

Howard Twilley RIP

Condolences and prayers for Panic and the Twilley Family.

From the TU website:

The University of Tulsa and Golden Hurricane Athletics mourn the loss of Howard Twilley, one of the greatest receivers in college football history, who passed away Wednesday at the age of 81.

Twilley set numerous NCAA receiving records in 1964 and 1965, catching 261 passes for 3,343 yards and 32 touchdowns in his career at UTulsa. His school record for career receiving yards stood for nearly 60 years, until being surpassed in 2022 by Keylon Stokes. Twilley had 95 receptions for 1,178 yards and 12 TDs in 1964, and 134 catches for 1,779 yards and 16 TDs in 1965, while leading Tulsa to Bluebonnet Bowl appearances in each of those two seasons.

A two-time All-American, including consensus first-team honors in 1965, Twilley finished his career as the 1965 Heisman Trophy runner-up. Twilley was inducted into the Tulsa Athletic Hall of Fame in 1984, the College Football Hall of Fame in 1992, and the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 1995. His jersey, No. 81, was retired by the university.

Following his collegiate career, Twilley played with the Miami Dolphins from 1966 to 1976, making three trips to the Super Bowl, while winning two of them, including as a member of the Dolphins' undefeated season in 1972.

Our hearts and sympathies are with Twilley's family and his many friends.

Bring back DEI!

DEI hires or perhaps a ouji board have to produce better results than this....

David Geier, a man without a medical degree who once was disciplined by the Maryland State Board of Physicians for practicing medicine without a license, reportedly will lead a new HHS study to identify whether a relationship between vaccines and autism exists. https://tinyurl.com/mtstnazv

When President Trump sends an envoy to Moscow for critical negotiations over the Ukraine war this week, it won’t be Marco Rubio, his chief diplomat. The man Trump has trusted with this critical mission, including a second potential meeting with Vladimir Putin, is his friend, golf partner and fellow real estate tycoon Steve Witkoff. https://tinyurl.com/mtzxzkwa

Espionage Act

Seems like news has come out today that basically the entire cabinet staff including the Vice President, Secretary of State, Defense Secretary, and the Chief of Staff knowingly participated in communications through unauthorized government channels (Signal App) that fundamentally violate the espionage act, are open to 3rd parties, and don’t comply with federal standards for classified information.

Add to that the fact that they’re not even competent enough to know who they’re inviting to those channels….

This is a pretty extraordinary level of incompetency at the highest echelons of the government. Go figure.

Intercollegiate Spring Games?


Why not? Soccer gets to play intercollegiate scrimmages in the Spring (heck they even get to play vs pro and semi pro teams). Basketball can now play same division exhibition games...so what's the downside with this for college football. Let's pretend we don't care about the athletes missing class because neither the coaches nor NCAA really care about it.

If we did who would TU schedule against? Missouri State if they're not on the schedule. KU or KState would be a nice touch occasionally.

$500B tax hit?

The contortions Congressional MAGA is going through to extend $4Trilliion in tax cuts for Musk and his friends are ridiculous. The latest is the Senate wants to ignore the cost of an extension on the budget as is only an 'extension' even though it is new legislation and all deficit projections from the CBO do not yet take a tax cut extension into account.

The on top of that add in the effect of DOGE dismantling the IRS. $500B?
