Incompetence isn’t even the worst part—these are deeply-damaged people even beyond that—but let’s also remember that incompetence is the feature, not the bug. Trump doesn’t want competent people around him who know what they’re doing, because competent people have ideas and opinions about how things should be done, and they’ll tell you so. He wants incompetent people who know they are in over their heads so they just shut up and do exactly as they’re told, which is something any competent person would never tolerate as a condition of employment for long. In exchange, they get rich and they get to abuse the system and its people for jollies, which is something deeply-damaged people love to do.

This is a long thread....you would think the second time around the clown show would at least attempt some competence

not anybody important. This is the excuse he needs for future bad news. "That wouldn't have happened but the woke SC took away my tarifs". It's all about simplicity for him and his fans. As long as he can strip down something to small sentences with as few words as possible, regardless of accuracy, then he benefits because his base is stupid.

Can a mod ban him, please?

Loved your work in Peacemaker Season 2, Bert

Good. Let him burn as many bridges as he can. It won't be the last decision this court has to make that affects him, but he's too stupid to think strategically - which is something to be thankful for.

Fixed that for ya...

Last time he got this pissed he had the East Wing bulldozed. Keep your eye on the Kennedy Center, folks.

from Kavanaugh: "Although I firmly disagree with the Court’s holding today, the decision might not substantially constrain a President’s ability to order tariffs going forward. That is because numerous other federal statutes authorize the President to impose tariffs and might justify most (if not all) of the tariffs at issue in this case — albeit perhaps with a few additional procedural steps that IEEPA, as an emergency statute, does not require. Those statutes include, for example, the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (Section 232); the Trade Act of 1974 (Sections 122, 201, and 301); and the Tariff Act of 1930 (Section 338). In essence, the Court today concludes that the President checked the wrong statutory box by relying on IEEPA rather than another statute to impose these tariffs." Directing Trump, here's how you can ignore the Supreme Court's ruling.

Many of you might have seen this letter to the editor that the Freep posted last week. The replies are fun. https://www.freep.com/story/opinion/readers/2026/02/20/trump-ape-video-obama-racism/88755839007/ I liked this one.

I actually like the new uniforms as well and am happy with less of the city connects. But if they EVER bring back that tiger coming through the D logo again, I will never forgive them.

I'm just disappointed that they didn't come with shorts. 😞

A little something I'm working on... I'm calling it PAWS, not sure what P stands for, but it is a Tigers-specific version of JAWS. I'm hoping to have a live tracker ready for opening day, but as a teaser, the top 10 (and ties) catchers* in Tigers history. Catcher First Year Last Year PAWS Bill Freehan 1961 1976 67.5 Lance Parrish 1977 1986 49.4 Mickey Tettleton 1991 1994 29.3 Johnny Bassler 1921 1927 27.9 Ivan Rodriguez 2004 2008 26.4 Alex Avila 2009 2017 24.2 Mickey Cochrane 1934 1937 22.9 Brad Ausmus 1996 2000 15.4 Matt Nokes 1986 1990 13.3 Red Wilson 1954 1960 12.2 John Wockenfuss 1974 1983 12.2 *Position defined by plurality of games played as a Tiger. Jake Rogers is at 8.6, Dillon Dingler at 7.1.

what's interesting here is that logically, he is making the exact argument that would also defeat Citizen's United. Congress has the power to change corporate law and basically eliminate current corporate structure as a legal entity in the US and every US corporation as currently constituted with it, but the court ruled Congress does not have the power to regulate a subset of that entity's existence - i.e. political contributions. Exact same argument. Verrrrry interesteenk!

So are we not getting our tariff checks now? I've been checking the mail everyday for that and my Doge dividend. Should I stop checking now?

Cant believe this is where we are these days

His sauna must be busted and he's on edge

I’ll take “things that never happened for a billion dollars”, Alex

Loved the shot on CBC of the bar in Nova Scotia filled with a bunch of white haired old timers. life goals.

It is a huge bummer Crosby got hurt, I'm not even rooting for Canada and I wish he was out there.

beating an New York team always gives someone a lot of hype. its funny, if he put 50 up on the thunder or spurs it would be on page 5, but beat THE KNICKS IN THE GARDEN and now he's an mvp candidate. he's been an mvp candidate all year, its about time the east coast recognized it.

I wonder who will end up paying for those refunds?

The person who hired Lewand has been dead for 12 years.

You love to see it.

Because he worked for the organization and when we were originally told he would have minimal input on football operations and then he ended up having a significant role.

Does it matter? Just enjoy watching a very good team play

Cade had his MVP coming out party tonight on national TV in the Garden.

That was glorious. The shot of Brunsons reaction was gold

I have no clue. You wouldn't get full value for someone like Cade. No team has the assets to put together a fair package.

SVG wants to call KAT a pussy so bad

Nice Cade

I wouldn't hire any of these folks to run a lemonade stand, let along mange a huge government agency. And what about those folk who keep saying the government should be run like a business? Even John Dillinger ran a tighter ship than TACO

$50 Million a year and Towns scores 2 points in the half. Against the Pistons 3rd and 4th string centers.

jose alvardo would have been a nice pick up.

There is journalism and there is gossip. If he wants to run a gossip site, that's fine, but let's not have any question about what he is doing.

if you can cut down the number of teams that see any value in tanking, to me that is enough. I don't care if one or maybe two teams tank, but when 30% of your schedule is, then it's a problem.

as long as there is a draft, there will be tanking. you could penalize teams by "adding wins" to their record if they win less than a specified number of games. all these ideas MIGHT affect the margins, but will not stop the problem.

A real journalist would have reached out to TA or TA's reps for comment, I don't get why anyone pays attention to stuff like this let alone spreads it around

Hey ICE. Go **** yourself. There, come find me. And **** you Zuckerberg. Your political protection won't last forever. We won't forget.

Sodium = preservation = food lasting longer = cheaper production. I can cook better than 99% of restaurants, so the way I see it the only benefit to eating out is convenience.

None of the rights in the "Bill of" are absolute here either even though we like to talk to ourselves like they are, and liberal democracy (small 'l' small 'd') in Europe has manage to evolve pretty well without the more explicit kinds of statements we put in the Constitution. And to this particular point, Europe has more reason to remain circumspect of lofty pronouncements because they experienced political speech in Hitler that succeeded in producing 6 million+ murders and a war that destroyed most of their continent. If that had been our experience, it might have changed our views about the rhetoric we allow in the political sphere too.

Bowling Alleys were bars you could take your kids to. “Heres a bunch of quarters. Go play video games. We will be over here smoking and drinking and maybe flirting. Get some nachos”.

How is Bonderman's change up looking?
