  1. A bit of history. Remember Cohn was Joe McCarthy's bulldog. Trump makes McCarthy look like a piker.
  2. Flowers fumbles in the end zone. Karma for his idiotic taunting penalty
  3. i also suspect that being what Virginia's manumission laws were at the time and knowing that Jefferson stayed deeply in debt also played into his decision. I know the Washington's' ran into similar issues when they discussed freeing George's slaves upon his death. Martha had no legal right to free the Custis slaves. She had management of the estate but legal rights belonged to her grandchildren once they became of age.
  4. You need to bring him (and the rest of the family) to Williamsburg for a few days. Some of the programs here with the actor/historian "Nation Builders" are very informative and will give you a new perspective on what those of a certain age were taught in school.
  5. When Fox says he needs to shut his trap...
  6. this is Trump's America. He broke it...now he'll have to pay for it. It's all Stinky Don's doing along with his merry band of misfits
  7. Stinky Don is going to go nuclear tonight.
  8. a bit of reminiscing with some Al Jarreau
  9. I'll be disappointed. Much like the Tigers WS losses to the Cardinals ad Giants, or the Red Wings losing to Pittsburgh in 2009. If the Sun rises Monday morning and I'm above ground, I'll get over it. It's not like losing $12 on a stupid bet in seventh grade (Yankees vs Cardinals, 1964)
  10. All street theatre...nothing of substance.
  11. You want to put a dent in the "Border Crises" crack down on businesses that knowingly hire "illegals". I mean huge fines. And prison terms for company executives. Its never going to happen..
  12. They won't be happy til they bring back indentured servitude. And reinstate slavery
  13. Any chance they can nail "Dr Ronnie" on drug charges....
  14. One of the reasons we revisited it is that one of my wife's cousins served in an outfit that fought alongside E. He was several years older that her, her mother was the baby of the family. We never knew it until he passed a few years ago. I think it was C Company, there's a book out about it and he was mentioned a few times. Quite the jokester. He later spent several years working for one of the railroad companies outside Philadelphia.
  15. We've been rewatching Band of Brothers. Twenty plus years it still holds up. Interesting watching a young Damion Lewis and Ron Livingston.
  16. https://www.cato.org/blog/new-data-show-migrants-were-more-likely-be-released-trump-biden
  17. No matter what Biden does the MAGA's in Congress will block it. Book it
  18. I wish to respectfully opt out. I don't stand for anything our fleece wearing (even in 90 degree temps) Governor stands for.
  19. It does bring up some interesting scenarios. Can Mexico say the same about Texas? What about France? One could argue that Jefferson's actions were a bit sketchy.
