  1. Don't climb the ladder against 100
  2. Color was mostly Soviet Red though.
  3. Freep has picked up the insult to Detroit Trump says 'whole country' will be like Detroit if Harris wins
  4. I had fears about tonight until I heard how badly that the city was dissed at the Detroit Economic Club. No way this can be allowed to not be a clinch night after that.
  5. Dark Brandon aka Joe Biden has had enough of Trump on the hurricane lies
  6. she said what we are feeling
  7. I'm very dubious that Trump has somehow grown his vote share. I think Harris will exceed the Biden numbers.
  8. Not seeing any headlines about Trump dissing the city in the Freep. But, looks like Detnews had it right Watch live: Trump unveils plan for auto industry, takes swipe at Detroit On today of all days when people are crowding downtown to see their beloved baseball and hockey teams...
  9. Can you imagine if she were shown on film shooting a perfect group with the glock Angie Dickinson style?
  10. Is this bad for Russia? i lack economics skills…even though i have been schooled it didn’t take.
  11. Mitch Albom says that thinking was the problem.
  12. Here is what concerned me greatly from yesterday. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/general-motors/2024/10/08/gm-drops-ultium-name-announces-new-battery-center-and-promises-ev-profits/75554403007/ China going through economic chaos is good and bad. You don't want them to be completely ascendant while they are also planning strategic land grabs of places critical to the World Economy and disruptive to the political order. Bad, in that the chaos in China's economy might make a leader decide to take action to change the narrative like the Argentine junta did in 1982 by invading the Falkland Islands.
  13. I would support that power flex by AJ Hinch.
  14. I have used the word "diaspora" multiple times on MTF today...weird.
  15. I want to face NY just because it validates us on the big stage (like whipping the Astros didn't already do that). The whole MLB would hate it if two regional teams were in the ALCS narrative bores me. Nobody watches the MLB playoffs except the people in those two towns or their diaspora of fans.
  16. Banking votes is never bad.
  17. thinking conceptually about that. Christian Nationalists who believe that their blood and soil are being invaded by the others are going to have a different perspective on the guy down the street who meets the description in their liturgy of "the invader". Also, I do think that a lot of very conservative Muslims come to this country and lose control of their kids and then become more liberalized by their kids as they realize the old grievances and prejudices don't matter so much in the grand scheme. But, that's only some.
  18. well, the implication is that a large diaspora community like that in SE Michigan is the former not the latter. I mean the IIRC, the Arab Voice of Detroit broadcaster was a well-known Baathist with extensive ties to Sadaam Hussein. The Shia community is taking notes from the leadership of the church back home and so forth. I would hope for more of the latter melting pot where people dissolve into their American grievances and not the ones from back in the old country but some of those never go away.
  19. The handwringy NYT looking for ways to make their readers more nervous.
  20. tell me if you think will have any impact It seems like self-serving garbage.
  21. Yeah, they used to send me all sorts of requests to participate in the GOP here. I haven't seen one in a while. Loudon County is the gold plated county next door to Fairfax county and happens to have several large Asian immigrant diasporas. They call Ashburn, Ashburndesh to kid them about all the South Asians. Fairfax wishes we had their very nice sports facilities.
