Overthecap is already disputing the report of the dollar amount and PFT has retracted/amended their x post, apparently.

Lesson learned-- Never trust Mike Florio.

I see violent felonies as far more serious infractions of the law. The guidelines the law has set in place sees it in that same light by not only the category of these offenses but the penalty associated with the offenses as well. Thus my "in the grand scheme of things" comment.

So you either categorize these violent felonies as more severe or you don't. Which is all I have done.

So which is it? Are they on similar levels or aren't they? This tap dancing routine you keep doing isn't cutting it. So yes, this is all pretty basic.

No, I don't. No one was ever comparing Myles Garrett to players with domestic violence, you started that. You had derogatory comments about posters having issues with Garret's lack of discipline behind the wheel, that's as far as it went. I merely explained why I agree they can take issue with it.

They must mean US, normal citizens who see no way out of our current nightmare. We are blessed with a Commander in Chief who "jokes"/ uses sarcasm when talking about the Medal of Honor-- he has no clue about honor, virtue, nobility...... we need to pray for him and our country- we were blessed with another MAINLY peaceful 4th of July. Lord help us to stop killing each other in Middle East. Pray for leaders who act "for the people" and the common good- thanks to all who serve our country in many different areas. Happy 4th July weekend to all- yes, including our President. Peace.

Not a big fan of Hunter Biden but he is a bit clever at least.

He nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the Iran War 38 times,,,

That's not a number he pulled out of the air. CNN reported that Trump himself has said that the war was over or an agreement was signed or a deal was eminent 38 times...


Clever

Look at the investigation/prosecution of the 2 Guardians pitchers. They just agreed to certain outcomes for certain pitches. I certainly don't want another such embarassment.

I think the biggest potential gambling problem the NFL faces is with the refs. It's way bigger with the refs.

That was my first thought when the quick gambling apps, and then NFL sponsorship of it started.



Just like Clase and Ortiz, prop bets and/or micro bets could be a huge problem

When it arrives, just start in on it at the correct dosage. Feel free to eat up the other stuff as well; some folks take in as much as 20g per day when doing a fast load saturation. If you're over 200 lbs, you could be taking 5-10 grams per day just fine, but I'm currently 240 lbs and still only do 5g, for now.

Re: The Dems... again MemphisBrownie 06/26/26 01:30 PM
This will be interesting to watch over the next couple of years between moderate democrats and the younger socialist-leaning members. It has been trending in a negative direction already but now more and more of these younger socialists are winning seats and positions across governments--federal, state, and local municipalities.



Here is a good example-- Darializa Avila Chevalier, the Democratic nominee for Congress in New York's 13th Congressional District, was identified as the co-founder of the campus group Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD), which stated in a 2024 social media post that it was "fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization". She has also quoted many Marxist slogans:

"Seize the means of production" — A direct quote from a deleted post she published using the fundamental slogan of Marxism and communism."Seize all properties from landlords" — Part of her broader rhetoric advocating for the nationalization of housing and private real estate.

She clarified her position on defunding the police by stating her goal "means ending policing full stop. Period. No more police at all ever," while advocating for a "world without prisons."

This isn't a democratic socialist. Using the word democratic is putting lipstick on a very ugly pig. She is wavering between socialism and communism and there is a growing population of younger Americans who are subscribing to this dangerous ideology.

Anecdotally, I work with someone who is a self-described "Leninist" and believes in the Leninism ideology associated with Communism. It's unbelievable to hear the things this person subscribes to regarding one-party government control as if it is the answer to all the world's issues. Absolutely, asinine.

Over a dozen cases dropped against Minnesota protesters accused of assaulting federal agents during ICE operation PitDAWG 06/22/26 04:57 PM
Federal prosecutors are continuing to dismiss charges initially brought against people in Minnesota for allegedly assaulting federal officers during the winter.

WCCO dug through court filings and identified at least 18 people whose cases are now dropped. A federal judge officially dismissed the charges for 15 of them; three are pending a judge's approval after prosecutors filed motions to dismiss the charges. At least 17 cases are still pending, with judges denying defense dismissal motions in several of them.

Richard Painter, a legal expert with the University of Minnesota and former chief White House ethics lawyer for President George W. Bush, said that it's clear to him that federal prosecutors brought several cases forward without sufficient evidence.

"It appears that the United States Attorney's Office in Minnesota is bringing some weak cases against protestors," Painter said, adding that he believes that there was pressure from the Trump administration to charge people.

According to court records, defense and government attorneys alike asked for case dismissals for a variety of reasons.

Juan Carlos Rodriguez Romero was accused in December of ramming into ICE vehicles in St. Paul, prompting an ICE agent to fire his weapon, hitting no one. On June 8, United States Attorney Daniel Rosen signed off on a dismissal motion based in part because prosecutors "thoroughly reassessed the evidence" and concluded that they were not confident that they could obtain and sustain a conviction against Rodriguez Romero.

In January, ICE leadership acknowledged that ICE agent Christian Castro may have lied under oath about what happened the night he shot Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis in north Minneapolis. This led to the assault charges against Sosa-Celis and another man being dropped; Castro is now facing charges in Hennepin County for the shooting and for falsely reporting a crime.

Just a week after that incident, federal officers said Paul Johnson violently resisted arrest in north Minneapolis. On Thursday, Rosen signed a motion to dismiss the charges against Johnson. The U.S. Attorney for the District of Minnesota acknowledged issues raised by Johnson and his legal team, including allegations that agents shackled him to a bed at HCMC without access to his phone for days.

"Based on newly received discovery, the government intends to pursue an investigation into allegations raised in Mr. Johnson's filings; therefore the interests of justice support dismissal of this case," Rosen's motion reads in Johnson's case.

In the more than 30 cases WCCO reviewed, one name appeared across a variety of different cases. HSI Special Agent Richard Berger submitted sworn affidavits prompting probable cause for the arrest of Johnson and nine others, whose charges were ultimately dismissed. Berger submitted affidavits in at least 12 cases that are still ongoing.

In a hearing in Gillian Etherington's case in April, which is still ongoing, U.S. District Court Magistrate David Schultz said that he became "concerned with the veracity" of multiple affidavits related to federal officer assault cases that came from Berger. Schultz said that in multiple instances, Berger "did not have any personal knowledge of the events described in the affidavits that he has submitted to this court as sworn affidavits."

A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security ignored questions from WCCO about whether there has been an internal review of incident reports or legal filings. The spokesperson instead provided a statement describing Johnson, who prosecutors are dropping the federal case against, as an "anti-ICE rioter."

U.S. prosecutors in Minnesota on Tuesday announced charges against 15 people they say conspired to "violently oppose immigration law enforcement," though Rosen failed to describe a single example of injuries to federal agents when repeatedly questioned.

When asked what makes the latest slate of indictments different than other cases that have been dropped, Rosen said he doesn't think any cases have "failed in any way."

"Read the indictment and you'll understand the magnitude of this case," Rosen said. "You watch how this case plays out, you watch how the evidence plays out and the evidence will prove it all out."

Re: Iran War II PitDAWG 06/17/26 02:56 PM
I've addressed are they just supposed to let them already. No they aren't. But we both know that there are other choices than simply carpet bombing civilian neighborhoods which is choosing to intentionally wipe out tens of thousands of innocent civilian lives. I'm not opposing Israel taking actions to protect themselves. I'm pointing out that first of all Netanyahu playing The Boy Who Cried wolf for three decades trying everything he can to get a partner to invade Iran combined with making the choice to defend his nation by intentionally slaughtering all of those civilians is not justifiable by you or anyone else. Nobody forced him to make that decision.

You totally dismissed that point as well as Israel being Iran's neighbor and how they already have nuclear weapons. When you combine that with Netanyahu's war cries which he has been espousing for decades now it only makes sense that Iran would want to be able to respond in kind should the need arise.

That doesn't mean I want them to have a nuclear weapon. It simply means I understand why they want one. None of that means I'm against Israel defending themselves. But look at some of the comments you have made in describing Iran as terrorists. One of those points was slaughtering their own innocent civilians. I'm not sure how you can justify when someone else does it for them.
