oh oh I know mister Kotter! They didnt terrorize and murder American citizens.
As usual, you know nothing but what you think you know. Which is, well, you know... nothing. Try harder next time, Horshack.
The Obama administration oversaw record-high deportations, peaking at over 400,000 annually, with critics highlighting stories of aggressive enforcement tactics that instilled fear in immigrant communities. Reports documented cases of wrongful deportations, coercion by officers, and returns to danger despite asylum claims or U.S. family ties. Personal Stories of Harm Nydia, a transgender asylum grantee from Mexico, was repeatedly deported despite her status; after return, she endured gang attacks, rape, and cartel kidnapping as a sex slave before finally gaining permanent residency. Braulia A., a long-term U.S. resident and mother of U.S. citizen children, was deported after pleading about gang threats in Guatemala; her son was murdered there, and she was later raped and shot but survived to win her case. Raids and Community Fear In 2016, ICE conducted armed home raids targeting Central American families fleeing violence, leading to separations and widespread terror; parents kept children home from school, and communities avoided work out of fear. Critics like the AFL-CIO called these actions a due process erosion, with heavy police presence for non-criminal families.
Risks After Deportation Hondurans like Angel Diaz and José Marvin Martínez were deported and murdered shortly after return, amid policies sending 100,000 Central Americans back to high-violence areas despite known dangers of murder, rape, and torture. Human Rights Watch noted Border Patrol abuses, including excessive force, poor detention conditions, and denial of asylum processes.
I heard it said he played rhythm guitar like a piano. Most rhythm players play strummed chords to add texture. Because of Jerry’s meandering style Bobby couldn’t just strum. It’d muddy up whatever Jerry progressed to within that moment. So Bobby had to play sharp, choppy, flicks of the strings. Much like a pianist striking keys. This enabled him to quickly fit himself within Jerry’s meanderings and to change up quickly as Jerry moved. When I go back and listen to Bobby isolated, you can find such videos on YouTube, you can really get an appreciation for how tricky he had to be as a player to not just stay in the pocket but to also play as a second lead at times with a improvisational madman of a lead on stage with him. Bobby essentially had to invent a new way to play rhythm guitar. When he was briefly kicked out of the band in ‘68 he worked hard at studying jazz players to help him win his way back into the band. It worked. Listen to him pre ‘68 and post. It’s like two different guys.
What a life. A teenager Bobby wandering the back alleys of San Fran on New Years Eve, too young to find a club to go watch music, hears a banjo being played through the open back door of a music store. There Jerry Garcia sat waiting for a banjo instruction student that never showed up. Instead Bobby entered. They jammed for the first time that night. Started the Warlocks just a month or so later. At just 16 years old Bobby went on to have a magical life from that happenstance meeting on NYE 1963/64.
The Ravens have wrapped up another head coaching interview.
The team announced the completion of their meeting with Browns defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz on Wednesday. It’s the ninth interview they have conducted since firing John Harbaugh last week and several more are expected to take place before they move to another round of meetings.
Schwartz, who was a Ravens assistant from 1996-1998, has also interviewed for the vacancy in Cleveland. He went 29-51 over five seasons as the Lions’ head coach.
Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti said at a Tuesday press conference that he’s “very intrigued” by coaches like Schwartz who were hot coaching candidates and did not find great success in their first stops as a head coach. Brian Flores, Kliff Kingsbury, Matt Nagy, Vance Joseph, and Schwartz’s former boss in Cleveland Kevin Stefanski are others who fall into that category.
The deadline set by the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed into law in November 2025, for the Department of Justice (DOJ) to release the files was December 19, 2025, though the DOJ stated it would need "a few more weeks" to complete the release due to newly discovered documents. Which they admitted in the article above was "less than 1% of the Epstein files."
The last major batch of documents released by the Department of Justice (DOJ) came on December 23, 2025, consisting of nearly 30,000 pages.
So their "claim is" they will release them in batches as they go through them. It's been 22 days since a single file has been turned over.
Since Republicans are issuing contempt of congress charges, where is the contempt charges against the DOJ? How much longer will they exempt from following congressional orders?
I think you are getting to the meat of it. Disagreeing with the fed chair isn't unprecedented. Calling him names and attacking him verbally in public took it to another level. And now with investigations by using the DOJ as a tool against him has far exceeded anything close to normal and is a very dangerous precedent.
Rodgers is going to wander into the Peruvian jungle, drink the Yagé and decide his best move is some strong indica and six months of couch-lock.
If someone calls him to get off the couch, long after the grind of TC and the early season, he'll decide if that city if worthy of putting his cape back on and playing Super Hero.
I know that line is as old as the hills on granny's chest and twice as dusty but if you use it sparingly enough in just the right places it will still work every time.
I use it nearly daily and I've found that it doesn't even have to make sense; it's never not funny.
I heard Lindsey Halligan is available to fill in. That's how things usually end up when the DOJ tries to cover things up or prosecute cases that hold no merit for political reasons. People who try to uphold the law and act above board can no longer contribute to the bastardization of the justice system.
They don't have people acting like storm troopers randomly stopping people and acting like thugs on their streets either or you would see very similar protests to what you're seeing in targeted blue states.
Trump does this during a meeting with oil executives.............
Which budget would that be? The original 200 million dollar budget? The revised 300 million dollar budget or your latest revised 350 million dollar budget?
Donald Trump Declares Himself "Acting President Of Venezuela" In Viral Post
Styled like an edited Wikipedia page, an image, posted on social media, displayed Trump's official portrait and listed him as the "acting president of Venezuela".
The last political joke thread is well into page 13 so it's soon to be locked. I certainly didn't want this little gem to get buried......
WASHINGTON—Donald J. Trump warned Iran on Monday that any members of its Revolutionary Guard who use violence against protesters will immediately be recruited by ICE.
“If Iran thinks they can get away with cracking down on protesters without us recruiting the people doing the cracking down, they’re kidding themselves,” Trump warned.
Trump said that he had dispatched Kristi Noem to Tehran, adding, “If Kristi sees anyone murdering protesters, she will immediately swoop in and tell them about ICE’s benefit package.”
Responding to Trump’s threat, Iran’s Supreme Leader said he was raising the Revolutionary Guard signing bonus to $55,000.
Over the last few months, browsing isn't usually a problem. I usually see nothing wrong until I preview, click to full edit or actually try to execute a reply.
Same. Browsing is generally fine, it is only when posting/editing that I see the issue (typically) and that reinforces the deadlock theory.
So you can't see that posting that list without any other context would create a reaction from anyone else in response. How they see it as actions you want taken in and of themselves at this time.
I'm not sure how much more clear it can be. We know each others posting styles very well by now.

I'm not sure. Sometimes I don't think you are. Sometimes I do. Not so much you are really like that as a person per se but that it is more the type of thing you wish to convey in your posts. More that you use such tools as means of instigation rather than out of sincerity.
This game of semantics you're playing is pretty obvious here. I know you aren't so dense that you can't see I'm talking about your overall posting style and not a singular post. Are you really so intent on playing the semantics game? It's becoming quite the trend with you.
I've seen some reports that Iranian banks are closed and the regime has pulled something in excess of $500 BILLION from the banks.
People are taking over the capitol and I saw a video that claimed to show people tearing through the gates of one of the Ayatollah's estates. It's getting more and more real.
