As a Kings fan living in Utah, I’m willing to adopt them as my second team. But any good vibes I had were kind of killed by this. I’m hoping there is more to the story and these names aren’t serious. https://www.sltrib.com/sports/2024/04/18/utahs-new-nhl-team-only-has-half/# “It will 100 percent be ‘Utah,’ and then it will be ‘Utah Something,’ obviously,” Smith told NHL.com. “I don’t think given this timeline that we’re going to have time — or nor should we rush with everything else that’s going on — to go force what that is in the next three months.”

I'm pretty sure New Yorkers hated him before he announced he was running in 2015. Trump has over forty years of shadiness before he even got sworn in.

I don't think anyone, including Iran, has the stomach to go to war. In their mind they had to retaliate against Israel to save face for when their consulate got bombed by them and to show their people they did something. But they knew none of their missiles were going to get through and do anything to cause casualties. Hence why they gave a week's notice of what they would be doing. So now it is back to square one for the time being. They are just threatening Israel if they retaliate. Wash, rinse and repeat.

Of all the things Biden overturned, I'm not sure why tariffs weren't one of them. But Biden is doubling down and Trump has promised more. Not a big fan.

Trump got the vicious part right so kudos. But beautiful?

I'm about 5 minutes in and there have been plenty of weak ground outs, fly outs to end the game, some walks, singles (infield, doinks, solid contact). Had a game tying homerun. If he got on base via a hit and there was a man on base already, he didn't score. Which I am okay with since he didn't produce an out and extended the inning. The only frustrating part was the announcer would then make the comment "...and that will bring up Pujols." That didn't inspire a lot of confidence. Glad Inside Pitch could provide some much needed perspective.

I know Trout has had some clutch moments in his career. But for all the shit people give the Angels for wasting Trout’s prime with only one post season appearance, you have to recognize Trout holds some of that responsibility himself. I don’t blame him for being injured the last few years. But you have the go ahead runner in scoring position, you have to come through. No one can blame the Angels for Trout striking out. That’s who anyone would want up in that situation and he fails to come through. Frustrating.

Nothing new unfortunately.

Yep so if you were raped and lived in Arizona you couldn't get an abortion before Roe. So you are right, it was working like it was intended with a world view of 1864.

I agree. Biden was allegedly skeptical of any troop surges for Afghanistan after he became Vice President in 2009 and I don't think his heart was behind that war anymore minus more limited counter terrorism missions. He seemed to understand how futile Afghanistan was. So I would hope that Joe would not allow the U.S. to get entangled with Iran. Jokes aside about Biden and his mind, I have no idea how different 2009 Joe Biden is from 2024.

Yes, because it got so less divisive after it was overturned. We went all the way back to 1864 in Arizona and in Texas you might die as the fetus inside you is dying (and possibly preventing a woman from having more kids if she survives) so she has to go to another state to potentially save her own life (pro life!). I personally don't like that abortions happen (minus rape, incest or health of the mother) but it is none of my god damn business what someone else chooses to do. As a conservative, I thought we were supposed to stay in our lane so to speak and not have too much government intrusion. But here we are with some of these states going above an beyond overreach. Republicans wanted to overturn it for so long so we'll see how it potentially hurts them in the long run. Maybe it doesn't but I have my doubts. Teach the basics in sex education and don't ban it anywhere. Teaching abstinence is fine by me but go above and beyond that. We could possibly prevent unwanted pregnancies and therefore abortions aren't happening as much. Is it a perfect system? Absolutely not but anything and everything helps.

End Wokeness needs to hire someone to proofread their tweets.

When you surround yourself with Paul Manafort and Roger Stone, I guess “drain the swamp” rings a bit hallow. But I guess Branco and Redondo can’t compute that.

The real tragedy was he was never able to find the real killers before he died. Such a shame.

Trump and Biden and both signed off on massive budget deficits. Our last surplus was in 1999 and 2000. Since then we have had two Republicans and Democrat presidents. Both parties have controlled the House, Senate and the White House at some point in the last twenty four years and each year has had a deficit to add to the overall debt. I really just don't see a difference anymore.

Still one of the best articles on his last game and passing. https://www.espn.com/mlb/news/story?id=4075761

I was going to go with black on black crime but I’m leaning towards your theory.

I’m assuming she enjoyed your uncircumcised dick though? If so, you should have called her out on her hypocrisy.

Whatever it was, they didn’t see it as Kosher.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-dismiss-two-officers-after-finding-mistakes-strike-aid-workers-2024-04-05/ “As the cars departed the hangar, one of the men getting into the vehicles had been carrying a bag which the operators watching drone footage took to be a rifle.” Remember when our last four presidents droned wedding parties and laborers working in fields? Looks like Israel was taking notes.

How do you feel about him defrauding people with Trump University? About stealing from his own charity? Was he a victim? Or was he guilty?

I’m not an expert in this field. I figured I would post the report from February 2020 March 2024 and one can decide if we’ve gotten worse, better or stayed the same. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/empsit_03062020.pdf https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf

I’m disappointed the story didn’t include them coming to him with tears in their eyes and calling him “sir.” Missed opportunity if I say so myself.
