It's so difficult for some folks to stay on topic.
I don't follow baseball much anymore, but Marcell Ozuna's season thus far sounds incredible - including his .344 batting average.

This plan will work as well as their plan telling Americans they are too dumb to see how good the economy is, the Feebs and major democrat news shlls can pretend all they want but people living in the real world are seeing the crime all around them...and in their local news. Who ya gonna believe your lying eyes or the lying Feebs?

Was invited to a Saturday evening dinner at a local Mexican restaurant.  The joint was as big as a large grocery store.

It was packed.  Three dining rooms surrounded an open space bar that was chocked full of people...couldn't hear yourself think.

I estimated the gross receipts for that day to be about $150K to $200K.

Just shook my head...wondering what in the heck I was seeing.   :shrug: :shrug: :shrug:

OMG! No cameras following any other participants? Who released this video? How did it just now come to our attention? Questions, questions, questions, but surely Ray Epps needs FAR more public scrutiny than those who are "looking for answers" are willing to acknowledge. Praying this is the straw that breaks the camel's back.

And Liz Cheney has known it this entire time, yet helped the Democrats keep it buried.

Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey was busy shepherding Joe Biden around a Sheetz gas station the other day. Too busy to worry about policing in his city. Verona is down the river a bit but still in the same county, a working class community. Not sure what its problem is.

Yep. Like I said in another post, States need to act like their own nation.

Include ALL of Corporation for Public Broadcasting.  PBS is no better than NPR.  Leave it to the GOPe to only do half measures.

Leave it to GOPe to do nothing at all while recycling this as a campaign issue every election for the last 40+ years.  They promised to do this in 1980.  Yet here we are.

Because they've been spooned the old collectivist oppressor/oppressed dogma that the world is a terrible place, and want to be that edgy and supercool persona while 'making a difference' and 'changing the world'.

They don't realize that they're just recycling the same old Marxist agitation and deconstruction strategy of revolution since the 60's as they willingly play the useful idiots.

If I have one big complaint against Gen Z, they are overconfident with little to no resume, and tend to be legends in their own minds thinking they are on the cutting edge doing things that have never been done, that have been done many times over because they have zero knowledge of history.

California / Re: Celebrity chef blasts $50 minimum wage proposal
« Last post by Hoodat on Today at 03:28:44 pm »
A legitimate minimum wage is economically useful because it sets a floor and reduces marginal tit-for-tat bargaining that is not, at the margin, economically useful.

Who gets to define "legitimate"?  Some government bureaucrat making six figures who sets one-size-fits-all rules for an entire nation?  I agree with @the OlLine Rebel here.  Price controls are wrong.

The out-of-touch Democratic elites

For some of the young college students arrested after trespassing at Columbia University last week, it was not their first brush with the law.

One young woman from a $2.2 million home in suburban Atlanta had previously killed two senior citizens in Vermont when her pickup truck crossed over a double yellow line, crashing into the elderly couple’s smaller vehicle. They were killed instantly. Most of us would be in jail for such an incident. This young lady got off with a $220 traffic ticket because her father is a wealthy and politically connected CEO.

The activist students disrupting classes and shouting hateful rhetoric at Jewish students next to our homicidally negligent friend from Georgia are not like most of their fellow citizens. They are out-of-touch wealthy elites who seldom, if ever, are forced to pay for the consequences of their own actions.

Their priorities are not the priorities of most people. According to new polling from Harvard University, they aren’t even the priorities of most young people, most of whom are Democrats.

If someone goes online or to a college campus such as Columbia, one would think the most pressing issues for voters were the war in Gaza, climate change, and student debt. These drive far more activism on college campuses than anything else.

But according to the latest Harvard poll, out of 16 issues presented to respondents between the ages of 18 and 29, these three rank 12th (climate change), 15th (Israel/Palestine), and 16th (student debt).
