Friend of mines a big ACDC fan. Had tix to the show. He was on the fence about the whole Axl/DC thing, but ended up going. Sent me a text the next day, saying it was a great show, and Axl delivered. I didn't expect it but yeah he said he was solid.

Doesn't bode well for Biden's agenda.  No medicare for all.

She's gotta be less divisive. A dem in WV or whereever can't be the extremist liberal one in NYC is. It takes coming together & a bit being a moderate. I heard tho she probably wants the Speaker Of The House role in the future, so she's likely trying to take charge with things like this. A bit much if you ask me, ditch the Twitter shit as well.

I think he felt Fox News wasn't lock step with him enough at the end of the campaign and he's holding a grudge, and words out he might goto this Newsmax if they offer him enough $$. Sounds crazy, but a channel like that would likely go into debt to pull some of the ratings he'd bring, also be a Howard Stern/Sirius type deal where he shares heavily in the profits (ad sales) and get a minority ownership interest.

They've already tried Trump TV at the beginning of his presidency, so no doubt they'll try to go back to that. I've heard he's going to start a Super Pac and, of course, a potential 2024 run.

I think its mostly a moneymaking scheme. I think PAC's are independent and not subject to fimance laws.

So now that every network is saying the ACA will stand (SHOCKER!), do we get to denounce those who said ACB was an assault on the ACA?  At what point are people held accountable for their constant fear mongering and lies?  Or do we just ignore that behavior because it was all justified in the crusade against the bad orange man (like every other boogeyman the left has created)?

I'm pretty sure trumps on record saying his goal was to 'End Obamacare'. Also, he stated on multiple occassions he would soon announce his own healthcare bill, telling Chris Wallace in the summer (June) he was a few weeks away from it being complete. He never released it and there is no record of any GOP healthcare bill. Without any controls in measure, if he had the ability, trump would have ended ACA on Day 1 if he could. Hence, checks & balances are in our government.

#236 Re: The Sunset Strip » GNREvo's Favourite Album of the Century so far, FINAL ROUND » 313 weeks ago

Foo fighters probably deserved an album. They're wierdly consistent tho. I think around 2005 they had a great album, or one with alot of hits. Grohl was on fire thru the 2000s, but they kinda became just montonous. Since 2010 I'm not sure they've dona alot for me.

RHCP & The Killers were missing imho. VR too, surprised it didn't make it but Contraband is good, but imho if CD  makes it VR gets cut. It is what it is big_smile

#237 Re: The Sunset Strip » GNREvo's Favourite Album of the Century so far, FINAL ROUND » 313 weeks ago

Seems its Audioslave FTW.  Give it another few votes I suppose.


Anyone care to list their Top 5?  Going off the main list I'd say:
1. Green Day - American Idiot
2. Audioslave - Audioslave
3. Radiohead - Kid A
4. Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
5. White Stripes - Elephant

(I'm not a big radiohead or White Stripes fan, kinda basing them off word of mouth & reviews. Didn't like Linkin Park but too many hits to not include it)

#6 The Killers - Sams Town

I think he wants all the states completed to see what his options are. For instance, if when the dust settles & he's within 20 of 279, he'll fight PA pretty heavily and come up with a bunch of crazy lawsuits, including possibly going the nuclear option and having the PA (GOP) legislature inject their own EC to vote. This has been speculated and it'd be a drastic measure to overturn the will of the people, there would be major civil unrest, I'm not sure the state legislature would follow along, especially not by this wide a margin. Regardless, he would claim the entire mail-out process was currupt and an unfair attempt to unseat him.

It just seems he's too far behind, in too many states, that anything even remotely minor comes of it, let alone actual traction. But, I think he's waiting to see how many states & EC votes he needs before really proceeding.

Every lower court who received a filing so far has thrown it out without even hearing it. So there's that.

Dude the attorney general can by pass all that shit if he has something. This isn’t some detective with the Pittsburgh PD, this is the AG.

Still goes thru the courts. He only 'presses charges', akin to a lawyer would. He's shyte anyway & just a trump lapdog.
