I had/have a stutter. I largely outgrew it in high school (middle school was torture and my writing style and ability largely started there since I couldn't express myself verbally), but it never fully goes away. I've learned to quickly change words if I find myself stuck trying to articulate one, but still happens to this day. Especially when I'm really stressed or nervous. Biden does the same thing.

I can’t call a winner or a loser. We’ll see if Trump fucks up in the last 5.

“Children are being brought here by coyotes!”
This is gonna be the line that is remembered. WTF is Trump taking about. He lives in a different world.
Their parents use coyotes. One report said 30% of children were being used by non-relatives to gain access. If the 525 parents aren’t found, it’s because they don’t want to be. Any police station, any consulate, any government official would be able to put the parent in contact with ICE to recover their child. If your kid was in Canada, would you stop trying to reach the Canadian government to get your kid?

This is sleazy, but he did it in 16 to remind everyone Clinton stood behind her husband’s sleaze. It kind of worked in terms of neutering Clinton’s attacks.
My understanding are the Hunter Biden photos and accusations of smoking crack and fucking whores are true. I’ve not seen anyone say they’re fabricated. The DNI said it ain’t from Russia.
None of that means Biden did a fucking thing wrong. No one’s been able to provide any evidence of actual wrong doing. But if the back hallway handshakes happened (what father wouldn’t want to help his son impress someone else), it looks dirty. Democrats just spent 3 years running Trump through the mud on Russia and produced dick. I guarantee you sick Mueller on Biden’s associates and family, the crack pipe and Moscow prostitutes is just the icing on the cake.
If Trump wins tonight and shows the world Biden is not up to this challenge and they’re really putting in Harris and DNC handlers, maybe he can eek out a win. He’s within the margin of error with most states he needs. I don’t think it’s likely today, but I didn’t in 16 either. If people are fed up with the lockdown and covid deaths on a population overwhelmingly nursing home residents in extreme age, maybe Wisconsin and Pa break for Trump.
I just don’t think Trump can handle a formal debate. He’ll yell over Biden’s microphone. I think tonight will be a disaster and the door will swing shut on Trump.

It's funny how nobody ANYWHERE wants to answer this.
I mean... they can. There's decades of writing and academic study on gender, how it isn't binary and isn't fixed after being assigned at conception birth - even hundreds of years ago there are examples of gender fluid ideas in Native American tribes. If you are referring to biological sex of a person then fine sure, that's just describing someone's physiology though.
Flagg, you say that trans peoples "deserve to be loved and find happiness" and that they should be treated with "dignity and respect"... but also write
It's been 3 weeks since SGT Barnes got her medication to keep her fabricated vagina from closing shut.
Hardly a respectful tone that treats trans people with any dignity. Frankly, at best I doubt you actually give a shit about them at all and at worst I actually see a bit of hatred in the way that you write about them.
Anyway in political news... any of you see the polling about Texas these past few days?! I expect Trump still takes it but why the fuck is that state polling so tightly. Surely a bad sign for the Trump campaign generally.... right? Also... why is Arizona in play?!
There isn't much here dude. Native Americans concept of gender have no basis in modern day science, nor do I accept you're unsubstantiated claim. I'm unaware of females leading Native American tribes, so try again Englishman. I'll ask again, please define gender and provide a list of female and male gender traits. You can't do this, because the woke crowd believes gender is fluid and indefinable. If it can't be quantified or defined, it has no basis in an intellectual discussion. It's make believe.
Whether or not you're aware that Catelyn Jenner will be on medication the rest of her life to prevent her artificial vagina from closing like a wound doesn't negate its truth. Soldiers in a combat zone don't have access to this type of medication, nor should they.
There aren't decades of studies saying gender can be changed or isn't defined. All research on gender is based on the presence of the X or Y chromosome. It's based on sex, not what woke teenagers think is a new classification of people. How about we just acknowledge that people are male or female and have a very large amount of personality traits and sexual fetishes within those confines.
You're not going to win this one, so please don't start with the woke bullshit. If you however can define gender and provide a comprehensive list of gender traits unique to the two that actually exist, or even the constantly increasing amount of genders non STEM bases academics are pushing, go for it. But this information doesn't exist because it's at direct odds with the notion of what they want gender to be.
Please don't impugn my motives because you're completely ignorant on the subject. Until you can provide a compelling answer otherwise, I'll continue to use the historical oxford definition of "gender".

Biden’s offering kasich a cabinet position. Other conservatives as well. I’m getting more comfortable that we may be able to return to normalcy once he’s sworn in.

Gallup and the NY Times show the majority of Americans approve of Barret being confirmed, and oppose court packing. Like I said, packing the court isn't going to happen.

There are trans people who refuse to go along with being called women or men, they call themselves trans women or trans men because they have particular health issues and life experiences that are completely different than the biological sexes they identify as. They're pretty much ostracized from the woke.
They can label themselves whatever they want. They deserve to be loved and find happiness like every other human. What they don't get to do is shut down debate or the acknowledgement that testosterone is an enhancer and why transwomen dominate athletics over women. They don't get to compel others to play fantasy with them. Trump's ban of transgender people in the military isn't mean or bigoted. We don't deploy people on any kind of life sustaining medicine because we can't guarantee those medicines will be readily available in austere environments. "Sorry sir, PVT Snuffy is having a breakdown because we couldn't get his hormone injections delivered to FOB Alpha this weekend again. It's been 3 weeks since SGT Barnes got her medication to keep her fabricated vagina from closing shut."
