I certainly haven't seen any crowds gathering under images of Marshall lately.
So you're basically saying you don't see how these things just feed into each other exponentially, you know? You really ought to take Toreov's advice.
INCIDENT AT THE ANNIVERSARY FLASH EVENT IN KANSAS CITY: President Biden walks out of ceremony because of a guy wearing an old-school extremist symbol
So here it is for everyone who actually voted for Joe Biden, just your typical small-time gossip monger and bottom-tier politician right here.
That pretty much sums up how he doesn't have any time for these far-right extremists or the old-school partisans either, which is really just another one of those "incidents" where they try so hard to force these outdated political battles back into the public conversation.
So, who’s actually going to step up and take down Ed Koch? Everyone keeps acting like he’s already out of the picture, talking about him like he’s a ghost, and they’ve been doing it for years now, but people seem to forget that he isn't just going to vanish—someone actually has to go out there and beat him at the polls.
As long as there isn't a heavyweight contender standing across from him on election day, he’s just going to keep holding onto that seat.
If Tomasevic is really the most serious challenger we have coming up in the next cycle, then honestly, you might as well just hand Ed Koch another term right now.
So, why didn't Bacic show up with those bags full of hunting loot funded by black money meant for Sanders? There’s always some kind of story floating around about that stuff...
I mean, look, Capak is just a political appointee, basically running the CDC, so what's actually surprising about that?
The US should be dropping those national antibody testing results any day now, which honestly feels like a massive turning point
Once the government gets these numbers, it’s basically going to dictate how they start easing up on all those lockdown restrictions during this whole epidemic mess
Meanwhile back here in the States, the CDC is busy measuring the height of restaurant tables, carving out plexiglass shields everywhere, and probably calculating the exact distance between a tennis ball and a player's mouth during a serve or something equally useless...
It’s basically checkmate right out of the gate, you know, because if we don't win over those undecided voters immediately, then once they start thinking Jack is actually onto something, there won't be any way to pull them back to our side.
Matthew Young35 said:Are you kidding me? Even Pinochet didn't have much trouble with Chile.
By the way, I just stumbled upon the Wikipedia entry. The intro on Pinochet: Augusto José Ramón Pinochet Ugarte (Valparaíso, November 25, 1915 – Santiago, December 10, 2006), statesman, general, and President of Chile. He led a four-man military junta[1] that overthrew socialist President Allende in 1973. His rule lasted until 1990. Later, he implemented economic reforms that aided the development of the Chilean economy.
Is there even a single fascist dictator they don't find a way to glorify?
And what exactly were they lying about, because Pinochet brought in those Chicago Boys who basically took a struggling socialist economy and turned it into the second most powerful powerhouse in South America.

I mean, I totally get where you're coming from, though if you really think about it, places like Ireland or Sweden feel way more connected to us than some random spot in Asia ever could.
honestly, it’s not even a big deal, I mean if they had actually been serving up some high-end mahi-mahi or something, then maybe I would’ve even cracked a smile about it 😂
Honestly, in that weirdness of a pandemic-era game, Coach Reid’s whole "calculated risk" approach totally blew Mourinho’s defensive bus out of the water 🙏🙏🙏

Look, you’re basically a pro in my book, and honestly, it’s been forever since I even touched a chessboard, so there is zero chance I’m winning this one.
Anyway, I’m circling back to the whole COVID situation because honestly, it’s looking more and more likely that the folks over in Sweden are actually going to come out on top in this fight against the virus, and I was reading some data today suggesting that based on the math, the peak of the pandemic in Germany hit around March 18th, yet they didn't even pull the trigger on a full lockdown until March 22nd, which pretty much leads me to the dead-certain conclusion that those sweeping, total lockdowns were completely unnecessary, and Sweden is basically proving that point in real-time right now.
I mean, look, certain measures make sense, sure, but a total shutdown? Not really. We could have handled this entire mess with way fewer restrictions and we probably would have ended up with the exact same result in the end.
