Some conservatives are courageous (Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney, John McCain), and some liberals are cowards (Chuck Schumer, Hakim Jeffries), and vice versa. Blanket statements like that are counterproductive.

Tua was half the problem. Mike McDaniels was the other half.

Not really. The Ravens secondary is porous. Even the Saints moved the ball at will on them.

Chargers running their 2-minute offense at the end of the half, and on 2nd and 11, the so-called offensive genius Mike McDaniels calls… a run up the middle. Which gains one yard. Such. A. Genius.

That 4th & 1 play call by Green Bay on the 8 yard line was as idiotic as any I’ve seen this year, any game, any team. Hell, any SPORT.

This one may actually be appropriate. Having Trump as president is bad theater AND it feels like getting shot in the head.

Big debate on NFLN and ESPN over Watson vs Shedeur, when the best QB on the team - Dillon Gabriel - watches from the sidelines. This is why the Browns can’t have nice things.

Every day on every issue: Hearings, investigations, subpoenas, legislation that directs policy and how money should be spent (and rescissions when it isn’t ), lawsuits to enforce legislation, blocking nominees. Keep the focus (and media attention) on the grift, lawlessness, and corruption.

Continued dead-end attempts at impeachment erode the potential power of the mechanism as a tool of restraining executive excesses. Until Dems obtain a 2/3 Fetterman-free majority in the Senate, this angle is a feckless distraction and an excuse for not taking action. Just expose the corruption daily

Centrists/moderates have no greater claim on the support of progressives/leftists than the left does on the support of centrists. And vice versa. If your faction loses in the primary, and you don’t support the other in November, then STFU about whose fault it is when MAGA wins.

Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.

Each body of Congress has the final word on whether to seat an individual member, so yes. But refusing to seat one selected by a state is rare.

At $12,000 per apartment per month, or $400 per night, I sincerely doubt it’s saving any money. Which begs the question: to whom was the contract awarded?

It was broken from Day One. Cobbled together from disparate agencies with inconsistent missions and no real plan for integration, it was Congress and the Bush (43) administration “doing something” (symbolic) in response to 9/11, and creating an opaque, unaccountable mega-bureaucracy in the process.
