As threatened by the Mighty Loyal One. Current events/issues. I expect few if any replies so don't fret over my tender feelings.... :). So:

Gaetz announces that he won't return to Congress. (Good IMHO, if only so that I don't have to see his creepy eyebrows anymore). Probably get some other job in the new administration?

Other Cabinet picks - there will likely be some real theater coming up. Hegseth (link below). So according to the police report at the time, he says the sex was consensual (even though he paid a settlement to her) and admitted that he ejaculated on her stomach. Wouldn't that be an abortion crime in Texas? Just the shit that I would like to read about myself 7 years later.


Linda McMahon (soon to be abolished Dept of Education) - lied about having an education degree? Meh so what. WWE wrestlers vs current students or 51% of Americans? IQ tie......

Tulsi Gabbard - I don't care what others think, she's hot. I really like her "Rogue from X-men" gray streak in her hair. She'll probably be fine.

Pam Bondi, new AG pick - she's also pretty damn good looking for a 59-year-old woman. After Gaetz, she should be confirmed no problem.

Kristi Noem, Homeland Security - again, she is smoking hot for a soon-to-be 53-year-old IMHO. Are we sensing a Cabinet trend here? I read somewhere that her first agenda item will be to deport all tribal members from the country. Starting with South Dakota tribes. Not sure where she will send them. Since they originally migrated from Siberia I guess that's a logical destination (If you don't get the joke, read up on where she is banned from all tribal land in her home state). Oh and dogs? Yeah they will get deported. But killed with shotguns first. Then airdropped over Haiti as relief food supplies.

So riddle me this - if Trump's Cabinet nominees are held up, does that mean the Biden Cabinet stays in place until that time? So could they huddle with JD Vance and invoke the 25th amendment? A couch in every living room! Yes I know, everyone already has a couch.

All that said, I look for a real clusterf*** come January and after. I boldly predict that many of the Trump/Project 2025 agenda items will face pushback from the Republicans after the potential impacts start affecting their constituencies. Further, the promised retributions may have little traction. Who will be left to retribute against other than stripping Dan Newhouse from all committees and moving his office to a latrine?

Ukraine? They will be dead to us. Europe had better already be ramping up missile, ammo, etc. production.

China and North Korea? I don't have a pun or prediction for them. Now we are talking some serious shit. I'm more than a little nervous on this. Although I am kind of cool with tariffs on China. We don't need their plastic shit. Although don't our solar panel components mostly come from there? Well that industry will die anyway under Trump. Don't buy their shit, and don't export any more food after they retaliate. Starve 'em to death. And since our #1 export to China of any kind is soybeans (fun fact, the crop originated in E. Asia), hah hah all you Blue state farmers who grow them! Uhh, wait........let me check that......

 
Matt Gaetz is an odd looking dude. I don't like judging by media, but more by a person's votes and actions.

I can't really say Matt Gaetz was good, bad, or indifferent, but when you're pissing a lot of people off... you better have something to show you're right and you know what you're doing.

I swear he could've been on the football team from Revenge of the Nerds

You are talking about me there, right? :)
 
"Current Events Thread" ?
Doesn't every thread on this board turn into one of those eventually?

Thank you for the Holiday Bowl Tickets
That was the only thing I could think of. I thought you were using a different alias in the past.

How are you doing? Hope all is well with you and the family! Still in the same location? I see your brother had some good news recently.

Edit: BTW, that comment was supposed to be a joke about myself. It may have missed the mark.
