"I talked to an NFL scout last week..." "Last year rounds 6 and 7 wiped out from NFL, this year rounds four through seven wiped out from NIL." @AndrewBrandt discusses the impact NIL has on the NFL Draft on this week's Business of Sports:9
Spare me. 50.7% of the electorate voted to give themselves 90.1% of congressional seats and disenfranchise nearly half the state.
Hot take: putting hot rotisserie chicken on food stamps is common sense. Arkansas took items like candy and soft drinks off SNAP. Now let’s put healthy, affordable options like hot rotisserie chicken on.
SHOULD SNAP RECIPIENTS BE ABLE TO BUY ROTISSERIE CHICKEN This is an actual debate happening right now. A group of lawmakers has introduced legislation that would allow recipients to purchase hot rotisserie chickens with their benefits. Currently they are only able to buy cooked rotisserie chickens once they have been cooled down. Your Thoughts?
The Vice President of the USA only earns $235,100. The Speaker of the House earns $223,500. Members of Congress make $174,000. Thousands of USAID employees, contractors and "VP of non-profit" were living large on taxpayer funding and generating nothing of any value. It was all fake work for left wing activists.

THEY DID THE BIDEN BUMP IN VIRGINIA
VIRGINIA OK, I am trying to organize my thoughts about yesterday's vote in Virginia. Here is my analysis from my capturing of the election night reporting data. There was an "f-curve" at 8:59pm that was actually preceded by a near f-curve at 8:43. These 2 updates wiped away what had been a decent lead for "no redistricting". Interestingly, at 9:16 there was another big jump for "yes". From my analysis, most of the votes from all 3 of these came from Fairfax County, one of Virginia's most reliable vote manufacturing hubs. My old pet peeve, totals going down rather than up, was way too frequent. 23 counties had at least one case of "negative votes", including Chesterfield's whopping 71,903 deduction at 10:45 this morning (April 22). Augusta had a 11,968 deduction at 10:18. A whopping 13 counties had deductions in the SAME REPORT at 7:41PM on the 21st (for a total of 18,476). This is not acceptable and needs explained. (Other than, "well these numbers aren't official". They are official enough to show on the news.) And, of course, the referendum was ultimately lost because of mail-in votes. About 10% of the total was mail-in, and about 73% were "yes". We have no way of knowing how many of these were real people casting a vote for themselves, but they added net 137,000 votes for "yes" and that is almost 50,000 more than the currently reported winning margin for "yes". (The same applies for the election of Commissar Spanberger) In summary, a completely preventable train wreck. I hope that the Republican leaders in Virginia are now convinced that mail-in ballots and machine counting are not our friends. I also hope they start asking the hard questions of counties like Chesterfield. It's going to be easiest to read this, shrug, and move on. Please don't. Please forward on, especially if you know people in Virginia. But the same thing will happen in every other state, eventually, if its not stopped. You can see the raw data for yesterday's election at votedatabase.com/2026 - select Virginia, unknown party, then statewide or whatever county you want to examine. I'm here if anyone has questions.
@MaryTracy1101 @SenseiOfSarcasm @GovPressOffice The bigger the pool, the cheaper it is. Its free when you use it.
@TPCarney Okay so then where's the Republican standalone bill to ban political gerrymandering?
