Dem presidents should campaign on removing Justice Roberts, Justice Thomas and Justice Alito from SCOTUS. If the laws mean nothing to Republicans, they shouldn’t mean anything to Dems

Baron Trump isn’t a legal citizen and Democrats should campaign on sending him to El Salvador. Melania can join him too, she is also an illegal citizen.

I think Newsome and Pritzker are good punchers, but you need an Andy Beshear-type character to play the nice guy that can appeal to moderate Christians. He’s my pick.

I don’t disagree with that. But somebody needs to be using creative ideas to fire up the voting base. Nothing excites people more than knowing they are voting for retribution for being wronged, just ask Trump republicans.

Oh no, I’m saying send the FBI to physically rip them out of their robes and kick them off of the property.

If the President can remove a Federal Reserve board member, they can remove SCOTUS. I’m totally fine with expanding the Court, too.

Democrats need to campaign on removing corrupt SCOTUS judges. Fire them and replace them with judges who can follow the constitution. Republicans don’t care about the law, why should Democrats?

I wish @starsandstripes.bsky.social would give Hegseth the treatment he deserves instead of puff pieces for political cover and the armed forces and being forced into politics. Might be worth some journalism.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

You have to grab and restrict for holding (this was a collision)

Why are “rub routes” illegal when the pass is caught beyond the LOS? BC the offensive player doesn’t avoid the defender and initiates contact. Join a football association and try to give back, you might learn something

If you want to take Russell Yurk’s word as the law, go for it!
Some people are able to process the information and make our own decisions. If you didn’t want to interact, you shouldn’t have responded!

“Everyone knows” well reasoned point my friend.

If it’s incidental contact, or both players are playing the ball, there’s no foul.

Rule 7-3-8-b

“It is the responsibility of the offensive player to avoid the opponents. It is not
offensive pass interference”

I’m going to agree with the NFL officials on the field! The guys who actually study film and rules. It’s ok to have different opinions! It would be a worse product if they’re bailing bad passes out with low quality fouls.

It’s ok to not know everything.. It’s even ok to think this is DPI! But be honest with yourself, have you ever read a football rule book? NFHS, NCAA, NFL?

pgreenkc.bsky.social @pgreenkc.bsky.social · 8d

They ran a pick play and the QB threw to the wrong WR. NFL doesn’t do bailout calls. TV guys trying to soften the blow.

It’s the offensive players responsibility to avoid the defender. This is just incidental contact.
