Don’t send him out here!!!
Commenter #1 on an Arizona board:
Tubberville in Westwood would be hilarious. He’d last 6 minutes into his first press conference.

Commenter #2:
Only if they started 4 minutes late.
I don't know what Westwood is, but this is hilarious! So glad it looks like they senate is going to be able to address some of his gridlock. I hate McConnell, but he's pragmatic and not entirely anti-American when he says he doesn't like the DoD policy either but it's more important to get the promotions and positions approved for the sake of national security.

I suggest that UCLA is studying its option for a new coach for next year.

Maybe his people should talk to their prople?
Texas A&M has an opening.
Maybe Michigan too :whistle:
If Michigan beats OSU while Harbaugh is on suspension, there may be another opening in Ohio as well.

Um... So much for "to the winners go the spoils." I guess that only applies to MAGA.

I suspect "TxGirl11020" is a bot/troll. Handles with numbers in them are all fake bots anyway. :whistle:

Aha, Westwood is associated with UCLA basketball, but not so much football because they play off campus.

GOP senators’ late night effort to approve military nominations fails to overcome Tuberville and Lee hold

Republican Senators Tommy Tuberville and Mike Lee maintained the Alabama Republican’s hold on military nominations despite a group of Republican senators who attempted to push through nominations when they returned to the Senate floor in the wee hours of Thursday morning.

Sens. Dan Sullivan, Joni Ernst, Lindsay Graham and Todd Young began their effort to confirm nominees around 12:15a.m. ET and wrapped around 3:45a.m. ET.

Tuberville was joined by Lee, who objected to confirming every nominee brought up for consideration. Once it became clear that Lee would speak at length every time he objected, the group of senators began reading the resumes of each of the nominees rather than attempting to confirm them one at a time.

As he objected, Lee acknowledged that he understood his colleagues’ concerns about military readiness and politicizing the military and noted that he wouldn’t necessarily have chosen the same approach as Tuberville. However, he insisted that he needed to “defend” the Alabama Republican.

“Notwithstanding the fact that it’s not the particular tactic that I would have chosen, he’s chosen a tactic that’s legitimate, that he has every right to deploy under the rules of the Senate,” said Lee.

Because while they pay lip service to the antivaxxers they make sure to keep all their vaccinations up to date.

The DoD might be paying for a woman to travel to get an abortion "AFTER birth". This man is so stupid.

The bottom right corner of the tweet has an up arrow. Click on that and select Copy Link. The copied link will look something like this:

https:// x .com/RonFilipkowski/status/1725271716560097467?s=20

(I've added spaces so it won't execute.)

You can delete the ending *** ?s=20 ***. It's unnecessary. Then change the x to twitter. x.com doesn't really exist. Web browsers know to convert that to twitter.com. Within this posting software, we have to make that change manually.

It's horrifying to think that she has spent lots of money to look like that. And she probably thinks she looks better than most women out there. That's just warped.

Tell ya what, Coach, how about if the Pentagon makes a policy change so that they will pay for the mother to travel but if the baby is born first it has to stay behind.
