    Wtf...mandatory or not, as a parent i would not feel comfortable sending my kid to school if the other was possibly exposed and waiting on a test result. At some point, people need to take control and not just wait for Mr government to tell them what to do.

    We all know that Trump won't lose any sleep if Christie dies. After Herman Cain passed way in July, Trump is on record as saying his rallies outside never caused any problems with Covid 19. So, the man is a lying, miserable son of a *****. And all these hangers on like McConnell, Hannity, McElhenny, Cruz, Rubio, etc are the real losers here.

    Solid article on the moments after the trade deadline for Collards from his point of view. Goes to show how wonderful it is for players to come here. I love the fact we are a desirable destination for players. Too funny.

    Not at all. Harper tried to use the power of government to discriminate against Muslims before Trump did (Barbaric Cultural Practices Hotline) He refused to speak out against anti-Muslim violence before Trump had the opportunity to ignore it. Harper muzzled scientists before Trump did Harper government removed the word "Environment" from the Environment Canada website. Trump admin has removed climate change references from gov websites. Harper called the Kyoto Protocol a "socialist scheme" before Trump started talking that way. The Harper government gutted protections for fresh water before Trump could do it. Tell me how Trudeau is more like Trump than Harper was, because your simple assertion does not make it so.

    Context? The POTUS just dropped an F-sharp on national radio. And threatened Iran with war or nukes. In any other administration this would be huge news... but with all the **** going on, ln a daily basis... we are numb to this.

    Hilarious. According to CNN the Biden campaign raised $350,000 by selling out their fly swatters imprinted with the words “Truth over Flies” a takeoff of their slogan “Truth over Lies”. They sold 35,000 swatters at $10. apiece.

    Yup. Consider who the National Deputy Chairmen for the RNC Campaign were: Michael Cohen Steve Wynn Elliotte Broidy Louis Dejoy "Little did we know at the time what would soon become of the four men listed in this press statement. Steve Wynn, for example, was forced to resign from his RNC post following sexual misconduct allegations. (The RNC was pressed to return his money. It refused.) Elliott Broidy, as regular viewers of The Rachel Maddow Show know, found himself at the center of multiple controversies. Michael Cohen, of course, was recently released from prison, and will apparently soon release a highly provocative book. And then there's the fourth name on the list: Louis DeJoy, the nation's current postmaster general, who appears to be helping Trump sabotage his own country's postal system, and who appears to be facing some awkward ethics questions." *Broidy was charged for an illegall lobbying scheme yesterday. https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/usps-s-louis-dejoy-makes-his-mark-part-motley-gop-n1236729

    I would love to do an audit on his campaign contributions, where the money came from and where it went. It would be quite incredible, I'm sure. Two full presidential campaigns? I bet his kids looted quite a bit.

    Great move to bring back Stastney ... Still has lots of game and from what I heard when he was here last was a good friend of Laine...Should keep Patrik happy and the second line centre we've been looking for,,,,This should end all of the speculation regarding moving Laine....I wonder if we have enough dough to go after Hamonic...I know at one time he wanted to be closer to home and that would be here....Not a super star D guy but pretty competent ..Wouldn't mind seeing him here

  31. I thought it was all but confirmed that Little was retiring? With all he's been through, now seems like a really good time for him to transfer into a front office role with the club....

    Could not be more straightforward than this: Sitting Senator (republican) Mike Lee, Utah, Twitter. ”Democracy isn’t the objective; liberty, peace, and prospefity are. We want the human condition to flourish. Rank democracy can thwart that.” and comment by John Broich, PhD to this “I know this has appeared in everyone's timelines multiple times today, but I just thought it'd be worth stating, as someone who teaches this stuff, that this is chapter-and-verse fascism.“

    I'm assuming you mean it wouldn't save the planet. True enough, but considering it was implemented 15 years ago and provided a foundation for countries to work towards reducing carbon emissions, I don't think it can be so easily dismissed. Harper, being the first to repudiate it altogether, did less than zero to advance the initiative.

    I think Little is retiring and that's why they were able to take on Stastny.

    Love it. Would have liked to have them retain a little bit, but eh. That's fine. The cap space is there for this reason. Another good move by Chevy.

    The Kyoto protocol was a socialist scheme. I mean i am fine with governments trying to tackle climate change but Kyoto was just a wealth transfer scheme.

  43. He's still a strong 2C and his chemistry with Laine and Ehlers two years ago was so fun to watch. IMO, this trade would be a smart and solid stop gap for a season but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want Vegas to retain some of that $6.5M cap hit.
