  1. Maybe they could add a specialty section of the facility like "The Bo Pelini Rage Room" where you can break s#!t and scream? Could also add the "Scott Frost Margaritaville Bar" for those 21+

  2. 1. I don't know about "millions" but for sure tens of thousands have died. None of this had to happen if Russia didn't attack Ukraine. 2. This war only exists because Putin attacked a sovereign nation. A nation which wants to be free, and a democracy. As Americans, we should support democracies everywhere. 3. Freedom has a price. You can pay that price in taxes, supporting democracies abroad, or you can ignore the struggle for democracy beyond our borders and wait until the fascists are at our borders. The latter cost isn't in dollars, it's in blood. Those of us who support freedom would rather spend a few dollars in taxes than a few pints in blood.

  3. This was posted over at another site but since the poster copied it from another board and the author stated anybody can post this anywhere I thought some here might be interested. Enjoy. Great observations from somebody that was at practice since we don't get much of that these days. Should really get your juices flowing. I added a few more paragraph breaks for readability and let the spell checker fix some typos.

  7. The assertion that Trump or Biden would have handled a close election the same way is ludicrous. If we're talking checks and balances, the cornerstone of American democracy has been the peaceful transfer of power, and Donald Trump is the opposite of that. In addition to not attending the inauguration ceremonies -- unlike disgraced popular vote winner Hillary Clinton and every other defeated candidate-- Trump has spent every waking hour spreading election falsehoods, and hailed his J6 supporters as heroes and martyrs while literally promising pardons and vengeance. Although now that you mention it, maybe Al Gore was a big pu&&y for conceding an extremely close election for the "good of the country." However I feel about abortion, I feel more strongly about Supreme Court candidates assuring Congress they will not seek to overturn Roe v Wade in order to secure their nomination. After which, they will very much seek to overturn Roe v Wade because each Supreme Court nominee was handed to Donald Trump on a short list by the Federalist Society, whose main criteria was the judge's willingness to overturn Roe v Wade. It's always fun to pretend it's simply about states rights. By "popular vote" I did not mean the the national popular vote, but the ability of those controlling the local state house to send their own slate of electors if they don't like the electors chosen by the people. That's been happening. The literal removal of checks and balances. However you want to dance around Donald Trump and Russia and dip back to the Obama administration for strained equivalencies, the emergence of a pro-Russia narrative among conservative media and lawmakers can be traced directly to Donald Trump standing next to Vladimir Putin and telling the world he trusted Putin over the unanimous consensus of America's 17 intelligence agencies. In addition to his attempts to weaken NATO while in office, the former President has a plan to end the war if he returns to the Presidency: just give Russia some land: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/04/05/trump-ukraine-secret-plan/ However you want to limit the most insane wing of Republican party to Marjorie Taylor-Greene and some ragtag extremists, they have assumed the power to make or break the Speaker of the House -- not exactly nothing. And while you may not want to call them "leadership" or even "the face" of the Republican Party, it's kinda moot if both the face and leadership of the Republican Party is the utterly bats#!t Donald Trump, doling out favoritism to the most bats#!tty loyalist, while the supposed mainstream of the party angrily rejects a Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley lifeboat. Presidential immunity is an interesting dilemma, although I think most of us plebes can understand the lines you can't cross, and that trying an ex-President for his criminal civilian behavior does not threaten national security and the social order in the way trying an acting President might. But maybe if we spend enough time musing about the complexities of Presidential immunity the Supreme Court can postpone any decision that might affect the Presidential candidate who stacked it. Why is it so hard for you to accept that everything you believe is horribly wrong?

  8. • Donald Trump was exonerated and will not be making Putin-friendly decisions in office. • Donald Trump isn't going to fight the results of the 2020 election • And if he does, Donald Trump isn't going to do something crazy, like instigate a violent coup. • And if he does instigate a violent coup, the Republicans will quickly distance themselves from him. The "election hoax" rhetoric will fade to oblivion and the GOP will return to issues-based campaigning. • As they distance themselves from Trump, the GOP will embrace saner alternatives, like Ron DeSantis. • Trump's Supreme Court appointees are reasonable folks who made it clear they're fine with the Roe v Wade precedent. Why are you freaking out? • The Marjorie Taylor Greene wing will not exert any significant influence on the party itself. • What paranoid world do you live in where Donald Trump inserts his daughter-in-law as the RNC chairwoman, and funnels the money to himself? • Our electoral college system held, and only a worrywort would think red state legislatures might take a lesson from 2020 and reengineer the rules to make it easier to overrule the popular vote. • And if they do, it probably won't come into play. Because Biden is going to win so handily over Joe Biden, even MAGA will accept defeat and work together to advance this great country of ours. • We remain a nation of laws. It's not like the Supreme Court is going to look America in the eye and say a President is immune from the laws we citizens must follow. That's a dictatorship, man. • And when the guy I voted for twice promises a scorched earth, day-one dictator second term, he's just kidding to get you libs riled up. What has he ever done to make you think he'll go off the rails and take as many people as possible with him?

  20. I'm curious why everyone is willing to throw NPR into the trash heap of biased journalism based on one person's statement. How much vetting has been done on Berliner's allegations? Here's one thread about that. These are just the first few posts. It's a long thread. Berliner does regurgitate Republican talking points that we keep seeing right here on HuskerBoard from everyone's favorite goalpost-mover. Why does someone who's apparently willing to fudge facts get so much up-front credibility?

  22. Not this again. Senate Russia report proves Trump collusion was very real. But do voters care? The Senate Intelligence Committee should be applauded for releasing the fifth and final volume of its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. With over 200 witness interviews and roughly 1 million documents reviewed, the nearly 1,000-page report documents in detail the comprehensive campaign conducted by Russian President Vladimir Putin and his proxies to seek influence within President Donald Trump's campaign, help Trump win the 2016 presidential election and amplify polarization and division within American society. Far from a hoax, as the president so often claimed, the report reveals how the Trump campaign willingly engaged with Russian operatives implementing the influence effort. For instance, the report exposes interactions and information exchanged between Russian intelligence officer Konstantin Kilimnik and then-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort. According to the report, campaign figures “presented attractive targets for foreign influence, creating notable counterintelligence vulnerabilities.” (Manafort was later convicted of tax and bank fraud.) Concluding one of the highest-profile congressional investigations in recent memory, the report also uncovers abuses within the U.S. government’s investigation of this operation. These methods require review and reform. The bipartisan tone of the majority of the report, released by a committee chaired by Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio, should be welcomed by all Americans who want our elected leaders to protect American sovereignty. National security should never be a partisan issue. Trump was not exonerated by my report, Robert Mueller tells Congress Mr Mueller said he had not exonerated Mr Trump of obstruction of justice. The former FBI director spent two years probing alleged collusion between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia, but did not establish collusion in a crime. He concluded that Russia had interfered in the election with the intention of benefiting Mr Trump's campaign. The questions focused largely on Mr Mueller's investigation of President Trump and his decision to say he could not exonerate the president of obstruction of justice, but Mr Mueller repeatedly stressed the importance of concerns over ongoing Russian interference in US democracy. "Over the course of my career I have seen a number of challenges to our democracy. The Russian government's effort to interfere in our election is among the most serious," he said. He added: "Much more needs to be done in order to protect against this intrusion, by the Russians but others as well."

  25. I'd be willing to bet money most of these kids have no idea that Hamas doesn't believe that Israel has a right to exist, that Hamas has declined the opportunity for the creation of a Palestinian state, or any number of things. All of this does not excuse Israel for conducting a poorly thought through and unnecessarily violent war. If there's ever a time to not care about either side in a conflict, it's one where neither side is interested in actual political resolutions to the underlying causes.

  27. I'm interested to know what offensive pieces and guys on the OL that you're not sold on? From what I've seen we've significantly upgraded at the WR position which was our second biggest flaw on offense a season ago behind only the abysmal QB play. I get the concerns with RPO and bubble screens considering our recent history with them, but the guys we've brought in this offseason are gamechangers compared to what we've had in the past. Fidone sees a completely different picture than last year when he catches an arrow off an RPO and now turns upfield to any combination of Banks, Bonner, Neyor, Boerkircher, and Coleman (when healthy). Opposing teams have NEVER had to respect that play in the past and could comfortably cheat toward the box. Then you add in the handful of deep-threats we now have and this is a completely different offense from anything we've seen since. I'm not saying we're going to be the number one offense in the BIG, but I think you're looking at a ceiling of top 5. And while I'm not drooling over any of our RBs I think all of them offer at least one skill that is above average. If you can't stuff the box (lol) against us, then tackling guys like Dowdell and Gabe (if he can stay healthy) becomes a tall order come fourth quarter. And Emmett has put on some good weight this offseason and is not afraid of contact either. This team doesn't need a 20+ carry back a game. We need down-hill runners that can wear down a defense in the second half, do their job in pass pro, and don't have bricks for hands. And so far I've been pleased in all of those regards. This will allow plenty of single coverage looks and I'm pretty confident in the WRs on this roster to go make some plays. I believe this is the most stacked WR room we've had in a while. And if you came out of that scrimmage (glorified practice) thinking anyone but DR is the guy, you either watched it blindfolded or are personally related to the other two QBs. Don't get me wrong, I think HH is a solid backup with an upside to see some QB-power around the goal line (although I'm not a fan of switching out guys down there) and I think Kaelin has a really bright future. But DR is special. There will definitely be growing pains but his skill set and intangibles are elite. Everyone talks about DR's arm talent and rightfully so, however, I've been just as impressed with his pocket presence and field vision. That stuff is so hard to teach, and the casual fan has no idea how difficult it is to go through reads while correctly sensing and reacting to the oncoming rushers.

  28. Nebraska was the clear leader two weeks ago. After the Alabama OV, "experts" went with the tide because they couldn't see Dawson picking us over them. Raiola (His visit host) and HCMR are recruiting him personally. His dad is a coach for the Kansas City Chiefs and his mom has hit it off with Dylan's mom. Nebraska also has a clear vision for him on D compared to other schools (Jack position). Proximity matters here too. All in all, I think Nebraska is going to get him.

Or maybe you’re just stupid and refuse to believe it in the face of overwhelming and unquestionable evidence. There are only two choices here. 1) you are amazingly stupid and don’t deserve an opinion or 2) you are also a traitor to the US and deserve the fate of a traitor. Well and a 3rd option I guess, both.

  38. It's about time struggling and even relatively stable citizens start benefitting from taxpayer funded relief the same way the ultra rich and massive corporations do. Interesting editorial from Phil calling the 750k people with 20+ years of repayment the biggest winners, since they're neither the biggest by number of people impacted, amount of money impacted, or amount of income impacted. I'd say the 16 million people having interest waived and the 360,000 significantly poorer folks having a much larger chunk of their financial burden relieved are both bigger winners in different perspectives.
