I honestly don't even know anymore. I guess we need to know what the top line number of the salary is that Moos would offer. $2M won't get any big name here.

I agree with Dirk's assessment that anything short of a big time hire and the basketball program is set back 5 years.

The sexual encounter happened in 2016. There was a video taken. The video was distributed at the school of the girl and the 2 guys in the video. One of the people that received the video in 2016 was Maurice Washington as he went to that school as well. One of the males in the video was charged and received probation for distribution of the video. Not for an assault. The 3 in the video were expelled from the school. The reason why the girl was expelled was because at the time, it was ASSUMED it was consensual because no one said otherwise. The students that received the video were directed to delete it. Maurice Washington, it appears, did not do that. FAST FORWARD to 2018. Girl reaches out to Mo to say congrats. They start talking and he wants a sexual relationship with her. When she declines, he gets mad. She deletes him from social media. He sends her the video. These are her, and the police reports words. The video is intercepted by her mother. They call the police and here we are. She says she didn't initially call it non-consensual, or assault, or rape, because she felt ashamed. She now says that it was assault. Believe her or don't. NO ONE HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH AN ASSAULT AND THERE HAS BEEN NO EVIDENCE TO PROVE THAT IT WAS AN ASSAULT. The police were saying Mo COULD face charges related to an assault because he was refusing to speak to police so they had no idea what he knew or didn't know at the time the video was taken. I think it is safe for us as Husker fans to not get wrapped up in the assault piece of this. There is such a low chance that Mo will face any charges relating to an assault. Let's focus on the distribution part. That is where he is going to get in trouble if he in fact gets in trouble.

If our government would just address the tax loopholes that exist today, there would be no need to vilify people that make money and get them to pay for everything based on new special taxes. Amazon made $11B in profit in 2018. They will receive a refund from the government because of tax incentives and loopholes. Think about that. Trump did a disastrous thing by lowering the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. Amazon turned that into a -1% tax rate for themselves on $11 BILLION DOLLARS.

I must have missed that "fan." Yes. That fan will have to do some walking back for sure

I'm all for the ultra wealthy for paying their fair share but taking money from them like this is nowhere near fair.

I am very surprised Nunes didn't put up a fight.

You said people will be walking back based on what Frost does with Washington. What will they be walking back?

I just didn't understand the "walk back" part of your statement.

I don't recall anyone saying they wouldn't still be a Husker fan if Washington didn't receive the punishment they think he deserves. I thought he should be gone from the team. I've since softened that stance to 4-6 games suspension. If Frost decides anything less than that, I'm still a fan of Nebraska football.

It's just their opinion, why would they have to walk it back?

Alabama newspaper editor calls on KKK to lynch Democrats https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-47295551?ocid=socialflow_twitter "If we could get the Klan to go up there and clean out DC we'd all been better off," he said. "We'll get the hemp ropes out, loop them over a tall limb and hang all of them."

Isn't that what I said?

We should pray that he shot himself in the dick so he couldn’t reproduce again.

I did watch. I came away feeling better about my decision to support her. Shes not selling a pipe dream. Which I like. I don’t believe in free college for all. And she’s not up there promising it. She knows that something has to be done about healthcare but she’s not pushing a magic pill like some other candidates that we will just tax the rich for everything and we will be okay. She likes the ideas in the Green New Deal but doesn’t feel 10 years is an attainable goal for the whole thing. This, to me, is the true honest candidate. Her ideas will appeal to moderates and likely some conservatives where people like Warren and Sanders will not because they go too far to the left.

We’ll see how genuine Sasse is if the House passes a resolution on the emergency and the Senate is forced to vote. I wouldn’t hold my breath that he does the right thing

Please define “royally” as a reference point for a Trump screw up. Because he has a lot of them right now

Yes because it’s not about what someone else might theoretically do. It’s a gross overstep by any president and that is what should be a senators concern.

Put the scenario into the others hands. Say Obama declares a national emergency on guns after any of the countless gun attacks that happened while he was president. And took money from the military to fund whatever action he deemed necessary. Ben Sasse would have been screaming about it. Then Trump gets elected and declares the national emergency to fund the wall. Do you honestly believe Sasse would speak up against it or would he shrug it off because that’s what Obama did? If your answer is he would be opposed, you’re kidding yourself Sorry. I was going to write something and accidentally hit submit. Disregard this.

He’s not my senator.

Then he should have just come out against it as a whole of presidential overreach. But he didn’t. He came out in fear of what a Democrat might do

It’s not necessarily a “problem” it’s more that his issue with what is happening is more about what a Democrat president theoretically will do as opposed to what a republican president has actually done.

The republican government is dysfunctional

Klobuchar will have a Town Hall on CNN tonight
