  1. CNN: Senate passes $95 billion package with aid for Ukraine and Israel, setting up showdown with the House

    All said and done, it took the neocons less than a week to write/pass this amendment and then pass the bill. I think it's hilarious Rand Paul was grandstanding about how he drug the process out :blink:. The vote was an easy 70-29. The amendment has all the spending. There's hardly a paragraph that doesn't spend $100s of millions. Space Force got $12M, FEMA only $10M:

    H.R. 815: RELIEVE Act vote

    S.Amdt.1388 to H.R.815 text

     

     

    I can't wait for the the exact opposite to happen in the House...

    Go get Pitt.  That would be a fun "after thanksgiving game" to see them play Penn State every year.  Right after Nebraska/Iowa.  chuckleshuffle

     

    Maybe grab Syracuse for the hoops and give Rutgers a friend. ;)

     

    And If you steal West Virginia, then it's a whole 'nother partay....  

     

    Throw in Stanford for volleyball. NU + PSU + Stan = 21 Nattys

    Yep.  FSU has an invite to the B1G even without being an AAU member.  They are still a top research and academic university in a state that we would love to get into.  ND keeps standing ground on not joining but the thinking is if FSU and Miami join, ND might be persuaded to join along with another ACC school of their choice.  

    You've stated this twice as fact. What's your source?

    Also, the AAU status for FSU doesn’t mean squat to the other B1G members but FSU is on their way to gaining it. 

     

    USF took that AAU invite away from FSU last year. FSU isn't close to being invited.

    I heard Miami has good academic credibility like ND. Although I somehow find the hard to believe. :confucius

     

    Like Notre Dame, Miami is in the AAU.

    And yes, the commies were allies at that time but we all know how that went.

     

    That is a good question though!  I will ask my Dad about that and see what he says.

     

    The Soviets and the Germans invaded Poland in 1939 so there is that!

    nazi soldiers did kill what would have been a great uncle of mine, in front of my grandmother who was just a girl...then they took her to a work camp for like a year.

     

    Wouldn't the Soviet Union have been an Allie when the Nazis killed you great uncle?

     

    How do you feel about the Ukrainian Nazis?
