Re: House Republicans in Disarray

Government shuts down again in ~3 weeks but somehow I'm still down to watch Gym Jordan get pantsed on national tv over and over.

Re: Bednar claims the church is growing and vibrant

Thing is, at this point in time, even if they still think or believe that, it's gotta be plausible deniability. Why? Just look at the membership #'s... 16 million of which only 8 million are active. That is .0001% of the entire population of the planet, in other words, in the last 203 years since '...

I believe Elder Bednar. He has always told the truth.

Bednar physically is like a church. He peaked about 2000. He needs to get in touch with Dorian Grey's art guy asap.

Re: DarthJ is a prophet

I'm shocked the general conferences are still like 10+ hours over two days. Shocking this hasn't been cut in half.

Re: Hurtful Language You May Not know.

The way I heard "Jew" used was always (multiple times as recently as the 2010s in rural KY) along the lines of " he really tried to Jew me up/down on the price [of an object/business deal]" clearly indicating greediness of the opposing person. Often times aimed at Amish/Mennonite farmers so a sligh...

Re: Hurtful Language You May Not know.

What? When did that happen? Not in my day. To Jew someone down was seen as being adept at doing business. Who the heck turned it into something deceptive? :shock: Are you sure you've got that right? That wasn't my own experience. Where does that come from? The way I heard "Jew" used was always (mul...

Mitt Romney not running for Senate in 2024

Perhaps Off Topic but Utah Senator Mitt Romney announced today he's not running in 2024. I suspect he won't be the last of the GOP moderates to leave during the 2024-28 Senate cycle. If you want a great read the Atlantic has a piece out (preview to a full biography) about Romney's time in the Senate...

Re: Trump, Biden, RFKjr, and Beyond

I think Biden beats Trump in 2024 by a slight margin again and in 2028 some GOP candidate beats Kamala due to political winds just changing (guessing by 2028 Trump's diet of Big Macs and legal problems will finally catch up with him and some moderate GOP governor breaks through). By 2032 the whole g...
