It's still boggles my mind that people are trying to use these betting markets as some type of predictive data point.

What do you mean? Gamblers are notoriously accurate predictors of future events, they always win

I'm so sick of the trans ****, who cares man?

 

[jpzx]

osh kosh bosh I disagree with what a comedian does, when he’s stumping for a president.

It’s maybe in his best interest as a comedian to offend everybody equally when you are a comedian at a show, or when you and I go to a comedy show, but not when you’re a comedian as one of the openers for a presidential candidate.

That’s hideous. That’s different. And you acting like you can apply the “comedians offend everybody” thing to it is micro bud.

Maybe I was just numb to it and I underestimated just how offended people would get by the "garbage" comments. It seems like it really struck a nerve with a lot of Puerto Ricans and normies.

It's interesting because Trump and his surrogates have been saying outrageous stuff at rallies for years now but this one seems to have stuck. Trump calls people stupid, lazy, low IQ all the time. This is nothing new.

Just funny to me that some of these Puerto Ricans are totally fine with Trump trashing other groups (Mexicans, Haitians, Muslims, etc) but get in their feelings when they are the target.

"You can be racist towards others, but I draw the line at being racist towards my ethnicity."

"You can be racist towards others, but I draw the line at being racist towards my ethnicity."

This is what annoys me the most about some of these people. The last several years wasn't enough to make you decide who to vote for, but suddenly the bad things get said about your people and you understand. It's wild.

 

[ShoeGod1423]

Somebody needs to collect all the pics together of all the dumb **** they've all worn. Just off the top of my head.. diapers, trash bags and big pieces of bandage on their ears but yah totally not a cult

 

[yobyellav]

All these are ******* crazy. That one about Cheney is something else.

Man golfs as much as anyone on the pga tour.

Useful idiots

Instead of realizing the obvious, that they’re either up next or on the list always kills me

all they got is pointing fingers.. zero clue why anyone would be believe that would stop

They tune out. They just don't want to pay attention. It makes it easier for them to pretend that Trump's words are always taken out of context.

That's why I don't feel sorry for them when they experience the negative consequences of policies supported and passed by Trump.

Jury convicts former Kentucky officer of using excessive force on Breonna Taylor during deadly raid

A federal jury has convicted a former Kentucky detective of using excessive force on Breonna Taylor the night she was shot to death by police officers in 2020.

apnews.com

"LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A federal jury on Friday convicted a former Kentucky police detective of using excessive force on Breonna Taylor during a botched 2020 drug raid that left her dead.

The 12-member jury returned the late-night verdict after clearing Brett Hankison earlier in the evening on a charge that he used excessive force on Taylor’s neighbors.

It’s the first conviction of a Louisville police officer who was involved in the deadly raid.

Some members of the jury were in tears as the verdict was read around 9:30 p.m. Friday. They had earlier indicated to the judge in two separate messages that they were deadlocked on the charge of using excessive force Taylor but chose to continue deliberating. The six man, six woman jury deliberated for more than 20 hours over three days.

Hankison fired 10 shots into Taylor’s glass door and windows during the raid, but didn’t hit anyone. Some shots flew into a next-door neighbor’s adjoining apartment."


---

"The conviction against Hankison carries a maximum sentence of life in prison."

 

[Public Enemy]

I got excited when I saw that article and saw the maximum sentence. But when I read that he didn't hit anyone with his shooting, well you know he's not going to do any significant time. Hell, Amber Guyger only got 10 years.

At least she got denied Parole a couple weeks ago and now has to wait til October 2026 to try again

if you think some gambling whales are big Trump fans and are skewing the result,
you should take the other side of the bet.

Tfw you put your life savings on a coin flip.

Ayyyyy
