Have you seen all the new stuff out at the SHOT show? Holy crap. The new Mark 7 reloaders! About 180 new guns between rifles, pistols and shotguns.A bizzilion $$ in new scopes.

and its the fourth quarter!

Lippy is a mod now? Why wasn't I told?

Already underway:Poland signs deal to buy 2nd batch of Abrams tanks 366 all together. The Abrams tanks in storage are the older M1 with the 105 gun. They don't have the independent commanders thermal and the digital sighting. They can be upgraded however.

Yes but now the trumpocrites have control authority over the speaker. So the overall function of the house is different. Wait till all the committees start their investigations. Wait till budget and debt ceiling kingmakers start their nonsense.

Well not so much but the US is dragging its feet: Germany will only send battle tanks to Ukraine if the US does the same, multiple reports suggest. "Reports suggest that Mr Scholz will only give the green light to the Leopards if the US President Joe Biden agrees to supply American Abrams tanks. However, the Pentagon's top security adviser, Colin Kahl, said late on Thursday that the US wasn't prepared to meet Kyiv's demands for the tanks." The US "Currently the M1 Abrams main battle tank is no longer in operational service with the US military and a number of these tanks were upgraded to the M1A2 standard. US Army has over 2 300 of these tanks in reserve storage" So 2300 of the old M1 tanks in storage but Biden is dragging his feet on approving any for shipment to Ukraine. "1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances "To solidify security commitments to Ukraine, the United States, Russia, and the United Kingdom signed the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances on December 5, 1994. A political agreement in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Accords, the memorandum included security assurances against the threat or use of force against Ukraine’s territory or political independence" So after Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons based upon US treaty commitments. The US welshed on its treaty. Sold it into to Russian slavery. "You must be so proud of your Country, your political your honor and your military." That would be debate, set and match.

In Israel the SC ordered" that a senior member of premier Benjamin Netanyahu's newly formed government cannot serve as minister due to a recent tax evasion conviction." I can see it now. The USSC orders that MTG be put in as VP! Ok, ok MTG put in charge of the Finance committee. "The decision was slammed by Prime Minister Netanyahu's coalition, which vowed to push ahead with controversial measures that would weaken the Supreme Court and its power to strike down legislation."

"Sentence commuted February 18, 2020 by President Donald Trump" I was wrong about trump. He is bipartisan. I was always under the assumption that Rod was just a run of the mill criminal. But not batshit crazy like MTG.

Or: George Santos accused of swindling disabled veteran and letting his dog die: reportSantos denied that he took $3,000 he raised for the dog's cancer surgery despite text message evidence Because there was another republican who cheated and stole from charities.So Santos was rewarded House Republican leadership placed Representative George Santos on two committees, Time to bring banana back into the discussion.

Japanese corporate leaders and politicians who killed themselves did so out of shame. The embarrassment caused to themselves and their families. Be it corrupt democrats in Illinois over decades, or Santos. Corruption is akin to a badge of honor in America. At least when it helps the tribe. When it's for personal gain and not a tribe. It's move on as they all do it. Both parties had the opportunity to drain the swamp and none did so..

Joe earlier made reference to American gun culture. In America children are raised from a young age how to handle loaded guns. Gun safety and how to get loaded guns passed school security. When they are out playing they keep guns handy in case they are needed for self defense. Yeah its a cultural thing.

Duh! No wonder he is the poster child for republicans and the Christian right.

Failings? Failings? What failings? A retired Canadian general told our national broadcaster today. That Canada currently has 20 operational Leopard 2 tanks out of a force of 100. Twenty! That powerful combat force can't be underestimated. Regardless of global warming. Keep those bananas in the US.

Face it. Sandy Hook, Las Vegas 2017 and all they years since. Yes you're right and its never going to change.

Well the house republicans have promised to investigate Hunter Biden's laptop, income, what his dog does when Hunter is away, etc. All of FOX America is dying to know these details. Everything important for how the tail wags the dog.

I thought that you were shitting me like you occasionally are apt to do. But no! That is their address. Once again Brent illustrates the power that his MBA has brought to his analytical reasoning. For what its worth Celebrity Net Worth has Hunter Biden's net worth pegged at $1 million. Or about 3/4s of what one of Joe's Caravans is worth.

Hannity and Carlson said so in their evening sermons at the church of MurDock. Every evening Brent, the Missus and the younguns gather at the big screen for the scripture. It's heresy to ask for further proof.

You're very kind. Everybody here knows why.

For gun owners anything. For those wanting to control guns: THE LAW.

The ideals of defining political debate. End up in the dustbin when tribalism, ignorance, bad faith and a lack of reason, infect the discussion.

I had to clean my keyboard of coffee because of that. Do you really think there is room for any liberal thinking in Brent's head. When its overfilled with FOX dogma?

None of the reporting on the documents from President Biden were in unlocked locations. They were not where they belonged however. Agree. And if there is violations both trump and Biden should face a judge. Its irresponsible for any politician to get a walk on these issues.

The Trump Organization must pay $1.6 million for giving executive off-the-books benefits and pay. Fined the maximum allowed by statute. An equivalent of a felony conviction for trump's company. Unfortunately its more of man bites dog. trump has participated and directed through his companies scams all his life. After he's gone there is no reason not to believe that his descendants won't be doing the same. Usually with impunity.

Its just too bad that every time he's proven to be wrong. That a months silence doesn't follow. He would be gone 700-800 months a year!

So you're the one! I'd heard that pollsters had found a democrat in Illinois who still believed. Confidence in Supreme Court is at lowest level in 50-year recorded history, Gallup poll finds "In the recent poll, public confidence dropped most significantly in the past year among Democrats and independents. Confidence dropped by 17 points to 13 percent among Democrats"
