6ixStringJack: Maybe people would take you seriously if you ever once complained about it when your side always increases the budget. But you don't, and here we are. It's got to be really frustrating for you, huh? You have zero argument for any issue because you're guilty of doing everything you claim the other side is doing. Good luck with those Epstien files on top of everything else, buddy. You're fucked. Forever.  |
| second: The fiscal trajectory is not sustainable: Congressional Budget Office warns about the highest debt in US history as Trump adds $1.4 trillion to 10-year deficit [go to link] President Donald Trump has repeatedly pledged to slash the national deficit and curb debt during his second term, but a sobering assessment of the nation’s financial health by one of the federal government’s premier fiscal watchdogs suggests Trump 2.0’s policies have not only collectively pushed the federal deficit significantly higher, but put the country on an unsustainable path. |
| 6ixStringJack: Look at how insane you're getting, Ted. None of those stories matter. By next week, nobody will ever bring any of them up again. You just continue to drive yourself crazy until you snap. You're a fucking idiot. |
6ixStringJack: Democrats are being destroyed in those Epstein files, son. You have no idea what you just unleashed upon yourself, son. I think Trump wanted to save all of that and drop those bombs before election day, but I'm sure he's saving the best for last now.  |

| THG: The few remaining moderate House Republicans appear poised to break with President Donald Trump in a key vote on his signature economic policy.
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) is using several procedural maneuvers to shield Trump from legislative challenges and oversight, planning to ask the House to extend the ban on bringing up resolutions challenging Trump’s tariffs on products from dozens of U.S. trading partners through August.
However, according to Punchbowl News, key Republicans indicated they would likely vote against the measure. |

Brenda: Not really SIX. There are pee wee teams all over the country and all the kids have to is try out. The teams pay for rink time and such. Parents if they can afford it can pay for new but you can pick up hockey gear like skates and masks and other stuff if you are lucky, say at the Salvation Army thrift stores. Kids grow out of stuff or get tired of playing parents don't want the clutter they donate it. Not sure about hockey sticks parents may have to buy those. Ah, field trips to the local rinks for ice skating in elementary school. I used to do that. Hockey sticks were always around the guys would grab them and pretend to famous hockey players of the time. |
| 6ixStringJack: That makes sense, Brenda. In Canada, is Ice Hockey considered a rich kid sport? I know it is here. No school I went to or that was even near me had Hockey Teams. If you played hockey, you had rich parents that paid steep prices for all the gear and the time on the ice at rinks for every practice and match. No taxpayer dollars (at least through the schools) and no traditional means of having "Booster Clubs" since unlike more traditional sports that were in every school, these parents were already spending boatloads of cash just to put their kids in there and probably weren't very likely to be donating any more of theirs. I bet they have to sell a ton of candy bars or something. |

| Brenda: Well, they didn't. Norway is now on top. The Nordic countries tend to do better in the Winter games I think because they put such an emphasis on sports when kids are in school. The summer games feel that way for sure. I think for these Winter games it will be a Nordic country that gets the most. Findland, Norway, Sweden. |
