This is a bad take. Taking more money from the wealthy and giving it to the government isn’t going to make jobs pay more, make education cheaper, or make houses more affordable.

It’s also worth mentioning the song that they’re kneeling during. I know people rarely get past the first verse, but later on, there’s some, let’s say, interesting stuff.

Drew summed this up perfectly in the Jamboroo today.

Normally I’m okay with things that bring the NFL a step closer to self imploding, but...yeah, this is a terrifying amount of cult-of-personality worship going on.

This isn’t nuts, it’s terrifying. These people are sheep, devoted to the ravings of a madman and incapable of contradictory thought. Holy fucking shit are we fucked.

Goodell’s wife being an ex fox news anchor is the least surprising thing I heard today and I just finished reading an article on a trump aide’s willingness to commit perjury

Taxes being raised on income below $418K is not giving up everything you worked so hard (debatable) for.

What’s super fucked is the fact that lots of people idolize the 50's and 60's. One of the defining features of the 5o’s and 60's? Sweet, sweet gubmint cash. Schools were super well funded. Christ, you could get driver’s ed in your average high school up until practically the 80's. That’s like $400-500 right there. You…

Correct re: brackets. You can have two brackets or 200 brackets. Doesn’t matter since it’s just a matter of looking up your income and finding it on the chart. So it takes six seconds longer to find your bracket among the 199 others. It makes no difference in “simplifying” the tax code. Wanna simplify? Every dollar…

Klinsmann isn’t a good manager. He was right about identifying the problems facing USA soccer, but he’s far from the right person to fix them. Give him Gulati’s job, but save the Manager job for someone who understands tactics.

Lalas is a bloviating gas-bag in love with his own voice. Nothing he says has any value; he’s just throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. He was right to call out this team, but then also said they could win the World Cup, because... I don’t actually know why he would say that, he just did.

The goalkeeper situation is especially egregious because we have no shortage of younger keepers who are better than Howard, Guzan and Rimando are at this stage in their careers. They need to fucking go.

How many more years are we going to pretend Jozy isn’t an immobile piece of shit?

Maybe if it had been ONLY Trinidad.

Seriously.

Or maybe we are out of the WC because we lost to Trinidad & Tobego.

Any player not named Christian Pulisic and over the age of 30 should be barred from playing on the team again and arena should be fired by tomorrow morning.

Hopefully disappear along with the brains that caused this problem. We need to nuke this team and start from scratch, only keeping Pulisic.

Well it’s not surprising that the US couldn’t overcome the raucous crowd of hundreds that came out to support Trinidad.

The USMNT is an example of something that is actually disrespectful to the troops.
