The Tucker Derangement Syndrome among the Fox News Republicans on here's hilarious
Tucker might actually be a Muslim. Have you ever seen him eat pork? I haven't. Not that there is anything wrong with not eating pork, but Muslims do not eat pork, and I know, not all, but some Muslims are terrorists. So I wonder if Tucker is actually a terrorist? He has been to Qatar and Dubai.
I mean, should we be worried he might blow something up?
I am just asking questions

Read the actual text of the law. Let me know if you find ANY of the following:
Any provision the mentions where it makes it a crime to be critical of Israel or, gasp, "The Jews". Show where is states that you will go to jail if you call "Netanyahu a war criminal" or are critical of "the international Jewish conspiracy"
Answer is, you can't. The pearl clutching on this issue is laughably hilarious. Lost in the stupidity is that this is actually a protection of religious freedom law.

Which decisions are more impactful to the average citizens fiscal health:
The Fed moving rates up or down by a quarter of one percent
The US government continuing, in the face of revenging 4.9 trillion, spending 6.9 trillion, eroding confidence in the dollar, sending people to gold and silver and crypto, and jacking up inflation
But if only we had cheaper money, things would get cheaper. :rotflmao:
It's almost like a bad AOC meme

If they lower interest rates, you will pay less for your house.
So when interest rates were low during COVID, housing prices went down right?
All because the mortgage prices were lower, right?

FR Bldg Reno: $2,272/ SF
Federal Reserve HQ Renovation
~402,000 sq ft
~$2.5 billion
~$6,215 /sq ft
That is the current size, before the renovations. They are adding around 110k SF to the Eccles bldg and an additional 500K SF to the East Building.
Total reno scope is around 1.1mm SF between 2 buildings.
Disclaimer for the binarily challenged: This in no way endorses Powell as a good/above average Fed Chairman/Constrcution Manager, that the renovation costs are within reason, or that I believe that interest rates should be cut

You think Trump is lying, and instead the Fed project is actually priced and above board?
We have no idea whether or that is the case. All we have are the raw numbers, and the scopes of work that have been released. I do know that the installation of a foundation several floors below an existing building that is also underneath the water table is probably a very expensive proposition. I do know that removing and replacing every window and door and replacing them with bomb resistant doors/windows is probably an expensive undertaking. I do know that replacing all air conditioning, electrical and plumbing systems in a building that is laden with asbestos, lead and whatever else is probably expensive. Is it $2.5 Billion? No way to know, but I do know this...
Trump's ballroom cost: $4,400 / SF
FR Bldg Reno: $2,272/ SF

Plus the cracked ribs in the Indiana game. Ty was a warrior out there for us, and was a lot more banged up than people realized.
Mad respect for his toughness but why was he playing? Sorry but there is toughness and then there is stupidity.
I am not saying Mack was better or worse but damn, At what point does a coach not step in and say, “son, you’re a tough son of bitch, but you’re not helping your team.”

Would love to give him a shot. Yes, I know he was Division III but his quickness and speed are undeniable.
He has a cool name too. Actually I think selecting portal names by names alone is probably the way to go.
Just imagine how bad arse we would be with:
Brock Ricker
Racin Delgatty
Liam Danitz
Who cares where they come from or if they played D1, D2, D3, or intramurals. Opponents would tremble at the names of our Players names.

This. And let’s lower rates. Oh and while we are at it, let’s bring back some quantitative easing, but we will call it something else. I mean, it’s almost like we read a book on MMT and said hold muh beer.
Sigh. I was responding to the initial question as to whether or not taxpayers are funding thee renovation. And they are not. Period. In any sense. Joe the Plumber didn’t work overtime to fund this thing.
However if we play your 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon connection here, where is your outrage for the one person who has generated more government debt than any other POTUS, sans Obama? All I hear is a bunch of crickets. As I recall, you were one of the Big, Beautiful Bill cheerleaders here, so your sudden concern over construction overspending is laughable. Only a real patsy would argue out of both sides of their mouth.
As for the renovations themselves, I couldn’t care less. I find the weak-minded pearl clutching hilarious relative to other government boondoggles. And who knows? Maybe digging underneath an existing building and renovating an old building costs a lot of money.
And I say this as someone who is not a fan of Powell. I have been a critic of his “soft-landing” bullshiite since he uttered those words. So the binary thinking here is stupid and weak. If dont agree with x, i must believe in Y. That bird dog don’t hunt, at all.

well there is the meaningful fact that $2B+ Fed project is taxpayer funds …. while the WH improvements are not taxpayer funded. Ten Bears has some severe TDS so he wont even admit what he posted was beyond low iq
Hey Mensa, the taxpayer ain’t paying for the renovations.

I share your opinion on Beaman. Losing him early in the season was a blow. Hope he's fully ready to go when the 2026 rolls around.

Turning it over on 4th down in our own territory, really messed us up. But even still we're down only 10-0 heading towards halftime.
As stupid as the call was in going for it, if Daniel Hill keep it a runs to the right it was an easy first down. The entire Indiana defense shifted to stop the handoff to Germie.

Add in the stupid attempts of running back kickoffs that got us at the 15.
I go into rage mode when I see Brooks take off with the ball. I know that he will be tackled at the 15
It especially angers me when we do it on the road, and the opposing crowd starts salivating, and we either get sacked, a holding call or a procedure penalty followed by a terrible punt.
