What do they put for their Illinois home address?
Heaven only knows. It could be any address in the state that has a building on the property. They probably fill out the address part like the Dems here in Georgia have been filling out voter registration forms for "the homeless".

Back up a little bit and settle down. You went too far. You're supposed to be watching The Wizard of Oz while that album is playing, not some documentary on the Apollo Program. (It happens to the best of us at times though, I suppose.)

The only constituency these senators serve is their bank account. Do an actual investigation on the source of their income/wealth and I'm pretty certain that no one here would really be surprised.

When you are in the state of Georgia and see a vehicle full of Hispanics on a construction site with Illinois tags, you can rest assured that no one riding in that vehicle is legally here. Illinois has long been the place illegals would go to purchase a car, tag it, and get a US driver license. I'm sure there are other states that afford this end-around US immigration law as well, but I have only become very closely familiar with it as it relates to Illinois since that seems to be the primary source for licensed illegals here in Georgia.

No need to revoke the citizenship of anyone from Somalia who became a naturalized US citizen. You just throw the book at them if they're involved in fraud and then lock their asses up. If it goes beyond fraud to trying to establish a Somali state within the borders of the United States, then treason and/or insurrection charges apply since they have become US citizens. That opens the door to firing squads, nooses, or Ol' Sparky.

Finland has always been bad-arse. Check out little 5-foot-three Simo Häyhä during the war with Russia just prior to WWII. Apparently he suffered "little man syndrome" and really took it out on the Russkiys.

If anything we, the USA, should learn from many of them. All you are trying to do with your post is make more Americans skeptical about Europe.
Apparently you didn't learn a single thing in history classes. Even in first grade we learned that the very basis for the foundation of the United States was to break away from Europe and the political systems in place there. Washington, in his Farewell Address, warned the new country to avoid entanglements in the affairs of Europe because it would come to no good end and prove an unbearable expense. Obviously, we haven't heeded his words of wisdom. (Probably because so many now want to redefine him as a racist slave owner.)
If you love European ways so much, feel free to emigrate from the US to a new home in one of those lovely European utopias. It would be racist of them to deny your presence there since immigration has now become the primary unalienable international right.

You should ask Miami since they already have two losses to Louisville and to SMU.
If we're going to expand the playoffs even further than they already are, then why not go ahead and expand it to 128 teams? Play a six game season and then begin the playoffs. It'd only take seven wins in a 128 team field to crown the champion.
Seriously. Getting to the college championship game is starting to feel like an NHL season that seemingly never ends.

How about a FOUR team playoff? You know, the kind of playoff that makes sense and ensures the season actually means something.

I would have preferred that y'all had won last night, but it apparently wasn't in the cards. Y'all had a great run this year. It was exceptional! The win over Georgia was icing on the cake too.
It was kinda refreshing to see Ole miss make a deep run in the playoffs. I would MUCH prefer to see Ole Miss win it all than Indiana or Miami. So, now thanks to your loss, I will be forced to pull for Oregon. A pox on you and the Grove for this dilemma!

I noticed the sign at the bottom stating that the area is under 24 hour video surveillance. Wonder if they could provide some video evidence of some students that maybe would have been recorded on that surveillance camera when they arrived or departed.

All those are major reasons we departed Gwinnett County (GA) for better climes in west Georgia within rock-throwin' distance of the Alabama state line.
re: Corn farmers as welfare queens
Posted by Swamp Angel on 1/9/26 at 12:27 pm to weagle1999
My grandfather raised Bright and Burly tobacco in West Virginia from the 1930s through the 1990s. His crop was generally the one that set the prices at market each autumn. Because it was federally subsidized, he was paid so much by Uncle Sam because he was federally limited to how many acres of tobacco he could produce each year. He was not particularly fond of receiving a check from the government for crops he didn't grow since he fully realized that he could have made significantly more if he had been allowed to farm whatever acreage of tobacco the market would support.
Corn is much the same way. About 40-45% of corn grown in the US goes to animal feed and another 40-45% goes to mandated biofuels. (The mandate for ethanol in fuel is a huge "subsidy" corn farmers receive from Uncle Sam.) Gasoline mixed with ethanol is less efficient and produces more pollutants than pure petroleum products. It also costs more to produce than ethanol-free gas despite the difference at the pump may lead one to believe.
Government regulations have been hamstringing the wealth producers in this country for longer than pretty much any of us who are alive can remember.

1861 – The first shots of the American Civil War are fired
You must know something I don't. I was always pretty certain the first shots were fired on April 12th at Ft. Sumter.
ETA: Never mind, I learned something today-
"On January 9, 1861, Citadel cadets, fighting under a new flag, fired the first shot of the War Between the States on the Star of the West, a ship attempting to resupply the Union garrison at Fort Sumter."
Thank you for improving my education by making me search for the missing things I was unaware of.
re: If given the chance, would you take Miami in the SEC?
Posted by Swamp Angel on 1/9/26 at 11:38 am to PSS101
No. Not even if we kicked out Mizzou. If the SEC is to pick up another Florida school it should be FSU. At least they're actually southern. But before we add anyone else to the roll we need to dismiss a few. It's no longer the SEC at this point.

While this looks to be a good thing to me, are we certain that the video footage is of a current event in Iran? For some reason, a lot of old footage has been used all over the place and is passed off as current. MSM is the primary culprit, but I'm not so sure we can believe anything presented via a camera any longer. AI and dubious reporting have all but ruined the credibility of anything you don't actually witness with your own two eyes.
Anyway, I'm still hopeful the people of Iran can throw out Khameini and all his ilk.
