If Gaza people are to be free they need to be rid of Hamas. As long as Hamas is in power the people of Gaza will continue to suffer, simple as put.

Only Enzo saw that. This is why I like Enzo. Yes we drop a bit but he has a lot that we can build for next season. I sure do hope we finish top 4 so he can have more freedom this summer with shaping the squad.

Veterans fired from federal jobs say they feel betrayed, including some who voted for Trump https://apnews.com/article/trump-federal-workers-veterans-fired-1032360fdc6b2fb33d88edaf8f54d5ca Oh oh, Trump messing with the wrong people. You can mess with Mexico, Canada, Panama but messing with veterans is not good. He can get killed by them. Out of all the stuff this is his downfall, if he loses support from the veterans.

But that is all because of Trump pressure. This is what he wanted. This would benefit American company.

They already took it back via money. Since in Panama it's a land where bribery is big, they sold themselves to Chinese's and now to the USA back.

Haters gonna hate. Meanwhile I bought some TSLA shares here. Good spot to buy some, as well the regular folk on the streets are a contrary indicator. When they start talking like that more frequently the bottom is close. If you can buy some for you here because when the Ukraine war finish this should get a nice move higher.

I still want Enzo to continue and I hope we finish in top 4 so that will bring more money for us to improve in the summer.

I would still give them the benefit of doubt. I don't see Musk as being corrupt. He is a geek that Trump is tapping to help with tech side. As he said here:

If the board sack Maresca I will lose all faith as it will show they have no clue what they are doing. They need to put their money where their mouth is. We sacked Poch to get him because he is the coach for the project. And at at time when things go bad you can't abandon ship as there will never be any continuity.

Appearing on television alongside the president in the Oval Office on Tuesday, a defiant Musk dismissed concerns over any conflicts of interest, insisting he had little to do with contracts brokered by the companies where he serves as chief executive. “You have to look at the individual contract,” Musk told reporters. “First of all, I’m not filing the contract. It’s people at SpaceX…and I like to say if you see any contract where it was awarded to SpaceX and it wasn’t by far the best value for the taxpayer, let me know—because every one of them was.” On Thursday, the State Department backed away from plans to spend $400 million on armored Tesla vehicles, after the proposal was revealed on social media and reported by the New York Times. The procurement forecast did not specify which Tesla model would be purchased, but the Times speculated the stainless-steel Cybertruck “would be the most suitable vehicle,” despite questions about its safety. All seven of Musk’s companies—which include X (formerly Twitter), xAI (a rival to OpenAI), Neuralink (a brain implant startup), Starlink (satellite internet service) and the Boring Company (a tunnel drilling firm), in addition to Tesla and SpaceX—have netted a combined $20 billion in US government contracts and subsidies, according to the Financial Times. “Elon Musk is a walking conflict of interest,” Craig Holman, the government affairs lobbyist at the consumer watchdog Public Citizen, told me by phone on Thursday. “Over and over again, he’s just involved in governmental actions that directly and substantially impact his own financial wellbeing.” The federal code known as 18 USC 208 “prohibits an executive branch employee from participating personally and substantially in a particular Government matter that will affect his own financial interests, as well as the financial interests of certain individuals with whom he has ties outside the Government,” according to the US Office of Government Ethics. In theory, that “should” apply to Musk, Holman said. But Trump can easily issue a waiver exempting Musk from complying with the rules as a so-called special government employee. Lawmakers have considered tightening federal ethics rules on special government employees in the past, but those were “not serious efforts,” Holman said. “We haven’t seen this type of abuse until now,” he said. There is nothing really, just hating. The guys is doing a good job with finding fraud waste and abuse. He explain all in the video. That article is just a cheap shot taken at his company doing good.

Yup that is the right way. I think the winter window they didn't address much the team because it can be hard. Just wing it with what we have and in the summer we can get some improvement especially with some manager stability. Because I always said we fire this guy and new guy wants to try his guy. We waste so much time like that. With Maresca now one year we can improve this summer.
-
Guy is smart. I still think we should continue with him next season despite how we finish this season. First season was always going to be up and down. But I seen enough from him that I want him one more season. Next season we should see some increase improvement. Especially with a summer transfer window where we can get address better the squad. That being said people should calm down this season and be more strict next one.
-
Jorgensen now pip the gk spot? About time, I knew Maresca was not dumb, he was just talking good so he does not bash his gk. I think that is good.
-
Why would that being looked at? They are not terrorist. Money going to terrorist organization is what will be stop. But not amuse at your bias, your hate for Israel always get a punt in every post you make.

Well you will have some Republicans fight back which is what we are seeing because of the touching of government employees... Which to be fair I don't think it's much Republicans but both democrats and Republicans when you touch government employees. So will see a lot of fighting to be taking place. Cutting right out as y say it's crazy. That is disturbing the works of many. What they should just focus is just audit for potential corruption. But yes they are going a bit too far. However the good thing is we have judges and courts that will fight back to give some balance.

Honestly, that’s plenty, although the complaint goes into detail on why exactly USAID can’t be dismantled by the executive branch, as well as the many harms the agency’s shuttering will cause, both to the plaintiffs, those receiving congressionally authorized aid, and to the Rule Of Goddamned Law In These United States. Your Tax Dollars Not At Work The complaint emphasizes that the attempt to eradicate USAID is already having “life-threatening consequences” (we’ve removed footnote numbers in the quote below; see complaint for links): Temporarily happy ending: In that final example, the workers continued caring for the babies, and hope they won’t face reprisals. They only had a few days of supplies left as of last Friday, however, and we know how things have deteriorated since then. Even the State Department’s alleged “waivers” to the funding freeze, which on paper were supposed to allow “life-saving humanitarian assistance” and the continuation of HIV care and treatment, did no good. As ProPublica reports, the waivers didn’t actually restore funding and the overseas partner organizations had no way to apply for it. All the USAID workers who could have processed the requests were laid off. Aid Workers Ordered To Stop Saving Lives So They Can Come Home And Be Fired Also this week, virtually all of USAID’s employees abroad were ordered to drop their work, pack up their families, and move back to the USA by midnight tonight so they can officially be shitcanned, thank you for your service. Overseas contractors were fired without warning and locked out of computer systems, leaving some who work in violent regions unable to ask for help getting the hell out. Just as well, though, since nobody was left at USAID offices in Washington to take their calls. One contracted staffer in a dicey situation somewhere in the Middle East told the AP that even the emergency “panic button” app was wiped off their smartphone. We’re sure the Trump team will come looking for the contractor and their family eventually, if only to prosecute the staffer for violating a ban on speaking to the media. Some 6,000 of the agency’s 10,000 employees (before today’s decapitations — metaphorically, one hopes — of the workforce) are stationed overseas, so it is of course turning into a logistical clusterfuck. Some staff will have up to 90 days to GTFO, but others had just days to return to the US. Several US embassies have held town-hall style meetings to pass on any information they have, where, as one employee said, “Everyone was in tears, from leadership all the way down to janitors of our building. […] The community is gutted.” Why yes, they had it coming, because Elon Musk really really hates USAID for investigating his Starlink satellite company, and maybe also for helping to dismantle apartheid, but most of all for helping people who insist on being poor, brown, and of no use at all in making Musk money. Musk tweeted in delight Monday that he a “spent the weekend feeding USAID into the wood chipper,” and his fans only wished they could have thrown some aid workers, vipers, and globalists into a literal wood chipper too. Some Caught A Freight, Some Caught A Plane The AP reports on the chaos resulting from the recall order, which of course will cost the government tens of millions of dollars in travel costs, and is probably illegal to boot, hence the lawsuit from the foreign service and federal employee unions. That could make for an exciting scene in a movie in a few years, like the embassy evacuation in The Killing Fields, as the embassy staff and journalists tried to forge a fake US passport for Cambodian journalist Dith Pran while the Khmer Rouge ran firing AK-47s through the streets of Phnom Penh. You could win an Oscar, even. But when it’s happening, it’s not art yet, it’s just horror, especially for the people who can’t get on the helicopters and are told to go home without AIDS treatment or left to wonder if they’ll have anything to feed their kids. (Sigh. We wish Spalding Gray were still alive, too.) 10,000 Workers Into The Wood Chipper According to insiders at the agency and internal emails obtained by Wired, Musk and his young racist Skibidi Totalitarians have inflicted some real American Carnage at USAID, already “taking a team of over 10,000 down to just under 300.” Some US workers still overseas haven’t yet even gotten any official word of what’s going on from the agency. One told Wired, “The only official communication I’ve received is from the local embassy State Department facilities people, asking if or when we were moving out so they could renovate our houses.” Hey buddy, don’t forget to dispose of your pets, too. Oh Yeah, The American Farmers. Can’t Forget About the American Farmers. On top of leaving people in poor countries hungry, dying, and without resources to survive the effects of climate change (another gift “From The American People,” as the aid shipments are always marked), the sudden disruption of foreign assistance is taking a toll on American farmers who sell crops to USAID (Washington Post gift link) to distribute around the world. The losses could total in the billions of dollars, depending on when — or whether — aid is resumed. American farms supply about 41 percent of the agency’s food aid, to the tune of $2.1 billion in 2020, according to the Congressional Research Service. The current chaos has frozen more than $340 million in aid shipments of rice, wheat, soybeans, and other commodities. In addition, researchers funded by USAID have already been furloughed, but that’s OK because MAGA Chuds think science is pointless and wasteful anyway, and if people in poor countries want better crop yields they should fund their own labs. To prove that USAID is worthless, the White House pointed and shrieked at USAID grants it said funded gender-affirming care and DEI in other countries, so shut up, nothing good for the American People comes from all that wokeness, and President Trump has a huge mandate, don’t forget that lie, too. In addition to the farm harm and the thousands of USAID staff being fired (illegally, remember that lawsuit), thousands more jobs in the private and nonprofit sectors are also at risk as contracts are cancelled and corporate partners see projects go away. Again, this will have no effect on anyone that matters because you seem to keep forgetting that USAID is full of Marxists who hate America, making all the other businesses working with the agency Marxists too, the end. Aren’t we all happy and free now? If you aren’t happy and free, you hate America. That court order blocking this shit can’t get here soon enough. Update: And Lo, a court order has arrived, putting at least some of the fuckery on hold. Post a lot of cursing in this article I'm not going to be reading much. That is not professional. And when your like that your view will be bias and won't be neutral in your reporting. Anyhow thought this was funny

I will say that the whole relocation of Palestinians sounds similar to what was done to Israel by previous empire in the past, the Babylonians and Roman empire. So not sure if that is good or bad. And the whole relocation of prisoners to El Salvador prison sounds weird as well. I don't know if the Soviet Union used to do that by sending prisoners to neighbor countries... So not sure if that is good or bad, time will tell what comes of all of this.

It's sad about Mudryk because I think he could have the same impact in Serie A. All our rejects can do good in Italy. But not good enough for this league, so not bother.

Well yes, I would say one of them is better to leave. Either Jews or the Palestine. Because both of them side by side will never work. Right now you stop the war, but like Trump said 20 years from now and on the same will happen. Just move these two group away if possible. If you can Israel...which at this moment they have the upper hand, so the Palestine should accept and move. Like the movie Kingdom of Heaven with Orlando Bloom that gave up Jerusalem so that his people can survive and not be slaughtered.
