Great version of Dancing Queen

NewsNation is the only cable network that is truly down the middle. And when you watch Major networks…ABC, CBS, NBC you realize how far left-leaning they are.
Down the middle is not sexy for consumption. Perhaps they will have a strong election night and nexstar really wants this to pan out. Compared to fnc and msnbc no one is watching newsnation.

I hope nexstar is in this for the long run because I believe it is a positive thing to have multiple options.

Adding An NIL Fee To Ticket Prices

I can’t see the school losing a significant amount of ticket holders. This is the new reality. It will actually make fundraising a little easier I think. Instead of trying to solicit donations every month tack on a one time fee. That should give you a good amount of funds to bring talent consistently. The alternative would be going to games and the team not being competitive. That wouldn’t be enjoyable either. I’m not a fan of how NIL has turned out but I’m ok with paying a little extra to see coach Sha succeed.

Illegal voting prediction

A flawed study, extrapolating a small subsample of a survey to a large population, which the author of the study has acknowledged.


Others used the same survey data and believed the small subset was attributed to error, and the non citizen voter would have been close to 0%

When you look into studies on actual votes that were cast, they find incredibly low amounts of non-citizen voting because the risk to reward ratio is incredibly low. Non citizens would face heavy penalties for voting in a federal election if caught. Why would they risk that for a politician? We can barely get actual citizens to show and and vote.

Adding An NIL Fee To Ticket Prices

We already pay a Pirate Blue fee on our tix. They should just take a portion of that and apply it to NIL. Hopefully they don't raise the prices another 10% or they will lose Season Ticket holders.
I'd be surprised if you didn't lose Season Ticket holders by simply adding NIL to the fee, even if properly disclosed.

Tenn sports, especially football, are the big game in town there. And the South is a different universe on college sports when it comes to up here.

DEBATE LIVE THREAD.

You were the one saying way back when that only Trump could call in the National Gard... that it was not Pelosi's call...... she was responsible for the security or lack thereof that day.

Not what I said.
What I was objecting to (2 1/2 years ago now) was the idea that Trump wanted the national guard there but was blocked by Pelosi.

Bottom line for me is that even though he was not getting cooperation from Pelosi in getting National Guard help

See. That part is just not accurate.
Even if you believe that Pelosi didn't do enough, she did not have the power to block Trump.
Trump would not have needed her cooperation at all. The president has authority over the DC national guard, not the speaker. If he wanted them there, they would have been there.

knowing the risk at that point, should have called off the rally.

Knowing the risk after the capital was breached... he also should have called off the rally.
But instead he Tweets about Mike Pence not having courage. When his aids asked him to intervene to calm things down - he watched.
Probably Pelosi's fault as well.

I characterize it as "the democrat establishment" media. The media that takes whatever the democrat power broker talking points are and bases their narratives on thse talking points. There is no question that this cabal of democrat establishment media ALL use the same or very similar terminology when describing events of the day. They have very few journalists in their ranks.... they are hacks. They have no soul. Witness the last debate and the actions of the moderators..... who can call those two objective journalists?
Works both ways FOX and NEWSMAX. You have choices what to watch or even listen to on radio for your particular taste of what you want to hear or believe in.

Can one define the MSM? I would like to read a technical assessment of what MSM is.

Illegal voting prediction

I didn't see the source of the report that was done mentioned.... It's based on “A 2014 academic journal found that 6.4% of noncitizens voted in 2008" ..... But....who is OK with any illegals voting?
We need voter registration rules that help to protect the integrity of our elections.

DEBATE LIVE THREAD.

Good lord.

Trump told people to come. When they breached the capital, he tweeted about Mike Pence not having courage. When his aides were asking him to do something to calm things down, he did nothing.

You just keep making excuses for that.
That's rich coming from someone who is a master at making excuses.....aka spin master.

You were the one saying way back when that only Trump could call in the National Gard... that it was not Pelosi's call...... she was responsible for the security or lack thereof that day.

Bottom line for me is that even though he was not getting cooperation from Pelosi in getting National Guard help, Trump, knowing the risk at that point, should have called off the rally. But responsible for an insurrection?........ not even close, given all of the circumstances of that day.
