The top two officials at the Department of Homeland Security are serving unlawfully in their roles, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) said Friday, dealing a rebuke to President Trump’s affinity for filling senior executive roles in his administration with “acting” leaders who lack Senate confirmation.

Good for the GAO, but how many Army divisions do they have to make Trump obey the law? This is a president who’s deliberately wrecking the post office to gain a partisan advantage over Democrats. He sent troops to Portland to create chaos that would help sell his law-and-order campaign theme. He’s pulled the birther card, that they are foreigners who can’t legally be President, against Senator Barack Obama, then Senator Ted Cruz, and now Senator Kamala Harris. He had protesters near the White House gassed so he could do a photo op. He pardons his pals even if they’ve committed crimes so obvious that even Attorney General Bill Barr calls their prosecution righteous. He retweets lunatic QAnon conspiracies. He tried to get a foreign leader to open a criminal investigation of a political opponent. He has relentlessly tried to undermine the U.S. Census. And he’s done all this stuff without protest from the Republican Party.
So what are the odds that Republican Senators will try to make him obey the law now? About zero, I think.

No.
They're trying to put spin on it like they always do and pretend that this is the case.
People haven't been allowed to do anything they used to do for going on half a year now, and that includes watching sports. They should be starved for even the shittiest basketball games out there.
The MLB quickly did a course correction and stopped the BLM shit. They're not hurting nearly as badly as the NBA is now because of it.
Fucking NASCAR is beating them both, with one of the drivers allowed to put "Back the Blue" on his car.
But hey... Not my business if they don't want to learn from their mistakes and keep lying to themselves. I've got no stake in the league.

Quote:6ix, you know as little about basketball as you do about success, but in this you are no different than every Texan/Trump voter I know, except for the rich ones, who didn't get rich by letting illformed political opinions overrule facts.

From 3 years back: NBA Viewership Hits Five Year Low; How Does League Fix Problem?
www.outkick.com/nba-viewership-hits-five-year-low-league-fix-problem/
Superteams can be both good for the NBA Finals, when the largest possible audience arrives to watch the NBA product, but simultaneously bad for the rest of the season, when fans tune out because they already know who the two best teams are. In fact, in a modern communications era when we all have so many different entertainment options to consider, doesn’t it make perfect sense that most people would ignore the NBA until the NBA Finals arrive? After all, if you already know it’s going to be Warriors-Cavs in the NBA Finals, why do you care about the journey to the final?
As is, unlike every other major sport in America, we already know exactly what will happen in the NBA, so why watch until the very end? After all, how many people would watch “Game of Thrones” from start to finish if they knew exactly how the series ended?
The NBA is broken and fans are abandoning its product save for the NBA Finals themselves. So how do you fix things? I’ve got three suggestions: . . .
I think if all three of these rules were implemented we could make the NBA great again.
As is, the NBA set a five year viewership low this year and is likely to continue to decline again next season. Without talent distributed somewhat evenly across the league, fans tune out until the NBA Finals. Given how many entertainment options fans have today, the NBA is at real risk of becoming a one month season, just like college basketball already has.

Blah, blah, blah...
Keep posting bullshit. I don't have any stake in the NBA.
I used to be a superfan back in the 90's and early 2000's but couldn't give a shit less about it anymore. If they want to kill their viewership by hyper-politicizing the sport, go right ahead.
Baseball has managed just fine with 162 meaningless games per year. The NBA only has 82 meaningless games per year, and it's arguably a more popular sport than Football, which doesn't have any meaningless games.
That's a lot of lost ad revenue if they cut the NBA down to only 1 month seasons. Would be a shame for them to have to do that because they can't keep their mouths shut and just play ball.

Quote:It feels like the 1944 United States presidential election. FDR looked like he was dying and would definitively be dead shortly after. Robert Trump dropped dead this week while Donald, his older and fatter brother who won't release his medical records, could die sooner than Biden. Trump had two brothers; both died younger than Trump is now. It can't be long for Trump.

Yeah, let's not pay attention to the large numbers of democrat-leaning independent voters WHO WILL SWING THE ELECTION who don't like Biden.

We're back to Second hoping that Trump dies soon.
Reality must be hitting him too hard today.

Quote:In Texas, we've got lots of men exactly like Trump: fat dumb motherfuckers. You know what stops them? Their eating habits kill them. If I put these guys under significant legal or financial pressure and they just have strokes or heart attacks and die. It is a very satisfying way to suddenly win in a business struggle. Makes winning look easy. Same could happen to Trump. He is one fat dumb bastard of a businessman who breaks his contracts. He is going to blow himself up one day and die from a cerebral hemorrhage. It happened to FDR and Woodrow Wilson while they were President. It can happen to Trump.
