Re: *** Official 2024 QB Micah Alejado Thread ***

As I watched Micah in the New Mexico game, he tends to float in the pocket really well. If I were the OC or HC, I would start to design blocking schemes to try to open up passing lanes for Micah next year. He made it look so effortless, it was like the realization of a decades long dream. The guy ...

Re: *** Official 2024 QB Micah Alejado Thread ***

After watching the NM game, Micah has the ability to resurrect Hawaii football and athletics to greatness. I know its only one game but I saw flashes of brilliance and have not been this excited for Hawaii football since the Colt years. Stay home Micah. You will do the filipino and Hawaii community ...

Re: The Politics Thread

I think that the US just doesn't have enough of Angela Duckworth's "Grit." There's no leadership in the US to uplift society to be more competitive in the world market. I read in the news this morning that Trump is planning to eliminate birthright status. It's just another way of protecting the ...

Re: The Politics Thread

It's confirmed, we are a plutocracy, government is for sale, a banana republic with legalized plunder from the billionaire class. https://www.ft.com/content/5f962d83-01d8-4a2d-9d36-a1bfed400c00 Elon Musk donated more than $250mn to Donald Trump’s election campaign, including at least $75mn in the f ...

Re: The Politics Thread

My last attempt to shed light on the corrupt, malfeasant, and sociopathic republican party involves an instrument that has been in the news for only a decade. Before I say anything more, anyone want to take a guess? A hint is to look at Trump's cabinet picks, a dead giveaway. And as for greed ...

Re: The Politics Thread

The second way to shake down the nation is by deregulating the financial sector. Deregulate financial services. There's the small stuff, like removing interest rate collars on payday loans, reducing required equity stakes in purchasing financial assets on margin, reducing interest rates to inflate ...

Re: The Politics Thread

Building on the Great Steal thread. We can get down to specifics. Count the ways to shake down the country. First, nothing like starting a war to pad that bank account. The Iraq War was fought on the premise that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, which turned out to be false. An estimated 138B ...

Re: The Politics Thread

I think that Biden pardoned his son because his conviction or innocence has nothing to do with politics. Hunter wasn't running for office but Republicans tried so hard to try to tie Joe to Hunter. They wanted to impeach Joe Biden in order to get an inquiry going on whether he did anything illegal ...

Re: Are you planning to leave Hawaii?

My cousin's ex and her husband are moving to Dallas within the year. They are ready to retire, raised a son who is on his own, and own a home on Haw'n homestead land. They are tired of not having disposable income in Hawaii and the freedom to do activities that having money permits. They can buy a ...

Re: The Politics Thread

After some thinking, I think Joe probably did not have much choice in pardoning his son. If it was your son charged with manini stuff, wouldn't you? What probably pushed him to do it was Trump's selection of people to run the DOJ and FBI, his interview with Trump, Trump's character, and Trump's very ...

Re: The Politics Thread

Kash Patel for FBI Director? LOL. Politically inspired prosecutions here we come. Turning the worlds elite law enforcement agency into a d**n farce. With Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel I guess we can count out any of our allies sharing intelligence or law enforcement intel. Sad. Patel has already said ...

Re: Are you planning to leave Hawaii?

I'm going the other way, after looking at Portland/Vancouver WA and Hawaii, its better to move home after 29 years on the mainland. The wife and I are getting up in age and all the family is there. Why not Portland? It's cold five months of the year there and coldest area the Mrs and I have lived is ...

Re: The Politics Thread

Hopefully we will survive the orange stained jerk well enough to create regulations to prevent another such occurrence I sure hope so but Trump is a malignant narcissist, how dare "they" bring charges against him. (DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?) While he hasn't spoken it, he believes this win is his ...

Re: The Politics Thread

What Trump wants you to believe: - The election is rigged... unless I win. - The news is fake... unless it's flattering. - Everything's a hoax... unless I tweet it. - I will protect women... whether they like it or not. - I'm rich... but I try to sell you something new everyday. - I speak for the ...

Re: The Politics Thread

And there it is, the Special Counsel ends the investigation and drops all charges in the Jan 6 insurrection and confidential documents cases. I am embarassed for this country. First we fail a test of the nation's ethics and moral's with this election and now we fail to see a criminal held ...
