I think that Trump renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America is pointless and stupid.
Wanna know what else I think is dumb?
The fact left-wingers are triggered about this after they spent the last decade plus renaming sports teams, public schools and universities, streets and highways, food and condiment brands, and redefining half the dictionary altogether.
Here’s a list of some in case you forgot:
• Washington Redskins ➡️ Commanders
• Cleveland Indians ➡️ Guardians
• Stanford Indians ➡️ Cardinals
• Loudoun County Raiders ➡️ Captains
• Edmonton Eskimos ➡️ Elks
• Columbus Day ➡️ Indigenous Peoples’ Day
• Lee–Jackson Day ➡️ eliminated
• Robert E. Lee High School ➡️ John Lewis High
• Jefferson Davis Highway ➡️ Richmond Highway
• Mount McKinley ➡️ Denali
• Fort Bragg ➡️ Fort Liberty
• Fort Hood ➡️ Fort Cavazos
• Boy Scouts of America ➡️ Scouting America
• Aunt Jemima ➡️ Pearl Milling Company
• Uncle Ben’s Rice ➡️ Ben’s Original
• Eskimo Pie ice cream bars ➡️ Edy’s Pie
• Land O’Lakes ➡️ removed the Indian, but kept the land
• Illegal alien ➡️ undocumented worker
• Hispanic ➡️ Latinx (a term Hispanics did not want and do not use)
• Mother ➡️ birthing person
• Anchor baby ➡️ child of noncitizens
• black ➡️ Black
• Breastfeeding ➡️ chest feeding
• Inmate / prisoner / convict / felon ➡️ justice-involved person
• Ex-con / ex-felon ➡️ returning citizen
• “Gender” as a biological fact interchangeable with “sex” to being a social construct
• Fat ➡️ plus-sized
• Master bedroom ➡️ primary bedroom
• Manhole ➡️ utility hole
And so on and so on. . .
BREAKING: The automated ball-strike system has been approved for use in all college baseball divisions next season.
The Division I Baseball Oversight Committee and the Division II and Division III Playing Rules Oversight Panel voted to give teams the option, when available, of implementing a system to challenge called balls and strikes in regular-season and postseason games.
This will be an experimental rule in all divisions for the 2027 season.
While Obama, Hillary, and Panetta were at Andrews AFB on September 14, 2012 putting on the dignified transfer show for our brothers…
The Annex team and DS team was still in Germany. We got left there on purpose so we couldn’t be at that ceremony.
When we landed at Ramstein, the USO was waiting on the tarmac. They knew we left everything behind in Benghazi, so they had clothes, shoes, socks, and toiletries set up for us.
The Tripoli Embassy people who had all their luggage and plenty of time to pack went through the line first. As we sat there just watching, they took every last damn thing. Socks, Underwear, Pants, Toothpaste, Toothbrushes, Mouthwash, all of it. Looked like flies hoarding on a fresh pile of shit. They couldn’t get to the stuff fast enough. Nothing left for the guys who still had blood on their boots.
As the whole team from Benghazi just sat there looking at these flies, the @The_USO team came up, talked to us, and asked if we were the guys from Benghazi. They left and came back with a couple hundred bucks each on a card so we could go buy clothes and toiletries the next morning, thank GOD!
We got debriefed again in Germany and asked if we wanted to talk to the FBI. We looked at each other this was a terrorist attack. The military should be handling it, not treating it like some criminal case.
We learned about the ceremony and had to watch that whole thing from Germany. Then once their ceremony was over, they came to us and said, “You can go home now… but you got to find and buy your own plane ticket back.”
We watched the whole “it was a video protest that turned into a riot” lie from Germany as well and knew every word of it was bullshit.
That’s what we were doing while they put on the show.
Never forget. Never stop telling the truth.

John Lennon wrote a beautiful song about socialism.
“Imagine no possessions” he told us.
He also:
– helped write his band’s anti-tax anthem, Taxman
– incorporated his IP holdings
– moved to a lower-tax country
– fiercely protected his royalties
- drove two Rolls Royce’s and had multiple luxury homes.
– made sure even the royalty cheques for Imagine were kept safe for his estate so his family would remain wealthy in perpetuity.
If he believed it, he’d have lived it. The trouble with socialism is that even the people who love the idea won’t run the experiment on themselves.
John Lennon writing Imagine while owning two Rolls Royce Phantoms and later having a law suit to protect his royalties tells you all you need to know about socialism in practice.
It doesn’t work outside of the imagination.
When you're talking about the greatest American track and field athletes, the conversation hasn’t even gotten serious until someone brings up Lamar Latrell.
“That was honestly one of the coolest moments of my career,” said Llinas. “Because this is one of the coolest places to play in baseball. Fifteen, sixteen thousand people in an away crowd. It was a surreal moment.”
His coach requested to add on to his pitcher's answer.
"That’s what makes this place so special,” added Forehand. “All that stuff that goes on in the outfield, to recognize that this kid pitched a great game and held a really good offense down for six innings, for a sold-out crowd to give a standing ovation to the other team, that’s so cool, so special. I hate that we didn’t win the game. But for an old guy who has been around the game a long time, this is what this game is all about.”
Lipscomb HC Jeff Forehand remarks on the standing ovation from Mississippi State fans for Bisons starter Alexander Llinas, “That’s what makes this place so cool.”
Here’s Mayor Pete announcing the Biden administration’s decision to fight the Jet Blue and Spirit merger so they could protect consumers and ensure low fares. Now the airline doesn’t exist and passengers are stranded across the country.
@Jthomp72 First of all the Beau Rivage is very nice. Second of all the date is 1/31/24, I’m betting the senior bowl was around that date back then which would explain why both were down there besides their affair of course.
