@BuckSexton Only a damn yankee would ask such an idiotic question. Hasn't your Visa ti visit the south expired?

[James Woods @RealJamesWoods]

Don’t let this go viral though.

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@ClayTravis I benched 335 at 57 years old. I am now 71 and will be 72 in September. I will hit 4 to 5 reps with 225 and do at least 6 or 7 pull ups. on my birthday. I started lifting when I was 10. Keep after it and kick ass! Oh, a 100mph tennis serve is feminine speed. Oh well,

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@CarlHigbie I'm 71 years young boy. I read where men 70 plus on average could do zero pull ups. Hell, I've been lifting since I was 10. I haven't done pull ups in 40 years or so. I knocked out 4. My goal on my 72nd birthday is 225 lbs 4 reps on the bench. You want to spot me?

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

Pard, I’m 71 years younger than. I’m benching only 3 sets of 15 reps and the 4th 25. My goal for my 72nd birthday is 2 to 4 reps at 225. I hadn’t done any pull ups in at least 30 years; I did 3 two days ago. I will hit at least 6 or 7 by my birthday in September. I need to crank up the running. I am an almost old jock. I’ll be one till I transition off. I’m low carb and going more and more carnivore. Get the hell out of that commie state in which you live boy. Come on down south where we are free! Cheers doc!

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@seanmdav Are you an athlete sir? Are you a veteran? You seem to be someone who just might have been in your high school band on the school newspaper. I believe you are quite a beta male. What’s worse, a journalist. Good night sir.

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@SBakerMD Doc, I'm 71 and will be 72 in September. I am an old jock. Been lifting for 61 years. I have a 33 in waist and 16" arms. I get the same shit, " you're on TRT crap." Nope, it's all me and long followed low carb lifestyle. Cheers fellow traveller!

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@elonmusk Yes sir, we absolutely do not live in a democracy. We live in a constitutional republic. You are welcome.

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@ClayTravis Good job son. I'm 71, I hit 225 on my birthday in September 3 reps. I'm pushing for 4 this upcoming September. Cheers!

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@EricLDaugh Just do it!!

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@seanmdav Dip shit, just watch and see how the SEC hits and runs with size. I played, did you wimpy?

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@seanmdav Davis, the SEC teams are the Roman Legions. The rest of college football resemble Germania.

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@MattLeinartQB "It's like two mules fightin' over a turnip. Who gives a shit!" SEC baby.

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@ClayTravis Early boy. The BIG DAWG will eat.

[Jim Burrell @Jim_Burrell]

@SBakerMD EAT! As long as it’s real meat!

@COLRICHARDKEMP Israel "TOOK" not brought. Please try to use proper grammar. My god.

Many think Trump is being dismissive of the Epstein thing -- cavalier. I don't read it that way. I think he's pissed. He has racked up amazing, unprecedented policy accomplishments and Epstein is sucking the wind out of it -- not to just to his detriment, but ultimately to ours.

I think we're being presented with a false choice: you either favor full disclosure no matter the law and consequences about which we have no knowledge, or you're a pedi-protector.

Do you all really believe Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, let alone Pam Bondi despite her PR missteps, have something to hide here? Is it conceivable that Patel and Bongino have railed about this issue for some time and now have some nefarious motive in changing their position? Did they find out -- unbeknownst to themselves -- that they are on the list?

Could there be some plausible explanation as to why they are playing their cards close to the vest for the time being, or is the fact that they're doing so proof that they are suddenly embroiled in corruption?

That is not plausible to me. I don't think these people changed their stripes that quickly. And I don't think my willingness to trust them -- makes me an enabler of corruption or perversion.

Back to Trump. If he were implicated the Dems would have crucified him when they had sole possession of the materials -- files, list or no list. You know it. I know it.

But now people who have doggedly supported him even through tougher times are turning on him and piling on with the opportunistic Democrats who heretofore haven't given two shakes about any of this.

None of us knows the full story yet. None of us knows yet why the administration hasn't done a better job explaining at least that they'll be able to tell us more later.

But it seems many have so much invested in believing the worst about this -- that Epstein was the leader or at the center of a Robert Ludlum-level international conspiracy -- that they can't let it go. It's as if their worldview will crumble if their worst suspicions aren't vindicated. And if Trump and his administration happen to be in office when this whole thing fizzles, then they too must have been nefariously drawn into this conspiracy that is too powerful even for the fiercest of otherwise moral mortals.

In the meantime, Trump's heyday is being rained on and he feels betrayed by a bunch of supporters who in turn feel that he's betrayed them.

Well, I'm just asking for a little grace on both sides, especially the supporters who should at least give Trump, Bongino, Patel, and even Bondi some trust here before throwing them to the dogs. There has to be more to the story -- or possibly way less to the story.

But this idea that previously non-corrupt people have immediately become corrupt just doesn't pass the smell test for me and it surprises me that so many supporters have been so quick to jump ship.

And I repeat -- no way in hell I'm defending the protection or insulation of pedophiles or corruption. Trump's policies on the border alone have burnished his credentials as an enemy of trafficking and pedophilia. (I'm not intending to conflate the different issues, but he deserves credit for that).

And as dramatic and juicy as it sounds, I do not believe occam's razor leads to the conclusion that the administration is concealing these "files" or lists because to disclose them would implicate all kinds of world leaders and lead to the downfall of civilization. Sorry folks. Just not buying it.

I could very well be wrong about all of this, which goes without saying. But can some of Trump's latter day critics make the same disclaimer? Will they? Or are they sure they know this is the worst thing that's ever happened and they now know that the deep state is so deep that it drills all the say down to China and encompasses Trump and his administration?

I'm not being sarcastic and I'll allow as how the administration hasn't handled this adroitly -- and that's an understatement. But I seriously doubt that if they are concealing anything it is because they are in any way involved in corruption. If they are holding back serious information I have to assume they have a darned good reason for doing so, even if in the end, they are wrong. I also suspect we'll learn more sooner rather than later (I hate that Clinton-born phrase).

We have a country to save and we need to remember that -- which, again, is not to say, "Let's close our eyes to massive corruption because the end justifies the means." Rather, it is to say, we have a country to save and the government officials we're entrusting to do that as our representatives are probably not doing anything wrong here -- and you should strongly consider that.

So many people I greatly respect I'm sure radically disagree with me here but that doesn't make me disrespect them or judge them -- as I fear many of them might judge me for my stance here. But I can live with that. And at least, in humility I will say I don't know and can't yet know all that's involved and until I have more information in the fullness of time I'm going to trust the people I trust -- and they've repeatedly earned that trust. Beyond my wildest expectations in fact. Accomplishing things I would never have thought possible, much less in such a short period of time, from the dismantling of the administrative state and department of education to the emasculation of Iran's nukes and the sealing of a seemingly irreversibly porous border to the re-unleashing of energy, to the taming of inflation to the resurrection of the military, to the DOGE focus on fraud, waste and corruption, to the defunding of Ivy League institutions to Tariff revenues to major steps toward peace around the world. And so much more.

God bless you all -- because presumably we want the same things -- except those who would exploit this issue, or any others for their own self-aggrandizement.

SALT is a burden on well run states exploited by the most poorly run states. What’s your view?
