He's actually from Connecticut, known as the “Constitution State” because its Fundamental Orders (1639) considered one of the first written constitutions and historically important in manufacturing, especially firearms (Colt, Winchester); but now known for being one of the most restrictive gun-law regimes in the U.S.! This is a Senate amendment (SA 4159/2973) to the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act (H.R. 3944), the latter providing money for building and maintaining military facilities, housing and infrastructure and including funding for bases, training facilities, and projects that support readiness and quality of life for service members as well as allocating funds for the Department of Veterans Affairs for healthcare, benefits, and programs for veterans including medical centers, mental health services and modernization of VA systems. It is not a coincidence that it was tied to this bill! By the way, $200 in 1934 is approximately worth $5,224 in 2026 when adjusted for inflation.

Winning! Man caught on camera throwing dozens of poop bags on Bell LGBTQ center roof: ‘He knows who we are’ On Wednesday, workers at an LGBTQ center in Southeast Los Angeles removed 125 bags of dog poop from their awning. It’s happening at Mi SELA on Florence Avenue in the city of Bell. Eddie Martinez, executive director at the center, told KNX News’ Emily Valdez that security video shows that every morning, a man walks his dog in front of the center and throws a bag of dog poop onto the awning. “He knows who we are,” he said. “He looks at the cameras.” He said that because littering is not a crime, the police can’t arrest the guy...

Yep, but it's nothing new. I had an issue when I filed a Form 4 for a free SBR a couple of years back during the brace amnesty period. I don't know why, it simply doesn't make sense...

Bonus points for quoting Pete Townshend!

Actually, further research revealed Buc‑ee’s leadership has acknowledged that the Johnstown store sits more than 700 miles from the nearest existing Buc‑ee’s supply network, forcing the company to stand up entirely new logistics chains in a market it had never operated in before. Although people often think of Coke exclusivity as a single nationwide contract, in reality pouring‑rights agreements are regional and are heavily dependent on local Coca‑Cola bottlers. If a Coca‑Cola bottler cannot meet volume, service, or timing requirements, the exclusivity clause may be delayed or modified for a specific site. Food‑industry reporting notes that the Colorado location appears to have opened before a compliant Coke distribution arrangement was finalized, resulting in a temporary “neutral” soda lineup instead of Coca‑Cola or Pepsi dominance. Pepsi isn't sold due to the long‑standing Coke agreement, so Buc‑ee’s appears chose brand‑neutral or third‑party beverages like Dr Pepper and RC Cola while the Coke logistics question remained unresolved.

Bad intel, bud! At nearly all Buc‑ee’s stores, the soda selection is exclusively Coca‑Cola–branded (as it should be in the South)! Buc‑ee’s has a long‑standing exclusive pouring‑rights agreement with Coca‑Cola dating back to 1997, which means Pepsi products are not sold at almost all of its locations. The lone exception is Johnstown, Colorado which does not sell Coca‑Cola or Pepsi products. It only carries Dr Pepper, RC Cola and/or store or regional brands. No reason for that can be found... https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/articles/popular-soda-brand-wont-buc-112000752.html

This, and you may want to get actual legal advice on how to proceed. I know there is a lot of knowledge and experience on this forum, but this is one area I would most definitely discuss with a lawyer before going forward. Control the narrative, don't let it control you!

They can have him! Lagway's a quitter who didn't like how Sumrall was challenging his desire to play and commitment to the team. Now we know Sumrall was right! Lagway dealt with multiple injuries (sports hernia surgery, shoulder issues, calf strain), threw 14 interceptions in 2025 and struggled with consistency. Adios!

Agreed, CH will be intolerable if they do! 🤣🤣🤣 Same if a SEC team (UGA, Bama or Ol' Miss) wins it! 😁😁😁 I still can't believe they beat Ohio State, but I'm not unhappy about it! 🏈

Air Force general to retire after service overturns ruling by COVID review board clearing him of misconduct Brig. Gen. Christopher Sage has spent the last four years of his Air Force career quietly fighting to clear his name of wrongdoing, get back on the promotion list and stay in the service. Disciplined for decisions he made as a commander deployed to the Middle East during the coronavirus pandemic — such as reopening gyms and removing barbed wire surrounding quarantine areas — an Air Force board reviewing COVID-related adverse actions determined he faced retaliation for his views. A majority of the board agreed in November he should have the black mark removed from his record and have his fast-approaching forced retirement date extended to be returned to consideration for promotion to major general. However, an Air Force senior official disagreed and overturned the board’s decision six days later, and Sage will retire at the end of the year. The official, Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Manpower and Reserve Affairs Richard Anderson, said there was insufficient evidence for the board’s decision...

Dumbass reporters, don't they know Charleston AFB and the International Airport share the same runway?!?

Just to save everyone from having to go on Instagram...

Nothing new, when I arrived at my first assignment over 40 years ago, the SP squadron had been nearly wiped out by an unannounced piss test!

From what I've read, Hiatt was well liked and respected...

This is an interesting one...

How do you like it?

A much better option that's about the same price and much better quality for a budget build truck gun!!

I am a huge supporter of law enforcement as I have a lot of friends who work in it at the local, state and Federal levels. I've also worked directly with local agencies and found most are honest, law-abiding officers who dedicate their lives to protect others. However, I also know such bullshit as this occurs all the time.... https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/investigations/article/texas-traffic-stop-search-bexar-county-21079297.php I'd like to think it's with the right intent, but know it's usually overzealous officers stepping far beyond their authorities! I understand firsthand the border situation and that all capabilities are needed to defeat that threat, but harassing citizens like that should never be tolerated! And yes, that $7,268.46 Bexar County sent Schott to cover damages to his truck during the search comes from the taxes I pay!

Not for us Gators!! 😁😁😁

Haven't y'all heard?!?

Absolutely would NOT buy an ATI, they made shit AKs back in the day so I don't trust them one iota! Palmetto State Armory makes far better AR pistols for not much more!

Big difference between "losing" and "losing badly," and I am very well aware of how much territory has been lost and the costs on both sides from legitimate intel sources. Putin isn't winning...

Where are you getting your intel? And I'm talking real intel, not the Internet...
