@MidnightRider @Bix oh no. 15 attempts to get the Soeakership including two where you have no clue what the actual vote count, based on your shady double deals is? That’s unprecedented in US History

Now we find out what Kevin promised…

Gotta love Ted Lieu. Heading to the big Speaker fight.

@peter_by_the_sea. CTE is more about the tackling and 1000s of falls, than the head contacts, although they’re bad too. Rugby has less head contact, but more contact/falling. Soccer has a lot less of both. CTE exists there, but in much lower numbers. American and Aussie football, and Rugby are death games. If you’ve covered these people, and watched their retirements devolve to CTE Alzheimer’s like symptoms, it’s really sad.

People are moved when Buffalo Bills’ Damar Hamlin collapses after a routine hit. True tragedy, but EVERYONE on that field is contracting CTE, for your AMUSEMENT. No one who watched football seems to have a problem with that.

@Vonzales then they’re not from the thousands of rural villages where you roll back to the 13th century, where anything beyond rudimentary education remains non existent and the state media is gospel. They’re the ones doing a lot of the fighting and dying, much as we tend to call upon those with less to do more. Our ideologies radically differ, but, in a country where Russian money has so effectively co opted GOP politicians that difference, for about 40% of Americans it’s negligible.
