Involvement in the Iran hostage crisis edit In March 2023, motivated by news of Jimmy Carter's hospice care, Barnes corroborated the 1980 October Surprise theory by telling journalist Peter Baker of The New York Times that in the summer of 1980 he was unwittingly involved in relaying promises from Reagan campaign officials to ask Iranian officials to withhold release of the hostages they held until after the 1980 presidential elections.

According to Barnes, in the summer of 1980 he accompanied former Texas governor and a former candidate in the 1980 presidential election, John Connally, on a trip to several Middle Eastern countries which records indicate to have included Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Israel.

Barnes claimed in 2023 that during the trip Connally would promote Ronald Reagan's candidacy to leaders of those countries, and told those leaders (except for the leaders in Israel) ‘It would be very smart for you to pass the word to the Iranians to wait until after this general election is over.’

Barnes asserted that he did not know in advance that Connally would say that on the trip, and believed that Connally was positioning himself for a nomination by a future Reagan Administration for either Secretary of State or Secretary of Defense.

Reagan did offer Connally the position of Secretary of Energy, but Connally declined. Barnes also claimed that shortly after returning to the United States, Connally reported on their trip to William J. Casey, who was chairman of Reagan's campaign, and later Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

A note in Connally's files confirms that he had contact with the Reagan camp early during the trip.[19] Reactions among the former hostages to Barnes' 2023 revelations were mixed. One former hostage criticized Barnes for not coming forward for more than 40 years. Others either did not believe Barnes' account, or said that Barnes confirmed their suspicions as to what went on behind the scenes.[20]

even wikipedia has a tough time with this one

In the NBA the PG does not always initiate, how could you possibly know the play call


he was brought in to provide veteran leadership and steady pg play while dylan harper matures

that is literally why they acquired him, the play calls are pretty irrelevant

this was key moments in the game

I'm not defending him, but 2 of the first 3 plays he passed the ball and it looked like could have been blamed on the other player. Feels like Wemby should have made himself more available and players should be looking for the ball when they are running up court. That doesn't seem like an absurd notion


Fox is the PG
unless he is being trapped, he should not be looking to give up the ball right there
it is his job to bring the ball up and get them into their offense

Sure, we will just pretend the recorder of that video was calm.

Think it through. It would make no sense to put these screws in multiple pumps based on just trying to hook a family member up with free gas.


from your link

quote:

After Northlake police issued their alert Monday, they said they were contacted by someone in the industry who said the alert was inaccurate and that the screws were installed by gas stations as a temporary fix to a broken gas pump nozzle flapper.


I saw this on reddit and what I still do not understand is how the scam is supposed to work if the screw is in FRONT of the flapper like in the TikTok video

I can see how it works if the screw is BEHIND the flapper

what I think this may be is some gas station owners know about the screw fix for the flapper and used this as a plausible excuse to set up the scam. Some content creator then makes a video about it and sees the screw fix being used correctly and makes a video accusing the store owners of a scam when they are not scamming at all

In fairness to Frisco/Collin county, these idiots you see in the courthouse video are not from the area, they are well know Black racial agitators that were brought in to stir up rhetoric..


they are paid and allowed to use the case for their fundraising. this was a hail mary defense team strategy to try to muddy the jury pool and create a bunch of noise for the Frisco Politicians and Civic Leaders. The racebaiters have provided the defense's case zero benefit and may have hurt his case.

I think the defense lawyers know what they are dealing with in their client and are trying to shift attention away from a clearly troubled and possibly sociopathic individual.

Black witnesses are going to seal Anthony's fate (with a conviction).


here is the irony in this case IMHO. The assumption that a Texas suburban black person would automatically be favorable to KA is risky. Frisco is 10% black and of that 10% I bet over 80% are educated and professional. So thinking they would default to racial protectionism in the face of a serious murder charge is foolish.

The race hustlers immediately started crying racism when the three black panelists were excluded. Two were educators in the FISD System and one was a guy who said he can't convict a brother. I think that guy said the magic words that would get him disqualified on purpose because he didn't want to serve. All three said they were exposed to media coverage and had strong opinions on the case.

What the lawyers should have been trying to get was as many college educated white women on the panel as possible. As shown by red stick tigress in this thread, these are the bleeding heart non-rational thinkers that could be convinced KA was just a good boy who was scared and did a bad thing.

If the prosecutors were going for racial disqualifications they should have tried to get all of the Indians off the panel. There is no love lost between suburban Indians and Blacks in Texas.

After the eyewitness testimony on Day 2 and Day 3, the defense strategy at this point should be to get this reduced to manslaughter and take Murder off the table if possible.
there is a well known case in the O&G Pipeline world of this

guy was a pipeline engineer for a major midstream company and pretty widely accepted as probably gay, but never indicated anything officially to anyone

he had a leave of absence of about a month and when he returned, he was now a she. There was an email from HR to her fellow employees but none of us vendors knew anything. First industry social event she shows up and everyone are blown away but very respectful. I soon had a meeting with her and her team that was non-eventful

she left the owner operator side and went to the city sales team on the services side and did well.

The funny thing is she was about 6’3 and 240 lbs has long feminine hair and wears golf shirts and khakis just like the rest of us. With very little makeup

with her hair you would just think she plays bass in a band on the weekends or something

Such a garbage take.

“This board” is not a thing. You see some people on here that fell for a PR push to sell her as some sort of avatar for young conservative woman. So what.

That is not the sum of “this board.”
