If you renounce your citizenship then you also give up your SS payments. That's why almost all retired expats don't renounce their citizenship. That and you never know if you might want to move back at some point.

re: JD Vance has been sidelined over Trump's predilection of women's nipples

Abuse is doing some heavy lifting in that sentence.

Abuse of a nipple should be reserved for nothing short of biting a chunk of the nipple off.

I'm not sure I would use the word abuse even if he was going around and grabbing random nipples and twisting them while exclaiming, "Tittie twister!"

Sounds like it's time for the King to dissolve parliament and call for new elections.

I know the Tories were pretty useless for the 15 or so years that they were in power, but they'd still be a better option than these Labour Party fascists.

The problem with non-profit NGO's is that they always outstay their initial mission. Once they achieve whatever they were founded for they can't just close down. The pay is too good. They have to start creating boogie men or take up crazier causes, so the money doesn't stop flowing in. In the case of the SPLC, they had to fund hate groups or they would have naturally died off.

re: ITT we draft a new US Bill of Rights for the 21st Century and beyond -1st Amendment

Posted by mikesliveisacheater on 6/10/26 at 11:07 am to BrodyDad

You can't just edit an Amendment. You have to pass a new Amendment that supersedes it. An example is the 18th and the 21st.

I don't know why you would want to change the 1st Amendment anyway. Why would you want to take away any rights that we currently have? If you want to add rights then you would just make another Amendment.

I'm pretty sure we've had written modifications over the past 240 years. They are called Amendments.

On second thought, if you have to watch McAfee then the sound being off is probably the best way.

I'd imagine they'd need to be employed by a larger entity than the actual schools to avoid problems with caps on state employee compensation.

Not to mention the headache that it would cause university presidents that would have to listen to faculty whine about players getting paid x as many times as faculty salaries. They already bitch about the coaches salaries, if the players were university employees it would cause a shite storm.

So he's going to get paid more per year than all but 2 NFL players (Dak and Burrow at $61 mil/per year), to do his obnoxious day time talk show and be on College Gameday 20 or so times a year?

The people running ESPN are retarded.

Who are they even bidding against? Fox Sports isn't going to offer him anywhere near that much. I can't imagine any of the streaming platforms offering him that much for just his show.

I've come to the point that outlawing all prop bets would go a long way in solving most of the modern sports betting problems.

This would definitely help. Unfortunately the gambling sites make way too much money suckering people into prop bet parlays that make them a lot of money, so they'll never voluntarily do this.

Louisiana banned prop bets on college sports a few years back. I think it would have to be done state by state by each state's gaming commission.
