I believe, though Please correct me, that seven Biden family members were recipients of wire transfers from a Hunter Biden affiliate that received funds which originated from a ChiCom related energy company. Is that not correct? What those transfer mean or don’t means should be explored as Joe’s simple “that’s not true” doesn’t wash given his penchant for abject falsehoods. Paste that press article here and let’s see it. I didn’t know there are seven members in the Biden family. Pardon the typo; it was meant to say several. I believe the Washington Times had an article onthis topic detailing payments to Hunter, James, Hallie and an unnamed Biden.

Respectfully, do you not believe the Biden family made boatloads of money from Chinese businesses? That is all I said. Elvado: Respectfully, do you think there’s evidence of that out there that Reps haven’t found throughout of all these years? Or if Reps have found it, they haven’t use it giving Biden the win?

Tas: Respectfully, do you not believe the Biden family made boatloads of money from Chinese businesses? That is all I said. Biden or members of his family? And, by "boatloads," are we talking Jared Kushner "boatloads?" Again, evidence... I said “Biden family coffers”. And in my little world, millions are still boatloads. Well done getting a Trump reference in though.

Evidence is for suckers. If you believe it enough and repeat it enough, it's true. Didn't you get the memo on the entirety of the "Republican" worldview? That's how drag queens become a bigger issue than climate change. Tas: Respectfully, do you not believe the Biden family made boatloads of money from Chinese businesses? That is all I said.

China already funds Biden… … according to FauxNews. Right. There is no ChiCom money flowing through the Biden family coffers. Joe said so. And he never lies. That’s how he got a full academic ride to Law School, visited Mandela, graduated top of his class, lost his wife to a drunk driver, etc… We should all take his word…. Countdown to but Trump lies more in 3,2,1

Anyone who thinks that an RFK Jr. candidacy will cause havoc among the Democrats is delusional. The Kennedy name will get him nowhere, and his attraction will be limited to the lunatic fringe of anti-vaxxers. Take a hike, RFK Jr. I’m not suggesting he is a viable candidate to democratic voters, I am suggesting he is a Manchurian candidate funded by China via Bannon to say befuddling things to try to trip Biden up and create good sound bytes to broadcast on Fox News where they can pretend they support some Democrat candidates and are not solely a propaganda arm of the Republican Party. China already funds Biden…

A question in the Transfer Portal era: why do so many confuse the chase for the prize? As of April 19, over 1500 Division I players have effectively withdrawn from their schools in search of another opportunity. How many of these will sniff the NBA? Twenty, maybe 30. Another 30 or 40 will wander through the G-League. Another group are headed overseas and get to tell their kids what it was like playing in Serbia or Chile. But for the clear majority of these 1500 transfers and counting, college basketball is the figurative end of the road for their athletic careers, and a large number of them aren't even going to earn a degree: the deflated basketball personified. Yes, some leave because they're not happy with their coach. Some want to be closer to home. Some may be struggling to stay eligible. Others think that some bag money from a collective is all they need. And at some schools, maybe that's par for the course, to mix sports metaphors. But why does someone, who's not going to take a decided step up in their basketball careers, transfer from places like Georgetown after their sophomore or junior year, assuming that the above issues don't apply? Malcolm Wilson likely had ample opportunity to leave in the last three seasons, but it appears he's on his way to getting a degree and play a grad transfer season for free, and good for him on both counts. Jordan Riley isn't one of those kids who went to three high schools in three years and living all over the country in alleged prep schools with an enrollment of 13. He grew up on Long Island, and went to public high school there. After two years, basketball at Georgetown wasn't what he had hoped, but he's halfway to a degree. Even if coach Cooley doesn't want him on the team, Riley has the ability to remain a student on financial aid and graduate in 2025, with a lot less headache as an athlete and a lot more opportunity to network for a career should he decide not to play overseas. So why do more players that aren't going pro simply stay enrolled and get a degree instead? And then there's this guy. Remember him? He's headed to a fifth school in the last five years. Wasted Talent, Sonny…

Why are people mad at Nickelberry? For me it is because he and the Traveling Nickelberrys exploited the power vacuum of a clearly overmatched head coach and operated as their own city state inside the team.

I remember Ronny being somewhat limited athletically, but he had nice form on his jump shot, with a high arc and good rotation. He didn't get too much run, but his outside shot always looked pretty good. He almost single-handedly threw away the UTEP game circa 1990…

Whiffing on Dickinson would be a monumental fail. He's the difference maker. Give him what he wants and bring him in. “Monumental fail”? If we don’t land the number-one available player? This is serious hyperbole, even for this place. If we miss on him and don’t land another center because we had all of our eggs in one basket, sure, that’s pretty bad. If we miss on him and he commits to some Mickey Mouse organization, also bad. But if he pops for a blue blood and we end up with someone else decent, is that really a “fail” at all? Could not agree more. This entire discussion has morphed into a baseball-like “true outcome” analysis. This recruitment is not HR or K. That we are in there swinging after the last 2 years is already a positive. Either way, the program is in better shape now than a month ago.

If true and it sticks, a new day has actually dawned on GU hoops.

Shocking that a team first guy like Primo would have gone into business for himself…

So you do or do not agree that this is the emptiest of symbolic gestures? Do you agree Dr. Biden’s husband won the 2020 presidential election? Your deflection is not amusing or productive. I believe anything that adds to the respect and recognition given to elite women athletes is productive and worthy, even if the effort is sometimes misguided. And I believe Reese needs to grow up a bit - stop the trash talk once the battle is won kid. Of course he won. He has been President since 1/20/21. I believe this is the kind of everybody gets a trophy crap that has created a generation of prize-entitled veal. LSU won. They get a ring. They get the White House visit. Nobody else should get anything.

If this were about respect for Iowa, I might be with you. This is about a “teachable moment” and is a load of crap. Monster irony coming from a supporter of a guy who claims he won when the scoreboard makes clear he’s a loser. So you do or do not agree that this is the emptiest of symbolic gestures?
