  1. I assume there are people who worked for the NCAA at the time who could verify this. I mean it's easy to say things like this, but without some sort of verification, well...Hitchens' razor. Fine. Why is he still under this conservatorship at the age of 37 when his NFL career is long over? The thing is they were counting on the idea that he would never express that because he was, falsely, led to believe this conservatorship made him part of the family. Were they ever counting on the idea that one day he'd show up and say "I want out of the family?" "According to the legal filing, the movie paid the Tuohys and their two birth children each $225,000, plus 2.5% of the film's "defined net proceeds." So someone is lying and it's on Michael to demonstrate it either way. I'm sure if Mr. Tuohy is telling the truth, he'd have no trouble whatsoever with the demand that they produce an accounting. Ok, the book was published when Michael was a sophomore at Ole Miss, so how would this not be a violation of NCAA rules? Again, why keep Michael under a conservatorship when he's nearing 40? Would Mr. Tuohy say it's less upsetting than, as upsetting as, or more upsetting than Michael finding out after nearly 2 decades that they've been lying both to him and the public about being part of the family when he certainly was not?
  2. How could it be an NIL deal when the movie wasn’t even filmed, much less released, until after his eligibility was up?
  3. Why would it be the NCAA's fault?
  4. I expected this as well. It’s a trademark of rightist politics in general to pounce on the vaguest appearance of oppositional impropriety, run with it and scream about it until the end of fucking time. Clockwork.
  5. His voters? No, they don't. His supporters in DC? Yeah they see it and they support it. They're not interested in governing; they're interested in ruling.
  6. If you really think about it, what he actually said is even more narcissistic. What he said was “I would like to promise and pledge to all of my voters and supporters and to all of the people of the United States that I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election...if I win."
  7. It's essentially the same thing as the criminal case he's dealing with in Florida. Yeah the description of the court says "Southern District of Florida," but it's still a federal case. Yep. Pure local misdemeanor crap is tried, at least in Georgia, by the Solicitor General. County Attorneys really only exist for civil matters concerning the government. In fact, the Camden County Attorney's website specifically says "The county attorney manages all county leases and county litigation issues, but does not handle any criminal matters."
  8. The State is going to indict him in Fulton County. https://pacga.org/about-pacga/ "The District Attorney is the chief prosecuting officer for the State of Georgia within each of the State’s 50 judicial circuits. Judicial circuits consist of one to eight counties and are generally named for a geographical feature within the Circuit."
  9. This is probably what the Reuters thing is: https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-state-georgia-appears-set-file-charges-against-donald-trump-court-document-2023-08-14/
  10. "There's a totally perfect african american in my ass right now. The very best african american. But I have to say, the food has gone to hell. When I was president, a Prisoner would get the very best food Anywhere. Totally "the" best. They thought Bobby Flay was working in There. They would tell Me that. But now thanks to the Biden Crime Family and the do-Nothing socialist Pinko communist "anarchist" fascist Leftist democrats, it doesn't "even" compare to a breakfast buffet from some fleabag Hotel in a Shithole country."
  11. The most honest self-reporters. The best self-reporters 3:10-3:13
  12. I mean sure but you have to understand that most of the dialogue concerning his eligibility is limited to things that range from “unavoidable” to “realistic.” That’s why you never see anyone mention the fact that, for example, the GQP is a private party that is well within their right to preemptively disqualify him from running as a Republican. That’s not gonna happen, but it theoretically could.
  13. As the article already points out, I love how this degenerate says "provision in the Declaration of Independence" as if it were a legal instrument.
  14. Beat me to it. I was very happy to see that he pointed out paragraph 83 (7:30 mark), which to me puts to rest any and all debate about "what did he really know?" He fucking knew that he lost and he admitted it...just not in public. Of course he further demolishes that nonsense beginning around 15:30 with the "state of mind" stuff. I also liked the bit at the end re: Elias. That's a perfect illustration of how absurd the MAGA argument is. Trump's case here is like an onion that's rotting from the inside: keep peeling them damned layers and it just keeps looking worse.
  15. And with that said, I wouldn’t advise Trump on filing for COV. He’s not going to get more friendly juries in either of those states. Of course he probably has it in his tiny little mind that he can shift the venues of all his cases to Aileen Cannon.
  16. Which is exactly what I do and what I encourage everyone else to do, but that’s independent of two things: 1. My whole point was that I expect that to happen (high turnout against Trump) and have no reason not to expect it. 2. For Trump to use his expectation of the exact opposite of that as any part of his criminal defense strategy is absolutely crazy. Well hopefully they won’t be buried. Hopefully we will be able to cremate them and urinate upon the ashes a la Shooter McGavin.
