The Truman thing is apparently about whether or not to go through with the midlife refueling and overhaul in 2024. Seems odd to not do it but the Pentagon apparently announces back in February that they’d start decommissioning the ship instead when the refueling is necessary. https://www.stripes.com/cno-nominee-backs-navy-plan-to-scrap-uss-truman-as-white-house-vows-to-keep-the-ship-1.579086 While we are building new carriers it seems weird for the CNO to want a smaller fleet.

psydude posted:LMAO yes he did. Yes, absolutely. That maneuver nearly caused a nascar-esq pile up which would’ve resulted in horses and jocks dying. The horse probably spooked when it saw the largest crowd it’s ever seen coming around the final turn. You don’t have “the best horse” if they’re not under control.

Hot Karl Marx posted:next year theyre going to allow the jockeys to use weapons during the Kentucky derby, per trumps request Usually “he” fixes typos so I wonder if that’ll be deleted. Or if its some sort of subtle dig to Mitch McConnell. Regarding the weapons, horse racing was pretty mad max before the... 1920s(?) or so. Eventually they put stewards in raised platforms at each turn instead of only at the grandstands so they could disqualify anyone pulling those stunts.

A Bad Poster posted:What happened with these stupid horses that is making stupid people lose their minds? The horse that was first across the finish line in the Kentucky derby was disqualified. On the last turn the horse was on the outside ("4 position" I think they said), the horse spooked when the crowd came into view and cut across to a line nearest the rail ("1 position"). One or more horses were "interfered with" which is a euphemism for a collision or a forcing another jockey to take action to prevent one.

facialimpediment posted:Nah, Contempt of Congress is no biggie and they're mostly doing it to strengthen the fight in court to get the full Mueller Report. They can't really do the whole Inherent Contempt Lockerup thing because as AG, he gets guards and that would be kind of awkward for a Sergeant-at-arms to deal with. Plus, they're going after him regarding the report, not his House testimony that he blew off. The sergeant at arms can at least serve it and see what they say.

Most importantly this makes it still in a massive grey area where financial services can't be provided to weed related companies and there can be no trade between states. The correct policy position is to regulate it just like alcohol. You can vote your state/county/city wet or dry if you want, other drugs should be exactly the same.
