Trump’s wrong. Prices are gong up on just about everything. “Government data, including from the Commerce Department this week, show that prices rose in June on items heavily exposed to tariffs, such as home furnishings, toys and appliances,” The New York Times reported over the weekend. That’s Trump’s Commerce Department. He may be trying to cook the books in other areas—notably by firing the federal official tasked with collecting (recently disappointing) jobs data—but he can’t hide the fact that the economy is getting worse. On Friday, a Morning Consult poll found that nearly two-thirds of surveyed voters blamed Trump for rising prices—and that nearly eight in ten of them, including an astounding 70 percent of Republicans, believe Trump’s tariffs will increase the price of everyday goods. On Monday, an AP-NORC poll found that more than half of respondents were stressed about rising grocery prices—prices that are likely to continue to rise. Everywhere you look, voters are telling pollsters that they’re stressed about skyrocketing costs. Trump was elected because Americans were furious about post-pandemic inflation. He promised to lower prices. Instead, he embarked on a stupid, reckless, and unnecessary tariff regime that is accomplishing the exact opposite. So voters who felt financially squeezed during Joe Biden’s presidency, and were expecting some relief under Trump, are in for a rude awakening. Next year could make the inflation of recent memory look mild. If I were the president who was responsible for this, I’d be freaking out, too. Midterms can’t get here quick enough!

Dave Campbell’s Texas football magazine
tigerheart replied to purpleeagle's topic in High School Football
It’s ok. I had also reached out to support through the website. Long story short just got overlooked in a shuffle. Transitioned my account from online only to the magazine and online subscription and somewhere in the chain it got missed. Apologies were made and I can appreciate that and move on. DCTF is a big venture and mistakes happen. like I’ve said before, I love the online stuff and had been doing the online subscription. With the magazine getting harder each year to find I figured I’d switch to the subscription that included the magazine to save myself some hassle. DCTF isn’t losing me, i just needed to vent. And I got the apology/ explanation so all is good. -

I’m political, you must of forgot your post I responded to. LOL. YOU are the one that brought up the numbers, I just put them in perspective and you don’t like it. I know in my job, if I held the #1 and #2 worst mistakes in my companies history, I’d be unemployed……. Do you really think it’s dumb luck it “happened” on her watch twice?

DCTF's Best Game for each week of 2025 season
OlDawg replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Football
The stadium is very sweet. Waiting to see if the Dawgs can fulfill the hype. They’ve had the luxury of 3 very talented backs, and the loss of Barnes and Sandolph is no small loss. Simon is on another level. But, he’s going to be taking on a big load as the feature. The first 3 games are all tough in their own way. The Border Battle is always unpredictable, and Deer Park is usually a solid 6A PO team. If they didn’t always have to face NS in Bidistrict, they’d probably advance further. Kingwood is going to be stout again with quite a few returners. I expect them to be the 4th place team from 23-6A again behind NS, Atascocita, and Summer Creek, and make the 6A PO’s. In another district, they’d probably finish 1st or 2nd. PNG is tough with Coach Joseph, ranked #9, and expected to do well again. LP doesn’t shy away from solid, physical competition. I just hope they can stay relatively injury free—unlike last year. They didn’t get back to pretty much full strength until about halfway through district play. -

This is why the Dems are afraid and run a way. They have nothing left to gerrymander. But that's not the case for the red states. -

Texas GOP's New Congressional Map Would Create 5 New Seats!
OlDawg replied to Reagan's topic in Political Forum
There is a legal difference between civil disobedience & lawful protest in Texas. You should learn the difference. Simple enough for you to comprehend? This is a lawful protest—according to Texas Law—and can also be considered dereliction of duties under Texas House Rules. First Amendment rights are protected in a lawful protest in Texas, and breaking the quorum itself isn’t illegal. No Texas Penal Codes have been broken. Political rules are the quibble. That is the distinction. So, when asking everyone if they know what ‘civil disobedience is’, remember you’re discussing a legal term with a legal definition that can be different in different states. Civil Disobedience in Texas violates Penal Codes, and First Amendment rights aren’t guaranteed. -

You are one bloviating dude. Aggies said let the voters decide. I said that would take a constitutional amendment. The Constitution says either the Legislature or a 5 member board do it. You get it, now? -

What do you think civil disobedience is? -
Thru three innings, Arrighetti has given up 5 runs on 10 hits. Over 70 pitches. Not the start he was wanting for his first time back since beginning of season.

Illinois is one of the worst, if not the worst. The GOP just has some catching up to do. -
Maybe it’s the data collection system. Can you think in a non political way about anything pertaining to the federal government and its internal workings?

The 818,0000 was the SECOND largest annual revision - #1 happening in 2009, that over 900,000 lower than reported. This July number 258K is the largest 2 month reduction since 1979 (if you take out covid) So under her watch she holds #1 and #2 top spots....... Maybe it was time for her to go.
