What republicans have drafted bills? Rand Paul? Donald Trump has taken over the Republican Party and turned it into his own. Whether you like it or not MAGA is leading the Republican Party. He owns the Republican Party and essentially does as he pleases. If you don’t follow, you are removed by either being fired or funding for your campaign goes to someone who will be a yes man to him. Republicans are too scared to do anything about it as they worry they will lose their congressional seat if they go against him. No Bill is going to happen and the amount of Republicans who say they trust Trump proves it. Which is exactly what Donald Trump wants. Would you rather MAGA/Trump be in charge or the Democrats?

There’s one in the house and one in the senate. The senate one is a bipartisan bill and apparently already has 7 republicans on board.

There is already an eye on the midterms, if the market does what is forecasted by many, this may the opening that the adults need

I'll file this under the very long list of facts you got wrong. You're an angry little elf. It's hilarious.

I'll file this under "Ville busted again for lying to inflate his ego and make himself look important on a message board".

Please, we're all begging to know what UofL's NIL is.

And how do you know UCLAs NIL?

What a sad, sad human being you are.

Okay, let's review this newest whopper of yours. You claimed:

They are building back, but right now it’s not what you think it is.

You were then challenged:

And then you responded by trying to insinuate that you "were in the know" of UofL's financial situation because you "supposedly" met Josh Heird at a PTA, and he "supposedly" told you the number. And NOW!!!, you're trying to tell us the number is public?????

The reason they were #1 is because they had 13 of them. Not saying they are a bunch of bums but in terms of talent most are not top end. Three of their starters are guys who came with Kelsey from Charleston. Kelsey is just that good

But wait, there more!! And it gets so much better:

So I just did a search, and lo and behold, "Louisville basketball program has a top ten NIL valuation in the country"!!! You can't make this shit up!!! You fucking lied twice in that original thread.

You fucking lie so much you can't keep track of them anymore. No one is impressed with you Ville - you're a fucking blowhard and a congenital liar.



According to a poll by CBS Sports, Louisville has the eighth-best NIL of any basketball program: https://bigredlouie.com/posts/louisv...y-01j5x9eh3c0j

I’m sure everyone is happy you are continuing to spam this thread. Post on a bb thread and I’ll answer. Nothing I said was incorrect. It’s funny you think a cbs sports poll somehow proved anything lol. I’m so very happy to see you all riled up though but you may want to take an extra dose of your Bp meds tonight

Yeah if itÂ’s Andy beshears dems (which in this political climate it never will be) give me beshear all day every day. I donÂ’t agree with him on some things but overall IÂ’ll take him over this nonsense any day.

By the way Phan here’s some info on the senate bill that’s been drafted: https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/...ill-trump/amp/

Yes USAID was closed but our mission/aid still remains. It just happened to merge with the department of state (albeit smaller).

The reason was to have more efficiency and accountability vs bureaucrats holding the purse strings. Other words cut the fat and waste.

Counties around the world have been doing the same for years. China did not fill those voids.

Quote:

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, whose department essentially absorbed USAID, has estimated that about 83% of the agency’s programs have been scrapped.
