I'm not tired of winning….
Democrats flipped two more R seats in special elections.✊
Looks like Dick's is sticking it to the ammosexual community…..

…and that, ladies and gentlemen, is our call to action. The American, non-ammosexual community must reward Dick's for their decision. We do not have a store nearby, but I will definitely go online and make a purchase.
The American consumer wields enormous influence. Always has…always will.
Or as our right wing friends like to say, the invisible hand of the free market will reward or punish.
But notice in Georgia the iron fist of big government (the Lieutenant Governor and the State Senate) is putting its thumb on the scale by threatening Delta Airlines with economic penalties for having the audacity to stop giving freebies to the NRA.
Adam Smith would cry.
More than one forward thinking gov has invited Delta to move HQ
Guess it's time to swing by there and pick up some new athletic gear!
Picked up a nice pair of sneakers today. They're having a pretty big sale on many items. Definitely worth a look, in store or online!
Are we surprised?

Trump Nobel Peace Prize nomination probed amid fakery concerns
A nomination made for US President Donald Trump to receive the Nobel Peace Prize was potentially fraudulent, according to the awarding committee.
The Norwegian committee has filed a report with police over its concerns.
Mr Trump was reportedly nominated for his "ideology of peace by force" by an anonymous American.
The director of the Nobel Institute said there were concerns that Mr Trump's nomination may have been falsified.
">I can say that we have good reason to believe that [the nomination of Mr Trump] is a fake," Nobel Institute Director Olav Njølstad told Norwegian broadcaster NRK.

Well it does involve Norway, a nation Trump is fond of.
Hmm, perhaps Trump's best friend, "John Miller" submitted the nomination

Georgia police take teacher into custody after shots fired at school
In a related story . . .
. . . President Drumpf, after conferring with NRA officials, announces his plan to arm “highly gun adept” high school students.
"It's a well thought out program with a lot of training in advance. Maybe just the top 10-to-20 percent of students will qualify."
Students who agree to pack heat will be given extra-credit towards private, for-profit, College certificates; or 20% off discounts for the purchase of IvankaWear; or an extra jello pudding cup in the schools’ cafeterias.
That'll teach me to scan the thread before posting!
Hope Hicks is resigning — the 5th communications director to leave in his 14 month old administration.
You know what? I AM almost getting tired of winning
Must be a tough job, since all the best people don't seem to last.
Jason Miller [prior to inauguration] 2 days
Sean Spicer [acting/overlap as Press Secretary] 45 days
Mike Dubke 88 days
Sean Spicer [Acting] 49 days
Anthony Scaramucci 10 days
Hope Hicks 196 days
Someone did the math and said Trump was on pace to have 11 by the end of his first term (and that wasn't counting the 2 day Jason Miller, who pulls the average tenure WAY down).
So what now? Will the NRA "solve" this problem by recommending students have guns to protect themselves from wacko teachers?
