    Poor Steven Colbert

    Nobody knew Carson or Leno's politics. Letterman hid his while he was on the air. Not these guys. Alienating half the possible audience isn't the wisest move in an industry that is slowly dying.

    Tucker is back in Moscow

    So, how does that standard hold up against ABC and George Stephanopoulos, or is it only the amount of the settlement that matters to you?? The reason Dominion wanted Tucker deposed is because he thought the claims against Dominion and rigged voting machines were bogus. In other words, he...

    Joe pardons Hunter.

    The only ones talking about a revenge tour are the Democrats. Biden had better be quite careful about issuing more pre-emptive pardons. Once you're pardoned, you can no longer plead the 5th under oath. And Hunter refusing to testify under oath could be charged with contempt, which as a new...

    Teamsters at the GOP Convention

    Nah, seniority isn't a concept invented by unions. You don't get to staple people just because they don't see the value that the union offers, or can't join because of personal beliefs. For example... the Amish and Mennonites typically can't join secular organizations, including unions. And...

    Sun Country Airlines after first NMB Mediated session

    Oh, I'm sure it is, but they don't operate a daily schedule like you'd see elsewhere, and the notion of a 45 minute turn simply doesn't exist. NFL and college football charters don't do a whole lot Monday thru Thursday, but the weekends can be hell, so you're more likely to see things like the...

    Spirit Bankruptcy Rumors

    All of that including "doubt to continue as a going concern" is fairly standard boilerplate for a SEC filing when you're in bankruptcy.

    Trump Wins.

    Go ahead and say "Cult of Personality" about the GOP, and then try to describe Democrats without having Oprah, Beyonce, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Taylor Swift and Whoopie Goldberg to push their messaging... I think what most Democrats hate most about "MAGA" is that the GOP found out they...

    Sun Country Airlines after first NMB Mediated session

    The one that fits your lifestyle. Sun Country's operation doesn't demand the same 24/7 coverage that a hubbed airline does, and they'll never have to worry about uprooting their families. Some people see that as a positive....

    Trump Wins.

    Well, seems they're not quite as enamored with LGBTQ+ issues as you think they might be, or human trafficking... But hey, you were raised Catholic some 40+ years ago. How many transgender students or pandemic related lockdowns were there back then? My son is Catholic, and disagrees with you...

    Sun Country Airlines after first NMB Mediated session

    Nah, you guys are nuts. Sun Country is actually doing OK and has a history of stability.... Possibly more stable than being a new hire at AA. The guys working there chose not to work at Delta.

    Should Frontier and Spirit Merge?

    Nobody's touching that steaming diaper.

    Teamsters at the GOP Convention

    Nah, I'm in agreement with you -- if you're not a member, you automatically waive any obligation for the union to represent you in a grievance. DFR I'm a bit less forgiving on, as the union could always do something shady like have the company lay off the non-union members first instead of...

    Teamsters at the GOP Convention

    The only possible heartburn with that pick is that she voted against right to work. That may get a few No votes from the GOP but might garner a few Dem votes. Upside is it won't affect the 119th House.

    Trump Wins.

    Possibly the House, but definitely not the Senate in 2026. The at-risk seats for the GOP are NC and ME. If both were flipped, that would still leave a GOP majority. Then there's GA and MI, currently held by Dems and could conceivably flip TO the GOP based on this month's election results...
