I don't see an "ounce of justification" in what happened that day. It was shameful. Embarrassing. Third Worldish. Condemn it.

Without Trump fanning the flame of a stolen election, it would never have happened. Offended/disturbed me to the point I could not vote for him even though his view of the proper role of government coincides with mine more than his opponent.

To the Left, J6 appears to have become a way over the top obsession where the real threat is grossly exaggerated bc they Hate Trump. Would lead one to believe the Capitol Police were in the Alamo. In reality, the sole fatality was an unarmed female US veteran killed by an unthreatened officer. Perhaps that prevented the overthrow of the US government.

Listen to yourselves. Absurd.

All in this together. Wish every incoming Prez, regardless of party, the best in moving our Nation forward.

Two current concerns:

We still offer grad programs for players already in School at Richmond. Also it you transfer as a undergraduate, you can still be in graduate program at Richmond🏈🕸️🕷️

Yes, let's live in the real world not all had guns but some did. There were thousands on attack, including para military. Many were military, or police trained in hand to hand combat. They used bats, flag pole; batons and shields they stole from the police they nearly beat to death. They came armed with bear and other chemical sptays. You call them a "few hundred misguided, unarmed extremist", I know what I saw in horror and I call it an angry mob with intent to disrupt by any means the normal authority and function of our government. Looks like an insurrection to me.

Defined under 18 U.S.C. § 2383, insurrection refers to any act of rising against the authority of the state or its laws. Legally, it's the violent uprising against governmental authority. This includes taking up arms or otherwise actively opposing the government's power and lawful authority.

The rise of the women’s team could be coming a “big thing”. Women’s basketball nationally is surging. We do not appear to be doing anything above past efforts to engage the broader community. Yes we invite school groups and girl’s basketball teams - but we could do so much more - and if the Athletic Department allowed the 1970s - 1980s volunteer Spider Club to be reorganized, good things would happen. We still have active volunteer Spiders who know how to help.

Today is Liberation Day. Tomorrow, a new day will dawn, one based on freedom.

So you agree with pardoning the thugs who attacked the Capitol and tried to overthrow the federal government?

You have no moral authority to complain. Democrats have forfeited the high ground. Why not admit Biden was wrong?

I saw his post speech interviews, while he was signing the bulk of his executive orders. Most of what he said was funny. However, he said that Russia had more than 1 million deaths (he probably meant casualties). Then he said "and by the way, Ukraine has 700,000 deaths." That really hurts Ukraine. That information is Top Secret. It was an unforced error. It was appalling.

Unlike you, I prefer dealing with facts. And unlike Trump and his cult followers who denied the results of the 2020 election, I agree that Trump won this one.

Presidential pardon powers are clearly enumerated in the Constitution. It's not even remotely close to "lawless behavior." Did you flunk civics?

How do you feel about Trump pardoning 1,500 domestic terrorists. who tried to overthrow the government and attacked law-enforcement personnel while threatening to hang the vice-president?

Defenders of Trump can't stop lying. It's the only way the good little Nazis can even live with themselves. I wonder how many in his administration will be thrown in jail this time? Maybe he can beat his first-term record.

Our country hit a new low today. Such a hateful speech. Time to take a rain check.

The left has no moral authority. Given Biden's abuse of the pardon power, you have no room to complain.

Ok, my point is that the average person, less than 50 percent who voted, did not vote for Trump, yet you say the average person didn't believe the poll that had Trump rated as the worst. I would also say the average person did not vote for Clinton, less than 1/2 of the voters did vote for him and over 1/2 did not.

The left misses the point. They always have their hands in someone else's pockets to get someone else's wallet.

Did Trump pardon his family? Biden has issued over 8,000 pardons. Wrap your head around that. Far more than all other Presidents combined. Disgraceful abuse of pardon authority. Yet, ok by you. Let's get back to beating on Trump over J6 folks.

You folks have lost all reason.

Are these non-partisan historians and political experts? Are they completely devoid of unreasonable hatred? Suspect they are in the same vein as the 51 security "experts" who deemed the Hunter Biden laptop as likely Russian disinformation immediately prior to the final Presidential debate in 2020 when the FBI had already authenticated it as Hunter's. (Oh, but they kept mum.)

Average folks see this for what it is, a rating devoid of credibility. They lived through the first Trump term and found it far superior to what they got under Biden. They told us that November 5th last year.

50.2% of the voters did not vote for Trump, yet you say "average folks see this for what it is . . ."
You must have a different definition of "average" than most do.

Loke Mooney, posting a pick on this board is a jinx.

This political hack that wrote the opinion piece should have presented what real evidence that he claims to have to the department of justice investigators or Comey and Jordan, who have investigated Biden for over 5 years and found nothing. But just like you, I'm sure this guy is a real investigator who knows more than anyone else. Please provide your evidence that millions of dollars were paid to the Bidens or stop lying.

Unless something miraculous happens (again) this season we are looking at one NCAA tournament trip in the past 14 seasons. How much further does that need to slide before you admit the possibility that the billboard guys were right? 1 in 20? 1 in 25?

If you actually answer that question and not avoid it then we can start talking about our record against VCU.

Wow. 1 in 14 seems to be good enough. Admin more than happy with it and supports this as do $ guys. If they didn't support, they'd have had the sense to do something about that. Certainly can't expect much more than status quo.
