Spam Update

I know everyone has seen we’re having a lot of bots posting spam lately. My view is different than yours so I still see all of the deleted threads when I’m scrolling. Everyone else’s view does not show any that have been deleted.

If you’re still seeing threads please report them so I can try to clean them. I’ve deleted well over 100 in the past 24 hours. It’s quite a bit of scrolling on my part, and easy to miss one or two, so any help is appreciated.

FOOTBALL Defensive End/Edge Rusher Preview

Shayne_Pickering
GoMiddle takes a look at what to expect from the exterior pass rushers this year. We expect the defensive end to be more so of a strongside end with their hand in the dirt and the edge to be more of an outside linebacker at this point. Everything will be wait and see in terms of how they use everyone, but this should give you an idea of the weapons they have to work with...

AN OPEN LETTER TO TRUMP SUPPORTERS

AN OPEN LETTER TO TRUMP SUPPORTERS

Ben Sasse

To my friends supporting Donald Trump:

The Trump coalition is broad and complicated, but I believe many Trump fans are well-meaning. I have spoken at length with many of you, both inside and outside Nebraska. You are rightly worried about our national direction. You ache about a crony-capitalist leadership class that is not urgent about tackling our crises. You are right to be angry.

I’m as frustrated and saddened as you are about what’s happening to our country. But I cannot support Donald Trump.

Please understand: I’m not an establishment Republican, and I will never support Hillary Clinton. I’m a movement conservative who was elected over the objections of the GOP establishment. My current answer for who I would support in a hypothetical matchup between Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton is: Neither of them. I sincerely hope we select one of the other GOP candidates, but if Donald Trump ends up as the GOP nominee, conservatives will need to find a third option.

Mr. Trump’s relentless focus is on dividing Americans, and on tearing down rather than building back up this glorious nation. Much like President Obama, he displays essentially no understanding of the fact that, in the American system, we have a constitutional system of checks and balances, with three separate but co-equal branches of government. And the task of public officials is to be public “servants.” The law is king, and the people are boss. But have you noticed how Mr. Trump uses the word “Reign” – like he thinks he’s running for King? It’s creepy, actually. Nebraskans are not looking for a king. We yearn instead for the recovery of a Constitutional Republic.

At this point in Nebraska discussions, many of you have immediately gotten practical: “Okay, fine, you think there are better choices than Trump. But you would certainly still vote for Trump over Clinton in a general election, right?”

Before I explain why my answer is “Neither of them,” let me correct some nonsense you might have heard on the internet of late.

WHY I RAN FOR SENATE

***No, I’m not a career politician. (I had never run for anything until being elected to the U.S. Senate fifteen months ago, and I ran precisely because I actually want to make America great again.)
***No, I’m not a lawyer who has never created a job. (I was a business guy before becoming a college president in my hometown.)
***No, I’m not part of the Establishment. (Sheesh, I had attack ads by the lobbyist class run against me while I was on a bus tour doing 16 months of townhalls across Nebraska. Why? Precisely because I was not the preferred candidate of Washington.)
***No, I’m not concerned about political job security. (The very first thing I did upon being sworn in in January 2015 was to introduce a constitutional amendment for term limits – this didn’t exactly endear me to my new colleagues.)
***No, I’m not for open borders. (The very first official trip I took in the Senate was to observe and condemn how laughably porous the Texas/Mexican border is. See 70 tweets from @bensasse in February 2015.)
***No, I’m not a “squishy,” feel-good, grow-government moderate. (I have the 4th most-conservative voting record in the Senate: [URL='https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.conservativereview.com%2Fmembers%2Fbenjamin-sasse%2F&h=cAQHVW_FLAQGVw4EsSEdTsautL3_8gzou93B8CaYKobI6wQ&enc=AZO9LiHiX_m4WP33qMHPFg9sRq92vFnTrQ0mKO3Uvibeo2ILahDcrv9WzImdc8mgwqh_mR2OwSAzw9Ez5xQu-VhfeI9scEgH7DYlSFAxED4HKqdwmow41FVS_Z7BJRJ5l2NK6DfhRLxFl0ZGsGFW4mdzxXWvXPYKfr0y0sTctMR5wRDyB5QQHfcHmERC2oAOM_g2WdEVY0PaOoXaDUp0Ia04&s=1']https://www.conservativereview.com/members/benjamin-sasse/ http://www.heritageactionscorecard.com/membe…/member/S001197 )[/URL]

In my very first speech to the Senate, I told my colleagues that “The people despise us all.” This institution needs to get to work, not on the lobbyists’ priorities, but on the people’s: [URL='https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FzQMoB4aUn04%3Ft%3D3m8s&h=TAQFuR8tXAQHso5spdvdHSkH7W1fsMlFnfh0zDtxYKlpR8Q&enc=AZOEhopJiDgJd0YW4H4h95L4U_jJVZsKL1Tjod7I_qWsqu-t545ZJEvLLr8G7uDsGOxzgp0SgVgh2rWy81d3ML--afaF6UBkbFMKE6fgtDffJKtMxRmgMvxUCA60YJ5e3ZWwcoj6lRiu2BjcoBJQIicIC1nGBhEFuQSfZXptD3pbKDzIxKftQHauEQuCpu9TMM2JSCJjOIPKIssQhgq8xnGU&s=1']https://youtu.be/zQMoB4aUn04?t=3m8s[/URL]

Now, to the question at hand: Will I pledge to vote for just any “Republican” nominee over Hillary Clinton?

Let’s begin by rejecting naïve purists: Politics has no angels. Politics is not about creating heaven on earth. Politics is simply about preserving a framework for ordered liberty – so that free people can find meaning and happiness not in politics but in their families, their neighborhoods, their work.
