He is not a very good Risk Player, unless there is a payday for him,family and friends.

Pretty sad that millions of people voted for a guy whose foreign policy expertise is limited to a game of Risk.

And Dabo is gone at Clemson.
And FSU still has Mike. Idiots

Clemson, Maryland, Baylor, NCST fire coaches with better records than Norvell. Something is rotten in Tally.
BREAKING: Clemson has fired head coach Dabo Swinney, @PeteNokos reports. Dabo is the winningest coach in Clemson history, he went 191-55 in 19 seasons.

Block, Guckian question Foulkes' Costco announcement. If Costco is good for R.I. why can’t Helena opponent say so. Leaders build support for common goals. There is plenty to criticize about Helena’s unrealistic and unworkable progressive positions providencejournal.com/story/…

There is no price too high to restore a winning culture.
This reminds me of The Core Theory (from The Big Short). A lot of people think the largest risk you inherit when you invest is that investment hitting $0 and losing 100% of investment. BUT the theory goes that it's actually riskier to sell too early and miss on highest ROI possible. Missing on chances to truly optimize a potential revenue booster for the university/city and surrounding businesses is far riskier to me than inheriting any financial risk of the unknown that comes with blowing it all up.

There has to be a conspiracy. Maryland, BAyLOR , NCST fired more successful HC’s than Norvell. All we hear from Tally is crickets. Can somebody please explain. Been a Nole since. 1960.
Dave Doreen has 7 more wins than Mike Norvell does over the last 3 seasons and he got fired. Do your job FSU

Maryland, Baylor , NCST looking for HC. FSU with worst record is sitting on their hands. Something stinks in Tally. Mediocrity forever.
So much for getting a "head start" in the 2026 Coaching Market FSU Admin. Get off your ass please!

So Maryland, Baylor, NCST fire coaches who had better results than Norvell, but Norvell still HC at FSU. Something smells in Tally.
Finally, someone at the Democrat publishes a piece about how the FSU admin is fumbling away Bobby's legacy.

I am shocked that Peter Collins & Jim Henry allowed this to run in the Democrat. Good piece.

Knee jerk liberal attack aid that ignores the facts. Unfortunately money in politics makes it possible to repeat things which may or may not have merit.

Losing his credibility in front of the world.
"Rubio’s speech lamenting Europe’s loss of fire, passion, and courage, omitted any mention of Ukraine—surely a shining modern-day example of fighting spirit and heroic sacrifice. Nor did it say a word about Russia’s campaign of sabotage and subversion." open.substack.com/pub/theunp…

See my Oped on leadership that appeared in the Providence Journal.
Leadership is job one for RI’s next governor. Something that has been missing at the State House for too long.

RI's problems are fixable. Leadership has been the missing ingredient. We cannot solve problems unless someone is working on the solutions. We cannot solve problems if our governor literally doesn't know what to do, or even how to think about it. We have a unique chance, right now, to elect a different type of governor. Someone dedicated to solving our toughest problems. No other candidate has proposed sweeping tax policy changes to remove the regressive taxes hidden in our utility bills. No other candidate has proposed truly out-of-the-box solutions like a regional health insurance marketplace or my "One Stay, One Bill" proposal, which would require hospitals to send a single bill within 30 days of discharge that covers every charge from every provider during that stay. No other candidate has proposed slowing our rush to meet a green energy goal that no other state comes close to matching, which could cost us up to a billion more than if we moved our goals to where other states have theirs. No other candidate, and certainly no other governor, has tackled poor educational outcomes in our state. Our government has been a reactive mess for decades. Everyone is feeling it - state workers, the public who has to interact with our government, taxpayers, businesses, and cities and towns. Our government has let hackers make off with the confidential information of more than half of us. They have thrown money at terrible proposals. They have failed to keep businesses here and made little progress in attracting new ones. Too many of our governors have not had what it takes. To compensate for their shortcomings, they hide behind the money and power wielded by RI's special interests. We have all seen the cost of special interest-driven policymaking. Look no further than the Washington Bridge. We can shake off our governmental stupor. Vote for real change. Vote to eject special interests from the governor's office and your checkbooks. Let's get this done. We are so close.

What is your take on each candidates vision for R.I.’s future?
I've started seeing the Really True Republicans in Rhode Island say that other Really True Republicans must back Ken Block because... he'll restore COLAs to public sector pensions. Oh, and he'll reduce the "bloated budget," too... somehow. Can't wait until this election is over.

Malpractice, what has RIGOP done recently to represent the interests of their candidates for statewide office?
Mail-in ballot signatures were certified today at BOE, and RIGOP sent NO representative. Again, NEGLECTING its duties to its base. Recall BOE chastised the party at the last hearing for not showing up. Here we are AGAIN. Many questionable signatures went unchallenged.

Don’t you agree a discussion of key issues by the 2 front runners would help voters?
Replying to @gssasse @TedNesi
Why does Block deserve that much deference? The policies he mentioned in the debate were ill-formed and sometimes ignorant. The biggest one for me was his suggestion that pension fund returns above the required annual average were "excess" and could be given away. That's a breathtaking amount of ignorance from a supposedly on-the-ball policy wonk who's been paying attention for 20 years. The Democrat gave a more independent answer than he did!

All good points. They should be ashamed
Replying to @gssasse
How is it not already destroyed?! They have a deadbeat dad/unemployed SSDI recipient for treasurer; a criminal defendant stoner for AG; a proud J6er Cuban agent for Congress. Most of the GA is running unopposed. There’s only one GOP mayor. The party is a joke.
