"Hopefully, we can all as a league learn and grow from this.
Hopefully, it puts people on notice who have some of those
same bigoted opinions. Like: 'Hey man, it's time to grow and evolve
and change and connect.' That sh*t doesn't fly."

"I can say with real honesty and pride that I don't feel like those
are opinions that are shared by players," the 37-year-old said.
"I feel like in the locker room it's a close-knit group of guys,
and we don't treat people differently based on the way that they
talk, where they're from, what they're into, what they look like,
and I'm proud of that."

in the least         like many i used to think he was a good guy      

This looks serious.

It should be at least.

It should be at least.

It should be at least.

If true, then he should be held accountable... in cuomos case... I do believe some are real while some jumped on in hopes of a payday...DeShawn watson.. same thing... 

Republican patriot Gen. Colin Powell,
first Black US secretary of state,
denounced trump and trumpism,
dies at 84

He was a very good man.   He rejected trumpism.      RIP General

most anyone who rejects trumpism is a good person

"From his front-seat view of history, advising presidents
and shaping our nation’s policies, Colin led with his personal
commitment to the democratic values that make our country
strong. Time and again, he put country before self, before party,
before all else – in uniform and out – and it earned him
the universal respect of the American people."

                                            - President Joe Biden, about republican Colin Powell

Powell was a very good man and highly respected by most Americans.

We need more like him.

so bcuz he is respected way more than chump   guess what ?  chump attacks and demeans him moments aftyer his death with derogatory remarks

he did the same to john mccain too

America isn't running out of everything
just because of a supply-chain crisis.
America is running out of everything
because Americans are buying so much stuff!

BUSINESS INSIDER (via Yahoo News)

Americans are buying everything they can get their hands on, and they'd be
buying even more if it weren't for those pesky supply-chain snarls,
the National Retail Federation said.

"Spending might have been higher if not for shortages of items consumers
are eager to purchase," Jack Kleinhenz, the NRF's chief economist,
said in a statement issued on Friday.

cont ...

Those shortages seem so ubiquitous that the term "everything shortage"
is now being used liberally to describe consumers' frustration as they try
to get goods of all sorts: paper towels, milk, toys, and more.

*Note  from ECONOMICS 101: "Supply and Demand"
This is a private sector deal, NOT GOVERNMENT.

There is no BLAME to demand/supply....unless you choose to blame consumers themselves.

When there is a sudden increase in DEMAND by consumers of private sector goods,
the initial supply to that demand is LOW,

...and as a result prices go UP!

That's the largest portion of inflation.

Those who blame the federal government for a private-sector
supply and demand chain are likely partisan-motivated

Yep, no partisan motivations from you right FUPA   

Love the economics lesson you provided for us as well....so simple even a grade schooler could understand....which is right on par with the understanding of economics in this sub....

I'm sure the $120 BILLION per MONTH that has been been injected into the economy by our Federal government had nothing to do with what you so eloquently explained above.  Ignorance is bliss huh.  

Blitz 

consumer demand at alltime highs due to recovery from worst of the chump-pandemic  and he says spending on consumer items would have been even higher if not for shortages .  so the bottleneck of supply and shipping  and distribution would have been much worse than it is now

Yes.  It's almost like "the perfect storm" hit. 

Slow, erratic economic activity due largely to the previous administration, set everything in motion from early 2020 through to today.

Like your party, you have no clue what is going on..

Money printer goes brrrrr (FEDERAL GOVT)

PRICES GO BRRRRRR because there's "free money" floating around so why wouldn't prices raise?

Money printer goes brrrr because fed gov't wastes money and has an outrageous budget "you have to spend it, or you lose it" = waste to the extreme (only benefits those that are collecting from the work being done, most of which is not needed but the money has to be spent each year).

CONSUMER DEBT IS HITTING ALL TIME HIGHS. That is scary. When people default, what happens?! So if "there's work shortages and people aren't working" HOW THE HELL ARE THEY STILL SPENDING MONEY?! 

Increasing prices is a mixture of high demand and free money floating around. Of course when the gov't give you hands outs of "free" money, people are going to consume and spend it because they have extra cash. So demand increases, supply decreases and prices rise. Now "blame shortages on covid" (seems like the govt is now going to back track this statement that we've been hearing for over a year now) also justify supply being low because "nobody is working" so now inflation is trying to be justified by the gov't who's now trying to not take blame. IF BUSINESSES NEVER SHUT DOWN, GOVT DIDN'T HAND OUT MONEY, PEOPLE CONTINUED TO WORK AND PRODUCE, we wouldn't be in this position of inflation boarding on hyperinflation or stagflation.

Gov't now trying to blame consumers for inflation is a complete joke and anyone who believes that needs to wake up. If you believe that, you probably also believe the Trillion dollar coin is going to save the economy, because it's "a trillion dollars".

Also banks are sitting on trillions of dollars and they need people to borrow, to consume which drives demand. BANKS HAVE CASH BECAUSE THE MONEY PRINTER WENT BRRRRR AND CASH IS A LIABILITY TO BANKS. So banks offer low rates, push people to open credit cards to borrow and spend. Mind you that people lost their jobs, they lost their savings, they lost that careers because of vaccine mandates so people are forced into more debt from borrowing. 

INFLATION IS A DIRECT RESULT OF SHUTTING DOWN BUSINESSES FOR A YEAR.

Slow, erratic economic activity due largely to DEMOCRATS SHUTTING BUSINESSES DOWN, set everything in motion from early 2020 through to today

There, fixed it for you. REMEMBER DEMOCRATS FORCED BUSINESSES TO CLOSE THAT FUNNELED TRILLIONS FROM THE LOWER AND MIDDLE CLASS TO THE 1%. Why do you think major businesses LEFT BLUE STATES TO WORK IN RED STATES?! Because blue states are actively trying to destroy businesses and businesses are running from blue states in record numbers to work in red states where employment and growth is welcomed and not taxed to death.
