God forgive me, but I have no faith in that statement whatsoever.

3 About as safe as anyone walking or driving around the place on a daily basis. A place whose crime stats are about as reliable as any deep blue enclave.

5 Wasserman is a Jewish name, he'll get the job done.
By 2028 everyone will realize the outcome of the defensive operation was a positive one for everyone but Hamas.

6 Casey Wasserman is a hotshot sports agent. His grandfather was Lew Wasserman, hotshot film and music talent agent and president of Universal Studios, friend of politicians from Ronald Reagan to Bill Clinton. Casey, like his grandfather, may be a liberal Democrat, but like his grandfather he is prqgmatic enough to work with politicians on both sides of the aisle to get things done. As Casey pointed out with regard to presidential involvement in the coming Olympics, “We live in a complicated world, and it can’t be all-or-nothing. Let’s not be confused. Other than Texas and Florida, [Trump] got more votes in California than any other state in the union. We can say what we want, but 47 other states had less votes for President Trump than California did.”

And yes, he is Jewish, and a fan of Bibi Netanyahu, which must make his life more interesting than he expected, nowadays.

I didn’t know any of this until looked him up just now in response to Jairong’s comment. My learning for today — thank you!

7 After that clown show which was the last olympics, both the opening show and the Team USA intro antics, not interested but for the lols. Snoop Lion is an honorary coach ffs, who will have to be extra gay after that interview about how his grandkid was a bit put off by a movie in which two women bore a child.
