The commercials have become so prolific on the site

that they are overwhelming the ability of my DSL to handle the traffic. They are now popping up over text to prevent even the reading of posts. All of this started in the last few days. Any suggestions? I don't mind donating to the site, but I was even unable to do that because everything was slowed down so much. It took several attempts of rebooting and getting on in order to post this thread before the band width was overwhelmed.

Edit: I am not having similar problems on any other sites...

Florida governor pushes to have a full college football season

Two hours after the Big 10 and the PAC suspend season, and few hours after Florida set a new single day death record. What could possibly go wrong?

After reading Mary Trump's book

I am longing for an add showing Trump with a bowl of mashed potatoes dumped on his head. I am sure that would make the President very happy.....

He got better!

With a little luck, this man will survive and be displaying his death certificate, on the wall of his study in his new mansion on Panama City Beach. I bet that shyster attorneys all over the country are beating a path to his door.

Plausible deniability

Is the reason for the blacked-out Republican National Convention. The delegates, voting for Trump, wish to remain anonymous.

Peaceful protest?

From NPR

With COVID-19 cases going up in places key to his reelection and his poll numbers in those same places going down, President Trump has been boxed in to shifting course.

Let's recap. This week, as NPR's Ayesha Rascoe recounted on NPR's Morning Edition Friday, Trump:

Endorsed wearing masks, calling it "patriotic" after resisting wearing them publicly for months.
Acknowledged that the pandemic will likely get worse before it gets better after months of dismissing its seriousness.
Backed away from his insistence that schools reopen this fall, having previously threatened to pull what small federal funding schools receive.
Canceled the in-person Republican National Convention that was supposed to take place in Jacksonville, Fla., after lambasting North Carolina's governor for not being able to guarantee that an in-person convention could be allowed to take place in his state by August. And though Trump made fun of Democrats for planning a virtual convention, the GOP convention will now be largely virtual, too.


I wonder if anyone remembers the famous "flip-flop" advertising campaign......Of course, that was then, this is now.....

DeSantis proclaims

that the rise in cases and deaths in Florida is not because of Florida mishandling the health crisis, it is just seasonal........

Yea, right, flu viruses are known to propagate wildly in the hottest time of the year.....

Face it Ron, you blew this by following your President who also blew it. After this election, the people of Florida need to begin a campaign to impeach the Fascist bastard. We can't afford two more years of DeSantis.

So Trump plans to send as many as 75,000 Brown shirts

to cities lead by liberal Democrats. Trump's Idea of dealing with shit is to stir it. Hopefully they can stay through November in these cities to maintain security at polling places.......

Affected cities should shut off utilities to Federal buildings.

The Fascist bastard just can't go quick enough.
