Wow, can't even have a dissenting opinion on a sport around here. I played soccer in high school. I was even pretty good at it but I hated it. But the school was small, VERY small so if you had athletic ability you'd be a right dick to not contribute. So I did. We'd show up to games with 11-12 players. I could run for days back then.
I also played lacrosse in the spring. That was great fun. I suggest you have a look if you're not familiar with the game. It originated with American Indians over 600 years ago.
Yes but it is not the "soccer" genuine form we're refering to :p
But this (applied to political views / stance):

I also hated football in my school days, and I was bad at it. I've always been bad at any game involving a ball, or indeed any flying object. Probably in part something to do with my lack of stereo vision, which puts me at a disadvantage, although I didn't realise it until I got much older. But in the afternoons every kid in the neighbourhood would be on the field (which was maybe all of 40 metres from our house), so in those days it was often play football or play alone.
Fast forward to my university years, when I joined a group of people who'd gather every Saturday for a game of football, and I absolutely loved it. I was just as bad as ever, but for the first time, it was fun. I've no idea why I had this change of heart, but I was genuinely surprised at myself.
Anyway, I find watching football mostly boring, although I don't think that more goals would make it more enjoyable for me. I certainly wouldn't enjoy a game where everybody stands around for 5 hours waiting for a guy to throw a ball, and for another guy to hit it with a stick. Or watching a bunch of guys skating wildly around the rink, always wondering where the fuck the puck is. Or guys cracking their skulls together so everybody dies of brain injury at 35. Or guys dunking 100 points a minute so that keeping the score gets as exciting as counting my XPs in World of Warcraft.
I guess I just don't like to watch sports.

Lord Dampnut plans to send more troops to Syria to protect what's most important to the US -- Syrian oil:

President Trump has identified Syria's oil as a U.S. national security priority and has committed to deploying troops to protect the country's reserves even as he pulls troops from Syria's northern regions. U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper said this week that the U.S. will send in troops to protect Syrian oil fields from Islamic State militants.
Trump has faced heated criticism from both Republicans and Democrats, who have accused the president of abandoning an American ally by pulling troops from the Syrian-Turkish border region. The withdrawal cleared the way for a Turkish military operation against the Kurds, U.S. allies in the fight against the so-called Islamic State, or ISIS.
“The oil is so valuable, for many reasons,” Trump said on Sunday. “It fueled ISIS, number one. Number two, it helps the Kurds - because it's basically been taken away from the Kurds... And, number three, it can help us, because we should be able to take some also.”
Trump made the comments while announcing the death of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdad following a U.S. military raid in Syria.
In a press conference that followed, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina supported President Trump's focus on Syrian oil, when a reporter asked by what “legal right in international law” the U.S. could take Syrian oil.
“This was the chief source of revenue for a long time for ISIS,” Graham said. “It is now in the hands of Syrian Democratic Forces, which are Arabic Kurds, mostly Kurds, with the partnership with the United States. So, no this doesn't violate any law. In my view, what it does is just good common sense foreign policy.”

Read the PDF. Any commentary I could make would only detract from what's in there.
This is nearly 300 pages of heavily redacted documents from 25 years ago. There's nothing in the first few pages to indicate that this mass of documents is even remotely related to the subject matter of this thread, and nothing at all in your post. Why are you posting this here? What relevance does it have to anything being discussed here?

It's the implications, man. Read between the lines.

I thought it was time to bring some fair and balanced coverage to this lefty-luv fest.

This is the reason why you don't want the president directly interfering with the DoJ, even if it is officially under his purview.
Has Barr's investigation uncovered certain criminal misdeeds by those responsible for the Russia probe? It's very possible. Though with Barr having previously shown himself to be primarily concerned with protecting Trump's interests, it's hard to tell if this is a legitimate investigation, or a political play to distract from the ensuing impeachment hearings.
Hell, it could be both, EVERYONE'S broken the law at some point, and now they're all trying to point fingers at each other to distract from their own crimes.
Just, uh, pick whatever flavor of scandal you prefer, I guess.

If there's some factual basis for the investigation (which is required by DOJ rules, as far as I understand it), I'd love to see it.
