The first flight from Pasco takes off at 5:30 a.m. and lands in Elko after 6 hours with a cargo of souvenirs, including Idaho potatoes. The pilot making the first flight from Elko runs out of fuel over Oregon, lands safely on a muddy field and borrows a horse to ride 65 miles for assistance. 2/2

Trump Tweet from 2013

Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!

I'm seeing a lot of "Donald Trump is crazy." "He has lost it." That is comforting. I'm not sure it's true. The more difficult thing to contemplate is: He has views. He has ambitions. He is on a side, in the general world struggle. And he has no end of followers and defenders.

On Nov. 28, a Russian attack lasting more than 10 hours struck Ukrainian cities, with Kyiv as the main target. The Kyiv Independent’s Nick Allard and Tania Myronyshena spent the night with a Kyiv family sheltering in a parking garage with their three children.

#FlashbackFriday Ok online detectives, we need your help. A visitor recently passed on these images of the Endeavour replica taken by her father. We think the photos were taken in NZ in 1996, but we are not sure which port. Can anyone help identify the location or share memories from that voyage?

Innen IT har vi begrepet "teknisk gjeld" som beskriver kostnadene ved underinvestering i vedlikehold, god praksis og fornyelse. Jeg synes også vi kan snakke om "politisk gjeld", kostnadene et samfunn etterhvert bærer fordi vi har redusert mediehusene fra institusjoner til "innholdsprodusenter".

The US record on protecting Afghans who helped our military in that war has been pretty weak to begin with, but now we are deporting them to a very credible risk of death. Why would any other allies on the ground work with the US military in the future?

Like, I realize the media is in the midst of talking about the 'failure' to talk about how old Biden was, a thing every voter seems to have known about by the time he dropped out. But maybe we should talk about the failure to inform voters on what Trump's actual promised policies would be?

Trump wants to fire 83k VA workers, many of whom are veterans themselves, decimating the VA & making it harder for veterans to get health care & benefits. When Americans put their lives on the line to defend our country, we must keep our commitments to them — not betray them.
