What better way to spent valuable time on a Sunday show a month before enormously consequential midterms than national political media demonstrating yet again how out of touch they are by continuing their relentless promotion of Emanuel’s presidential aspirations.

And after the election is stolen, prepare yourself for peaceful revolution. And when the Rubicon is crossed, as citizens are killed and brutalized at even larger scale by ICE, then what? Who is preparing us for this highly probable, almost inevitable, moment of reality? Voting is only the start.

Texas-based Dynamic Frontier Holdings, linked to Konstantin Sokolov, RU-US businessman who was a private donor to Trump’s $350M WH ballroom, received authorization from the Treasury Dep to complete an acquisition of Teghut, one of Armenia’s largest copper mines, involving sanctioned Russian bank.

How about Welker providing a forum for two candidates no one wants. Then she asks zero tough questions, even avoiding asking Questions about the Jack Smith hearing? Then yucking it up with Kennedy like he’s a welcome friend? Disgusting.

ETTD Another casualty of Trump's Administration. Trump has basically gutted the Us Forest Service and the fire management resources. Over half of the houses in Washington state are no longer insurable because of the fire danger. If you lose your house to fire, we are in a blue state, no FEMA.

This is a good list. The #1 biggest problem in Title IX is that there is no oversight and massive conflicts of interest. Schools can (and do) prioritize the institution over survivors, even when it requires breaking the law. Independent investigations would change that.

l've been a SA advocate for decades:
NEVER go to campus resources for a SA. Call a rape care hotline/program (off campus), get a SA advocate (they're free), go to a SART hospital for care (and evidence collection if you choose).
They activate the police. Schools have NO business in this process and will minimize and bury it. It's a criminal matter, not an administrative matter.
Period. No exceptions.

Rogers says he built Chrysler vehicles on an assembly line. Records show his work was at an aftermarket facility that modified vehicles after they left the factory.

Speaking as someone who wrote a book on the government’s Doomsday plans, one challenge: “Martial law” isn’t actually something that exists in the US in the way it exists in other countries. There are ways to nationalize or deploy troops, but “declaring martial law” isn’t some magic button to press.
