For a party claiming to be pro life, they sure are rushing to shut down essential health services and domestic and global programs that are saving literally thousands of lives annually. How millions can trust a party claiming to be pro life when they protect guns and shut down Medicaid is beyond me.

Banning scientists from publishing in widely recognized peer-reviewed high-impact journals, instead forcing them to publish in state-controlled research outlets. Show me one country in the world where this results in scientific rigor and gold standard research. Just one.

Harvard has produced more Supreme Court Justices than any other institution and consistently ranks at the top in constitutional law. Trump's lawyers, well... I don't see how his team has a realistic shot—Four Seasons Total Landscaping pressers notwithstanding.

‘O’clock’ is a contraction of ‘of the clock.' ‘Clock’ comes from the Medieval Latin ‘clocca’ (“bell”). Churches would ring bells to mark the passing hours. ‘Cloak’ also comes from ‘clocca’ as the garment takes a bell-like shape around the body when worn.
