Well, I'm glad we're not "weaponizing" the Department of Justice anymore.

We finally got above freezing in Seattle. I was tired of the it. Now it's raining and 43... which might be worse actually.

If I remember correctly, there was a beat with two cubs in the area. People think she might have abandoned one because it was too hard taking care of two.
I was only 7 or 8, so the details are hazy!!!

I think this is exactly what he wants. He wants people to stop paying attention.
I understand not wanting the doom and gloom, but we also need to pay attention. And if someone is paying attention, it is frightening.

I love these words and the cool photo. I don't know what the cement sculpture thing is called, but it surrounded by nature and you holding the flame is...is...I just really like it!

I was 7! A cub was on it's own near our cabin in Greenwater, WA. I was riding my bike on a dirt road near our place.
They captured him and put him out in the wild some where.

This is him admitting that he rigged the election. He always accused others of what he had done or will do.

Lots of free throws at the end. Usually it's all of the reviews. There were a couple of those, but this game it wasn't the culprit.

If the war lasts less than 2 or 3 days AND is in your country, this might work. But anything longer or on foreign soil needs LOTS of bureaucracy.
Was World War 2, Vietnam, or both, where only 1 in 10 soldiers were in combat.

Ouch! What bone did you break?
My nephew had screws and a rod in his leg and they hurt for months, but I think it was the rod that caused the pain.

Well, the game was on Fox. It also runs Fox News. Would have been interesting to know what the other broadcasters would have done.

Yes. I'm wondering if a court case was ever put together. Things like voting sites per capita would be interesting. Or even, where in the voting district is the polling station. How far is it from public transportation...

As a classroom teacher, I started focusing on saving rather than spending. Threw the whole US economy off.

Has anyone compiled the evidence of this. When the Voting Rights Act was repealed, conservatives stated that voters fraud and suppression needed to be challenged in the courts.

Why do you need one? Isn't it better to find your black coat in the closet amongst the other 8 black coats no one in the house uses?

There is a Rosemary plant in my yard. I often go out and get fresh rosemary.
That is one of the leaves.
I mean, what else would it be?

Is he setting a screen or defending? I can't tell.

That's a pretty amazing wage though. 13 million a year? I would do that for one year and you could trade me 4 times... I wouldn't care.
I think we have very different definitions of wage earner.

Liberal jab?
I just pointed out that he has received many personal benefits that slaves never had.
Also, the video of Reagan was him speaking against tariffs as an economic policy.

He chose to be an NBA player. Slaves had no choice.
He also could buy my house outright with about 1/7 of his pay AFTER taxes.
He can quit playing hoops at any time.
And for quite a few years he received a free education.

Let me get this straight. We are to believe DOGE:
1. hss no access to how money is dispersed or who gets it AND
2. Will be able to determine if the money is being wasted.
In order to do #2, you have to have #1.

Costco has a very high retention rate of employees. This means:
1. Much smaller HR departments.
2. Little time wasted hiring new employees.
3. Very little training needed.
4. With experienced, happy employees, there is little need for middle management.
