Trump bellowed to his supporters on Saturday that "If these radical, vicious, racist prosecutors do anything wrong or illegal, I hope we are going to have in this country the biggest protest we have ever had." I think Trump is saying 2 things - stop the investigation and if you are charged I will pardon you. I added a link to more info and the part about his business dealings is half way down the page.

It’s the same way when I have used sleeping bags; I zip myself in completely. Not only that, but I can do either of these (sleep with blankets covering my face and head or zipped into a sleeping bag) for extended periods of time, up to and including the whole night. I do not have a problem breathing that way, nor am I claustrophobic. No one else I’ve known has ever been able to do it for more than a few minutes at a time, and everyone marvels that they don’t see how I can do it without suffocating.

The link shown above refers to some type of blockage that blocked up AnswerMug and kept many members from being able to access the website. My post below is one aspect of what I believe to have some connection to the outage. The two events took place too close to each other to be random and unconnected. For approximately the past 12 hours, whenever I click on one of my Notifications here that takes me to an answer or a comment or a Like that someone has left for me, that same notification repeats several times, as many as 5 or 6 times, even though prior to the outage, a site moderator recently stated that multiple instances of the same notification does do not occur or only occurs based on how a member has his or her settings arranged.

More than 150 people charged with assaulting police officers, more than 50 charged with conspiracy, and charges of seditious conspiracy against the founder and leader of the far-right Oath Keepers militia group, and 10 other members or associates. I think that it is awful that Trump would pardon them and I think by saying he will decreased his chances of winning/ Cheers! less

Ilhan Omar owes more than 15k. According to their financial disclosures, several other representatives also have significant student loan debt.A group of legislators has asked President Biden to cancel up to 50k in student loans per borrower through executive action. The president has balked at taking such a step, despite requesting a US Department of Education memo legally justifying it.I've repaid my student loans. Have you? less

There might be 59 Republicans behind the fake electors. Forgery of a public record is a 14-year offense so I think a lot of those Republicans will spill the beans on Trump and his inner circle. Cheers and happy weekend!

Part of the reason for that is the farmers are starting to get back the customers they lost because of Trumps trade wars. I will add a link to more info.

The only thing contestants win are various size bags of rice. Losers go to a farm labor camp for a year. Wait...that's what most North Koreans already do...farm labor.

All my life, I’ve been a slow eater. It’s not uncommon when I’m eating something at the same time as others that I often finish last. This is true whether or not it’s one other person or many other people, and the type or kind of food hardly matters either, and sometimes even non-comparative portion sizes make little difference. It’s not an intentional nor conscious act on my part.~
Some people get so angry, they changes lanes, floor it, and speed to the light, slamming on their brakes. Then I slowly cruise along side, look over and give them a smile.

Her vast intelligence spans so many subjects and categories of knowledge that it seemed impossible to land on one that she does not know well. She was adept at sprinting far ahead of the other contestants to continuous runaway games that ensured her final victories. Last night, however, was the first time in a long time that she did not get all three of the Daily Doubles, and the first time that she did not have a runaway at the end of Double Jeopardy. She still had an opportunity to win the game, though.
The Final Jeopardy answer was (paraphrased), “This is the only country in the world that its name in English ends in an h, and it’s one of the top ten most populous ones.” What is Bangladesh?
