She would vomit on Mike Johnson’s floor to end the government shutdown. What is your candidate’s plan?

I can’t tell where the second agent’s right hand is. My colleague was stopped at another Home Depot as a suspected illegal. He said the scariest part was one agent staring him down with his hand on his weapon. Not drawn, but totally unnecessary. A US citizen no less

The problem with the process is that was an almost overlooked concern. Instead we discussed what kind of food is “compatible” with our neighborhood character wink-wink and accusations that Popeyes and the City were engaged in some closed door conspiracy.

The problem is this is a special use so it is not within the bounds of the law without approval. The traffic consequences are very real (I lived on that block for 20 years) with Popeyes alone, nevermind the other tenants they would lease the remaining space to

Yes. Boneheaded and uncalled for. I do not question Buddhism as a religion. I do not question the church lady's personal conviction to her faith. Those are not words I would ever use. I do not research a sixty page report of facts then start calling people names. The facts will speak for themselves

Last week she said it was religious persecution because of being Buddhist, like if I found out it was a Catholic Church I would have not reported it. Reporting is a protected right. In fact the IRS form I used was created specifically for reporting these cases. Religions aren’t immune to scrutiny

No, a PhD entitles the holder to be correct on all things without facts

What are you using to crunch your numbers? Python and Jupyter?

Is that a Buddhist temple behind you?

Thank you. I am always trying to improve so I can do better in the future. Where do you think I went wrong? I questioned an assertion made on a policy, investigated the facts, and reported what I found. Which one was the despicable part? Was it questioning, investigating, or reporting?

Buddhism is pathetic? Don't you think you have taken it too far?

I didn't understand how Heartwood could be both on the verge of closing and able to buy a commercial property so I checked public records and discovered fraud. If that meets your definition of punishment I accept the charge. I probably should have minded my own business

If you read the full complaint Abughazaleh is not mentioned until like page 5. I am not accusing her of any wrong doing

A woo-woo midwifery, physical therapy, counseling center is not a religion. Claiming it is one is fraud. It might also be appropriation and offensive to the Buddhist religion

Neither. I wondered how a nonprofit could be on the verge of failing because of fried chicken smells, but have enough capital to buy a commercial lot. That didn’t add up so I tried looking up their financials. Thats when I discovered they are a “church” for tax purposes but not in activity
