I just got a report that the Minneapolis VA has stopped hiring workers thanks to a hasty Trump Executive Order.
They’ve rescinded offers to dozens of people who were going to fill critical roles to care for vets.

Your annual reminder that Die Hard is not a Christmas movie. My main reasons:
— There are no real Christmas themes in the movie.
— It could take place anytime of year and the plot wouldn’t have been any different. A Christmas Story, for example, is centered around Ralphie’s gift.
