Engineer, animal and nature lover. Don't bother me if you voted for Trump.
Yes indeed. Long term if not permanent constipation, an increase in digestive issues and other problems are being reported by Ozempic users while the drug and insurance companies downplay the effects.

They all have serious side effects that can affect users and the companies tend to gloss over because these drugs are literal gold mines for them. Plus the insurance companies see them as cheap alternatives for insulin and other treatments. So what if you get permanent constipation?

As a highway design engineer I've had classes on the ADA. Many cities have been ordered by courts to make streets accessible for the disabled, and some court orders have been extremely harsh depending on the level of neglect a city has been found guilty of.

Zelenskyy is bringing reinforcements to prevent a repeat of the browbeating he got from Trump the last time they met. Leaders of Italy, UK, Germany, Poland, Finland, France and the EU are coming with him for support. Trump won't be able to demand anything this time.

All this 23 year old kid is demonstrating is he is totally ignorant on his own nation's history.

You reward the aggressor, the aggression will never stop. Didn't Europe learn this from the 1938 "Peace in our Time" agreement?

The only good use for a floodplain is as a park or recreational area. No commercial buildings, no residences, no government buildings. Some things like water treatment plants need to be in areas like this but can be mitigated for.

If she exonerates Trump and is pardoned, everyone will know this was nothing but a quid pro quo. What about the victims who testified Trump was there? Why disregard their firsthand accounts? Maxwell is a liar; she lied on the stand and cannot be trusted to tell the truth.

Good riddance. If he was serious about helping my state of NC he'd resign right now.

They were a 'success' only because the bombers made it in and out and hit the targets. There's no way to know if the buried facilities were destroyed unless someone goes there and looks at it.

He is delusional if he thinks Iran will sit there and not retaliate. There are 40k US troops within range of Iranian rockets and missiles, not to mention warships plus they could mine the Strait of Hormuz and launch terror attacks against US interests.

What else are they? Iran hadn't attacked the US, and we don't have a mutual defense treaty with Israel. This was a direct attack that required Congressional approval, so yes it was illegal. Jeffries is worse than useless as a minority leader.

Trump called off an airstrike against Iran his first time in the WH with 10 minutes to spare after they fired missiles at our troops. I predict he'll milk the next two weeks for the most media attention, then back down at the last minute. TACO Trump will win out.

Trump has no authority to order the National Guard to the streets of LA unless Governor Newsome agrees to it. His Gestapo troops deliberately provoked the protesters by firing tear gas and flash/bang charges into the crowds, which started fires with their pyrotechnics.

Bessent is a billionaire Trump *ss kisser just like the rest of them are. He'll do what is best for him and the other billionaire pals of Trump and doesn't even understand what the rest of us will go through.

Garcia's wearing clean clothes and is in a hotel meeting with the Senator. Clearly they don't want VanHollen to see inside that prison and cleaned Garcia up before he met with the Senator.

A coworker went to a Lowes this weekend. He was told within two weeks everything in the store would be 50% higher in price, if it was there at all.
I got gas for my wife last week. Price was $2.89/gal. Got it today for my car at the same place. $3.05/gal. Same kind of gas. Are we winning yet?
