Maybe mandate that the funding for HLS is contingent on adequate training for any and all agents, similar to police officers. A couple of months training is inadequate and they MUST pass mental fitness tests that screens for potential of racial profiling

Trump on Greenland: ‘Anything less’ than US control ‘unacceptable’. You know the saying about “Just say no?” Just say “no” to the U.S. occupying Greenland. Greenland has protective vaults for current and future world food/water security. If “he” invades that is a crime against humanity.

I just watched a video about the weather in 1880. It was the first time the word Blizzard was used to describe a winter storm. What got my attention was the note that the Fall had been unusually warm with temperatures in October nearly 80 with balmy mid 50s days before the storm.

Absolutely correct. But it has been more than Trump that did this. By himself he couldn’t have done as much damage.

I can think of many reasons to up our game to the moon. I would be thrilled if we tied with the China. Here are just an industry idea. Hazardous Waste Disposal such as things that need oxygen to catch on fire. Pretty safe to store it on the moon. www.space.com/space-explor...

Killing people, whether it is a political, racial or vengeful motive must stop. It doesn’t make things better, it makes things worse. My condolences to the family of the most recent high profile shooting and also to those still who have lost children as well as adults to gun violence.

I found out that yes indeed there is a flashing LED light that means the battery is not in good contact or the power supply is not working. It does flash green, then orange and believe it or not rainbow as part of the cascade effect of low power.

I have the author’s permission to post this. While largely directed at the Big Bill, this applies to ANY nation where this is going on, like North Korea, Iran, Columbia, Sudan, Gaza under Isreal, etc. ANY nation or state that subjugates, eradicates, and threatens their citizens and wars on others

So glad our nation’s people fighting against discrimination and injustice doesn’t stand alone in this world. Every threatened population has a roll in this!

So tariff threat now is for movies made outside the U.S. I think we now need to start doing Trump translate. What he really wants are more movies filmed in the US, thus regions or states that want movies made on location should give the companies on site tax breaks.

The difference between rich and poor is that wealthier people can afford to hire landscapers, maids, nannies, repairmen, house painters, etc. The lower middle class to upper poor cannot. They do the work themselves, hopefully with family help and good neighbors that understand too.
