Women will know that American men are ready to vote for a female President when American men stop claiming that successful women slept their way to the top and it's not just the men that seek to destroy rivals with that claim

I’m told by a lawmaker who witnessed it, though, that Waters and Pelosi also had a robust conversation on the House floor about how a Biden succession plan would be handled (the former speaker had indicated she wanted an open process, but it’s no secret Pelosi isn’t a KHive denizen, as Brown said with a long laugh: “I’m not sure she had any particular candidate in mind but I’m sure it would not have been Kamala!”)

Here's a screen print of what they did to Tammy
Six months before their 1991 wedding, Karla stole the anesthetic agent halothane from the animal clinic. On December 23, 1990, Bernardo and Karla administered sleeping pills to 15-year-old Tammy in a rum-and-eggnog cocktail. When Tammy lost consciousness, the couple undressed her and Karla applied a halothane-soaked cloth to her sister's nose and mouth. Karla wanted to "give Tammy's virginity to Bernardo for Christmas"; according to her, Bernardo was disappointed that he was not Karla's first sex partner. With Tammy's parents sleeping upstairs, the couple videotaped themselves raping Tammy in the basement. Tammy began to choke on vomit; they tried to revive her and called 9-1-1 after hiding evidence, dressing Tammy and moving her into her bedroom. A few hours later, Tammy was pronounced dead at St. Catharines General Hospital without regaining consciousness.[17] Despite being observed vacuuming and washing laundry in the middle of the night,[15] and despite a chemical burn on Tammy's face, the municipal coroner and Karla's family accepted Bernardo and Karla's version of events.[15] The official cause of Tammy's death was ruled accidental, the result of choking on vomit after consumption of alcohol. After Tammy's death, Bernardo and Karla videotaped themselves engaging in sexual intercourse, with Karla wearing Tammy's clothing and pretending to be her. The couple moved out of the Homolka household to a rented bungalow in Port Dalhousie soon afterward.[18] During Tammy's funeral, witnesses saw Bernardo caressing her body in its open casket. Inside the casket, Bernardo and Karla placed a copy of their wedding invitation, which showed a photo of the couple grinning, along with a note. These items were discovered when Tammy's body was exhumed three years later and were removed at the request of Karla's family.[19]

Screen Print because things tend to disappear on CNN
President Donald Trump lashed out at congressional Democrats — and some “weak Republicans” — Friday over the push to release the Jeffrey Epstein files, criticizing those Republicans as “soft and foolish” for backing the effort. “The Democrats are doing everything in their withering power to push the Epstein Hoax again, despite the DOJ releasing 50,000 pages of documents, in order to deflect from all of their bad policies and losses, especially the SHUTDOWN EMBARRASSMENT, where their party is in total disarray, and has no idea what to do,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Some Weak Republicans have fallen into their clutches because they are soft and foolish,” Trump added.

Yes. When you reference foreclosures with property developments you find correlation
"The fact that they did not foreclose on their home in 2008 may have been because they were able to avoid job loss, or could rely on greater financial support"
libertystreeteconomics.newyorkfed.org/2024/05/how-...
We next consider whether foreclosed borrowers were able to get another mortgage. There is some evidence of financial life cycles driving the return to homeownership, which we define here as the presence of a mortgage on the credit report. For the youngest borrowers—those who were under 30 at their time of foreclosure—a sizeable share has returned to owning a home, although their homeownership rates remain far below those of their peers, as illustrated in the upper panels of the chart below. For older borrowers, the picture is somewhat different: the borrowers who experienced foreclosure see a reduction in homeownership following the foreclosure sequence (but not to zero as many that were foreclosed on had multiple mortgages). However, there is very little pickup in the following years. By contrast, their peers, shown in the dotted gold and red lines in the bottom right panel of chart below, show a gradual reduction in this measure of homeownership, suggesting some combination of a payoff or an exit from homeownership

Democratic Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva will be sworn in seven weeks after she won the special election

www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
One issue he plans to confront immediately Wednesday, before the first House votes, is swearing in Democratic Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva seven weeks after she won the special election to fill her late father’s Arizona House seat, according to five people granted anonymity to discuss his plans ahead of an official announcement. But that in turn will jump-start another long-running GOP political hassle: Grijalva says she will be the 218th and decisive signature on a discharge petition to compel the release of the “Epstein files” — records held by the Justice Department that Trump has opposed sharing. That will start a cascade of legislative steps requiring the measure to be brought to the floor by early December

With a 50 year mortgage, most people would not have any equity in their home. Unless the value of the house skyrocketed, they could easily end up selling their home for less than they bought it for and still owe money to the mortgage company after they sold the home

www.cnn.com/2025/11/11/b...
Take a $450,000 home, for example. With a 30-year fixed mortgage at a 6.25% interest rate, the monthly payment would be about $2,771. Over the life of that loan, the homeowner would pay more than $547,000 in interest. With a 50-year loan at the same rate, the monthly payment would fall to around $2,452 – but total interest would balloon to about $1.02 million, or 87% more than on the 30-year loan. “With a 50-year loan, you’re paying a teeny, tiny amount to your principal loan early on, so your interest payments are not going down very much,” Green said. “It depends on what the interest rate is, but it could be like 30 or 40 years before you’ve even paid half your mortgage (principal) under those circumstances.”

In the 19th century, European settlers hunted bison almost to extinction. Fewer than 100 remained in the wild by the late 1880s.[70] Unlike Indigenous practices, where hunters took only what was needed and used the whole animal, these settlers hunted them en masse for only their skins and tongues and left the rest of the animal behind to decay on the ground.[71] After the animals rotted, their bones were collected and shipped back east in large quantities.[71]

The First Nations are solving their own housing problems and other's housing problems now that we have our land back and the Supreme Court of Canada has ruled that we can build anything that we want on the land

www.cbc.ca/radio/costof...
Josh Wong, a realtor who sells homes across Vancouver, Burnaby and Coquitlam, says leasehold developments — especially those on First Nations land — are steadily growing in number and popularity. He says they give buyers access to desirable neighbourhoods they might otherwise not have been able to afford. In kʷasən Village, a housing development by the Musqueam Indian Band and Tsleil-Waututh Nation within the city of Burnaby, homes are selling for less than $1,000 per square foot, compared to $1,200 to $1,300 for similar freehold homes nearby.

"After an intervention by his mother, the Queen, and his older brother, Prince Charles, Andrew last week announced he would “step back from public duties for the foreseeable future”"

Andrew being a Prince after being removed as a "Working Royal" is the Queen

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019...
Andrew’s withdrawal from public life coincides with Charles’s wish for a more streamlined and cost-effective monarchy when he becomes king. Sources close to the Prince of Wales, who is on an official visit to the Solomon Islands, denied reports that he was “angry and frustrated” by the publicity his younger brother was attracting. It was also reported that the Queen has cancelled a planned 60th birthday party for Andrew in February and has downsized it to a small family gathering. Buckingham Palace declined to comment.

Here's a marked up picture showing why they are "Go Fast" boats and NOT a fishing boat
It's pretty easy to identify an "Go Fast". They are vastly over powered like this boat with 900 HP and they have bracing to enable them to travel fast without the hull collapsing

This is why China has so much of the metals market world wide

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...
What is not generally known is that China, during the past 40 years, has created a vice-like grip on the mining, refining and production of global metals. It is not just nickel, lithium, graphite and cobalt — the materials essential for battery production and the renewable energy age — where it holds the rest of the world in its palm. It is also the world's biggest producer of steel, dominates aluminium smelting and production, and has an outsized influence on copper.

Renata Ford didn't want to understand that it takes at least 2 years to probate an estate and that in any case the amount that she would receive from the estate couldn't support a lifestyle that costs nearly 10 thousand a month

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Doug Ford has said his sister-in-law's allegations are "false" and "without merit" and he has no idea why she is making them. Toronto estate lawyer Joseph Gyverson said the premier may have a totally valid reason for not yet having paid out assets from his late brother's will. He pointed out that Renata Ford's 2017 family court application, only recently abandoned, stated that "no distribution of the estate can be made by the executor" until the case was resolved. "It could entirely excuse Doug Ford's supposed failure to distribute assets in a timely manner," Gyverson said.

He has also attempted to establish US type "Right to Work" laws

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_...
In early September 2012, while serving on the FedDev Ontario, Poilievre echoed then-Ontario MPP Randy Hillier's calls for ending workers' mandatory union payments.[62][63] When asked in 2012 if his advocacy was akin to right-to-work laws implemented in parts of the United States, Poilievre described it as an "enhancement of workers rights and freedoms".[64][65] In early 2013, both Poilievre, at the federal level, and Hillier, at the provincial level, called for greater transparency regarding union finances, citing the way in which the National Capital Region branch of the Public Service Alliance of Canada supported the Parti Québécois in the 2012 provincial elections, and how unions had supported student protests using union funds.[66][67] Poilievre wrote forcefully against the 1946 Rand formula used in Canadian labour law, which stems from a Supreme Court ruling that allows unions to collect mandatory dues from workers they represent.[68][69] Union supporters believed deprivation of mandatory dues would weaken unions.[70]

I call him Trump lite because he has implemented voter restriction laws when he was one of Harper's Cabinet
On February 4, 2014, Poilievre introduced Bill C-23, known as the Fair Elections Act, into the House of Commons, which was eventually passed.[78] Among other provisions, the bill expanded the types of acceptable personal identification for voting, and eliminated the vouching system, whereby a voter could vote without ID if a voter with ID vouched for their identity. The bill was opposed by former chief electoral officer Jean-Pierre Kingsley,[79] former auditor general Sheila Fraser,[80] and dozens of Canadian,[81] as well as international,[82] political experts — Poilievre stepped up his attacks on Marc Mayrand, the chief electoral officer of Elections Canada at the time, by accusing him of wanting "more power, a bigger budget and less accountability".[83]

BTW, If he did come back to work - knowing that he's all alone out there means that a situation where backup is needed to avoid shooting - is always going to involve him having to shoot to stay alive
The "investigation" was a White Wash and the Play Nice is actually an admission that it was racist
However, Bowden says the response lacked disciplinary measures for the officers involved, and they were not held accountable. He said the investigation was just "checking a box" in a bid to keep the controversy quiet. "My concerns were ignored. I was met with deflection and there was no solution given to me other than my return to work like nothing ever happened," he said. The town's return-to-work plan for Bowden involved the two other officers avoiding contact with him.

Hamas always takes video of their victories. CNN reports on what is being posted on Social Media

www.cnn.com/2025/10/14/m...
Reports of violence have been shared widely on social media channels, with one particularly gruesome video showing a group of masked fighters, some of whom are wearing green Hamas headbands, killing eight blindfolded people in a square in Gaza City while large crowds are watching, a possible sign of the brutality Hamas is using to reassert itself as the security force. CNN has verified the location where the video was filmed, the al Sabra neighborhood in western Gaza City, but it cannot independently confirm when the incident took place
