    Death by DeSantis

    That assumes there are parents at home, instead of a single mom working two or three jobs, or parents who are more interested in being drunk, high or seeking their next sex partner than they are raising their kids. And it assumes the parents themselves know how to cook, change a flat and balance...

    Death by DeSantis

    As a former financial planner, I too am glad to see this bill become law. The sad thing is that it was needed in the first place. Where are the parents? Why are not parents teaching their kids, both with instruction and by example, how to do basic money management? America is said to be one of...

    The Trump Card...

    "Slap down" and "busted" fall short. The judge clearly called out the attempted coup Trump and his cronies tried. An attempted coup against the United States, conducted by an utterly corrupt and then-seated president of the United States.

    Another Sign Trump is Losing His Influencer Grip "Former President Donald Trump's Georgia rally on Saturday failed to draw the number of supporters he has been accustomed to in the southern state, according to multiple journalists covering the event." (Source) Trump's response to these reports...

    The Trump Card...

    My thinking is he won't use his Truth Social site later for the same reason he is not using it now. I do not know what that reason is but one can reasonably ask, why isn't he using the site now? I'm not going to speculate on an answer. We simply don't know. But we do know he is silent on Truth...

    What makes you think Trump will start using the Truth Social site at all? He's not using it now. Why do you think he'll use it at all?

    The Trump Card...

    As I said above, their excuses are ringing hollow. They made sense early on but with no progress since, ... meh. And even if it was true that over one million people are on a waitlist, and even if it happened that "the floodgates" opened and they were all admitted, and even if it happened that...

    The Trump Card...

    The waitlist is meaningful only to those who trust the site and maintain hope. We have no way of knowing if the waitlist number is real or artificially inflated. Nowhere near that number report actually getting in. And those who are in report light traffic and zero participation by Trump...

    The Trump Card...

    And a massive flop, except for Trump himself who can walk away from this with a cool $1 billion in his pocket.

    The Trump Card...

    Usage is a pretty good indication of success or failure. Note this: "In early March 2022, multiple sources reported that Truth Social usage remained low, with Trump himself not having posted to his account since his first message two weeks earlier, with his account only having 140,000...

    The Trump Card...

    It's been months since Truth Social was first announced. Over $1 billion was raised to support the venture. Tech people were hired to make it happen. Months later ... NOTHING. I suggested earlier this might be a Trump scam in which lots of people give money to Trump with him not being obligated...

    The Trump Card...

    Or not. The truth may be there are no results because nobody cares about Truth Social any more. That story worked early on but no more. When they promise improvements and nothing happens, and the promise is made again, and nothing happens .... It seems Truth Social is dying for lack of...

    The Trump Card...

    Now only one week away from the end of March, we see this about Truth Social: When I Google-search for news about Truth Social, there is pretty much no news. Nothing. Nada. Silence. Is there news? Is anything positive happening with Truth Social? Is anything happening at all, or is this...

    The Future of the Republican Party and USA

    When time is of the essence, the distinction you draw is a distinction without a difference. Putin is days away from defeating Ukrainian democracy and installing authoritarian officials to run the country. He is advancing his troops at will and the West responds with sanctions, and the Russians...

    The Future of the Republican Party and USA

    History also seems to show that such megalomaniacs respond only to force. They do not respond to diplomacy. They do not stop on their own. They are constantly looking for every additional inch they can take and will take a mile if they can. I'm tired of watching Putin march happily along as we...

    The Future of the Republican Party and USA

    Regarding the future of the Republican Party and Trump's role in it, an important indicator is the Trump endorsements. If you do a Google News search of that term (Trump endorsements), you'll see a number of articles that show these may not be as important as people once thought them to be...

    What is the single-best thing you've done for your health on the road?

    Expediting and good health do not generally fit well together. Sleep: The first challenge is sleep. Experts recommend 8 hours of sleep per night on a regular schedule and they have volumes of science to back that up. But the expediter's life often requires irregular sleep. That does not...

    The Trump Card...

    Indeed it does. And investigators seem to be making increasingly rapid progress as some of those arrested plead guilty and flip to reduce the prison time they would otherwise receive. This leads to more evidence coming to light and convictions easier to obtain. It seems to be dawning on at least...

    Flynn was pardoned for crimes he was said to have committed. Accepting a pardon, which Flynn did, means he is guilty. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burdick_v._United_States
