Well, just as everyone’s OK until it’s their ox being gored, everyone is quite convinced that their company or service really is necessary. Because they know in detail how it improves things.

Who would have thought NPR can be as bias as Fox. The CEO was in front of Congress recently, I wonder if NPR did a special on her testimony or did they tell you what to think. You should watch her complete testimony.Mr.Gill is a rising star of the GOP his interrogation of the CEO organization was a masterclass. Excuse me while we critique of NPR.

Yes, it means to get rid of, or "dump" Trump. In restaurant terms, it means to take an item off the availability list because the kitchen ran out of it. In 2020 the numbers were 86451103 (election day in 2020 was Nov 3). The only people who think "86" means to assassinate are those who would also consider "take care of" as having the same meaning. Funny, because a crime boss would try to say in court that he wasn't making a threat when he told someone that they had a nice family, and "it would be a real shame if something happened to them." 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What I find depressing is that authoritarian rulers can always find a large cadre of people to do their nasty bidding. Gestapo, SS, Stasi, KGB, NKVD, COINTELPRO, BOSS come to mind.

The cancer cells grow so slowly that they never really release from the gland, then it suddenly spreads to distant sites, and quickly poses a serious risk to health and longevity.
