Path through life from Republican to Democrat seeking logical middle ground. Without honor one has nothing.
May 26, 2016, the 31 member states of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), of which the United States is a member "Manifestations might include the targeting of the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity. However, criticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be regarded as antisemitic." Not so today. Failure to Support the State of Israel you are antisemitic. Several Jewish friends found to be antisemitic for criticizing Israel
Mutual claim department worked 8- 5, 3 weekdays; noon to 8, 2 weekdays. Supervisors two nights a week. At 8pm you arm alarm everyone out in 1 minute. Linda forgot something ran back to desk got outside and said "let's leave." Nope, I said checking my watch." Let's wait holding hands up, would not get past the outlet road. Sirens. Two police cars. "Halt, what goes on here." pointed to Linda. Id's checked and we went home - not bad they made it two different directions in less than 3 minutes
one mutual I worked: 2 supervisors each had 2 adjusters and shared CSR. Linda red faced slammed phone down. She was calling mgr at a body shop central PA. Her task, estimate not bad reduce by $200 or order appraisal. Facts shop held fast and she said "you're trying to screw me" reply to this "not sure can you send me a picture." I called shop, "You Bob?" Yah. "Smith car, $680? "Can do, girl as pretty as she sounds?" "8-9" "Think I have a chance" Flowers or candy at office, send pix, maybe.
Usually voter dissatisfaction is displayed special election for US house or Senate seat. Usually it does not involve loss of seat, but cut in majority vote. When a safe Ga State House flips to Democratic, voters are saying they really pissed off. President giving farmers money is not the solution. I suggest Democrats hit hard in 2026. Hopefully Democrats might get it that they a golden chance to take on GOP. If they don't we need a new party for the people.
"Democrats have seen a number of electoral successes in 2025 as the party’s voters have been eager to express dissatisfaction with Republican President Donald Trump." AP This is not correct. When GOP district elects a democrat, that is voters saying they are very pissed off. When I worked for a newspaper as copy boy it was called telling the truth. Policy most papers had. Sad but today news is saying what wealthy owners want public to hear.
Why would we seize a Venezuelan Oil Tanker? Drugs? Perhaps crewman was smoking pot and filmed. It is evil when one country seizes other countries ship. Is Rump counting on a war to increase his popularity. Has been Republican tactic before. Start a war you cannot lose and everyone will get patriotically excited loving you. Don't will work. If condemned in UN he will quit UN and perhaps order it to leave New York. Rump is mental case with some dangerous controllers in White House
Think of it, Rump term ends in 1135 days 11 hours 58 minutes. Ranking will be lower than Hoover.
History is so cruel, he will ban it before leaving office.
Sales calls. I get rid of the life insurance calls by telling I don't need it, I am an immortal. They hang up.
Personal investment. Put in buy under 300 shares Magnum Ice Cream. They will vote however Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield suggest. Not much but best statement I can afford
When you pick best teams at this point, you have to weigh opponents, I think that is why Notre Dame got a pass this years playoffs. I looked schedule. Ok, Little Sisters of the Poor not on schedule. But really not a tough year. The top line opponents not there surprising for ND
