Even better, they bitched and moaned about Epstein and Clinton (and probably still do). Trump is a special boy.

Well, I'll just add that even if this is true it will sway nobody.

Trump is a rapist caught on tape bragging about how easy it is to assault women. Very few Trump supporters are unaware of this fact and yet that are still Trump supporters.

That he's assaulted women simply isn't newsworthy for his fascist followers. He's hurting the right people and that's all that matters to them.

Sadly, about the only thing he could do to lose support would be to insult his followers or the USA. They'll forgive him for pretty much anything else, including rape and murder.

Exactly this. The point was to cast doubt on the election process.

Clickbait title. Makes it sound like he was arrested for searching the term. He was arrested for hacking the SEC account. He later searched for "how do I know if the FBI is investigating me".

It's not terrible, but it's also not great. Fruit trees by their nature produce just mountains of fruit for a single tree. I came from a large farming family and we had a few fruit trees. So much of it ends up on the ground and rotting (which, not so bad since it was in a field, a nightmare if it were in the suburbs).

If you really want one, you NEED to maintain the tree. That means cutting branches to make sure the tree doesn't grow up and instead grows out. It also means constant maintenance to make sure branches aren't overloaded (growing out means they have a higher risk of breaking).

Regular trees are already a PITA to take properly maintain, fruit trees are another level.

And even with all that, you'll still end up with a bunch of rotting fruit on the ground. Birds, insects, etc will nibble at your fruits. You'll simply miss the 50 fruit the ripened early or late. It's just going to be a headache no matter what you do.

And it's a lot of fruit. 1 tree can easily make enough fruit for 20 people. That comes in all at once.

The real problem with the filibuster, in my opinion, is it shields senators from taking a public position. The most extreme senator from Idaho can filibuster the "feed the children" act which prevents a senator from Georgia from having to vote no.

Not really. It was ok but not great pizza.

Yup, they deliberately ran it into the ground. They took out loans against Kmart to buy Sears and sold Sears and Kmart properties off to give themselves money via stock buybacks.

And what's worse, because it worked, you can see similar actions happening to other major retail outlets. Target, in particular, seems to be following directly in the footsteps of Kmart.

Agreed, very well done.

Assuming he has a competent lawyer. Very possible she sucks and so does his lawyer.

Project 2025. But when only the Nazi freaks liked it the Republicans have had to backtrack and pretend like that was never the plan.

I lived above a pizza shop at one point. Was not an issue.
