    Political 2024 presidential election

    I question your first statement. Do you really think Elon and company are interested in the productivity of specific employees? If they look at workers, it will be about how well they support the MAGA movement, whether it is related to their job or not. An yes, there are huge inefficiencies...

    Political 2024 presidential election

    Is what will be interesting is how far Trump's base supports budget cuts until they realize it impacts them. I think most people define wasteful spending, over regulation or government over reach is when it benefits someone besides themselves.

    Political 2024 presidential election

    Let me make sure I am following your "logic": Since the Democrats considered, and ultimately rejected, a candidate many considered unfit for office, it is okay for the Republicans to bypass Constitutional requirements requiring Senate confirmation? As to the comparison of gun control v recess...

    The idea of recess appointments is to temporarily fill a position when time if critical and the Senate is on recess. To deliberately seek Senate leadership that will help him bypass Senate confirmation may (or as courts have ruled in the past may not) be textually legal, it certainly violates...

    Here are a few direct quotes of Trump. “Network news has become so partisan, distorted and fake that licenses must be challenged and, if appropriate, revoked. Not fair to public!” (an older Twitter post following negative media coverage) “60 Minutes should be immediately taken off the air...

    That is exactly what I said- recess appointments avoid Senate confirmation pure and simple. Thank you for documenting my point.

    Political 2024 presidential election

    Prior to the "Tea Party" Republicans, the idea of working across the aisle was something to be proud of, now especially among the GOP it is seen as treason. The exact reason why nothing gets done that actually addresses the concerns most of us have. Absurd! In 2020, to prevent intra-part...

    Some of the things I most liked about cross country is the fact that no one is trying to stop the runner from doing their best and how happy a lot of the kids are to simply do their personal best, even if far from the front of the pack. Of course, my daughter being top three in state (3A) was...

    West Desert West deer advice.

    Well, I ended up getting out for one day of the hunt (last Friday) with another cousin. I figured we would be doing well if we even found a deer, and we didn't reach that level of success. But considering all the factors in this hunt, it really did feel good jus to get out. We spent most our...

    Been carving pumpkins with the same friends nearly every year since 1993. Kids, spouses and grandkids now involved (although grandkids only by video this year ). This year's handy work (clearly some are more skilled artists than others.)
