So what? You think that district is all MAGA? The democratic process at work despite all the yammering about him being a threat.

@Renauda said: Like I said, I can't make heads or tails of it. Maybe it’s just Trump trying to calm con down the markets. That was the alternative I was thinking of.

@jon-nyc said: Thank you Delta. In addition, one member of congress wants to make the change permanent. The End Special Treatment for Congress at Airports Act would: Require Members of Congress to undergo the same TSA screening procedures as all other airline passengers and prohibit the use of federal funds to provide them with expedited or preferential access at airport security checkpoints; Bar Members from bypassing standard screening or receiving priority treatment based on their official status, while allowing them to continue participating in publicly available programs such as TSA PreCheck or other trusted traveler programs; And maintain TSA’s ability to implement risk-based security programs available to the public. https://hinson.house.gov/media/press-releases/hinson-introduces-end-special-treatment-congress-airports-act#:~:text=Legislation Would End Preferential TSA,access at airport security checkpoints.

The lack of enforcement of the bike regulations where I live has been a blessing for me in that. I have a totally illegal E bike for writing the streets and pathways as it is too big with power and I can go almost 40 mph on mine, but it is the most comfortable ride in the world and such a fun thing to ride and it’s on its way to Sardinia where out here the regulations or lack as well but it will just take a few few more kids getting themselves killed on these things for America to tighten up the enforcement. These Chinese manufacturers are getting better and better with her product and mine is probably the best Chinese E bike made for the money and they are called Freesky. I have the Alaska model which separates from the regular models and that it has two batteries to give me longer rides, but the Chinese have built into the controller, passwords of ass sort that open up the controller to allow maximum speed you have to physically punch in a code before you go on your ride so they maintain their legitimacy in America I guess.

No kidding... Just in: Belgian author Tijl Nuyts wins literary prize for his book 'Grondwerk' about a colony of naked mole rats undermining Brussels.

@jon-nyc Up until this latest chaos in Middle East started I would say no the US does not hold the leverage it did a a year ago. Between Trump’s bluster and Wikoff’s incompetence the US has lost a lot of its previous leverage. From here on though and owing to the global economic fallout from the current crisis occupying Washington, there is no telling whether the initiative will pass back to the Kremlin.

Everybody told me that the city wasn’t as bright once I left…

And 1970’s environmental wet dreams didn’t motivate prior administrations…

We’re using an accountant and I am backing it up with a Turbo Tax audit…
