  1. Why they did not turn off utilities and wait him out , I don't know. That seems normal procedure.
  2. DeSantis’ ‘anti-woke’ bills are costing Florida millions of dollars in business In recent weeks, at least a dozen organizations have announced plans to either cancel or relocate their upcoming conferences scheduled to take place in Florida, making a statement by having their thousands of attendees and millions of dollars flow into other states deemed safer and more welcoming. As of July 26, Ritter said that Visit Lauderdale has tallied 10 events and conventions that were canceled by organizations citing recently enacted laws, policies and travel advisories. That amounts to 15,000 lost hotel room nights and an estimated $20 million economic impact, she said. https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/06/economy/florida-convention-business-cancellations/index.html

  5. Ron DeSantis' awkward comeback effort The Florida governor has stuck to his old talking points, and the focus on retail politics has been less than smooth. ROCHESTER, N.H. — For $1, New Hampshire voters were invited to drink beer with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Saturday in Concord. But barely more than two dozen people showed up at the New Hampshire Home Builders Association, which slashed the ticket price for the general public from $50 late in the week in order to build the crowd. By the time the event started, an hour late, there were just 30 people in the room. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/ron-desantis-awkward-comeback-effort-rcna97317 Beer, barbecue and a bus: Inside Ron DeSantis' awkward comeback effort The Florida governor has stuck to his old talking points, and the focus on retail politics has been less than smooth.

  6. 1488 ALTERNATE NAMES: 8814 1488 is a combination of two popular white supremacist numeric symbols. The first symbol is 14, which is shorthand for the "14 Words" slogan: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." The second is 88, which stands for "Heil Hitler" (H being the 8th letter of the alphabet). Together, the numbers form a general endorsement of white supremacy and its beliefs. As such, they are ubiquitous within the white supremacist movement - as graffiti, in graphics and tattoos, even in screen names and e-mail addresses, such as aryanprincess1488@hate.net. Some white supremacists will even price racist merchandise, such as t-shirts or compact discs, for $14.88. The symbol is most commonly written as 1488 or 14/88, but variations such as 14-88 or 8814 are also common. https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/1488 "Typical turnaround time for pro forma protection requests from presidential candidates is 14-days. After 88-days " coincidence ? I never knew that code before , thanks rfk jr

The History of the Lynching Site Where Jason Aldean Filmed a Music Video Henry Choate, an 18-year-old Black man, was hanged outside the Maury County Courthouse in Tennessee in 1927 after he was falsely accused of attacking a white girl. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/21/arts/music/jason-aldean-song-video-lynching-courthouse-choate.html
  11. Blowback: A Warning to Save Democracy from the Next Trump Miles Taylor is a national security expert who works in Washington, DC. Taylor previously served as chief of staff at the US Department of Homeland Security Donald Trump will be president again, whether he is on the ballot or not. That is because Trumpism is overtaking the Republican Party and will mount a vigorous comeback, potentially in the hands of a savvier successor—The Next Trump. https://www.amazon.com/Blowback-Warning-Save-Democracy-Trump/dp/1668015986/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2FF24AQ60Y4XN&keywords=blowback&qid=1690103423&s=books&sprefix=blowback%2Cstripbooks%2C101&sr=1-1#customerReviews
  12. If cost overruns are too high and switching from Delaware North to Legends was not approved by Terry that could be it.
  13. My cable and internet bill is way too high , had to stop going to the theater years ago. The superstars are taking up too much of the money. In the late 50's I could watch a double feature in color at Shea's Buffalo.

  21. Ukraine lived and suffered under Soviet rule for decades , they would rather die then do that again.
  22. Just curious , why would prefer to live under communism and Putin rather then freedom ? How Joseph Stalin Starved Millions in the Ukrainian Famine Cruel efforts under Stalin to impose collectivism and tamp down Ukrainian nationalism left an estimated 3.9 million dead. https://www.history.com/news/ukrainian-famine-stalin From 1922 until 1991, Ukraine was the informal name of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic within the Soviet Union (annexed by Germany as Reichskommissariat Ukraine during 1941–1944). Ukraine officially declared itself an independent country on 24 August 1991, when the communist Supreme Soviet (parliament) of Ukraine proclaimed that Ukraine would no longer follow the laws of USSR and only the laws of the Ukrainian SSR, de facto declaring Ukraine's independence from the Soviet Union.
  23. Can businesses write off loses on there income taxes like Trump always does ? Do workers get paid from unemployment insurance when laid off ? Can students declare bankruptcy when they can't repay their student loan ? Bankruptcy is often considered a last resort option because of the impacts it can have on your credit and the costs and time involved in filing for bankruptcy. If you file for bankruptcy, any collections and payments on your student loans and other debts will automatically be paused until the case is over or a judge says that payments should restart. https://www.studentloanborrowerassistance.org/for-borrowers/dealing-with-student-loan-debt/loan-cancellation-forgiveness-bankruptcy/bankruptcy/ This means at least 17 percent of all COVID-19 EIDL and PPP funds were disbursed to potentially fraudulent actors. OIG collaboration with SBA, the U.S. Secret Service, other federal agencies, and financial institutions has resulted in nearly $30 billion in COVID-19 EIDL and PPP funds being seized or returned to SBA. We estimate that SBA disbursed over $200 billion in potentially fraudulent COVID-19 EIDLs, EIDL Targeted Advances, Supplemental Targeted Advances, and PPP loans. https://www.sba.gov/document/report-23-09-covid-19-pandemic-eidl-ppp-loan-fraud-landscape#:~:text=This means at least 17,seized or returned to SBA.
