Global microchip shortage has China eyeing Taiwan Some worry China may use military force to seize Taiwan and its microchip industry "Whoever controls the design and production of these microchips, they'll set the course for the 21st century," said Martijn Rasser, a senior fellow at the Washington-based think tank Center for a New American Security. "By gaining control over Taiwan’s semiconductor industry, China would control the global market," Rasser said. "They would have access to the most advanced manufacturing capabilities and that is even more valuable than controlling the world's oil." https://www.foxbusiness.com/technology/global-microchip-shortage-has-china-eyeing-taiwan

If Kwity Paye DE fell to 30 , I would be so happy.

Allen would be $23M , Edmunds $12.7M , would try to extend Edmunds for less if not pick up his 5th year option. The cap will go up a lot after this season. https://overthecap.com/fifth-year-option-projections/

— Columbus, Ohio Mayor Andrew Ginther held a press conference on ... updates on the fatal police shooting of 16-year-old Ma'Khia Bryant. ... Chief, is a 12-minute response time to report an attempted stabbing acceptable? https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/16-year-old-makhia-bryant-killed-by-police-update-columbus-ohio-mayor-press-conference-transcript-april-21 If that is true a more urgent dispatch to get there sooner might have made a difference.

You are aware medical science in the US is exponentially higher today then in 1918 right?

1918 Pandemic (H1N1 virus) The number of deaths was estimated to be at least 50 million worldwide with about 675,000 occurring in the United States. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/1918-pandemic-h1n1.html Hard to imagine the US might surpass that grim number even with a massive advance in medical science.

The family of the Indiana shooter reported him as a danger , the FBI closed his case. If you see something say something, right.

They need much better back round checks with interview of family and friends. Then tell family and employer to report any changes in the future.

Common sense would say they can't pack the SC , if FDR could not then no one can.

Will be no court packing or nuke of Senate voting

New York Times: Boehner lays blame for 'that bloody insurrection' at Trump's feet Former House Speaker John Boehner said former President Donald Trump "incited that bloody insurrection" at the US Capitol and blamed his false election claims for the GOP losing control of Congress, according to excerpts from his forthcoming book obtained by The New York Times. Republicans have wobbled over whether to embrace the 45th President's legacy as an electoral strategy, and Boehner's scathing rebuke amounts to the latest plea by the former de facto head of the GOP to resist Trump's influence as it defines itself in the Biden era. Trump's "refusal to accept the result of the election not only cost Republicans the Senate but led to mob violence," the former speaker writes in his forthcoming book, "On the House: A Washington Memoir," https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/07/politics/john-boehner-donald-trump-insurrection/index.html
