Wouldn't it be nice if R congressmen reacted the same to their partiy's criminals https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/09/27/congress/nadler-calls-on-adams-to-resign-00181411 I('d start by legislating ethics oversight of SCOTUS and making judges impeachable. -

umm, because he and his supporters fund massive and expensive appeal after ridiculous appeal. trump has abused the court system his entire life. -
I can vouch for the Algarve region of Portugal. Multiple golf resorts each with multiple oceanside course. And relatively cheap. about 2 hours from Lisbon airport. This is a par 3, about 210 from the tips as I recall https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g262054-d12549050-Reviews-Royal_course_Val_de_Lobo_Portugal-Almancil_Loule_Faro_District_Algarve.html

Hmm, millions of viewers and a Reichstag mention. Where have I read that recently? Oh right, on PPP "In audio and video clips that have reached millions of viewers over the past month on TikTok, X, Instagram and YouTube, the führer’s AI-cloned voice quavers and crescendos as he delivers English-language versions of some of his most notorious addresses, including his 1939 Reichstag speech predicting the end of Jewish people in Europe. Some seeking to spread the practice of making Hitler videos have hosted online trainings." -

the MAGAs here will tell you Neo Nazis are rare. They're lying https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/neo-nazis-are-using-ai-to-rebrand-hitler-for-a-new-generation/ar-AA1rjtZe -
check out this video aptly named "Rising from the swamp, look at earlier construction at about 3:10 in the vid. Now how bout you back up the numbers you just quoted. And I'll ignore "We don't build on swamps" statement. As recently as 3 years ago, I went by several large housing developments getting started near Disney world that required massive grading and drainage systems. How many homes have basements there? 1 square mile is plenty of swamp for me but I doubt it was that small. No shortage of info on this https://www.orlandorocks.com/blog/what-made-walt-disney-decide-to-build-on-swampland-2/ " Orlando was mostly swampland when Walt Disney was actively looking for a place to build Disney World." "So, how was Disney World built on a swamp? Well, it wasn’t, not really. They scooped out material from what was to be the Seven Seas Lagoon, made it into a vast dirt mound, and then built Disney World, the theme park we know today, on the top."

keep digging In his early 60s, the graying retired U.S. Army general led the massive construction project to get Disney’s land ready to build a theme park. The bulldozers tore through, uprooting trees, and crews tamed what was an alligator- and snake-infested swamp of Central Florida in the late 1960s. This was an old Florida back then, more rugged, wild and so far away from the well-manicured Disney grounds known today. On a boat ride through the canal, Potter and his team brought a gun because snakes hung from the trees, his daughter recounted Miami has been 6 ft above sea level for centuries. They built canals to protect it. So was New Orleans. until Katrine crushed it. Miami is considered the most vulnerable coastal city for rising sea levels. But by all means, invest in a condo in Miami. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/miami-is-the-most-vulnerable-coastal-city-worldwide/ Maybe as a teacher, you should enlighten yourself on your states topography and history.

Last time I was in Miami I was at a conference on the beach. At 6ft above sea level it could quickly erode into a swamp. Ignore the obvious concerns. I couldn’t care less. Miami and its suburbs are located on a broad plain between the Everglades to the west and Biscayne Bay to the east, which extends from Lake Okeechobee southward to Florida Bay. The elevation of the area averages at around 6 ft (1.8 m) above sea level in most neighborhoods, especially near the coast. Disney is situated in the onetime swamp near Orlando. They’ve built a great deal there https://www.tampabay.com/news/business/2021/02/15/disneys-magic-kingdom-was-mapped-out-by-a-general-youve-never-heard-of/#:~:text=Taming the swamp&text=The bulldozers tore through%2C uprooting,completely hidden away%2C Lucas said.
