This week, The Washington Post detailed the story of how a Black contractor named Devon Henry stepped up with his company and took down most of the remaining Confederate monuments set for removal in Richmond, Virginia — when White contractors across the area refused to do so. City and state officials said they turned to Team Henry Enterprises after a long list of bigger contractors — all White-owned — said they wanted no part of taking down Confederate statues." https://www.rawstory.com/confederate-statues/

This good news for dems. Normal people will be repulsed by these whack jobs. No matter who is speaker, 'extreme MAGA types' now control the House: analyst According to an analysis by CNN's Ronald Brownstein, whether current House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) wins his uphill battle to be the Speaker of the Republican-majority House or not, notice has been given by the far-right members of his caucus that they will dictate what goes on the chamber no matter who holds the gavel. https://www.rawstory.com/kevin-mccarthy-gop-revolt-2659059056/

How to the Trump backers keep up with the conspiracy theory du jour? Trump claims DOJ hiding documents showing Biden corruption as GOP takes over House The former president unloaded another round of attack on Georgia election worker Ruby Freeman in a Tuesday morning Truth Social rant, and he then spread claims by a Colorado attorney that have been reported by the Daily Mail, New York Post and Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo. “'Lawyer claims that the Department of Justice is hiding hundreds of records on Hunter and Jim Biden,' Maria Bartiromo," Trump posted. "These records lead to, and implicate, Joe Biden and the many millions of dollars that have been stolen over the years. https://www.rawstory.com/kevin-evans-biden-justice/

I wasn't offended. Anyway, off topic here.

Moving the goal posts? Non Americans are extreme liberal? I don't think so. Me, yes, absolutely. An attitude I picked up during the Vietnam war.

It isn't a scam but those cars are inextricably linked to climate change as well as pollution.

huh, My girlfriend told me she was a nurse.

Oh, you think we are all rabidly anti-American? I work for a US company.

I used to run a factory in the Philippines which made the uniforms for the bars there and adult shops in oz.

A possibility is to block bots. A lot of traffic (server load) is generated by bots.

It was probably a bar where the girls dress up as nurses and he was too plastered to notice.

grrr. ????

I remember a race between two cooper S sedans and two porsche 911 coupes at a raceway in Sydney in 1974. The minis would take them in the corner and be overtaken on the straights but a mini won when the rear windscreen on the leading porsche blew out. I used to race a sprite 2A on the northern beach road on sundays in Sydney that year. Same motor.

Is that after a woman was shot?

Who allowed them in. Where's your link? Again, do you never read MSM links? The question of who had authority and why the national guard was not called has been addressed here. Yet here you are asking the same question. That said, if you think an inquiry is going to find the dems at fault you really will be surprised and not in a good way. Why did Trump do nothing for 187 minutes? The security agencies did have prior warning that the well regulated militias were going to turn up and dismissed or hid the threat. That's what's going to be discovered in an inquiry. That's probably what been redacted from the transcripts and the reason will be that the special council is still investigating that issue. Surely you don't imagine that the issue of why the national guard wasn't there in numbers is going to be ignored? The dems are screaming for answers.

Clarence Thomas Faces Fresh Investigation Calls Over 'Spousal Support' Virginia 'Ginni' Thomas testified that she "never spoke" with her husband about former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election, but some of her comments are raising eyebrows amongst her critics. When asked about what she and her husband had talked about, she replied: "I wish I could remember but I have no memory of the specifics. My husband often administers spousal support to the wife that's upset. https://www.newsweek.com/clarence-thomas-wife-ginni-january-6-testimony-1770691

So what does that mean. You want an investigation into how only a few initially entered the Capitol building? That many entered moments later isn't an issue? Or are you implying some kind of false flag invasion of antifa protesters? Put simply, it's not clear what the word "initially" is doing there.

Hi, we're turning you loose in your native habitat but don't expect to see anybody that looks like you because they are almost all gone.

Just guessing but it's more likely that Curry's blocked it, not your ISP. Their motive is to stop fraudulent card purchases from overseas. Pointless imo. edit: didn't read the tiny print.

Why would the Thai aircraft need to go back to the US. The weapons systems could be fitted here. Yes, the Thai pilots would need to go to the US for training in a simulator. Guess what? They do now. What I said was that Singapore is likely to have a simulator, as is Australia. https://www.f35.com/f35/news-and-features/10-ways-the-f35-simulator-is-changing-pilot-training.html https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/products/f-35-lightning-ii-training-systems.html

Nothing new there it was several years ago as well. This from today. The baht is set to be powered by an influx in Chinese tourists after Beijing rescinded most of its Covid controls over the past month, paving the way for a recovery in outbound travel. China is also Thailand’s biggest export market so the efforts by the world’s second-largest economy to bolster growth should help too. https://www.scmp.com/news/asia/southeast-asia/article/3205364/singapore-dollar-goes-toe-toe-thai-baht-tussle-be-best-regional-currency

On one level I do agree with this sentiment. The only thing that gives me some pause is that quite a few endangered animals are being bred by zoos and would become extinct without them. https://www.aza.org/connect-stories/stories/how-do-zoos-help-animals?locale=en https://edition.cnn.com/2020/09/17/world/captive-breeding-species-cte-scn-spc-intl/index.html
