Swift endorsement turns more voters from harris than it attracts…
No, it's not just "right wingers". Scientists found this too: New research published in The Journal of Sex Research suggests that while people are willing to engage in a relationship with someone who has had two or three sexual partners, when their number is higher (or less) than that, an individual begins losing appeal. https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/the-mating-game/201612/do-you-have-the-right-number-of-ex-partners -

Still, I would contend there's a lot more downside than upside to stepping outside what she knows. -

She has been very active. And whilst she admits to 12 exes, those are just the ones everyone knows about. The guys she really had fun with she has to keep them quiet. It has to be more than 12.- 1

And given that it's an invented number, me thinks you thinks you've got nothing. And given that it seems to be mainly right wingers who are find something negative in the number of partners a young woman has had, me also thinks you've got less than nothing.- 1

BREAKING NEWS Second Assassination Attempt-Secret Service get Trump to safety
Yeah. And the hell with that woman who was raped. What did she expect, wearing a skirt above the knees? She brought it on herself with her incendiary fashion choices. Most people can control themselves, but she will attract those nutters who just can't control themselves. Come on, man. The big difference between the Trump BS rhetoric and the BS rhetoric that is directed against him is this: the anti-Trump stuff is directed at him PERSONALLY. Trump is the focus, the bad guy, the Nazi, the direct threat to American democracy. A far easier target for any nutbag loser to hear a grudge against. I mean, really. How many people genuinely think that, if he is elected in November, he will rip up the Constitution and declare himself Emperor Donald the First? No more chance that Kamala would do the same thing if she were to win. -

The Obama administration, which spanned from 2009 to 2017, was marked by several significant achievements across various policy areas. Here are the top 10 notable achievements: ### 1. **Affordable Care Act (ACA) - "Obamacare"** - The ACA, signed into law in 2010, aimed to reduce the number of uninsured Americans and lower healthcare costs. It expanded Medicaid, established health insurance marketplaces, and prohibited insurance companies from denying coverage based on pre-existing conditions. Millions of Americans gained access to health insurance as a result. ### 2. **Economic Recovery Post-2008 Financial Crisis** - When Obama took office, the U.S. was facing the Great Recession. His administration implemented the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, an $800 billion stimulus package designed to spur economic growth, save jobs, and support infrastructure projects. This helped to stabilize the economy and reduce unemployment from a peak of 10% in 2009 to below 5% by the end of his second term. ### 3. **Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act** - Passed in 2010, this law aimed to prevent the recurrence of the financial crisis by increasing oversight and regulation of the financial industry. It established the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to protect consumers from predatory lending and other financial abuses. ### 4. **Operation Neptune Spear and the Death of Osama bin Laden** - In 2011, Obama authorized a covert operation by Navy SEALs that resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. This was a significant milestone in the global fight against terrorism. ### 5. **Paris Climate Agreement** - In 2015, the Obama administration played a key role in securing the Paris Climate Agreement, a global accord aimed at mitigating climate change by reducing carbon emissions. The agreement represented a significant international effort to address global warming. ### 6. **LGBTQ Rights and Marriage Equality** - Obama's tenure saw significant advances in LGBTQ rights, including the repeal of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy in 2010, allowing gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals to serve openly in the military. Additionally, the administration supported the Supreme Court's 2015 decision in *Obergefell v. Hodges*, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. ### 7. **Iran Nuclear Deal (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action)** - In 2015, the Obama administration reached an agreement with Iran, along with other major world powers, to limit Iran's nuclear capabilities in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. The deal aimed to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons and was seen as a diplomatic approach to a longstanding security concern. ### 8. **Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)** - Established in 2012, DACA provided temporary protection from deportation and work authorization for undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, known as "Dreamers." The program aimed to provide relief to individuals who had grown up in the U.S. and contributed to society but lacked legal status. ### 9. **Cuba Policy and Diplomatic Normalization** - In 2014, Obama announced the normalization of diplomatic relations with Cuba, ending more than five decades of isolation. The administration eased travel restrictions, reopened embassies, and aimed to engage Cuba through diplomacy rather than confrontation. ### 10. **Auto Industry Bailout and Restructuring** - The Obama administration continued and expanded the auto industry bailout initiated by the previous administration, providing loans to General Motors and Chrysler. This intervention helped prevent the collapse of the American auto industry, saving millions of jobs and stabilizing key manufacturing sectors. These achievements reflect a range of policy areas, including healthcare, the economy, foreign policy, civil rights, and environmental protection. While each of these initiatives had its supporters and critics, they collectively shaped the trajectory of the United States during and after Obama's presidency. -

By the same token, we also don't know if it will increase her popularity, especially worldwide, where Trump is a very unpopular figure.- 2

Tourism Minister Aims to Levy 300-Baht Fee for Visitors
So that's why ticket from DMK to Phnom Penh is cheaper than flying back. Same with Phuket -> Malaysia or with Singapore. Thai airports want more tax. Now I get it. And then they say heeeyy Visa is free! Like Buy iPhone XYZ but get "free" screen protector not many man made things are free. -
