The is no press coverage on this, but the Acting Secretary of the Army is attempting to eliminate the Army Corps of Engineers before the midterms. The Corps was there for 911. Was there for Super Storm Sandy and every hurricane and national disaster. 250 years of service gone. Sad

You know what pissed me off about the Ramaswamy ad beyond the obvious grotesqueries? There’s no EVIDENCE disputing Acton’s life story. There are court proceedings backing up her story. And all Ramaswamy’s got is the (accused) mother saying “nu uh” and somehow that’s enough? FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

The convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and pedophile sitting in the WH does not believe that a victim of child sexual abuse should serve as governor of Ohio!

A Russian hacker got into Jared Kushner's phone. The Dutch flipped the hacker and watched. What they saw, per Matthew Cole's new book: Gulf-funded accounts, $2 billion, none of it disclosed. Kushner calls it "completely insane." Fine, thin man. Then release the disclosure forms.

I was a clue on Jeopardy! I think this means I made it, right. That’s the top of the mountain.

El-Sayed: "We had a little debate. Or I had a debate and he just pointed at me and said, 'He's Muslim.'"

I've learned over the years that when someone calls in distress, I shouldn't ask if I should come over. Instead I say "I'm already in the car, unless you don't want me there" because people are terrified to bother each other, especially when they're already vulnerable. The call *is* the ask. Go.

It was quickly becoming apparent that Nelson might have slightly overstated his qualifications on the job application.

Here’s some info on blanching your vegetables to preserve them. 1. If I have a small batch I use my rice cooker vs a big pot. 2. If I have a large batch I use a big pot with a stainless steel mesh strainer to steam blanch. It makes light work of it. #StayReadyCrew nchfp.uga.edu/how/freeze/f...

I'd like to know more about steam blanching.

Good thing Amy Acton's rapist stepfather is dead because he'd be speaking at the next trump rally in Ohio.

I just cannot imagine a mother so full of hate for her own child that she chose the man who raped her 12-year-old daughter over her own kids then after her daughter made it through all that, the mother would pop up years later to once again try to knock her back down.

The messed up thing is Amy Acton didn't even make her childhood sexual abuse a center piece of her campaign she was focused on the issues, vivek brought it up because he can't win on the issues.

he’s already forgotten his other son, Earwig
