It was not at all due to the knucklehead in the White House that Darline Graham was elected to fill her late brother Lindsay's Senate seat. This is a well-known phenomenon called "widow’s succession” or the “widow’s mandate". With Lindsay Graham being unmarried, his sister fills the "widow" role.

"The [US] withdrawal from the [JCPOA deal under the first Trump administration] led Iran to take actions contrary to the deal, including stockpiling roughly 440 kilograms of highly enriched uranium." The 2nd Trump administration has no idea how to solve this self-created quagmire, does it?
Wordle 1,892 3/6 ⬛🟨⬛🟩⬛ 🟩⬛⬛🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 That maybe doesn't appear to be a highly accurate 1st guess, but only 5 words remained afterwards. So it gave me a decent shot at a birdie 2 or a tap-in par 3. 👍
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, rither we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor...without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." --Stephan Colbert

Wordle 1,875 3/6 🟩⬛⬛⬛🟨 🟩🟨⬛🟨⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 NYT Avg = 4.1 NYT Bot = 4 Both yesterday and today, only one word remained after my 2nd try. Yesterday I muffed it by overlooking a yellow letter... but today I happily did not.
Wordle 1,872 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟩🟨⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 NYT Avg = 4.0 NYT Bot = 4 Beating the Avg and the Bot by a full point always makes my day. 🥂 If you do it fairly often, you have good intuition, for sure. Not necessarily refering to myself, but to my younger sister, btw. She is amazing with the 2s.
Wordle 1,870 2/6 ⬛⬛🟩⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 NYT Avg = 3.7 NYT Bot = 3 The ability to score 2s many times more frequently than the NYT Bot is prima facie evidence of psychic ability aka an intuitive faculty, imo.

Mail is no longer necessarily postmarked on the day you mail it. To ensure a postmark reflects the exact date of mailing, customers can request a manual (local) postmark at a USPS retail counter. This service is free. Mail-in voters take heed.

Did the ICE agent crowding the front corner of Renee Good's vehicle and firing shots as she was turning away from him constitute her weaponizing her car or him weaponizing his gun? This must be addressed in a court of law. Anything less is fascism.
