It is useful to note that if Trump is required to sell properties to come up with the $450M bond, and has been lying about their value to banks, he may be underwater on most of them. That would be a "mortgage crisis" of one kind of situation.

hey @cbouzy a small feature request. On the web page, when you start a new spout *grab the focus*. This pattern is so common I find myself typing which throws the shaded screen around with keyboard shortcuts instead of typing into the spout. I sigh, click my mouse in the spout and continue ...

I don't suppose y'all noticed that Wendy's wasn't proposing that *wages* for the counter staff would go up at busy times. Or that you would get a *discount* if you bought a burger when the store was empty.

"Gouge Pricing" is more accurate.

I wonder if someone can explain why any bank that currently has a loan outstanding with any Trump affiliated organization or his children, hasn't sent the requisite notice about calling it due.

Feels like it should be more of a big deal that the people of the US are allowing a small group of people with ties to an enemy of the country, to block the country from helping an ally.

I wonder if the Ukrainians will get better Shahad interceptions with Skynex. Sadly I doubt they would publish that info if they do for opsec reasons but I am really curious about that.

I pointed out to my "not ALL Republicans are like that" friend that today's Republican party is indistinguishable in messaging or policy from Hitler's Christian Democratic party in 1939. I challenged them to find one way it differed, even one. He said, "they wrote in German" :-)

I don't think Trump appreciates that if the Supreme Court decides that Presidents are immune from prosecution that Biden can order Trump's assassination for the good of the country and then pardon the shooter(s).

I wonder when #AnchorBabyTed Cruz will figure out that Trump was talking about his parents as the "poison in the blood" that needs to be fixed so that Texas can have a white senator instead of some anchor baby from an immigrant.

Some notes from President Zelenskyy's year-end full press conference with over 200 accredited media. Full translation later. Here are the highlights:

Real quick way to capture text from your picture gallery in Android.

The bottom of this pic, circled in red is a text capture button. Click on it, then long press screen. Menu pops up, choose select all.

I'm really curious what the support would be for Biden with a different VP. There is racism in both sides of the aisle and I'm wondering if "Biden is too old" is code for "We don't want President Harris" ? 🤔

I don't think people appreciate enough that when Ukraine wins their war with Russia, the Russian Federation will likely collapse. That, in turn, will take Russians out of the equation in Syria and Africa which will be a good thing for people living there! Supporting Ukraine is supporting world peace

Discovered that Disney+ has all three seasons of "The Orville" on it and so I finishes Season 2 and watched the final season (3). Yes it's a ripoff of Star Trek but it is a GOOD ripoff. The story telling is first rate in my opinion. I can easily recommend it.
