wtg said: The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has opened a criminal investigation into writer E Jean Carroll, who accused President Donald Trump of sexual assault, CBS News, the BBC's US partner, has reported. The investigation is looking into whether Carroll committed perjury in connection with civil cases she brought against Trump, the news outlet quotes sources as saying. Carroll, a former magazine columnist, accused Trump of sexual assault and defamation, and successfully sued him in two cases. Both judgements were upheld on appeal, but Trump has since asked the Supreme Court to overturn the first of them. He has denied the accusations. The BBC has contacted the DOJ and Carroll's lawyer for comment. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyp77jd407o The Beeb updates the story, in a pretty significant way. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyp77jd407o

I have three rose bushes that are of the own root variety, no grafting. All three of them took a big hit this past winter. Two started sending out new shoots pretty early in spring but the third looked like it was toast; I almost dug it up. Lo and behold, probably three weeks later, I saw what appeared to be tiny buds. It hasn't caught up to the others but it is definitely still alive!

Another tidbit to show how content free the report was... Ramesh Ponuru in the Washington Post pointed out that the word “inflation” shows up 18 times in the report. But each time talking about how the cost of ad spend and other campaign expenses have gone up. Not once talking about the affordability issues that played such a big role in voter dissatisfaction.

I'm imagining the judge's reaction in court.

She may have memory problems.

Not perfect, but the difficulty level is off the charts: Link to video

I think we are witnessing the death of a civilization. Ours. It is absolutely obscene what is happening.

@wtg Don't eat them

My favorite is Publix Greenlee USDA organic vanilla. It's only $5.53 for a quart. I eat it all even though it's more than one serving. I don't care. If I'm being honest, it has too much air in it, but I can live with it.

I plan to get receipts and never let anyone approach me and I'll make sure the pump resets. At almost $5 I don't doubt scammers are as ubiquitous as mosquitoes.

Happy Birthday!

That’s pretty high if it’s generic. I usually pay like $13.

I live at 9000 ft for a reason.

I noticed there is also a trend of renaming things after our current president. I think this now may become “in depends” day…
