    Who knows, maybe Ohio will kick out some of the MAGA assholes that currently proliferate there.

    I pointed out in a separate thread the one big beautiful bill gave practically unlimited funding. They already have massive funding. So what's to keep them from using it? I don't see an "after..." The Democrats have failed. That's what they do best.

    I user to make a vegetation stock (and pressure canned it) just keeping all my veggie scraps (including onion skin) in a bag in the freezer (no cruciferous veg). Once I had a large freezer ziplock full I put it in our large crockpot and filled to the top with water. 6-8 hours later I strained the stock and either froze or pressure canned it. I loved having it around and someday I’ll probably go back to making it.

    It's a new bunker, command center, and data center. The ballroom is a ruse. But, yeah, I'll read about the legal drama. I enjoy that kind of stuff. He ignored the laws he was supposed to follow. All he did was demolish a large and historic part of the White House. I don't know why doing that would end up in the courts./ s

    Aldi won the cheapest UK supermarket award and the big four use their prices to match. Yet of the two I prefer Lidl, and not because of the app and points that generate prizes like a free croissant; though I use ASDA most, going early and raiding the 40-70% reduction areas and freezing as necessary.

    Slovakia’s prime minister told EU leaders at a summit last week that a meeting with Donald Trump left him shocked by the U.S. president’s state of mind, five European diplomats briefed on the conversation said. Robert Fico, one of the few EU leaders to frequently support Trump’s stance on Europe’s weaknesses, was concerned about the U.S. president’s “psychological state,” two of the diplomats said. Fico used the word “dangerous” to describe how the U.S. president came across during their face-to-face meeting at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Jan. 17, according to two of the diplomats. The conversation between Fico and his European counterparts took place in Brussels on Jan. 22 on the sidelines of an emergency EU summit arranged to discuss transatlantic relations in the wake of Trump’s threats to seize Greenland. Leaders used that gathering to try to calm tensions after the U.S. president walked back his threat to slap tariffs on some European countries over the issue a day earlier. All the diplomats were granted anonymity by POLITICO to allow them to discuss the confidential exchanges between leaders. They come from four different EU governments. The fifth is a senior EU official. All of them said they didn’t know the details of what Trump had said to Fico that had triggered his reaction. Fico denies he said these things. https://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-florida-robert-fico-eu-summit-nato/

    We had Newfs who used to do stuff like this: https://people.com/owner-begs-dog-to-come-in-amid-sub-zero-temperature-her-response-goes-viral-11893696 Our neighbors used to have huskies. Those beggars would go out in the snow and fall asleep while it was snowing. Kathy said she went out once and couldn't find the dog. At least not until it stood up and shook off the snow that was acting as camouflage and insulation.

    And what does it mean in real terms to be held in contempt? I don't know. It seems "in contempt" has been clear x10.
