The majority of America believes this is the worst choice of candidates in American history. I can't profess to know every presidential race since the late 1700's, but in modern history I agree with them. The two oldest candidates ever to run against each other. Neither has any real ideas...

This may be the dumbest post in the history of this board. Every politician, entertainer, or media star has people on the payroll to make them look better in the public eye. The higher you rise, the more money spent to massage your image. Trump is a former president trying to win office...

Actually, it is not true that Trump could just rescind it. There is a process that would involve OPM in order to rescind it. It could also possibly be challenged in court. It is not as simple as just reversing the executive order. You can RIF federal employees, but that involves congress...

Can't transport hazardous materials through tunnels and most tunnels have lower height restrictions than bridges. The Key bridge crossing was specifically designed as a high bridge so that trucks could use it without having to go all the way around 695 on the west side of Baltimore when...

Missouri state senator Maria Chappelle-Nadal:

That's the problem with anything that is totally battery driven. I bought a Ryobi mower a few years ago. The battery charge timespan was advertised at around 45 minutes. That was about right, maybe even a little more right out of the box. After a couple of years, that timespan runs down to...

Five Guys has always been expensive compared to other places. I've gotten lunch for me and the wife there and it's usually 2 burgers, split regular fries. Comes out to about $35. They are a cut above fast food places, but really should not be that expensive. This is what happens when you...

I love when people get all upset because a companies targeted a specific group with aggressive advertising! Hello, that is the purpose of advertising. Do you ever see tampon commercials on NASCAR events? Or tool commercials on the Lifetime channel? Sure blacks were targeted by menthol...

Interesting fact about Gavin Newsom. He pushed for, and got, an exemption to California's mandatory $20 per hour fast food workers minimum wage for establishments that make their own bread and sell it as a standalone item. Now that's a pretty specific exemption. Now just who benefits from...

No, not really. It didn't work back in the 1930's when we said Hitler was a European problem. It would work way less now. Russia has been a United States problem since the end of WWII. Keeping them in check has always been what we do. This is no different. The key is keeping a balance...

I get where people would have a problem with spending tax payer money on causes that don't seem to provide any benefit to citizens in the US. But I've heard the argument before about spending all of this money when we have people starving here in the US. It was used to kill the last several...

Wow. That dragged out a 70's oldie I hadn't thought of in a while!

I've been saying for the last several years that republicans need to stop fighting voting by mail and start using it to their advantage. It's here to stay and it is just stupid to keep fighting it and let your opponent have the advantage.

I'm not even going to pay any attention to the campaigns. I already know how they will play out. Democrats are going to hammer the "democracy under attack" theme and then follow it up with the abortion rights card. Republicans are going to lead with border security and follow up with out of...

Yeah, I'm not sure this reaction was warranted. I absolutely support Israel against Hamas terrorists, but this guy went way too far for a teacher. The proper response to someone claiming the Israeli flag offended them was to tell them that if they are that offended they should go to the...
