Foreigners talk funny. If they would stay home this wouldn't happen.

Gross, & a) What did you think wuz gunna happun ?! b) Commercial air traffic is subject to FAA control in that airspace. This is an unusual case, and there are precedents of heavy aircraft dumping fuel safely. If an FAA approved checklist for this contingency was followed, it's overdue for...

It wouldn't result in immediate change of president. That doesn't mean the information is worthless, or useless. For one obvious example it would be exceedingly useful information for the Dems. in formulating their 2028 presidential platform, if there is one.

It would help answer the question: Is this what they wanted?

If I may append: my older sister (with athletic history) and I had hip problems. She opted for surgical replacement, to receive an artificial hip. I opted not to. We've lost contact. I can't state specifically. But the stats I've read indicate 5 years after receiving an artificial hip, the...

Trump's 2nd term has persisted long enough to inform U.S. voters. If President Trump were to face a U.S. national presidential vote again today? Do they approve this? To what benefit?

Emmett Till: Murdered 70 years ago today American lynching victim (1941–1955) Emmett Louis Till (July 25, 1941 – August 28, 1955) was an African American youth, who was 14 years old when he was abducted and lynched in Mississippi in 1955 after being accused of offending a white woman, Carolyn...

A protest, explicitly so. The question is whether this is better service to the ego of a frustrated expert, or of some benefit to the broader organization, and the People. Either way this vacancy increases the ratio of nuts running the nut house government.
