How could anything get better if she wasn't a rubia, huh man?

Trump's Art of the Deal turns around an unwinnable war against Ukraine On the campaign trail, President Donald Trump claimed he could end the Ukraine War in a week, and the pundits howled with laughter. But as Trump said at his press conference with French President Macron, he's a deal guy. In mid-February, Trump floated a plan with President Volodymyr Zelensky to develop Ukraine's rare earth minerals. After some back and forth, Zelensky is coming to Washington now to sign the deal. It is the first step in a larger agreement to end the Ukraine war. Trump has taken an unwinnable war, found a way to end it, and bring peace, prosperity and security to everyone. The deal gives the U.S. access to much-needed rare earth minerals and helps us recoup some of our investment in the Ukraine war. A win for us.

Biden's Lies About The Border Are Now Plain For All To See We know what you're thinking. Why waste any time on Joe Biden? Who cares about him anymore? Well, you should, since the nation will be cleaning up Biden's messes for years to come. And one of the biggest was his campaign to usher as many illegal immigrants as possible into the country while lying to the American people about what was going on. At his first press conference in March 2021 – after claiming that nothing had changed at the border (despite repealing every Trump executive order securing the border on day one) – he said the surge of illegals then underway "happens every single solitary year. There is a significant increase in the number of people coming to the border in the winter months of January, February, March. It happens every year … happens all the time." Well, now we know that was a lie. Look at the chart below, which shows "encounters" by border patrol agents at the southern border in January of each year since 2017.

And it would be really good if Congress also passed a "no AOS from tourist visas" reform.

Or when you have no body parts left, whichever happens first.

I (a USC) had to wait about 8 months from application to conditional approval. Then, no appointments were available in Houston for at least 4 months (it's tedious to search). I finally scheduled one in Brownsville, TX, to coincide with my trip to the area. I was approved at the interview (very nice CBP agent). It was on a Wednesday in mid-December 2024. My new Global Entry card was in my mailbox at home on the next Monday! Holy mackerel.

Sheesh... you should strive to remain in as few pieces as possible! My philosophy is, "If I'm healthy enough to exercise, I'm healthy enough NOT to." So there.

I sure hope that the rich Middle Eastern moguls who apply will be vetted and re-re-revetted for whether they support Islamic terrorists.

And hopefully this won't immediately clog up USCIS as the DACA program did.

Sam's smacks of Walmart. I like Costco for their monthly specials and high quality. Hard to resist buying more than what I went for. The only Buc-ee's that I ever went into, the bathroom was the worst disaster ever. Turned me off.

They have to play while standing on their heads, because they're in the Southern Hemisphere.

This one is obviously NOT a rubia, see and no and man!

Who said it was decent, huh and visit your optometrist man. Hi -- my name is Foxxie, and I'm a natural rubia, si man. I will love your cat, eat whatever we can get cheapest from anywhere, and eagerly accompany you to every ES and GS (and MS) within a day's drive, si man. I am Many years old (a JC), height-weight-proportionate at Many'Many" and Many lbs., and my measurements are Many-Many-Many, si man. Unlike anyone else with whom you associate, I am proficient in and diligent with P-Math, oj tak. Finally, I recognize that Central Chimpanzees are the consummate primate and that Charles needs poo flung on him, si man.

Laid-Off IRS Agents Now Forced To Go Door To Door Robbing People Directly U.S. — The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is the most recent government agency affected by the rule of DOGE, with layoff numbers reported in excess of 6,000 persons. Now, bands of former IRS agents are roaming the country, forced to go door to door to rob people directly. "It's just so sad," MSNBC's Rachel Maddow said. "Elon Musk is quashing the dreams of real people who devoted their lives to stealing for the federal government.

How many times has THIS happened to all of us? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dumb Dying Guy In Ambulance Makes You Miss Green Light JACKSONVILLE, FL — In a tragic turn of events earlier today, some dumb dying guy in an ambulance made you miss your green light. According to witnesses at the scene, you were completely ready to take a left turn on a sweet, sweet green arrow when this ambulance with some total jerk in the process of giving up the ghost in an ambulance zoomed through the intersection and made you wait until you missed the light.

HEB is good, probably second-cheapest after Aldi and far more stocked. HEB typically has a store-label equivalent for most products, indistinguishable in quality and taste from the name-brand labels. They have a LOT of good coupons hanging off the store shelves: "Buy this & this, get this free," or very good discounts. https://www.heb.com The only thing that I hate about HEB is all the personal shoppers gathering curbside orders. The miserable carts are as tall as the Empire State Building and block the aisles.

Wednesday! Time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== IMPORTANT THOUGHTS It says, "Press Any Key to Continue." Where's the "Any" key? I'm still trying to get my head around the fact that "Take Out" can mean food, dating, or murder. Norway is a great place. However, although they have many Fjords, there are far fewer Chjevrolets. I skipped the gym today and put a fitted sheet on my bed instead. I saw this guy today at Starbucks. No iPhone, no tablet, no laptop. He just sat there drinking coffee. Like a psychopath. Life is short. Make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet, arguing with strangers about politics. I signed up for an exercise class and was told to wear loose-fitting clothing. If I HAD any loose-fitting clothing, I wouldn't have signed up to begin with.

Don't panic if it's merely an online-status change. Wait for official communication.
