  1. We just need to do away with the Electoral College, especially the winner take all part. I really don’t think that was ever part of Madison’s thinking at the time. The idea was to have a group of wise men choose the Chief Executive. When Jefferson, Adams, Madison and others created political parties the whole plan went to hell. If you must have an EC assign proportional votes to the states. It’s more democratic
  2. The only time I see return labels in use is one the few Christmas cards that still include the “we accomplished so much in the past year” Joe’s out on parole, Patsy finally finished that afghan she’s been working on the past 10 years. Had a great time at Six Flags.
  3. Have you seen lobster prices lately? We ain’t getting that much from Trumpdontcare
  4. But probably not at a discounted rate one would expect if the government negotiates rates as they currently do fo insurance like Medicare
  5. Still, Arnold reports today to Gen. Washington, he plans to cross the St. Lawrence River to attack the British-held fortress city as soon as possible. He has reports that the Quebeckers, too, are short on food, and may surrender if pressed.
  6. Does Sleepy Don understand how business actually works?

  8. Only if they turn the big new ballroom into a practice facility. Imagine naming a stadium after the man who single-handedly bankrupted a football league
  9. I stumbled across this....part of her "solo" series...interesting
  10. Trump's Stasi is at it again
  11. Any state that has its political lines drawn by its legislature is guilty of some sort of political bias. The only fair redistricting seems be be multi member districts based on population proportions. Using Michigan as an example 4 multi member Congressional districts. Detroit Metro, West Michigan, Mid Michigan, and Northern Michigan and the UP. Metro Detroit gets 4 seats based on population size, the rest get three. Utilize A-I to help with mapping the districts as well as an outside no political organization. Go to proportional allocation of Electorial votes. The plan I ran on ChatGPT had the outcome in both districts and EC votes as 7-6 in favor of Republicans. Makes more sense than winner take all. The House seats also came out 7-6, GOP
  12. From Wikipedia Leading Report is an American fake news website and Twitter account that describes itself as a "leading source for breaking news". It is known for promoting misinformationand conspiracy theories, including about United States politics and COVID-19.[1][2]

  15. Schuyler is defending the decision not to advance further into Canada without first capturing Fort St. John. If the army had left a portion of its strength besieging St. John while the rest moved north, there was a possibility of “effectually cut[ting] off every possibility of Retreat.” In that case, says Schuyler, “the Canadians I do firmly believe would immediately have joined Mr [Guy] Carlton,” the imperial governor of Quebec, and taken up arms against the stranded Continental army. https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Washington/03-02-02-0291
  16. When did MTG turn into an almost normal human being
