Don't know its favorite, but it yielded greens for the first 2 & the last letters. It was charming in commenting on my standard 2nd try if the 1st is a dud. "Excellent choice. XXXXX is one of the most efficient guesses in this situation. Iβm limited to more familiar words in suggestions to readers.
BREAKING: Trump Announces Ceasefire Extension. And he did so AFTER the stock market closed so that his inner circle can profit!

Unbelievable. π‘

Interesting! This is quite far off from the hard mode scores at 4:30 pm with the damn bot claiming to win in 2 and the NYT average at only 3.4.
Super duper win given your paltry yields in tries 1 and 2!! I was ready to crow about my 45 second game winning in 3, but the damn hard mode bot won in 2! Did it cheat? Can bots cheat? Prolly not. Still, skill at 99! NYT avg at 4:30 was 3.4. W 1,767 3/6*

This had better end it for every single Republican!
March 23 β The Power Plant Pause:
$580 million in oil futures flooded the market in a sudden spike β with no public news to explain it β roughly 16 minutes before Trump announced a pause in strikes on Iranian power plants.
What we already know about Jared Kushner is infinitely worse, from any possible angle, than anything we ever learned about Hunter Biden. And yet the media is completely ignoring it.
Open corruption is tolerated from one of the two parties. But only one.

Karoline Leavitt @PressSec Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump is Accelerating Medical Treatments for Serious Mental Illness
we've noticed and i'm glad he's getting help
I just tried to find it's derivation, but there's no clear answer. Some say it began in England in the 1880's and others claim it came into use in the South in the 1940's. Veddy curious indeed! Also, I hadn't thought about the bot having legs and feet before, so thank you very much for that, too!
ππ I really should watch my words around you, but am unlikely to do so. Where in the world did that phrase come from anyway? It's a crazy idea now that you have me thinking about how I could have accomplished that. Would I have blown hard into the sock while having cozied up close enough to do so? π€―
ππ I know I'm going to have oddball dreams about that tonight! First laugh of the day. Thank you very much!
Ossoff: "How does American politics really work? It's coin operated. Money goes in, favors come out. It's been running on secret money, corporate money, billionaire money ... all of this gave rise to a depraved president who exploits this rot to empower and enrich himself"
This is genuinely impressive. Ossoff knows what he is doing.
Lovely Wordle experience you had there. I found mine to be a long slog of looking up a ton of options on the past words list, but am happy to have joined you in beating the socks off the hard mode avg of 4.7 and bot 4 by 1:30 pm. Wordle 1,766 3/6*

I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.
Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires.
It's a disgrace.
ββ¦Occam's kazoo: the principle that the most plausible explanation, so far as Mr. Trump is involved, is invariably the stupidest. To understand his motives in any given situation, pick the most aggressively simple-minded, crudely self-serving, as absurdly moronic rationale you can think ofβ¦β
Of COURSE he's insider trading. He's a crook, he's ALWAYS been a crook, he's using the presidency to make billions.
He ran to stay out of jail, to make money and to feel powerful, because that's what a narcissist like him gets off on. It was never about helping people.
Kash Patelβs colleagues are alarmed by what they say is erratic behavior and excessive drinking, Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. More than two dozen people she spoke with described his management failures and conduct that could harm national security.
I never thought I'd be living in a failing corrupt fascist state, yet here we are.
Trump continues to crater. New NBC poll has his approval down to 37-63, which is 26 points underwater.
Crucially, 50% disapprove *strongly.* Has any other president had half the country strongly disapproving?

Yeah. Maybe she noticed and felt the need to lure me back with an easy set up with my standard starter. Maybe .... π€
Super! Congrats! I guess the WG felt badly for folks using my standard starter and threw us an absurd set up which I happily took advantage of using a basic rule to clinch the deal. Hard mode average was 3.6 at 2:50 and bot win in 3. Wordle 1,765 2/6*

That the president of the United States is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system!
