Wonderful story! www.pennlive.com/news/2026/02...

Deep in a cave, two people stand inside a vast underground space with a circular pattern in the cavern ceiling, far above them. A headline reads This Cave in Kentucky Was a Smelly Disaster. Now It’s Spectacular.

For generations, Horse Cave, Kentucky, smelled awful. Miles of caverns and waterways underneath the small town brimmed with sewage that sent a putrid stench up from the depths and across downtown. Then came an audacious vision, a bit of money and a lot of grit. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/c...

Going to be wild to have Clarence Thomas and other members of the court write that even the appearance of impropriety is sufficient to allow the President to remove Federal Reserve members from office, and then head off to Harlan Crow’s yacht

Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.

We should be grateful to the Lord to now be blessed with having an American on the world stage who embodies good and not evil.

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last

This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

How Trump Killed Every Business He Touched | Robert Reich Let’s set the record straight: Trump is not a “successful businessman.” He is, objectively, a business failure.

Howard Lutnick: "Let Donald Trump run the global economy. He's knows what he's doing. He's been talking about it for 35 years."

Hello?

Trump has killed almost every business he's ever touched. Watch. https://youtu.be/zbh9SW5Cgqg?si=1AQLnUjnabA61SN-
