The straight line distance from Venezuela to the USA is bery similar to the distance if you drove straight across the USA from coast to coast. According to Google a good outboard miles per gallon is 5, so less than 1/6 as good as a sedan. Just to put it in perspective.

It’s really funny that Republicans are trying to make this argument.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

If you are looking to expand your family, please consider a rescue. If you can't adopt, perhaps you can foster for a rescue (rescue pays the bills). Otherwise volunteering or donating also helps these sweet dogs get a better life.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

Our first dog was a rescue and she bonded so closely with us immediately. I have been blessed with many wonderful pets in my life, but she loved us more deeply than any other. While some rescues do have special needs, many just need a family with an open mind, heart, and home.

Not sure if she really made the call or if she is the chosen scapegoat. Either way, naming her in the official DOJ response makes me wonder if her days in the administration are numbered.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.

Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.

Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

We are happy owners of a rescue pup.

Starbucks can end this today: bargain in good faith, resolve unfair labor practices, and stop the union-busting.

Until then, workers are holding the line! #NoCoffeeNoContract

These are the same Christians who defend child marriage laws as parental choice.

The articles end not becuase they have summed up the information, but because the author just decided to stop typing.

This will make me sound curmudgeonly, but online articles from mainstream media are getting more frustrating to read. I find myself tripping over basic errors that even a single editing pass should have found. Furthermore, the articles lack any sort of conclusion.

NEWS: A bipartisan bill cosponsored by Sen. Ossoff to crack down on child trafficking and exploitation has passed the U.S. Senate.

MECHANIC: "Well, that right there is your problem."

Honest question: Did Representative Clay Higgins know Jeffrey Epstein?
