I really thought we would have a verdict right now.

It seems like the aperture for new tax policies is under way with new methodology hoping to right the ship.

It is Friday if the jury doesn’t come back with a guilty today I bet they are hung

Just Me 2 - If the jury doesn’t came back with a verdict soon Musk and his Dodgy operation will fire them.

Transportation secretary Duffy acting (illegally) to cut off EV charger speeding is yet another example of Senator Durbin failing Illinois. Duffy is a climate-change denier. Yet instead of opposing him on that ground - or instead of opposing all Trump nominees until the retribution, purging of employees, and illegal impoundments stop, Senator Durbin voted for Duffy’s confirmation.

Senator Durbin just doesn’t get it. After all his service for Illinois, his time is past. He should step aside.
