I will never do crypto. I don’t watch porn. I’m married and don’t want a date. I don’t contribute to any charity that’s not a 501-C organization. I don’t waste time playing video games. I block and report those that approach me for these things.

This is the GOP education plan. Privatize the school through a charter. The charter corporation gives lawmakers campaign money for a favor. The charter school gets the money and through malfeasance or mismanagement goes bankrupt and the money goes to the CEO pay

Since Costco along with other retailers are suing because the tariffs are not legal, can I sue because the illegal tariffs, illegally cost me money.
