lani , I'm confused about her charges because she said cbd oil, but the charges are for hashish - so does that mean the concentration of THC? If so, I imagine that also played into her charges. It seems you are right. I must have seen incomplete/incorrect information. I swear I read something about a low concentration of CBD, but the definition of hash oil is that is has a high concentration of THC. Must do better research. |

A lot of the comments I read on social media said oh ok so Russia can dope their Olympic athletes to high heaven such that they get banned from competing under their own country’s flag (and yet still keep doing it) but an American traveling to their country for their sports entertainment can’t have medicinal CBD oil. Ok then you effing hypocrites.

I don't think anyone has expectations of truth and reality from Russian and Chinese state media.

Senate passes the Inflation Reduction Act. Should be a done deal when the House gets it. But Biden never gets anything done, right, GOP?

lani, the talking heads are saying it will make inflation worse, that the manufacturers will just hike the cost to the consumers. Maybe? But you know, at least we have a president now that will try to do things, not just golf and whine about how no one likes him

DotRen, DH and I watch CNBC daily, him more than me, as he is in charge of our investments. Inflation or recession are not good, what economists really want to avoid is stagflation. High unemployment, little to no economic growth while prices continue to rise. A little talked about problem is the carry over of Trump's immigration basic shutdown. More immigrants and seasonal workers could take the jobs that are going begging, agricultural workers, child care, food service, truck drivers. Fareed Zakaria did a quick 5 minutes on it at the end of his last program - made it very understandable. Also explained the many other factors that are influencing the economy.

Trump tweeted that the FBI has "raided" Mar-a-lago. That's all I've heard/seen.

If he did take classified documents (a crime) to his private residence, it creates a very real national security breech.
I have no idea how much leeway or access a former president has in having these documents, but I'd guess there should be none: he's not in office, there's no reason for him to "know" any classified stuff anymore.

When he announced he was running for president I told my spouse if he gets the job he will never, ever go away. His twisted face will be all over the media for the rest of his life. Good or bad he needs the attention and the spotlight.
I believe he's a dangerous man who could tear this country apart and divide us instead of uniting us. He is, in my opinion, a clear and present danger among other things.

birdgal, he's already accomplished tearing the country apart  The only ones who don't see it are his minions who would follow him straight to hell if they were dictated to do so. (This is not all Republicans, just the die-hard trumpies )
