It’s a travesty that he wasn’t tried for Jan 6 in 4 months let alone 4 years. Justice delayed is justice denied.

My company works 24/7. I don’t. Nobody does. Vast majority work “office hours”. Those working shifts tend to do 3 or 4x 12 hour days, those working flexible hours work when required. I might work on a Saturday morning to deliver a spec

When I fly to Washington from Europe I try to go to Baltimore - the number of hours I’ve lost at Dulles immigration arrival is painful, Baltimore is 5-10 minutes.

Last time I flew from Heathrow it was 45 minutes from car to take off, and that was with a 20 minute door close. It doesn’t take 2 hours to go through security , certainly not in the first class section in any case.

There ar every few day flights from the US to Europe. A lunchtime flight arriving at 8pm is far nicer than 5 hours sleep on an overnight flight or the 7am flight. West bound being able to leave the office at 6pm and be in New York to pay th

There’s probably some truth that many normal soldiers fighting for nazi germany were not aware of the full extent of the horrors at the time. I suspect many just ignored the evidence and believed they were in a traditional war like 1914, or

Americans seem to have a view that if you get a part of an unengaged electorate to mark an x in a box every few years that’s democracy, and more is thus better. Instead it removes accountability from public servants who can simply hide behi
