You know about Lina Khan too! She recognized the anti-trust problems with vertically integrated monopolies a long time ago. She's the youngest chair of the FTC. Biden appointed her and I hope that she serves another four years. She has

Very nice! Sariel is one of the 5 archangels in Judaism. I think (in descending order) they are Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Sariel. I don't remember the 5th. Also, how many brigadier generals could Israel have? It seems like a smoke
