I wouldn't even use a print version of Salon to start a fire. What a worthless outlet. Doesn't some billionaires (ex)wife own it?

I think it's an XXY from what I've read. Still a male.

Many inaugural parties. You just have to get invited. I told OP to contact his Congressman. I'm from DC and have been to some of the parades. Reagan's funeral too. My friend just got elected to Congress and I'm sure I could get tix, but I really have no interest in being there. 45 years in DC was enough for me. IIRC you're from the DMV too?

I swore I posted this comment but never hit send:

Contact your Congressman about getting inauguration tickets.

Are you staying in VA or MD?

Do NOT carry into DC. MD is a little less bad, unless you have to use it and don't have a license. But DC is half Federal property and the chances of getting busted are high.

Same for non-stick. I don't know about the ceramic over ? ones like hexclad, etc. I use carbon steel, ceramic, stainless, and cast iron depending on what I'm cooking.

Interesting tech connected to the phone in front of Trump. Anyone know what it is?

You should try an alternate version and see if it gets you an interview. Throw in some non-profit volunteering, take out the MIL, and speak with a lisp in the interview.

Call your Congressman to see if you can secure invitations. Are you staying in DC or MD? Note of caution: Do NOT bring a gun into DC. You will likely get busted and the consequences are severe for law-abiding 2A folks. Same goes for MD, but you at least won't be on Federal property half the time walking around.

We could topple any country easily in the Western hemisphere. Even in our current diminished state of readiness. PJT isn't writing empty checks. In 2 years we will control the Panama Canal and control Greenland. The schtick w Canada is to get Canadian Patriots to rise up.

It's interesting DJT is pushing this joke so far. I think the intent is slap the Canadians awake. Make the media coverage go nuts. It's also a humiliation ritual. Canada will always remain sovereign but this forces multiple issue into the light.

I had the same thought. That was a regular old cotton swab. Not sterile. Not a cheek swab. And no I have not taken the test. Both my parents did. That's all I need to know - I'm 100.00% white.

Yep. I'm geeking out on this photo TBH. I get the color mood can be shopped to emote a common feel of the photos, but you cannot deny the obvious color coding. Mind blown.

Stay strong, Fren. There's a lot of folks out there that care for people like you than you can imagine. Godspeed.

Ah, the good old ComPost. I used to read the Sunday funnies, check out the ad packet, and look at stocks and sports results. My how they have fallen. Resorting to histrionics about GSs getting shitcanned for being worthless. Having lived in DC for almost 5 decades, I can say you can rid of 50% of the Federal workforce with zero impact. My wife (not a Fed) has absorbed 3 other positions at a well-known 501-(3)c and she works 10 hour per week. The Fed is worse.....

This is actually a very interesting reminder of the change in the tide of battle. Anyone that has been out and about and interacting with the public can sense a much higher level of happiness and kinship than the last 3 holiday seasons. I call it that Thanksgiving-NYE. This is the 5GW crossing of the Delaware. The shift in public attitude.
