That's because he is not. I believe his Foreign Minister (Lavrov) is there in his place. You know - because of the whole "Interpol arrest warrant".

I was hoping this is a setup to get Zelensky into Trump's orbit so his USSS detail can arrest him for the supposed Ukrainian assassination teams going after Trump.

Wow - I just looked at what I typed up there - USSS. It hit me the acronym should be changed to SUSS until they start doing their jobs again.

Wrong act. MAGAnical_Bull got it right down below - Logan Act.

The Hatch Act is supposed to keep Executive Branch employees from campaigning on govt time, and from govt offices - except for the POTUS and VP. They can't be stopped from campaigning from govt bldgs because they live there. They are also always on govt time.

I never got into any of the family-tree stuff, although I did find my name once in a local ancestry site. I was trying to find info on my biological father to see if I was still listed in that family tree. Turns out I was. That site was something a bunch of older members of a very large (locally) family started years ago and someone kept it up online.

I was adopted at 7yo when my mom married my new dad. I had to go to court and sign my name during the adoption, and my bio dad didn't show to contest (he couldn't anyway - he was wanted). The judge told me I couldn't contact my old family and I actually told him no. I continued to visit my grandmother and aunt from that side for decades. My kids still go see my aunt. My mom told the judge she wanted me to continue seeing them and that my grandmother (my bio-dad's mom) would make sure he wasn't there whenever I was. I saw the back of his head one time when he was walking out the back yard when I got there.

The last time I ever saw him was when my grandmother died, and neither of us spoke to each other, with the exception of me saying I was sorry for his loss, and him saying the same back to me. He died a few months later.

Because of that website I was actually listed on both of their obituaries as a surviving son and grandson.

Tetracyclines, liquid (suspension) meds, and injectibles like insulin go bad or become dangerous when expired. Most others are good for many years, although they can degrade over time or in excessive heat or light.

This is exactly where some of the senior or boomer women should be able to help the most. I know a ton of them are into the whole family tree/ancestry thing so they are definitely the experts. I think it is one of the mandatory things for women as they age - ancestry/facebook, knitting/quilting/cooking, and bingo. For men it is weather/sports/tv, fishing/golf, and "get off my lawn". Church functions and grandkids are also high up there for both.

While some of this is a little tongue-in-cheek, the ancestry part is absolutely not. They are the experts.

I actually tried using the phrase "Be less white". Didn't work.

Looks like the name you requested is not approved. Names and phrases may not be approved if they are trademarked, political in nature, names of countries, celebrities, religious figures, as well as anything that could be considered offensive for other reasons. Oftentimes, a name might be accepted if you add a last name to the submission.

I bought a can for my toilet a month or 2 ago. I dumped some water flavoring in that expired - like those Mio things - and it dyed the bottom of the bowl purple (berry-flavored drink mix). I dumped a can of coke in and left it overnight. Flushed right out in the morning.

You actually answered your own question, but it is likely not the answer you wanted. Yes - it allows for the overturning of a bunch of stuff. No - it doesn't mandate it. That will require either court cases to force the issue, or someone that doesn't care about career longevity with those agencies to change it from within. Translation - it will take time and money.

Not one of the cops in the pic has gloves on...

Also how long before they all get sued for posting "dick pics"?

Lumber is still fairly expensive, and the gallows will likely be too busy to leave them there. Maybe transfer them to ziplines once the deed is done.

These things are great to watch on Steve Inman's videos - especially with his "Ludacris Cam". For those of you who don't like "colorful language" maybe you should skip these. They are hilarious though - Steve puts several of these out each day. I found him on Truth Social a couple of years ago when he started posting them there.

Here's one (it is the #3 clip):

Exactly - the US system, but without the corruption that has crept in over the last 200 or so years.

I have a theory on this. I'm sure a lot of people on here are in the same situation as I. My mother has end-stage dementia. I fought against the nursing home(s) and hospital(s) to get a durable power-of-attorney so I could act as her attorney-in-fact. I say I fought because the dementia hit very fast and the hospitals and homes all said her competency scores were too low for her to sign the DPOA. They insisted I had to go to court in FL (I live in TX) to get guardianship over her, which would've taken months and cost $15-20k at a minimum. I required this because I needed to get her on Medicaid for the nursing home care or she would be discharged on the street or put in a crap facility to die.

I finally found a lawyer that told me because the doctors never put their names to anything declaring her incompetent, I could have a lawyer and social worker visit her, question her, and have her sign the DPOA as along as they believed she knew what she was signing. It cost me about $1.5k (not counting the $4-5k it took to find a Medicaid-helping agency) and it worked. Her handwriting was awful, and I had to be on speaker phone remotely, but my nephew was able to be there in person (he lived with her before she got sick). The lawyer asked her questions she could answer and i got my DPOA. He did NOT ask stupid things like what day or year is it, or who is the President or Governor. Those questions are beyond stupid to ask someone who has been in a hospital or nursing home for months, doesn't have her glasses or hearing aids (stolen), and is bed-ridden. If I am sick for a few days in bed I won't know if it is Tuesday or Sunday unless I have a watch or phone to look at.

The reason I brought all of this up is simple. I bet Jill has a DPOA over Joe and is working as his attorney-in-fact. She can sign for him as his representative - legally. I do it all the time. I've taken over Mom's bank accounts so I can jump through all the hoops Medicaid requires (like special trust accounts, specific dollar amounts allowed in accounts, and transferring ownership of certain things she is no longer allowed to have. I had to fight with her 2 banks just to get on the accounts, let alone own them. They ultimately had no choice thanks to my legal documents.

Someone (like a Judicial Watch group) needs to FOIA a DPOA between Joe and Jill. The result of that FOIA could be Earth-shattering.

PS - I implore anyone with elderly parents to talk with them to get a DPOA while they can still understand what is happening. If they are worried you are trying to take advantage of them, tell them to get a lawyer to hold the document until you are declared incompetent or you specifically tell them to release it to you. Nobody thinks about these things until the last minute and it becomes a pain-in-the-ass exactly when you don't need the stress.

EXCEPT for one case: https://texvet.org/propertytax

Some disabled veterans and their surviving spouses can receive a 100% property tax exemption on their primary residence. It obviously doesn't transfer when they both die, but it is there while one of them are alive as long as they own that house as their primary house (homestead).

Haven't we done that with emergency food air-drops - crushed people on the ground?
