Las Vegas is a great city, that is growing quickly. As they grow they need to keep it fun and remember to include swimming pools and tennis courts. A lot of refugees are choosing Vegas, and it is paradise for many new immigrants. My Mother has a friend who helps to run a casino and she is from the Philippines, there are lots of great people in Vegas from the Philippines.

I lived in Battle Mountain, which is also a great city.

And I love the Italians and the Jews, I have never had any problems in Nevada.

Salute,

Tony V.

Before there was Vegas, the Italians used to run gambling ships off of the coast of California.

Then Bugsy opened the Flamingo in 1946.

Vegas and Anaheim both depend on tourism, we need to connect our cities with a high speed train.

I recommend building the high speed train and running it with Amtrak. Amtrak is nationally owned and does not need to make a profit.

If you go one way then you go to Vegas, and if you go the other way then you go to Disneyland.

Salute,

Tony V.

The Governor of Mississippi says he isn't going after certain birth control "at this time."

The people from the Philippines are having a celebration in Las Vegas...

I love the people from the Philippines, and they have great parties, with roasted pigs, etc, the food is great at Filipino parties.

Salute,

A long time ago the King of Spain was King of the Philippines, and he loved the people from the Philippines very much, so he sent them many ships full of pigs so that they would have lots of pork to eat, and to this day the people from the Philippines still serve roasted pigs at their parties.

Salute,

The GOP has been Putins bitch since 2008.

We have Russians flying into Mexico, and they are at the same camps as the refugees from Ukraine, and they are all being allowed into the USA...

https://nypost.com/2022/03/29/russian-refugees-secretly-allowed-into-the-us/

I recommend Battle Mountain, Nevada, and Nome, Alaska, and Napa, California, and Carrollton, Kentucky, for our new refugees.

Merced, California is also nice, and Merced will have a station on the California High Speed Rail.

Vegas is nice too, and it is easy to get a job in Vegas working at the casinos, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

Bakersfield is a good place for refugees who want to work on farms...

https://www.indeed.com/q-Farm-l-Bakersfield,-CA-jobs.html

And we need for our refugees to be like the hippies and they need to share and they need to help each other.

They need to be like the famous community of Roseto, Pennsylvania, from the Roseto Effect.

People need to get themselves back to the garden.

And there is the United Farm Workers.

Salute,

Tony V.

So you're ranking investigation of things like law enforcement abuse on a par with investigation of a  document leak of a court position that is zero surprise and pretty much everyone has know for months would be the court's position and is a few weeks away from being formally announced.

LOL. Why would the President of the United States wade into one and not the other.?
Especially since the latter is a direct affront to a basic tenet of our Constitution, checks and balances based on the separation of powers.
You cannot be serious.

Leaking the draft opinion is also not illegal.

And if you take the position that it is an illegal attempt to to obstruct official business you are criminalizing a whole category of conduct not previously considered illegal, including whoever leaked the exact same information (though not as far as we know the draft opinion) to the Wall Street Journal four days before the draft was published.

President Biden made a strong condemnation of an arson attack on a Wisconsin anti- abortion group roughly a day after an unknown assailant threw at least one Molotov cocktail into an office of Wisconsin Family Action (WFA), a pro-life activist group.

President Biden strongly condemns this attack and political violence of any stripe. The President has made clear throughout his time in public life that Americans have the fundamental right to express themselves under the Constitution, whatever their point of view. But that expression must be peaceful and free of violence, vandalism, or attempts to intimidate,

White House statement.

Hallelujah!

It would have been nice if the President had made the statement in person, but at least it was made.

He would wade into a major crime against persons, which was the possibility at that time, and make sure the DOJ fully investigated.  Since the document leakage is (per my earlier comment) relatively small potatoes, and already being investigated, I would think he would skip the podium appearance and attend to the many pressing issues facing our nation at the moment.  Presidents with political skills tend to follow the principle of proportional response.  And Biden did comment (six days ago) on not rushing to assume that the draft was authentic, and then also on the problematic contents which appear to defecate on the 9th Amendment as well as the 14th - and THAT truly is an "affront to a basic tenet of our Constitution."

Well, if the leak is not even illegal, then looks like ol' Ward is just gaslighting again.  BAE

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), who supports abortion restrictions but who has spoken out in the past about being a victim of rape, said she would support legislation that permits abortions for victims of rape and incest.

"When you realize whats happened in your life, the trauma, the emotional, the mental, the physical trauma in a womans life, that decision - she should make that decision with her doctor and between her and her God."

Does Ms Pepper Spray realize that she has just made a fairly cogent argument for a woman's right to choose?  Heh.
