Grandpa was a draft-dodger, too, left to avoid the Franco-Prussian War in 1876. He opened a whorehouse out West, made money, came back East, tried to go home to Bavaria, wasn’t allowed to stay because he’d avoided military service. Donnie did much the same thing, claiming convenient “bone spurs”.

His grandfather was dodging the draft. Donnie 34felon did the same thing in the 1960's.

My family kept our German name when we emigrated from Europe in the 1840's. (illegal immigrants, I grant you)

U.S. companies are moving here for a reason and more will follow.

U.S. businesses have relocated operations north of the border, citing “policy changes and regulatory instability” in the U.S., and a more favourable business climate in Canada. 🇨🇦

These U.S. companies moved to Canada. Will there be others? — National Post

In Iceland, books are exchanged as Christmas Eve presents. Then you spend the rest of the night in bed reading them and eating chocolate. Sounds perfect to me.

Europe needs to arm Ukraine better. Also, confiscate all of putin's money that's in their banks and give it to Ukraine now.

Senator Kelly didn’t mince words with Dana Bash: if a second strike hit a burning boat with survivors he thinks the second US military strike on a suspected Venezuelan drug vessel constitutes a war crime! A former Navy captain calling it out matters.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.

Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.

Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

Reporter: How long does your admin plan to pause asylum?

Trump: A long time. We don’t want them. We don’t want those people. You understand that? You know why? Because many of them are no good.

Few nursing homes can care for people who need help breathing with a ventilator because of ALS and other conditions. Insurers often deny payment for the best at-home machines, and innovative solutions are endangered by Medicaid cuts.
They need a ventilator to stay alive. Getting one can be a nightmare

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

New Yorkers kept telling me the same thing: they’re thinking of leaving because they can’t afford to raise their kids here. Universal childcare isn’t just a promise — it’s how we make this a city for everyone.
