BTW some of you may know this but others won't. If you're in a place that's free WiFi is _TheCloud then it will give you unlimited credits to the BNA.

Key places are Wetherspoons (which is cheap and quiet during the day) and Cafe Nero (who don't do booze and whose coffee is good)

Trump is the most corrupt president in US history, and the openness of his corruption is an essential feature of it. It's particularly bad that this comes as Trump is using state power to punish Sen Mark Kelly for correctly warning against breaking illegal orders.
