If a war is declared, then no election. Troops being sent to cities is a test. He & GOP realize that the gerrymandering won’t save them. They’re desperate & realize the people are very angry with them & many of their supporters are no longer supporting them

They loaded up those planes with children - some as young as 10. I don’t believe they had a safe place to go in Guatemala. And the government did not care. This admin is the least compassionate of any in my lifetime.

I bought a Samsung washer after my 1 yr old LG front loader died. It was great & drum was huge.

I too had a LG front loader and it had constant problems. Bought at Lowes. They had to have 3 repairs before they would replace it. Naturally after 1 yr warrantee a plastic part of door broke & would cost $300. Lowe’s response, “you should’ve bought a warranty”.
