The local newspaper of record, The Union Leader, tells a somewhat different story. Odd. π€ www.unionleader.com/news/safety/...

I prayed that someone will discover the truth regarding that very iffy accident story. Driving his own rental car? Rendering aid to a female? Nahhhhhhhh. Nope.

Rudy was driving a rental, got flagged down by a female domestic violence victim, "rendered aid", and then his car was rear-ended at a high rate of speed. Not weird at all.

I don't care *who* props up JD. He will melt under the spotlight and fail all challenges by opponents who do not fear him. I hope he and Little Marco get into a slap fight. I hope RFKJr slithers into a swamp and takes Miller with him. I hope every incumbent R in Congress gets voted out.

And f**k the employers, as well. The state didn't make earned sick time *illegal*, it's just not mandatory. Decent companies would have kept it in place. Zeroing out the earned balance is a shitweasel move, as well.
