Given the GOP control both houses, why can't they pay people the $5k now? Why do they want people to wait until after the midterms?
Are they saying that they only reward you if you do as they say? Seems like something an abuser would do, no?

How stupid would you have to be to believe Trump would actually honour his promise to pay people $5k?

It truly amazes me that people can claim that gays are pushing their lifestyle in their face.
I don't see gay people going door to door handing out books about how to be gay!
I don't have gay people inviting me to a building where they talk about being gay!
Gay people exist. Get over it

If you start with the premise that everyone is equal, then it follows that no-one should be able to influence the courts just because of who they are and how much money they have.
Why do we still allow character references in court cases?

I've noticed some cars using the opposite indicator for turns. I assume this is some sort of adaptation error when going from having the stalk on the right to having it placed on the left.

So the people of the USA have each just given $1000 of their taxes to Iran as part of the deal after having spent $50billion bombing them.

A PSA for those in the USA.
The Democrats would be considered right of centre in any other western democracy.
They're still better than the alternative.
Vote accordingly

There is no such thing as "free healthcare".
It's "universal, single payer healthcare"!
You still pay for it, but it covers everyone and costs 70% less! (Ref any other first world country than the USA)

Do people realise that when you correct AI, you are training it?
If you're a programmer and AI produces code that doesn't work, the act of telling the AI what was wrong with the code, is training it.
So effectively you're training something that's going to make your job redundant.
