Lucky Loser by Russ Buettner, Susanne Craig

That’s the nice thing about the public library system in the United States. I can just borrow this book and not have to buy my own copy.

That said, I already know as much above Trump as I can stand. There are many other books I would rather spend my time reading as opposed to one about Trump!

2024 Vice Presidential Debate - 10/1/2024 on CBS

It seems that most national politics happen outside Minnesota, so it's just funny when I see folks commenting on Twitter that they've seen Pete Buttigieg in Minneapolis. Yeah... he's helping prepare Gov Walz for the upcoming debate. Right now Buttigieg and Walz are two of my favorite Democrats ...

Without reading it, I can tell you that a nonprofit can't possibly file criminal charges against anyone. They can ask. Politely.

While DJT may have hit a high close of $66.22 on Mar 27, it actually traded as high as $79.38 during the previous day. The charts list $79.38 as the 52 week high, and $13.50 as the 52 week low. $13.50 happened during the day yesterday.

So DJT stock dropped 83% from its peak high to its trough low.
