1+ mon, 1+ day ago (252+ words) President Trump was given a huge, beautiful gold crown Wednesday by South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, who proclaimed a new "golden age" of the nations" alliance. The President also received the Grand Order of Mugungwha, South Korea"s highest honor, featuring a large medallion on a golden necklace. A Korean translator told Trump that the enormous pronged crown, meanwhile, was a replica of "the largest and most extravagant of the six existing crowns from the Silla period." The Silla kingdom, based in Gyeongju for about 1,000 years between 57 BC and 935 AD, at one point ruled most of Korea. "It symbolizes the spirit of Silla, which brought peace to the Korean peninsula for the first time and there will be a new golden age of the Korean-US alliance," Lee said. This is very funny after the mad ones went out across…...

3+ mon, 3+ day ago (390+ words) In a previous article, Liberty or Lies/Theft/Rape/Murder, I discussed the war between good and evil. Now, it's past time to fight the raging evil of rape. Rape is a beastly and sickening personal attack. It's also a cultural and international abomination. The individual and social damage done by rape is incalculable. For thousands of years, many cultures and nations have severely punished rapists, sometimes with execution. Until recently, killing those attempting rape has been justified and often considered to be heroic. Historically, most families have been willing to fight to the death to protect each other from rape. To expose and clarify the danger and depth of current evil, let's consider a recent attempted rape documented on X and other media: Here's an inspiring new post and picture of the 14-year-old hero that some are calling the…...

10+ mon, 2+ week ago (470+ words) Progressive staffers on the Hill in both the House and Senate are worried about burnout. They have a way to avoid it. They will work far fewer hours for the same salaries. They are asking for this to build a strong, diverse workforce, "to improve work satisfaction, and increase staff retention of diverse employees" by having a "sustainable approach". To do that, it would mean a 32-hour work week on a rotating basis. Those are our representative's staffers of the left " always looking out for us. Their work is "intense," and they deal with "life-changing matters." They must do it all in a "thorough and timely way." It's "very rigorous." They don't have "a predictable and sustainable work environment." They want to be "more effective and efficient" by working less than the average working man or woman. They want to…...

10+ mon, 2+ week ago (469+ words) During an appearance on "The Lead With Jake Tapper," Crowley said recent budget cuts have severely undermined the department's ability to fight the wildfires. The chief said that a $17 million reduction in funding has critically hampered the department's operational capabilities. "The Palisades fire, everybody's seen it. It is absolutely one of the most horrific natural disasters in the history of Los Angeles, and even with an additional hundred engines, I tell you we were not going to catch that fire." Crowley said the elimination of civilian positions exacerbated the situation. "Let me be clear. The $17 million budget cut and elimination of our civilian positions, like our mechanics, did and has and will continue to severely impact our ability to repair our apparatus. So, with that, we have over 100 fire apparatus out of service, and having these apparatus and the proper…...
