Vice Presidents are so frustrating. They can't or dont

speak their minds. And they recoil at anything that could be controversial Seems like such a waste of opinion and talent. All across the board, Rs and D's....what a thankless, horrible place it must be?

Is there a superlative to " sore loser-ness"? Machiavellian behavior?

Is you step away and look.... This is all sore loser gone wild. It is not pushing lies about fraud first and foremost.... It's " no way can I lose" and I will do anything to make it not true. This is the angle, IMHO, that should be pushed. He, given 50 years of getting his way, could not lose.

Frequent Flyer free tix

Been trying to get back to Europe for a while. Got an AA card and are up to 200k points.

A first class tix now costs 700k points !!!!! Or, they are doing something new now.... 250k points plus $919 in cash. Which I guess is kind of the same as buying an economy ticket with an upgrade? Just plugged in a simple search JFK to Paris.

I've been a member of AA frequent flyer forever.. and it always feels like whenever I want to go somewhere they have upped the number of points needed and I'm always a little bit behind

Anyone else dealing with this?

Just heard CNN panelist say that unless the J6 hearings result

in a successful prosecution, they will have failed.

Do you agree?


Just spent week with family on vacation. One out of many is a wingnut. Kept saying hearing was one sided and lacked due justice. I personally, have not heard any rebuttal to all the horror. Is there???? Because they plead 5th or don't appear? is this an obvious fact?

Meanwhile - horrors continue in Ukraine - Zelenskyy

Updated 3:00 p.m. ET, June 2, 2022

About 20% of Ukraine's territory is under Russian control, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky, with the Donbas region "almost entirely destroyed."

Roughly 800 people are hiding in bomb shelters underneath a chemical factory that was hit by Russian missiles in the eastern city of Severodonetsk, a Ukrainian official told CNN. While street fighting still continues in the city, Russian forces now occupy "most" of it.

Zelensky claimed more than 200,000 Ukrainian children have been forcibly taken to Russia since the start of the war. More than 1.6 million people from Ukraine and the breakaway Donbas area have crossed into Russia so far, Russian state media reported.

Russia said Ukraine's demands to the West for advanced rocket launchers is a "direct provocation" after the US and UK agreed to provide new missile systems to Kyiv. NATO said it didn't foresee Russia retaliating to the US move.
