Nearly a year after issuing the Emancipation Proclamation, #AbrahamLincoln was still being asked to guarantee that freed people would not be enslaved again. The question would be settled once and for by the 13th Amendment. #AbeSays #Slavery

Have you received a social media message, supposedly from the
@federalreserve
, asking for your personal information?
It’s a scam! Fed employees never directly message the general public, unsolicited, ever!

Oh the irony…
The Federal Reserve pointing out scammers.

I think Ivanka (along with many others), has been off world since the election was stolen.
No way bossman would risk family to these animals.
I like that 1944 also.
Have you sent out holiday cards? In 1959, then-Senator and Mrs. Kennedy’s card featured a family photo with Caroline (John Jr. would be born the next year!).

We need 1 GOP Senator to block UC on time agreement for the Omni. If they want to jam the country with this leviathan nightmare, let the politicians cancel their Christmas plans — or agree to a short-term CR. Why should we make it easier to commit this legislative atrocity?

While you were sleeping, Congress unveiled a $1.7 trillion spending package without any real way to pay for it.
Only in The Swamp.

Gotta get rid of the swamp first. Otherwise they would just steal that as well.

The military won't see a dime of this.
Dems are salivating, just waiting to steal it.
Following multiple reports of unvetted Afghan evacuees committing heinous crimes & sexual assaults, the Omni gives Biden another year to bring in as many unvetted Afghans as he can AND give them free welfare, food stamps, housing, etc. All embedded in this 1 technical paragraph.

DO they go for it and commit the felony?
Signaling for health – an algorithm from NIST and
@FDADeviceInfo
uses Wi-Fi signals to determine whether someone in a room is struggling to breathe. Here’s how: https://nist.gov/news-events/news/2022/12/wi-fi-could-help-identify-when-youre-struggling-breathe
https://twitter.com/NIST/status/1605247385143152640
I wonder if they can use this the other way?
To cause someone to stop breathing.
The earthquake happened at the same exact spot, on the same exact day as last years.
