2021?
What part of "back in the day" did you miss?
She was Secretary of State, at the time.
You know . . . a representative of the Federal Government.
Just establishing a very long relationship with the Feds (existing before Cankles) . . . and a shout-out to possibly being Clinton-ized.
For me it illustrates why it's a very bad idea to have a small number of "supercontractors". Consolidation is antithetical to competition, without which you end up with crony capitalism by default.

When I was just a wee lad passing by an accident scene I spied a liver laying in the gutter, i'm not a butcher it could have been a gall bladder.

I just read a story about a 32 year old man in Connecticut that has been held hostage in his house and was discovered after he started a fire. The mother denies the allegations that he was locked in a room. The father died last year and was a part of it also as well as a couple of other relatives.
The neighbors suspected something....but didn't want to get involved or double check on their hunches.
What the fuck

I heard a little about that too. It said he’d been locked up for 20 years.
I think the mom was a step mother but either way…
WTF?

I love Homicide Hunter, Lt Joe Kenda. He is from Colorado Springs. When I am meeting people from Colorado, which I have in the last week, they stare at me blankly when I mention Joe Kenda. Is it me?

Try and find the link, because we don't always get that kind of news that you have over there, but it sure is interesting. That case would me marvelous to take a look at.

I prefer not to. It was too upsetting. Sullivan was the name and it was in Connecticut. She took him out of school and some sort of services checked on him but of course "everything looked fine" and the family lied.
