I always find it interesting that folks don’t know the difference, especially in Georgia.

Literally wouldn’t know who he is if it weren’t for Big Bang Theory. :lol:

Liz Truss


Truss was a victim of the UK pension scheme (investment portfolio). It's a ticking time bomb chock full of derivatives that will blow whenever rates are allowed to increase. She never stood a chance and it really wasn't her fault.

The Supreme Court has dramatically expanded presidential power, the court held that presidents have free rein to fire agency heads at will, despite federal laws that require a cause for such dismissals and a 91-year-old decision that had limited executive authority.

I went to Toronto several years ago and the streets were clean enough to eat off of. Everyplace we went into was spotless. It amazing how quickly bad policy can ruin a city.

Imagine what the houses would look like if Rex and Tuba were still around. :lol:
So why are the Greeks mad?

Erdogan isn’t perfect, but he keeps Turkey in line. They’d better be careful what they ask for.
Which is it? Clear or green? I’m confused now.
There was an article in the WSJ today on the final version of that bill. There’s honestly not much to it that will positively affect housing.

Some political talking points, but not much substance.

I’ve enjoyed the positivity coming from the World Cup visitors. Glad the World gets to see the real America.
They buried this near the end:

Weird.
