Two things for you.

1. The bridge. It's federal interstate crossing federally regulated waters. I would have expected the feds to pay and then sue the ship/insurance. But the timing will be interesting because I wonder if the permit gets approved in today's environmental climate vs. the late 60s when the scoping would have begun.

2. D&C at SCOTUS. I read a WaPo summary that said ACB mentioned a 2nd reason for a D&C (miscarriage). There is also a 3rd. D&C is a medical procedure to remove the lining of the uterus. I had it at age 42 as part of uterine ablation. Ablation is a treatment for heavy bleeding that scars the uterine walls and lasts about 10 yrs. Just wanted to provide you with additional women's health reason for a D&C that has nothing to do with pregnancy.

Imagine sacrificing every shred of your credibility for a con artist and then after you lose your new $300,000 a year NBC News gig he comes after you on his Dollar General social media platform. Tough luck, Ms. Romney McDaniel. Guess you backed the wrong horse there.

I too was stunned by Chuck Todd’s remarks Sunday on MTP and then the day-long deluge Monday on MSNBC, especially Maddow’s blistering 29-minute take down of NBC.

Whether it’s WaPo, NYT or NBC, this “both sides” punditry trend is out of hand. I quite agree, Mr. Dupree. If you assisted in the attempt to overturn a legal and fair election and subsequently, a cult attacks our Capitol and its lawmakers (not to mention the sitting vice president of your party), you don’t get to have a platform to continue to spout your bullshit on the airwaves of the likes of NBC News.

Can someone informate me as to why NBC didn't informate its newsfolk before hiring Romney McDaniel?

Rebuild the bridge, but probably raise it a few feet, if possible given the layout. Also add more pier protections.

May need to look into retrofits nationwide.

I’ve got an idea. Turn off all cable news. It’s a cesspool of opinions disguised as news. Who is in the lead of the two worst features of the 21 century- social media or cable news. It’s close.

Fun fact, Coach. Romney McDaniel was wooed for a job by NBC News and her first appearance as a pundit was on NBC's Sunday morning flagship Meet The Press. This wasn't a cable news hire.

I was speaking generally. I couldn’t give a flying fig about any of the pundits on the tube.
