Interesting point - has any journalist pressed the WH on exactly what limit on presidential power they're observing that makes the shutdown mandatory?

Walmart nostalgia is Blockbuster nostalgia, to me. The things you liked about it were pale imitations of concepts they stole from the places they ran out of business. You don't like Walmart, you like the shadows of the things they destroyed

I could never be a booker of a major wrestling promotion because my first reaction to Gail Kim's comments about Riho would be to book Raku Vs Momoka Hanazono Vs Miyako Matsumoto on Dynamite. You'd be getting the hardest grade Frilly-core Goblin match in history.

Now 58 minutes into his scheduled 15-minute address to the United Nations, President Trump is excoriating world leaders for "canceling my dear friend, and let's face it, a very beautiful woman, Carmen Sandiego" and demanding that the detective agency and its "terrible woke Chief" be defunded
