In this house we LOVE hbo’s John Adams. i love when the Virginia planter contingent shows up at the continental congress and they’re 22 year old fucking reptiles in lipstick
JUST IN: The U.S. soldier who officials say was entrusted with sensitive information and was arrested in the United Kingdom on suspicion of spying for Russia has been identified as a 41-year-old lieutenant colonel, according to a source familiar. https://t.co/CvVcRyR2z5
HOLY HAIL! Now, this is really something we do not see in Pennsylvania, lol. A lot of small hail got carried down into a small valley in the roadway, accumulating into a localized spot of feet-thick hail in Parkside, Pennsylvania! This is along Edgmont Avenue, and the road is currently closed; as you can see, two vehicles got trapped. Do not drive through hail drifts! 🧊
