@lizards112 We should all aspire to age so gracefully; with gratitude in our hearts, a smile on our face, passion in our eyes, and wisdom to spread like seeds.
Your post exposes major gaps in congressional stock trading oversight. GovGreed cross-references trades, committees, bills & donations—flagging real conflicts via public data.
• Hundreds of members actively trade while in office.
• Prolific traders like Ro Khanna (thousands of trades), McCaul & Suozzi (late filings common).
• Rep. Lisa McClain: 1,443+ trades; multiple STOCK Act violations; family xAI investment pre-SpaceX IPO.
• Pelosi portfolio among largest/most watched.
• ZERO prosecutions under STOCK Act since 2012. Fines? $200.
Bills to ban trading have bipartisan support & 80%+ public backing—but progress is slow.
Data is public. Scrutiny matters. Full transparency & stronger rules needed.

B-52 Crashed at Edward’s Air Force Base in Cali-On Take-off
A U.S. Air Force B-52 crashed shortly after takeoff at Edwards Air Force Base today, around 11:20 a.m. Pacific time. Emergency crews responded immediately, and the situation is still ongoing. No details yet on the crew or cause. This is a developing story—Edwards says more info is coming.
I was born there. Went back 2-1/2 years ago to visit family living nearby, but not in Portland proper. The grandkids had a soccer game downtown. We went to watch. Empty businesses, buildings, stores. No traffic or buses, and no tourists. Our family members acted like this was completely normal! Broken down RVs parked in town and on the streets. Vehicles covered with blue tarps parked at expired parking meters. Tents anywhere there was a grassy patch between a street and sidewalk. Pop-up cannabis dispensaries and Mexican pottery stores have taken over. Street signs like STOP or YIELD- all spray painted with profanity. But… still, young kids’ soccer games are still being scheduled and played downtown. The parents are blind to the truth. Portland used to be the city of roses. No longer true. The locals need to stop accepting Portland’s disastrous condition as its new normal.
@Poppy_Teryy Did anyone else, besides me, notice that former Veep Harris wore a lot of brown pantsuits? IMHO, I never thought that was a flattering color on her. Who was in charge of selecting her wardrobe?
Have you ever gone out for a nice dinner and when you appear ready to order the waiter or waitress says, “What are WE having tonight?” This Ai waiter even pulls up a chair.
