1. The first version of this story, which was printed on A1, is falling apart, so the NYT is back at it.

Anything to make Rudy happy, I guess
2. NYT doesn’t mention that the timeline of this story has been debunked. Biden sought the ouster of the Ukrainian prosecutor after the case involving his son had gone dormant
3. Vogel also doesn’t mention that his Ukrainian source is accusing him of misrepresenting the facts
4. The entire story is a cluster that has no through line at all but it looks like as long as Rudy is willing to take a trip to Ukraine it’s “news” and somehow related to the Mueller report
5. The entire thing discredits the NYT and their accurate reporting on the Mueller investigation. It’s the product of a system that rewards success and ignores failure
6. The real headline here is that TRUMP is seeking the assistance of a foreign government to undermine his top political opponent. And just doing it right out in the open this time

1. Dear @BenSabaHasan:

You are @Walmart's Chief Culture Diversity & Inclusion Officer.

But your company donated thousands to the politicians behind Alabama's abortion ban.

2. Two questions for @BenSabaHasan:

Will @Walmart continue to donate to politicians advocating to ban abortions even in cases of rape and incest?

Will @Walmart seeks refunds from Speaker McCutcheon, Ledbetter and Reed?

Going to read “The Right Side of History”. This will be some mixture of enlightening, been there done that, and hate-read dunkathon. Let’s see.

No idea what Shapiro’s background is outside trolling libs, but I maybe he’s sort of Straussian? The ‘Jerusalem plus Athens’ thing.
So the thesis is ‘things have never been better, but we’re fucking it up now.’ Pinker + angst.
‘We’ in the book is Americans, natch.

#Story ...
1.’Dada ‘ was actually the name of the Dutch company that imported Fake Ghee Called ‘vanaspati ghee ‘ into India in the 1930s as a cheap substitute for Pure ‘desi ghee ‘ Which was prepared from cow or Buffalo milk in India 🤔
2. Desi Ghee was locally made product sustaining Indian Economy-on other hand-So Called ‘Vanaspati ghee’was a type of vegetable shortening made up of hydrogenated or highly saturated vegetable oil and made to just’mimic desi Ghee’🤔!

It was a Fake Product to fool the Indians 😎
3. Proper ‘Desi Ghee ‘ was expensive & Lever Brothers, now Unilever (Hindustan Unilever in India), knew there was a market for a substitute for desi ghee, since many Indians could barely afford Ghee in those days 😨

Friends, lets take a few minutes to talk about what's really going on right now with the democratic party. While Nancy and Chuck are being used to stop our president from building a wall, and border security, the democratic party is falling apart at the seams. Literally!
There are many people who work in government who want to keep their jobs. But at this rate, they will have to quit to find jobs just to pay their bills. They are pressuring both Nancy and Chuck to just give the president the wall. Many democrats in congress are feeling the heat!
As the days go by, more and more democrats are pressuring Nancy and Chuck to just give in. Its costing them millions. As long as this goes on, many will not support them. Without government being open, their little shady deals can't be done. They are falling apart.

Gabriel is gone for awhile after that. Reaper assumes he's sleeping- perhaps too exhausted to haunt his dreams.

It gives him time to think. Time to prepare.

His secret is going to come out eventually. He needs to be ready. There's a packed duffle under his bed just in case.
He has regular visits with Dr. Ziegler as she keeps him on the road to recovery.

Whatever that is.

He's not so exhausted anymore and his training is much easier.

He still hasn't talked to Jack. Jesse tells him that he's okay.

"He's Jack. He'll come back from anything."
It's not long before he's being taken on missions.

He knew it would come, and it hit him with relief when he received his first proposal.

They'd given him a choice of course, and he took it without thought. He needed to be valuable and this was his way in.
