Lurch is a DBag of the highest order, he is not to be trusted and should be shunned and removed from office at the first possible moment.

Parading around in the flag of Israel is a stunt of disgusting proportions and it is designed to garner clicks and votes, he will stab the entire nation of Israel in the back as soon as he gets the chance.

He won’t switch parties. But it’s worth noting that political party affiliation means less in Pennsylvania than it does in most states.

Probably a lipoma.

You can look up

The truth is, a rival US company called Cleveland-Cliffs is trying to take over USS. This Nippon bid is probably an attempt by USS to see if they can get a higher bid from Cleveland.

Real question

Do you want the company and assets to leave the country?

Fetterman is an idiot, but this is not a good thing.

US Steel sent a lot of it’s products to Japan via bombers. Japan may not talk about it, but they have not forgotten.

He is probably just running for reelection. Lately he sounds like he does have a brain.

Hahahaha. Yea. Us Steel is on the verge of bankruptcy… what utter nonsense

Political ideological dogma can be checked at the door

US Steel is a profitable if smaller enterprise it is not on the verge of collapse. It’s shrunk size does make it a prime acquisition candidate for other players but hardly are they on the verge of closing down

That is surprising for an American politician to want to keep a main industry owned by Americans.

It was a lipoma. My sister, RN-NP, operated on a number of them, at the Kaiser Permanente clinic at UCSF, but I’d forgotten the medical name. Thx.

It was a fatty, subcutaneous cyst; it was removed surgically.

Interesting? When was that done? Was the cyst removed by a Penna doctor or a DC doctor? How long did he have the cyst before it was removed? Was a biopsy done on the mass? Is there a report that says it was benign? How do you know this information?

Confounding almost the entire investment community, the Japanese have continued to pour billions of dollars into United States real estate, a new study reported today.

The study also shows that the Japanese are no longer buying strictly top-of-the-line office towers in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Now, they are acquiring properties ranging from combined retail-and-office complexes to industrial warehouses and are venturing to cities where they have not spent heavily before, including Chicago, Atlanta and Boston.

The study, by Kenneth Leventhal & Company, a Los Angeles-based accounting and consulting firm, said Japanese investors spent $8.96 billion on real estate in this country from Jan. 1 to Aug. 31 and will spend $7.04 billion more by year-end. The eight-month figure is a record, as would be the $16 billion total for the year. Predictions Were Way Off.

However, this was a few years ago...

Fetterman has been saying some interesting things lately....

The real test will be what he has to say when CHINA wants to buy it.

What did President Truman threaten to do to the striking railroad workers?

How did Truman respond to striking workers in 1946?

As a result, on May 24, 1946, Truman issued an ultimatum declaring that the government would operate the railroads and use the army as strikebreakers.

When the deadline passed, Truman went before Congress to seek the power to deny seniority rights to strikers and to draft strikers into the armed forces.
