My neighbors down at the end of the block went bankrupt. Word is, he had a gambling problem and made a lot of bad decisions. House went up as a foreclosure. It seems like his wife didn’t rise up and divorce him.

You know what I didn’t do? I didn’t kick down their front door, shoot the Dad, find them a new man to run their house, and pay all their bills.
Just like Jesus, sometimes I speak in parables.

You do however understate things a bit. I had a neighbor who went bust too - he gambled his money away completely. Turns out the medication he was on had the side effect of inducing manic behavior . . .

That is one thing. Running a slave plantation is another.

"Trump's really hawkish" on Venezuela, the hawkish Graham added in a phone interview on Sunday afternoon, adding that Trump was even more hawkish than he was on Venezuela.
That might have been Graham speaking out of turn - or it might be what he and Trump agreed that Graham would say to put pressure on Maduro. As I said, the best case result does not happen without such.
