With time running out before the end of Congress’s current session, there’s one tool that President Donald Trump could use to block a new stimulus bill without outright rejecting it: a pocket veto. As Fox News reporter Chad Pergram explains, the name of this veto comes from presidents’ ability to effectively table bills and put them in their “pocket.” As laid out in the Constitution, if the president does not sign a bill within 10 days of receiving it (excluding Sundays) and Congress adjourns during that time, the bill is considered vetoed...

If you're a cat owner, you'll know the critters can be picky eaters. Unfortunately for one man, his cat chose something very expensive to snack on — his degree. Taking to Twitter on Monday (Dec 21) to share the aftermath, Malaysian Afif Adlan Mohd Hanafiah raged: "My cat f****** ate my degree!!!!!!!" Sharing a photo of the Bachelor of Science degree, completely shredded in one corner, Afif marvelled that his cat Mika had chosen to munch on it out of all the other "useless papers" in his room. "It's like he f******* knew." But as Afif's tweet blew up to...

Google has pulled the plug on Android Things, the operating system designed for low-energy Internet of Things devices and announced just a couple of years ago. One of the biggest problems of the IoT space is the incredible fragmentation of the software and operating systems. With each company doing its own thing for its own hardware, the advent of Android Things promised to unite many companies under the same umbrella. Announced in 2015 and launched in 2018, Android Things stayed online for only a couple of years. Many companies apparently didn’t want to be trapped in the Google ecosystem, so...

What should a proper Covid-19 stimulus bill look like? Well, the one thing we know for sure is that the current one isn’t it. After nine to ten months of partial to complete shutdowns, $600 per person isn’t enough to provide much help. President Trump is right to press Congress for a higher figure. Government caused this problem, so it makes sense for government to do something to help solve it. That being said, however, what is the right “something”, both short term and long term? Short term, an infusion of cash in the form of a tax credit for...

Many experts believe that Vice President Mike Pence has the duty to throw out electoral college recommendations in the 2020 election that are based on fraud. This will then force these states to have their legislatures choose the set of delegates they believe will best represent the state’s election results. Ivan Raiklin has studied the Constitution and found some absolutely fascinating information. He is reporting that a peaceful and Constitutionally lawful resolution to the situation we are in is at hand and may begin today. page 1

Dear friends, the Lord Jesus' first coming overwhelmingly confirms the Rapture and His GLORIOUS Second Coming (Gen. 22:18; Isa. 7:14; 9:6-7; 11:1; Jer. 23:5-6; Matt. 3:1-3; Mark 1:14; Luke 3:1-6; John 1:14; Gal. 4:4; Heb. 10:4-9; Rev. 12:1-5)! If ALL of the prophecies of old, ALL came to pass at Christ's birth and first coming; then it should be a great comfort and overwhelming witness to all, that ALL of the prophecies of the Rapture and Second Coming will indeed also come to pass as well! Yet how many so-called Christians reject outright these two crucial teachings of what will...

Beloved, I love Christmas and all the wondrous Bible verses of hope! Just before the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ despair was an epidemic and hopelessness super abounding! For those who trusted in the Lord is such oppressive days, their hope was a burning fire within their hearts that kept them fresh and vibrate! Anna and Simeon and the Wise men of old were great witnesses of hope in such dark days (Matt. 2:12; Luke 2:25-40)! Anna and Simeon and the Wise men of old were great witnesses of hope in such dark days! Today is no different! Our...

U.S. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has got a lot of problems with you people. And today, you’re gonna hear about them. Paul posted his annual online salute to government waste as part of today’s Festivus celebration. He issued a 139-page “Festivus Report” that airs his grievances about $54 billion of federal spending he sees as “totally wasted money.” Festivus, for the uninitated, was a noncommercial holiday made up by Frank Costanza (played by Jerry Stiller) on the classic Seinfeld sitcom. Each December 23, Costanza, rejecting the crass commercialism that has built up around the Christmas holiday, opted for a Festivus...
