I'm old enough to remember the USS Cole attack and the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Africa. Last week Trump removed Sudan from the Terrorist List to broker a deal involving Israeli settlements in Trump's Middle East peace deal. The US seems to be conceding quite a bit. The WH used Sudan's regime change as a catalyst to lift sanctions.

Makes me wonder how other Trump minions treat their govt staff. Especially Ivanka and Jared, wonder what tasks their Secret Service detail is asked to do?

@Lindy I have to tweet this!
HiRISE 8K: Hematite in Eos Chasma
On Mars, grey hematite may help prove whether large amounts of liquid water ever flowed on the surface. Deposits of grey hematite are typically found in places where there has been standing water or mineral hot springs, such as those in Yellowstone here on Earth.
Yes New Zealand does have quarantine camps. New York had them during the TB outbreak. The success New Zealand and has both economic and with the pandemic are interesting. From what I read they aren’t permanent.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
@Render is the fire coming out of the engines normal? Or is there a big WTF going on in the cockpit?

@BreakingNews The article implies Alito is leaving the door open for further moves against states election laws by SCOTUS immediately after the election, hinting that it could possibly influence the results of the election. Not good. They could at least wait a couple of days for tempers to cool.

@gshevlin we lost 2 older family members last week. One dropped dead in the middle of the night after getting out of bed for some reason. 2 days later we discovered the 2 teens living with them have COVID. The other was too old and ill and the hospital was completely overrun so they sent him home(no COVID19 just too many ill people). COVID is real and people are dying.
