Vance casts El-Sayed as ‘evil’ and tells him to ‘keep my wife’s name the hell out of your mouth’

His sharp criticism of El-Sayed — which included telling the Democrat to “keep my wife’s name the hell out of your mouth” — underscored how heated the rhetoric has become in this competitive Senate race, which could be critical in the larger battle for control of the chamber

Evil is ripping healthcare away from working people in exchange for tax breaks for billionaires. Evil is making people pay more for groceries and gas while pushing for trade wars and actual war. Evil is dividing people for your own gain. Evil is selling out your morals for a little bit of power,

Thank God for making me Argentine. Vamos Argentina!”
I don't know what I'll do without you, I don't know how to go on. I just played football, and now I have serious doubts about continuing to do so for much longer,
I want to finish my career having won something with the Argentina national team. And if not, at least having tried every possible time. That’s the message for the kids who follow me. Not just for soccer, but for life. Because that’s what life is: stumbling, getting back up, and trying again. Fighting for your dream.”

I feel your pain vs. ‘let Data Reign’: How Trump and his VP are out of step on data centers

Donald Trumppresident
The only reason that communities throughout the U.S.A. should not want Data Centers is if they want to end up being backwards and poor,
