You can buy a live ostrich for 4,000 yuan –about $580 — at Dazhong Livestock and Game in the Wuhan Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market. Well, you could a few weeks ago. Maybe not now.
President Trump Fighting Robocalls — One of the more destructive aspects of the connected globe is robocalls, something many of us have despairingly accepted as a fact of life.
Not President Trump.
His Justice Department is going pedal to the metal against these cretins.
On Jan. 28, it sought court orders restraining two groups of companies — one operating in New York and one in Arizona — from facilitating fraudulent calls most of which originate in India.
One of the Arizona companies carried 720 million calls over 23 days.
Yesterday, Jan. 29, the Federal Trade Commission — which is now controlled by Republicans — gave notice to 19 internet-based phone companies that facilitating robocalls will land them in legal trouble.
Thank you President Trump.
Why didn’t Obama do this?
Pelosi Stopping Fentanyl Ban; What’s Up With That? — The satirical Twitter account @RepStevenSmith — yes, it’s satire — asked last night (Jan. 29) Do the Democrats work for El Chapo?
We asked the same question a year ago.
We weren’t joking.
The House has strangely been dragging its feet to extend a ban on certain types of fentanyl. The House, of course, is the chamber of Congress controlled by the D party and run by Nancy Pelosi.
The ban expires Feb. 6.
The Senate has already passed the extension.
Seriously Nancy, what is your problem with stopping fentanyl?
Hey Mary Gay Scanlon, you OK with this?
@RepStevenSmith included the below video of a Jan. 28 press conference by Republican House members. The congresswoman is Debbie Lesko who represents Arizona’s 8th District.
UPDATE: We have been informed that the House did extend the ban 7:20 p.m. last night (Jan. 29) by a vote of 320-88. All dissenters were Democrats except for Congressman Thomas Massie (R-Ky4) . Mary Gay Scanlon (D-Pa5) was among those opposing the Fentanyl Ban extension.
