No doubt, it’s just the “D” word wouldn’t be official until, oh, about the 2028 presidential conventions.

It takes 3 years of recession to become a depression. It won’t be declared before the midterms, and I hope it doesn’t happen at all, but those chickens may come home to roost right as the next presidential election starts to get into full swing.

Dianna Cowern, a science educator on YouTube, has been out of commission for years with long COVID. She has just been starting to make some serious progress on recovery in the last six months or so. I hope this doesn’t set her back.

He gets his own song, too. possibly the only person to be lead vocalist in a Disney movie song and be a regular on a Star Trek series. (Which, admittedly, is a very specific statistic.)

Counter example: OJ Simpson wasn’t convicted in criminal court, but he lost the civil case brought by the victims’ families. If I recall from Trump’s various cases, there’s actually a lower burden of proof on civil cases. For a criminal case, you need to be found guilty beyond the shadow of a doubt. In a civil case, it’s just a preponderance of the evidence. (More likely than not.)
