In the classic holiday film, It’s a Wonderful Life, the Bailey Brothers Building & Loan Association faced a run on the bank by customers spooked by rumors of theft and insolvency. (snip) None of this, however, appears to pique much of the media’s curiosity. Because the word “loan” was written on some of these documents, it is once again accepted by many at face value.

They damaged government property. So I don’t think we can have the credibility we need with the American public"

The American Ornithological Society (AOS) announced Wednesday it will be renaming dozens of birds to “address past wrongs,” according to the association’s website.

Venezuela’s top court suspended the results of opposition leader María Corina Machado’s victory in last week’s primary elections, stating that it must do so in order to collect information for an investigation into the primary organizers’ alleged identity theft, money laundering and conspiracy, Axios reported Monday.
A cat from my neighborhood has gone missing. Her owner has distributed fliers around the area, asking residents to keep an eye out for her. "LOST CAT," it says in big letters beneath a photo of Coco, a beautiful animal with fluffy white fur and blue eyes.
Whether the fliers will lead to Coco's recovery I don't know. But of one thing I am certain: No one walking through the neighborhood will be grabbing all the posters and stuffing them in the trash. Even people who dislike cats wouldn't be that callous and mean.

Republican presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suggested former President Donald Trump should be removed from the GOP primary if he is convicted in any of the cases against him.
“Do I think somebody under those circumstances could get elected president? The answer is no,” Mr. DeSantis told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Thursday. “That will not happen. I think that Republican voters will understand that as we get closer to voting.
