Not just impeachment: Democrats plan year-end legislative blitz by Susan Ferrechio

Not just impeachment: Democrats plan year-end legislative blitz by Susan Ferrechio  |Wary of polls showing battleground state voters are frowning on the impeachment effort in Congress, House Democrats are planning a legislative blitz this week that they’ll be able to tout when they return home for the holidays. The House will take a historic vote next week to impeach President Trump, only the third such vote in history. But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has also packed the schedule with critical legislation that will allow Democratic lawmakers to show constituents the party is working on its “For the People Agenda” and not just impeaching Trump. The House will vote on legislation to fund the government for the fiscal year, which will dodge a government shutdown, and lawmakers will also likely vote on a long-awaited, major trade deal between the United States, Mexico, and Canada that proponents say will boost the U.S. economy and create thousands of jobs. The impeachment vote w...

The collapse of the Soviet state left people out of technology and the absence of industrial safety

Photo courtesy of Wikipedia - the nuclear reactor after the disaster The collapse of the Soviet state left people out of technology and the absence of industrial safety I estimate that the collapse of the Soviet Union fulfilled its conditions when the disaster of the Soviet Union occurred. The Chernobyl disaster is a catastrophic radiological nuclear accident that occurred in reactor No. 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. On Saturday, April 26, 1986, near the city of Pripyat in the north of Soviet Ukraine, it is the largest nuclear disaster the world has ever seen. It occurred when approximately 200 employees were working at the nuclear power reactor (1,2,3) while a simulation and experiment operation was being performed in the fourth unit where the explosion occurred. The factor of the reactor structure also contributed to the explosion, as the control of the nuclear process was carried out with columns of graphite. While the team leader paid attention to the danger and tried...

Edomite Kings List: Is It Post-Mosaic? --Dr. RabbiZev Farber

Edomite Kings List: Is It Post-Mosaic? Dr. RabbiZev Farber Genesis 36:31 introduces a list of kings who ruled “before a king ruled in Israel,” ostensibly a reference to Saul. Traditional commentators, committed to the Mosaic authorship of the Torah, have long struggled to reinterpret this phrase against its plain meaning, though some accepted its implications. Genesis 36: Collection of Lists About Esau, Edom, and Seir After reporting the death of Isaac and before beginning the Joseph cycle, the Torah includes a long excursus on the sons and clans of Esau and Seir. The chapter begins with an introductory statement that it will report on the generations of Esau, who is Edom (v. 1), then lists Esau’s wives (vv. 2–3) and sons (vv. 4–5). At that point, we are told why Esau moved away from Jacob and went to Seir. Giving a final description of the future of a scion of the Abrahamic family outside of the Israelite covenantal core is standard fare in Genesis; it gives the Israelite reade...
