  1. I met Expect Nickie love 333 last year for the first time at a conference in New York City. I invested €24,000 and traded in one month making close to €200,000……

    1. I’m done sitting right for the reward advance since I acquire $24,000 every 12days of my investment
      All thanks to Nickie love333

  2. I get emergency but why cleanup? People choose to live on the beach. I have sympathy but the Biden needs to stop spending other people’s money and acting like he’s doing anything

  3. No, the government isn’t paying. Tax payers are covering all of the costs. Doesn’t matter of the home owner is rich. Tax payers will pay.

  4. I sympathise with the victims of Hurricane Ian and believe that those who purchased flood insurance should have their claims paid. At the same time, allowing a program to increase its debt by billions of dollars with no plan to offset the spending with cuts elsewhere is not fiscally responsible.
