Lunar New Year 農曆新年 marks the first day of the year in the lunar calendar. The celebration generally runs for 15 days, with each day having special meaning and traditions to honor. The days' significance and customs vary between regions and beliefs. Many of the meanings also come from legends and folktales passed down from generation to generation. Among the many myths, there is one about Nüwa 女媧, the goddess who created the world. It is believed that she spent the first six days creating animals, the seventh-day creating humans, and the eighth day creating grains.

US Senate votes to acquit former President Trump on an article of impeachment for "incitement of insurrection." After voting to acquit, #MoscowMitch McConnell was slamming Trump for his lies leading up to Jan 6 and the violence at the Capitol. McConnell’s vote to convict could have changed everything, but he may have left his spine in Kentucky.

There are explanations why Trump is sitting at home on his gold toilet while his lawyers speak for him, instead of personally testifying.

He is not participating in his own Senate trial because he may end up on a criminal trial and is scared of showing up and saying anything at his impeachment trial that can be used to convict him.

Take notice of how real damning this #USA #TRUMP trial is, it airs live on #ABC #NBC #PBS #CNN #CBS. #Fox News the only cutaway?

Senators never realized how close they came to life and death danger. Will #Republicans let #LameDuck Trump off the hook?

After all is said and done and in the final analysis, our #USA government, the system of checks and balances as well as the courts did work as bulwarks against  #Republican Trump's creeping authoritarianism.

Who was a one-term Lame-duck full-time golfer and should have could have, would have been a president for all the people of USA?

There is nothing grand about a Republican party that boasts 44 Republican Senators who reject the truth, the Constitution, and a couple of hundred years of Democratic Self Governance.

The president of the whole Mar-a-Lago Club digs a deeper hole that may be difficult to escape even for a BS artist and demagogue.

For thousands of years, the average lifespan of a human being was approximately 40 years. it takes about two decades to grow up and be fully ready to reproduce. Then the offspring come along, and it takes another 20 years to get them ready to leave the nest and repeat the real life cycle.

Too many times we have seen the following messages... Thank you for your recent application to the young workers' role.

The US Senate begins former president Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial today in an unprecedented Congressional action.

Trump failed more than 60 court challenges in his false narrative that our election was stolen, so why does he keep lying about it? 
If Senate Republicans wanted to they could unite this great nation by convicting Donald Trump showing he is a no good liar
