Biden Does NOT need a BILL to close the border
He only needs a PEN. Thats all he needed to open it.
Thats all he needed to close it. Thats all Trump needed.
Maybe this is just Proof Trump is better than Biden.

my brainiac younger brother (2 years), after trying for years, made it to jeopardy in the late 1980's at around age ?35
he won 3 days in a row...winning $35k and a trip to aruba...it was before they doubled the round 1 & 2 dollar amounts
 
he finished 2nd on day four
behind but within a chance to win on final jeopardy
he knew the answer but so did the person in front of him
he had run into trouble on 2 double jeopardy questions that put him behind

he stayed around to watch game 5
I believe jeopardy films the week's 5 days on 1 day
if he had made it to game 5 (it's hard to say how much he would have won going into final jeopardy)
but he knew the final answer...the other three players did not

he thought he would have won game 5...for a 5 game winner
and a chance to play for some bigger money in an end of the year play off

I wanted to add
"won $35k and a trip to aruba"
less fed/state taxes = 20% to 40%...depending on marginal fed and state tax rates

just like the VERY BIG LIE OF THE LOTTERY
gross winnings...less a 40% current value payout...LESS AT LEAST 35% TO 45% FED AND STATE INCOME TAXES

Yep. Too much taxes, indeed!! So cool though to read about these real life brainiac stories plus actually making cut &
being there ~someone so close. Hope you have it taped somehow-- the days when harder to keep track of for perpetuity.
