The strongest week since back to april. However, you have to put that in context. Two weeks ago was a lousy week in fact, two weeks ago the dow lost just over 1800 points, down by 1833 points last week the dow was up by 1821 points so that was a giveback for the dow kind of starting things over if you look at the other major averages, they got back much more ground than they had lost the previous week. Last week the s p was up 329 points after being down 195 the week before and the nasdaq was up by 983 points last week after losing 636 points the week before but again these gains this morning are significant ones they are adding to what we saw last week.

Also in that interview, the president says he will not budge on the 1,400 stimulus checks but maybe taking a more targeted approach on exactly who will receive those checks. I will talk with Congressman Ro about covid relief in just a moment. Today marks one month since the attack of capit

A, a new school house will sit on one side voice on their astonishing passages from the bible in only touching their way at this morning. The youngest children and then in the alphabet i look at the letter. I am pointing to god the older children are reading the new testament, printed in front to a traditional german script and not to history, geography or foreign languages. The bible is the only text book saying, and baden, i teach them to read, saying, pray, recite poetry right here, count. Thats it. The children begin their schooling at age 6 and finish when the 13th long enough to learn the basics. But this is what we learned from when i went to school when the father of my grandfather, one of our with no university, is not an ai. So college or anythin

What i like best is they really care about me, like, im not alone, and i have a group of people that i can go to, and, also, surfing is fun. Were creating surfers, and were changing the face of surfing. The feeling is definitely akin to being on a roller coaster. Its definitely faster than i think you expect it to be, but its definitely fun. It leaves you feeling really, really positive about what that kids going to go out and do.
