The thing of it is, the blue wave is African American. It is white. It is Latino. It is Asian-Pacific Islander,” she said, going through a diverse list of groups.

He said that these groups believe that global warming is proof that Armageddon will soon be upon us because the warming will cause massive droughts, floods, sea level rise, mass migrations, and consequent global strife and global wars.

The other two times I went I ate and drank some beers watching sports. I‘m not a fan of gambling. It isn’t for me.
