DEATH AND DIGNITY ACT ALLOWS TERMINALLY ILL TO DIE
What is going on with this World 🌎 and especially in America. Human Beings Can NOW Set The Time and Day To Die. Need to read this story about a man setting the time and day of his death in Seattle Washington. The Death with Dignity Act refers to legislation that allows terminally ill adults to receive prescribed medication to end their life in a humane and dignified manner under specific circumstances. How long do you have to live in New Jersey to qualify for Death with Dignity? The answer is six months. The Act defines “terminally ill” as “the terminal stage of an irreversibly fatal illness, disease, or condition with a prognosis, based upon reasonable medical certainty, of a life expectancy of six months or less.
Here are some key points about Death with Dignity laws:
Purpose:
- Provides mentally capable, terminally ill adults the option of requesting a doctor’s prescription for life-ending medication if they meet certain criteria.
- Intended to allow these individuals to die on their own terms with a peaceful death if suffering becomes unbearable.
Common Provisions:
- Patient must be an adult resident of the state with a terminal illness diagnosis of 6 months or less to live.
- Patient must be judged mentally capable and acting voluntarily by two doctors.
- There is typically a waiting period and multiple requests required.
- Doctors, healthcare providers, and institutions can opt out of participating.
States with Death with Dignity Laws:
- Oregon was the first state to pass a Death with Dignity Act in 1997.
- Other states that have since passed similar laws include Washington, Vermont, California, Colorado, Hawaii, New Jersey, and Washington D.C.
Arguments in Favor:
- Provides terminal patients autonomy and relief from suffering at the end of life.
- Death with dignity is a personal choice for mentally sound individuals.
- Laws have safeguards and requirements meant to prevent abuse or coercion.
Arguments Against:
- Devalues human life and could lead to coercing people to end their lives prematurely.
- Possibility of wrongful terminal diagnoses or lack of available treatment options.
- Concern that vulnerable groups like the poor or disabled may feel pressured to choose death.
Debate continues around expanding or restricting such laws based on ethical, moral, and legal considerations in different states and countries.

Illinois is losing taxpayers by the tens of thousands. People who lived in the state for generations are calling it quits and planning on relocating to another low tax taxed with affordable housing and a lower cost of living. Many Illinoisians have no choice but to live in Illinois because of careers, family, or because they call Illinois home no matter how bad the state of the economy is. Chicago is one of the most beautiful cities in the world if not the most beautiful. In this sub-forum, I like to cover why are people fleeing Illinois and what the opinions of our viewers are where we can save this great state from going further down hill. Here is an article recently updated on the state of economy of Illinois. Here is the link Why Are People Fleeing Illinois?

JP MORGAN CHASE CEO Jamie Dimon Warns of a major real estate crisis lingering in the coming weeks and months.

One of the frequently asked questions from taxpayers is how long does it take the IRS to process my federal income tax refund check?
If you file a complete and accurate paper federal income tax return, your federal income tax refund should be issued in about six to eight weeks from the date the Internal Revenue Service receives your income tax return. If you file your federal income tax return electronically, your refund should be issued in less than three weeks, even faster when you choose direct deposit.
The processing time for a check submitted to the IRS can vary depending on several factors, including the volume of checks received, the accuracy of the information provided, and any potential delays in mail delivery. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks for the IRS to process a check. However, with the increasing use of electronic payment methods, such as online payments and direct debit, the IRS encourages taxpayers to use these faster and more efficient options whenever possible. If you’re concerned about the status of your payment, you can check the IRS website or contact them directly for assistance. The time it takes for the IRS to process your check can vary depending on several factors, such as the time of year, the volume of payments being processed, and the accuracy of the information on your check and tax return. Generally, you can expect the following:
- If you mailed your check with your tax return, it may take the IRS up to 6-8 weeks to process your return and your payment.
- If you mailed your check separately from your tax return, it may take up to 3-4 weeks for the IRS to process your payment.
- If you sent your check close to the tax deadline (usually April 15), processing times may be longer due to the high volume of returns and payments received by the IRS during this period.
- If there are any errors or discrepancies on your check or tax return, processing times may be extended while the IRS contacts you for clarification or correction.
To check the status of your payment, you can use the IRS “Where’s My Refund?” tool on their website (if you’re expecting a refund) or call the IRS directly at 1-800-829-1040. Be sure to have your Social Security number, filing status, and the exact amount of your payment ready when you call.

The Francis Scott Key Bridge, often referred to simply as the Key Bridge, is a prominent bridge located in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. It spans the Patapsco River, connecting the neighborhoods of Baltimore City with Anne Arundel County. The bridge was named after Francis Scott Key, who wrote the lyrics to “The Star-Spangled Banner,” the national anthem of the United States. Construction of the Key Bridge began in 1972, and it opened to traffic in 1977. It is a vital transportation link, carrying Interstate 695 (the Baltimore Beltway) across the river.
As of my last update in March 27th, 2024, there were reported incidents of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsing and being done intentionally by a ship navigated by a Ukrainian Ship Captain. There have been many developments since then and Maryland Governor Westmoreland’s asshole is puckering because first thing out of his month is it seems that is was an accident with no foul play. Why would he even say that in such an early stage of the investigation. I would recommend consulting recent news sources from reputable media neworks for the latest information.
The Maryland Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse was a black swan event per former Army General Michael Flynn says Clayton Morris, previous host of WEEKENDS ON FOX NEWS and now the host and owner of REDACTED NEWS. What is a Black Swan Event asks Clayton Morris? A black swan event is a term used to describe an unpredictable event that has significant and widespread consequences. Coined by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his book “The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable,” these events are characterized by their extreme rarity, their severe impact, and the tendency for people to rationalize them in hindsight as if they were predictable.
The term “black swan” originates from the belief in Europe that all swans were white, as all historical records confirmed this, until the discovery of black swans in Australia challenged that assumption. Thus, a black swan event represents a surprise that has a major impact and is often explained or rationalized after the fact, despite the fact that it was not anticipated beforehand.
Examples of black swan events include the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the 2008 financial crisis, and the COVID-19 pandemic. These events were highly unexpected, had profound effects on society and the economy, and were difficult to predict using conventional forecasting methods. Michael Flynn is a retired United States Army Lieutenant General who served as the 25th National Security Advisor to President Donald Trump from January 20 to February 13, 2017. Born on December 24, 1958, in Middletown, Rhode Island, Flynn graduated from the University of Rhode Island in 1981 with a Bachelor of Science degree in management science.
Flynn’s military career spanned over three decades. He served in various positions, specializing in intelligence and counterterrorism. Notably, he served as the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) from July 2012 to August 2014. Flynn’s tenure at the DIA was marked by controversy, including clashes with the Obama administration over his management style and views on radical Islam.
After retiring from the military in 2014, Flynn became involved in politics. He emerged as an outspoken critic of the Obama administration’s foreign policy, particularly regarding its approach to combating terrorism. Flynn became a close advisor to Donald Trump during his 2016 presidential campaign, advocating for a more aggressive stance on national security issues.
Following Trump’s victory in the 2016 presidential election, Flynn was appointed as National Security Advisor. However, his tenure was brief and marred by controversy. He resigned from his position after less than a month amidst allegations that he misled Vice President Mike Pence and other administration officials about his communications with Russian officials before Trump took office.
Flynn’s legal troubles continued after leaving the White House. In December 2017, he pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with the Russian ambassador to the United States during the presidential transition period. However, in May 2020, the Department of Justice moved to dismiss the charges against Flynn, citing misconduct by the FBI.
Throughout his career, Michael Flynn has been a polarizing figure, admired by some for his military service and strong stance on national security issues, while criticized by others for his controversial statements and actions. His biography reflects a complex mix of military service, political involvement, and legal controversies. Expect more man made natural disasters happening in the coming weeks and months because the Democrats are definitely panicking.

Onpage SEO, also known as on-site SEO, refers to the optimization of a website’s individual web pages in order to improve its search engine ranking and visibility. This includes optimizing content, meta tags, images, internal links, and other elements on a website to make it more attractive to search engines.
To effectively implement onpage SEO, here are some important tasks that need to be done:
1. Keyword research: Identify relevant keywords that your target audience is using to search for your products or services. Use tools like Google Keyword Planner or SEMrush to find popular and relevant keywords.
2. Optimize title tags: The title tag is an HTML element that defines the title of a web page. It is displayed in search engine results as the clickable headline for a given result. Make sure to include your target keyword in the title tag and keep it under 60 characters.
3. Optimize meta descriptions: Meta descriptions are short snippets that appear below the title tag in search engine results. They provide a brief description of the content on the page and can influence a user’s decision to click through to your website. Make sure to include your target keyword and keep it under 160 characters.
4. Optimize heading tags: Heading tags (H1, H2, H3, etc.) are used to structure content on a webpage. They not only help search engines understand the content on a page, but they also make it easier for users to read. Use your target keyword in at least one heading tag.
5. Optimize images: Images can also be optimized for SEO by using descriptive file names and alt text. Alt text is used to describe an image for visually impaired users and it also helps search engines understand the content of an image.
6. Use internal linking: Internal linking helps search engines understand the structure of your website and how pages are related to each other. It also helps distribute link equity throughout your site. Link to relevant pages within your website using descriptive anchor text.
7. Create high-quality, relevant content: Content is a crucial element of onpage SEO. Create high-quality, relevant and engaging content that incorporates your target keywords naturally. This will not only help with SEO but also keep your audience interested and engaged.
8. Improve website speed: Website speed is an important ranking factor for search engines. Optimize your website’s speed by compressing images, using caching and reducing the number of HTTP requests.
By implementing these tasks, you can improve your website’s onpage SEO and increase its visibility and ranking on search engines. It is an ongoing process, so regularly review and update your website’s onpage SEO to stay ahead of the competition.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are the two largest purchasers of mortgage loans on the secondary market. However, there are buyers of mortgage loans on the secondary mortgage market who purchase mortgage loans from multiple smaller mortgage bankers.
Middle-level mortgage bankers will purchase mortgages from dozens of small to mid-sized lenders and package them up in bulks as mortgage-backed securities, often referred to as MBS.
The middle-level regional mortgage bankers will then sell the mortgage loans they purchase from smaller mortgage bankers and correspondent lenders and sell them to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will not purchase mortgage loans that do not conform to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac Guidelines. This is why conventional loans are called conforming loans.
