I'm not telling you what to believe...

Aleksandr Lukashenko declined the bid and claimed that he was unwilling to consider such an offer and would place his people above the IMF and World Bank needs. And that’s because, as we have seen till now, the IMF and the World Bank tactic includes the crash of every major economy to purchase the infrastructure of a country at a dollar cent. That is how financial aid is becoming a sustainable investment for the IMF and World Bank.
In dollar terms, Russian forest product imports into the United States increased 104% in 2021.
The U.S. imported just under half a Billion dollars worth of forest products from Russia in 2021 (US$ 459 Million). That’s compared to US$ 225 Million the year prior (Data source: Census Bureau).

I just wanted to point out that today the US Senate passed on to the House for voting a little thing called "Sunshine Protection Act"

Something I noticed though, if you read the act there is either some trickery afoot or a typo.
(G) by striking “10 hours;” and inserting “9 hours;”;
(H) by striking “11 hours” and inserting “10 hours”; and
(I) by striking “10 hours.” and inserting “11 hours.”.
This bill, if passed would basically allow the fall change of clocks to take place, and then after the springtime change happens next year then this bill would be in full swing. So if passed we would go into the dark of next winter, and after that we would head into the light and not have to play with time of day on our clocks again. I mean if that typo is fixed.
So is "KU"s "Dark to Light" in play if this passes?
