  • That there wasn’t a single mainstream Republican who stood up to Trump during his presidency.

    I mean, come on. Who wrote this?

    We’re supposed to believe that EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN in government went from taking about how unfit Trump was when he was a candidate … to standing behind him 100% even when he cozied up to Russia, paid hush money to a porn star, and lied about a Presidential election?








  • Pan-seared sea scallops.

    The key here is to get good scallops which were flash frozen, NOT stored in liquid.

    All you need is a good skillet, a hot flame, and several tablespoons of good quality butter.

    Watch a bunch of videos for various techniques. My preferred method is just basting them in butter.

    Don’t crowd the pan. Don’t burn the butter. Don’t overcook the scallops.

    Master this dish and you will always have a last-minute gourmet option.

    Serve with a mixed-green salad, grits, white wine.

    Perfect for date night because it is classy, satisfying, decadent, but also light, and won’t stain your clothes if it you happen to have a slip.

    Note: the quality of this dish 100% depends on the quality of the scallops.

    Sometimes, even when you pay top dollar, you can get a batch that are really bland.

    Good news is that generally you can get great frozen ones from Costco, and keep them in your freezer, ready to go.

    If you have time, and a lot is riding on the meal, do a test scallop in advance to make sure it’s delicious. If it isn’t find a new plan.
