Communicate..



In a couple relationship, a "cause and effect" refers to a situation where one action or behavior (the "cause") directly leads to a specific outcome or reaction (the "effect") within the dynamic between partnersessentially, one person's behavior influences the other's response, creating a chain reaction within the relationship. 
  • Cause: Constant criticism from one partner towards the other.
  • Effect: The criticized partner feels disrespected and withdraws emotionally from the relationship. 
     
  • Relationships are complex, and often multiple factors can contribute to a single effect, making it difficult to pinpoint a single "cause." 
  • Cause and effect can lead to positive outcomes like increased trust and intimacy when actions are supportive, or negative outcomes like conflict and resentment when behaviors are harmful. 
  • Open and honest communication can help partners identify and address potential causes of negative effects in their relationship. 

Defeat..



During his four years as president, Democrat Joe Biden experienced a sustained series of defeats at the U.S. Supreme Court, whose ascendant conservative majority blew holes in his agenda and dashed precedents long cherished by American liberals.

The justices blocked Biden's $430 billion student loan relief plan in 2023. They also limited the Environmental Protection Agency's reach as part of a series of rulings curbing the power federal regulatory agencies.

Biden's presidency ends on Monday with Trump's inauguration for a second term.

Comment:
The Biden Administration have known clearly that all these progressive plans will not go appropriately, or legally with the Supreme Court decisions. 

All these issues have been discussed before, and the outcome was clear.   Just a thought.

Impressed..

 


Bill Gates told The Wall Street Journal he was “impressed” after a recent three-hour meeting with President-elect Donald Trump in a short clip the paper released Friday.
 Multibillionaire and ex-Microsoft CEO Bill Gates joined President-elect Donald Trump for dinner, where they engaged in a wide-ranging discussion of topics including public health, finding a cure for HIV, and how to combat polio in developing countries. 
The Journal released a preview of its sit-down with Gates and teased the rest of the interview would be released next week after Trump’s inauguration.
Just a thought.

Punitive..


 A Panama City, Florida, jury ruled that CNN had defamed security contractor Zachary Young when it aired a 2021 report that said he was part of a “black market” that price-gouged those attempting to flee Afghanistan after the U.S. military withdrew from the country. 

CNN’s lawyers—and many of its employees—argued it viewed the term as “unregulated” markets, not criminal ones, according to The Washington Post.

The six-person jury awarded $5 million to Young, who claimed the Nov. 2021 CNN report ruined his professional reputation.

The jury also awarded Young punitive damages. CNN subsequently reached a settlement with Young, the trial’s judge confirmed Friday afternoon, averting further legal proceedings to determine the extent of these damages.

New Era..

 

After all the attempts by the Democratic party elite to prevent this man from becoming the President of the United States he comes back by the American People. 

Two time impeachments, multiple prosecutions, and continue name calling of Hitler era likes names.

That supported by Media, not sure why except to show some power over the people's choice. 
Here it is. The Man is back.   Just a thought.

Skip..

 



Former Mayor Bill de Blasio’s attempt to skip out on paying nearly $500,000 in restitution and fines for sticking taxpayers with the bill for his NYPD detail during his failed 2020 presidential run was struck down Tuesday by a state Supreme Court judge.

Judge Shah abud deen Abid Ally tossed out de Blasio’s suit, calling his claims that mayors are exempt from the city’s charter laws and that he was not responsible for security decisions “meritless.”

The city’s Conflicts of Interest Board ruled in June 2023 that de Blasio would have to pay back $319,794.20 – and a $155,000 fine – for travel, meal and lodging expenses for his police detail, who traveled with him and his family as soon as he announced his bid for the White House in May 2019.

Unfortunate..

 


People get divorced at a high rate due to a variety of reasons, including lack of commitment, unrealistic expectations about marriage, poor communication, infidelity, financial stress, growing apart over time, significant differences in values or lifestyles, unresolved conflict, and sometimes even marrying too young without sufficient preparation for the complexities of a long-term relationshipessentially, when couples struggle to effectively navigate challenges and maintain a healthy level of intimacy and compatibility, divorce can become a result.

Almost 50 percent of all marriages in the United States will end in divorce or separation.

According to most statistics, around 67% of second marriages end in divorce, while approximately 73% of third marriages fail, meaning the failure rate significantly increases with each subsequent marriage.

The average length of a second marriage ending in divorce is typically around 7-8 years.

That doesn't exactly make you want to run to the altar.
