DOW just broke 40,000
First time ever. Biden should call a press conference to take credit. His economy is builot for working people, and when working people do well, so do investors.

At first I thought it might be the VPN I put on my phone but since safari works I ruled that out.

DDG has been fine for a long time and I use it for everything else but it won’t let me on CC.

Dutch, are you using a different browser or change anything else?

Sorry, no Ukrainian or Big-Bogey-Pharma conspiracy here.

The Fox News article is behind a registration wall, but MSN has it, https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/suspect-who-shot-slovakia-pm-fico-reveals-possible-motive-report/ar-BB1mv0UM , Suspect who shot Slovakia PM Fico reveals possible motive: report. From the article:

Quote
In a video that has surfaced on Facebook, a person who matched images of the man taken into custody Wednesday was heard saying "I do not agree with government policy," according to Reuters.

"Liquidated mass media. Why is [public broadcaster] RTVS being attacked?" the man reportedly continued, while also questioning the removal of the chairman of a state judicial council.

Slovakia’s government in late April had approved a controversial overhaul of the country's public radio and television services, a move that critics say would result in the government taking full control of the media.
...
Media in Slovakia say the suspect is a former shopping mall security guard and a member of a Slovak Society of Writers, according to Reuters.

So the guy is Slovak, not Ukrainian (contrary to some orcish troll's claim), and his motivation was Slovak domestic politics, not Russia vs. Ukraine or The Vaccine.

Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico is a visionary hero of Europe. He even knew that his populist policies could lead to an attempt on his life as you can see here. The perp who was apprehended in the assassination attempt even admitted that he shot Fico because he disagreed with his policies. An assassination attempt that came just days after Fico rejected the WHO pandemic accord. In addition, Fico also told the NATO Secretary General to his face that the slaughter in the killing fields of Ukraine must stop. The globalist media has been attempting to paint Fico as some sort of dangerous right-winger yet Fico is the one who wants peace and see that the senseless proxy war be brought to an end.

So, yeah, Fico was definitely shot for obviously political reasons.

 :hi5: and QFT, though OhBummer! and Slick Willy probably were worse than JEC.

JEC was an awful POTUS, and late in life gave full voice to his antisemitism. IMO, the latter has outweighed his work for Habitat for Humanity.

Let me make this pellucidly clear re Jimmy Carter
Unlike Smelvis the SF Slobfather aka Don Poorleone the Nodfather, you are loved and respected. Eff the oil barons, history will be kind to you.

That is all

Translation: I will tell Carter he's great and loved, but spend more words insulting Trump than making what  I claim is my point. 

BTW, history has already not been kind to Carter, at least not his presidency.  Yes, by most accounts he's a nice guy, but he's been consistently ranked as the worst president for a long time, at least until Biden.

When in doubt, blame Apple.  Not much help past that.  Interesting that it has happened to someone else though.  That could indicate an issue with the way the DDG browser is communicating with the website or storing cookies/metadata.
