  14. I still want to know why Portland, OR has NETs instead of CERTs. I know it's because the Portland Police have a SERT (Special Emergency Response Team) instead of a SWAT, but why is that? Was there some scandal that caused the SWAT to be renamed? Or is Urban Dictionary's story correct?

  31. "The largest illegal campaign contribution from a federal contractor to date appears to have been $1 million in 2022, contributed by the #MarathonPetroleum Company to the respective super PACs for both House and Senate Republicans.
