      404 just ask you to sign up to read their articles. I don’t think you need to pay for most of them (I can read this one and haven’t paid).

          I don’t think they mind the use of burner addresses since that’s what I’ve used.

          Then when they inevitably get hacked you’ll get a trillion scammers on you 24/7. Hopefully you used a unique email address you can shut down and they don’t ask for any other information.

        77% of farmer dependent counties voted Trump from the stats I’ve seen in stories. But to be fair you don’t know either.

                  You literally said he was a farmer so that means he voted for this, and then acknowledged that not all farmers voted for this. Do you have insider information into his voting history?
