WASHINGTON (TND) — Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., known for his
casual attire, teased plans to wear a suit on the Senate floor on
social media Wednesday.
”If those jagoffs in the House stop trying to shut our government
down, and fully support Ukraine, then I will save democracy by
wearing a suit on the Senate floor next week,” the lawmaker wrote
on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

An optimistic and upbeat President John F. Kennedy suggested

the Soviets.

Mindful of the limited disposable income of the 1950s teenager,
many record companies started to produce singles, small records
with a popular hit song recorded on one side, the A side, and a
lesser known song by the same artist on the B side.
Most 1950s record stores offered an area with turntables to allow
their customers to listen to a single before they purchased it.
