The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you forgot to include the cartoon. We can say the following.

The interpretation of the message of this Thomas Nast political cartoon, which shows Boss Tweed laughing as he is being arrested while the Shadow of Justice looks is the following.

Boss Tweed was the classical representation of corrupt practices of interest groups in United States politics in the Mid 1800s.

Boss Tweed(1823-1878) was a United States politician leader of the political machine of the Democratic Party called "Tammany Hall" in New York City. He was also a businessman with many economic interests and political agendas that bribed legislators to favor his own interests and other businessmen's interests.

So in the cartoon, Thomas Nast depicted the power and influenced Tweed had in New York with the text: "Sheriff Brennan merely nodded to Mr. Tweed, bade him 'Goode-day,' and laying his hand tenderly on his shoulder, said laughing, 'You're my man!' Tweed believed that he could control everybody, including the court system.

The correct answer is "B".

A US saving bond is a debt security in which you are "lending" money to the US government in exchange for an expected return plus interest. It is one of the safest forms of saving, due to the fact the US government has never defaulted on its debt obligations and it also generates more interest than storing your money in a savings account.

which new models did the ottomans adopt during the nineteenth century to adapt themselves to the western challenge?
Likurg_2 [28]

The Ottoman sultans’ fascination with European art, which had so strongly influenced the arts of the eighteenth century, played an equally important role in the nineteenth. Just as they attempted to solve the empire’s problems with the adoption of European systems of law, military, and even dress, so European-style art seemed the most appropriate form of expression for what the country perceived as its own modern and cosmopolitan culture.

For each of the presidential powers below, explain one way that congressional decision making is affected by that power. • veto
marshall27 [118]
The decisions of Congress are heavily influenced by the power of the president. One example would be the power of veto. Even if Congress passes a law in both the House of Representatives and Senate, it does not become a law until the president officially signs it. If the president vetoes (overrules) this law, then Congress must be able to override this veto with a 2/3 vote in both the Senate and House. With this in mind, Congress must ensure before passing the law that if it is vetoed that they would have the power to still make this law possible.

As commander in chief, the president has significant power of the military. Even though Congress needs to approve a declaration of war, they must consider what policies the president will implement once the country is at war.
