I give zero f***s if Alex Pretti kicked a tail light out, or spit on an ICE officer days before they publicly murdered him for trying to protect someone. This administration is only trying to smear him because they know they are responsible, and have no way to justify it.

My cat, Tam-Tam, is a morning cat, and it isn't over breakfast. She just likes all her people in the living room each morning. She gets very excited, and it is very life affirming. She also gets excited about bed time. She is weirdly dog like for a cat. The cat distribution system worked perfectly.

In 1980 when I was on the Iron Curtain I was 20years old. Trump was 34. My First Sargent, who was a Vietnam vet as well as our Battalion Sargent Major who was also a Vietnam vet were both 34 years old. The difference was they were real men, Trump never has been.

I am very angry, and sad ... I am not going to despair though. These a**holes will be held to account. I am cooking comfort, and I may be sampling the cider, and apple brandy, in this recipe (For quality control). F*** ICE!

1. Direct evidence for bread making is surprisingly old. Actual 14,000 year old bread crumbs have been found. They predate agriculture. We were eating grain long before we domesticated it, of course (Put that in your pipe, and smoke it, paleo diet a**holes).

I love this recipe. I always add a tsp, or two of adjika powder or paste, and a tsp dill, and I add Georgian plum sauce to taste instead of the vinegar. All of the ingredients including Khemeli Suneli (I use a store bought blend) can be found online. www.lavenderandmacarons.com/lobio-recipe...

It is cold. So, I made beef stew with onions, garlic, shallots, leeks, turnips, parsnips, carrots, celery root, and potatoes. Normally I'd go with S, P, and thyme for my seasoning, but, after remembering a few other recipes and consulting The Spice Bible, I went with dill, mint, adjika, S, and P.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

When we get a check on this fascist power grab, the people responsible for things like this need to face real consequences. The more senior they are the greater the consequences, but the jack booted thugs need their day of reckoning too. No more forgiveness, and pardons. Examples need to be made.
Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Hmmm…what USAID wasn’t bad for America…what if getting rid of it only hurt us and everyone else?
What if the richest man in the world being responsible for ending aid to the poorest people in the world will go down as one of the most bizarre and disgusting acts of the 21st century?

This was quite good. I made it with cracked potatoes with coriander, fennel, and vermouth, and steamed mixed vegetables. I also made homemade steak sauce.
