They're all criminals. Allegedly, someone is paying them for Hispanic bodies. I'm not sure who that could be.

When your tactics get your foe's government to quit coming to work, replacing it with a meme war, something's working for you.

For #FossilFriday, walking with dinosaurs ~100 million years too late at the Davenport Ranch dinosaur tracksite (1st documented in 1940), near Bandera TX on a @geosociety.bsky.social pre-meeting field trip just 2 weeks ago. Tracks show evidence of herding sauropods & big theropods. 🧪🪨⚒️🦖🦕🐾 #ichnology
