(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

The National Park budget is $3.6 billion but it creates
$55 billion in economic output

After a cut in March of 2024, the budget is more like $3.3 billion. This works out to a cost of about $10 per visitor. Not much compared to private parks. It's called investing in America, folks.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Knit round coasters (no longer on Purl Soho or Ravelry) are only available on The Wayback Machine here: www.purlbee.com/calla-coaste...
These circles would also be great as bases for knit baskets. 🧶
