I'd like to see all recent (Trump era hires) ICE agents fired and NOT allowed to work for the federal government again, in any capacity. Maybe a bit too harsh, but ....

This get snuck in when there's so much noise on so many fronts. We're in an avalanche of threats.

For me it's "Duh, of course!" that you pay for copyrighted material. I remember Mr. Facebook complaining that it would cost money. Yes, that's the point. They had the inspiration, did the work, and you don't want to reward that? "Of course not - the money I get is meant for ME!"

While it is too bad that the Republicans after the Civil War did not react Andrew Johnson's prolific use of the pardon power for rebels, perhaps the Democrats will push for a constitutional change after Trump's gross misuse of the pardon power.

Here's hoping ...

Billionaires don't need more money but they do crave more power.

The economy is crumbling for the non-rich. The rich are doing extremely well.

I have to assume Rob Schneider was making a joke - there's no chance he grew up when no kid he knew or himself never got sick.

We've seen the pardon power grossly misused by President Andrew Johnson after the Civil War and now Trump. Time to significantly limit the President's pardon power with a constitutional amendment.

Yes, I know we first have to get the government back.

You wish "The I Hate America rallies and theatrics are over" - dream on!

No chance that I'll (we'll) stop!

Of course we know that they are actually "We love America - and want to protect/save/restore it" rallies.

Ah, I was reading (ignoring the number of years) it as the start of the Vietnam War - was really wondering what was considered the start of the war from the American perspective.

The only acceptable bailout is to purchase the harvest for distribution to those who need it in starving parts of the world. Restore USAID.

I hope they DON'T say "let's just move on", talk about forgiveness and good relations. There ought to be a price for violating the laws and the constitution. There ought to be a price for stating that such and such is established law and then turn around and reverse established precedence.

Note that Old Chena Ridge Road kind of goes where the original road went, with exceptions where it starts up the hill and the change from the point it meets the pipeline from the Pump House where it used to go up the spine of the hill. Very steep. 50s saw the 'new' Old road put in place along hill

A note written by the early homesteaders at the top of Chena Ridge asked that Chena Ridge road, really a trail, be upgraded.

Uncertain about road downhill to the end of Chena Pump, though I did read speculation that the Dittmans, homesteading off what is now Rosie Creek, had a logging contract.

It then went up the ridgeline to the top ditch thence around the Chena Ridge knoll to the north and essentially followed the current road. That road used to continue to the top of the ditches on the north. The current road goes uphill and along the top, following what was likely a survey trail.

Chena Ridge Road started from Chena Pump Road a bit to the north of the current intersection with Chena Small Tracts Rd, going west and south along the bottom of the hill then heading uphill in the valley just to the south of where Old Chena Ridge Rd heads uphill, and twisted SW to the end of ditch.

How about Democrats make reinstatement of USAID a condition of providing aid to farmers impacted by Trump's actions on tariffs and international relations?

I was angry when Reagan played games with Iran to win that election. Still pissed.

I would hope that people in the chain of command that killed those people could be held accountable. Not now, of course, but later. And I certainly count Trump as being the ultimate murderer, but others, unfortunately, participated in the killing.
