Not much to describe. Ancient & Irish, fascinated by the skipfire that is now UK politics. Like music (most kinds) & cooking. Also like a laugh, & try to pleasant when possible - but can get sweary when it's not.

Yikes! This bill is a disaster for Alaska. But most states have similar stories of a bleak future if this passes—especially red states.
It doesn’t have to be this way. Call your Senators and urge them to #VoteNo 👀

What is the worst job to be doing in a heatwave?
Mine are:-
1) Installing insulation in an attic.
2) Using a strimmer in full protective gear in peak midge time.

Enough! This is exactly why ICE should be required to identify themselves.
If ICE looks like criminals and thugs, they should be regarded as such.
