Feds are still stuck in the Republican Shutdown.
Here in Gainesville we’re too busy delivering value to you and representing your values to get caught up in that foolishness.

Re the president’s remarks from the “bipartisan” event in Iowa, as FDR said, “I welcome their hatred.”
I do not return it, because that isn’t good for me. But if that’s the way anyone needs to feel, I guess they need to work through their own stuff.

At his inauguration, Trump took a solemn oath to "preserve, protect, and defend" the Constitution AS IS.
Now, he says he "doesn't know" if he has to follow Constitutional requirements.
Well, America knows.
He does.
Now, let's see who will make him do it.

“Martial,” as in law or arts, is a modifier denoting a military or combat connection. “Marshall” is a title or an office.
