thx in advance
thx in advance
Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Sourdough bread I baked last night. I just wanted to add something positive on here because 99% of posts are horrifying and depressing.

It's not just the money, either.
A venue manager told me that when they're setting up her show, she went out and introduced herself to the locals doing the work to thank them. He said that's the only act he's ever seen do that. You don't have to be a fan of her music to be a fan of Taylor Swift.

This is the point I keep coming back to- if the head of state has no regard for the Constitution or the rule of law, what responsibility do states/citizens have to obey the directives of the federal government?

One day you're passing 2 tractor trailers at a time on a backwoods highway to make it home in time for curfew and the next day you're scared to drive at night.

Central Valley farm owners didn’t want undocumented workers deported; what they want is to keep workers in fear of being deported so they can abuse them.

The impact of Trump's promise of mass deportations is already starting to show. The California Farm Bureau says fears in the Central Valley have led to migrant farmworkers not showing up for work, which has virtually halted the area's citrus harvest. 🍊 🍋

As someone that’s worked with the OIG, they’ve fucked with the wrong ones. 😂
The Inspectors General refuse to leave until the action is taken legally, which they do not believe it was, and neither do senators like Chuck Grassley. This is what not backing down looks like.

Imagine your car is stolen with your cancer meds in it & the insurance company tells you that they won't cover replacement meds w/o proof that the meds were in the car at the time it was stolen.
