Many of them are using government travel credit cards that will likely max out and go delinquent in less than a month. ICE agents get paid over $50 and that might be too much beacause the can't even catch a guy running with a bike.

America went through it’s longest government shut down in it’s history during Trump’s first term. And I think this shut down will be way longer.
Cheers!

In Christmases of past I have always gotten them toys that windup looking like they were wrapped by a 2-year old monkey. So I think the part about telling them that I know how I am going to wrap it will really get their little sugar plum minds thinking. And I think they will really be surprised when I give them their Christmas presents this year.
It is going to be a stack of money that will be wrapped with a festive hand made money band. Both my Grand kids don’t really need anymore toys or money but sometimes some extra money is nice.
Here is a song that migt help explain it ( the group is from Canada so you know it’s got to be good). Cheers! less

Trump has said tht he is the most transparent president in US history – and I think the release of the Earhart files will prove it. It’s transparently clear that Trump doesn't want the Ebstein files released. Cheers and happy weekend!

He started by saying what a good guy Charlie was – then he talked about how when people disagreed with with Kirk he would invite then onto the stage and let them give their view because he loved them and wished the best for then. Then Trump said – that’s were I disagree with Charlie – I hate my opponents and I don’t wish the best for them. Then the crowd cheered so if Kirk’s messages were about love and tolerance – those messages died that night. Cheers!

Instead, she chose a path of sustained and uncompromising ideological conviction. Her legacy is not merely in her activism but in her very existence as a person who synthesized a unique blend of intellectual, political, and personal choices to form a life of profound authenticity. She was a woman who was a serious intellectual but not an academic, a radical activist but not a simple follower, and a cultivated individual who rejected the commercial trappings of taste. She was an archetype of a particular, and perhaps rare, kind of post-war intellectual: one who lived her philosophy in every choice, from the food she ate to the clothes she wore, leaving behind a testament to a life lived without compromise. less

It was pretty groovy but also a little sad because it was the closing event for the Parksville Beach Festival. I have been having a lot of summertime fun for the past 3 months but now the only thing left to do in Parksville is shop.
I do need new fall and winter out fits plus were getting a new Dollar Rama store in October so I guess its not so bad.
Cheers and happy weekend

He couldn’t even meet the Army’s officer minimum for IQ in 1968. So I think that is why he went with the bone spur instead of the moron story.

The supplies, which included intrauterine devices, implants, and pills, were intended for women in low-income countries became the latest casualties of the dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Why? because the state department deemed them "not life saving".

He's heading away from the East Coast. He looks out the window, his face bruised and exhausted, but a small, defiant smile plays on his lips. He finally understands his chess buddy’s angry plea, and his own: Go fuck yourself. Your going back East. Go eff yourself after long stare.
