I live abt 60 miles north of that Nogales AZ/Nogales, Sonora border where the ICE agents are preventing people from leaving the US. I carry both my US & Cdn passports. I don't think it will matter.

Unfortunately, both these people were British, not Cdn.There are now reports of ICE agents posted on the US side of the Nogales AZ/MX border crossing. These agents are demanding ID from people LEAVING the US & if it's unsatisfactory to them, are making arrests. The Mexican migra are not involved.

This poor lady & husband were trying to leave the US thru Coutts AB/Sweetgrass MT & were turned back when they learnt their rental car couldn't go into Canada. They were arrested at Sweetgrass. Coutts entry is what u use to go frm AZ to Alta. It's shocking as hell for Sweetgrass to be militarised.

To turn a flour tortilla into a bowl, you take a suitably sized baking dish & put the tortilla into that bowl, & bake it for abt 10 minutes. It stiffens into a 'bowl'. Tortillas are really thin, so when baked they're crispy. Gotta believe much the same would happen to naan, but doubt it'd be crisp.

Arizona AG files appeal in challenge to Tucson Electric Power, Project Blue deal Attorney General Kris Mayes is challenging a deal between TEP and a massive data center project, arguing that "sweetheart rates" for big tech shouldn't be set behind closed doors.

One of the best elements of AZ is the State Corporation Commission, which has all the power to regulate to the benefits of residents. It has abdicated that power. "Arizona AG files appeal in challenge to Tucson Electric Power, Project Blue deal" tucson.com/news/local/g...

A farm worker harvesting strawberries

"Mario" shares, "I'm a strawberry picker. I wake up at 4:30 in the morning to work for 4 to 5 hours in this cold damp weather. I end up earning $60 to $80. I do it with great pride. Farm workers are essential. We put food on America's tables." #WeFeedYou

Is ICE still 'detaining' those three Oglala Sioux in Minneapolis?

Not quite. I mean, good try and everything, but it was about as simple as detaching from one of the DCCC's mailers.

Here's my dilemma. Either I now prepare a nutritious dinner. Or I air fry some onion rings. Both are possible. Neither will have much of an impact on my blood sugar or blood pressure, because neither actually will. One will not be et. There is about an hour & half to decide.
