Imagine if @governor.ca.gov announced a plan to explore government paid healthcare for children under five. Bounded; just a plan; revolutionary.

I did see the Admiral's statement before the press secretary's statement.
Think it through.
There is a quick public backing of a police officer dying in the line of duty, in performance of duties.
There will be a slower and more careful examination and policy changes quietly executed.
Confused.
TL;DR: Washington Post publishes one paragraph saying new Coast Guard policy coming. Coast Guard replies: "Da Fuq?"

Missed a videocall today because time changed in California but not in the other country.
Does *anyone* like Daylight Savings Time? Is there any possible way to kill it? In California, we passed propositions, extracted promises, and more. Yet that zombie lives on.
So the new awards have red stars on them for 'reasons'?

Troops wait for real orders for ceasefire. Order comes from government. Issue is that troops not watching news for orders?
Military takes orders from government is kind of the definition of rule of law.
Unfortunately, the TL;DR: Burbank transfers its air control radio to the main trunk, which they usually only do a bit later in the day.
