Cause Of Death: Fox News Toward the end he sat on the back porch, / sweeping his binoculars back and forth / over the dry scrub-brush and arroyos, / certain he saw Mexicans

White House to pause $259M in Minnesota Medicaid dollars in fraud crackdown It’s the latest in a growing list of fraud-focused threats and probes from the Trump administration.

It’s hard to describe what it feels like when your government seems to want nothing more than to make your community suffer in every way possible.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

Oh…interesting. But he’s still going to be partially involved? Lotta good tales from Midway over the years. Baseball camp, a couple Bill Murray encounters…finally planning on reading Slouching Towards Fargo this spring. Not sure how I haven’t!

Yes, but it’s been a couple years. Need to revisit, as it’s pretty cool to have there.

Right on, yeah, there’s a good trail there. Did some good reminiscing at the Joe Mauer night at the Saints last summer. I came up about the same time as him and learned a lot riding the pine all the time!

Legit surprise this morning. I remember a cool Larry Millet-esque one on architecture a year or two back.
