Thank you Meridith, she was a lovely person. My apologies, if I added my response in the wrong place. 🫂🌹

Bags of ice melt are unavailable within 200 miles of us- saw a neighbor up the street holding a bag in his yard. I asked him how much he’d sell it to me for? I know it’s value- He laughed😬
His drive was looking clear and we’re still hiking out from the bottom- it was worth a shot-
I will stock up

My father taught me this, as a young girl. He was a talented musician. Sweet memories❤️

Cato Study: Immigrants Reduced Deficits by $14.5 Trillion Since 1994 The best way to balance the budget is to reduce spending—particularly on wealthy retirees—but rather than hinder our efforts to control deficits, immigrants are helping.

So immigrants aren’t hurting the economy? You don’t say….

You could get measles if you were at Disneyland, these LA areas. When? You'll have to watch for symptoms through February, health officials said. What if you're already been vaccinated?

At Disneyland or LAX recently, check to article for details and determine if you might have been exposed. If you believe you were exposed to measles, please call your doctor.

😂

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

Nice! I hadn’t considered this angle.

Virginia’s New Governor Ends ICE Program. Local Contracts Remain, For Now. - Bolts Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

Elections have consequences: Virginia's new Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger, put an end to the state’s partnerships with this ICE program on Wednesday, fulfilling a campaign promise to roll back collaboration.

Opinion | Let the Arms Race Begin

If Congress doesn’t act, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy, and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read.

Annotating the Judge’s Decision in the Case of Liam Conejo Ramos, a 5-Year-Old Detained by ICE (Gift Article) Our critic annotates the barbed wordplay of a decision challenging the Trump administration’s theory of executive power.

Here’s a useful reminder of what our federal courts SHOULD be doing to uphold our constitutional traditions:

Trump likely to lose latest fight over felony convictions "I think we are beating a dead horse," Judge Hellerstein said.

"Trump likely to lose latest fight over felony convictions"

After roughly three hours of oral arguments, Judge Hellerstein seems no more likely to transfer Trump's criminal case to federal court than he was the last two times he rejected similar efforts.

My recap at All Rise News buff.ly/JpC0Bge

"My troops on the ground?" You say their loyalty is to you, not the Constitution.🤡

Your language trashes the bureau’s core promise and what it stands for, independence, evidence, equal justice, and swaps it with storm troopers.

That’s not America.

A photo of the Newport airport anti-ICE protest in November of ‘25. Several protesters with anti-ICE signs stand in the rain next to a aircraft hangar with “no ice” painted on it. There is a doggerel that goes “Terrified of ICE, friends and neighbors resist! With our lawsuit we persist, Our town shall have no concentration camp we insist!” Photo and poem by Robert Emond.

#Emoetry | #Terrified

A little poem reflecting how I and many of my fellow citizens feel!
