So awesome. This starkly beautiful area of south central Oregon (plus bits of adjoining California & Nevada) continues to be a treasure trove of early American culture and garments.

Not good, but have to admit I haven’t paid much attention to Gallup political polls for a long while. Fortunately there are a number of other high quality polls…though many are affiliated with universities, which this regime extorts on the regular.

It's one thing to get a "no true bill."

It's quite another to get *shut out* in the grand jury.

‘Johnson also attempted to keep one victim quiet by claiming he would receive $10 million from the Trump administration as restitution for former Jan. 6 defendants and would share the money with the victim in his will’
