Chris Griffith @cbgriffith.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Oklahoma did not start offering Real ID until June of 2020. The state's poor planning & implementation + Covid resulted in too many complications for many Oklahomans who just kinda ignored it. OK still offers the old style license. Many opted for that instead. And could do it online. 010

Chris Griffith @cbgriffith.bsky.social · 03/04/2025RFK Jr wants Americans to stop using seed oils and use olive oil or beef tallow instead. Trump just made olive oil at least 25% more expensive. US demand far outstrips domestic supply. It takes seven years for an olive tree to produce olives for commercial use - if planted and tended properly. 000
Chris Griffith @cbgriffith.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Why? Utah voted for the government they wanted and if they get it good and hard, so what? Democrats have pulled the chestnuts out of the fire for decades and Republicans still hate us. Let them sleep in the bed they made. 000
Chris Griffith @cbgriffith.bsky.social · 23/03/2025I think MAGA believed deep cuts would occur in the "big DC deep state bureaucracy full of faceless slaggards and liberals and drag queens", and DOGE would reward all the good civil servants in Red states. I think they're truly shocked. Same sentiment in Oklahoma. 000
Chris Griffith @cbgriffith.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Jesus Christ himself could come down to Utah to assist, but if He said he was a Democrat, the town would still vote Republican after He fixed things for them. Intractable. Why would Democrats step into that? Futile. 000

Chris Griffith @cbgriffith.bsky.social · 12/03/2025Christians want dominance over all human beings. Christians want the Bible to be THE governing document over all other documents.
