Yup. Way to make yourselves look foolish and incompetent to the entire world …. AGAIN. It’s like they were trying to sink those last Republican candidates still standing. You know, the ones still voting for corruption while their galling tv ads tout non-existent accomplishments and “independence.”

The underside of the Cedar Waxwing. #Waxwings #BestOfTheMonth #BirdOfTheDay #nature #wildlife #photography 🪶
A Cedar Waxwing soars above us her wings at full horizontal extension. We see her little feet neatly tucked tightly against her body, her bright yellow tail trim, and can just make out the many little orange-red extensions on the trailing edges of her wings that give her her name.

ICE in the Houston airport Hunter, Daily Kos - Periodically, small packs of ICE agents wander by. Their job is guns. They are there to watch, and to have guns. They do not know the rules about toothpaste, and will not answer your questions... They are just there to watch you, and to have guns.
