Fun fact: when we were building WWII Memorial on the Mall it took forever - literally years not months - to get approval: multiple presentations to Comm on Fine Arts (cfa.gov) & Natl Cap Planning Comm (ncpc.gov) for each & every step but worth it #bestjobever www.wwiimemorialfriends.org/design

Bring on 2026! We are so ready for it. Even let Little Man stay up. There are good years and bad years & while 2025 was not a bad year, it was definitely not a good year (except 10 days in SoCal & a few other gems). We hope to have a nice, quiet, uneventful year & that everyone is happy & healthy.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
