Mud season 2026

 Mud season 2026

Warm temps Monday and overnight melted a bunch of the snow here finally, Tuesday March 17th we had some good wind gusts, clearing a lot of snow from the fields, I expect the winds to dry up some of the mud now.

Spring is coming, I saw a pair of Mallards flying this week, and 1000 or so crows in a field on the way to work. 

The deer have been sparring out in the yard.

Tuesday night a Raccoon came onto the deer-yard eating along side of two deer that came into the yard. They weren't quite sure what to make of the newcomer.

Pussy Willows are starting to open. There were Robins patrolling the field too.

It's the 1st day of spring today Friday March 20th!

Sunday trip over to Mom & Dads, I checked the dryer vent, other than the bird guard had fallen off, it looked good.  Replaced the hinge on one of their kitchen cabinets, realigned the door on another and tightened several others. I oiled up their front door latch that was sticking.

We picked up 8 bags of pellets at Tractor Supply

Spring is here. That means my fishing season is going to start opening up. 

We saw several pairs of Canadian Geese on the ground this weekend. 

Rose saw some Red Winged Blackbirds on Monday, it seems the sparrows are already nesting in the Martin houses.

The deer have been coming in around 7PM before dark lately.

Crocuses and Daffodils are up out of the ground

It seems funny, the ground is still quite frozen here and stores Tractor supply, and supermarkets have all their spring plants shrubs, trees, bulbs, and bushes out for sale.

We're hoping for more normal weather this year, last year we had 11+ weekends of rain right through June then drought right up until winter hit.

A fox came through the deer yard Wednesday night, we'd put a deer block out.

Thursday we pulled the feed barrels into the shed, just in case the bears are out of their dens.

Friday I got the sand barrels down to the barn for the winter.  It was a big day Friday, the lawn tractor is officially out of the barn!  I took the first trip around the farm to see what'll need fixing, cutting, trimming, all the 'ings.  We have a few hanging branches that have broken off and are hung up waiting to fall on someone.

I'm charging batteries for the back porch LED light, 10,000 mAh batteries will take a while to charge up, but it's cheaper than disposables. 

Sparrows have been nesting in several houses for a couple weeks now, we have a couple pairs of Bluebirds in houses too. Still waiting for the swallows to arrive.

Experts at AccuWeather have predicted that between 11 and 16 storms will form, with as many as five making direct landfall on the U.S. East Coast or Gulf states. This unsettling forecast serves as a critical reminder that a below-average season in numbers does not equate to a low-risk season for devastation.  

One of my favorite sayings, "Things happen for a reason" 

Despite the fact that they will soon rise up and kill us all, this robot is pretty darned neat. It has only two legs, but it moves amazingly well, just like a certain roadrunner cartoon character we are all familiar with. Roadrunner uses its powered wheels to move in dual mode, inline mode, and even balances on one wheel. It never needs to turn around, because forward, backward, and sideways are human constructs. Then it can lock its wheels and just walk like a human, which includes navigating stairs and ramps. Can Roadrunner dance? Of course! It wouldn't be a robot demonstration without a little dancing.  

Saw a cottontail rabbit on the camera Friday night, so there's still at least one here. 

Lots to do on Saturday, we got a lot done. We've got failed batteries in a couple LED Lights, need to clean the corrosion out of the battery area and replace the batteries, and we're charged the rechargeable batteries in another.  We've changed almost everything now to solar powered LED lights, and are using rechargeable batteries everywhere we can.

Greased the bearings on Rose's windmill 

Air purifier filter was changed, and with the tractor running again I moved all the cinder blocks out to the field storage area.

I need to re-bait the mousetraps, cellar, trailer and attic, the attic ladder is made using rough cut oak, probably 80+ pounds getting it down isn't that hard getting it back up is another story.

I got TurboTax installed and do my TAXES

Saturday night Rose called me out to the dining room there were 10 deer out in the deer yard.

Fox came through around 10pm

Jarrod got Rose a unique birdhouse for Christmas, I'll put it together today so that its post is ready to go in the ground as soon as the ground is thawed out.

The tulips, crocus and daffodils are up out of the ground now, the daffs in the front yard are up 6+" now.  Soon.

The deer were out playing in the field

Deer are a bit leery of the raccoon

We have a fox coming through every couple of days now.

Several local forum neighbors have had TICKS on them or their dogs already, we've got the tick stuff to put down.

We sprayed grass killer around all the birdhouse posts making it easier to mow out back. 

It's supposed to rain this week, we put down a piece of outdoor carpet over the bare ground (Soon to be mud) to help with the dogs tracking in so much dirt.

BEARS, Monday night just about 8:45 pm a large bear showed up in the main field cam VIDEO.

Then at 8:55 pm a smaller scraggly bear ran across the back towards the cove. Glad we pulled the feed barrels in.

Rose noticed all the suet feeders were empty or missing, and one of the big bird feeders was on the ground, Rose got them all put away.

So the bears are back, deer never left, foxes, raccoons, skunks, cotton tail rabbits, we haven't seen or heard the coyotes, perhaps they moved on.

Putting out the trash Wednesday morning the last vestiges of snow are retreating, we're supposed to get rain the next 4 days so by Sunday all of the snow should be gone.

It's APRIL 1st,   APRIL FOOLS DAY!

 

It's Spring for sure our Tree Swallows arrived on April 1st!  A week early! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trump Tariffs Prove Effective: Study Shows $85 Billion Revenue Boost, Reduced China Dependence, with Minimal GDP Impact 

While 80 percent of Americans disapprove of Congress, 80 percent of voters approve of voter verification. So Congress goes on spring break.

• The American people don’t think very highly of their federal legislature. These days it seems Congress is slightly more popular than syphilis, and less so than measles. Let’s face it, Congress’ action — and inaction — has proven more dangerous than both.
• Put the latest polling in perspective. More people trust mass media (28%) — speaking of communicable diseases — than approve of Congress (16%), according to the latest Gallup polls. That’s an 80 percent disapproval rating, with the remaining 4 percent apparently in the “if you don’t have anything nice to say …” camp. Congress’ approval rating is just 3 percentage points above its all-time low. 
• It’s pretty ugly. 
• You know what’s really popular? Voter ID.  

ANALYSIS: The Reason the Democrats – and Only the Democrats – Side with Iran

Leftists turned out in force for Saturday’s “No Kings” protests, which were predictably chock full of freaks and senior citizens and were once again noticeably lacking the diversity that Democrats love to crow about.

• “Trump Derangement therapy sessions,” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson branded the third edition of the astroturf uprising against President Donald J. Trump, basically an extended temper tantrum about an election that didn’t go the way that Democrat misfits and spiteful mutants wanted.
• The White House spokesperson also suggested that the only people who care about the protests are in the media, and the presstitutes spent the weekend hyperventilating about the turnout while normal people couldn’t care less. 

“I think that the economy, and the political system, has literally become such a disaster I don’t know if it’s possible to save it.” – James Woods 

The U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation Wednesday to crack down on illegal immigrants participating in welfare fraud despite fierce objections from most Democrats.

• Lawmakers voted 231-186 to approve the Deporting Fraudsters Act, with 186 Democrats opposing the measure. 

“Between income taxes and employment taxes, capital gains taxes, estate taxes, corporate taxes, property taxes, Social Security taxes, we’re being taxed to death.” – The Late Chuck Norris

 

Mid March updates

Mid March Updates!

Sunday it's March 1st, I picked up a heat n Eat corned beef and cabbage for dinner at MB. I love corned beef and cabbage!  A few years back we picked up several packages of corned beef at Market Basket for less than $3 each, I'm scared with St. Patrick's day coming up, the last year or so corned beef has been $11-14 each!  I didn't manage to see if they had any yesterday, fingers crossed.

Monday, we moved the side table back into the kitchen off the island, Rose has been busy getting the kitchen back to normal, then we worked on putting the ceiling lights back up. I struggled mightily getting one fixture put back onto the screws that hold them to the ceiling power box.  The last two lights went up easier.  I screwed the bulbs back into the fixture, one had a bad bulb, looking at the other lights I noticed another dim bulb, we ended up replacing 3 bulbs.  Rose found some more 15 watt LED 1600 lumen bulbs designed for enclosed fixtures boy were they bright, with the newly painted white ceiling the kitchen looked brand new.

Full moon last night, known as the Worm Moon, coinciding with a total lunar eclipse, creating a blood moon. 

We're always looking to solve small problems before they grow teeth and bite us, such as it is on this old homestead.  This world may change around him, but he just can’t change no more. It pretty well sums up my feelings on the way things are today.  But if God says slow down, I will respond "Not Yet."

The solar power bug has claimed another victim!  There's no cure and the symptoms can only be relieved by buying more panels, batteries or inverters!

We move our clocks ahead one hour next Sunday, March 8, 2026, at 2:00 AM local standard time and the sun won't set until 7:30 pm EDT! Personally...I CAN'T WAIT!

Tuesday 3/3 - Gas prices went from $2.87 Monday to $2.90 Tuesday morning, by Tuesday afternoon it was $3.00 a gallon. Wednesday morning $3.10 a gallon.

We got 4-5 inches of snow overnight and a thin crust on top of that.

Thursday James came over for dinner, twas good to see him and catch up!

March 7th Saturday morning started with a bang, at 1AM Manchester production line went down due to a network issue, then at 4AM my Kenosha site went down due to a local power outage, getting all server systems and network back up has been real slow, 11AM and we're still at it. Gas was up to $3.50 in town, they're saying $4.00 soon!  

We went over to Mom & Dads to drop off some lunches and dinners, Nance had been there and Sheila arrived as we did. Dad and I went over his paperwork and answers a lot of questions, we'll stop over again next week as I left him some homework. Saturday I've got a couple of things to fix over at Mom & Dads, kitchen cabinet door is broke I'm looking up the part on Sunday. I'll put batteries in Moms stair lift this week if I can get over there.  Rose mentioned that the dryer was drying real slow, I'll check their dryer lint trap outside again that was the problem last year.

It's supposed to be 71 Degrees on Tuesday! 

Evening In A Sugar Orchard
by Robert Frost
From where I lingered in a lull in march
outside the sugar-house one night for choice,
I called the fireman with a careful voice
And bade him leave the pan and stoke the arch:
'O fireman, give the fire another stoke,
And send more sparks up chimney with the smoke.'
I thought a few might tangle, as they did,
Among bare maple boughs, and in the rare
Hill atmosphere not cease to glow,
And so be added to the moon up there.
The moon, though slight, was moon enough to show
On every tree a bucket with a lid,
And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow.
The sparks made no attempt to be the moon.
They were content to figure in the trees
As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
And that was what the boughs were full of soon. 

Sunday 3/8 was a fill up the grain barrels day, we went for a drive, and put out a new deer block.  Rose emptied the freezer and reorganized the contents.

As we drove by the pond I noticed that the water level had come up quite a bit. 

Monday Rose made up cheese stuffed burgers, peanut butter cookies and some brownies.

The birds are already fighting over the birdhouses, there were 3 sparrows camped out at the martin house all day today.  The Bluebirds are checking out houses as well. 

Tuesday it's supposed to get up to 71 degrees today. I'm taking the day off, going to get a haircut too.  It got up to 74 degrees, it was nice. We cooked up a couple of steaks with peppers and onions on the grill that Jarrod gave us, they were great!  We have the house doors and windows open!

We looked for Crocuses popping up around the house foundation, but alas there's still too much ice and snow to melt yet. 

Wednesday 3/10. With spring almost here it's a time for firsts, the first birds nesting or at least scouting houses, the bluebirds are looking at new homes too. We'll be hearing Peepers soon enough once the ice is out, the first reeep' from the woodcocks, maybe even some bare earth out in the fields.   Hah, I came home from work Rose said come see...  Yup both the Crocuses and the Daffodils had poked up an inch or so.  For now we're still knee deep in mud season and it'll get worse before it gets better. 

Rose baked up a bunch of cookies on Wednesday!

Sunrise Saturday morning

Saturday evening 3/14, we headed over to the KofC Irish dinner in Merrimack,  Sheila & Rick, Joe and Amy, Rose and I and Jarrod & Crystal, we had a great time it was great to see everyone and catch up!

The 1-2" of snow we got Friday evening had all melted by Saturday night, the dogs were very restless.  I walked around the house to see if I could see what was lurking about, I saw nothing but the dogs knew better, Winston came back in with the hair on his back standing up on his spine.  Coyotes maybe?

A Beautiful fiery sunrise on Sunday morning!   Moments later, It was gone the sky turning gray.

Sunday Rose and I went out and put some more LED lights on the other big blueberry bush in the field out back. 

Almost Skunked Again Monday morning!  I heard Winston whining at the back door, I went downstairs and without thinking opened the door, both the dogs went tearing out the door, then I smelled skunk, crap, I grabbed the remote for Winston's training collar and beeped him thankfully he and Zebulon came running back right away, I didn't smell skunk on the dogs so all's good, we've been through this before, I don't want to go through that again!

Monday into Tuesday we've got a bunch of rain coming through and some high winds are expected. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This week’s faux outrage promised to be tasty. Lobster! Rib eye! King crab! Millions spent lavishing such delicacies on the troops when all that money might have been spent on poor working stiffs like members of Congress. Outrageous! 

Iran says it's ready for a long war that would 'destroy' global economy

Democrats are desperate for something that will destroy Trump. They have no accomplishments, no new ideas, no policies or any personalities that can compete with him. All they have are lies. They can’t even criticize the actions against Iran without being anti-American. Trump is accomplishing so much good for the nation that any criticism of him is anti-American. 

The poll indicates that voters trust Republicans over Democrats to handle nearly every key issue, including inflation, tariffs, foreign policy, and most significantly immigration, where Republicans hold a staggering 24-point advantage. 

Trump is rewriting the rules of politics, economics, and culture—and no one, not even the experts, knows what happens when the old orthodoxy finally breaks. 

Cleanup on the Propaganda Aisle
“A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting. It has therefore been deleted.” —CNN 

“It’s just crazy how difficult it has been to get Congress to care about secure, legitimate elections in the United States. For the record, elections in America are conducive to mass fraud. Although Democrats and Establishment Republicans say stupid and fundamentally dishonest things, such as “America’s elections have never been more secure,” American citizens know they are lying.”  Twelve states (California, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, and Vermont) plus Washington, D.C., essentially allow people to vote at the polls without documentation.

If anyone doubted that the traditional Democratic Party is a dead empty carcass that has been filled by the America hating, antisemitic, Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), look no further than the response of Democratic elected officials to the joint American Israeli attack on Iran.

• Rather than celebrating the defanging of a regime that has been at war with the United States since 1979 and is responsible for the deaths and maiming of 1000s of American service members, Democrats (other than Senator John Fetterman, a true profile in courage) are blaming Donald Trump for “starting a war of choice.”
• Rather than rallying behind our troops, praying for their safety, and promising to give them everything they need to ensure an American victory, Democrats are telling our troops they will “fail” and that their cause is “unjust.” 

“If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support,” he said. “The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”
Republicans stood and applauded. Democrats didn’t budge from their seats. It was a striking contrast. “You should be ashamed of yourself, not standing up,” he told Democrats.  

• That’s not just a rhetorical question. Democrats have moved so far to the left that many voters simply don’t believe Democrats could hold the positions they do. In October 2024, Tablet magazine had an article on this phenomenon entitled “The Democrats’ Insanity Defense.”
• A GOP staffer said, “that one problem his campaign regularly faces is that aspects of Democratic governance are simply too insane for voters to find credible, even when they are documented as official U.S. government policy,” the article stated.

The daily news cycle around President Trump moves at a pace that buries accomplishments most presidents would tout for weeks. Several developments in late February fit that pattern. The headlines fixated on Iran, but other wins piled up in the background.

• On February 22, CNBC reported that the average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage fell to 5.99%, its lowest level since 2022. A year earlier, the rate sat at 6.89%. That drop matters because mortgage rates drive affordability. When rates fall, more families can buy a home, refinance, or move without swallowing a punishing monthly payment. Home ownership still anchors the American dream for millions of households, and lower rates expand access.
• In Trump Time, one week can carry the weight of a season.
• The news barely lingered there. 

A paid representative for the designated terror organization and Islam-pushing Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has called for Texas, in its state education system, to teach that one-third of all slaves in America were Muslim, enslaved, and killed for their Muslim faith, erase the Mayflower Compact, eliminate Columbus Day, teach that the Alamo was influenced by Islam and honors Islamic architecture and more.

• Not happening, at least according to two members of the state Board of Education who challenged the accuracy of the claims, openly opposed a “jihadist agenda being forced on our children,” and were skeptical about the benefits of teaching children about Muhammad’s decision to marry a six-year-old and consummate the marriage when the little girl was just nine. Pickren’s conclusion: “We’re going to teach Christopher Columbus. We’re going to teach the 10 Commandments. We’re going to teach Thanksgiving. We’re going to teach George Washington’s Thanksgiving prayer. And we are certainly NOT going to teach that the Alamo was designed and built to honor Islam! 

The problem is not that weather varies. It always has. The problem is that whatever happens is now cited as evidence of climate catastrophe.

• If it snows less than average — climate change.
• If it snows more than average — climate change.
• If temperatures rise — climate change.
• If temperatures plunge — climate change.
• If drought hits — climate change.
• If floods come — climate change.

At this point, climate change has become less a scientific hypothesis and more a theological doctrine: omnipresent, unfalsifiable, and invoked to explain all things. 

THREE major pharmacies are set to close hundreds of locations, suffering from industry problems and economic pressures.  CVS Health, Rite Aid and Walgreens have announced plans to close pharmacy locations across the country.

Rep. Mark Harris sounds off on Senate inaction over DHS funding and election integrity legislation. He criticizes Senate leadership, including Chuck Schumer, while also urging Republicans to push harder for a talking filibuster to advance the SAVE America Act. Backed by Donald Trump, Harris argues voter ID and proof of citizenship requirements have broad public support and should be a top priority for the 119th Congress.

 

And it's March 1st

Quick get to the store for Bread and Milk, save yourselves. There's a Blizzard coming in on Monday expecting 10-15" of snow here.  Predicting 25+ MPH winds, white out conditions!  Yet another snowpocalypse!

Work was cancelled last Monday! 

Woke up Monday morning to 3-4" on the ground, winds picking up. Jarrod called around 6AM to see if we thought we'd need plowing at some point Monday, he's off work today too.

Yesterday marked one of the most significant Olympic victories for the United States: Team USA defeated Canada to win the gold medal in hockey. 

By noontime the winds were blowing pretty good, we ended up with a good 8-9" of snow.  Rose and I snowblowed the deeryard, the front yard and driveway.

Boston Globe postpones printing of paper for first time in 153 years, due to blizzard 

Six planets in the solar system are going to align in the western sky just after sunset. Those planets will include Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

• The latter two planets, Uranus and Neptune, will need binoculars or a telescope to be seen. The others will all be visible with the naked eye.
• This alignment of six planets is already moving close to its position. The best alignment date will be Saturday, February 28. From Earth’s perspective, the six planets will not be in a perfect straight line, yet will appear close together. 

Loyalty doesn't always shout.

Sometimes, it remains still… even if staying might cost it its life.

Because true love isn't an emotion.

It's a decision.

More snow and rain in the forecast Wednesday it started about 6AM.  Not much about an inch.

Thursday evening; "did you see that" Rose said staring out the dining room windows into the darkness, I stared out, the moonlight reflecting off the snow, shadows and light, something moved fast across my view, was that it? "There Rose said, see 'em?" I saw something, the warped window glass distorts your vision, playing tricks, then there were two shapes not moving, just standing there.  I stared for a while and slowly into the twilight the shapes morphed and appeared to move, barely but I saw it this time.  The glass messes with your eyes making you doubt what you see when you look. There were definitely two figures in the darkness swaying slowly, I could use more moonlight, it was deer, not the cryptids my mind had imagined.  Maybe I've been reading too much horror lately?

 

                                                     For Rose!

Friday evening before it got dark I went out to the edge of the deer yard with a shovel and started clearing the snow off the solar panels, there was two feet of snow piled up at the base of the panels, with several inches covering the panels. I went back into the house, pulled up my solar monitor and the panels were once again producing power. 

It's Saturday morning 2/28, two deer came in to the deer yard for a snack before bedding down for the day.  Rose happened to see them marching through the 18+ inches of snow out in the field.  Normally I receive alerts on my phone that a deer is out there, but I need to replace the Lithium batteries in the two camera's in the yard today both cams are dead until I do.

Rose has plastic up, she finished cutting in around the edges with primer on Friday, priming the kitchen ceiling for paint.

Saturday it's supposed to be 51 degrees today. Rose primed the 2nd half of the kitchen.

I changed the batteries in the two deer yards.  Snow was deep!

 A bunch of deer came in Saturday evening!

Sunday it's Pellet stove cleaning day today too.  And it's snowing!

 

 

 

WAR with IRAN has started! Iran has launched retaliatory missile strikes against Israel hours after coordinated attacks by the United States and Israel on key strategic targets inside the Islamic Republic.

On Saturday, Israel confirmed it had launched a pre-emptive strike on Iranian territory, joined by a broader U.S. military offensive targeting military and nuclear sites across Tehran and other major cities, including areas near the office of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

While President Donald Trump was on Capitol Hill on Tuesday night delivering a powerful, commanding State of the Union address that laid out a vision for a prosperous and secure America, the radical Left was busy hosting what can only be described as a fever-dream circus at the National Press Club.

• While the adults were discussing policy, the “State of the Swamp” counter-event, hosted by the anti-Trump group Defiance.org, descended into a literal “Animal House” scenario.
• The optics weren’t just bad; they were humiliating.
• The event, hosted by the anti-Trump group Defiance.org, featured a “who’s who” of people the American electorate rejected or tuned out years ago.
•     Robert De Niro: The actor, who seems unable to speak without veering into a scripted rage, called the President a “lunatic” and claimed the country is “imploding.”
•     The Media Gaslighters: Jim Acosta, Don Lemon, and Mehdi Hasan were all in attendance, presumably to console each other over their plummeting relevance.
•     The ‘Lawfare’ Brigade: George Conway and Glenn Kirschner showed up to continue their endless, failed predictions of the President’s “imminent” demise.
• 
  

Susan Rice’s stark warning to the other half of the country that is not crazy. Her message to Trump supporters: We’re coming after you when we’re back in power. “Revenge is a dish best served cold.”  It telegraphed the fear running through the Lefty-left that their crimes against the country are being tallied, carefully catalogued, and presented to a grand jury in Florida. The crimes are bundled as a multifaceted conspiracy to overthrow the US government. Pretty serious. Sedition and Treason. Susan Rice knows what she (and others) did.

Seriously, both my wife and I were joking about this the other day. Liberals will go on and on about women's rights, and then insist that men be allowed in women's sports, locker rooms, and prisons. They will scream about terrorism just before they call people Nazis, mime shooting people in the neck, and cheer on assassinations. 

The latest absurdity is the claim that voter ID is Jim Crow 2.0 and the claim that women are incapable of getting IDs. 

This, in a world where, by laws that Democrats have passed, it's impossible to do just about anything else aside from voting without an ID. No bank accounts, housing, jobs, travel (you need a DL to drive and a RealID to fly), leave the country when you decamp to Canada or Ireland, buy alcohol, or God knows what. 

Democrats also hand out IDs to illegals like they are Obamaphones, allowing them to kill people on the roads in massive trucks, totally untrained. 

Apparently, in New York City, you cannot shovel snow with several forms of ID, passport photos, and a Social Security card. No doubt this is a union rule or something, even if you are doing it for free, since you are impinging on their overtime.  

The LARGEST vaccine–dementia study ever conducted (n=13.3 million) found common vaccines dose-dependently increase risk of dementia/Alzheimer’s for a DECADE. A MAJOR Cleveland Clinic study (n=53,402) found −27% flu shot effectiveness during 2024–25 flu season.

• Unvaccinated Are the Healthiest People According to Cohort Study Looking at “Unvaccinated” Americans “There are approx 100,000 adults in America who’ve never received a vaccine in their life…the data is clear, showing the unvaccinated are the healthiest people 

Thanks to a lawsuit against TSA, disturbing new details are emerging about how illegals without traditional ID were allowed to board commercial flights during the Biden era. And buried inside the paperwork is the detail that has many Americans downright furious.

• According to the lawsuit and supporting documents, illegals who were flagged as sex offenders were able to travel by presenting official paperwork related to their sex offender status.
• Yep. Let that sink in for a moment. The Biden regime welcomed in and carted around illegals who were known sex offenders.
• At a time when Americans are routinely told air travel security is tighter than ever, the idea that illegal sex offenders could waltz onto commercial flights using administrative documents is raising even more serious concerns about basic public safety and the rights of American citizens.
• Why would any sane government do this to its people? The only rational explanation is what many Americans have suspected all along: this was about creating a new voting bloc, no matter the cost.
• Experts across cable news and immigration policy circles have argued that the Biden regime’s approach was driven by the belief that mass migration could reshape the electorate. Of course, the regime has strongly denied that, but the perception has taken hold, and for many Americans, not without reason.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz wants you to know he is furious about the massive fraud scandal plaguing his state. He also wants you to know that the federal government’s efforts to do something about it amount to political punishment. He delivered both messages at the same press conference on Thursday, apparently without noticing the contradiction.
