Had To Be Trump Or Climate Change
"Sick Leftists Blame Trump For Plane/Chopper Collision"
"They’re claiming that because Trump fired some DEI TSA people a few days ago, this has somehow caused a helicopter to crash into a plane."
I try so hard to keep the hatred out of my heart ... but it keeps leaking there from my brain.

Part 5 - Julesburg to Junction Station is now live.
After the layover in Julesburg, actual travel begins.
This segment of the route was the most profitable, the most heavily travelled, and certainly not the least dangerous.
"Junction Station" was actually the name given to several stations - each being a junction between the trail to the west and multiple cut-offs to the mining regions west of Denver. This Junction Station became Ft Morgan; a handy stopping point for this series before continuing west in later chapters.

Oops!
Apparently I'm still in the need to tweak stage. I just became aware of a bundle of comments that ended up in the spam basket - a few from people I thought were white-listed. I've removed them from the bit bucket and approved those comments - none were spam as I define it - so if you noticed one of your comments not being posted, it should be by now.
I thought I get notified for spam entries but it appears ... I wuz rong.

I suppose I could expend some effort to mention current events - seems that's what all the kool kids are doing. Trump seems to be keeping most of his election promises, so do the lefties.
We're still in the honeymoon phase though. It's not yet been two weeks and being the cynic that I am, I'm still waiting for the "forces of Democracy" to make their play. I think they truly believed that whore would win and haven't yet properly prepared for the mayhem they so desperately desire.
So, while I think Trump's doing what he was voted into office to do, and he's getting down to consolidating his power which he neglected to do the first time 'round, I do believe the fireworks show hasn't really gotten underway ... yet. Those people are not just going to roll over and let be. And the more successful Trump is in the beginning, the deeper the pushback will be when it comes.
The economy's in the toilet but everyone sees the market going up and up and up ... and figures the world is good. But it's someone putting latex paint on the old oil-based paint; looks pretty at first but it's going to peel off and make a bigger mess than it needed to be.
There are a lot of Obama-ites crawling around the edges that are out of Trump's ability to deal with - such as Lindsay Graham being up to his usual stab in the back activities; this summer could prove to be yet another reminder that Ol' Remus' advice was good: "Don't be there"
But so far - such a breath of fresh air.
Nice to see Milley may get his comeuppance. May his name become synonymous with Benedict Arnold. May his fate be that of Mussolini. May Fauci join him.
Hope for the best - just keep your powder dry in the meantime ...

Overland Stage – Part 4 South Platte/Julesburg/Ft Sedgwick
Part 4 - South Platte/Julesburg/Fort Sedgwick is now live.
Beginning with this article, each of the stations are discussed east to west - at least as far as what information is available.
Starting at South Platte Station - at the present junction of I-76 and I-80 in western Nebraska, this page stops at Julesburg to ramble on about all four versions of Julesburg, Ft Sedgwick - the inspiration for the fort in Dances With Wolves, and the notorious Jack Slade, who gets a side page to himself and his legend.
