Caught In The Middle
Let's face it folks - we're caught in a quandary. The same people that are (supposedly) detaining and deporting the illegals are the figurative descendants of those who brought us Ruby Ridge and Waco.
What if all illegals are deported? What happens to all those Federal employees that now work for ICE? Even now with threats to shut down Dept of Ed, is anyone aware of massive firings of Federal employees?
The Supreme Court Will Hear Oral Arguments Tuesday
Headline: "Idaho gov preaches 'common sense' after attorney makes argument in trans athlete SCOTUS case"
"Idaho has always led with common sense -- it’s why we were the first state in the nation to ban men from competing in women’s sports," Little posted to X. "I’m confident that same common sense will prevail as the Supreme Court reviews our law that set the precedent in defending girls and women."
Gov Brad Little
Normally a not-allowed topic but a Supreme Court case is an exception.

Minnesota
Let's give Minnesota what their govt wants - independence from the Feds. After all, the Confederate States had that right - Lincoln over-rode the Constitution by implying the association of States was not voluntary. Let's correct that wrong.
Minnesota residents would no longer need to pay Federal income tax - or any other Federal fees as well. Furthermore, the state no longer needs to submit payments to the Federal government nor does it need to follow Federal law. All kinds of goody things by avoiding the Feds.
Of course, since Minnesota is now an independent sovereign state, all Federal payments to Minnesota stop as do all Federal benefits paid to Minnesota residents. All US passports are now null and void and border crossings are now subject to customs. Probably a bunch of other consequences I'm not thinking of right now.
Goodbye to Lake Wobegon ...

A sample of some obscure - and maybe not obscure - tunes from my strange and off-the-wall collection.
Today's double selection: Klaus Schulze - "Euro Caravan" 2007
Off Klaus Schulze' 36th album, "Kontinuum"
Klaus Schulze (1947 - 2022) was one of the early German electronic music composers, having performed with Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel, and Cosmic Jokers - all of which are among my favorites. He ended up releasing more than 60 LPs, 90 if including compilations. He died of kidney disease just before his final album was released.
Euro Caravan is a 19 minute cut. It begins low and builds. I've often had it playing in the background without realizing it until it reaches my consciousness as it builds. It is not a loud piece but it builds over the entire time. Might be worth turning the volume up; it's quiet at the beginning but will not "roar" at you as it plays.
