    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      I remember when the Bausch & Lomb plant closed in my home area. Our teacher called for a brief moment of prayer for the families affected. (Public school, by the way, in case you want to start writing stern letters to the school board.)

      West Virginia's always had a rough time of it. Their rivers were never as easily navigable as others on the coast, so they never developed much in the way of urban centers. Plus there's the mountains, which make development, transportation and cell communication very difficult.

      Please love yourself.

        Not the same location but similar, and a good watch.

          Morgantown had the University and semi decent travel to Pittsburgh. Wheeling had a decent manufacturing base and travel as well. Otherwise? Forests, mountains, and great rafting/kayaking waterways but not so good for barges…

            Maybe they need a $50 minimum wage.

              I've been through a lot of that country as recently as 2015. It's rough as a cob. All the industry is gone or going. There's no reason for any kids to stay there.

              The 1question is not whether DC cares or not, but what can they do?
