    “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 noticed it. I was helping a friend shop for a bike for her daughter, who's the same age as mu son. Everything was sold out everywhere.

        My son put his old bike up for sale on the local FB parents group.

        We got four immediate offers, and others straggled in over the next day or two. But for the fact these are neighbors we could have started a bidding war.

        You were warned.

          I bought my son a bike using curbside pickup at Dick's Sporting Goods right after quarantine started. Even then there was only one boys model 24" bike left .

          You were warned.

            We remember the stories of bikes being destroyed in the not too distant past, I’m sure.

            Even very recently though...
