WORTH REPEATING:
Texas has 2.1M undocumented immigrants and Florida has 1.2M.
Minnesota has 130,000.
Don't let anyone tell you this is about immigration.
It never was.
Trump lost MN three times. That is what THIS is about, and itโs impeachable.
"The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. The other agencies within it should be redistributed across other departments. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries."
@itvcycling Watching Gary tear up AGAIN made me cry. I'm grateful for the years I got to watch the TdF on ITV (am now in the US so have to pay for decent coverage!).
@nedboulting Would love to read this but sadly can't afford any subscriptions... still, the 10 years I spent in the UK I always enjoyed you on ITV and also your in person one man show. ๐
@GeraintThomas86@LeTour Somehow didn't realize that 2007 was your first! I as marshalling in Kent later. Thanks for sharing your talents and humor with the cycling world ๐
@antmccrossan@nicholasroche Wondering all day: why did the stage for jersey presentations say "Puy de Dรดme" on one side, and in the middle? Obviously the finish was Puy de Saucy. ๐ค
@antmccrossan@nicholasroche I cannot believe neither of you like escargots! I love escargots! And I am more likely squeamish... Best is with butter, garlic and herbs IMHO, but I have had them many ways. Most recently en croute with cream sauce (& in the US!). ๐
@nedboulting Hey Ned, is it true you said on the broadcast that Remco pulling Tadej up the Mur was a smart move? It seems to me that anyone but UAE ever pulling for Tadej (purposely or not) is really... well, stupid. Your thoughts welcome.
