@Fish4Allmankind @ORDiscussion Note crab, shellfish, squid and octopus are exempt. They aren't "animals" under the statue. Fish are covered. Am I wrong?
I think mealworm flour production will remain legal.

It's crazy.

@Fish4Allmankind @ORDiscussion Me: I plan to vote. Also, to prove to myself that I'm behind this post, I just gave OHA $75.
Civil disobedience can come later.

Unearthed footage shows Trump's acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte receiving strange award:

"This says 'Bill Pulte Fucks' ... it does say, 'Only The Young' on the back here."

@FinancialPhys You work for money so that you are able to pay tax. See the hut tax in colonial South Africa. Don't pay the tax and the governor has soldiers burn down your house. Now we just have an armed Sheriff evict you and change the locks.

@GeoRebekah Has he admitted keeping a tarpon for a trophy? It's pretty bad style. Catch & release in Florida and NC. One fish in GA & SC.

@LarsLarsonShow Join or start a union. Because otherwise Lars is right. If supply is high, price (wage) is low.

@EricMGarcia Google says 1 in 5 married men have an affair in 1st year of marriage. I'll stop supporting him after his 1st stroke.

Donald Trump's war with Iran has cost American households $100 billion — so far.

That’s nearly $750 per household.

Jesse Watters attacks James Talarico for being "37 and not married" but watters has nothing to say about Lindsey Graham being an unmarried 70-year-old!.

BOMBSHELL: Former DOJ official Anthony Coley says Pam Bondi held a meeting inside the White House Situation Room to pressure Republican lawmakers against supporting the Epstein files discharge petition.

Think about how extraordinary that allegation is.

The Situation Room is supposed to be associated with war, terrorism, national security crises, military operations.

It was used to coordinate political resistance against forcing the public release of Epstein-related files.

Coley’s point was simple:

Todd Blanche may now be taking the heat publicly…
but Bondi herself was allegedly directly involved behind the scenes trying to stop the pressure campaign from gaining momentum in Congress.

As ranking member on the Natural Resources Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, I forced a vote to subpoena Don Trump Jr. to expose the blatant corruption committed by the Trump family. 

And what did House Republicans do? They quickly ended the hearing. 

It is repulsive that billionaires in this country are using the presidency to get richer, while working families are struggling to get by. I will continue to fight with everything I have to end the corruption. Stay loud.

@BeaverSports Crabbing is allowed under IP28! Petitioners don't care about arthropods! Squid and octopus beware.

IP28 is crazy. I oppose it and will donate to a No on IP28 campaign.

OR Democrat.

@the_jabronie @KATUNews Is this like how the Right's drive to repeal the 19th amendment shows how irrational the Conservatives are?
I'm on the far left. I fish. I enjoy foie gras in Portland restaurants - had some last November. Wonderful stuff. Like the Crook County Democrats, I oppose IP28.

And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.

A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.

Lets make this viral again 👇

The Schrödinger Strait of Hormuz, where the U.S. both controls it and doesn’t control it at the same time!

I have, however, observed that gas prices are sky high because of the actions of trump and his rubber stamp House Republicans.

November is coming.

@ducktapewilldo @MarioNawfal Charlotte NC whitewater park. Fun artificial whitewater.

[Rutger Bregman @rcbregman]

This sounds nice, but it's a great way to undermine the welfare state.

The strongest welfare states in the world (the Nordics) tax everyone, including nurses. And they give everyone universal healthcare, childcare, pensions, education in return.

When the middle class has skin in the game, they defend the system. When welfare is 'just for the poor', it becomes a poor program: stigmatized, underfunded, easy to gut.

That's why billionaires keep pushing this idea. The real scandal isn't that this nurse pays $12k.

It's that Jeff Bezos pays $0.
