Idaho is home

My mother screams at me over Idaho so I decided to write something that is a little more nuanced. I'm not interested in living in Colorado. As a matter of fact I hate it. Idaho is my home. My friends are there, my doctor is there. My insulin pump trainer is there, my life is there. You're screaming is part of who you are now and I'm not sure how to deal with it. I'm grateful I have friends like Natalie and Allison who understand. Diane has called during some of your episodes so it's well documented. Lying to me,lying to your doctor about dad and me is not helping you. As a matter of fact your causing a huge problem. So I'm leaving you here. I'm going home. At least there people are nice and not wholly random

The EPA and the 47th President

Executive branch agencies help the federal government reach the American people. The current administration seems not to understand how this works. In fact, they've fired administrators, watchdogs and other agency leaders that are protected by the constitution, the Administrative Procedures Act and internal agency rules that have stood the rest of time and have been brought before Article 3 judges, and other forms of review. The Environmental Protection Agency is a constant target. But it's main job is to protect American rivers, forests, deserts and tundra from over zealous building, mining and other expensive and unregulated overuse of natural resources.

Today he lied to Ukraine's President Zelensky possibly derailing the Ukrainian peace process. Trump is not a kind and the constitution is why. The

Constitutional travesty

Image
The Founders understood that monarchy too often developed a problem with people expressing themselves whether through religion, political view, land holding or other wealth. They also liked holding on to wealth in the "public interest." That might be where anti historical and indeed fascist influences reach American politics today.  Certain Trump is ignorant of history and hopelessly ignorant of both foreign relations and interior politics and structure. By this I means he has no idea of the division of powers or that he theoretically is Article One and that he's violating the 14th and 25th Amendments.    Whether he cares or not is another question. If he does he's doing a great job perturbing the bulk of our allies and ignoring America's rich history in so many areas. He's also perturbed our European allies, alienated much of the Middle East, Africa as well as Mexico, Canada, and Central America.  Isolationism has never been America's strong points but it...
