In addition to this one that has our attention, the FDOT ordered all crosswalks in the state returned to original condition. See Gainesville for another example.

They were in the gate area and wouldnβt let us enter to scan our boarding pass without pulling out our ID. My first flight was delayed so I had run from the other side of the airport to make this flight and just wanted on the airplane. It was not logical.
Pam Arlyn ππ (@parlyn.bsky.social) reply parent
I had to show my ID to ICE agents at the Seattle airport last week prior to boarding my flight to Oregon.

I want to hear her tell the court how she met Trump. It would also be interesting to hear how she ended up in photos with Epstein and Trump. Empty threats.

Iβm flying today. On my final leg, there were ICE agents at the gate and we were required to show ourID along with boarding pass before interacting with Delta personnel. This was Seattle!

My first attempt was a pork tenderloin. Follow instructions in Traeger cooking section or on website. Very easy. And very good.

Although a one time donation is helpful and appreciated, making a monthly pledge provides guaranteed income in this unstable time.

Itβs great you do this. My daughter is a 4th grade teacher in Florida so send her some love. She posted her list on Facebook and was delighted by the immediate response from friends and also families whose children she had taught, some ten years ago. People are good when you give them a chance.

On my daily walk, I pass an osprey nest high up on a perch. Two birds, sometimes one, obviously waiting for chicks. I hope to see the babies before they fly away.

That could be the result of receiving an email from the Social Security Administration saying so. I got one shortly after bill was signed and now wonder who sent it.
Pam Arlyn ππ (@parlyn.bsky.social) reply parent
Democrats in a Republican stronghold. They are invisible in Florida. So this is on point.
Pam Arlyn ππ (@parlyn.bsky.social)
I just received an email from the Social Security Administration lauded the bill passed today for helping seniors. It credited no tax on social security benefits as the main reason. So someone in the Trump admin had this ready to roll out and claim victory.

Meanwhile, the shooter is still shooting and the fire is still burning. I hope others donβt get the idea that they can start a fire and shoot the responders.

Did he start the fire to lure them there? What is happening to our country?
Pam Arlyn ππ (@parlyn.bsky.social) reply parent
For someone who has been in Congress for a while, I think they sought to fight for the people, not the President and his minions. What is happening now is unprecedented in our lifetime.
