I think I need to move to Hawaii. I know! This is what is so crazy. Who cares if he is going to veto it, make a bill that will have enough votes to override it. My gosh.

I don't want to further devolve the FFFC so I'll say this here: I can completely understand that this is a challenging time for Conservatives bc of Trump. My question is, "What are you doing about it?" The so called big C Conservatives on the Hill have completely capitulated to Trump and Trumpian politics. Plenty of other big C Conservatives have spoken out against Trumpism and all its trimmings and I don't think anyone is shouting their heads off. The problem isn't with conservatives or conservative principles, it's with the modern Republican party.

Grassley says things that sound good but then never does anything about it. He's the OG of sad tweets and fecklessness

Oh my gosh, why would anyone do that? WTF is wrong with people? A local resident quoted in the story is quadriplegic. He has been going to pick up trash and clean bathrooms, so there is good, but yeah. I don't understand the need to destroy trees or spray paint rocks, which is also happening. A FB parenting group I'm in that is a little bit not maintream posted about this saying how its one of the long term effects of how most people parent/were raised - follow rules, external rewards, do what parents/authorities say, fend for yourself - and then rebel when the authorities/parents aren't looking. Amplified.
People are gross and I never would have thought of it that way. But that group often mentions that we are changing the world by raising children with respect, empathy, and communication skills...so that was hopeful. A little.

There is also the centuries old history of conflict over land use in the American West. There are so many people who believe public lands should be more available for grazing/farming/recreational use and resent any restriction on the land. And a lot of them really do not give a damn about the Joshua trees, cultural artifacts, or unique ecosystems and endemic organisms. A number of the Joshua trees were cut down to open up a road for ATVs. It makes me want to scream.

The fbi opened an investigation into 45 and if he was secretly working for Russia after he fired Comey. They did not investigate because they were unsure how to proceed.
