Maples (again!): in our front garden.

Two small Japanese maples in pots by a cream-painted house wall. One maple is red, the other a pinky-orange. Behind and to the right is a pyracantha covered in red berries trained below a window.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.
