I know you’re joking, but thank the Bush administration and cost-cutting California local government, unfortunately. Apparently a decade ago, environmental groups filed a federal complaint with the FERC with the goal of getting the California Department of Water Resources to clad the emergency spillway with concrete…
If only he had a plan for some type of wall! This administration doesn’t understand the importance of walls. Not enough emphasis on walls.
Ah, but, see, we still need to “wait and see” if 45's administration is as awful as he has assured us it will be. Or, at least, so says my coworker who supports him.

You do realize you’re defending a dude who’s blatantly and thoughtlessly used the N-word multiple times, right? Hell, you might be okay with that.
On second thought maybe Hillary Clinton would have made a better president. I have spoken.
Satisfied with the slicing and dicing, yeah; the rice left a lot to be desired.
Here is a link to a PDF of the letter from Coretta Scott King. Please fax it to Mitch’s office with the header “Nevertheless, She Persisted.” His fax number is (202) 224-2499, and you can use HelloFax or any other free faxing service to send it from your computer.
