Heh, reminds me of the Longmire novels. Wonderful descriptions of Wyoming along with a hero that is obviously anathema to progressives...a man with brains, cojones, and morals. Don’t know if the new gov is a Walt Longmire, but hopefully there are some Walts there that’ll control any influx of progressives - who always ruin whatever they touch.
Been watching the American West on Amazon and heard Keifer Sutherland praise the West for its experiment in freedom. Wonder if that was all scripted because I can’t imagine a socialist like Sutherland really approving of the American Western way of life. You mess up you were dead. No welfare system. Nothing.
