I may be totally wrong (or my memory could be off) — but didn’t Pres. Trump talk some months back about essentially washing America’s hands of Ukraine? Or, at least something to the effect of “This isn’t our war”, etc.? If that memory is accurate, how come the U.S. is still sending military aid to them?
(If I’m conflating Ukraine with something else, I’ll be embarrassed, but I’d rather know than not know.)
“As a fan of gardens of all kinds, I admire your efforts. If things get worse with the drought, you might consider drip or soaker hose. “
Excellent thought!
There are multiple 1/4” drip products available including drip heads (1/2, 1 and 2 GPH) that attach to 1/4” hose that can be run for 100’s of feet as well as 1/4” drip tubing...
We irrigate about 20 pots twice a day with drip heads and have for 15 years (at least). I also irrigate 40+ new Dougls Fir trees with drip heads in the field.

These are controlled from a hose bib with Orbit multiple B-hyve controllers:
Saves a massive amount of time!
Also you can attach a timer to your sprinkler to allow you more freedom.
Best!

Not positive but think there is a high probability this is AI generated.

Texas Penal Code Section 36.02

Wow! There’s a very clear demarcation line. Fascinating.
Excellent information from both of you! Thank you.
There is a line like that where the Pacific meets the Indian Ocean, about 1/4 mile wide.
Point of negotiations. First, as I understand it, we are selling upgraded defensive weapons to Europe and then they are giving (?) their vintage models to Ukraine.
Likewise, 'washing our hands of Ukraine' to move Zelenski - and Europe - off of a 'war now!' platform.
The weapons deal has not taken place; Ukraine has received nothing (as I understand it.) Trump meets with Putin in Alaska this week - anything and everything is on the table. To an extreme, for example, Trump could offer to deliver Zelenski to Putin for execution... and vice versa... everything is on the table!
When war negotiations are at stake - hold on to your hat! A frozen position is possibly a peace breaker. Don't be too swift to judge negotiating ploys. OTOH, presume that some principles are nearly inviolate.

For more than 35 years, Armenia and Azerbaijan have fought a bitter conflict that resulted in tremendous suffering... many tried to find a resolution... and they were unsuccessful. With this Accord, we’ve finally succeeded in making peace! https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/08/president-trump-brokers-another-historic-peace-deal/

On Monday a Press Conference will be held at the White House which will, essentially, stop violent crime in Washington, D.C. It has become one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the World. It will soon be one of the safest!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT
