You tell me how the First Sasquatch changed our school lunches then

Through the same threat of cutting off federal subsidies--aka EXTORTION--that has been used over and over on highway issues.

Remember the nationwide 55mph speed limit?

“Remember the nationwide 55mph speed limit? “

Actually that did improve our lives back then!

and

When gas went up to 4 bucks a gallon under obozo I went back to 55 mph even though the speed limit had gone up to 70 mph. I not only saved 20% on gas but I saved A LOT on brakes.

That I won’t complain about but denying children food in school when the First Sasquatch eats like like well a Sasquatch well that is just WRONG!

It's a shame this won't work to end "Sanctuary Cities"
and force state and local governments to
turn over illegal aliens to ICE.

At least there is some Constitutional backing for this:

Article I Section 8:

To establish Post Offices and Post Roads;
"Post Roads" was generally understood to mean main roads between major towns.
