LA County Fadeaway: 3 Week Lockdown Coming Monday

Andrew Donaldson

Born and raised in West Virginia, Andrew has since lived and traveled around the world several times over. Though frequently writing about politics out of a sense of duty and love of country, most of the time he would prefer discussions on history, culture, occasionally nerding on aviation, and his amateur foodie tendencies. He can usually be found misspelling/misusing words on Twitter @four4thefire and his food writing website Yonder and Home. Andrew is the host of Heard Tell podcast.

      Reminds me of the people who declared that they weren’t having a wedding, they were having a George Floyd Protest and very conveniently all the people who showed up to protest were their friends and family and they brought snacks for everyone to share and from an excess of social-justice feeling spontaneously decided to affirm their love for one another right then and there. (And the photographer was there to get evidence of police brutality, had there been any.)Report

        They’re going to do this shit with the Green New Deal.

        “We’re going to have to have an Environmental Lock Down!”
        “How come you still have a Ford 450 modified with Rolling Coal?”
        “This isn’t about me. That’s a privately owned vehicle. Don’t you *CARE* about the children of the future? I thought you right-wingers were pro-life!”Report
