Colorado’s own USAID
I
will get to the point after some background information. In and around Denver,
the name, “Rose”, has special meaning. Denver native, General Maurice Rose,
died in WWII while personally leading men in combat. That may not have been
wise for a man of his rank, but that is what he did. He was Jewish, and the
local Jewish community have established a hospital in his name. My oldest son
was born in that hospital.
Co-opting
his name is the Rose Foundation.

They
have long been used in ways similar to USAID. They receive some taxpayer money
as grants. They spend it how they please with no applied oversight (except for
a wink and a nod). Outsiders are now trying to investigate, again, where the
money goes and who controls the expenditures. Alas, no Elon Musk power here.
Magnesium
Critical metal; we rely on China and Russia for what we
need. Not smart, IMO.

Key phrase from the above article.
“Wyoming is a phenomenal state to work
with when it comes to natural resources and this type of research.”
Humor
My wife used to complain that
I ruined our anniversaries. That was ridiculous, cause I didn’t know it was our
anniversary in the first place. (Yes, I’m still divorced.)

Democrats, everywhere? What is a
balance sheet?
Financial mismanagement and a desire for no transparency seem
to be an integral part of the Democrat Party, even in Wyoming.

Key takeaways. Case and others noted that the party hadn’t had a consistent treasurer
for about five years. Case said it took him about six months
to sort through the party’s finances and put together his report.
“I’m not comfortable with the press taking
pictures of our budget,” said O’Doherty. “I would formally request the media
not share any of this information outside the room.”
Wyoming is so overwhelming GOP the Democrat Party is more
of a social club. They do occasionally get a RINO elected, as an example, Liz
Cheney.
Colorado 8th Congressional
District
The district I live in was added after the last census.
The first election was won, narrowly, by a Democrat. The second was won,
narrowly, by a Republican. At this time, five Democrats have announced their intent
to run for the seat at mid-terms. Already I’m receiving mailers vilifying the
GOP incumbent.
There must be money to be made. Last election,
$40,000,000 spent.

$40 million for one pissant Congressional seat.
As always, YMMV

Sounds like the bloom is OFF the Rose...and it's hard to follow the money when it's hidden behind layers of obfuscation! Wow, that is a LOT for one little seat... And there must be a long list of 'you owe us XXX' that goes with winning.
What bothers me is both candidates are basic decent people. The pressures on those elected must be overwhelming. As far "Rose" goes, that playbook is standard (P)regressive SOP nationwide.
Anonymous. Put a name on your comments.
Senator Cory Booker said that “President Donald Trump was attempting to “incite” violence at “peaceful protests” PEACEFUL PROTESTS??? IS HE KIDDING! Does the Senator Call Burning Police Cars “PEACEFUL? Does the Senator call Burning American Flags Peaceful? These people want to BURN the American Flag, and Wave around the Mexican Flag, then Let them go the Hell To Mexico and do it!
