Same thing at Trader Joe's - the place was almost empty! At the TJ's near my house they usually have every checkout lane open and the lines are still 4-5 deep.

I'm really starting to like this place...

Momma does not buy into that plan.

Same here. She likes good tequila. I’m not going to buy cheap tequila in plastic bags and try to convince her it’s good.

No bags-o-wine here.

I will say that Total Wine is owned by a huge douche named David Trone. An antiTrump vomitus wad. Do yourself a favor and look up Total Wine Minnesota lawsuit.

Total Wine is trying to become the WalMart of booze.

Is there a law prohibiting politicians from owning a business?

David Trone is my (ick) congressman. He bought his way in. In fact, here’s a note from him after I sent him a nasty note about the border.

Dear Mr. Armstrong,

Thank you for contacting me regarding immigration. I appreciate your reaching out to me, and I agree that meeting the needs of Americans must be our government’s first priority. Baltimore is a great American city full of hardworking people. I believe that we must support the people of Baltimore while celebrating all of the hard-earned progress that the city has made. I will continue to advocate for the people of Baltimore and fight for more resources for our state.

However, we should not turn our back on all of the individuals seeking refuge or a new life in our nation. I believe that immigration strengthens our country. No one disputes that we must have fair immigration laws and that we must guard our borders against those who would come here unlawfully. However, most people who wish to come to our great nation do so legally. They work hard, pay taxes, start businesses, and support their families. They become our friends and neighbors. They make our nation more powerful and more vibrant.

During my time in Congress, I will continue to support comprehensive immigration reform that protects our borders, ensures a fair immigration system, and protects the rights of all Americans and those on the path to citizenship. We must finally reach an agreement to allow the Dreamers who were brought to this country as children to continue contributing to our nation. We must uphold our laws that ensure due process to those who come here seeking asylum. We must continue to support Temporary Protected Status (TPS), which helps immigrants find their footing. And we must pass comprehensive immigration reform that creates a path to citizenship.

Please know that I respect your beliefs even though I do not share them. I am honored to represent constituents with diverse perspectives. I hope you will continue to stay in touch.

Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me about this important issue. Your comments help me to better represent Maryland's 6th District. If you need further assistance, please call my office at (301) 926-0300.
Sincerely,

David Trone
