Last year, one-term Rep. Anthony D’Esposito lost after adding his mistress to his official payroll.
This year, Republicans made him the inspector general at the Dept of Labor, where he’ll be expected to investigate ethical lapses — despite his own ethical lapses. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

I winter sowed and planted hundreds of #Nativeplants this past year but I am not doing anything this year.I want to wait to see what survives the winter and then next year can see what I need to do. Only so much space. But I do plan to buy some native sedge for an area I don’t want to keep mulching
I don't really know where I'm putting all of these. But esp the lil guys like pussytoes can just go into existing beds with other plants to be ground cover. I'm sure it will all work out
