TWEETS OF NOTE
(@KariLake) God gave Prince so much talent. Fentanyl killed him. Fentanyl has killed millions of Americans—just think of the magnitude of the loss of all that human potential. Fentanyl is a weapon of mass destruction. Tweet.
(@RodeoProfessor) The Appeal to Heaven flag is awesome, it really bothers me that the legacy media defames this flag. It depicts the Eastern White Pine. The King of England banned our colonial ancestors from harvesting this species and his men even marked the trees that weren’t allowed to be harvested with an arrow symbol officially declaring them the crown’s pines. Colonists needed this timber for ship masts, and grew frustrated, culminating in the Pine Tree Riot in NH 1772, one of the earliest organized bits of resistance to the British. Lumber mill owners, like Ebenezer Mudgett, defied the restriction and convened his buddies to beat up a sheriff with pine switches! The pine tree later became symbol for the Massachusetts navy because of its connection to liberty and ships masts. The Eastern white pine is, poetically, a colonizing and stabilizing species often among the first trees to return after a fire. It’s the tallest conifer east of the Rockies and they live between 200-500 years! They’re a favorite nesting site for bald eagles and most importantly, they provide habitat to hundreds of species of butterfly. Tweet.
