    #Alfalfa is not the enemy. It’s actually a beneficial legume. The article says “Cattle-feed #crops, like alfalfa, consume 90% of all water used by Upper Basin agriculture.” So it’s not just alfalfa but includes other crops used for livestock feed.

    In arid and semi-arid areas of the US, there are always trade-offs and pressures as to whom benefits from the limited #water supplies. In the end, some irrigated crops may come up short.

  2. “I will never regret joining the military; I would do it all over again. Someone had to protect America, while others amused themselves to death. But would I join today’s military? Absolutely not.” —Will Selber

    Laura Gamboa, assistant professor of #democracy and global affairs in the Keough School of Global Affairs at the Univ. of Notre Dame, describes many #resistance strategies as well as explains why they work (or don’t work).

    Good info and interesting too!

    This is a frank and informative article about the decline in the public confidence of #scotus under #chiefjusticeRoberts, from a memoir by recently retired judge David Tatel from the DC Court of Appeals.

    One of the reasons Tatel gave for his retirement was "... a Supreme Court that seemed to hold in such low regard the principles to which I've dedicated my life."

    I hope more judges - active and retired - will speak out about these issues.

    “It’s a significant risk,” Mark Zandi, the chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, told me. Enacting Trump’s agenda would probably be a “corrosive event” rather than an immediate disaster, he said, but “there is a reasonable probability that we go over the cliff.”

    “The #GOP stands virtually no chance of stabilizing the nation’s finances, the Republican economist Douglas Holtz-Eakin told me. The only question, he said, is “how much worse will it be when they’re done?””
