  6. Suivi des greffes de pommier de debut mars.
    Les chipbulding sont quasiment toutes des échecs, soit découverte trop tôt soit pas prises.
    Par contre les anglaises, ça pousse a 100%.
    Parfois 2 bourgeons ont demarrés, j'ai rabattu le plus petit en gardant la base et quelques bourgeons neoformés en cas de tuile.
    En voici quelques une en photo dont une du 15 mars.

    J'ai eu des bourgeons floraux dans plusieurs cas, j'ai pincé les fleurs pour laisser le bourgeons a bois prendre de l'ampleur.

  8. Shameless #bribery; further evidence that #Trump and his horde believe they are untouchable. Why #grift in secret if you believe you cannot be stopped?

    "In a document quietly filed with the Federal Election Commission on Friday night, #MAGA Inc., the primary Super PAC supporting President Trump, revealed that it received a $5 million donation from #Crypto.com on January 23, 2026. The donation was made in the name of Crypto.com’s parent company, Foris Dax, Inc. 25 days later, on February 17, the Trump administration’s Commodities Futures Trading Commission (#CFTC), intervened on Crypto.com’s behalf in high-stakes lawsuit in federal court."

  20. Jeet Heer explains how Trump became "the biggest crook in the history of democracy. The penny-ante bribes of his first term have given way to billions in graft. ...

    The sad truth is that Trump is corrupt on a scale that dwarfs anything ever seen in an advanced democracy."

    "Won't that be awkward," the assistant asked.

    "Not at all. It will never need a backscracher."

  30. A quotation from Herbert Hoover

       The duty of public men in this Republic is to lead in standards of integrity — both in mind and money.
       Dishonor in public life has a double poison. When people are dishonorable in private business, they injure only those with whom they deal or their own chances in the next world. But when there is a lack of honor in Government, the morals of the whole people are poisoned.
       Some folks seem to think these are necessary evils in a free government. Or that it is smart politics. Those are deadly sleeping pills. No public man can be just a little crooked.

    Herbert Hoover (1874-1964) American engineer, bureaucrat, US President (1929-33)
    Speech (1951-08-30), “Concerning Honor in Public Life,” Iowa Centennial Celebration, Des Moines, Iowa (radio broadcast)

    It’s hard for me to understand the massive amount of public sector #CORRUPTION that Americans think is acceptable.

    Why do so many people consider #bribery, #fraud, #selfdealing, #graft, and other #corrupt actions by the regime and its supporters to be okay? Is it just widespread #cynicism or something else?

    Why are people not outraged anymore about the #dishonesty of public servants?

  34. Perpetuating the travesty and NYT is complicit. #ClarenceThomas filed an "updated" financial disclosure report that does nothing but continue the lies he has told for 30+years about the #graft he continues to receive. For all of us who have had to file Real Financial Disclosure Reports annually, subject to multiple layers of review, his #lies are beyond the pale. int.nyt.com/data/documenttools #thurgoodMarshall #SCOTUS #corruption #ethics #integrity #truth #justice #authoritarianism

  35. #trees #gemel specimen in #Wsanec / #Saanich - #fir & #cedar 🌲 This is an example of when trees #naturally #graft themselves & increase their #survival rates. Some trees have broken branches & they find parts of healthier trees to graft onto & keep growing. I love spotting gemels in the #forest 🥰
