www.calypsogrillcayman.com Fantastic restaurant in Grand Cayman. Gorgeously fresh fish cooked with French / English classic panache, coupled with a delicious Chablis wine. And they even have Armagnac for your digestive! So nice to have European cooking in a BOT despite the US looming next door

The independence of the National Archives was a small but important political cause in the 1980s. It used to live within GSA, and senators wrestled its independent status by horsetrading with Reagan. abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...

Trump dismisses Archivist of the United States 🇺🇸 “The archivist is tasked with managing NARA, and preserving and making accessible the government’s most valuable documents.” thehill.com/homenews/adm...

If Trump has replaced the Archivist of the United States, as ABC reported, the National Archives is unaware of it. A top NARA official tells me, as of now, the Senate-confirmed Archivist Colleen Shogan remains in her post as does her deputy, Jay Bosanko.

Last night, Trump sacked the Archivist of the United States for no reason (or at least none legitimate). The destruction of materials related to January 6th and Trump’s other crimes of coming. A nation without an accurate recorded preserved truth of its history is a nation without a future.

Trump has fired Colleen Shogan, the Archivist of the United States. Shogan led the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). NARA is the agency that referred Trump to DOJ after they found classified documents in boxes he returned. Shogan was NOT Archivist at the time of the referral.

What this piece lets out of the bag is, whatever is driving the far/right's hatred of trans people it is absolutely, positively not a desire to protect women from sexual violence. They are happy to celebrate a perpetrator of sexual violence, so long as he shares their hatred of trans people.

The depths of the anti-trans hatred in sections of the British media is just shocking to behold. Trans people in the UK are a tiny group of people who must constantly suffer this blazing hot ire directed upon them by self-righteous bigots for no reason at all.
