Well, greetings from College Park, MD and the friendly confines of Chateau du Bob & Raine!
Disclaimer: I was not actually confined for the evening.
I have been travelling, making my annual trip to Florida to check in on my elderly relative, as well as a certain rodent in Orlando.
I was able to arrange an overnight stop, and your ruling blog Tribunal is all in the same place for the first time since 2009.
A lone story for today, considering that I drove past this yesterday, I can confirm that all the highway signs currently read "Fort Liberty" A rare campaign promise that was actually kept -they'll be reverting to Fort Bragg soon.
But that's not all - where's DOGE when we could actually use them?
Nice, huh?
That's all for today. I'll be headed out in a while. Fortunately, the Four Freedoms Capitol Compound is just an 8 hour drive from home.

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. — When it came to picking a name for his business, Ralph Rodriguez rolled the dice. He went with Fort Liberty Pawn & Gun.
It’s going to cost him about $30,000.
“That’s signage, uniforms, stationery, business cards, advertising, and state licensing changes and federal changes,” he said.
When he was filing his incorporation papers last fall, Rodriguez knew one of President Donald Trump ’s campaign promises was to restore the names of Confederate officers — like Gen. Braxton Bragg — to military installations rebranded under the Biden administration. But it seemed to Rodriguez that he should go with the installation's name as it was at the time.
“We were trying to attach ourselves to the military base and show support for them, because we know that’s going to be our customers," he said with a shrug. "I could care less about Braxton Bragg.”
Less than a month into Trump's second term, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered the installation rechristened Fort Bragg, this time in honor of World War II paratrooper Roland Bragg of Maine. [Wink, wink, ndge, nudge - Ed.]
But that's not all - where's DOGE when we could actually use them?
In 2023, the state spent $163,000 to change all the Fort Bragg highway signs to Fort Liberty. Switching them back is expected to run over $200,000.
Nice, huh?
