Biden Does NOT need a BILL to close the border
He only needs a PEN. Thats all he needed to open it.
Thats all he needed to close it. Thats all Trump needed.
Maybe this is just Proof Trump is better than Biden.

We have our eclipse glasses and the tripod is all set up with the camera on it and we have the eclipse glasses over the lens to protect it.  All we have to do is to step outside the door and join the neighbors.  We are right in the path of totality.  We went to a few events over the weekend which were a lot of fun.  We howled at the Moon Friday night and ate free corn on the cob at the festival "total eclipse of the cob" yesterday.  It starts here at about 9 am when you can see the approach of the moon to the total eclipse at around 10.15 am.

I'm not ruining my camera....and we can't look up but will be on the patio to see if the crickets and cicadas start chirping. We're  close to 80% seeing it.

Yesterday I watched the moon rise where the sun comes up. I think that is Venus up there too.

It was pretty amazing here watching the world go dark and so chilly.  My resident genius went into his workshop and customized our eclipse glasses to protect our eyes more and we watched from start to finish with a perfect view from our deck.  When totality occurred there were big yells and cheers that could be heard all over our neighborhood.  Our solo paper plates became solar paper plates, lol!
