Across walls, fences, and alleys, rats not only expose our boundaries of separation but make homes in them. “Rat Film” is a feature-length documentary that uses the rat—as well as the humans that love them, live with them, and kill them—to explore the history of Baltimore. “There’s never been a rat problem in Baltimore, it’s always been a people problem”.

Well, Nancy Pelosi is one rat who left Baltimore a long time ago.

Trump could probably cause more problems by suggesting that her father, Thomas D’Alesandro Jr., was a better mayor of Baltimore and representative of the area than Cummings ever was.

He compared them to the Baltimore area of Cummings’ district, claiming the West Baltimore section of the Congressman’s district was in a worse state. A mashup of videos featuring constituents giving a tour of one of the West Baltimore neighborhoods terrible conditions as well as a fact check on the rat situation and desirability as a place to live.

Back in the late 70s I was reading a National Geographic issue completely covering rats. Rice paddy rats are commonly caught and sold for meat in parts of SE Asia. The article mentioned a company that processed rat meat and sold it in cans labeled STAR Meats (clever turn of a word). At least at the time, some was being shipped to Oriental grocers in parts of the U.S.

“...Ha ha, they either air it and vindicate President Trump or censor it and vindicate President Trump.....”
LMAO...Yep!
No matter what they do: air it or not air it, it vindicates the POTUS.
These people are stupid.

We’re not going to see it tonight. The article’s from over a year ago, Feb 26, 2018. My OOPS, too, also my apologies.

I use a paywall killer that resets the view counter to zero.
It doesn’t always work, though. I can’t find where I got the app, but it was suggested to me on FR. Maybe someone remembers.

One of the most bizarre songs ever written. A great melody but oh! - wait a minute - it’s a song about a rat! Huh??
