3 things I noticed this morning early in Arizona:

1 unusually high numbers of shoppers at a grocery store 7 am when it opened. Shopper carts are full.

Hmmm, 2 Hispanic meat department staff/butchers are not at work today and the meat case has not been opened for the day.

Down the street, 7 of the 16 single family homes now appear to be occupied by a large number of men. No families, children or seniors. Each property has an average 5 vehicles parked in driveway and garage, filling front yard and along street. All vehicles are trucks, SUV or sporty cars. 2 were like this last few months. But the 5 more homes? Within the last week or two. Odd. At the least. Odd. And unsettling.

I can't say I've seen the same thing where I'm at, but the vibes are off. No doubt the vibes are "off" all over the country - just a general sense of unease setting in from obvious causes.

I read that ICE was in the northeast valley and did a round up that tried to snatch up people for removal and ended up catching Native Americans. My blood evaporated from boiling.
