Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) released the following statement today after introducing a bill authorizing President Trump to acquire Greenland and renaming it Red, White, and Blueland:

“America is back and will soon be bigger than ever with the addition of Red, White, and Blueland. President Trump has correctly identified the purchase of what is now Greenland as a national security priority, and we will proudly welcome its people to join the freest nation to ever exist when our Negotiator-in-Chief inks this monumental deal.”

PELHAM — For more than 30 years, lilac lovers from all over New England have traveled to Pelham to witness scores of lilac bushes in full bloom each spring.

Lilacland, created by Mabel and Al Lumley and run today by their son, James Lumley, features some 200 varieties of lilacs on about four acres of picturesque property.

There is no fee for visitors. On occasion, he has plants potted for sale.

In addition, Lumley is an artist, and has a gallery on the property, which features many of his prints of the property’s lilacs. He does not sell his artwork, but the gallery is usually open on the weekends and late afternoons/evenings for viewing.

Huh.
