Opinion Columnist By Mary Keyes Rogers | Feb. 8, 2025 I am willing to admit to liking some of Trump’s bold actions. Enforcing current immigration law is an example. I like rules and have little tolerance for people taking cuts in lines.
Rules and laws are good things. They keep us civilized, and life is most orderly when we all agree to honor them. However, my elbows sharpen when rules and laws are ignored, and chaos sets in.

Bottoms Up Feb. 8, 2025 We still have several weeks of winter ahead of us, so let’s raise a glass to the classic: the Hot Toddy. The drink can trace its roots back to the 1700s, and has evolved throughout the centuries based on ingredients and tastes. (In Canada, they often swap the honey for maple syrup!) Grand Traverse Distillery offers a version of the classic winter warmer ($13) at their downtown TC tasting room.
