10. I live in his district-IF he is really clearing brush for entertainment
and doesn't have farm hired hands to do it, there is plenty of it here and it grows fast. There are juniper (or "cedar" trees, although they aren't true cedar) that are considered trash, there's all kinds of underbrush that grows. I read one time that he wanted to clear out the junipers to free the oaks. Well, so do I, because of water resources.

With the fires we've had this week, having less brush to burn is important.

Look, I can't stand the guy. But if his idea of relieving stress is to go out and clear brush (IF THAT IS TRUE), he's not any different than a whole lot of people in this neck of the woods, or for that matter, in this country, who enjoy going out, working on their gardens, clearing their lots, etc.

I do happen to think it's a photo op any other time of year because no one in their right mind would be out, for example, in July or August, clearing brush.
