Trump’s attacks on Vineyard Wind are attacks on union jobs and American wallets. This will make our nation weaker, our energy costs higher, and our families less certain about how they’re going to make ends meet.

Two federal courts confirm what we already knew:

Trump must use contingency funds to fund SNAP this month.

But millions will still see their benefits delayed because Trump tried to hold SNAP hostage.

No more games. Use all available resources to ensure no one goes hungry.

Maintaining our ranking as a top state for safety starts with investing in law enforcement.

We just broke ground on a new facility and crime lab in Mankato to strengthen investigative, laboratory, and training services for law enforcement agencies throughout southern Minnesota.

Magnificent views of New York City from the Top of the Rock. Can only think why have so many people left their lights on unnecessarily?

Coronation Street - written by Malcolm Lynch (3rd November 1969). Ena proves to be a less than willing patient.

This was the first episode recorded in colour (apart from the titles and film sequences) although ITV, not counting test transmissions, was still airing in black and white at this point.

Deep alignment between the EU and U.K. could close this hole and deliver GDP growth for both sides. This is worth listening to. Tell him he was right then and to do the right thing now 🎧👇
Starmer is well aware of what needs to be done. Here is what he said when voting for Johnson's UK-EU deal.

Services "a gaping hole", "lack of ambition", "Imperfect", "thin", "a basis to build on".

Share, to show the PM that you back him going further and faster to improve our deal with the EU. ~AA

Cant open, but these Dominican friars are Opus Dei in everything but name. This particular order has all but taken over Catholic University in DC. That story has never been reported in DC mainstream media.

I wrote about Nazism in a small Michigan town, and in a large North American country; about the uses of and limits of shame; and on the importance of holding shared standards. www.the-reframe.com/the-death-of...
The Death of Shame
Modern Nazis, careless people, and the offensive necessity of caring in a shameful age.
