Poetry, Music, Song: Melody and Lyrics are important. There is a time to stay quiet and listen. Speak to me of nature, history, people's lives in fact/fiction and everything in between. I am forever curious.
One thing from our piece on Saturday: Sen. Shaheen is leading the Senate cave caucus. She's on the appropriations committee and wants whatever little goodies she got in her appropriations bill passed into law. As we wrote:

If democrat representatives show their voters they aren’t in the fight, they’ll either get replaced or create more apathy and non-voters.

God knows I’m starting to believe this country needs to be burnt to the ground so we can start over.

@lastword.msnbc.com Sauer constantly refers to tariff as a regulation instead of a tax. Hmmmm? And, what is this emergency again? What war? What crisis? Aside from Sauer’s rushed delivery, I do not detect a fire. Did I miss something?

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Christians! Is it our Lord’s plan? Or Trump/MAGA’s plan? Ask the WW2 Nazi Regime Planners: their plan to exterminate “the undeserving, the vermin minorities”. Read OMB Trump/MAGA pick #RussellVought, #WhiteChristianNationalist and his special “PLAN” for a White America.
Tucker Carlson gave Nick Fuentes, a 27-year-old Nazi, white supremacist leader, podcaster and organizer, his biggest platform ever.

This week:Arizona food banks are already seeing increased demand as the freeze on SNAP benefits nears www.kjzz.org/politics/202... Ask Russell Vought his White Nationalist Christian/GOP/MAGA party, So this is what Jesus our Lord desires?
Arizona food banks are already seeing increased demand as the freeze on SNAP benefits nears
Food stamps are about to run out for hundreds of thousands of Arizonans. That’s already having an impact on Arizona’s food banks.
