I live with 6 Vietnam veterans with mental illness and I work during the day with homeless people who are unsheltered...so can you guess my political affiliation? The streets of this small town are methy.

Canada just signed a trade deal with Ecuador so the orange juice options will increase now that Florida Oranges aren't being bought.
Oasis is a Canadian brand. Minute Maid is bottled here using Brazilian oranges.
I guess Florida can sell elsewhere? If anyone will buy it at this point…

If I was waiting on someone for a high-level meeting, and they walked in with their child (like Musk did...again), I'd walk out and tell them...as I walked, "When you've found childcare for long enough to meet with me, get in touch with us, and not a second before."

The tRump admin's January move to scrap 2021 protections against ICE arrests in schools and churches is a disgrace. Denver Public Schools is now urgently seeking a restraining order against DHS to safeguard students from these invasive immigration enforcement actions.

So basically, the Department of Health and Human Services is finished. If you want to stay safe from food recalls, viruses, and whatever else is coming—better start looking elsewhere for reliable information.

As companies shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation.
Also remember that average profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs.
