BREAKING: France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Spain & UK sign a joint statement vowing to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty & demanding a role in the peace talks.
This is leadership.
It’s also unprecedented.
A western alliance is having to form against a new, twin & united threat: Trump & Putin.

Everything is higher. Why not my electric too?
Pennsylvanians will see higher electric bills this summer, but don’t blame your local power company just yet. Soaring “capacity costs” are to blame, and they’re largely out of the control of entities like West Penn Power and Duquesne Light. Not even the state’s Public Utility Commission gets a say.
Keeping the electric grid humming is costing consumers more

A suggestion, we start sending postcards to our representatives and senators every time we get angry about something in this mess. It's small, but let's the govn't know we won't stand by like sheep. It's a small realistic option for right now.

JFK on why he founded USAID.
“The economic collapse of those free but less-developed nations which now stand poised between sustained growth and economic chaos would be disastrous to our national security, harmful to our comparative prosperity and offensive to our conscience”.

I'm so glad we're gonna have cheap eggs!
Let’s be clear, Trump’s tariffs will be paid by Americans. Like a tax.
They will raise prices across the board. On food. On gas. On families. On small businesses.
An average American can expect to pay an annual tax of around $2600.
So much for his promise of lower prices.
