I love sharing data and debunking wrongs on all things oil and gas prices and try to save everyone money by giving heads up on what’s coming to your gas (or diesel) pump. I’d be forever grateful if you shared my account so others can follow and stay up to date!

Maybe someone is just trying to reset time to November 8, 2016 so they can warn everyone not to vote for Trump.

Everyone notices the increase in grocery prices, but the increase doesn’t affect everyone equally. Donate to your local food bank if you can more easily absorb the higher prices.
One in six Oregonians relies on food assistance through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which is fully funded by the federal government.

I’ve reviewed a lot of photos/videos from #NoKings rallies across the country, & I haven’t seen a single thing that would cause anyone to think this was a “hate America” protest. Did someone forget to invite Antifa & Hamas? Also, Soros is gonna go broke with the number of participants.

PROFOLUS: Researchers headed by Nadav Ahituv wondered what would happen if normal cells are given the ability to outcompete cancer cells for nutrients. This curiously drew their attention to adipocytes or fat cells.

I live near Portland, & admittedly am not always a fan of everything that happens in the city, but THIS is freaking fantastic! Portland has been doing protests since the ‘60s. it’s part of the culture (oh, another protest “yawn”). This exceeds effective! Well done, my fellow Oregonians!

I was all prepared for my telehealth appt this morning, then discovered it was rescheduled for an office visit next week. Congress needs to get their act together & pass legislation that makes telehealth a permanent option. @wyden.senate.gov @jeff-merkley.bsky.social @repdexteror.bsky.social

Isaac Stanley-Becker traveled to Portland and spent time at the demonstration that Donald Trump wants to crush. What he found is an atmosphere that is more like a carnival than combat:
Portland’s ‘War Zone’ Is Like Burning Man for the Terminally Online
There’s more absurdity than menace on the city’s streets—at least for now.

Eight months after the Department of Government Efficiency effort to shrink the federal workforce began, some agencies are hiring workers back – and spending more money than before.

I’m watching local news this morning. Live shot outside the ICE building shows zero fires & a single protestor. Don’t listen to Trump’s lies!

Pass a law. Make them unmask.

And once we have a new Congress and a new POTUS, abolish ICE.

I think of this man and his words often now:
