the thing about “bread and circuses” is that you’re not supposed to double the price of bread and then become the circus

Kennedy wants to make sure recipients of food aid are eating healthy food (and intends to restrict SNAP benefits to ensure that.)
But has no issue with cutting the targeted USDA programs that make fresh local produce available to low income folks and kids eating school lunches.

Make it make sense.

Most of us have used Global Positioning System (GPS) for navigation & we can thank Gladys West for creating the foundation for GPS.

She used her mathematical & programming expertise to invent an accurate model of the Earth.

She was inducted into the US Air Force Hall of Fame.

If you oppose DEI you should have to use the full phrase, “I oppose diversity, equity and inclusion.”

Bonus points if you add your points, “I oppose disabled veterans equal access to employment.” “I oppose mothers having jobs.”

Making it an acronym turns it into a thought-terminating cliche.

So, "it's because of DEI" is the new "it's Biden's fault"

I'm almost curious how he will pin the price of eggs on this. Did we.... Employ bird flu, in an effort not to discriminate?

This is exactly what I have been mulling over.
We saw this email already. And as I recall, it hasn't done twitter any favors... What's the definition of insanity again?

Bishop Mariann Budde on the role of faith in young people's lives:

"It's not about what the Church wants them to do for our sake -- but that we are channels of love, grace, & investment in them. If there was ever an opportunity for us to be of service to those coming up behind us, it's now."
