He’s going to kill people for oil.

A Baptist lady named Ada ran a convalesce out of the house next to my grandparents, taking in poor, sick people who went to her church. She also helped raise my mom and her 15 siblings. Her recipes are always made to have some to give away. This is an ancient, very humble coffee cake.

My dog just made me take her outside so she could get a stick to bring inside to play with. She is currently playing with it right next to a basket of about 30 toys she never touches.

Inside Trump’s scramble to reduce US dependence on Chinese rare-earth metals

My friend @drannieandrews.com will be Lindsey Graham's opponent.
She is a pediatric surgeon who has performed spinal surgeries on children, running against a grownup with no spine. Dr. Andrews is poised to perform a full Lindsey-ectomy on the United States Senate.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.
Wanna fix fraud and abuse?
Fix that.

“According to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.”
“SNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.”
