Wednesday

This is the kind of thing we need to be focused on like a laser. It has an absolutely huge effect on our lives. Farmers going bankrupt while grocery prices are going up? Might that not be something to check into? Might there not be some (I dunno) compassion and kindness considerations related to vast numbers of people keeping their farms or being able to afford food?

But, no. ICE and Epstein crack swamps the conversation.
