The poorest among us will need our help. Donate to local food banks if you can.

8. Musk

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* million from an NYC bank account!

10. ICE

Do I need a link for this? Some of the workers in the Palm Springs area are afraid to go to service jobs because of the threat of Ice raids. I’m fairly sure it isn’t limited to this area. If you are afraid to go to work, where do you turn? Just seems to me that helping our neighbors is exercising our strength.

2. I believe you but I would like to know exactly how.

We need to know how they are doing it so we can figure out how best to fight it.

3. They are shutting down gov't offices, agencies, departments.

They are firing federal workers that administer and staff the programs.

We see every day how they are doing it.

6. Yes I know. I just thought that it would be a good idea to mention all of these things.

Thank you.

4. It certainly looks like it's headed in that direction. The evidence will be that

expected checks stop arriving. I guess that is what we must be on the lookout for. But I do think it's only a matter of time--and it won't be everybody. It will be a select chosen few as they test us, to see what they can get away with.

Then we have to hope that journalists report it.

7. I'll say this...............

I went to Costco this morning, the one on Hindry Ave, Hawthorne, CA.

It opens at least by 9:50 a.m. I ran straight to the egg section which was completely crowded. 1 Package of 60 white or brown eggs cost $18.69 with a limit of 3 packages.

Anywho, before we went in, and it's raining, I didn't see the scope of the length of people waiting. When Costco opened I saw the line.

It reminded of COVID 19 era. The line was wrapped around the Costco building.
