Tariffs are bringing in tens of billions of dollars a month. What happens to all that money?
Hardly a day goes by without President Donald Trump boasting about the record tariff revenue the US government has been collecting since he ratcheted up taxes on almost every imported good.

Drama, always has to be something.

Ron says there is a dark cloud hanging over this house since the day we bought it. A month or so ago they went through the park and replaced all the electric meter pedestals. Normally they site between the homes with four meters on each pedestals. Last night just before dark our back yard camera alerted us there was motion and then we noticed the power fluctuating. Turned out our neighbor had called the power company because they had problems. They were out there for hours until the power went out.

Then they left about 2 PM. Ron uses a C-Pap machine and so he was up all night. I offered to get one of the back up batteries but he did not want me to do that. This morning he contacted the power company and was told they shut the power off to the pedestal because the company the park used screwed something up and they needed to come back and fix .
So this morning Ron got the “Beast” out. It is a very large powerful generator. He ran a few heavy extension cables around to run the fridge, the living room TV, living room A/C The coffee maker and Ice machine. He ran another cord to my office to power all my computers and internet stuff. He went to the park office and they knew about the issue but did not know when they could get someone out to fix it. That means it could be days with out power running on the generator. So we will need to get the hot plates and small microwave out so we can cook. No way to do laundry. This sucks.

As Ron was up all night he is very tired. He brought his C-Pap out to the living room. At night we will run the cords powering the living room to the bedroom to power his mask and the A/c. We are waiting for a call from the vet to bring the cat in for a bolus of fluid. He has not eaten in days nor drank water. She gave us medication to make him eat and some stuff to get his stomach going. Hugs

Over 60,000 Palestinians have died in the 21-month Israel-Hamas war, Gaza’s Health Ministry says

This is not a war it is a genocide. It is shooting at captured prisoners, it is shooting trapped people who can not escape because Israeli soldiers control all the borders. It is not a war because Hamas has no way to fight back as they have rifles and Israel has fighter jets, bombs, missiles, and tanks. Pretty one sided, especially with Israel deliberately targeting aid facilities and providers. Hugs
