The Kitchen ^ | 08/19/15 | Advice from The Kitchn
When a friend or family member is sick, overwhelmed, homebound, or taking care of a new baby, we say what we can — So sorry. Thinking about you! — and then, because we know that won't make everything better, we do the next best thing: We bring them food. Food speaks for us when words fail, which is why putting together a thoughtful, personal food care package is one of the kindest things you can do for a struggling friend or loved one. We've thought a lot about what makes a great care package, and we finally think we've cracked...

Trump has previously trained his fire on Rubio, claiming he has the worst voting attendance record in the U.S. Senate and that he sweats a lot. But CNN learned that the Trump campaign sent a "care package" to Rubio's Washington campaign office that contained a 24-bottle case of "Trump Ice Natural Spring Water," with Trump's face on it, two "Make America Great Again" towels and bumper stickers and a note reading, "Since you're always sweating, we thought you...

Patel ran after them but was run over by the thief when he caught up with...

Washington, D.C. - The Package Coalition has launched a $2M-plus national television and radio campaign airing a 30-second spot warning Americans of the threat of a package tax proposal circulating in Washington.

A 60 second radio spot will also start airing nationally on May 7th, running initially for two weeks.

House Republican $237B Tax Cut Package Revealed: A broad tax cut package with some key tax changes. Will any provisions have bipartisan support?

Kiplinger ^ | 06/19/2023 | KELLEY R. TAYLOR
Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives are proposing about $237 billion in tax cuts on the heels of the averted debt limit crisis. It's unclear at this time, whether the trio of bills has sufficient support for a floor vote. However, the package addresses key tax changes involving research and development (R&D) credits and 1099-K relief for casual online sellers. In the past, both of those issues have shown potential for some bipartisanship. The bills include other notable proposals, including a temporary (two-year) renamed, higher individual standard deduction, and a repeal of some clean energy tax credits from the...

“I don’t have time to follow people’s twits…tweets, Twitters, whatever, tweets — so don’t expect me to comment on that,” Pelosi said. “Well, even beyond Twitter, the President of the United States is signaling that he could open it up,” Bash said. “What is your opinion on that?” Bash said pressing Pelosi. “I don’t care! I don’t care! I don’t care!” Pelosi said as CNN’s Dana Bash brought up Trump’s plans to open America back up for business soon. “It is not scientific based — he’s notion mongering,” Pelosi slurred. Of course Pelosi doesn’t care about Americans going back to...

NPR ^ | April 22, 2021 | Eli Hager and Joseph Shapiro
Tristen Hunter was 16 and preparing to leave foster care in Juneau, Alaska, when a social worker mentioned that the state agency responsible for protecting him had been taking his money for years. Hunter's mother died when he was little, and his father later went to prison, court records show, leaving him in a foster home. In the years that followed, he was owed nearly $700 a month in federal survivor benefits, an amount based on Social Security contributions from his mother's paychecks. He doesn't remember Alaska's Office of Children's Services ever informing him that it was routing this money...

PHILIP, S.D. – President Biden has been "absolutely worthless" and "has done nothing for us," residents of a small South Dakota town say as their community continues to deal with the fallout from the Keystone XL Pipeline cancelation. "He does not care," Paulette, a resident of Philip, told Fox News. "If he did care, Keystone would be going." Biden revoked the Keystone XL Pipeline's building permit his first day in office over concerns about its potential impact on the climate. "Biden and his administration ran on Build Back Better, and, that is, from where I'm standing, a load of crap,"...

For those with a biological age over 80, intensive care is not required, according to the document. The same applies to people over 70 who have significant failure in more than one organ system. Persons between 60 and 70 who have failed in more than two organ systems should also be given priority. For example, organ failure may be about people with heart, lung, and kidney diseases. (Respiration, circulation, renal function, as stated in the document). The document also states that patients who are already in intensive care should be able to have the intensive care interrupted if they belong...

Dozens of doctors, nurses and health care workers gathered outside Presbyterian Rust Medical Center in Rio Rancho Wednesday morning for a very special delivery from a young man. "I found out that I had cancer when I broke my leg when I was skiing. They x-rayed my leg. Something didn't look right, so that's when I was admitted to the hospital and then I started treatment right away. It lasted for around 5 months. I was in the hospital for about 40 nights, but right now I'm in remission,” said Sam Neale, a Make-A-Wish recipient. It was 17-year-old Sam Neale’s...

A pregnant answer at 7:40 below in response to an excellent question by Tucker Carlson: How can a populist president support an ObamaCare bill that would mostly benefit the well-off at the expense of older, blue-collar, rural Americans — the very people who put him over the top against Hillary? Is he even aware that the bill does that? “Oh, I know,” says Trump, before emphasizing that everything’s negotiable. Well … yes, but all of the negotiating that’s been done so far has been designed to please conservatives, in particular accelerating the rollback of ObamaCare’s Medicaid expansion by starting it...
 

MILITARY UPDATE Care Commission Shocker: The push to end VA health care

Sierra Vista Herald ^ | Tom Philpott
Seven of 15 outside health advisors appointed to recommend ways to improve veterans’ health services over the next two decades have proposed shutting down all VA medical centers and outpatient services, and having its nine million enrollees get their medical care in the private sector. The 34-page “straw man” document released by the congressionally-created Commission on Care, calls for an immediate halt to construction of new VA hospitals and clinics, and launch of a “BRAC-like process” to begin closing existing facilities. Shuttering the largest medical system in the country would leave the VA to be “primarily a payor” for the...

On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Velshi,” Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) said she agrees with the notion that people don’t care about gas prices if they can’t afford child care so they can work. Guest host Maria Teresa Kumar said, “One of the things that we saw was a historic infrastructure bill that passed that’s going to alleviate, not just our roads and clean water, but has implications for a brighter future when it comes to climate energy and so on and so forth. However, now, the second part of this plan, the human infrastructure, the one that will build back...

Politicians on Capitol Hill are learning what businessmen around this country already know: don’t cross Donald Trump. This is the kind of President the American people have hungered for. When a group of Republican senators joined Democrats in defeating Trump’s goal to repeal Obamacare, they messed up royally. Now they are dealing with the wrath of President Trump. You’re talking about a president who doesn’t care about political or mainstream media wars, as long as he gets the job done. Trump is not playing the typical game of politics, at least not by the same rules as the Republican and...
 

Canadian Health Care Refused to Pay for Disabled Father's Care, Happily Paid for Assisted Suicide

PJ Media ^ | 08/16/2019 | John Ellis
<p>The well-known platitude "but for the grace of God go I" played in my brain while reading the tragic story of a disabled Canadian father who chose to end his own life, leaving behind an 11-year-old son. It would be easy to judge Sean Tagert, who was diagnosed with ALS six years ago. Do I believe he made the wrong choice? Sure. But I wasn't the one who was struggling to pay for my health care after losing my ability to breath on my own or feed myself. I'm not the one living under Canada's health care system that was more than happy to pay for my suicide but not the care I needed. So, yes, I disagree with Tagert's "choice" and mourn the loss of his life, but I blame Canada and their "touted" socialized medicine.</p>

We’re told ad nauseam that the medical personnel who go to Africa are heroes. And that’s fine. I have no objection to them doing their humanitarian thing and then writing a bestselling book about it.But now that Madam Ebola is in town, it’s hard to miss the fact that these people might care about Africans, but they certainly don’t care about Americans. The city’s first Ebola patient initially lied to authorities about his travels around the city following his return from treating disease victims in Africa, law-enforcement sources said.Dr. Craig Spencer at first told officials that he isolated himself in...
