In reply to Theresa Ramus. As I've said before, feeding kids works. We do it at S.A.Y. Play and it makes a difference.

In reply to JPW. Not only are there alternative facts, but some people seem to have different definitions for words like "mercy."

Perhaps when Mulvaney is looking over government waste, he can take a second look at how much this government is spending on Trump’s weekend golf outings to Mar-A-Lago – currently somewhere in the $2-$3M per round trip. He claims he does the nation’s business on the links. Well, to paraphrase Mulvaney, “there’s no demonstrable evidence he’s doing that”. So perhaps Trump can just start using the WH to conduct the nation’s business on a more regular basis. And then he can reallocate those travel dollars to help those who really need it.

This is so sad and yes actually when I was working at the retirement community years ago in Roch. I became aware of the meals on wheels and walked to raise funds for it. Surprisingly even in a rich area so many seniors depended on this program. They need to get a committee that goes over wasted money in Washington on things and do some budget cuts with that first. Food is important for the older folks and the young.
