Fetter..

 

Senator John Fetterman criticized fellow Democrats for failing to "acknowledge" that the capture of Venezuela's authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro was a positive development for the South American country.

In a social media publication, Fetterman recalled that "less than a year ago, President Biden upped the Maduro bounty to $25,000,000."

Removing Maduro was positive for Venezuela. As a Democrat, I don't understand why we can't acknowledge a good development for Venezuelans—and how deft our military's execution of that plan was," Fetterman added.

The senator is among the Democrats who have questioned the overall response of the party. Axios reported that some in the more centrist wing of the party have suggested in private that colleagues should be celebrating Maduro's capture rather than denouncing it

Outbound..

 

Recent reports from 2025 and early 2026 confirm that California continues to experience the largest net population loss of any U.S. state, with more people leaving than arriving, largely driven by high living costs, housing prices, and taxes, with Texas and Florida being top destinations, according to U-Haul data and Census Bureau figures**. For instance, California had a net loss of over 254,000 residents in one recent period, nearly double the next state, New York, say KMPH reports on U-Haul data and Retirement Living analysis**.  

California consistently leads the nation in outbound migration, experiencing significant net losses in population.  

High housing costs, cost of living, and taxes are major factors pushing residents out, notes The Desert Sun citing U-Haul data and The New York Post citing the Journal of Consumer Research**.  

 Many former Californians are moving to states like Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Nevada, seeking more affordable lifestyles.  

In essence, while California sees many arrivals, the sheer volume of people leaving for more affordable regions makes it the state with the biggest net outflow, a trend confirmed by multiple data sources in late 2025 and early 2026, say NBC Bay Area reports, The Desert Sun, and AOL articles**. 

Lupine Beans ..

Lupine beans, also known as lupini beans, are white, round legumes popular in Mediterranean and Latin American cuisines, renowned for being high in protein and fiber while low in carbohydrates. They have a slightly nutty, briny flavor and a firm texture. 
 Lupine beans are considered a "superfood" due to their impressive nutritional profile. 
They are an excellent source of plant-based protein (around 40% protein when dried), containing all nine essential amino acids.

High in dietary fiber (around 37% fiber when dried), they aid digestion, support gut health by acting as a prebiotic, and promote a feeling of fullness, which can help with weight management.

With a low glycemic index, they are suitable for those managing blood sugar levels, including people with diabetes or following a keto diet.

They are packed with essential vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, and phosphorus, which support heart health, bone health, and the immune system.

The fiber and protein in lupine beans help lower "bad" (LDL) cholesterol and the amino acid arginine helps improve blood flow and blood pressure. 

The most common way to enjoy them is as a salty, satisfying snack. Simply bite the tip of the outer skin and squeeze the inner bean into your mouth, discarding the skin. They can be seasoned with salt, lemon juice, and spices like cumin.

Weaver" Supremacy..

 

In an August 2019 post on X, then known as Twitter, Cea Weaver wrote “Private property including and kind of ESPECIALLY homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy masquerading as ‘wealth building’ public policy,” 

Weaver wrote. A screenshot of the post was shared by the conservative account Libs of Tiktok.

On his first day in office, Mamdani appointed Weaver as director of the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants. Weaver previously served as the executive director of Housing Justice for All and the New York State Tenant Bloc, according to a statement from the mayor’s office.

Welcome to the new trial.   Just a thought.

Bock..

 

A federal judge has finally pulled the plug on the lavish lifestyle of the woman prosecutors say sat at the center of the massive Minnesota fraud scandal that drained a staggering quarter-billion dollars from a program meant to feed hungry children. 

Aimee Bock, the 44-year-old ringleader behind the Feeding Our Future non-profit, She was found guilty on federal charges of bribery, wire fraud, and conspiracy in relation to the largest COVID-19 fraud scandal in America.

The ringleader of the Minnesota fraud scheme who once wrapped herself in the language of compassion and community service, has now been ordered to surrender her Porsche, diamond jewelry, designer handbags, electronics and millions of dollars tied to the fraud. The ruling marks a dramatic reversal for someone Aimee Bock, who allegedly turned pandemic relief into a personal ATM.

The Minnesota fraud case investigators say at least $250 million was siphoned off by Aimee Bock through a network of nonprofits and shell organizations that flourished during a period when oversight was loosened and urgency trumped verification. Officials warn the final price tag could climb even higher as financial records continue to be untangled.

The Bock.... Stopped here.

Warren..

On Monday, Elizabeth Warren posted on X, saying, "The economy is rigged against hardworking Americans. We have to fix it. 

Democrats need to be clear on the kinds of investments that we want to make, how we'll build them, and really fight for them. That's what the American people want and deserve."

The Massachusetts senator urged her party to pair campaign promises with detailed implementation plans and the "fight" to push them through, echoing a message she has delivered for months as she slams what she calls a two-track recovery that favors the wealthy.

Comment:

The Democrats spent their time on illegal border crossings, deportation, ICE and the likes 

Then, became the Epstein files of the forbidden acts by someone who is convicted and killed himself. Yet vengeance is running ramped to figure out if some politicians are associated with a convicted person, wasting the time and diverting the attention from the good economics that has been reported 

Then they come with to the good economics but is not reaching the hard-working people and oncourse the illegals.

Comment:

This is an admission that the current economy improved after many years.   Just a thought.

Socializing..

 

Socializing with others is strongly linked to reducing the risk of Alzheimer's and dementia, as it builds cognitive reserve, helping the brain resist decline by promoting healthy behaviors, reducing stress, and improving overall brain function, with studies showing more socially active individuals develop dementia years later or face lower risks. 

Social isolation is a significant risk factor, making strong social networks, community involvement, and regular engagement crucial for brain health. 

 Social interaction, education, and engaging activities build up the brain's ability to cope with damage, delaying cognitive decline.

• Reduces Stress & Inflammation: Social connections can lower stress hormones and inflammation, which negatively impact brain health.
• Promotes Healthy Habits: Being social often encourages physical activity (like walking groups) and provides purpose, both beneficial for the brain.
