Wow! Are they in season in Colombia? Ours don't come into season until like, June, when the rains return.
Here it's water apple and avocado season, with mangoes soon to follow!

Thank you! It's already *so* much more covered than I thought it would be, considering the oldest plants (1/2 of them) have only been in for 9 months or so!
I can't wait until they all finally bloom! Check out what my friend's turquoise vine looks like!

I'm down in Costa Rica and would love to be added to a feed for Central America!

Meanwhile, the current budget proposal from the Rs will ALSO cut food aid for ~40 million Americans.
Who needs to eat?

It was brought up in the oval office yesterday. Musk had talked about stopping $50M in condoms going to Gaza...but it was Gaza, Mozambique...for HIV prevention.

Of American bank accounts, yes. Also, remember the rich only tend to get in trouble when they go after the rich. Like Bernie Madoff learned the hard way.

Then maybe take a step back from putting your own ignorant (yes, they are ignorant) opinions about American politics. You literally rejected verifiable primary source information backing up my more informed position re Hillary not being a good candidate.

Again, shows your ignorance.
Have you looked into the voters who voted for both Trump and AOC this last election?
Did you do any canvassing in 2016? I sure did. In both Iowa *and* Missouri.

What are you talking about?
The Dems *tried* to get data on Trump, and couldn't get verifiable info. Remember the pee tapes?
Do you not know political history or political strategy? It would make sense if you were employed by the DNC then at least!

So no, you didn't read it. The primary source.
So instead, let's flip this around. Why do *you* think that Hillary Clinton was a fantastic presidential candidate?
comment in response to
post
Did you see the PRIMARY SOURCE validating the existence of this strategy?
Did you? Did you look on your own for information about this?
As I said, this FACT was widely known for those following politics. The fact that you didn't, & think it's a conspiracy, is very telling.

Trump certainly seized on it, as a part of HIS political strategy, to discredit her, for sure.
That doesn't mean the contents released were false. They didn't come from Trump.
Get your head out of the sand, or at least get it out of the field of politics if you can't understand this.

Read. The. Articles.
Nothing to do with 'hate'. It was a part of a political strategy. That backfired.
Pied. Piper. Strategy.
Primary sources, too. Not just conjecture. It's in black and white.
comment in response to
post
If you had *actually* clicked on it to read what was said, you would see the EXACT EMAIL and primary source regarding this strategy.
Donald Trump
Ben Carson
Ted Cruz
^Those were the candidates the Clinton campaign tried to elevate in the GOP Primary. Widely known, too boo.

Dude, you asked how they weren't good candidates. I was only responding about Hillary. It's not on me that you have never heard of the publication Salon.
Go. Look. Up. Information. Yourself.
Pied Piper Strategy + Hillary Clinto. The only conspiracy going on was their own. 🤷♀️

I knew Ben Carson was one of the others, but couldn't remember anyone else offhand. That was Ted Cruz, per the article and direct source.

Wrongo there bud. Hillary absolutely promoted Trump. It was also her husband who helped convince him to run in the first place. I even gave you the name of her campaigns strategy for it, so you could look it up. Since you didn't:

They likely don't care, as long as their money is safe.

Well Hillary did less campaigning for herself in the lead up to that election than Bernie did for her. Her campaign also promoted Trump in the primary process (+ a few others) in their Pied Piper scheme, seeing him as more beatable than others.

But many Americans *do* like the things I referenced, so how about understanding that telling people to just replace it all, in *February* nonetheless, is a reasonable solution to these stupid tariffs?

I hope you took the opportunity to educate him. 😊

You know, just go get your locally grown coffee, avocados, pineapples, and bananas in February from your local farmers market! 🤣
*My* farmer's market has those things. Because I live in Costa Rica.
Good luck buying vehicles and steel at your farmer's market, too!

I still have to watch El Camino, but I think I'm going to wait to see if my husband wants to watch BB and Better Call Saul with me first. He hasn't seen any of them.
