Checked the new prices for the week on Kroger's website...the prices on ground beef and eggs remain the same.

The cost of a pound of ground beef now costs more than the minimum wage. Eggs are still expensive.

"Egg prices are predicted to increase 24.6 percent in 2025"--USDA

Some of the high quality content Zuckerberg’s platform is algorithmically shoveling into the brains of American consumers. This story is 100% made up, in case that wasn’t obvious.
The Harmonica Chronicles • Follow .•• X 1d • p Tears on Stage: Bob Dylan Pauses Mid-Song After Learning of Charlie Kirk's Passing It was meant to be just another night on tour — a full arena, the crowd hanging on every lyric — until Bob Dylan suddenly stopped mid-song. He stepped back from the mic, his eyes shining under the stage lights. The band went completely silent. "They just told me.." Dylan's voice trembled. "Charlie Kirk has passed." For a long, heavy moment, no one moved. Then Dylan whispered, "This one's for him," and began playing a raw, stripped-down version of Blowin' in the Wind. Fans were overcome with emotion as the song became a quiet prayer. What Dylan said after the final chord - his last words to the audience - left the world in stunned silence. F.u.ll s.t.o.ry be.lo.w

Thank God we finally have a president who will fly into a rage when he notices imperfections in the sidewalk.

“I started yelling…” Trump writes in his latest post.
Trump: I used, at the White House, the most beautiful marble and stone available anywhere. Surfaces are very important to me as a Builder. As everyone knows, I built many GREAT Buildings, and other things, over the years. At the White House, I am very proud of the beautiful stonework we did in the Rose Garden, in this case, using limestone plus. The Rose Garden is completed, and far more beautiful than anyone ever had in mind when it was conceived of, decades ago. Three days ago, while admiring the stonework, I happened to notice a huge gash in the limestone that extended more than 25 yards long. It was deep and nasty! I started yelling, "Who did this, and I want to find out now!" — And I didn't say this in a nice manner. I wondered, "Was it vandalism or, was it stupidity?" Lo and behold, because of the fact that we've installed the finest security equipment anywhere, they the finest security equipment anywhere, they brought back the stupid people, with their boss watching (in sunglasses!). It was a subcontractor that was installing heavy landscaping on a steel cart that was broken and tilting badly, with it rubbing hard against the soft, beautiful stone. I love and respect great workers and contractors, but something like this should never happen. Now, I'll replace the stone, charge the contractor, and never let that contractor work at the White House again - But, how great is the video equipment? We caught them, cold. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! 15° 15

California is getting safer.

Homicides down 20%
Robberies down 19%
All within this year.

And we're deploying CHP officers to more regions across the state to keep this momentum going.
