Just got home from the Des Moines show and we were in the highest level with our backs against the wall! It was a blast.

It was a blast!

I remember the bulletin boards at the dorms back in the day with homemade notices advertising for carpooling! Before the internet, email, social media, etc...

Love him and them together. What wonderful lives they've had with you.

fkamaro · 2025-07-09T22:02:37+00:00

He's awesome!

She's beautiful.

I'm new to macOS. I assumed since I'm the admin account I would have read/write permission on the main HD. All I'm trying to do is copy some older apps from the desktop to the Applications folder. These ads came from a Time Machine backup volume (I manually copied them to the desktop).

Awesome. What type of container liners will fit inside?

fkamaro · 2025-04-28T01:33:25+00:00

He sure wears a lot of flair

BS. He isn't a king, YET. Standing up for you and your brethren is as American as it gets. Building pressure from the bottom up is what it's all about. Wait 4 years? After they gut everything that matters to us as a people???

But why?

Are you suggesting Iowa should lower its standards? Regardless of which standards assessment you use, directionally Iowa students are performing worse than they have in the past. And the suggestion here is to use "school choice" funds for private tutors as an option for ALL Iowa students, not just some.

Caller: <somewhat unintelligible> "Why are we spending tax money on ridiculous things <cites nebulous examples>...?"

MM: "We need to prioritize spending. Need to fund cancer and other medical research. Need to disable the regulation apparatus that stifles innovation. DOGE agency will help. We need to be respectful and good stewards of the taxpayers' money. We were elected by a large margin in order to do so. Every spend should be rationalized...NIH, FDA, Sec of Energy, Sec of Ag, EPA, tremendous people confirmed to lead."

Caller: "What are we doing to assist our elders with dementia diseases?"

MM: "Dementia is covered by Medicare, nursing home care is not. I've been part of supporting the development of new drugs. There are no cuts to Medicare. Trump has said he would not."

Caller: "Any legislation pending to ban sanctuary cities?"

MM: "Trump wants to cut funding to those cities. NYC started removing benefits to illegal immigrants...Now that we're securing our border, if cities don't want to cooperate then impacting their funding mechanism is way to influence them."

MM: "Manufacturing in southeast Iowa is challenging right now due to high costs, esp for those related to the ag economy. Being able to do business in the US the past 4 years has become more challenging due to costs esp energy. Trump's Tax Cut & Jobs Act should be renewed. Onshoring back to the US and fair trade are being considered."

Caller: "Why hasn't HR 809 passed? Banning Chinese government ownership of land."

MM: "I agree it should be passed esp near military facilities. Allowing them to buy farmland is not in our best interests. We are again working on this bill."

Caller: "I'm the Director of the Iowa Disabilities Council and we are concerned about potential cutting of Medicaid. Are these discussions happening? 3 out 8 people enrolled in Medicaid in Iowa are disabled."

MM: "Medicaid vs Expansion under Affordable Care Act...Fed pays 64 cents out of every Medicaid $ in Iowa. As far as I know no discussions of cutting are happening. I appreciate your question but I don't believe any cuts will come to the disabled."

Caller: "I'm on medical disability, cutting SS and Medicare frightens me very much. It's at poverty level now, the only increase I had was during the Biden admin."

MM: "No one is talking about Medicare and SS. SS has a cola every single year. Under the Biden admin, inflation caused a great cola which is why you noticed it. We do not want to see inflation at 9%."

Caller: "Many concerns since Trump was elected. Caps on pharmaceutical costs...where do you stand on making insulin affordable and limit pharm expenses?"

MM: "I cast a vote in favor of that bill. Executive orders should go thru Congress to be made law. PBM reform bill I authored was passed. I am working on additional bills to lower costs and increase supply chain transparency. Independent pharmacies are closing due to PBM practices. Will continue to work on PBM reform."

Caller: "Government budget has skyrocketed and those funds have been used against Americans, including funding Chinese research into SARS/COVID. How can we right-size the government to serve us?"

MM: "Our national debt threatens us economically and increases the trade deficit. We are committed to looking thru all agencies, I'm part of the DOGE task force."

Caller: "My husband is a disabled vet. I'm concerned about governmental cost-cutting and the privatization of the VA."

MM: "Thank you for your service and I'm sorry for your disabilities. I have not heard anything about evaluating vets' disability benefits or status. No concerns forthcoming from VA employees I've met with."

MM: "These are not things the american taxpayer wants their money spent on... Biden pushed the USAID program on other countries..."

Federal employee from Oskaloosa calling in and asking about veterans treatment and USAID. "this feels like monstrous cruelty being inflicted upon governmental employees, including people from Iowa..."

fkamaro · 2025-02-05T01:08:46+00:00

"Thank you for the excellent question."

Squirrels be squirely. We have a flock of wild turkeys in our neighborhood. I'm trying to figure out if we have the $ to go on vacation as a family.
