Thank you.
I couldn't figure out why I wasn't discerning a relevance.

“The California Dream is Dying.”
Gavin Newsom invites world's homeless to California
https://news.yahoo.com/gavin-newsom-inv ... 00209.html
California Gov. Gavin Newsom pledged to house and feed the world’s homeless population this week during a whirlwind “Comeback California” tour that is designed to stave off a September recall by angry voters.
The Golden State is already cracking under the weight of the nation’s largest homeless population and one of the worst economic climates post-COVID-19. With millions of middle-class residents and business owners fleeing to red states, those left behind have seen a burgeoning lower class emerge.
Gasoline is pushing $5 a gallon, 18 million homeless pack into all the blue cities, and dilapidated freeways are strewn with trash.
Even the Atlantic outlined the hostile economic environment in a lengthy article titled “The California Dream is Dying.”
It’s against this backdrop that Newsom held a press conference Monday pledging $12 billion to combat homelessness on top of billions that have already been spent. People will be taken care of, and anyone who wants to avail themselves to the California dream is welcome, he said in response to a reporter who asked whether he expected the nation’s homeless to descend upon California with this new expenditure.
“It’s about getting people off the streets, out of incidents of crisis, and meeting people where they are and to the extent that people want to come here for new beginnings and all income levels, that’s part of the California dream,” Newsom said. “We have a responsibility to accommodate and enliven and inspire, and California’s dream is still alive and well.”

Fleas onto rats and everywhere, but too long ago to remember.

Re: In the News
Armadillo's are also carriers. If caught quickly and diagnosed/treated properly it's very treatable. It's also so rare that it isn't often identified as quickly as it should be.

Yup. As long as bears are not carriers, Murph has nothing to worry about.

Re: In the News
ABC TV is all out promoting the Democrat party. the very partisan so called investigation of the capital guys milling around their showing the capital police statements. It sure looks like the Democrat party wrote what they are to say or at least coached them.

The funny thing about bias is that those most guilty of it think it's something only the other side exhibits. I'm far from fond of the liberal media, but you have to be biased to the point of brain-dead to think Fox is presenting balanced coverage.

Even funnier is how conservatives allegedly are always watching Fox News. I haven’t watched Fox since the election. I mainly look at OAN, Newsmax or YouTube when I’m watching the news. I’ll look at CNN and MSLSD for a laugh and just to confirm what I already know about their incestuous love affair with the Democrats.

Plague occurs naturally in the western United States, particularly Arizona,
California, Colorado, and New Mexico. The plague bacterium (Yersinia
pestis) is transmitted by fleas and cycles naturally among wild rodents.
Plague can also infect humans and their pets.
How do people get plague?
• Bites of infected fleas
• Touching or skinning infected animals (such as prairie dogs, squirrels,
rats, and rabbits)
• Inhaling droplets from the cough of an infected person or animal
(especially sick cats
