@TheTNHoller@GovRonDeSantis@RepJeffries That is not racist. actually it is a pretty accurate impression—Jeffries should embrace who he is! now, if Jeffries made fun of DeSantis—just like this (and there is plenty to work with there) …would that be “racist”?

I wanted to take a moment to provide the Life All-Stars Disadvantaged Youth Financial Literacy Highlights from 2025:
- We met our goal of doubling our number of PreK-5th Grade registered participants in 2025! We signed-up 16 new participants and now have a total of 22! Looking forward to doubling again in 2026!
- Funded and distributed 63 $20-bills to new attendees ($1,260)
- “Credited” attendees $40 each time they returned without spending the $20 Bill (yes, we check the Serial #)😉!
- Purchased $6,388 in Vanguard VOO S&P 500 ETF shares and deposited them into a numbered account for each of our participants
- Fed, shared our program and educated over 85 different children from Title 1 Elementary schools across Fort Bend County
Financial Literacy Lessons:
1) Wants vs. Needs - 30 Attendees
2) What is Currency - 27 Attendees
3) Banking Your Bucks - 30 Attendees
4) Budgeting - 34 Attendees
5) Which Way to Pay - 28 Attendees
6) Saving, Investing & Inflation - 35 Attendees
We hosted 331 people (children and their parents/guardians) this year and helped them understand the basics of Financial Literacy, while having fun and eating over 1,600 Chick-Fil-A chicken nuggets, 213 Chick-Fil-A Chicken Strips and 1000’s of waters/drinks/snacks! 😋
We're very grateful for the support of our generous donors and community partners and looking forward to our six upcoming 2026 Youth Financial Literacy Events!
What is holding you up?
This is a gorgeous idea even for small pots and one colorful way to call the spring early!
This is what we call lasagna layers !
Dear Sir.. as a Florida Native.. I would like to say that going after Publix may be the single most antii-Florida anyone could do. Just like Beaches, gators and Sunshine, Publix defines who we are.
You write for a rag that daily seeks to belittle Florida and Floridians, and now you want to take shots at Publix? II am not sure what audience you think you are entertaining..
Publix employees more Floridians than any other company in the state. More people that were raised here got their first job from Publix. Department managers make more than some 4 year degrees make. Publix provides the jobs that pay the bills for hundreds of thousands of hard working families across the state. Publix was my first job, and it was my sons.
Publix buys Florida agriculture goods, vegetables, dairy. Publix produces their goods IN Florida, employing more people in second tier manufacturing to bring FLORIDA good to FLORIDA consumers. Farmers survive due to Publix.
After storms, Publix is there. A few years backs when Hurricane Michael hit as a Cat 5 in Panama City.. when the storm passed.. we have hundreds of electrical utility trucks moving down I-10 to help, and right behind them with a Highway Patrol escourt? It was Mother Fucking Publix! in a convoy of semi's ready to help theiir neighbors.. FLORIDIANS, and they didn't ask if you were a customer or not. Trader Joe's didn't show up, Amazon didn't show up.. the Orlando Sentinel didn't show up, except to take pictures they could try to make money off of. After a storm and Publix shows up.. it's like FLORIDA has shown up. Seeing that truck meant the state of Florida hadn't forgotten about you.
We need Publix a hell of a lot more than we will ever need you of the Orlando Sentinel. And if the state want's to give them a tax break due to the MASSIVE revenue they bring into the state and the people they employee? So freaking be it.
Attacking Publix? dude.. thats not a hill you want to die on, but die on it you will.
@Publix making FLORIDA a Pleasure.
