In general, federal evidentiary rules prohibit the admission of a defendant’s “prior bad acts” to show their propensity to commit the crime or conduct at issue. But there are exceptions, including where the evidence tends to show a pattern or modus operandi. 4/
Due to my father’s age & circumstances, he receives Optage Meals, (like Meals on Wheels) when requested. A few meals a week allow me to not have to prepare scratch & $pecific meals that align with his dietary requirements. I also get a break as a caregiver - time and money. This program is part of Dad’s palliative care plan.
Today he received a letter stating that effective immediately those meals will cease as a direct result of the Trump Administration’s plans to not re-authorize funding for the Title III programs that fall under the Older Americans Act ("OAA")
2.4 million people across the country will no longer receive meals/dietary assistance from programs such as Meals on Wheels, and similar. The letter refers those impacted to their local food shelf.
Title III of the OAA also provides low cost or free transportation, caregiver support, personal care & chores via PCA, elder abuse prevention services, community engagement and long-term care ombudsman services. About 11M people avail themselves of Title III services per year. OAA programs have been a lifeline for seniors. While Dad will survive, many may not.
We both teared up thinking of how the most vulnerable people in our country are going to go hungry thanks to Trump. In addition, the people who have jobs because of this Act will lose them.

I love watching Tiny's plans backfire! Tried to silence me (again) and throttle my posts but instead you guys helped me bounce back by making some noise after seeing the Rachel Maddow segment. Ticket sales are up again, booked another venue and the attention has revived my GoFundMe. Bet someone is bigly mad! 😂
Leon Munsk apparently doesn’t want people to see that Trump supporters at Donald Trump’s Coachella rally were stranded after the event.
You know what that means!
Pass it on!
By the way, if y'all aren't following @MuellerSheWrote, you're really missing out. The owner of this site is trying to suppress her content, and it ain't working.
A new report from Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse finds fresh evidence the Trump White House tightly controlled the FBI investigation into the sexual assault claims against Brett Kavanaugh.
The Trump White House never authorized the agency to independently probe the assault allegations. https://t.co/TkBAX1FZGr
Good must overcome evil
Truth must overcome lies
Love must overcome hate
Our greatest strength is our shared common humanity- nothing can stop us when we decide to come together and care for each other!
Our friends Elon and X have been throttling our posts the past 48 hours. 👎
Retweet this if you’re seeing it and want Kamala Harris to be the next President. 👍🙏
There are no words to fully capture what Kamala Harris’ candidacy means to women and girls. But witnessing their reactions makes it clear—this is bigger than us.
It’s not just about winning.
It’s about lifting each other up.
It’s about hope, history, and an inclusive future for all of us.
