I'd be surprised to taste one tastier than Popeyes or Chick-fil-A (struggle with their anti-gay stance but respect them for closing on Sundays , even though that costs them probably tens of millions ).

When a group of migrants arrived in NY, the discussion was if they could be housed on a boat.

What many don't understand is that these migrants come here to work. They usually have family back home that are dependent on the few dollars they can send .

They are hard-working people. They don't come here to become a public charge. Their kids need to attend local schools, but that is a win/win if these kids can have a better chance in life .

I don't know the specific names of the charities involved . I heard this morning they had buses waiting to take them to a church where they had warm food . Then they had buses to help them get to their final destination where the migrants have friends or family .

Thank God for these volunteers on Christmas day and one of the coldest days ever.

Friendship Place + Central Union Mission + World Central Kitchen are the ones I donate to monthly that help the homeless or less fortunate.

The director/CEO of Food for America once or twice stood in line for food during a difficult period in her life and was struck by the kindness and no judgement.
