Springs blooming at Starbucks.

A new season calls for new discoveries,

like our iced Ube-Vinilla Machilate.

Smooth, creamy and nutty, balanced with notes of vanilla.

It's a treat for the ice too,

with vibrant lilac hues to brighten your spring mood.

Hot or iced, there are so many ways to love this stunning salve.

Uber Vanilla, pouring now at Starbucks.

Subject to availability while stocks last. I really wish they had shut it down.

This omnibus thing has passed this ludicrously big bill.

This is not the way the country is supposed to be run. I know that.

You know that. They know that. Maybe they don't care anymore. You saw it, right? 4,000 pages.

I think this is only a smidgin of it. A smidget. 1.7 trillion dollars. And inside, of course,

all kinds of crazy goodies. Yep, goodies. If you call these

goodies, I don't know, $65 million for the restoration of the Pacific salmon population.

Okay. I think there's something for, yeah, the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building, remind me not to go to

that. And a walking trail for Michelle Obama somewhere in Georgia.

But the problems are far deeper than that.

And the whole thing, quite frankly, is offensive to me and probably you as an American.

It's not supposed to be this way.

This is too big for our elected leaders to handle. But not for the swamp. Oh, not for the swamp.

Anyway, what a good old Abe Lincoln say, how America is supposed to be. Government of the people, by the people, for the people.
