Another childless cat lady for Harris/Walz!

Trump on child care, verbatim:

“Well, I would do that and we’re sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Sen. Marco Rubio and my daughter Ivanka was so impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about that because the child care is, child care is you couldn’t, you know there’s something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to — but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us. But they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s going to take care — I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country. Because I have to stay with child care, I want to stay with child care but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth. But growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just told you about. We’re going to be taking in trillions of dollars, and as much as child care is talked about as being expensive, it’s relatively speaking not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’re going to be taking in. We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people, and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world. Let’s help other people. But we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first, it’s about ‘Make America Great Again,’ we have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation. So we’ll take care of it.”

Thank you for your past support of the Mystery Loves Democracy and Mystery Loves Georgia auctions! We are once again asking for your help.

The MLD coordinators – Lisa Brackmann, Tammy Kaehler and Kathy Hegarty Krevat – are not able to organize an auction this year. But in light of the relentless terrible news that threatens our democracy, we want to do something.

With your help, the two Mystery Loves auctions raised $93,161 for Fair Fight Action, a nonprofit that continues to work promoting fair elections around the country, encouraging voter participation in elections, and educating voters about elections and their voting rights. They're also bringing awareness to the public on election reform, advocating for election reform at all levels, and engaging in other voter education programs and communications. We are excited about what they're doing nationwide to make sure ALL voter voices are heard.

A core belief by authors and readers of crime fiction is that justice will be done. We believe in justice. Justice is allowing every eligible vote to be counted and that’s what Fair Fight Action fights for across the country.

Taking action is one thing that makes us feel hopeful about the future. We hope you can make a direct donation to Fair Fight Action through the following links:
