This is a sad sign of the times - I received this message from my vet

5. My daughter and I took cat and dog food donations to a rescue on Friday.

The shutdown was not mentioned by the rescue but we were thinking that there are going to be a lot of animals in need as well as people. I asked a family MAGA who always attends church if his church was collecting food donations to help people get through this. He looked at me like I had three eyes and after a long pause he said "no". I said I would have bought some food for him to take but that's okay because I will take it to a weekly protest location that has an ongoing food drive. I guess his evangelical Baptist church isn't about feeding the poor.
