“There’s (sic) no more cuts to make”

– Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi
We guess that when Ms. Pelosi said this she didn’t know that the U.S. Agency for International Development is blowing $3 Million to help folks in Tonga, Vanuatu and other Pacific Islanders adapt to climate change.
In awarding these dollars that you so generously contributed, “Special consideration will be given to proposals that benefit women.”
Gosh, we didn’t know that women had a tougher time adapting to climate change than men – and we are genuinely sad to learn it.
