    Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, Democratic legislative members have no more F’s to give and are on the offensive.

    Then, on the rest of the menu, an Oregon house cat died after eating pet food that tested positive for bird flu, prompting a recall of raw frozen pet food that was sold nationwide; a circuit judge struck down part of the Missouri law restricting access to court records; and, a symbol of the power and strength of the United States for more than 240 years, President Biden signed a bill officially making the bald eagle the national bird of America.

    After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where Russian sabotage is suspected in the severing of a power cable linking Finland and Estonia under the Baltic Sea; and, Russia’s air defense system is suspected in the downing of an Azerbaijani jetliner in Kazakhstan, killing thirty-eight, with twenty-nine survivors.

    Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, The New York Firefighters Union found out what happens when you endorse a 9/11 Truther arsonist.

    Then, on the rest of the menu, Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen was hospitalized after being thrown from a horse; already a longtime opponent of the deal, Biden will decide on the US Steel acquisition by Nippon Steel after an influential panel failed to reach a consensus on the national security risks; and, New Jersey gambling regulators handed out fines to two sportsbooks and a tech company for sports betting violations.

    After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where cleanup continued in the Kerch Strait near Russian-occupied Crimea, a week after at least 3,700 tons of low-grade fuel oil spilled out of two storm-stricken Russian tankers; and, Romanian lawmakers voted narrowly in favor of a new pro-European coalition government led by incumbent Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu.

    “As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.” -- Ernest Hemingway "A Moveable Feast"
