Grape Salsa - yum!

Enjoyed this sweet n spicy grape salsa at a luncheon at Sugar Clay Winery last week. Was surprised at how sweet, sour, spicy and refreshing was for a summer treat. Here is a recipe that is close to Sugar Clay's dip:

Any suggestions for improvements?

Biden in Cross Hairs of the Partnership for America's Healthcare Future

“Unfortunately, Vice President Biden’s proposal for a new government insurance system through a ‘public option’ would undermine the progress our nation has made and ultimately lead our nation down the path of a one-size-fits-all health care system run by Washington. From driving up premiums in the private market, to threatening our nation’s already at-risk hospitals, to diminishing Americans’ access to the quality care they need, research warns that such an approach could be disastrous for patients and consumers.

The American Medical Association, BlueCross BlueShield and the Federation of American Hospitals are behind this PAC that is constantly buying ads on YouTube against Obamacare and single payer healthcare.
They also don't like Biden's plan to repair Obamacare."

PS: This post was locked because I posted it in General Discussion instead of the Democratic Primaries Forum; so I am reposting this here. This issue is very important to me. I am a retired nurse with great interest in getting affordable health care coverage in this country.

Astronomers Find a Huge Atira Asteroid Very Close to the Sun



Seems it was hard to see because it is hidden behind the sun.

Why aren't we marching in the streets? TDPS



Furthermore, It's too hot and most of the marches I've attended have gotten poor media coverage and do little to change the current Fascist Republican regime. How and where can my time and effort be more effective?

Who is behind the Partnership for America's Healtcare Future??

I watch YouTube a lot and I am constantly getting an ad that says
"Politicians are pushing one size fits all health plans. Medicare for all, Medicare buy-in and a public option all mean the same thing: you would pay more and wait longer for worse care."
It then directs you to this website: https://americashealthcarefuture.org/

What are Democrats going to do to counter this constant and well backed propaganda. I also would like to know who is paying for it. I have given it thumbs down many times, but it still comes on. I really tees me off to have to sit through it so, to get rid of it , I immediatly hit the back arrow and the forward arrow and am given a different ad to watch before the awaited video. I would like to know if there is an organization I can donate to to counter this s*%t. Thanks, Sage
