♫ I Heard It Through The Grapevine ♫ (Redux)

Not quite two years (December 2022) since I last played this one, but I’m in the mood for some Motown tonight and this is the one that came to mind …

♫ I Heard It Through The Grapevine ♫ (Redux)

दिल की बातें / Heart’s Words

दिल की बातें मनभावन लगती हैं, लेकिन,  उनका बहक जाना हमेशा सबको नहीं भाता…  जरूरी है उस पर लगाम लगाना कभी कभी,  उसका हर हठ खुशी और संतुष्टि नहीं लाता……

Rayner dismisses US VP candidate’s ‘Islamist UK’ claim

JD Vance, the Ohio senator chosen as Mr Trump’s vice presidential candidate on Monday night, made the comments while at the National Conservatism conference in Washington DC last week.

The 39-year-old said he was “beating up” on the UK, and had discussed with a friend “what is the first truly Islamist country to get a nuclear weapon”, then joked “maybe it’s Iran, maybe Pakistan kind of counts, and then we sort of decided maybe it’s actually the UK since Labour just took over”.

The suggestion that Islamists are gaining in power in some European countries with Muslim minorities is common in some right-wing US political circles.

Angela Rayner told ITV that Mr Vance had said “quite a lot of fruity things in the past” but said does not “recognise” his characterisation of the UK.

FACT SHEET: President Biden Announces Major New Actions to Lower Housing Costs by Limiting Rent Increases and Building More Homes | The White House

President Biden calls on corporate landlords to cap rent increases at 5% and takes action to make more public land available for housing

President Biden is taking action to make renting more affordable for millions of Americans. Today, President Biden is announcing new actions to lower housing costs, including:

  • Calling on Congress to pass legislation giving corporate landlords a choice to either cap rent increases on existing units at 5% or risk losing current valuable federal tax breaks;
  • Repurposing public land sustainably to enable as many as 15,000 additional affordable housing units to be built in Nevada; and
  • Rehabilitating distressed housing, building more affordable housing, and revitalizing neighborhoods, including in Las Vegas, Nevada…

Statement from President Joe Biden on New Actions to Lower Housing Costs | The White House

Families deserve housing that’s affordable—it’s part of the American Dream. Rent is too high and buying a home is out of reach for too many working families and young Americans, after decades of failure to build enough homes. I’m determined to turn that around.

Today, I’m sending a clear message to corporate landlords: If you raise rents more than 5% on existing units, you should lose valuable tax breaks. My Administration is also taking action to cut red tape and repurpose public land to build more affordable homes—including thousands of new homes in Nevada—and announcing new grants to build thousands of homes from Las Vegas to Syracuse. And I’m reiterating my call for Congress to pass my plan to build 2 million new homes—to lower housing costs for good, we need to build, build, build.

While the prior administration gave special tax breaks to corporate landlords, I’m working to lower housing costs for families. Republicans in Congress should join Democrats to pass my plan to lower housing costs for Americans who need relief now.

Se durassimo in eterno
Tutto cambierebbe
Dato che siamo mortali
Molto rimane come prima.

Dauerten wir unendlich
So wandelte sich alles
Da wir aber endlich sind
Bleibt vieles beim alten.

Bertolt Brecht, nato Eugen Berthold Friedrich Brecht (1898 -1956), è stato un drammaturgo, poeta e regista teatrale tedesco, tra i più influenti del Novecento.
