Thank you, Chef Andres….

Well…with the trump administration’s racist abandonment of the people of Puerto Rico…leaving over 80% of them without electricity and almost 50% of them without food or water….there have been private citizens who have stepped in to try to keep people alive that I want to recognize since they have been doing this with little fanfare…just hard work and caring. One of these private citizens is Chef Jose Andres who took it upon himself to do something, to provide food for the people who have none….and his organization has opened over a dozen kitchens in Puerto Rico and have provided over a million meals in the past three weeks…more than twice what the federal government or the Red Cross has done….and this is not the first time he has thrown his entire being and all of his connections  into relief efforts…he did the same thing for Houston after hurricane Harvey and stayed there until people could survive on their own…and he did it again for the people of Mexico after the huge earthquake there. One of the things I found inspiring was when Chef Andres said that he will stay until he is no longer needed….until things are recovered enough so people don’t need him anymore…contrast that to the idiot trumps response that relief efforts can’t be open ended and they cost too much….so, thank you Chef Andres…you are a true human being….
