Many states, 21 in fact, issued taxpayers special refunds or rebates under the umbrella of inflation assistance during 2022. Normally, the receipt of a state tax refund is considered taxable income if the taxpayer itemized in the previous year.

Yesterday I had the special privilege of spending a couple of hours with the man known as the agrarian patriarch of Israel, Avri Ron. He’s also the largest organic certified farmer in Israel and perhaps the Middle East. I felt like I was talking with Abraham; he’s in his 60s with a deep base voice, flowing beard, and lifetime on the cutting edge re-establishment of Israel in its homeland.

Yesterday the Israeli government sent in bulldozers to destroy a 20-acre vineyard near where I’m staying in Israel. You might wonder why. Fair question. Despite the Holocaust and years of wandering without a homeland, Israelis still bear the brunt of a world fundamentally anti-Israel. The government here walks a tightrope every day between trying to survive as a country, protect the Jews who live here, and placate the world.

Yesterday I met with two farmers and tonight I’ll be speaking in the Jordan Valley. I don’t have time to express all the things I’m learning, but I’ll hit the high points. The first one is the misuse of the term “West Bank.
