I heard on the news that in the past year 2 million immigrants have entered our country. They have nowhere to go, no food, no clothes, no homes. I understand they come here in hopes of a better life but I feel immigration is out of control. This has been a problem for over 20 […]
We, meaning all Americans, are having a serious crisis. I feel like I am living in two different societies. One is the politically usual, meaning operating as we always have, under one (hopefully) unifying President and lawmakers, again hopefully working for our concerns. This means compromise by both parties to try and get things done. […]
I have been watching the hearings. Today is the fourth televised one. Each time there are new facts and new footage coming out about that day. I also continue to read the papers, (Richmond Times Dispatch, USA Today, Wall Street Journal and the NY Times). I watch the news. I don’t watch cable news channels, […]
5/24/2022 – Uvalde, Texas – Robb Elementary School, 19 students and two teachers gunned down, plus the grandmother of 18 year old gunman. The gunman was shot dead by a border control agent. Reporters are asking how people feel. Sad, yes, frustration yes, angry yes. Besides feeling deep sadness for the victims, their families, and […]
I have been watching the exodus of people from Ukraine. As with any fleeing their homeland because of war or persecution, my heart goes out to them. As I understand it, we, meaning America, (USA) have committed to providing asylum to 100,000 Ukrainians, as we should. This is where my mind starts to wonder. South […]
I’ve mentioned before how afraid I am for the state of unrest here in the USA. Now we have “Putin’s War.” The images coming from Ukraine are horrible. Families being separated, homes and schools being bombed. It is encouraging to see the Ukrainian people fighting for their freedom, their president right there with his people. […]
Right now I am worried about everything that is happening politically throughout the world. Russia has been amassing troops around the border of Ukraine. Putin seems to be playing a guessing game, which leads the rest of the world wondering if he will invade Ukraine, or as he says, that he doesn’t plan on invading. […]
Today is the one year anniversary of the mob of Trump supporters insurrection at the capital. President Biden made a speech this morning for the first time blaming the former president, (would not mention his name). I thought it was a good speech. I don’t know what else to say, yet I have a lot […]
The election is over, (thank God, the commercials and phone calls were driving me crazy!) My candidate did not win, although it was very close. I’m not that upset because I’ve decided to have a “wait and see” attitude. First and foremost there is nothing I can do about it! Anyway, for now my mind […]
Here we go again. I understand this election in particular, is very important for both parties. It could keep Democrats in power in Virginia, and it could also mean a chance for the Republicans to reclaim the state because right now President Biden’s popularity is waning. This is the information I get from watching CBS, […]
