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, […]
I have to say that I’m sure this was out there and I only just learned about it, so it is new to me and anyone else who has heard it for the first time. Anyway, On CBS Sunday Morning, Ted Koppel was doing a story on Mayberry, North Carolina.. A fictional small town from […]
I was in Long Island this year. Eerily it was the same type of day as in 2001, sunny, in the 70’s, with a beautiful blue sky. In the morning I watched some of the memorial. What was touching was how these survivors of family members who died that day, are still so affected and […]
