The simple question is, do you want to recover and live, or believe the lies and possibly die? The Republican candidate for president, Donald Trump, as we have seen time and time again, is lying again. This time about hurricane relief. He is saying there has been a bad response by the Biden administration. He… Continue reading A Very Simple Question for Hurricane Survivors

Infiltration at the Highest Levels
We can’t start this week without at least a little mention about the debate this past week between the presidential candidates, Mr. Trump and Vice President Harris. To put it mildly, it was a shellacking by Harris. Trump looked mad, arrogant, and old on that stage. The words spewing from his mouth were the same… Continue reading Infiltration at the Highest Levels
Should He or Shouldn’t He?
All week this question has been running through my mind, “Should he or shouldn’t he?” The question has plagued me as I thought about Biden, my letter/post of last week, and the past couple of days of Biden campaigning. It was even a bit of the conversation at a Democratic Party meeting I attended this… Continue reading Should He or Shouldn’t He?
An Open Letter to Dr. Jill Biden
Dear Dr. Biden, The American people need help that only you can provide. We need to ask you to be self-aware enough to help your husband, President Biden to become both self-aware and humble as we move through the 2024 election cycle. In order to save democracy, we need your husband to step aside and… Continue reading An Open Letter to Dr. Jill Biden
He’s Going to Get Off
United we stand, divided we fall. I don’t think I’ve ever felt like I want to be so wrong about anything than I am about the New York campaign finance fraud case involving Trump. It feels like 2016 all over again when I knew he was going to win over Clinton. After listening to the… Continue reading He’s Going to Get Off
Priorities of Spending
This week while dodging an ever increasing amount of, and rapidly expanding, potholes, I began wondering about taxes, use of state revenue, and voting. Why, after several weeks, were these potholes still not filled? The first line of thinking was looking around the neighborhoods in which I drive to work. Several are working class, predominantly… Continue reading Priorities of Spending
Biden: Still Up to the Task?
I’ve been perfectly upfront that I will be voting for Biden and any Democrat on my ballot. He may not be a 10 when it comes to being president, but he is definitely a 10 when compared to the alternative. Biden still has a pretty high belief in democracy and personal freedoms. In 2020, Biden… Continue reading Biden: Still Up to the Task?
How Do We Resist
Across the country, seemingly almost every day, there is a news story or reporting on disruptions at school board, election board, county supervisor, and other meetings. A small group of very vocal people, always inferring they represent a sizable chunk of constituents, spread lies, disinformation, and often threats, to those who oppose their viewpoints. Open… Continue reading How Do We Resist
President Biden, Time for Garland to Go
If you are like me, I had an emotional reaction to the nomination of Merrick Garland as the U.S. Attorney General. It felt a little like retribution for the slight given to him by Mitch McConnell when Obama nominated Garland as a Supreme Court justice. So many of us thought with Garland, the insurrectionists and… Continue reading President Biden, Time for Garland to Go
Kitchen Table Issues
On Thursday we heard an excellent and strong State of the Union address by President Biden. He hit a lot of salient points about the Republic, democracy, domestic and foreign policy, and challenges ahead. Surprisingly he even directly took the Supreme Court to task on decisions they’ve made, specifically the repeal of Roe v Wade.… Continue reading Kitchen Table Issues
