About Me

As of noon eastern time yesterday, Wednesday, Jan 20, 2021, we have turned a corner politically.   We now have a President, Biden, who is dedicated to the pursuit of a truly multi-cultural secure society in the united Steas. He has begun the process of picking people that care about the department they are in charge of, unlike the antics of the last 4 years where in most, if not all cases, the enemies of the department (especially the EPA) were put in charge of said department.

Since entering the White House something like 24 hours ago, he has already done some things to indicate his willingness to listen to ALL the people of the United States rather than just the White Nationalist (read that as racist bigots) and Isolationists that the previous administration seemed to tied to so much emotionally, or at least via rhetoric.

I am definitely enjoying the nation getting back on its correct direction going forward.

But because there are those who like to cause trouble, I intend to keep the policy listed right below this and the organizations are still doing things I believe it so that stays as well.

Let me tell you folks that continue to support the orange man who we finally got out of office in Jan of 2021, what we think of you,  Just so you know.

And to clarify for those of you still hanging on to the MAGA RHETORIC, REMEMBER:

Wake up before he and his minions on the right destroy the entire country, and you lose your rights just like the rest of us.  Fox's Tucker Carlson has indicated that "the republicans will go full scale Facist"....really many of them already have as witnessed by the worship of the trump crook that continues to this day, even AFTER he incited an attempt to overthrow the duly elected government of the United States.  That was treason and now, having thus far gotten away with it, they are trying to do it again...at least threatening.

****friends and the wall are private for the friends security.
