These are crazy political times. I would sure love for things to calm down.

We are not currently living in our America. Our elected representatives are in large part not representing any of our interests as the system has been corrupted the money of special interests. Our system of checks and balances has likewise been corrupted, with agencies meant to work for us suborned to the interests of a thug government.Â
Sleeping through the first 3/4 of the show is what got us here. We need to wake up now, change the channel, or better, re-write the story.

It sure feels as though we have been living in the Twilight Zone since the COVID came into play, and right on through to these past two years of Hell on earth. All we can do is vote and wait patiently for 2028.

As long as we tolerate open corruption we are doomed to fail. The health of the President, hell bent on enriching himself without checks and balances of the weak Republicans who only care about keeping their jobs, with his frontal dementia as it appears from the things he says this country will become an oligarchy because the wealthy have their foothold on the gas so to speak. Unless we collectively rise up together and maintain we are ALL created equal and deserve anything we work for we will become the peons the rich will do with us as they wish.Â
