politics
Politics does not dictate our collective cultural mindset as much as it simply reflects it; We've got to look in the mirror sometimes, and we've got one.
500,000 Will Die
My uncle is one of those folks who constantly gets on my nerves. For example, I could call him at this moment, telling him about a crack in my ceiling. He (My Uncle) would not concern himself with the actual crack, but would focus on everything but what I consider is the problem. He would look at the ceiling fan on my wall, the vents on same. His focus, differing from my one demential constructional mind would argue. What if the fan is too heavy? Or the vents are compromised? If these potential challenges are left unidentified, it could cause the work of fixing the simple crack pointless. That thought spoke to me, when listening to the commentary of Presidents BUSH, CLINTON, and OBAMA. Three presidents, two of the same party, yet each unique in their skills and approach, attacked the overall struggles, leading to President Biden. This will in hope make certain, we don’t just fix the cracks, rather what is causing them.

“Equal Access to Our Democracy”
My friends, If the past four years has taught us anything about this our republic, we’ve discovered even though we are the country of Ronald Reagan, a shining city, sitting as a beacon on a hill, this our great democracy does not come without its challenges. I believe our challenges tho many, and complex in scope, all share a common theme. The people perish, because of a lack of understanding.

Goodbye, Good Riddance
Dear Donald, You almost pulled it off: subverting American democracy and the destruction of its institutions. But for a little luck, another fateful term was was in reach of your stubby little digits and with it the certain demise of the American republic.

For More Ears
Dear Donald J. Trump, Have you had enough yet? Are you as surprised as I am that it’s reached this point? What was your plan? What were you prepared to do? That’s the real question here isn’t it. What are you prepared to do? What are any of us prepared to do?

Foxtrot Oscar Donald
There isn't a person in western civilisation over the age of 25 who doesn't know a Dumb Blonde joke. Granted not all blondes are stupid but there are at least two; Boris Johnson and Donald Trump, more so the latter of the two. At least the former has the ability to speak several languages.

The New World- Again
The incredulous descent on the escalator was actually a moment ripe with possibility and potential. It seemed to be a mild inside joke, some thing that was surely somewhat predictable and nevertheless surprising in its reality. It seemed flashy and unthreatening and doomed before fruition, and belief in all that resulted in incorrect summation.

America Is On Mute
America has long celebrated being synonymous with the word Freedom. Freedom has given the American people a bold and sometimes arrogant swagger. Freedom is loud. America is the global television that other countries dial into to watch intently as our compelling story unfolds.
