Not OK
I don’t hate Trump, but I hate what he was doing to the country. Some people think that he should not be impeached a second time. Well, I think he should. If he gets away with this inciting the violence that incurred on Jan. 6, others may think it’s OK to do the same in the future. Some say he didn’t incite, but listen to him. He invited for people to go to the Capitol. He spread the lie that the vote was stolen and he had won. The Democrats and Republicans should work together on this to make our democracy strong. It has nothing to do with vengeance. Or hate. We have to stand together as an nation to protect it from this ever happening again. So, we have to make an example and impeach the person who incited the violence. God bless America.
Promises not kept
On his way out of the White House, did now ex-President Trump either release his taxes or, even more importantly, pass his Affordable Care Act replacement? I recall his promise in 2016 that he would deliver “great health care at a fraction of the cost.”

No one is perfect
Thank you to the person who took the time to post her thoughts on Nancy Pelosi. She, indeed, wasted more time, energy and money with her worthless investigations of President Trump. He did have his faults, as does everyone else. No one is perfect, and that includes Nancy Pelosi. I say to her, “Let he who is without fault, cast the first stone.” The sooner she is gone, the better off this country will be.
What a country
Well, it’s already started. Just remember that your life will change. Just remember who you voted for as the change comes, and I don’t mean in a good way. Illegals, money being paid we don’t have, business taken advantage of and states getting bailouts, with Illinois on the top of the list. What a country.
Bad start
On the first day Joe Biden became president, he signed two bills which cost Americans jobs. First, he shut down the Keystone Pipeline. Second, he shut down the construction on the southern border wall. These two projects took away American jobs. Next, by stopping the border wall, this will allow more illegals to come into the country and take away jobs from Americans.
Come on, man
The Swamp laughed at the thought that outsider Donald Trump would win the 2016 election. And when he won, they spent his entire four-year term accusing him of various unproven hoaxes, even spending over $35 million on a failed attempt to impeach him and have him removed from office. The Swamp members have private jets, many are millionaires and some billionaires who live in mansions and have done nothing for the taxpayers in four years. All they want is power, control and money. Now we have a new president and in just two days, over 16,000 people have permanently lost their jobs, gas prices are rising and they want to reprogram us? Come on, man.
Come together
Let’s work together and unite our country again. The world is laughing at us. Let’s ensure that our leaders work on meeting the needs of our citizens, and let’s also make sure that they do not eradicate the Second Amendment. So the past is the past, and let’s work with our government for the betterment of our nation and truly make it “one nation under God.”
Just a thought
When the lottery Pick 3 and 4 were done with pingpong balls I would win often, but with the new system by computer sometimes it may be a couple months before one of my numbers comes up. I wonder if the computer is programmed to compare the numbers played and determines what numbers to pick to pay out the least amount of winners. Just a thought.
