No surprise here: Should it really come as a big surprise that Republican leadership in congress wants no part of a Jan. 6 investigation? After all, it wasn’t rowdy left wingers who were calling for Pelosi’s head on that fateful day.

Limit cyber access: Any system or device that is either critical to our needs or can cause harm if it malfunctions or is mis-operated simply should not be cyber accessible, except to read or monitor it. All control of these facilities should only be possible by qualified people from secure control rooms that are on site with the equipment or are connected by secure networks to which outsiders physically cannot gain access. Period.
Lightfoot needs to go: Why is Lori Lightfoot still mayor of Chicago given she can’t seem to stop the mayhem in Chicago? It just keeps getting worse. She should resign and get someone in her place who can resolve all this chaos.
D.C.’s voters disenfranchised: The current situation of the District of Columbia may represent the longest running injustice in the history of the United States, dating as it does from the ratification of the Constitution in 1787 to the present day. District of Columbia consists of 712,000 disenfranchised Americans who are taxed without representation. The residents of the district deserve to have the same rights all the rest of us Americans have, and the sooner the better. Justice delayed is justice denied.
Making it about race: I see Mayor Lightfoot finally has pulled the race card by only talking to Black reporters now for interviews. This should really help her along on her reelection bid. Anxious to see how this is going to play out in two years.
Party-throwers, please be considerate: Congratulations to all of the graduates. It’s really has been a challenging year. For the parents who are celebrating and giving parties in their house or back yards, the only think I ask if to be considerate of others. Turn down the loud music and noise after a given time. Have a good time, but think of others that are not in the party, laughing and dancing with the group.
More than on ‘truth’: A Speak Out commenter quoted Marvin Gaye and talked about bringing peace and love and all those things. But then they contradicted themselves by saying there are people that don’t believe the truth. What makes you think what you believe is the truth? If you do some more research and you follow the news as it’s happening, I’m going to guarantee you there’s more truth than just your truth.
