Something to remember
During his presidency, Trump rolled back train regulations, contributing to the derailment and environmental disaster in East Palestine, Ohio. Have you noticed train derailments happening on a regular basis lately? Trump also rolled back EPA regulations throughout the country, allowing companies like Medline and Vantage Specialty Chemicals to spew their unregulated, cancer causing ETO emissions into the air we breathe. Let’s not forget the multiple surveillance balloons that crossed our skies under his watch, gathering sensitive information without interception. He loosened strick banking rules contributing to the collapse of Signature and Silicon Valley Bank. Trump also withdrew the United States from the Iran Nuclear Deal, making the world a lot less safe. How can all these reckless rollbacks and withdrawals be associated with making America great again? It appears he turned his back on the American people. Something to remember in 2024.
They all come knocking
This country, the great United States, is the most generous nation of all the nations. And that’s why most people dump on this country, and this will be a country that I feel if we go into war a lot of people will be turning their backs to us. So, keep that in mind, folks. They all come knocking at our doors for money and help with no accountability.
Stunning
Have you noticed the hairdos on some of these basketball players? Some of these guys have got to be spending more time on their hair than the cheerleaders do. I think it’s hilarious as you watch the rest of the tournament, take a look at these dudes’ hairdos. It is just stunning.
A disgrace
I watched the Grammys, and during the memorial it kind of surprised me that they forgot some people like Anne Heche and then Robert Blake. Then Jimmy Kimmel made a comment about Robert Blake. I don’t care. He was part of their family. No matter what his history was, he was a star. If you’re not going to do it all, don’t do it at all. That was a disgrace.
Doing nothing about it
For the people that don’t like to do the research, we had another thousand people recently rush the border. A thousand, and we’re doing nothing about it. Maybe the United States should stop hiring people without valid green cards and legal status. Let’s not hire people, which I already know they are. Those are the folks that we need to issue charges against, for hiring undocumented people. Period.
Digging them out

Silicon Valley Bank officials are a bunch of liars and connivers, and it looks like the American citizens are going to be digging them out of this hole, too. I am tired of the banks that go under, and the American citizens are the ones again who have to dig them out.
