It is disheartening to read that the commentators of the largest watched “news” channel have a totally different view of events than what they are telling their viewers. These people are not journalists. They are overpaid entertainers who will prostitute themselves for profit. True journalists have integrity. A news outlet should have credibility. This outlet… Continue reading Disheartening

I have written many editorials over the years. This category contains some of the editorials I have written and includes “Letters to the Editor” that I have sent to newspapers. Some have been published, but the majority have not seen the color of the ink.
NO PLAN
What plan does the Republican’s have to reduce inflation, bring prices down and lessen gas prices? They don’t have one. In order to get people to their side they attack the morality of the nation. What is “woke”? Something that does not make sense to people with an active brain. Censor books? That is a… Continue reading NO PLAN
A win by 45?
Our last president was a failure in many ways. One item he has been a success at is convincing his followers and others to distrust the media. I live with other seniors who have voiced their assumptions on disbelieving the news. Many would not know the difference between objective and subjective news. Objective is factual… Continue reading A win by 45?
This world and our nation are getting older. So are the inhabitants of our country. Many of us are living on Social Security and little else. Some were lucky to have worked for a company who provided a retirement fund. Many have savings that they accumulated to supplement their retirement. Because of flaws in the US Code Section 42 concerning rent increases many of us are seeing our savings dwindling and the amount we counted on is shortening our ability to cover expenses.
US Code Section 42 allows a developer to build a senior structure and get a tax discount if the developer rents to those over the age of 55 and fall into a yearly income range that is determined by Housing and Urban Development statues. Anyone exceeding those ranges cannot rent from that developer. Each year… Continue reading This world and our nation are getting older. So are the inhabitants of our country.

Developing a vaccine
People have no idea what it takes for the scientific community to develop a medication or a vaccine that will benefit mankind. The polio vaccines took years to develop but once they were approved families did not want to wait long to get their children inoculated. In order for that to happen the vaccine was… Continue reading Developing a vaccine
House Riot Committee
House of Representatives minority leader, Kevin McCarthy, accused majority leader, Nancy Pelosi, of playing politics when she dismissed two of his appointees to the House committee concerning the attempted coup of January 6th. McCarthy looks intelligent but looks could be deceiving. His appointment of Jim Jordan, a staunch supporter of the former president, has to… Continue reading House Riot Committee
Open letter to Minnesota Republican Representatives
To Congressmen, Emmer, Hagedorn, Stauber and Congress Woman Elect, Fischbach, Never in my wildest dreams would I believe that a Minnesota Congress person would ever sign on to destroy our Democracy. But that is what has happened in the Texas lawsuit concerning the presidential election. I do not live in your district but I am… Continue reading Open letter to Minnesota Republican Representatives
It works to lie
If Donald Trump taught Republican politicians one thing that will advance their career, it is to lie. It works. Ron Johnson, Ted Cruz, Lindsay Graham and Josh Hawley of the Senate. Madison Cawthorn, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Kevin McCarthy in the House of Representatives to name a few have expounded on a number of falsehoods knowing… Continue reading It works to lie
“Jim Crow 1”
This nation is in serious trouble. Many states Republican controlled legislators are trying their best to denigrate voters who would more than likely vote for Democrats off the voting rolls. Our neighboring state, Wisconsin, is one of them. The more they can keep people from voting the better chance they have for complete control of… Continue reading “Jim Crow 1”
Marjorie Taylor Green
Marjorie Taylor Greene as a member of our congress scares the hell out of me. They must have opened the doors to the asylum in her Georgia district to garner enough votes to put in the House of Representatives. Why any sane person would vote for this pimple on the face of humanity is beyond… Continue reading Marjorie Taylor Green
