Priorities

Looks like the Federal Aviation Administration needs some attention. All these crashes can’t be coincidences.

Ukraine

Ukraine got into this war because Russia invaded it, demanding it give up independence. The only way for Ukraine not to go to war was bowing down to Vladimir Putin and forfeiting freedom. We need to defend Ukraine.

They started it?

For President Trump to suggest that Ukraine started the war with Russia shows the depth of either his ignorance or his arrogance.

Trash pickup

Thanks to Harrison County for picking up trash along Canal Road. Too bad that it won’t stay that way for long.

FEMA

I’m waiting to see what help Kentucky will get for damages caused by severe flooding. What will replace FEMA and solutions to our infrastructure? It’s time to show us what’s the domestic agenda.

Time spent

How does President Trump have time for all his photo-ops and interviews? Guessing meetings and discussions about issues are not being done. And Elon Musk’s incoherent ranting at the White House news conference was filled with generalized statements with a few examples to prove his point of massive fraud in the government. Do the work and come up with solutions.

Call him president

I find it amusing to see so many posts calling President Trump stupid, or comparing him to a sixth grader, kindergartner or whatever. Such creativity for the haters.
