The juxtaposition of these two articles spoke volumes about our society today. In one, a person uses the word “ladies” and is denied a job opportunity by a chairwoman who had a problem with word usage. In the other story, a very militant-looking person in a Star Wars outfit toting a realistic weapon is investigated at a T station where, I guess,  there was no evidence of wrongdoing.. Still deciding which of these incidents infuriates me more.

I wish to thank Barney Frank for listing the many failures of Joe Biden’s presidency.  The facts speak for themselves about the poor leadership and constant lack of ownership that Joe Biden has for the dismal performance of his stewardship. The buffoons that hold positions of power in Biden’s administration have weakened our country.  The “buck” never stops at Biden’s feet.  His blame game is tiresome to hear.  We are surrounded by wolves who smell a decaying “city on a hill.” The Marxists and the media enablers are watching America’s defeat.  We are witnessing the decline of our Republic and citizens are not even aware of the rot that swirls around us.  When do we open the windows and yell, “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.”  Thank you Barney for opening your window and making your voice heard.

The Taliban are back and ruling in Afghanistan, China is getting closer and closer to taking control of Taiwan, Iran is getting closer to manufacturing a nuclear weapon, Russia will never leave Ukraine, North Korea is constantly threatening South Korea and the US allegiance with Saudi Arabia is slowly fading. With all this happening our country has problems with individuals crossing the southern border, crime increasing throughout the states, increased fentanyl use and inflation. So what is the major issue that American news stations focus on, Donald Trump. Personally, I really only care about everything but Trump.

Janet Yellen was an esteemed economist and public servant when serving as president of the San Francisco Fed and later as chair of the Federal Reserve. Her reputation as Treasury Secretary has suffered now that she is flacking for an administration seeking a second term. She would do the country a solid by telling the truth instead of dissimulating for political points.

The Biden Administration claims to be the most transparent presidential administration in history. Then there is Climate Czar John Kerry. He has refused to turn over operational documents requested by Congress. He evades direct questions from members of Congress. He ignores or slow rolls Freedom of Information Act requests. His departments’ budget and staffing are a mystery.  He is apparently using his own Gmail account to conduct government business. He is spending OUR money, not HIS money and WE have the right to know how and where it is being spent.
