I’m going to use my First Amendment right, my freedom of speech, to speak out about what is happening in our country while I still can. If you can’t see that we are well on our way to living under an authoritarian regime, you are sadly mistaken.

The deployment of the National Guard in Washington, D.C., is a perfect example, especially when crime is down. There is no emergency in D.C. Oh wait, it’s at the White House and with this administration. This is the crisis.

He is not what you thought you were getting when you voted for him. He hasn’t kept any of his promises. He has done nothing but create chaos, one distraction after another, to try to take attention away from the Epstein files.

Prices will go up with the tariffs (taxes) he has enacted. I am saddened that he has made so many cuts to programs that benefit those less fortunate, women, children, the disabled and veterans. The rule of law continues to be broken by the felon himself. He wants it his way and his way only. That’s not how it works in a democracy.

And yet again, he praises Putin, a treasonous dictator, and he accomplished nothing while in Alaska but disgracing our country one more time. Putin doesn’t want to meet with President Zelenskyy, not now and maybe never. Peace out.
