From my ramblings, eight years ago was brought back to light as ramblings on national television played out on Dec 17th 2025.
“All that glitters is not gold.
It’s hard to believe that nearly a year has gone by with our president at the helm. A year of madness, anxiety and fear.
We seemingly started off with the unlikely, yet close relationship with a former adversary and some Russian Oligarchs, while at the same time alienating our old time Nato allies. As a country, we have been living through a threatening stand with yet another authoritarian dictator in North Korea, one also with Nuclear weapons. Then there have been the increased pressure on delicate Middle East relationships and peace alliances.
Domestically, we have witnessed the need to sabotage any and all things that were set up under a previous administration. Changes from things like Health Care, and Communications with our Internet, to Environmental concerns, to our protected National Parks. Then we have neglected care for our citizens in tattered Puerto Rico, or for our fire torn California. For the most bizarre moment, we can’t forget the seemingly alarming alliance to the White Supremacy groups and the president.
Currently, our Society is having a Tax plan shoved down our throats. Yes, carefully these folks in Washington DC are sweetening the bitterness, but yet for us the sweetener will run out. Amazingly the Corporate folks get a locked in deal, overall this unscrupulous deal stinks. The potential consequences are high, with social safety nets being stripped from Society, while we the people get to deal with our ever growing National Debt.
I’m thoroughly tired of a leader, of an administration that does not cherish what America strives for. In a leader living without integrity, honestly, in without caring for our fellow man, in a leader not being able to comprehend what it is to love your neighbor as yourself.
It’s been a long time since I’ve felt sad for the country that I love. Now is one of them.
With faith, I’m praying for an end to the selfish greed, I’m praying for common sense and love to prevail.”
