Thank God
This voter thanks God we have President Joe Biden in charge of this country. Can you imagine the pathetic mess this would be if Bone Spur were still in charge? He’d still be denying that the virus was even real. And I can’t imagine what he would be trying to get us to drink or inject. That is for sure. Also, I like the way Biden handled Putin. He didn’t suck to him or get on his knees like Mr. Bone Spur did. Anyway, thank you Joe for leading the country and bringing us back to our senses.
Not about her beauty
Publicity about Gabby is not about her beauty. Gabby was on social media constantly up to the point she disappeared. If all the people and children missing had the same experience, it would have been the same coverage. And Gabby was with the person who probably killed her on her social media. Common denominator? Missing people, usually female or children, even men, are runaways, crazy or pushing someone’s buttons. And perpetrators are usually males that blame it on the victims.
Bring them to your beach house
Mr. Biden, why does the United States have to provide COVID medicine for the whole world? Why are our southern borders open to the whole world? How are the few rich people in the United States going to support the whole world? Why don’t you bring all the Haiti people to your beach house and have them camp out with you. That should make you happy.
Waiting for a call
Nicki Minaj has like 2 million followers on Facebook, so President Biden and his administration think it’s important to give her a call and straighten her out on COVID because she said everybody should pray on it themselves and then do their own research. So it was brought up in a meeting with the press secretary, Jen Psaki, and she said they are reaching out to Nicki Minaj. Well, I would like her to reach out to me. I have no followers on Facebook. So what are the chances that they’re going to get back to me on any issue? And besides that, don’t they have a lot more to worry about with Americans stranded in Afghanistan? I’m waiting for the White House to give me a call.
Blood on your hands
I hate to say this, but I think the bad guys are winning. In the last month, four homes on our block have been hit by gunfire. One bullet missed my wife by maybe a second in time and a foot in distance. Another house had a round fly through the living room while the family, including three small children, was watching television. Another neighbor had his truck shot up, his refrigerator damaged, the glass broken out of his oven window, a broken front picture window. These are good, decent people. They really don’t have money to repair the damage. Their homes weren’t even the intended target. The bullets were sprayed wildly with no regard for the consequences. Only by the grace of God was no one killed. There’s a sickness in the community. In most small towns, something like this simply never happens. Please, if you’re reading this and know who the criminals are who are doing this senseless shooting, man up and say something and get them stopped. If you don’t, the blood they will surely eventually spill is on your hands.
Break the loops
When disposing your disposable masks, please break the loops so that animals, like ducks, don’t end up with them around their necks.
