Remember that the gospel writers gave us the news. Today many people are worried about speaking up. Don’t be. Don’t risk heaven, speak up. Remember, the love of money is the root of all evil. Don’t be threatened or bribed. It’s not worth the eternal risk, is it? Merry Christmas to all!

I hear a lot of false information on the Kerrville flood. The NWS was staffed. Since 2016 the county and state have been considering a better flood warning system. There were reasons or excuses for not appropriating money and getting it done. Need flood gauges, a NOAA radio ($50) and alert horn!

Basic tariff fact is they are paid at the port of entry by the receiving party. Contrary to what you hear from the U.S. President, the country those goods come from do not pay the tariff. He keeps saying the letters tell the rate each country will pay. He doesn’t understand or purposely misleads.

In West Virginia, our state anniversary is June 20, which was Friday this year. Our governor did not allow state employees to get Juneteenth, Thursday, off as a holiday. Workers could have had a 4,day weekend. Now, this week, the governor is giving them Thursday and Friday July 3 and 4 off. ??????

Here in West Virginia a local Mexican restaurant employee has been taken to Texas by ICE. He was going to his scheduled immigration hearings. What am I missing? Why are we looking to deport these people? Our immigration system has been broken, meaning they can’t get quick hearings. Awful!

Two countries are bombing each other and the U.S. has a scheduled military parade tomorrow. Really!!

I have a novel. Instead of using cruel actions on immigrants, let’s do the following: if the immigrant is not a criminal let’s make them legal. Whatever if takes! Meantime Miller has given ICE a daily quota so they are going after anyone, many of which have working in very essential jobs!

The only way to prove Mr.Musk wrong is for Kash to release the files. I’m betting that won’t happen any time soon.

If there is fraud in Medicaid, and there probably is some, catch it, then come up with a reasonable budget. Otherwise Congress is guessing. Put the cart before the horse. DOGE took the low hanging fruit route by laying off people instead of doing the hard work involved in looking for true fraud!

As a mathematician and as someone who took Pysch 101, I would like to say that not all immigrants are murderers or rapists. Not all murderers and rapists are immigrants. I am so tired of fake news generalizing this.

Does the orange guy think he can get $$ out of other countries to lower taxes? Is he that greedy?

Here is the tariff question for the future: What economic indicators Will it take for him to reduce or eliminate these tariffs? We are talking about someone whose businesses have filed bankruptcy many times?

I saw Bill Higbie on Newsmax. My mom was watching that channel. He is loud, arrogant, and does not understand the constitution. I don’t like his show. Too much like another network known for twisting the truth and lying.

I saw where Guantanamo was shut down. Less than 50 people had been sent there but the feds spending millions on soldiers and contractors at the site. What a waste. DOGE is AWOL. Anyone else heard this?

When the government lays off employees without deep dive analysis only saves pm payroll. Then those workers will get unemployment. We should interview employees looking for waste. That would save much more money. Putting a businessman in charge g he as resulted in taking the easy road, layoffs. 😙
