The world is ever changing and that includes the USA.
Just look at this area since Columbus sailed in 1492.

People at the Military Academy shouldn’t be treated with disrespect like that.

4 years of academics, discipline and sacrifice, results in sitting through 45 minutes of a unqualified dumbass lecturing you.

What’s scary is how close this incompetent fool is to being president of the U.S.

We have a mentally deranged, 80-year old incompetent as president who could die at any time (he’s been falling a lot lately) - and THIS is what is waiting in the wings.

If Biden is re-elected (and with vote fraud, he will be) - there is an even greater chance of this idiot being our president.

The truth is that a small group of elites “make the choices”.

“Democracy” is a myth for the gullible.

At my daughter’s graduation a few years ago, Nancy Pelosi was the speaker. My daughter knew I would not attend (she was right).

We ended up at the graduation ceremony for her major, which was much smaller and with better speakers.
