Dear Editor,

As I sit here, watching our nation being destroyed by what looks to be our president, vice president, congress, senate, political appointees, senior military generals, admirals, our FBI, DOJ, CDC, NIH, and judges, one thing strikes me as something they all have in common. They are, for the most part, all impressed with their own actions and performance. Now that’s a terrible burden for the citizen to overcome. Top that off with a dose of Covid and external opponents around the globe, and it seems down right formidable when I think, "How do we recover?"

Notice I didn’t use the word impossible; I chose formidable intentionally. It's going to take some citizen involvement, education, and a change in the way they view our government, but I'm certain it can be done. It must be done if we are to preserve our Republic.

A questionable election put into place a demented old man as our president, and a vice president who spews word salads when in front of the press which make no sense at all. She went to Europe to unite NATO members this week, and gave them a history lesson on wars in Europe. She made a complete fool of herself, and gave our nation another black eye. I could go down the line with many other administration appointees being as inept, but I choose to only discuss one of these insane people. Our Secretary of Transportation who addressed the supply chain issues by taking several weeks off to care for his newly adopted children. The best part of this was that he and his husband are breast feeding those children. Seems a bit abnormal to me, but many others in Biden's Administration are equally odd, to say the least. Oh, now that he's back from his maternity leave, the supply chain issue still remains.

On the energy front, our president gave Vladimir Putin a gift by shutting down our own pipeline, and telling Vlad to go ahead with some of his own pipelines going to service Europe. Oh, and more or less encouraged him to actually go into Ukraine when Biden talked about small incursions. Well we have a war now, and 5,000 troops are headed for Europe if today's news is to be believed. Meanwhile, President Biden is talking about shutting down more of our pipelines. Due to Biden's insanity, fuel prices will continue to rise, which means we will all pay more for everything. That would be even more than we are paying today.

No worries though, the President and his elves are telling us that we just need to do our part to support these disastrous decisions he's made. I know we can do it, inflation is only 7%, and you didn't need that new home, car, or fancy hamburger helper product.

It's hard to believe the damage this administration has done to our nation, don't worry though we did get two million more illegal aliens to feed, house, and provide free medical for. Come on taxpayers, we can do this!  

I'm disgusted because Americans aren't questioning this administration’s decisions. They sit quietly, Why? Very few are questioning the last election, though there is more than enough evidence showing plenty of fraud and cheating. Elections have consequences, stolen elections have more severe consequences.  < We are here.
