Today is the anniversary of the January 6, 2021 riots on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. It looks like Trump got away with that one. Also, congress certified Trump’s election in November 2024. All of that sucks. I hate Donald Trump.
Justin Trudeau announced he is stepping down as Canada’s prime minister and Labour Party leader. I like Justin, he’s cool. I don’t relish the Conservative Party leader Pierre Polievere being elected in March or April.
I am sure there are other things to be in a tizzy about. I don’t think I want to hear them. But the day isn’t over yet.
All the phones across America received this national alert test message today. It was sent in English and Spanish. It’s good for this to happen so we are ready if something really happens.
People who are citizens of the LGBTQ community in both the USA and Canada are experiencing discrimination and hate. All they want to do is live their lives and it seems there are some that can’t stand that. I am standing with those who want to love, live, and laugh without fear of reprisal or those who seek to take from them what they enjoy themselves. There is no space for hate and equality hurts no one.
To conservatives, leave people alone. I dig your desire for fiscal responsibility and that sort of thing. However, your social issues side sucks. You don’t have the right to ruin their lives.
In America and the Commonwealth of Nations veterans are being thanked for their service. I salute those men and women who put on their nations uniform to serve and sometimes sacrifice. Your devotion to your country men and women are duly noted and appreciated. Thank you for everything.
If your politics is about power and control then it’s crap. Freedom and liberty for everyone right now are nothing but false promises and more crap. If it is in the name of “religion” then it’s bullshit and there’s lots of shame to go around.
Over 504,000 people have died in the United States due to COVID-19
Globally over 2.4 Million have lost their lives to COVID-19
In my home state of Tennessee, USA 11,133 souls have perished to COVID-19.
This fight isn’t over, prevention is the best tool. Wearing masks is needed to keep people from getting the virus. Vaccination will save lives so get yours when you get the chance.
Grace and peace and love to all who have lost their lives and to those who survive.
