The week before last I dropped my ballot into the box in front of town hall. There were no self-appointed “ballot watchers” who have swallowed the con man-in-chief’s lies.

The guy in this video who says, “Go back to same day voting and paper ballots” should be reminded of Florida’s “hanging chads” in the 2000 election. Even where voting is done the way he wants I’m sure he would convince himself there was “something wrong” with the process.

One of the big Republican talking points this year is crime. Yes, let’s talk about crime. In particular the school shootings resulting from the “all guns all the time” mentality that holds the country hostage.

After my father’s death five years ago, I gave serious consideration to paying my siblings to buy our parents’ retirement home in Arizona. I am very glad I decided against it. First, the pandemic would have made it extremely difficult to look after the property, and now there is the insanity of AZ political candidates who deny the legitimacy of the 2020 election in favor of Joe Biden. Mark Finchem is either seriously self-deluded or he’s flat-out lying with a straight face.

Jim McGovern is my representative in the United States House. Although I am loath to embed a Tweet, especially now that Twitter is under control of the crazy rich guy from South Africa, McGovern has something to say to Marjorie Taylor Greene.

YOU called for Nancy Pelosi to be executed, @RepMTG.

YOU said she should be hung for treason.

And now that someone listened, you're making Paul Pelosi's attack about YOU.

This is what Republicans stand for, America. It’s sick. https://t.co/Nrfbcj4eXI
