I have to admit to deepening depression. The state of the country, a cascade of health events, anxiety regarding both as well as social security, well it’s a mess. Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest? , I find myself whispering as I totter around the house now on crutches. As always, I am so appreciative of your work, which makes us all feel connected and less alone.

Absolutely I finally received mine today, it was 5 days late. Apparently the Doge boys put a hold on when the bank could realize our money. I spent a long on the phone with a banker today explaining what was happening! Good luck everyone, if you don’t have your money post it on FB, ❤️Twitter and direct it to Elon and the President.

I am so glad you wrote this. I just ranted these exact points to my like minded neighbors at supper last night! We need a Jobs and Freedom dwarfing march on Washington! Let the orange chicken shit Commander in Chief try to arrest 300 THOUSAND PEOPLE!

Well, as a guy who didn’t miss but a few DC protest marches during the Vietnam War, I think they made a difference even though Nixon arrested thousands and put them in RFK stadium without warrants and charges. Only made matters worse for him.

Keep it coming, Jim Bob. Your words are the drumbeat that -- the goddesses willing -- get us to the other side of this insanity. Meanwhile, our bruised souls struggle. Sending out an SOS.

Thanks, Kay, so appreciate you. And loved your Brownsville story. I started my broadcast career down in the valley at KRIO-AM in McAllen.

Trump buddy Lawrence Kudlow says it best: Americans are "going to have to suffer." I always feel better when multi-millionaires and billionaires inform us less endowed folks that WE are going to have to suffer. It's kind of a "get over it" approach to swallowing diktats.

Brilliant, Jim! I keep thinking, “This one will be the tipping point.” Let’s hope we reach it soon.

Don’t know what that tipping point is Rose Ann, but we need it soon because we are tipping in the wrong direction, and fast.
