Follow the leader
Marjorie Taylor Greene is a QAnon kook, and now she has made the Republican Party a QAnon kooks party.
Cowards of Donald Trump
Blue Lives Matter signs. Vote Republican. Vote for insurrection, storming the U.S. Capitol and killing U.S. Capitol police officers, either by throwing a fire extinguisher at them or beating another with an American flagpole. That is the Republican Party — cowards of Donald Trump.
Chicken Little
Guess what, “Sky is falling”: The sky fell, and we elected Biden. Yes it did.
To clarify
I’m calling in regarding all the people that are so surprised and so uninformed about the closing of the Keystone Pipeline, claiming how many jobs were lost. They don’t realize that the Keystone Pipeline would have cost thousands of more jobs had it been put in place. It was intended to deliver Canadian oil to tankers in Louisiana to be shipped to other countries.
Rising gas prices
About a recent headline in your newspaper, “Biden, US back to business”: In his first 100 days of everything he’s promised, nothing has happened other than putting thousands of people out of work. Have you looked at the gas prices since this toad took office? It’s up at least 50 cents a gallon in some places. This is what you elected?
Create a new bill
All our bills have presidents on them. If you want to have Harriet Tubman on a piece of currency, why don’t you just create a new denomination for Ms. Tubman, either in the form of a $15, $25 or $75 bill? Don’t take one of our presidents away to put somebody who has never been a president on a piece of our existing currency.
