Trump - Part 2
(I had formatting problems that I couldn't clear - hence, Part 2)
He and Musk are threatening Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Even some of the Republican talking heads on Fox News are reacting badly to the stock market (and their stocks, I'm sure) heading downward into possible recession territory.
I am trying not to watch the news but it's like seeing stacked dominos falling down one by one. He is putting tariffs on Mexico and Canada, talking about making Canada the 51st state, and acquiring Greenland (somehow) along with Panama. Meanwhile, he and Musk are laying off people in the government right and left. You want to look away, but you can only ignore it for so long.
On another nicer note, UTMC employees on the MVH/MCOT/MVH FB group were saying very nice things about Bob yesterday. He had been at the hospital for 30 years and had gotten to know many people in many different departments. He is missed by a large group of people.
I volunteered yesterday for the first time in a month. K______ wanted me to do something in Excel with formulas but I just don't remember enough about how to do that, and politely told her that I didn't feel comfortable updating their worksheet. It was a complex worksheet where the dietitians enter what they do daily as far as how they spend their time, and on what, in increments of 15 minutes. I am glad we never had to do anything like that in the lab. It would have been a nightmare to have to fill out on a daily basis.
Time will tell how things go in Washington, DC. Since the pandemic, the world has gotten more conservative, but the rabid reactions going on in our capital now defy explanation. It has the appearance of isolationism but is so much more than that. DT seems to be in payback mode for every person or entity that has slighted him over the course of the last twenty years. It is almost like Caligula has taken over as President.

To quote from the Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy:
“The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.
To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.
To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”
This is admittedly from a humourous book, but it is very true and is aggravated by the entire concept of democracy which holds that the considered opinion of an educated person is of no more worth than the whim of a half-wit.
As an outsider looking in, this is exactly what has happened. There’s a president who has got into office by promising what they want to those who don’t understand that he cannot possibly deliver what they want. And when he can’t deliver, he tells those who voted for him that it is all the fault of whoever they don’t like and his popularity goes through the roof.
We had pretty much the same here in the UK a few years ago with Boris Johnson who openly lied to Parliament and the masses loved him for it. However UK law has mechanisms for removing a corrupt/incompetent leader. I’m no expert but from what I can see (and I could be wrong) the American constitution doesn’t seem to have this?
I'm Ashley, from Texas, USA. I had been in a relationship with a guy and we had unprotected sex for the first time and within a day I got a big bump on the crease of my thigh and vagina. After a few days it began to hurt more and more. I told him to take a picture of it for me, and it looked like open sores, like bugs were biting off my skin or something. So I went to the ER and they said genital herpes. I was soooo depressed. My boyfriend and I cried. He cried for me, but he had no idea he had it too. The next day, the same thing happens to him. At this point, we think I gave it to him because I was the first one to show the symptoms. The next phase I went through was depression. At this point, all I did was sleep and cry. I felt like my life was over. I knew I could never get married, I felt dirty, and worthless. I was depressed for about two months. I fought thoughts of suicide and it was a hassle to even carry out my daily tasks. So I started to wonder if there would be a remedy to this disease, which led me to going to visiting many hospitals, and nothing good came out from it, until I read a person’s testimony online that said that they were cured with the help of Dr Harry, of this disease that the world deems incurable and tears rolled down my face. That person's testimony sparked a hope in me that led me to contact Dr Harry. So he assured us that we are going to be alright, after meeting up with the necessary requirements, he sent us a parcel and gave us an instruction guide on how to use it, which we did, after 7 days of using the medication, the herpes was totally cured. So my boyfriend and I went and got tested for every STD in the book and every single test came back NEGATIVE, we also went back to the hospital, and it was confirmed NEGATIVE. I am posting my testimony to help someone out there suffering from this disease. Do not hesitate to contact Dr. Harry via e-mail: drharryherbs@gmail.com or call him or whatsapp on +2348142350014
