Unreliable mail service
What is happening to our mail service?
On Feb. 12, I mailed three valentines to St. Joseph addresses. Two of the valentines contained three small gifts and one valentine contained one small gift. The envelope with the one gift was finally received two weeks later, and the other two envelopes each containing three gifts have never been received.
I recently received a late payment notice for a credit card charge that I had paid a month earlier, but was not received by the company until a month later. The late fee charge was $20 ($5 more than the original charge).
I have talked with other people who are also having problems receiving and sending mail. I was told the problem is with the Kansas City post office. Whatever the cause, the problem needs to be fixed. Many older people still receive their social security checks in the mail. Prescriptions are often mailed. Important notices, letters, checks, legal info, ect. come through the mail. A large potential problem could be absentee ballots that are mailed in. With an important election on the horizon, can we depend on these ballots being received and counted on time? Can we depend on our postal service?

Corrupt Democrats
The Democrats have weaponized the DOJ and the FBI, and, with the assistance of the national media, have succeeded in portraying Donald Trump as a villain. The Democrats have continually accused Donald Trump of something from the beginning of his presidency, none of which led to a guilty verdict. Now, they are corrupting the court system in an attempt to keep him from the presidency. They carefully selected jurisdictions like New York, Atlanta and D.C. to conduct their Soviet-style show trials.
It should be clear to us all that nobody is above the law, but under the Biden administration, that statement only applies to those that do not follow the Democrat agenda. I cite the example of the case of Biden keeping classified materials. There were no midnight raids to his house and he was not prosecuted because “he was so old and can’t remember anything,” whereas Trump was accused of the same thing and his home was raided by FBI, brandishing guns and cameras. He subsequently was charged.
In New York, he is on trial for fraudulently valuing his property too high. Who brought the case? Not one bank or loan company complained because they were always paid on time and in full. To make matters worse, the corrupt judge found him guilty and ordered him to pay a $485 million fine to New York. This is not justice. This is New York stealing Trump’s money.
Another case of a corrupt Democrat judiciary is in Atlanta where he is on trial for trying to influence the outcome of the election in 2020. Which for the never-Trumpers, as president, he had every right to do. Now that bogus charges are falling apart, the Arizona Democrats are speeding up their own bogus case in hopes of falsely imprisoning the leader of the opposition party. Doesn’t sound like a democracy to a normal person.
Frequently, you will hear Democrats saying that Trump is a threat to our democracy. Well, take a close look at what the Biden administration is doing. Immigration is an invasion! Been to the grocery lately? Inflation is sky high. Fuel costs are high, rising 40 cents per gallon in just days. Think of the infringement on our First Amendment rights, here again, only those speaking the Democrat Party line have a voice. Just recently, a news reporter was arrested for being at the riot in D.C. on January 6. The reporter wasn’t reporting the party line, so Joe had him arrested; the FBI paraded him into the courtroom in handcuffs and chains for a misdemeanor charge! The modern day Democrat party is an authoritarian movement that believes in jailing their political opponents and will stop at nothing to maintain their power.
The majority of Americans believe that Joe Biden’s policies have made their lives worse and the Democrats know that. This is why they have resorted to running smear campaigns on their opponents. Trump has survived years of smearing from the Democrats and they have been completely wrong. The people know that Trump will reverse the abomination that Biden has created. It is our job as voters to make sure Joe Biden is a one term president.
