20. I remember a story
Wed Mar 4, 2026, 09:03 PM
Wednesday

my father, a great depression-era baby, once told me. He said in the 1932 election in his neighborhood every house had a Roosevelt sign except for one. They had a Hoover sign. Needless to say, the family in this one house was outcast by everyone in the neighborhood.

I sense the same thing happening again. The MSM media speculates that the democrats will likely take the house in congress. The senate, they say, is much closer. I don't believe it for a microsecond. People are fed up and tired of the lies. The lies about war, the lies about Epstein, the lies about inflation, the lies about unemployment and the list goes on. This all in just under a year and a half. They are saying "enough is enough!"

Top it off with what ICE is doing and people are livid. I watched a recent clip of a republican senator from North Carolina ripping Noem a new one for the gross misconduct and unconstitutional actions against American citizens by ICE. The fury is growing and even huge in some minds on the republican side. This midterm election, if there is no interference allowed, will be monumental for the Democratic Party.
