TheVoiceOfJoyce The Hantavirus may not be an isolated case. The last time we had an outbreak of the Hantavirus, it arrived with El Niño. Unfortunately, we’re no longer prepared to combat new viruses. Trump has understaffed major preparedness, while wasting money on frivolous no bid contracts and a War. Meanwhile, we’re coping with an environment that caused dissension over Vaccine use that helps people and doesn’t harm them. People have died because the Trump administration withheld evidence that the Covid and Shingles vaccines are safe!

TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump is tiring of his $500Billion – Trillion War, while he accomplished nothing? He’s painting the reflecting pool by the Washington Monument, giving out another no bid exorbitant contract. Meanwhile, the price of gas at the pump and food costs remain high. No matter, the Republican Party has gained the extra seats they need in the House, while the Courts strike down Citizens Ballots!We must organize, nominate and vote!

TheVoiceOfJoyce Not everyone is happy with the Gerrymandering decision in private, in a rush. Nor are they happy with applications for government jobs in secret Tennessee is a 40% Minority/Democratic State. 40% of the population deserves rights.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Thank you Supreme Court for bringing racial inequality back to our States. The Republican States didn’t have to obey the President and Court and chose to act morally reprehensible. How far will they go? Will the majority of constituents support extreme Gerrymandering? Shame. It’s also a shame, we’re wasting time, money and resources in Trump’s Iranian War. If the Iranians can hold up for months, what’s the point. The US and the World are worse off.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Sure I’m interested in the stock futures today, but the accumulation of the Republican War chest for the midterms is staggering: $4.7 Billion. That’s a lot of money, in a limping economy. They’re the only ones making money. It would be nice to have a more equitable society and good paying jobs.
