2. This shooting of the CEO from UHC

Tells me, something has fundamentally changed in the USA.

You know the silent with Trump winning, the sort of acceptance that one quarter of our population is brain dead and one half is indifference to what happens in this nation.

Just seems like there is something in the wind….and I don’t know what it is - but it feels like the silence before a storm.

Maybe the MAGA/Trump are playing with fire….I just don’t know, but it feels like the silence is saying that there is a point where people are not going to take it anymore.

Then, maybe when the MAGA crowd that have a few brain cells realize that they have been played - they might realize that the Right/Left have a common adversary - the Rich.

I am beyond belief that four people have a trillion dollars and some of the working stiffs don’t have enough to meet their daily needs - and we as a people are okay with that. Maybe the spark that might ignite the fire is the GOP/Project 2025 plan to strip SS and Medicare from everyone.

I sadly think, we are starting to live in Interesting Times.
