The MAHA Influence
Earlier this year, once my birthday, Inauguration Day was over. things began to change. Especially with this MAHA Make America Healthy Again movement when RFK Jr. was finally voted in as HHS Secretary. He has really shaken up this department.

A National Divorce?
Over the last few months I have been reading a book written by Brian Kilmeade. “The President and the Freedom Fighter: Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, and their battle to Save America’s Soul.” Just a couple of weeks ago I read the pages detailing John Brown and the unfortunate circumstances of the Federal Arsenal that would…

Charlie…Is Still Inspiring
My heart still cannot simply move on from Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

Grandpa’s
Two Saturdays ago Mom and I went to a baby shower. It was for a cousin and the paternal grandmother of this baby is my Dad’s first cousin. This was such a beautiful day and a wonderful celebration for these two families to welcome this baby before the birth. During this couple of hours I…

Trump Nominations
The last week has been quite exciting. Seeing the names of those tapped for nominations within Trump’s Administration has been exhilarating. The pace of these declarations have been a stark contrast to the first term’s second hand cabinet names not personally picked by Trump himself. There is a management that Susie Wiles must be in…
