How much damage can one man do? In one year President [Joe] Biden has done a lot of damage. To our economy, energy, borders, crime, supply chain and education.

For years our government suppressed the truth about Russia and China. The media helps to spread the half truths and lies. They get rich on the government “officials” feeding them money and telling them what they want to report. That way they can cover up the horrendous performance on the withdrawal in Afghanistan leading to the deaths of 13 service members. Now, their totalitarian control creates fear to get power, money and control.
