    Wow, feel sorry for you. Did you see the evidence coming out about Clinton and the 2016 election? Biden and Obama knew all about it. Kiss your freedoms goodbye if Biden, should say when Harris becomes president. Wake up.

    Glad to see we’re holding steady on the spread of the virus. Now we just need to double down and bring the infection rate even lower before any cold weather gets here and keeps people congregating more indoors. Still a shame that people sitting in the pit of infection in the Whitehouse continue to lie about anything related to this pandemic and won’t even follow basic recommendations of their own CDC! Just hope they disinfect really good before our new President and VP move in! Leadership and honesty is coming and not a second to soon.
