 SIX MONTHS INTO " TEAM BIDEN," WHERE DOES THE UNITED STATES STAND? 





Well, it's been since Jan that I have posted on this site, and my reasons are numerous, but that's all in the past. Today starts a new journey with this blog site, which I have kept for over ten years. I also have a confession to make. I've found a new place to voice my thoughts, delusions, opinions, you pick. Twitch! Yes, I said Twitch. No, I am not gaming as I review world events for those who know the website. Twitch may be the current platform for gamers and Left of Center youths who wish to complain about nearly everything under the sun, but I'm part of a group out to change that. Why Twitch, you ask? Easy. The process is easy, it's live, it's interactive, and most of all, it's just fun! I have found a very convenient way to stream live from Monday to Friday. I start at 7am CST and go to 9am CST. I go by ColDan11.....go figure right. I stream from Twitch's " just chatting" section, and I absolutely love the interaction with all sides of the never-ending ideological spectrum. So, if you don't know Twitch, don't worry. If I can download the app to my computer and phone, so can you. Right about now, you might be asking, " why? If he has found a 'new platform,' then why push back to his old blog site?" Again, that's an easy answer. I missed posting on this site. I missed seeing what countries would read what I've said. I missed knowing someone took the time to do all of the above. Yep, I just missed it. So, if you are so inclined, join me on Twitch as you read the post. I promise to keep posting on this site. If the timezone issue becomes a show stopper, just know that Twitch hangs the streams for over a week. That gives everyone plenty of time to go back and check out the recorded streams. I hope you do; I think you will appreciate the outstanding feedback and banter that takes place every day. Okay. On to the business at hand. 

Six Months in:

It's been a little over six months since President Biden entered the White House. Some are still screaming, "COVID". Some are still screaming RIGGED ELECTION". Biden has had his first and perhaps only face-to-face with the Tsar, Putin, and is now in the early stages of preparing to meet the Emperor. Spending money like it grows on trees is once again the norm in DC as if it ever stopped. Afganistan's capital is about to turn into Siagon. As you might guess, everyone is arguing over leaving, not leaving. People can go to baseball games, but hold on. The "Delta variant, has the media running for their bunkers, with anyone who has not been vaccinated nothing more than Trump fanatics out to kill off the rest of the nation. Life, not the economy, was almost back to normal, whatever "normal" means nowadays. Oh ya, immigration. Illegal / Undocumented / Refugee / take your pick.  The US hit the 1 MILLION mark for the year, and the year is not over yet. What to do about the border crisis that does or doesn't exist. That's a great question. Just don't ask any politician for an answer. You see, we are nearing the next election cycle as if they ever stop, and that's all any politician cares about. Climate Change? Did I mention Climate Change. Parts of the NorthWest hit records. Death Valley, the hottest spot on Earth, they say; I would disagree, hit 130. If you are against turning the tide of "Climate Change," you are obviously a Trump Supporter out to kill the world. If you say "Climate Change" will wipe out humanity, then you are a Left-leaning nutjob. As all of this and more is going on, President Biden finds it harder and harder to string words together as he tries to keep up with a pace he simply cannot deal with. So, six months in, and what has changed? Well, in my book, just one thing. My Blog. It's back, and it's coming back daily. Not the bright note I know everyone was looking for, but at least I can say I didn't have to have an argument over starting it back up. More to follow, and by the way. Get into Twitch. It's the platform for discord most of us are hungry for. Talk tomorrow.
