Biden raises $75 million

Imagine an ex-President asking honorable Presidents who served in his own party to raise money for him. President Biden did. He has $75 million to show for it. What about the ex-President? Where is George W. Bush? Hey, buy a Bible.

The mess of the Colorado River

It rarely reaches the Pacific Ocean. Thank God Canada owns half of the Niagara and we only divert it but for a few miles for the generation of electricity. https://www.npr.org/2024/03/28/1241319639/colorado-river-water-climate-agriculture-beef-drought

Men who died in fall from bridge were immigrants

Six people died in Baltimore Harbor. At least two were undocumented immigrants.They were doing work most native born workers won’t touch. Undocumented immigrants will enrich our economy by $10 trillion in GDP and $1 trillion in revenue over the next decade. Immigration is the lifeblood of our country. Ronald Reagan said so. He never differentiated between documented and undocumented. 1989, Republican president Ronald Reagan said: “We lead the world because, unique among nations, we draw our people—our strength—from every country and every corner of the world. And by doing so we continuously renew and enrich our nation…. Thanks to each wave of new arrivals to this land of opportunity, we're a nation forever young, forever bursting with energy and new ideas, and always on the cutting edge, always leading the world to the next frontier. This quality is vital to our future as a nation. If we ever closed the door to new Americans, our leadership in the world would soon be lost.”
