The U.S. National Debt is approaching  $30 Trillion Dollars, and increasing faster than ever before, with an additional $5 Trillion this past year, and the so-called Infrastructure Bill will cost another $2 trillion.

That adds up to about $86,000 for every person living in the USA.to pay it off.

Of course these numbers are from various ‘government agencies’, so the real numbers could be anything – But, I doubt they are any lower.

Is the National Debt. and the ever increasing Budget Deficits relevant to “we, the people?”

The ‘American Rescue Plan’ from March 2021 is not funded. and the deficit is now the highest in the history of the USA.

Of course, the Democrats blame the Republicans and the ‘Trumpites’ blame the Bidenettes’. Continue reading

Today, Governor Ron DeSantis highlight’s progress made in Florida through efforts to expand access to live-saving monoclonal antibody treatments. Florida has 25 state-run monoclonal antibody treatment sites.

Since opening the first state monoclonal antibody site in Florida on August 12th, our state has experienced a more than 50% decrease in hospital admissions. Additionally, there has been a decline in hospital census for 24 consecutive days and COVID-like emergency room visits are down to the lowest point in nearly two months.

Micha Siegel, a Boca Raton resident who has received monoclonal antibodies, said, “Three weeks ago, I was fully vaccinated, had a family birthday party at my house, and we all ended up getting sick. I was sick for about two or three days before I got the treatment. The symptoms were… severe headaches, head congestion, colds, low-grade fever, and about 24 hours after [the treatment], it was basically gone. I think [monoclonals] are a great opportunity for everybody to know about whether you were vaccinated or not.” Continue reading

Within two hours, I had an appointment to receive the monoclonal antibodies for the next day. I hadn’t heard a whole lot about it, but I went and got the infusion. When I got home that afternoon, my taste came back. The achiness, and all of that went away. We’ve been blessed by all this effort. There’s people here that don’t have insurance, and with the state sites and standing referral, they are going to be able to get this help.” Continue reading

This is a neighborhood resident who listed this note on behalf of her friend and very much worth repeating given our presence in Afghanistan. We love and pray for all our military service men and women.

Afghanistan. 14 hr ago, Sent Saturday the 28 th 11:33 AM A dear friend of mine on here wants me to pass a message along. She is posting her own updates, but I will keep her name hidden for OPSEC reasons on my part. Her son is a Master Gunnery Sergeant in Afghanistan. Part of the just 2.5K troops left there. He helped oversee the removal of vital equipment and technology in the past month. This man is literally crying about how the military is being portrayed in the news. He wants everyone to know that they got most of everything out in time. The items that the Taliban have are things given to the Afghan Army. His unit/battalion made sure that everything truly useful was rendered absolutely useless to the Taliban. He is angry and sad that the military on ground is being portrayed as useless. He would also like the world to know that in the past 3 days, they have evacuated around 28K people and that he is proud to stay behind until everyone is out of there.
