How do you feel about America, our experiment
in Democracy, and where we stand as a nation as we celebrate the 250th
Year of America’s Founding? Are we going in the right direction?
Why did we bomb Iran? Regime change? Stop The Bomb? “They
were ready to hit us?’ How do our strikes help Iran’s people? Is it in our best
interests, or did we create more problems? How will Military action alone
change the evil objectives of a hated, rogue nation of 93M, four times the size
of California, who has been an enemy of America and Israel for decades? Why do
this now?
How much did Israel influence Trump’s action? Why was
getting this involved right for us?
We decimated Iran’s leadership. How better off are we if
Iran is in chaos with no Leader? Can War lead to an Iran more aligned with America’s
interests? Must we now “nation build” to control Iran’s future? How can we assure
Iran won’t continue evil objectives—become even more oppressive to its people
and even more anti-American? Might they believe they must now seek The Bomb for
self-preservation? Just how does America help Iranians “take back their
country”?
How high a priority was launching a War of Choice, across
the ocean, that presented no immediate risk? Did the potential risk to our
homeland warrant going to War? Do most Americans feel it’s OK to allow our
President to make War decisions like this without Congressional buy-in?
What message did we send our allies and adversaries? Many
nations do bad things. Consider North Korea. Does America need to police
the world? Are we seen now as a rogue nation? What opportunities does our action
present for our adversaries—especially Putin and China? Russia: “Trump has
untied our hands, Now, we can secure our safety”. Is that
view in our best interests?
What might a “friendly take-over” of Cuba look like? Do
we see that as important?
Will China risk moving on Taiwan, believing America is
now preoccupied more with Iran?
After deposing the Clintons regarding Epstein, will
the House depose Trump? If not, will America care? Will we move on,
disregard charges of DOJ cover-up, and grow disinterested in the Epstein Files?
Will victims ever see something that looks like Justice? What happens next?
Paramount is likely to take over Warner Bros.
Discovery’s studio and streaming business. What happens when CNN is
merged with CBS News? Paramount is run by the Ellison family, friendly to
Trump. CBS News is already moving more to the Right. Keep in mind what happened
to objectivity when Murdoch bought FOX. Will CBS/CNN become Right-Wing opinion,
like FOX?
Let’s look at results of the Texas Primary - Did
Democrats pick a firebrand, like Crockett? Or a Moderate Centrist like Talarico?
Paxton was leading Sen. Cornyn.
Republicans feared a Paxton/Talarico race as very expensive. What did we learn
that might affect the Mid-Terms?
How does Trump’s often combative approach with anyone
who differs with him affect Republicans running in November? Is he
concerned about polls that show his key polices are not well received by voters?
Trump’s Approval is 40% driven by Prices, Immigration, Tariffs, War.
How effective are local Democrats in mostly hammering
Trump in their campaign ads?
What Important News came out of the State of the
Union? What minds might have been changed? R’s loved it. D’s hated it. How was it received
by Independents? Trump’s Approval with Independents is 26%. 11% drop in
viewership vs. Trump’s 2025 speech. What’s your take on how Democrats reacted
in the Chamber? Not standing? The shout-outs? The sign bearer? What about “the
Democrat Response” by Gov. Spanberger? What were your “cringe moments?
How do you view the possibility of life beyond Earth?
What about Obama’s comments?

high-tech world? Or does requiring a
valid U.S. passport or birth certificate to register create an unacceptable
hurdle for too many?
The DHS Shutdown continues. Who do you believe is
winning the political battle?
How useful an idea is Trump’s Board of Peace? Can it
make an important difference?
Will Trump compromise with Dems and change how we
execute Deportation? Would it help Republicans if Trump only targeted bad guys,
not ALL Undocs—as Miller prefers?

Crime is truly on the decrease? Violent crime dropped significantly in

also down, with some metrics falling below pre-pandemic levels to 100-year
lows.
Is eliminating all standards for greenhouse gas
emissions in our best interests? How smart is it to totally disregard the
concerns of scientists vs. moderating how standards apply?
Re: Trans Sports. Do you Agree, or Disagree? Sport
already accommodates biological variation. Hormone therapy can mitigates
advantage so there is no clear evidence of systemic unfairness, and excluding
Trans athletes from women’s sports is inconsistent, unnecessary, and ethically
unjustified.
Secretary of State Rubio: “The United States and
Europe belong together." But has Trump moved away from America’s
historic tight relationship with our European allies.
How important is the TrumpRx pharmacy plan that gives
discounts on popular drugs?
Can Mayor Mamdani effectively help “the poor” by
super-taxing “the rich”? “Replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with
the warmth of collectivism.”
What good comes out of raising skepticism about
Vaccines? RFK jr.’s new “whole foods pyramid” focuses on Proteins and Fats.
(Have you tried Tallow?)
$3 meals? Agriculture Secretary Rollins
claims their revamped food pyramid leaves plenty of room for us to maintain a
healthy diet for as little as $3 a meal. Just eat “a piece of chicken, a piece
of broccoli”, “a corn tortilla” and “one other thing”.
How big an issue is the stealing of federal funds from
public assistance programs in Minnesota? Does it matter that criminals
are mostly Somali?
NY Times: Are there any limits to your power? “My
own morality. My own mind. That’s the only thing that can stop me.”
