I listen to news. The announcer‘s drone usually puts me to sleep but sometimes it’s interesting, keeps me awake. Annoyed because learned medicine I’ve been taking for years can cause sleeplessness. Checking every darned ptescription.

Seems those issues—homelessness, etc.—are reserved for states, police power, not within federal jurisdiction. Can’t make this happen with a Sharpie.

Yup. They should meet with constituents maybe. Probably afraid to do that. Might get yelled at

He’s only a tenant of WH. American people are the landlords and he didn’t get our permission to destroy our propert. Options for state dinners include: Anderson House (Sons of Cincinnati); Natl Building Museum; Union Station. This Epstein Distraction is shocking but we must juggle more than 1 ball.

No warrants. No probable cause. No IDs. Why should anyone cooperate with any of these alleged law enforcement agents? Claim against federal govt and against any individual who put his hands on me.
