Message From the Chair
What can I say that hasn’t already been said about the awful results of the Presidential Election. The pundits are crawling all over the Democratic Party trying to point fingers at anyone they think might be to blame.
I believe President Biden has done a splendid job at bringing back the economy and pointing it squarely at the middle class. I think Vice President Harris conducted a brilliant campaign. However, we were not able to break through two significant lies. The first was that the economy was terrible, and the second was that we were in the midst of a crime wave fueled by open borders. None of that bore any resemblance to the truth, of course.
I loved what Ben Collins, CEO of The Onion and new owner of InfoWars said, “It’s not just Alex Jones. Those people have an outsize impact in our completely bifurcated and balkanized media environment.” You are probably aware that Jones had to sell his lie machine at auction to settle the lawsuit he lost to Sandy Hook parents. Wouldn’t it be great if Rachel Maddow could purchase Fox News because of all the losses they have incurred to voting machine companies! Don’t bother to take my fantasizing seriously.
Let’s get down to business, shall we?
Kay Wilkins, Chair
