I, for one, bristle at the suggestion that “individualism” is in itself toxic or a danger to the social fabric. The nature of homo sapiens is individualistic. Every human arrives unique, differing significantly from one’s parents, sibs, and even from like minded peers. Differing brings depth to life, culture and civilization. So I see individuality and “individualism” as the norm, not an aberration.

Trump vs The Deep State, Big Media, the Cancel Culture, and the Socialist Democrat Machine
In 2016 I never would’ve dreamed that I would intentionally vote for Donald Trump, but I knew that I could not vote for and feared the loss of our nation under Hillary Clinton; the woman who famously said it takes a village to raise our children. “Not on my watch.”
Over the past 4-years I watched, read, listened, and reasoned how a man who was a billionaire would put himself and his family through all of the Russia and Ukrainian and impeachment claims; just to name a few of the things 99% of us could not and would not put ourselves through.
I am a people watcher. I am fascinated by the art of “body language “ and use my understanding of it to read whether people are being honest or deceitful. Watching President Trump over the past 4-years I have never, never seen him postured in anyway other than total openness and transparency.
What's Old is New Again
Back in the 1950’s. Before many of us were born, a remnant of WWII still haunted the world. With the amount of European land given to Russia after the war, the Soviet Union threatened to become an economic and nuclear giant in our world. Many, both here and in Europe, flirted with the idea that communism could be as viable as capitalism and maybe even more efficient. They created the Communist Party, USA, a political party to advance their beliefs. There were others that warned communism could only work if the citizens gave up their individualism and personal rights to the state, and as usual when a threat is real or thought to be true, the people take notice.

The Best Defense is a Proactive Offense
“The Best Defense is a Proactive Offense,” What we can do to fortify our immune systems to mitigate CoV19 infection, authored by EJ Ledet
From research I’ve recently read, I believe the CoV19 virus maybe disabling our immune defense mechanism by blocking the body’s zinc transporter molecules, ZIP9 proteins and/or IgG-3/C antibodies . The ZIP nomenclature was adopted from Zip Codes identifying different parts of the body .
Heard It from A Friend - Who Heard It from A Friend --
“Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who, heard it from another you’ve been messing around.”
Gossip, we have all been caught up in its ugly web at sometime. That’s why the beginning of this Reo-Speedwagon song is so catchy. It brings us back to our days in high school or a bad stereotype for women in the 60’s.

Money - Money - Money, MONEY!
This last week we heard about and read about the money that is in this year’s Whatcom County elections. So okay. Let’s focus on the money. It can make a difference. The slicker an ad, the catchier the phrase, the more often you hear it, sways voters. What kind of voters does money sway? The last-minute uninvolved voter. Why is this a big deal? Because as we have often seen in Whatcom County many voters do not actually know the person they vote for.
