Glad everyone is home. I wonder about Harris though, she said this: "This is an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a president that understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy and strengthening alliances."

I ran a 5K wearing my free Evan T-shirt and supporting journalism, but I’m also a victim of a violent crime at a doctors. My patient Rights violated my Human Rights violated because I was targeted and it started with me being yelled at that. I have no rights. I happen do you been an artist and an activist but I didn’t know that being a whistleblower and corruption in New York City government the payroll system CityTike and 911 tech corruption which was and is tied to The New York pensions into the NYPD + 01 precinct Ed Winski was catering to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwrll’s friend who owned the Mercer hotel at the time and this corrupt police commander was also catering to Henry Buhl who was part of that financial scandal that predated Bernie Madoff….Buhl made the introductions…. Open until I pointed that out that horrible creep was like in the New York Times for all kinds of phony PR my brain so tired but I was to be false arrested in New York City Saturday 4 PM after emergency surgery Friday from violent attack so the point of all of this is, I don’t believe Evan will ever be the same yes he’s a happier person than I am. He has a massive support network, which is going to help him. He got help from the US government too as well become supported through the decompressing of the trauma, where many of us will never come back from it, including the people that are being held prisoner for no good reason other than they were targeted because of religion, sexuality or politics
