Blinken is a such a liar... Why do they even bother talking to him? But I guess in one way, this is good. He is at least exposed.

. . . . . . Let's All think avout How we each can make the world better, starting around us each
' little ' day . . . . . . . These are BIG Days for the world. Whether we just ' think ' of how we can make the world better, and then we in turn begin to
' Do ' what we can . . . . . . . or we pray, and do what we can . . . . . . . Either modality, Either Avenue. *Neither ' way ' makes any person ' better ' than another . . . And no person is ' better ' than another. We each and all have some good days and some bad days . . . . . .
*Let's each think a Little / or pray a Little . . . and 'do' a Little. . . Let's see what can happen . . . . . . 🙏 💬 🤲 🗯🙏💭✌️❤ 🤝💝🖖

Sometimes, not always, I laugh at our own self righteous Andrea Mitchell. With the world in utter chaos along with a specter of WWIII a nuclear war, she asked the Secretary of State, as a first question, about a deserter with absolutely no consequences whatsoever. Have Andrea rested well lately?
