What Now?

WHAT CAN WE DO?      President elect Trump takes over our government on January 20th. Smarter people than I have told you what to expect.

What If – Part XIV – The Final Chapter

The Final Chapter GOOD v EVIL      Political promises are generally just that. Promises.  In 1928 Hoover promised… “A chicken in every pot and two cars in every garage”.  We are facing something entirely different. It’s one of the true things Justice Alito has said.

What If – Part X – Religion

What If – Part III – Immigration

WHAT IF – Part III – IMMIGRATION What may happen in a Trump second term?

What If – Part II – Womens’ Rights
