Thoughts for the day
A very nice spring day with a little
wind.
I got an email that both my Federal
and State taxes were accepted by IRS. Now just to wait for the checks. Yea!
My Social Security check was still $43
for the month. I’ll give it one more month to give me the correct amount.
It’s hard to understand the new 25% tariff
on foreign cars and/or foreign parts that goes into effect Apr 3. This could
lead to several million new cars not being purchased. Welcome Trump’s Make America
Great.
Yesterday there was a protest of about
300 at City Hall here in Flagstaff. They were asking Where was Eli Cain, our
Representative in the Congress. He hasn’t been back to Flagstaff since the election,
hasn’t had any town halls, and just gives form letter responses to emails. It
is a good question that still hasn’t been answered.
Four US Military are missing in
Lithuania where their vehicle got stuck in water and mud. The military is
looking for them. Odd, when President Trump was asked yesterday, he said he
didn’t know about it. That’s odd because protocol demands that the President in
kept in the loop of all missing US citizens in foreign countries. I guess Pete
was too busy on Signal to remember to inform the President, an important part
of his job.
