I grew up in a little town in northern Iowa. About 3,100 people lived there then.

It was a different time.

Both sides of my family had lived in my hometown, or on farms a few miles out, for more than one hundred years.
My grandpa had a business on Main Street that my dad took over when grandpa got sick.

I knew nearly everybody.

There were no “helicopter parents” then and the only teenagers who had cars were older boys who bought them used and beat-up and liked to tinker under the hood.

Trump has w/drawn from the Open Skies Treaty, which allows 35 nations to conduct aerial surveillance over member states’ territories to collect military intelligence data. This week, the DOD decided to sell the US overflight aircraft; but DOD claims no intent to knee-cap Biden. Image
Trump has recklessly w/drawn US troops from Afghanistan and closed US bases. The Taliban, in an ever-closer partnership with ISIS, is gobbling up territory the US abandoned. Trump defies US military leaders and throws away gains made w/sacrifices--a shocking dereliction of duty. Image

Analysts have warned that a precipitous US withdrawal will further destabilize Afghanistan. The Taliban called Trump’s pullout announcement, which came in a tweet, “a very positive step.” Violence in Afghanistan has escalated dramatically in recent months. Taliban is to blame.
