A house divided

U.S. Speaker of the House Pelosi has wasted inestimable amounts of time, money and effort(s) chasing a “political poltergeist” with her unfounded impeachment accusations. She should have called Harvey. The monetary loss and time will not be known for decades.

Question: Is the Democratic Party this scared of losing their slots in the upcoming November elections?

Never in the history since the Great 1929 Depression has the United States enjoyed a progressive economy like we citizens have now. A good measuring stick would be: the Dow/Jones Industrial Average Index, which is now in excess of 29,000.

I would like you to reflect on Abraham Lincoln’s June 16, 1858, speech regarding “a house divided against itself cannot stand.” This speech was based upon a biblical quote of Mark 3:25. Today, we are experiencing this political division. Wake Up, America, and beware of an attempt to socialize the United States of America.
