I spent most of the week dealing with my cold. But you know how one day you wake up and you can tell you've turned the corner? Yep that happened on Thursday. I had more energy and less brain fog. We went to co-op even. I thought you might like to see a photo of my hydrangea with snow on top! We had another snow Tuesday night into Wednesday and it's already all gone. It was pretty though.
This has been a busy news week.
Tulsi Gabbard was confirmed by the Senate and sworn in.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. was also confirmed and sworn in!
Neither nominee needed the VP to come vote and break the tie. Mitch McConnell was the only Republican to vote against either of them.
The Vice President, JD Vance, has been in Europe this past week. I've loved seeing video of him and his family touring Notre Dame. It's so great to have a young families around the White House. Elon Musk's got kids with him everyday, especially little X, Pete Hegseth has 7 kids (including his wife's three from a previous marriage). The Vance's have three. After having DC so full of old politicians its nice to see younger people involved!
Speaking of our Secretary of Defense.
Basically, between Hegseth, Rubio, and Vance all being in Europe this week, the American's have put Europe on notice. "There's a new sheriff in town, " to quote JD Vance.
Here is a snippet of an excellent commentary on what went on in Europe this week.
I told you we were coming to save Europe. Yesterday, Politico ran a shocking story headlined, “Vance brings a wrecking ball to diplomatic gathering in Munich.” It described Vice-President Wrecking Ball’s speech yesterday at the annual Munich Security Conference, which is like Davos for European security policy. My first thought was, the headline should have been, “United States Has a Vice President Who Can Give a Coherent Speech.” I mean, Vance didn’t even mention the passage of time once.
The attendees probably expected something different from last year’s speech by Kamala Harris, ahem, but I bet they never expected this. Instead of the usual dish of asiatic fearmongering—Russia, Russia, Russia, with a side of China, China, China—Vance flipped the script and served them something they’d never tasted: bitter truth.
Vance informed the shocked EU delegates, “the threat that I worry the most about vis-à-vis Europe is not Russia, it’s not China, it’s not any other external actor. What I worry about most is the threat from within.”
You could practically hear the shocked and deeply offended gasps when he explicitly named Europe’s elites as the real security risk—not Putin, not Xi, but the unelected bureaucrats, the censors, the election tamperers, and the speech police inside their own governments.

Every day something exciting is happening. Big changes are underway!
I believe Trump doesn't want to control and run Gaza. What he wants in countries like Jordan (the king visited this week), and Egypt to step in. Take in the Palestinians and also pay to rebuild. If the Arab States won't do it, then perhaps we will.

Some people have been trying to scare women into thinking that if they are married they won't be able to vote ever again!
The Girl Named Blake broke it down this week.
I think that all that would need to be done is to show documentation of the legal change to your name, as an example a marriage license.
Republicans do not want a huge voting block to never vote for them again!
The left is floundering and desperate. This also means they are dangerous. Keep praying.
