The focus is not on what matters to folks.
Now here comes #AndyBarr
Picked by the president and MAGA to the core.
There is a another choice.

Our people are tired of being afraid, of hiding in bathrooms and corridors, waiting for the worst. So today, we celebrate life, our flag, our city, and our freedom.
These are our people, who live and work under constant threat of death, the never-ending drone buzz, and regular explosions.

A shithole nation isn’t a poor country that can’t feed its children. It’s a rich country that refuses to do so.
