The farce of an FBI investigation into Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual assault allegations against then-U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was quickly over. Give me a break. Did Republicans really think we were that stupid that we thought this was a legitimate investigation? They didn’t even question Ford or any of her witnesses.

I saw where all these liberals were down in Chicago marching because they don’t like U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. These are the same people who had no problem when then-President Barack Obama put liberal justices on the Supreme Court who have no problem with taking away your property rights. These are the liberals that would vote for letting the government run and do everything for us.

What’s this society coming to? I read another article about a poor little dog that was abused, not groomed, had horrible sores all over his body and was traumatized. What’s wrong with these people? How can you hurt a harmless animal? There have been so many stories lately of abuse to animals. Why is society so sick that it gets joy out of hurting animals that only want to love you? Often an animal is more companionship than a human. If you don’t want your animal, don’t abuse it or hurt it. Give it up. Have a heart. Don’t hurt animals.

How come when disasters such as hurricanes, floods or tornadoes strike the U.S., nobody comes to our aid? I don’t see any country sending food or water to Florida after Hurricane Michael but we do it. We send everything to every place. Why?
