April 23, 2020 Skip

Soon after I had talked with Anne Copp, I ran into Ruth and asked if she had time for a quick interview: She not only is ticked that she has to protest to get her Rights back but that the Media has been lying to us (hey, Media, you listenin’?). And she, too, is worried … Read more

Heh! I was not surprised when I got to the State House just a tad before 11am (the Rally has been advertised to start around noon); no one was there.
