My family and I spent this last Fourth of July in Colorado. I was amazed we didn’t witness any illegal fireworks. Everyone in the area went to see the firework show put on by the city. While watching, we thought of all the dangerous illegal fireworks set off every Fourth of July back home. Our city should invest time in setting up a fireworks show to take the danger out of a much enjoyed family holiday.

I watched Jon Stewart give emotional testimony to a House subcommittee for medical care for the 9/11 responders who are dying from the effects of breathing toxic dust from the destroyed World Trade Center. How many years does it take to care for Americans? Today I read where Mitch McConnell said he hadn’t thought about this in a long time. They did cut taxes for rich folks; he had no trouble thinking about that.
We know that those terrorists were Saudis, but Trump says they’re good people because they buy his condos. Saudi Arabia was his first state visit as president and now we are giving Saudi Arabia nuclear technology and letting Raytheon build nuclear weaponry there.
