Observations from the midterm elections: Charlie “Lost again” Crist, Stacey “Finally conceded” Abrams and Robert Francis “Beato” O’Rourke need to stop running for office!
The “red wave” still beat the “blue wave.
Democracy was not on the ballot but open borders, inflation and education were, which “Tall tales” Biden created!
How did “Beato” and “Finally conceded” get millions of dollars when both of them are losers?
The Republicans are salivating if “Tall tales” runs for reelection with “What are tacos” Jill Biden as his campaign manager!
Kudos to the beautiful Monica De La Cruz, who is was the first Mexican American woman Republican candidate to win in South Texas!
Hmm — Maybe I should run for the Pharr City Commission.

What
now?
So, what now folks? Déjà vu? A trip back in time to the Obama years when an unpopular House speaker and ineffectual vice president presided over a government whose goal was, as announced by the then-House speaker, “to be sure the democratically elected president accomplished nothing for four years”? Is this what the real Americans, not the radical Republicans and Democrat sheep, want for our country now?
Ask yourself if you are willing to accept America as a country in descent because its government is self-absorbed on making war on itself and minorities over internal matters, some of which are no business of government.
Isn’t it time all of us educated, sane, fiscally responsible Americans demand the captains of industry quit gouging Americans for everything from fuel to food and radical progressives stop demanding $15 per hour for sweeping the floor.
Up to you, folks. Another few years of what happened under Obama and Trump and we will be the country on the steps of the U.N. begging for financial help.

Gas prices
addressed
In reference to Mr. Gerald Pahl’s Nov. 15 letter, for many years we used to go to Matamoros to fill our tanks with cheap diesel and gasoline! Why? Mexico has been a major producer for years and we benefited!
Yes, COVID reduced production in this country, but that should have been temporary!
Countries create their own economic spheres of influence that either help or hurt everyone. Those countries that shun drilling for oil and gas because of their green policies pay the price! Joe Biden’s war on fossil fuels affects us and the countries that we export to!
Let me remind everyone of American influence in the world! At our height of production, the ports of Brownsville and Point Isabel let the price of shrimp for the entire world! When you are producing large amounts of any commodity, you influence prices! Abruptly stop production and the world feels it!
Biden definitely affected the rebound of the American oil industry!
If you are a current or past business owner, you are very familiar with the words risk and return on investment! You don’t invest in oil production when the president tells you he plans to put you out of business!
Take out that cash you have stashed in the mattress! After this recent election, if no one can halt the Obama, Biden and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez agenda, get ready to see some vicious price increases! You ain’t seen nothing yet!
