The Latest Buzz from Washington!

Well, I never! Have you heard the latest whispers, sweetie? Our President, Donald J. Trump, is apparently gearing up to use that fancy Insurrection Act in Minnesota!

Can you believe it? He’s thinking of sending federal troops right into the state! Heavens to Betsy, what on earth is going on up there that calls for such a ruckus?

It seems some folks are wondering aloud, saying

for people who've kept quiet about all the political hullabaloo. It's truly a spectacle, isn't it?

Grandma's Gobsmacked Reactions!

Now, some people, bless their hearts, they're just soaking up whatever those TV channels, like Fox News, are dishing out. They’re talking about Minnesota like it’s some kind of war zone, a real "actual revolt!"

Remember when they tried to tell us Portland and Seattle were nothing but ashes? Oh, the stories they cooked up!

Can you imagine such nonsense?

My own cousin, poor dear, genuinely believes Portland burned down, even though he lives just a hop, skip, and a jump away! Doesn't he notice there's no smoke in the air, for goodness sake?

Clarifying What Actually Happened (According to Folks Who Live There!)

Oh, sweetie, the truth is, those cities are just fine! People who actually live in places like Portland, Seattle, and Minneapolis are absolutely shocked by what others are being told.

One friend was even in downtown Portland during the protests, shopping and sipping coffee, sending pictures to prove it wasn't burning! And in Seattle, some thought the infamous "CHAZ" had turned the whole place into a Mad Max movie. Well, I never!

Local residents often have to explain that the damage wasn't widespread, and that life goes on quite normally. Minneapolis sports teams are still playing their home games in filled stadiums, for crying out loud!

It just goes to show you, sometimes a little walk outside can clear up a whole lot of made-up drama.

Why Grandma Just Can't Even Today!

Honestly, it makes my head spin! It seems some folks have such an inability to understand scale, like those flat-earthers. They're convinced that cities are in chaos, yet they somehow feel safe stepping outside?

This whole situation, with the propaganda pushing such fantastical stories, it truly ruins relationships. Friendships, even families, are being torn apart by these differing "realities."

Back in my day, if you saw a building standing, it was standing! You didn't need a TV telling you it was gone. It's a soul rot, this paranoia, and it just makes me want to put my feet up with a cup of tea and a good, old-fashioned newspaper that tells the truth. Oh, the modern foolishness!
