Hello Readers,
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Thanking God for giving us food and a nice life.
Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter passed away Nov. 19, but many main newspapers and media just mentioned it, without covering the story. Jimmy Carter was not a successful president, but he was one of the best presidents with a heart for the people. His wife was a trailblazer as First Lady, introducing things that women in that position do today. “Local Talk” staff and I will pray for the soul of Rosalynn Carter and offers condolences to her family, friends, and the citizens of the United States.
The President of China visited San Fransisco, and all the garbage, homeless people and their tents on the side of the road magically disappeared. Even President Biden gave a visit to bow to him. Is it embarrassing. Our Content Editor Kris Seals told me that we should let China’s President visit all our distressed cities. That way they would get cleaned up! What a state the United States is in now compared to only a few years ago. Are we still a superpower or has Biden bent the knee to China?
Israel, the U.S., Qatar and Palestine joined with the United Nations to have a temporary period of peace while Hamas will release 50 hostages and Israel will release 100 Palestinian prisoners. This is a good start. I do not want to favor one country over the other, because both sides are humans who want to live their lives with dignity and peace. Whether it is family or friends, everyone like to be happy.
Congratulations to Quantavia Hilbert for donating and distributing about 350 turkeys and other food to the residents of Orange. I noticed that this is a mayoral candidate who wants to uplift the spirits of the residents. It is a good gesture.
Are the Democrats and the Republicans working for the people? Yes, to some extent, and no to some extent as well. When it comes to their family, friends and themselves, they do not work for the people. They do have some programs to show people that they are working for them.
After heavy rain in Haiti and the highest ever rainfall in the Dominican Republic, there are two dozen people who lost their lives in those nations. Many roads were flooded with water in both countries. I wish everyone the best and wish their nations a speedy recovery.
Australia won the Cricket World Cup final against India. Australia is a sixth time world champion. The next World Cup will be in 2027 and will be hosted by three nations: South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. More and more nations are participating in the Cricket World Cup. So, the ICC has decided the next tournament will be 14 teams rather than 10 teams. A little less than 100 teams participate in the Cricket World Cup and are working hard to qualify.
Have a wonderful week. I’ll talk to you next week.
