As I write this on a cloudy, but beautiful, day outside at the back patio of Linnaea’s Cafe on a Monday afternoon, listening to one of my go-to current affairs broadcast, Deadline: White House, it pains me when I am listening to what’s been happening over the two months since Prisdent Trump has returned to the White House, and the actions affecting ordinary people here in the U.S.

Continuation, especially after a long period quiet, can take a minute. Searching for clever words, I’m resigning to let the words be the words; my words, so shall it be. Online, my presence has been on the down low. Save for my personal Instagram (@velanchedj). I do use it whenever I have something to share; I do not scroll on it, past the first post of two that is atop its interface.
