Every Friday we unite for five minutes. Only five minutes, that's all we get, that's all we have. And then, right where we are, no edits or second thoughts, we publish those words. This week, we write on mend.
As I write this, we, as a country, are very broken.
We are all worried, some for their lives, for their survival, for their families.
Others are more on the edges and outskirts. More about who we are becoming, how far back we have taken this country that promises hope, moving forward, knowing better and doing better.
We have to mend our broken hearts, lives, relationships, and this country we all claim to love so much.
I do not have much else to say on the topic.
I just want to remember that in January of 2026, a woman was killed by an ICE officer.
Another shooting took place by the border control.
We have a President who is asking us not to believe the videos we are watching of the incident.
We also have a President who invaded a country and kidnapped its President for oil.
We have a President who is so unkind, so evil, so malicious, such a narcissist, and half of us love him.
Love what he has done to this country.
We have three more very long, painful, and trying years. We have years of continuing to roll things back for our country's most vulnerable citizens.
This is the time when the future will study us and ask, why didn't anyone help?
And, most importantly, what did you do?
How did you help mend the broken?
