Weekly Update by Mark Armstrong – May 23, 2025

Greetings from Tyler,

Now we’re hearing that Biden couldn’t have stayed out of a wheelchair much longer. Can you imagine what would have happened if they’d have rolled him out in a wheelchair? Thankfully none of that happened.  Now the bad guys are scared to death. They wait in vain for Trump to commit some kind of gaffe so they can start playing offense. But he’s got the brightest minds advising him and he’s probably not going to make that kind of error.

Comey has himself back in the news. He’s the only one who didn’t know what those spelled out shells meant.  He was completely clueless, and he’s got the look on his face to prove it. You and I knew immediately that it was a call to assassinate the President.  But the former head of the F.B.I., he had no idea. Not only that, he was the one to publicize it.  And he was the head of the agency.

If you didn’t see Jake Tapper on the Megan Kelly show you must. He apparently is admitting that he got it wrong, scolding people for even suggesting Joe Biden was unfit. He’s coming clean, and some are suggesting that he’s doing it simply because he stands to make money on his book. Then again, maybe it was the only option to saving his career. We’ll have to see if he succeeded. Megan Kelly played him scolding one of the Trump daughters in law for “poking fun at his stutter.” She explained that she didn’t even know he had a stutter, for all the good it did. He’s saying he’s apologized for all that, and his BOOK!  

Trump wants to shut down the bringing in of terrorists by the big universities. But they’re not having it. One of these issues of defiance is going to end up at the Supreme Court, and they’ve already ruled on some issues, and not exclusively for the President.

I watched the entire Trump visit and speech in Saudi Arabia, but the question I want answered was never asked.  Why don’t you use some of your billions, which came from us buying your oil, to build the so-called Palestinians a beachfront resort?  Instead, Qatar gave us an expensive 747.  Somebody suggested Trump was accepting it personally and immediately regretted the question.

I may never fly again.  At least not until all these crashes are figured out.  Flying commercial may be a hazard to your health.  Every time you turn around there’s another air disaster or close call.  Maybe Trump can get it straightened out, but until he’s turned his attention to it…

And they’re targeting the TSA, saying it might go private. The TSA was introduced after 9-11 and I flipped when I saw it on TV. But having put up with their “rules” for several years, I don’t want to do it again. Please, replace the TSA! We ought to be checking their identities.

The trip, the parts we were shown, was a big success, and I’m sure they’re bowing and scraping all over the world. For decades now, nobody cared what the U.S. thought or was doing, and the world ran amok. Now everybody’s tripping over each other trying to get on Donald Trump’s good side. He’s in the zone, and while I wish I wasn’t a fan, I love the United States.
