1. A comment made, that needs permission of SurvivalBlog, as it’s slightly political.
   The Fall of Communism in the USSR (Russia) was a Blessing for America. … Ronald Reagan recognized the crumbling foundation of Communism in the USSR (Russia), before many other people; including the Fake News of his time period.

   In the 1950s, many towns installed ‘Warning Sirens for a Nuclear Attack’ is on the way; the ‘missiles will land in 15 minutes.’ … The sirens are used now as general civil defense/warning sirens, and are still loud enough to wake the dead.

   The powers of the US President has developed and increased over the years. The Founding Fathers wanted a decentralized Government with limited powers for the President of America.

   Joe Biden ~ Wikipedia
   ‘Brain Surgeries’
   “In 1988, Biden suffered two brain aneurysms, one on the right side and one on the left. Each required surgery with high risk of long-term impact on brain functionality. In February 1988, after suffering from several episodes of increasingly severe neck pain, Biden was taken by long-distance ambulance to Walter Reed Army Medical Center and given lifesaving surgery to correct an intracranial berry aneurysm that had begun leaking. While recuperating, he suffered a pulmonary embolism, a major complication.

   Another operation to repair a second aneurysm, which had caused no symptoms but was at risk of bursting, was performed in May 1988. The hospitalization and recovery kept Biden from his duties in the Senate for seven months.

   In retrospect, Biden’s family came to believe the early end to his presidential campaign had been a blessing in disguise, for had he still been campaigning in 1988, he might well not have stopped to seek medical attention and the condition might have become unsurvivable. In 2013, Biden said, “they take a saw and they cut your head off” and “they literally had to take the top of my head off.” He also said he was told he would have less than a 50% chance of full recovery.”

2. If you need a few laughs here are a few Reagan quotes from:

   https://www.brainyquote.com/authors/ronald-reagan-quotes

   They have quotes of other presidents also.

   How do you tell a communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

   Some people wonder all their lives if they’ve made a difference. The Marines don’t have that problem.

   The most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government and I’m here to help.

   No matter what time it is, wake me, even if it’s in the middle of a Cabinet meeting.

   The taxpayer – that’s someone who works for the federal government but doesn’t have to take the civil service examination.

   Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the democrats believe every day is April 15

   Thomas Jefferson once said, ‘We should never judge a president by his age, only by his works.’ And ever since he told me that, I stopped worrying.
