opening statement 2026 pwb0581 Paul bundren

This might be controversial and might lose friends over this but I feel like I need to say something I normally try to stay quiet and keep my mouth shut but there is so much going on this country that is bothering me I could say so much about how I feel about the government but don't really want to be a target for bullies there is so much going on most of the time I try to stay out of it but things are concerning they are going after poor people and minorities taking away our jobs replacing them with ai and robots and raising the price of everything including the rent and kicking us out on the street broke and hungry I feel like the person running this country right now is an evil mad man and not fit and should be removed from power I feel like most politicians only care for themselves and could care less about the rest of the American people especially if you are different or poor or disabled and you are not a straight or white or Christian they send ice to rip away families orphaning and arresting children and invading homes killing citizens and we are losing freedoms they want to try to take over Greenland which would probably end NATO and cause world war 3 no one will trust us or help us ever again after we betrayed our alliances we are all getting played by the government especially the president I feel like we need to wake up the alarms are ringing but does my voice or vote even matter I feel like I am just a dot in this world being swept under the rug you look away just like poverty and homelessness i feel like we are not looking for a solution only adding to the problem who is going to stand up to this It is downright scary and frightening
