Again, Everything in our Society has come down to Politics - Republican vs Democrat vs Independent Party.

Robert E. Riggs - Committed a Crime - A Crime is a Crime - and Everyone should be Punished for their Criminal Acts - - It has Nothing to do with Political Parties - - There should be No Excuses or Favors - - I am sure that Last Statement - will garner a lot of Frivolous Political Comments - Instead of Focusing on the Issues - A Crime is a Crime and Everyone that Commits a Crime should be Punished - - No Slaps on the Wrist - No Favors - No Excuses - No Political Party Separations of the Laws - Just Pure - Punishment for the Crime and the Criminal Acts.

Stop Feeling Sorry for the Criminals and Start Feeling Sorry for the Victims.

We as Americans have to Stop - Setting our Morale Compasses and Judging Everything based on Politicians - and How they Deal with things.

If you are Dissatisfied with the Political Parties in Office - Use Your Power of Voting - to Help Change Things - - Vote for the Person that Best Alligns with your Political Beliefs and Integrity, Not all Republicans are Bad, Not all Democrats are Bad, and Not all Independents are Bad.

While the Republicans and Democrats - Fail to Get along - their Lack of Working Together in the Senate and Congress - Both on the State and Federal Side - is Costing our Country - our Economic and Social Standards -

Vote for the Person - Not the Party - Vote for the Person's Integrity - Not the Hype.

As we all sit back and Bash each other's Political Parties - - the World is moving Forward - while we sit in Chaos - and Floundering in a Political and Financial Mess - - and No this has been happening across Both - Trumps and Bidens Presidental Terms - -

I am sure Most of the People out their Missed - the News that the United States World Wide Credit Rating just Fell. Just like each of us have a Credit Score - Countries do to.

Yes - The Richest, Most Powerful Country in the World the United States - Credit Rating just Fell - - The United States just Fell from a - AAA Rating to AA+

These are the Countries with a - AAA Rating Now - Germany, Denmark, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Singapore, Australia, and Canada.

The United States is Steadily Deteriorating - Our Debts, High Inflation, and Lack of Direction - Trumps Printing Money - Giving away Money - Stimulus Checks and PPP Loans - Bidens - Trying to Cancel Student Loans - - and our Senate and Congress - is Failing to want to Resolve these Issues and Work across the Aisles to Solve any of our Problems in the United States.

We cannot keep Printing Money to Solve the Countries Problems - we have to make Hard Decisions - We need to Operate in a Budget and Stop Spending More than we Take into Operate this Country - -

So - We have to start looking for Solutions - - and Stop all this Political Rhetoric and Hype and Deal with Real Issues that affect all Americans.

To Sum this Up - - A Crime is a Crime - Punish all those who Commit Crimes - Elect Officials that Support a Fiscally Sound Government, that has Integrity, and Beliefs - and "Let's make America great again" - before it is to late...
