44. When I had started working for my HHS agency in the '80s
Mon Apr 14, 2025, 09:16 AM
Monday

there was still a lot of forms, letter heads, and other documents that referenced "HEW" (since it was broken up by Carter in '79).

They want to control ALL of the information and education and are going full force in a "now or never" endeavor.

It's right out of "1984" - "He who controls the past, controls the future"

That is why they are trying to erase and then completely re-write the past history of this country.

And Chaffetz was a nasty PITA like Issa & Nunes. Gowdy was too but seemed to have softened a tiny bit like Jeff Flake, when going out the door.
