It's a little light this week, but heavy on free speaech and the internet.
Last week, leading up to Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address, I probably received close to 3 dozen text messages from various political groups asking me what I think of Biden, if I was going to watch his speech, and who knows what else. I’m really starting to get sick of these messages and with the 2024 election season kicking off, it’s going to get worse.
