I have been wondering why former First Lady Michelle Obama did not show up for President Jimmy Carter's funeral. She claimed she had a “previous engagement.” Sorry, that excuse doesn't fly – at least not with me.
I'm sure many other Americans – who are also paying close attention to what will happen in the next days leading up to President Trump's inauguration – would agree that Michelle's excuse of having a schedule conflict (hot yoga class?) in Hawaii at one of the Obamas’ fabulous estates bought partially with the proceeds from her best-selling autobiography “Becoming” (I haven’t read it as I believe it would have made me angry), was at best feeble.
It takes a lot to make me angry. But not when it comes to Michelle Obama. It started when she admitted that “for the first time” in her “adult lifetime,” she was “really proud” of her country, after her husband became president. My first reaction was, “Michelle, in that case, maybe you wish your ancestors should have gone back to Africa as soon as they were freed from slavery.”
Michelle started an organic vegetable garden on the White House grounds. Other than that, I can't recall anything she contributed to the U.S. during her eight years as First Lady. Being the daughter of a teacher and the first African-American First Lady, Michelle could have sent her two daughters to local D.C. schools. That decision would have helped restore one of the worst and most dangerous school systems in the country.
Or, she could have used her unique power as First Lady to "clean up" her native Chicago, which has become the most dangerous city (even after New York) in the country. Instead, Michelle gave very well-remunerated speeches at universities, regurgitating her woke values at naive, uneducated, college students, who would use their new female idol (at least she displaced Hillary for many of those invitations) to take to the streets, getting all who didn't agree with them, including faculty, canceled and/or fired.
Melania did show up at President Carter's funeral. She probably made it clear that she did not want to sit next to Jill Biden, Hillary Clinton or Michelle, America's own Lady Macbeths.
“Dr.” Jill’s Four Years at the Helm
Let's admit that Jill was running the country these past four years and gave a nod to raiding Melania's underwear drawer, in addition to convincing Joe to run for president again. Did she also think getting out of Afghanistan the way we did was okay?
I haven't forgotten that “brilliant” unelected Hillary hired 200 people to set up a U.S. national health service and utterly failed. We should be happy for that failure. When I get a chance, I shall write about having to wait on my sofa for two days – stuffed with morphine – to get a place in my local French hospital for setting a broken wrist by a surgeon who called me la petite Américaine, si sensible, when I screamed in pain.
French National Health Service doesn't work, nor does the British, or any other country's socialized medicine. Why was Bill Clinton looking pretty good at Carter's funeral after being hospitalized in one of New York's best private hospitals? Because he was able to choose the hospital and his own doctors with their recommended treatment.
Then there's Roselyn Carter's attendance at Jimmy's cabinet meetings – there just to be sure his staff was doing her bidding. The recently deceased President Carter even admitted in an interview that he didn't want to run for a second term, “but Roselyn did.”
An Intelligent and Gorgeous First Lady
One need not have read “Melania,” our soon-to-be First Lady's best-selling autobiography, to realize that we shall have an intelligent and accomplished First Lady in the White House once again (for Carter's funeral, Melania chose a simple black dress with an elegant white collar and gathered her gorgeous mane in a discreet neat bun).
“Melania” devotes many words about working since the age of 16, first as a model for her beloved mother's own dress designs, and then becoming a top model through hard work. Her ability to distinguish between phonies and professionals in the complex and often dangerous-to-young-women fashion world also served her well.
The fact that Anna Wintour asked her to pose for a Vogue cover when she was pregnant with Barron reveals how short-sighted, hypocritical, and brainwashed the national media has been when covering Melania as First Lady. The jacket she wore with “I Don't Care” written on the back as she climbed aboard Air Force One after visiting illegal and unaccompanied minors on our southern border was more a message to her petty critics (Vogue's editor?) than a fashion statement. Clever!
Melania also reveals her desire to have become an architect and how she juggled her studies while modeling. She is proud to be an organized woman with a very complicated life. Good for her to be proud of herself. Melania will not be sleepwalking down the corridors of the White House, rubbing her hands while uttering “Out, Out Spot,” wracked with the guilt she should feel for deceiving her family and the American public. Melania knows what “Be your Best” means. I hope she takes up that First Lady cause again.
I found the best chapters in “Melania” were those dealing with motherhood and the recent death of her beloved mother. The 46 pages of photos (most never seen before) add much to a sincere and thoughtful First Lady's tale.

"Gavin Newsom says California is the model for America. It's not. It's a recipe for destroying it. California's corruption works in 2 ways. First, through race and gender DEI quotas that sacrifice safety and ethics. Second, through a kickback system that increases homelessness."

I’m disgusted, aren’t we democracy ?wasn’t the whole point that the majority rules,that if you you don’t necessarily agree with the voted in majority, at least you agree in the democracy and that we would all benefit from getting behind whoever won the vote because in the end, aren’t we all Americans wanting the same thing? This childish attitude I’m gonna take my ball and go home if I don’t get my way is so disheartening in our political leaders.!
