Online, Jan. 6: “Next Vaccine Phase Announced”

Juries are Front Line

My wife, who is 64 years old, has recently been called to Santa Fe for jury duty. While she would like to appear and do her civic duty, it is clearly an unsafe space during the pandemic.
She has called the NM DOH, the NM Department of Epidemiology, and the Governors office in an attempt to be prioritized for the Corona virus vaccine before here 90 day term of jury service starts. She has been rebuffed by all.
It seems crazy to ask people, who are reluctant in the first place to serve, to spend all day in a room with strangers who may be creating a super-spreader site. We have all been asked to stay at home for months, stay away from family and friends, and self-quarantine.
If we are going to call grocery store clerks front-line workers, perhaps more consideration should be given to those who want to fulfill their duty to the State’s courts.

Cover, Jan. 6: “Project Censored”

Overlooked Laptop

The “Top Ten Censored stories” without a single mention of Hunter Biden’s laptop. Make Orwell fiction again.

Online, Jan. 14: “Culture Committee Moves Forward”

No More Talking

Too little too late. This conversation shouldn’t involve Webber (he helped orchestrate [its] destruction after all), we should wait until he’s been voted out! Santa Fe and [its] people deserve better.
