After watching Lucy for a week, she came home crying, and that made me angry in a way I hadn’t felt in a long time. Mrs. Carpenter, our arrogant neighbor, had declined to give Lucy money, dismissing it as a “life lesson.” I was determined to set things right, so I came up with a scheme to make sure Mrs. Carpenter had her own lesson. With tears streaming down her cheeks, Lucy staggered through the front door. Alarms went off at the sight of her crying, something she did not often do.

My heart fell when I saw how completely defeated my normally calm daughter appeared.”Lucy?” I hurried over and put my hands on her shaky shoulders. “What took place?” She wiped away her tears and shook her head at first, unable to say anything. I helped her to the couch so she could collect herself. At last, she let forth a tremulous whisper. “Mom, she refused to pay me.”Who wouldn’t give you money? I inquired, perceiving the direction this was going. “Mrs. Carpenter,” Lucy cried with a fresh tear in her eye. She claimed that it was a “life lesson” and that I ought to have received it in writing. She also didn’t give me any money.My heart raced. “That’s what she said?”
Trump declared his support for Gov. Abbott of Texas, He Calls On States To Help
In a series of posts on his Truth Social social media pIatform, former President Donald Trump declared his support for Gov. Abbott of Texas as Abbott’s Texas defies the federal government and defends its border, in some cases by excluding federal officials to keep them from processing migrants or cutting barbed wire border barriers.
Trump also called on the states to provide support for Gov. Abbot.
In the first post, Trump declared that he and his Administration had acted to strongIy defend the border, much in contrast to how it has remained shockingly porous under Biden. Commenting on that, he wrote, When I was President, we had the most secure Border in History.
Joe Biden has surrendered our Border, and is aiding and abetting a massive Invasion of millions of IllegaI Migrants into the United States.
Continuing, the former president called out President Biden for focusing on trying to restrain Gov. Abbott rather than trying to staunch the flow of illegaI immigrants across the border.
Doing so, he wrote, Instead of fighting to protect our Country from this onslaught, Biden is, unbelievably, fighting to tie the hands of Governor Abbott and the State of Texas, so that the Invasion continues unchecked.
