"ANN ALTHOUSE: “I wish President Biden would support investigating the security of the mechanisms of American elections instead of demonizing the millions of people who feel skeptical.
"Why all the intensity against American citizens? 

It’s not going to decrease skepticism.

Wind energy cannot keep up with the demands of the modern world.
But leftists and globalists don’t care about the truth.
