The word of the year is here!

I don't know about you but this week has been quite a year. While it's not official yes, the word of the year is Fafo. You mostly see it used in caps: FAFO.
Let me show you one example. Heather Cox Richardson writes: And then there is this, a big FAFO to the Hispanic/Latin Community. it's still better than what it said originally: Go Home. I could go on, but Bob covered much of it yesterday. Speaking of Bob, we are now in a same-sex marriage.
Sadly, FAFO is going to affect all of us. That said, don't give up. Never give up.

Let me show you one example. Heather Cox Richardson writes:
The country’s largest police union, the Fraternal Order of Police, has spoken out against the pardons, as has the International Association of Chiefs of Police. The Wall Street Journal editorial board wrote: “Law and order? Back the blue? What happened to that [Republican Party]?” “What happened [on January 6, 2021] is a stain on Mr. Trump’s legacy,” it wrote. “By setting free the cop beaters, the President adds another.”
Mark Jacob of Stop the Presses commented: “Republicans—the Jailbreak Party.” (snip)
As Josh Funk reported in the Associated Press, Trump also fired the head of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), responsible for keeping the nation’s transportation systems safe. He also fired all the members of the Aviation Security Advisory Committee, mandated by Congress after the 1988 bombing of PanAm flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, to review safety in airports and airlines.
Sadly, FAFO is going to affect all of us. That said, don't give up. Never give up.
