I prepared a blog post for today about one of the stories in my book, Traveling Through History: A Collection of Historical Short Stories; however, recent events and revelations must take precedence. To blog today about one of my short stories seemed frivolous. On Thursday, February 5, 2026, Donald Trump offered one of his word …
