Val de Briey. Virginia Fox, native of Briey, gives news from the USA

Virginia Fox had come to the Republican Lorrain agency in Briey. It was in April 2018. She was following us via our RL Briey-Jarny Facebook page and our website. Virginia is a schooling on the benches of Jean-Zay in Jarny, before going to Paris to enroll in college. “There I got the virus. The English virus, ”she recalls. The love of this language led Virginia to cross the Atlantic to work there. And build his life there thirty years ago. “I left, like that, with two suitcases. ”Thinking of the American dream. Come true for her: Virginia, a translator, got married to an American, Mr. Fox. Their daughter had a baby born on June 6, D-Day! Her name is Mirabelle. Beautiful tribute to its origins in Lorraine.

At the time, “we were far from suspecting that democracy in America was going to be endangered! The ex-Briotine cuts a suit for Trump. “A narcissistic president, in awe of the last dictators of this world and like them, advocating the cult of personality while mocking the needs of the people and the planet, in front of fans dumbfounded and hypnotized by his deluge of fake news . But from January 20, “Democrats will have the White House, as well as a majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate.” The violence on the Capitol sounded the death knell for the Republican Party, which was going to have to reinvent itself from scratch. “

That said, the states are organizing themselves at full speed and Colorado has just started immunizing all people aged 70 and over, starting January 11 and it should take 2 months. From March it will be the turn of all people over 60 and from May it will be the turn of the entire remaining population. ”

Joe Biden has promised to vaccinate 100 million people every 100 days! So by April, my husband and I should be against the Covid… ”
