This week, we dive into the Texas cold snap and related power issues, and why it's not too surprising that something like this happened. We also talk about the death of Rush Limbaugh and a school board that inadvertently got itself into some hot water.

Inflation

After a one-week hiatus, I am back to talk about stupid COVID masks risk assessments, Fauci e-mails, and a Fauci "prediction" that, turns out, wasn't much of a stretch when put into context.

More COVID Craziness

I'm talking about money on this Memorial Day weekend, including how California is using cash incentives for COVID vaccinations as well as President Biden's first budget proposal. I also talk about the origin of Memorial Day, how Chick-fil-A observes Memorial Day, an unlikely Presidential candidate, an eye-opening unborn child bill from Pennsylvania, and some talk about the media.

Money Talk

I was a day late with this episode, but it's only temporary.  I get into the latest Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but more importantly, why the ceasefire really means almost nothing. I also talk about the disappointment police reformists have in body-worn cameras, Trump's database claim, Biden's vaccine "warning", the PA governor getting his emergency powers watered down, and the continued implosion of the GOP, this time over the January 6 Commission.
