On today's Daily Daily Caller Podcast, we discuss President Donald Trump's plan for an Oval Office address to the nation on the situation on the southern border and the reaction from Democrats, both elected and in the media, to it. We also cover Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg missing her first day of work since having surgery for lung cancer, how Chicago is ripping off its citizens, and much more.
As Trump prepares to address the nation, Democrats are demanding equal time to give their "side" of the issue. This is not normal. The State of the Union has an official response, not a presidential address to the nation. But liberals are so afraid of the possibility of the president making an effective case to the country that they want to be able to undo the damage immediately. CNN's Don Lemon wondered if the address should run only on a delay, so the media could edit out lies.
Supreme Court Justice Darth Vader Ginsburg missed her first day of oral arguments in her 25 years on the court, which has liberals in a tizzy. If she were to leave the court and be replaced by another Trump appointee, expect all hell to break loose. Leftists would not take replacing a liberal hero with a justice that supports the Constitution.
Progressive Chicago is ripping off its citizens by seizing their cars over unpaid parking tickets. When the people who couldn't afford to pay their tickets can't afford to pay their impound fees, the city sells the cars and keeps the money. The Chicagoans still owe whatever they owe on their car note and they owe the city for the tickets, the towing, and the impound fee. Progressive indeed.
