SORRY. I’M NOT BUYING IT.

  Is there really any reason to believe the FBI when it says one of its favorite informers lied about being told by people with Burisma that Joe and Hunter Biden demanded $5 million each for protection?

MAYBE IT’S GOING TO TAKE A STRETCHER

IT’S NOT THE GUNS

  In Kansas City it was stupid teenage boys who somehow -illegally-got a hold of guns and then were stupid enough to get into a gunfight in the middle of a crowd of hundreds of thousands of people. Who sold or gave them the guns?  Will we ever see that person identified and punished? Don’t count on it. 

   Here’s the headline from a guy who’s been studying U.S. military readiness for over 10 years: “Our Military Is Weak. You Should Be Scared.” When you hear what he’s found, you might be.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY... OR NOT

 Fewer and fewer people are celebrating Valentines Day. Young people have especially begun to ignore it, mostly because young people are less and less interested in committed relationships. Could it be the video games?

HE SAID IT OUT LOUD

  Rasmussen polling and the Heartland Institute did a study based on polls taken of 2020 voters who voted by mail and admitted to committing fraud.

 IT COULD’VE BEEN JOY BEHAR

  But it wasn’t. One of her cohosts on what may be the dumbest TV show in American history beat her out for AM 1250 The Answer Jerk of the Week.

   Many - maybe most- in the media embarrassed themselves trying to tell people not to believe what their lying eyes told them about Joe Biden’s performance Thursday night and what an independent counsel told everybody about Joe’s addled mind. Media expert Jeff McCall was not surprised. 

   Remember Fani Willis? She’s the District Attorney for Fulton County, Georgia and she’s trying to put Donald Trump in prison. Fani’s  done a really good job of getting involved with what Charles Lipson, professor emeritus for political science at Chicago University, says qualifies as a perfect American scandal.
