The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Directory Mandy Cohen has been on air lately ranting and raving about masking and jabbing...yes, folks, it's that time of year to get your daily dose of stupid from these sick, evil people who I refer to as some of the worst humans on earth. They are the same humans who advocated for masking 2, 3 and 4-year old children on a daily basis. This made the United State of America the ONLY first-world country on the planet to do so. Repeat after me: they...

It seems that every day a new disclosure is admitted or revealed or published in some fashion that destroys the narrative put forth by "official" channels in the government and media in regards to the COVID-19 pandemic. This is true in the area of facemasks and "face coverings" which is such a laughable phrase it makes my head hurt. A study funded by the Norwegian Institute for Public Health showed that mask use increased the risk of infection rather than decrease risk. Researchers analyzed data collected from 3,209 people who were studied...
Economic news has progressively gotten worse over the past three years. What's most difficult at the present time is that hope and relief just do not seem to be on the horizon with interest rates as high as they are now and personal / family debt growing to extraordinary levels. Since January of 2021, just getting by in the United States has gotten tougher and tougher. The latest news on Thanksgiving dinner costs is just one more kick in the gut. Here's a summary of price increases in the past...

I weep for humanity. Parents!!! Would you be so kind as to stop raising complete morons for children.

Altogether, a total of 34 of these little brats were arrested by law enforcement personnel. You can bet they will not be properly punished and will not learn their lesson and will continue to live an...

Kamala Harris continues to prove she is one of the biggest clowns in Washington, D.C. There was no bigger proof of that than the latest stunt she pulled off on Thanksgiving. For a Thanksgiving Day post on her official Vice President of the United States Twitter account, Harris posted what was a genuinely warm-hearted picture of her with her husband in their kitchen. They happened to be standing next to a gas stove. They wag their fingers at Americans who have gas stoves...yet there's one sitting...

Savannah Finken, another junior, played the role of Wednesday Addams. The role of Pugsley was played by junior Kora...
Another day, another stabbing in the New York City subway system. The Big Apple has always had crime, but under blue leadership it's gotten much, much worse. We can poke fun at politicians and decry their abysmal leadership, but at the end of the day it's a giant tragedy how wrong-headed policies over the years have gotten us to this point. In a nutshell: the inmates are running the asylum in big cities across America. The attached video here spells it all out....
