From the "it's good to be da king" department - Online headline/story: "Pete Buttigieg brought husband Chasten on military aircraft to attend sporting event in Netherlands * The event was founded by Prince Harry in 2014 * President Biden announced that Buttigieg would lead a presidential delegation, which included lawmakers and fellow administration officials, to the Invictus Games * On April 15 (2022), Buttigieg traveled from Joint Base Andrews to Rotterdam, Netherlands, via "MilAir Flight" before returning two days later on military aircraft, * It remains unclear whether Buttigieg has reimbursed the government for his husband's travel costs." -- Good grief! ... and symbolically, this happened on April 15th - TAX Day - which pretty much flies in the face of working Americans....and for what.. a "photo op" for Mr & Mr Buttigieg with William and Meghan? And while former Prince William may have his name "connotated" as "the Founder", he ain't funding it...To boot, the Buttigiegs flew back on the 17th without actually watching "the Games"which went on through the 22nd.

Online headline: "Disney’s ABC News plagued by death, scandals and public relations nightmares" -- Hmmm... and in La-la-land, his is "the good news"...wait until the ratings come out!

After watching a small group of RINOs hold the Republican Party and conservative voters, I'm going to vacate a principle I advocate often about .. Even though I can't vote in other Districts, I'm going to donate to candidates in the Republican Congressional Primaries running against the current Republican-elects who are not supporting McCarthy.

After Jim Jordan nominated McCarthy in the second round of votes for House Speaker, I was happy... but after a Texas Republican nominated Jim Jordan in the third, Jim Jordan should have asked to be recognized and announced he wanted to withdraw his name from consideration.

With the announcement that Covid-19 having a resurgence in China, perhaps all pharmaceutical companies and brokerage firms should be required to immediately inform Congress and the media as to how much China has in investments in such companies.

Did you see Matt Gaetz of Florida consulting.. scheming... with AOC? Gaetz is now "toast" in my book...

You know, pretty soon, governors of most states may be joining Govs Abbott of TX and DeSantis of FL at busing federally "relocated" illegal aliens to Washington, DC and other major Democrat-run cities... Why should the federal government be allowed to use political agenda to burden individual states' taxpayers with the expenses of it's unconstitutional actions?

Online headline: "Kamala Harris demanding a negative COVID test if new senators want photos with her during ceremony" -- Hmmm...What's Chuckles up to? Sounds like she's setting up a "good excuse" for Democrat Senators to beg off from having to be seen with her.

Online story: "Five-star Brandon Inniss is the highest-rated recruit in a loaded 2023 wide receiver class for Ohio State. * In a recent interview with 247Sports' Steve Wiltfong, Inniss shared that he turned down more lucrative NIL opportunities at other programs in order to play for well-regarded wide receivers coach Brian Hartline and the Buckeyes." -- Hmmm....The NCAA needs to a grip on the chaos created by NIL... I suggest eliminating the "red shirt" policy which adds a year to players eligibility, and limit transfers to one time, plus re-institute the loss of one year of play for transfer players. The NCAA has basically legalized "booster" and "alumni" clubs being able to do publicly what use to be under the table.

 

You know, when I was playing on a NCAA team in the mid-60s, no players could work a paying job. I could not even work for my own family's business!

Online headline: "Award-Winning Actress-Singer Bette Midler Shared Fake News On Texas Governor Abbott" -- I don't think even a muzzle is enough for Bette Meddler! She needs her lips sewn together... This is not her worst "twit".. she inferred Rush Limbaugh was a KKK member during Limbaugh's cancer death watch.. prior to these slurs, she was known as a Disney "Witch"... now she's just a bitch!

Online headline: "Virgin Islands Attorney General Loses Her Job Days After Suing JPMorgan Chase in Connection with the Jeffrey Epstein Probe" -- Coincidence? Vice President Biden went to Ukraine and their Attorney General got fired, and this year Resident Biden went to the Virgin Islands and it's Attorney General gets fired. Coincidence....maybe.... maybe not....

I love that the Democrats are going ballistic about Republican George Santos "lying" in his campaign resume`. In fact, let's scrutinize all elected Congresspersons for moral ethics...starting with Pastor Warnock and Nancy Pelosi.

Online headline: "Sports betting, other legalized gambling could beat long odds after Georgia Legislature shakeup" -- Hmmm... Open legal sports gambling changes games... It chips away at the moral compass of athletes and fans alike...

From the "I had sympathy for McCarthy ... until now..." department - Online headline/story: "McCarthy floats path to Speakership with lower vote threshold * “Democrats have 212 votes. You get 213 votes, and the others don’t say another name, that’s how you can win. You can win with 218. You could win with 222. But if you want to look at how you have to go about doing it,” McCarthy said" -- Good grief! As much as I had hoped for unity among the Republicans to get this Congressional session off to a fast start.. I've just lost my sympathy for McCarthy.. America needs LEADERSHIP ... not a "closed door, boiler room scheme"... I'm still going to work against the "20 Republicans" in their next primary who've locked arms in a blackmail attempt to put their interests over America's needs..

Wow! As miraculous as the survival of the 4 people riding in a Tesla over a 250' drop over a cliff was, now we are learning the driver did it on purpose! It ends up being a "failed" attempt at suicide.. Whatta an "ad" this is for Tesla!

From the "This has to be the worst politically correct description... ever... of an accidental death" department - Online story: "The National Transportation Safety Board released a statement that the “aircraft was parked at the gate with the parking brake set when a ground support personnel was ingested into the engine.” -- "ingested"? I'm gonna regurgitate!

Online YAHOO! headline: "George Santos refuses to answer questions on Capitol Hill amid firestorm over fabricated biography" -- Goo grief! How come YAHOO! hasn't raise objections over Senator Warnock describing himself as a Christian pastor?

Hmmm.. the Biden White House is having an event to "mark" the "Jan 6 attack".. Friday's event will mark a rare moment for Biden to wade into the live issues stoked by the deadly riot by supporters of his Republican predecessor Donald Trump. * Five people, including a police officer, died during or shortly after the incident and more than 140 police officers were injured. The Capitol suffered millions of dollars in damage....

Let's parse this a bit:

Per Dr. Francisco Diaz’s official determinations:

 

Ashli Babbitt, 35, died from a gunshot wound to her left shoulder

Roseanne Boyland, 34, died of acute amphetamine intoxication

Kevin Greeson, 55, died of hypertensive atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

Benjamin Phillips, 50, died of hypertensive atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

Brian Sicknick, 42, died of natural cause following a stroke.

Hmmm.... looks like the only death actually linked to the "Jan 6 Event" was Ashli Babbitt, and unarmed female American citizen who was gunned down by Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd who has never been held responsible for visually observable "excessive force".

Hmmm... a rather puzzling headline: "Alyssa Milano says Nioxin shampoo 'helped tremendously' with hair loss — and it's on sale!" -- Excuse me.. but who wants HELP in losing hair?
