Democrats don’t care
The latest display of congressional ineptitude under Nancy Pelosi was spending an entire day trying to censure a congressman for posting a meme on the internet that was, well, a little off. But Democrats post stuff all the time, and never get any violations for it. We have a double standard in our Congress because the Democrats run it. How about Mr. Holder, Loretta Lynch, Maxine Waters, AOC, Brennan who’s a communist who’s on TV right now as an analyst, Comey, McCabe — all should have been censured. Every one of them is a Democrat, that’s why they weren’t. Republicans don’t have time to wait for trivial stuff, that’s why they don’t censure people when they’re in office unless it’s a major deal. But Democrats feel that they must censure Paul Gosar from Arizona because there’s not enough calamity in the Biden administration to address. The Biden administration is a mess, but the Democrats don’t care.
Toil for the benefit of everyone
I’m calling in response to “I don’t buy the story.” They were unhappy about having their taxes pay for someone else’s child to go to preschool. Why in the world would you expect a society to only be able to assist those whose tax dollars are represented by what is of their own interest? I’m single, have no children, have been paying school taxes for elementary, high school and pensions for library employees, city employees, school employees, while I go to work each day and have to make my own contributions to a 401(k) and take care of my own responsibilities in the future. It’s because society demands that we all toil for the benefit of everyone.
Counseling needed
This goes out to “Sheer agony,” referencing cannibalism because of a belief aborted fetuses are injected into their body with a virus vaccination, and also that we should apologize to Nazis. You are in desperate need of extreme psychological counseling.
More Top Picks Drill
Trial is a joke
I laughed about Talk of the County about Rittenhouse not being restrained while next to the judge. I agree with that guy. I mean, since when does a prisoner get to sit behind the judge when he’s looking at a video of the thing? Those two looked like they were related or buddies. That was a joke. And since when does a prisoner get to pick out the jurors? I’ve never seen or heard of that before. This trial is fixed or something. I’ve never seen such a judge in my life. This guy is an idiot. I’m sorry this whole trial is a joke.
Stupid idiots
The ignorant press claims Kyle Rittenhouse shouldn’t have been in Kenosha. They failed to tell us the rioters were from 44 different cities, burning up Kenosha. The Democratic governor didn’t do anything to stop the rioters. The press and the governor look like stupid idiots.
Try to fix a problem
Inflation is at its highest in 30 years. The Democratic Party goes from crisis to crisis. My advice is quit ruining our country. Start using common sense. Try to fix a problem for a change instead of making our life worse.
Icebergs are melting
Let’s all laugh a little. Well, I’ve been told by many grocery stores that there is a shortage of iceberg lettuce, and the iceberg lettuce that is available is high-priced. Well, I know the reason. It’s because of global warming. All the icebergs are melting.
Stand up for truth
Hurray, hurray. Hurray for truth. Rittenhouse was cleared and innocent of all the charges, as it should have been from the beginning. But you have the crazy media and the crazy left-wingers who entice the hatred in people. We need to start standing up for truth and stop listening to all the false propaganda.
Up in smoke
Does anybody else find it interesting that the cities that could use the most boost to their tax bases, such as North Chicago, Waukegan, Zion and Winthrop Harbor, do not have one cannabis dispensary within their city boundaries? However, cities such as Lake Zurich, Mundelein, Highwood, Highland Park and Deerfield, all are being rewarded with the tax dollars that a cannabis dispensary can provide. Why is this? Could it be that it takes money to make money?
