Give me a break

This will be my first message and my only message regarding the Will Smith fiasco. There was no need for the face-slapping. They should have handled it like gentlemen, which I thought Will Smith was until what happened. It’s actually a disgrace to humanity. What are you teaching the children that were watching that? Do we not have enough violence in this world? Please give me a break.

One good thing

Ah, the poor fool probably doesn’t like Joe Biden very much, but at least he doesn’t tell you to drink hydroxychloroquine so you can kill yourself. At least he doesn’t tell you that.

Communist Republicans

All American voters, do not forget that five years ago all these Communist Republicans stole a trillion and a half dollars from all of you working people. They stole a trillion and half from all of us working people in this country What did we get for it? Nothing. All we got for it is them trying to take our vote away. The Communist Republicans are trying to take your vote away.

These are the facts

I’m calling in for all of the Biden-bashers. Here are a few facts for you. Since he took office, unemployment is down to 3.6% from 6.3% last January. It’s the fastest decline in unemployment ever. There have been 7.9 million jobs added — the most in any year on record. The U.S. gross domestic product is up 5.7% — double the average for every year since 1976. The deficit is down $1.3 trillion — making it the largest drop ever. In addition, wages are up 5.6%. I would much rather deal with inflation, while all of my other citizens are employed and the economy is doing better than it has ever done under any other president. These are the facts. Look them up.

We will ignore

Hey Trump voters, you do realize that if your man Bone Spur gets in on this next election, they’re probably going to try to investigate Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Hunter Biden and all of that. You do realize when they send out subpoenas, us Democrats, we are going to ignore them just like you are doing to our subpoenas. So don’t bother to send any subpoenas, because we are going to ignore them.

Thanks

I would just like to thank the Waukegan Highway Department for starting work on Grand Avenue. I have been living in this town for quite some time and all of the streets — a lot of the streets — have been repaved. Grand Avenue, Washington and Belvidere between Green Bay and Lewis Avenue, it’s a shame to ride on. Thank you, Anne Taylor for making sure that these streets get some attention.
