Do your research
The Jan. 6 committee is a false committee made up of all Democrats and a couple of RINOs, two in particular. And you’re telling me that this is a fair trial, or whatever they want to call it. It’s a mocked-up, laugh-in-your face type of trial. And people who are paying attention to it, I feel sorry for you. That actually means that you actually believe that the sky is falling. You folks really need to do your research because this is making a mockery of our court system.

Animals
Looks like Starbucks is closing 16 coffee shops, with more in the future. I hope they find the employees at those stores another location for them to work at. I understand they need to close some that are nonprofitable, and also for the safety of the employees and the safety of the community. It’s a shame. This is where our society is heading now. You have poor employees at a window, and if things just don’t go right for that customer, they’ll shoot or injure that employee serving them at a drive-up window. You folks out there that even contemplate this are animals. There’s no other word for you.
Stealing our money
A bankrupt administration is trying to bankrupt America, and if you don’t believe me just listen to Pete Buttigieg. He says that these high prices are going to be a good thing for people who can afford EVs. Well, with these prices, I would ask Mr. Buttigieg, who the heck does he think is going to be able to buy an EV when they’re stealing our money hand-over-fist with inflation?
Stop feeding panhandlers
Stop feeding the panhandlers on the corners in Waukegan. You have folks complaining about the garbage and the litter, but yet you continue to feed these people on the corners. Guess who’s leaving all the garbage behind?
On hold
I agree with the person that called in about Old National and Midwest Bank. I’ve been trying to get into the lobby since July 11. Couldn’t get into either Waukegan banks at all. And on the phone system, you get a waiting time for someone to help you. Today I called and they said they couldn’t help me at all because they had too many people on hold. What is going on with this new bank that took over Midwest. I hope someone can do something about it to help.
For what?
Doctor Fauci supposedly is retiring, making a half-million dollars a year. Do you really think he’s going to retire? I know he won’t retire till the end of Biden’s term, but will this man continue? This man is a photo hog, loves to be the center of attention and continue to get paid the big bucks. And for what? People applaud him for what?
