Laws apply to everyone
Republicans are spouting crazy talk! They say that all Americans should be scared when we see a former President raided for possible illegal acts. We’ll as an independent I am proud of the FBI and DOJ, it shows no one is above the law! I’m sorry but if you don’t have anything to hide, you’ve been honest and care about your country you don’t plead the fifth or give doubt about a democratic election. All because you’re a spoiled sport that more American citizens voted for the other guy. Just because I mailed in my vote doesn’t make it any less valid. No one but no one is above the law! It just seems to me those people who are saying the raid and investigations of the former president is unjust and a witch hunt, that they don’t want any laws. What are they hiding? What laws have they broken or want to evade? If this was a Democratic President they would be applauding. I’m beginning to think the Republican Party I once trusted is turning into hateful renegades who want to end all laws, create violence against our fellow Americans, stage war, and divisiveness.
I’m more petrified of how the Republicans and supporters of former President Trump talk of civil war. Talk of getting rid of laws and some rights from the rest of us they don’t believe in. Tell us how to live, and who to believe in. Talk of violence all over a man. Just a man who is not above the law!
Road concrete needs to be repaired
Yes, sir. You know I wonder when they’re going to do something about the rise of concrete on Green Bay Road. They put a sign up there and it says bump. All summer that’s sitting there and then go up there on 41 and Grand Avenue, somebody’s going to get killed. There’s a drop in the pavement like you wouldn’t believe. I can’t believe this has been going on.

Trump investigations are witch hunts
I hope you think this, but this crap that’s going on with former President Trump is nothing but a witch hunt, another witch hunt. Every other president, and any other administrative person that’s ever been to the White House, has taken articles and nothing’s ever been said. The little weasel, the little librarian who was under Obama is the one that’s out there snickering and snitching on Trump, but they have nothing. They have absolutely nothing on Trump, but they’re going to do everything possible to keep them from running. So, the mole in Mar-a-Lago is the little librarian, some sniveling male mole.
Freedom of religion
America has rules based on the Constitution. Freedom of religion doesn’t mean freedom from religion, nor freedom of any specific religion, nor mandatory to have a religion. Attack on Salman Rushdie is prime example of that freedom. Don’t like that rule? Move or don’t come here at all!
Mystery of nuclear codes
I have it under good authority that the raid on Donald Trump’s house was because he had the nuclear codes, but don’t fear it was a very long number with a lot of letters in it that Donald Trump had memorized when he did his cognitive tests. They gave the same test to Biden and the only number that Biden could repeat was zero. You know, like zero inflation last month. So, the nuclear code is now 19 letters long, letters and numbers long, but they’re all zero, so just say zero 19 times.
You Tribune clowns ruined the weather page, totally destroyed the weather the way it was. Put it back. Your new weather page stinks.
What’s wrong with the Towers?
What is going on with the towers? Yes, I still call it the towers because that’s what it was when I lived there, when people respected each other. It wasn’t perfect but it’s nothing like it is now. What is going on with the towers? Mayor, what is going on in your town? What are you going to do about this problem? These people should not have to sit out on the street because of your slumlords taking their money from HUD and not paying bills. They should sue the city and the slumlord.
