Since Elon Musk bought Twitter, he has released six separate dumps of internal emails saying Twitter was a tool of the FBI and Democratic National Committee to censor conservative news and opinion, to shadow-ban and to remove users who posed a threat to their Marxist agenda. And there is not one newspaper in America that has covered the so-called Twitter files. When the government controls the press, you have only propaganda and you are well on your way to one-party rule by the Democrat Communist Party.

I’m commenting on Mayor Lori Lightfoot giving grants of $250,000 for a couple to invest in a wine and cheese shop in a low-income area. Whole Foods didn’t work in a low-income area, I doubt a wine and cheese shop will. However, making a grant means you don’t have to pay it back. It’s a gift. What control is there over this? Whenever you have construction in a private loan, there’s progress payments as the work is being done. There should be definitely controls over giving amounts of money and it should be monitored. This seems to me like you’re trying to buy votes.

It is really important to know if Hunter Biden is a good artist or not. I’m so glad someone wrote in to Speak Out telling everyone how really bad he is. If Joe Biden runs for president again, everyone will have to decide if they should vote for a man whose son is a bad artist.

I wonder how many of the Trumpers who believed that Mexico would pay for the wall and think the election was stolen are paying $99 to buy his digital trading cards. What a con artist, how can anyone take that guy seriously?

Hey Tony, it is nice to know, as you referenced, the greatest president in your lifetime was the 44th, who was Barack Obama. That helps depict the criminal Trump as he is, a larger than life loser. His latest crime boss directive to his lunatic followers is telling them on his struggling social media site that the FBI and Department of Justice thugs need to be dealt with. This is the same violent directive he gave to his insurrection mob on Jan 6, just as a crime boss would do.
