Someone demanded the pretender come front and center, and what he said is being discussed around the clock.  It wasn’t the best move, considering that it reinforced what everybody knows.  Maybe hiding wasn’t such a bad idea.  His own Do J released a report saying that he was guilty of a crime alright, but he’s such a kindly and forgetful old man that he’d be too sympathetic.  Whatever.  Meanwhile the mainstream is prosecuting Donald Trump on every front.  Not too successfully so far.

The tractors are blocking major thoroughfares across Europe.  They’ve figured out that everybody is going to starve if they follow these global warming mandates.  Not only that, there are all kinds of regulations, and have you seen the price of diesel?  You don’t see it on your television news.  No, they don’t want us to see what they’ve got in store for us.  Europe is ahead of the U. S. with this global warming theory.  Depending on the country, they’re seeking other means for power.  The windmills were never going to power cities, but who knew they’d be more trouble than they were worth?

So let’s get this straight.  We’ve got to send $60 billion to Ukraine in order to protect our southern border?  That’s right.  Apparently we can’t manage our border unless we send money to Ukraine.  Lots of it.  This is getting to be a habit.  Attach something everybody wants to something even bigger, that few continue to support.  The claim is we can’t do anything about the invasion without sending three times as much to Ukraine.  Oh yes, the bill contains “immediate solutions.”  

Tucker Carlson just interviewed Vladimir Putin at length.  Putin put on an extended history monologue, and Tucker became frustrated, thinking he was filibustering.  But Tucker says he has a point, after all.  Stand by for the fallout.  Putin asked a question we’ve been asking.  Why is the U. S. funding the protection of Ukraine’s border, while being invaded on its southern border.

It looks like the State of Texas has taken things into its own hands.  The Border Patrol, it turns out, doesn’t want to see us invaded any more than we do.  The pretender’s strategy hasn’t a chance.  So there are razor wire rolls six deep, and the cartels have re-routed the “migrants” to points West.  Have fun California!  Have you seen the blight?

By now everybody has seen the “migrants” arrested in New York.  They were busy kicking a cop while he was down, pounding another, rampaging like animals.  But New York, in its wisdom, let them go.  Some church-sponsored outfit has given them a free bus ride to California, where they’ll be welcome.  Or maybe they’re just trying to get close to the border in case they have to make a run for it.

They’re trying to put border security and money for Ukraine together.  You can’t have one without the other.  WHAT?  No nation on earth allows what is going on at our southern border.  But here they come, to get unknown benefits, cell phones and a bus ride to the destination of their choice.  Airline travelers have been noticing that the illegals get to bypass security, while we take off our shoes and submit to an X-ray.  

Now that seemingly every company has to hire on the basis of DEI, there are going to be a lot of accidents.  Who put on the door of the Alaska Airliner that blew off?  I’ve got suspicions.  If every company has to hire on the basis of fairness and equity, what kind of world will it be?  Personally, I like the door of the airplane to be bolted down.

John Kerry has made a career of being angry about global warming.  He comes with this dour look on his face, telling us what a horrible future we have if we don’t give up the luxuries.  A lawsuit has been filed over the secrecy of his staff and what they’re paid by the government.  Presumably we’ll find out.  What a tangled web!

We seem to have the next thing to open battle about the border.  The Texas governor has invoked the word invasion, which gives him special authorities.  You’ve seen the video from the border.  Everything is working like a clock.  Until the governor orders razor wire strung, then we have to have federal agents cutting the wire to let the immigrants take advantage of the system they’ve set up.  It looks like a clash.  The Supreme Court ruled that the feds can cut the fencing, but didn’t say a word about Texas continuing to spool it out.  This story is not over.

The FBI has new standards for hiring, and they’re not what they used to be.  Apparently they’re hiring based on DEI standards, so some candidates are not what you’d expect.  Maybe these DEI standards are going to put everybody out of business. 

You’ve heard about the door on the Alaska Airlines jet?  Good thing it blew out at low altitude, or they’d have had a much bigger problem on their hands.  All a company has to do is get on board with the new standards!  If that puts a manufacturer out of business, oh well.  At least everything was FAIR to who ever didn’t know how to put the door on the plane.  

The prosecutions continue against Donald Trump, and he seems to be making the court appearances.  You can follow them elsewhere.  Apparently he stormed out of court when the judge suggested his lawyer could go to jail.  The judge seems to have determined his guilt ahead of time, speaking up as he has.  Apparently Trump’s in trouble for calling his tormentor a nut job.  She’s accused him of assault, but has plenty of her own baggage.  You’d be hard pressed to find a photograph where she looks normal.  She has other, shall we say, eccentricities.  Trump owes money because he couldn’t resist telling the world that she’s a crazy person.  Who, by the way, doesn’t remember when the offense happened.  

It’s hard to picture, especially when he goes everywhere with an entourage.  Her story requires a good bit of imagination, and then doesn’t sound plausible.  But the judge believes her.  It sounds a lot like the Brett Kavanaugh story, in that nobody remembers anything.  It’s the accusation that counts.

Meanwhile we’re supposed to be excited about the next presidential election.  Poor old Joe.  He can’t make a public appearance without embarrassing himself.  Can you stand to watch?  It’s difficult.

The Australian Airline flight attendants are wearing “Free Palestine” buttons.  Don’t they watch the news?  Or maybe they’re not watching i24.  Surely they wouldn’t ally themselves with the crazy monsters who committed the massacre?  Oh, but the Arabs have complaints!  It’s OK to feel sorry for them, but they didn’t receive the upbringing you did.  They don’t have the same thought processes or empathy that westerners do.  Maybe that’s something we should figure out.  People from elsewhere don’t have the same reactions we do.

Truckers are on their way to Texas.  It will no doubt spawn lawsuits galore.  In Canada the courts ruled that the actions they took against truckers were unconstitutional.  And that’s with Canada’s constitution!  We’ll have to see what happens when the truckers arrive at the border in Texas.  Right now it looks like Joe Biden, or his handlers, have decided that the border is the place for a showdown.  Why wouldn’t Americans want millions of these non-English speaking “refugees” squatting everywhere?  It’s being cast as empathy for whoever is crossing illegally.  Since the buses started rolling, it seems everybody’s in the same boat.  Nobody wants unemployed, destitute people who don’t speak the language and are surviving on our dime sleeping on the streets.  In a lot of cases, they’re putting them up in big city hotels.  You think those rooms will ever be the same?

But poor ole Joe doesn’t know anything is wrong.  Why, he’s been the best president in ages!

That’s got to be what they’re telling him.  He’s doing a great job.  No one will ever forget.  It seems like the second coming of Jimmy Carter, only worse.
