I normally am totally fine with the current president being on another extended vacation from destroying the country, but when this supposed leader can only muster a “no comment” when asked about the fires and death and destruction in Maui, we all should be enraged.
The optics of him and his overly privileged family sunning themselves while one of our country’s treasures is in ruins, speaks volumes on the fraud of the whole “Scranton Joe” everyman myth that he and his media shills have been portraying for years.
His mouthpieces can attempt to clean up the mess and offer false platitudes and laughably only $700 (while sending billions and billions to Ukraine) is beyond the pale even for this crew.
The true judge of a person’s character is not when things are going good, but when they are not and this never-worked-a-real-job phony once again showed his real core.

As long as the powers that be in Boston continue to enable the drug addicts on Mass and Cass nothing is going to change. In my opinion it is time for tough love. You can not help someone who does not want to be helped. They need to be given 24 hours to move off of Mass and Cass or the entire enclave will be bulldozed away. The people who are paying for the lax response are the Roxbury families who can not safely use the playground at Clifford Park. These are the legal residents of Roxbury and it is completely unacceptable how they are being treated. The mayor and city council are only showing their disregard for the citizens of Boston.

Something I thought I’d never see, a Jeff Robbins column that finally admitted the truth about a fellow Democrat. He’s come to realize Hunter Biden is responsible for his own reprehensible behavior. Soon you will find out that his dad is complicit. Why else would the multi-millions of dollars they got go through so many evasive measures for the family of the big guy? if properly investigated forensically, the buck is going to stop at Joe, you can make book on that! After all, he’s running a banana republic, jailing his opponents to silence them!

During the 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump proclaimed that he might not accept Hillary Clinton’s victory. This was well before the COVID pandemic and electoral changes made to accommodate that emergency. This is premeditation. He prevailed over Clinton but dusted his plan off when he lost to Joe Biden. Psychology is a wonderful discipline and will accommodate all manner of twists and turns in the human psyche, but it is hardly infallible. If a massive ego tells you his plan not to lose before any “proof” of electoral fraud is adduced, perhaps we should believe him. The plan to defy our Constitution that then Vice President Mike Pence describes is all part of the Trump idea to defraud our country.
