“Somebody shorted the oil markets today by hundreds of millions of dollars exactly 20 minutes before Trump made his announcement that everything was going to be great. And if you see that once, it could be a coincidence. But that’s happened at least 3x… a pattern.” The most corrupt regime ever.

Thinking about the East wing of the White House, I wonder how obsessed Presidents Biden, Obama, Bush and Clinton and their First Wives were about having a $240,000,000 ballroom. It’s bad enough all the gold paint and gold fixtures splashed around as if Trump were Napoleon?

We blame Joe Biden because he was the last link in the chain and because it’s safer than coming to terms with the reality. And because Biden is fading while the reality endures. It’s safer to lay the blame at his feet.

I watched MSNBC almost exclusively for opinion. As I look back on it I realize how smug pundits were who inhabit those channels like MSNBC. I really believed that I was getting the “real” truth, but it all crumbled to earth on November 5th. I no longer watch cable news, it’s just a vast wasteland.

Good to see that President Biden pardoned his Son. It Is a thumb in Trump’s eye as I am certain that Hunter’s legal misfortunes would have been shouted out throughout MAGA world until even the MAGAs would be tired of it.
