RFK Jr. should be FIRED or RESIGN immediately. PREDICTABLY: He’s STILL rubbing elbows with anti-vaxxers and lifting the same conspiracy theories that are getting kids killed.

VICTORY: MLB will no longer consider Grand Teton National Park for a baseball stadium. We are grateful that Major League Baseball heard the roar of the crowd and rightfully recognized that Grand Teton is already a field of dreams.

grandpa is talking crazy about the TV again
Why does FoxNews always put Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Jessica Tarlov, and every Democrat on, saying bad things about the Republican Party and, of course, me? I actually think they get more airtime than Pro Republicans. This is why MAGA, and REAL Patriots, will never like Fox! They repeat a completely negative narrative, on and on it goes, and then we get a quick retort. It’s truly amazing that I won all three Elections. The opposition is enormous, but the fight goes on!
