Quote III

“Because the second things get intense, the second the other side really unleashes and starts yelling so loudly that you can’t think clearly, I want a leader who can still think clearly.”Tucker Carlson

Quote IV

As I’ve told people, you’re gonna call Elvis the King? The King in my song has a thorny crown. And only Jesus had a thorny crown. I think I was very clear about that.

Another day, another incompetent bureaurcrat.

Florida child welfare agency said the kids were doing fine. Actually, they were dead

On April 13, 2022, at exactly 6:09 p.m., a child welfare investigator assigned to the case of Miami mother Odette Joassaint entered a benign-sounding note into the Florida Department of Children and Families’ computer system.

“She reports that everything is fine.”

The “she” referred to Joassaint, 41, a mother of three who had been entangled with the department for years due to persistent reports of domestic violence and poor parenting.

Of Joassaint’s 3-year-old son, Jeffry, the investigator offered this reassuring image: “He likes to play, laugh, and grab things.” Referring to Jeffry’s older sister, 6-year-old Laura, the narrative read: “She is a quiet child [who] is well-behaved.”

Actually, as of the day before, Joassaint had been in the Miami-Dade County Jail and Laura and Jeffry were in the morgue. Police had arrived at the mother’s home on Northeast 75th Street to find the children hogtied and strangled. Their mother told officers the children were better off that way.

Place Where Biden Face-Planted Off Bike Is Named 'Brandon Falls' On Google Maps

The place where Joe Biden face planted into the concrete falling off his bike last month has been named as ‘Brandon Falls’ on Google Maps.

What a gushing piece of journalism. However, will this SUV tow an enclosed trailer with a couple of snowmobiles or UTVs while on vacation in Montana?

Few automakers have committed more to the transition from internal combustion to all-electric vehicles than General Motors. And it’s rapidly ramping up its product rollout with the debut of the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV.

The battery-powered version of the familiar Blazer SUV has some unusual features that, Chevy hopes, will help it appeal to both performance and mainstream buyers.

While it got off to a slow start, GM is rapidly accelerating the rollout of its battery-electric lineup. We’ve gotten to see products as diverse as the big GMC Hummer EV pickup and the Cadillac Lyriq SUV over the last 12 months. Now, the automaker is taking aim at the heart of the automotive market with the debut of the Chevrolet Blazer EV.

If the name is familiar to you, no surprise there — the gas-powered Blazer is one of the most popular models in the midsize SUV market. It’s also no surprise GM decided to retain that badge as it shifts from internal combustion to battery propulsion.

Some people are easy to please. Including our Genius Award Winner.

During a police standoff in North Providence, Rhode Island on Wednesday, July 13, 2022, the shooting suspect and his spouse got three hot wieners.

According to the Providence Journal, a woman named Rachel Lombardi was assaulted in her home by an acquaintance. The police say the fight was allegedly caused by a "drug incident," although it's unclear whether that's true, or an assumption based on the fact that one of the suspects was charged with cocaine possession back in May. Anyway, Lombardi's husband, Gino Rotundo, returned home, and called up the alleged assaulting acquaintance, asking him to come back to the house that afternoon so they could talk it out.
