The Quotes of The Day

Quote I

"The Gag Order wrongfully silences the leading candidate for President of the United States, President Trump, at the height of his campaign. The Gag Order applies only to President Trump and not to any of his political opponents, critics, or even Crooked Joe Biden," Steven Cheung, Trump campaign spokesman


Quote II

"There was some sort of mechanical error, and we had to come up through the emergency capsule, so me and the kids came up, and we are still waiting for my husband," Brynn Cicippio.

Well said. Best Tweet of The Day.

I have been criticized by some for sharing these
@POTUS
Biden videos which appear almost every day. I have read numerous articles which somehow suggest that the camera angle, the duration of the clip or some form of right wing manipulation explains Biden’s behavior on camera......

Man accidentally shoots self in Kroger parking lot, then parolee friend flees with gun

BANGOR TWP, MI — A parolee has been jailed following a shooting in the parking lot of a Bay County grocery store. Not because the man pulled the trigger, as the wounded man did that himself, but because he allegedly took the gun and ran off with it.

“There were a lot of bad decisions made in a short amount of time,” Bay County Sheriff Troy R. Cunningham said of the situation.

That was almost a Quote of The Day there Sheriff Troy R. Cunningham.

Fugitive's Phone Betrays His Hideout

In a twist of fate that seems straight out of a comedic caper, a wanted man's attempt at eluding law enforcement was foiled by his own cell phone. The Polk County Sheriff's Office in Florida encountered what could have been a challenging search, had it not been for the fugitive's ringing phone that led them directly to his unusual hiding spot.

The individual, who had been evading capture due to outstanding warrants, chose an unconventional place to hide: the ceiling of his workplace. It's unclear how long he planned to stay holed up there, but destiny—and his cell phone—had other plans. As deputies scoured the premises, the unmistakable sound of a ringing phone pierced through the silence, acting as an unwitting beacon that guided them straight to him.
