For today's show, I wanted to catch up on a handful of news items I collected throughout the week. The first item is a threat from Dave Rubin of the Rubin Report, detailing a two-day visit to Twitter. Having been in the IT industry for many years before my career change, I understand the issues Musk is facing. I also understand users of the tool lack that understanding coupled with having no patience. The code underlying Twitter has been kludged from so many people and in so many different ways, it's not something that can be fixed overnight. Sometimes it will run better and some days, one fix will end up breaking something else. We have to give them time to get Twitter sorted out properly.
Next is an item I found jaw-dropping. Thanks to the protracted conflict we are helping to fund in our proxy war with Russia via Ukraine, it seems Joe Biden's Afghanistan debacle just got even worse. Vladimir Putin is in negotiation with the Taliban to buy some of the billions of dollars in equipment we abandoned in our disastrous retreat. State-of-the-art US equipment may not be used by Russia to fight the country we are supposedly wanting to win. It's bananas!
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) is requesting a classified briefing over the content ot the classified documents retrieved thus far from Joe Biden's home and private office. Cruz wants to make sure none of the content matches up with emails or conversations Hunter Biden had regarding Burisma, Ukraine or energy policy in that part of the world. This goes along with my show from earlier this week when I asked, did Hunter have access to Joe Biden's classified information?
In true Schiff-show fashion, Adam Schiff took to the CCP owned social media platform, TikTok, to cry about being kicked off of the House Intelligence Committee. Could have done anything worse to validate Speaker McCarthy's fears than to use the one tool the government has banned it's employees from using? And, at the end of the video, Schiff asks for money. Turns out, on the heels of making his whining video, he's decided he wants to run for the US Senate.
In a related topic, I play a sound bite from White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and you will be surprised, I agree with her! She said Schiff, Swalwell and Omar have a lot of expertise. Correct! Their expertise in lying, cheating and demonstration poor judgment is hard to top.
Governor Ron DeSantis weighed in on the debate over who should chair the RNC. Much like your host, he believes a change is necessary. Rona McDaniel has had three failing election cycles (plus two failed run-off cycles) and should not be rewarded with returning as the head of the RNC. And, like DeSantis, I would much prefer to see Harmeet Dhillon in that position.
I then move on to a soundbite of Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) interviewing a judge for an appointment to the appellate court system. Her inability to answer basic questions about our Constitution should scare us all. We are not teaching American Civics anymore and the Ivory Tower of higher education would prefer it’s graduates are more familiar with Marx and Lenin, than our own Founding Fathers.
Finally, to end on a lighter note, my buddy, Jim Gossett, who is a parody artists and a wonderful satirist, put out a song dedicated to both Schiff and Swalwell. Set to an immediately recognizable tune from Old Blue Eyes, Gossett issues a fond farewell to the two disgraced, former member of the House Intel Committee.
